#151 - New target: Tremor-Tremor Fruit!

Chapter 151: New Goal: Tremor-Tremor Fruit!

Back in the dorm.

Zhao Zheng was still feeling lingering fear.

He was now almost certain of his previous guess.

Outside the atmosphere, there must be terrifying beings!

Zhao Zheng frowned.

His biggest fear was that those terrifying beings might descend upon Blue Star one day before his strength had grown enough…

That would be troublesome!

But worrying about it now was useless; all he could do was work hard to improve his strength!

Realizing this, Zhao Zheng could only stop thinking about it.

The "Transcendent Perception" skill was much more useful than he had imagined.

With this skill, he could probably avoid many fatal crises.

Afterward.

Zhao Zheng took out his phone and went online.

Unsurprisingly, he and Song Haitang were trending again.

Because the target of their assassination was too shocking!

Any Transcendent who had been to the fourth level of the Spirit Realm knew the weight of the Empress Dowager, and had heard of the terrors of the Imperial Palace.

"Holy crap! Killed the Empress Dowager? Really?"

"That's awesome! How did they do it?"

"What's so surprising about killing an Empress Dowager? Shouldn't the Emperor be the truly powerful one?"

"One look at the comments upstairs and you can tell they're ordinary people who don't know that in the fourth level of the Spirit Realm, the Empress Dowager holds the real power, and the Emperor is just a puppet."

"As far as I know, the Imperial Palace is full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers! The Empress Dowager is a well-known top expert; how did they do it?"

"I heard it's because of their deep accumulation in the fourth level of the Spirit Realm…"

…

Countless netizens were discussing it.

Among these discussions, the number of Transcendent voices was significantly higher, because only they knew the significance of Zhao Zheng and the others taking down the Empress Dowager in the eighth level of the Spirit Realm.

In the evening.

Suddenly, a video went viral online.

In the video, a foreign team of new Transcendent detailed everything Zhao Zheng had done in the eighth level of the Spirit Realm in front of the camera.

It seemed.

There were quite a few Transcendent in the capital at that time.

As soon as this video came out, it attracted the attention of countless Transcendent.

"Really? According to these foreigners, isn't that person who appeared in the capital like a god?"

"Destroying the Imperial City with one palm is too exaggerated, right?"

"I remember that in that world, the highest realm of martial arts is Refining Spirit, right? Could this be a Refining Spirit expert?"

"Impossible! The Empress Dowager is a Refining Spirit expert, and anyone who can kill the Empress Dowager in the Imperial Palace must be a martial arts realm above Refining Spirit."

"There's a realm above Refining Spirit? First time I've heard of it."

"What I'm more curious about is, who did all this?"

"Song Haitang and Zhao Zheng, it must be one of them. The foreigners said it was a man, so Zhao Zheng is more likely."

"It seems that Zhao Zheng is not simple!"

"It's nothing, probably because he accumulated too many Spirit Points in the fourth level of the Spirit Realm, so he was able to build up such a martial arts realm. Of course, being able to do all this is enough to show his strength, but it's a pity he has the Kryptonian talent…"

…

It has to be said.

The release of this video caused many people to focus their attention on Zhao Zheng.

Although the strength Zhao Zheng displayed in the eighth level of the Spirit Realm was entirely the strength of his substitute, without any of the abilities of his true Kryptonian self.

Now many people speculate that Zhao Zheng wants to discover the secrets of the Kryptonian bloodline!

Regarding the information on the Internet.

Zhao Zheng himself was also aware of it.

However, he didn't pay too much attention to it.

As long as that old guy from South Korea doesn't wake up, even if someone thinks he has discovered the secret of the Kryptonian, it can only remain at the stage of speculation.

When no one else gets the Kryptonian bloodline talent among next year's freshmen, then Zhao Zheng will be stable.

Because, two years is enough time for Zhao Zheng's strength to grow to an extremely terrifying level.

By then, he will have the uniqueness of Superman.

The Holy Land will no longer produce Kryptonian bloodline talents!

…

The next day.

Early morning.

Zhao Zheng sat in the classroom, waiting for class to start.

