From Abyssal Invasion to Bursting Stars with a Single Sword

At this stage, the first-tier Superpower Users have levels above 35, with Peak Superpower Users reaching level 40.

These two profiles' Source Energy Levels are not outstanding.

Level 34 is not bad; the gap isn't big, but it's quite large for level 30.

However, if the potential is good, it's not out of the question to recruit and train them.

Lu Heng opened the two profiles and, after reading them, his eyes lit up instantly.

Jian Qing noticed Lu Heng's interest in these two profiles and asked, "Neither level is particularly high, which one caught your eye? The level 34 one is okay if we give him a team, his level should be able to increase quickly."

Actually, Source Energy Level is the easiest to improve among many combat power factors as long as enough resources are provided.

Other factors, such as Talent, Skill, Class, are harder to obtain.

Chen Zihang also looked at the two profiles and said, "This level 34 one is indeed not bad. Although the level is a bit low, the overall combat power is still acceptable."

Lu Heng looked at both with a smile and pointed at the second profile, "But the one I'm interested in is this one."

The Superpower Soldier in the second profile was named Luo Yuncheng, with a Source Energy Level of 30, a First Transition Class of Fighter, a Second Transition Class of Lawbreaker, and no Third Transition Class yet, but he had already absorbed the Third Transition Origin Quality of a Void Hunter.

Jian Qing looked at the second profile with furrowed brows, "This Luo Yuncheng's Class trajectory seems a bit off. The First and Second Transition Classes are manageable, but the Third Transition path has deviated."

Indeed, that was the case.

Luo Yuncheng's Class trajectory did have an issue. The First Transition Class of Fighter, which is a melee type with strong overall capabilities.

If not for Lu Heng's interruption, in the future there would have been a Peak Superpower User known by the nickname "Storm Boxing King," whose First Transition Class was Fighter.

Lu Heng had faced off against the Fighter Class, so he knew it was strong.

However, simply mixing together all the strong Classes does not create the strongest combination.

For instance, Fighter and Void Hunter do not match.

Because the Void Hunter pertains to a remote attack Class, while the Fighter is melee.

The abilities of the two Classes, melee and remote, do not complement each other.

Of course, there are Power Users who choose a Class trajectory that mixes both ranged and melee, allowing for remote attack capabilities and melee capabilities when an opponent closes in.

This kind of Class trajectory seems feasible, but in actual combat, it often doesn't perform well.

When facing specialized remote attack Classes, the combined long and short range Class trajectory can be suppressed by ranged firepower.

Of course, in such situations, Power Users that combine both ranges can choose to charge into their opponent's melee range to suppress them with close combat.

However, these combined ranged and melee Power Users have already invested part of their skills in remote attacks, so their charging abilities aren't very prominent and might not be successful.

Moreover, once they face melee Superpower Users, they may be suppressed due to insufficient melee abilities.

If they are lone wolf-type Power Users, a combined ranged and melee Class trajectory is possible, exemplifying a jack of all trades and acting as a one-person team, but not excelling in any specific ability.

In a mature team, these kinds of Power Users have no advantages.

Simply put, a team of five mixed-type Power Users, when facing a five-person team with clearly defined Class roles, gets completely crushed.

In military formations, synergistic combat is prized.

Each Superpower Soldier is responsible for a specific combat task, each with clear positioning, working in cooperation, each role performing optimally, and such are the strongest teams.

Therefore, Luo Yuncheng's Class trajectory had a problem.

The reason Lu Heng was interested in this Luo Yuncheng was for no other reason than the name rang a bell.

In his memory, this Luo Yuncheng would be known in the Superpower circles by the nickname "Fighting God," a peak-level juggernaut on par with Jian Qing.

However, Lu Heng was also curious as to why Luo Yuncheng had absorbed a Void Hunter in the Third Transition Origin Quality.

It clearly was a remote attack Class and mismatched with the Fighter.

Moreover, Luo Yuncheng from his memory had never displayed any abilities of the Void Hunter Class.

Of course, Lu Heng's impression of Luo Yuncheng was primarily based on rumors within the Superpower User community; he had never crossed paths with him, therefore he was unsure whether Luo had acquired the "Void Hunter" Class.

