Chapter 249: 169, Amazing everyone with powerful spiritual power_3
Everyone was shocked, including Instructor Lu Tianrong.
Whether it was Liu Ruihe or Shen Qinghan, the reason for their high spiritual strength was partly due to their innate talent in spiritual power, and partly because they had merged with the genes of Exotic Beasts related to spiritual power.
But Lin Zichen had taken the Pureblood Human Path and had never merged with any Exotic Beast Gene.
So the question arose, how could his spiritual strength be so high?
Normally, having a spiritual strength that was one-third of one's Biological Level was already quite impressive.
Yet Lin Zichen's spiritual strength matched his own Biological Level.
It was like seeing a ghost in broad daylight!
After regaining his composure a bit, Lu Tianrong immediately took out his mobile phone and called the military region's leadership to inform them of what was happening here.
After listening to his report, a series of incredulous voices came from the other end of the phone.
Then, the leader said they would come over immediately to have a look.
When they said they would come over immediately, they meant it.
Not even half a minute later, the leader arrived.
It was the striking female military officer with short, efficient hair—Commander Yao.
Yuan Dongzhi came along with her.
"Everyone make some room, clear a spot for Commander Yao and the others."
Lu Tianrong shouted to the people gathered around the Spirit Cabin.
The few standing right in front of the Spirit Cabin heard this and immediately made room for Yuan Dongzhi and the female officer to come forward.
Yuan Dongzhi and the female officer didn't say much; they walked briskly to the front of the Spirit Cabin and stopped.
When they saw the number 8 on the display screen, shock filled their faces in an instant; they thought they were dreaming.
Especially Yuan Dongzhi, who had an expression of utter disbelief plastered across his face.
In the past six months, Lin Zichen's strength had time and again shattered her perceptions, frequently catching her off guard.
Honestly, she was beginning to doubt whether Lin Zichen was from Earth at all.
Which normal Earthling could ever progress this rapidly?
Almost changing day by day, growing stronger by the day, it looked like playing a game with a cheat code enabled, able to modify data at will.
"Dongzhi, are all those who take the Pureblood Human Path this strong?"
The female officer didn't know much about the Pureblood Human Path, thinking Lin Zichen's spiritual strength was so high because he practiced the Blood Tempering Technique.
Yuan Dongzhi said, "Not at all, it's only him. Others who take the Pureblood Human Path don't have such high spiritual strength; they're all at the level of ordinary people."
"Then what's the deal with him?"
"I'm not sure either."
Yuan Dongzhi shook her head, feeling completely mystified.
Both taking the Pureblood Human Path, both with an Ordinary Ninth Rank Biological Level.
Liu Chuanwu, who was almost a hundred years old, didn't even have spiritual strength as high as Lin Zichen, only reaching an Ordinary Seventh Rank.
For someone with an Ordinary Ninth Rank Biological Level who had not undergone Genetic Fusion, having a spiritual strength of an Ordinary Seventh Rank was already quite an exaggeration.
The reason Liu Chuanwu's spiritual strength reached an Ordinary Seventh Rank was entirely because of his age; he had lived almost a hundred years, grinding it out year after year.
Conversely, Song Yuyan, also on the Pureblood Human Path but younger, currently had only an Ordinary Fourth Rank in spiritual strength.
And an even younger Lin Zichen, logically, should have a spiritual strength of at most an Ordinary Third Rank right now.
However, Lin Zichen had an Ordinary Eighth Rank spiritual strength!
This was almost equal to his own Biological Level!
It was simply inconceivable!
...
Before long.
Lin Zichen came out of the Spirit Cabin.
Everyone looked at him as if he were a monster, with eyes full of unusual gazes.
They had never seen such an exaggerated prodigy.
If this prodigy couldn't speak human language, they would have suspected he was an Exotic Beast in human skin.
Seeing Lin Zichen emerge from the Spirit Cabin, Yuan Dongzhi didn't beat around the bush and directly asked, "Zi Chen, how is your spiritual strength so high?"
Lin Zichen had already thought of an explanation in advance while he was in the Spirit Cabin.
He answered calmly, "I've liked mathematics since I was young, often pondering various difficult math problems, always winning awards in math competitions, with plenty of first places. Could it have something to do with that?"
Whether Yuan Dongzhi believed it or not was her business; that was how he explained it anyway.
Although the explanation was far-fetched, it at least had some relevance and could indeed explain to a certain extent.
Spiritual power is related to the brain, and doing math problems requires thinking, which improves spiritual power; it was reasonable.
Yuan Dongzhi also knew that doing math problems could help improve spiritual power.
But, no matter how much it improved, it couldn't possibly reach the level of an Ordinary Eighth Rank.
Bear in mind, spiritual strength at the level of an Ordinary Eighth Rank was beyond many advanced powerhouses.
Just doing math problems could raise one's spiritual power to such a height?
What a joke!
Yuan Dongzhi considered many possibilities, and the only explanation she could come up with in the end was that Lin Zichen had an extremely astonishing talent in the area of spiritual power.
Simply by doing math problems, he could enhance a "large amount" of spiritual power.
Otherwise, there was no way to explain why Lin Zichen's spiritual strength was so high.
Thinking this, Yuan Dongzhi said to Lin Zichen, "Zi Chen, come with me. I'd like to have a thorough discussion with you about spiritual power."
Lin Zichen was used to it; he said nothing and silently followed her out of the special training room.
Shen Qinghan, seeing this, stood up and hurriedly followed.
