Chapter 54: Dong Qingxue
Chapter 54 — Dong Qingxue
In a huge control room.
Dong Qingxue sat in front of a table with her head lowered as she flipped through some documents.
Her well-tailored dark blue uniform accentuated her perfect figure. Her slender legs were slightly crossed under the table. Even though they were wrapped in long pants, they were still as beautiful as a painting.
Across from Dong Qingxue, in front of a large display screen and numerous buttons, a slender and handsome young man held a cup of coffee in his hand. As he admired the scene in front of him, he sighed from the bottom of his heart. "What a pleasant and blissful day …"
Dong Qingxue raised her head and looked at the young man, whose epaulet had only one less star than hers. Her slender brows furrowed into beautiful lines on her pretty face.
"If you're really free, please come over and help me review the documents … Major Qin Shaojun."
The young man took a sip of his coffee and laughed. He avoided her gaze as he said, "I'm busy, Lieutenant Colonel Qingxue. Besides, you're the main person in charge of the Prodigy Training Camp this time. I'm just a temporary assistant."
Dong Qingxue stared at the young man for a while. In the end, she had no choice but to give up. The young man was known for his laziness. Besides, she was the one who had forced him to come and help this time.
Dong Qingxue shook her head and continued flipping through the thick documents in her hand.
The young man took a few sips of coffee. Perhaps he was bored, so he glanced over slowly. His eyes scanned the documents scattered on the table casually as he asked, "How is it? How's the quality of this year's Prodigy Training Camp?"
"Not good." Dong Qingxue shook her head and said calmly, "There are only eight people in total who can be considered seedlings that meet our standards. All of them are official martial artists who have awakened their talents. Five of them are average. They only awakened the most common strength-type talents. The other three …"
Dong Qingxue picked out three documents from the pile and tossed them to the young man.
"One of them is a speed-type talent and the other is a defense-type talent. Both of them have reached the standard of a Level 2 Martial Artists. This one is the most outstanding …"
Dong Qingxue picked out another document from the pile. She pointed at a girl with a determined gaze in the picture and said, "Xia Lin, 17 years and 8 months old. She has awakened her spiritual power less than two years ago. She's close to becoming a Level 1 Spiritual Master. She also has excellent talent in martial arts. She's about to enter Level 2."
"Isn't that good?" The young man exclaimed with an exaggerated expression, "An absolute genius, just like you back then. Her gaze is also very similar to yours. Qingxue, I think this little girl is fated to follow you …"
"Stop fooling around."
Dong Qingxue shook her head, but there was still a hint of emotion in her eyes. She said, "This girl is indeed very good. I've already listed her to be the focus of this training camp."
"The others aren't bad either …" The young man tried to find a document that was pleasing to his eyes from the pile of documents on the table.
After swiping away two of the three documents that Dong Qingxue had picked out, his gaze landed on the first document at the bottom.
"This!"
The young man picked up a document and waved it in front of Dong Qingxue. He smiled and said, "He's handsome enough, just like me. And he's outstanding in every aspect, too. His BQV has reached the standard of a Level 2 Martial Artist. His combat power … Fuck!
“Perfection Realm Fist Technique, combat power comparable to a Level 3 Martial Artist … How could you throw away such a good seedling? Qingxue, when did your standards become so high?"
Dong Qingxue shook her head and said, "I know which one you're talking about. This Lu Sheng was also one of the first-tier seeds that I've chosen. He's even comparable to Xia Lin. However, I took him out later. You should know why, Shaojun."
Dong Qingxue looked into the Shaojun’s eyes. The exaggerated shock on the young man's face faded bit by bit. Finally, he calmed down.
"I know. It's because of his talent."
"Yes, it's because of his talent."
Dong Qingxue nodded and said, "The upper limit of a strength-type talent is too low. It's indeed terrifying in the early stages. Under the augmentation of divine power, a Level 1 or Level 2 awakened strength-type talents can unleash combat power in the tens of thousands or even several tens of thousands.
“However! Once they reach the later stages, the little boost in strength brought by their talent will be useless against a Level 6 or Level 7 Martial Artist's huge BQV. In the end, they'll just fade into the crowd …"
The young man remained silent.
Just as Dong Qingxue had said, strength-type talents would only bring a small advantage to martial artists in the later stages of martial arts until it was negligible. A Level 6 Martial Artist's BQV exceeded 1,000, and a Level 7 Master’s BQV exceeded 10,000 …
One could just imagine. Under the surging BQV of a Master who had a million point in CPI, how much of a boost in strength could add to their abilities?
A Master could easily comprehend skills and technique that would be more useful than these types of talents.
On the other hand, the few people that Dong Qingxue had picked out. There was nothing much to be said about Xai Lin, as a Spiritual Master, she was a treasure wherever she went.
As for the other two, one was a speed-type talent and the other was a defense-type talent.
These two talents were very useful in the later stages of martial arts.
The speed-type talent could easily break the speed of sound in the later stages. The defense-type talent was equivalent to one cultivating to full-mastery in parallel martial arts. It was so powerful that some Master Martial Artists of the same level.
Therefore, although strength-type talent displayed by these two students were not as good as that student named Lu Sheng.
However, Qin Shaojun was almost certain that in ten or twenty years, the achievements these two would have in martial arts would far surpass Lu Sheng.
This was an ironclad rule that had been summed up by countless experiences and examples over the past 300 years of martial arts.
There were no exceptions.