However, according to Lu Heng's experience, a Superpower User capable of reaching the pinnacle wouldn't likely make a poor choice in their Class path.

Moreover, within the Third Transition Class ranks, there was a very important Class known as "Martial Artist."

The prerequisite for the "Martial Artist" Class was the "Fighter" Class.

This meant that if Luo Yuncheng had chosen "Void Hunter" for his Third Transition Class, he would have been unable to pursue the "Martial Artist" Class.

However, since Luo Yuncheng was able to become a Peak Superpower User, renowned alongside Jian Qing in his previous life, he must have had extraordinary qualities.

Such a Superpower User with immense potential, if willing to join the Special Forces, would be a significant asset.

"Let's arrange to talk to this Luo Yuncheng. If we ask him directly about his reasoning for choosing this Class path, we'll understand his thoughts," suggested Lu Heng.

Jian Qing nodded in agreement, "Sure, if we ask him, it will be clear."

Consequently, the military headquarters sent Luo Yuncheng an interview notice.

The next morning.

Luo Yuncheng arrived at the Dragon Power Base, where upon entering, he snapped to attention with a crisp salute.

"Reporting! Staff Sergeant Luo Yuncheng reporting for duty!"

"Sit," Jian Qing motioned towards a chair.

Luo Yuncheng walked with measured steps to the chair, sat down after removing his cap and holding it in hand, his posture upright, eyes looking straight ahead, his discipline impeccable.

Lu Heng raised an eyebrow and asked, "Do you know why you were called here?"

Luo Yuncheng replied formally, "I was informed by the military to attend an interview, regarding the newly formed Hidden Dragon Superpower Special Team."

Lu Heng continued, "Have you learned anything about the Hidden Dragon Superpower Special Team?"

Luo Yuncheng shook his head, "I didn't know initially, but I inquired last night and found out it's a Special Forces unit under the Dragon Might Mercenary Group."

Lu Heng posed another question, "If I were to ask you now whether you're willing to join, what would be your response?"

Luo Yuncheng hesitated for two seconds before replying, "I don't wish to, I do not want to leave the military structure."

Lu Heng wasn't angry with the answer and asked further, "What if you were compelled to transfer?"

Luo Yuncheng answered directly, "If it's an order from the military, I will comply with the transfer."

Lu Heng nodded, assessing, "Quite candid. This interview is a two-way selection process, you have the right to refuse, but the process needs to be taken seriously."

"Yes!" Luo Yuncheng responded loudly.

"Next, I want to ask a few questions about your profile. Did you absorb the Third Transition Origin Quality?"

"Yes, I absorbed the Third Transition Origin Quality, named 'Void Hunter,'" Luo Yuncheng nodded in affirmation.

"Why did you choose the 'Void Hunter' Source Material?" Lu Heng inquired further.

"Because in the last Abyss Battlefield, I encountered a very dangerous combat situation that required this Source Material Ability to resolve the crisis, and I had to absorb it," Luo Yuncheng answered truthfully.

Lu Heng and Jian Qing exchanged a glance, then Lu Heng asked, "What's your evaluation of the 'Void Hunter' Class?"

Luo Yuncheng had pondered this question many times, so he could immediately respond, "The Class itself is quite good, but it does not integrate well with my other Skills and Classes."

After listening, Lu Heng developed another idea and asked, "Currently, you've only absorbed the 'Void Hunter' Source Material and have not fused it into a Class, so it can be separated, albeit painfully. Have you considered extracting this Source Material?"

Upon hearing this question, Luo Yuncheng fell silent for a long time before nodding, "I have considered removing it, but I am unable to do it myself."

Lu Heng reflected for a moment then inquired, "If I can help you extract the Source Material, would you be willing to join the Special Forces?"

Luo Yuncheng replied bluntly, "If that's the condition of exchange, I am not willing."

Finding this man intriguing, Lu Heng asked directly, "What would it take for you to willingly join the Special Forces?"

Luo Yuncheng thought for a while before answering, "I wish to be in a team where I can maximize my value."
