Chapter 28: Jiang Han Understands Lin Tianming’s Hand of God Better Than Him! No Wonder She’s His Mentor!
[Could it be that I remembered incorrectly? This child Tianming’s Hand of God can replicate four skills at level 15?]
[No… impossible! The secret of his Hand of God’s skill replication limit was discovered by me through testing! He didn’t even know it himself at first because he hadn’t encountered opponents requiring frequent skill use!]
[This soul attack can’t be replicated. Most likely, just like when he absorbed my Wall of Thunder and learned the skill, he acquired this soul attack through some other opportunity!]
[It’s probably because my rebirth has affected the timeline…]
Jiang Han found a reasonable explanation for herself, making her no longer surprised that Lin Tianming could use a soul attack skill.
However, to confirm her guess, she still needed to test Lin Tianming personally.
“Good child, not bad… not bad! I didn’t expect you to defeat this Thunder Rage Bear at level 15. When it suddenly passed out, I sensed a wave of soul power. Did you defeat it with a soul attack directly hitting its soul?”
Lin Tianming heard Jiang Han’s thoughts.
Today’s interaction made him understand his teacher Jiang Han better.
Jiang Han, worthy of being the youngest top-tier awakened in Kyushu, immediately recognized that he had used a soul attack.
Lin Tianming nodded and replied, “Yes, Teacher Jiang Han, I defeated the Thunder Rage Bear with a soul attack.”
“That direct soul attack skill isn’t replicated, is it? Can you show me?”
Since he had heard her thoughts, Lin Tianming naturally wouldn’t hide it.
Moreover, he wanted to show his sincerity and ask Jiang Han more about the Hand of God’s abilities.
From Jiang Han’s thoughts, it seemed she knew his Hand of God better than he did.
To understand his Hand of God’s abilities at higher levels, he needed to seek guidance from his teacher and improve her opinion of him.
“Hmm, it’s not replicated. This skill is called Spirit Spark. I can use it freely without the Hand of God’s replication limit. Teacher Jiang Han, you are my teacher, feel free to look!”
As he spoke, Lin Tianming flipped his right palm upwards, and a spark formed by soul power rose from his palm.
[He still has the same sweet mouth as in the previous life, making girls happy. So except for some subtle changes in experience, his personality should still be the same scum as in the previous life, right?]
[In the previous life, he won my favor like this, gradually making me lower my guard. After discovering my Heart of Thunder, he harbored malicious intent and harmed me, his mentor…]
Hearing Jiang Han’s thoughts made Lin Tianming’s scalp tingle.
His intention to get along well with her seemed to remind her of the past, making her resent him more.
Original host, look at what you did! You’ve put me in a tough spot!
I am a good person!
Internally lamenting the original host’s misdeeds, Lin Tianming knew that gaining Jiang Han’s true trust required actions, not just words.
Without concrete actions, Jiang Han, who had been betrayed by the original host, would think he was using sweet words to approach her with ill intentions.
Jiang Han watched the Spirit Spark skill in Lin Tianming’s palm for a while and decided to give him some extra training beyond today’s plan.
“Very good, little Tianming. Although I initially said you could pass today by defeating the Thunder Rage Bear, I didn’t expect you to defeat it. I just wanted to use this bear to hone your genius sharpness and make you train harder in the future.”
“Now that you’ve exceeded my expectations, I plan to teach you something else I originally planned to teach you in a few days. Come here, little guy!”
Talking about training Lin Tianming, Jiang Han temporarily forgot the pain he caused her in the previous life.
As if they had never had a falling out, she still taught him with all her heart, just like in the past.
Lin Tianming could sense Jiang Han’s current state of mind through the system’s ability to eavesdrop on thoughts.
This made him even more determined to prove through actions that he wasn’t the original host, the scumbag who betrayed his mentor.
This mentor, who taught him wholeheartedly, was not cherished by the original host.
But Lin Tianming, who crossed over from Blue Star, would cherish this precious relationship!
Following Jiang Han to the still unconscious Thunder Rage Bear, Lin Tianming asked, “Teacher Jiang Han, what are we doing?”
Instead of answering immediately, Jiang Han asked, “Little Tianming, do you know why you could absorb my Wall of Thunder and learn a skill that shouldn’t belong to you?”
“Isn’t it because I’m smart enough to grasp the opportunity you gave us freshmen and learned your Wall of Thunder skill?”
[Pfft! This child is still overconfident, just like in the previous life…]
Jiang Han was amused by Lin Tianming’s response, laughing genuinely for the first time in his presence.
“Silly boy, do you think everyone can learn skills outside their ability category as easily as you?”
Hearing Jiang Han’s term of endearment for him, Lin Tianming was somewhat speechless.
Could she not be consistent in how she addressed him?
Kid, child, little guy, silly boy…
She really treated him like a kid!
He saw she wasn’t much older than him, maybe in her early twenties.
But thinking she was his teacher, it seemed reasonable for her to speak with a generational gap.
With this in mind, Lin Tianming stopped worrying about her patronizing tone.
“Isn’t that the case?”
“Of course not! It seems you don’t understand your Hand of God’s full potential! Today, let me teach you that your Hand of God has more than just the skill replication ability. It has another extraordinary, highly potent ability!”
Hearing Jiang Han say he didn’t understand his Hand of God and that it had other abilities, Lin Tianming was shocked.
Indeed… Teacher Jiang Han, with her rebirth experience, knew more about his Hand of God than he did!
At this moment, Lin Tianming was genuinely curious about the Hand of God’s abilities beyond skill replication.
“Teacher Jiang Han, please teach me. What other abilities does my Hand of God have besides skill replication?”
Smiling, Jiang Han replied, “That ability is plunder. Any skill you successfully plunder, whether or not it suits your abilities, can be freely used. As your level increases, the power of the plundered skills also increases.
The difference between plundering and replication is that plundered skills adapt to your level, becoming as powerful as your current level allows.
As long as you continue to grow stronger, the skills you plunder will have nearly limitless growth potential!”