"Ding-ling-ling—"

The class bell rang.

Old Chu walked into the classroom on time.

"Before class starts, I have something to tell everyone."

Old Chu asked with a smile, "None of you have used the points in your student cards, have you?"

The vast majority of students shook their heads.

Only a few students' expressions changed slightly, obviously having used their points to exchange for the supplies provided by the school.

Seeing this, Old Chu said, "It's good that you haven't used them. Three days later, it will be the annual university auction, and your points can be put to good use then."

After a pause, Old Chu added, "Moreover, this year's auction is different from previous years. In the past, it was all done internally within the school. This time, it is led by the Ministry of Education, with universities across the country participating in an online auction at the same time. By then, the Ministry of Education will take out many useful things, even Transcendent items, to reward you!"

Hearing this.

All the students' eyes lit up.

Even Zhao Zheng showed a curious expression.

A student thought of something and immediately raised his hand to ask, "Teacher, what if the point system of other schools is different from ours, or even far more than ours, wouldn't that be very unfair?"

Old Chu said, "Don't worry, the leaders of the Ministry of Education have already thought of this problem, and have also introduced a point exchange mechanism, which uniformly exchanges the different point systems of each school into auction points."

"The exchange entrance is in our school's official website, remember to exchange it into auction points when you get back."

"The auction time will be opened at twelve noon three days later, with bidding in the form of live broadcast."

"Oh, by the way, the auction official website will display some of the items to be auctioned this time. You can take a look in advance. If you encounter something you are interested in, you can focus your points on that item."

"In addition, if you feel that your auction points are not enough, you can also borrow from classmates, provided that the classmate has nothing they want to bid on and is willing to lend…"

…

After class.

The students went to exchange their school points for auction points.

Zhao Zheng also returned to his dormitory, turned on his computer, and logged into the school's official website.

He first checked his student points.

This was the first time he had checked, and found that he actually had more than two thousand points.

The teacher had said before that the composition of student points is fixed monthly points + extra reward points.

Zhao Zheng had always been a student in Class B, and the fixed monthly points were 80 points.

Only more than half a year had passed, and now to have more than two thousand points, the school must have rewarded a lot.

Afterward.

He found the exchange entrance, exchanged his student points for auction points, and according to the prompts, logged into the auction official website.

At this time, there were already many students from all over the country leaving messages in the auction official website.

"There are so many Transcendent items? The Ministry of Education is really bleeding this time!"

"Heh heh, most of them are one-time extraordinary items, not really good stuff..."

"The brother upstairs is so brave! Aren't you afraid of not graduating?"

"Damn! I saw a pair of extraordinary boots that increase speed, I really want them!"

"I want those extraordinary gauntlets that increase strength, don't anyone try to take them from me!"

"What the! How is there even a Tremor-Tremor Fruit? How dare they bring out such a harmful thing for auction?"

"Hahaha, I know about this Tremor-Tremor Fruit, it belongs to a high school classmate of mine. Back then, when he came out of the Holy Land, his face was green."

"Who would spend points to buy a Tremor-Tremor Fruit? Are the leaders trying to be funny by bringing this thing out?"

"No, the Tremor-Tremor Fruit is known as the strongest Paramecia-type Devil Fruit! It's not as bad as you guys say, right?"

"The brother upstairs, about the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, I suggest you search it up online, then you'll know why it's disliked..."

"If you'd brought it out earlier, maybe someone would have been willing to pay for the training to enhance their attributes, but now that so much time has passed, the training effect that this Tremor-Tremor Fruit possessed has probably disappeared, right? It's purely a useless thing now, whoever wants it is an idiot!"

Seeing these comments.

Zhao Zheng was immediately stunned for a moment.

Tremor-Tremor Fruit?

Such a powerful thing could also appear at an auction?

He immediately clicked on the "Auction Items" section and searched inside.

The extraordinary items prepared by the Ministry of Education this time were indeed numerous, but most of them were one-time extraordinary items.

Soon.

Zhao Zheng found an item in the shape of a fruit.

Below it was the official website's description.

[Tremor-Tremor Fruit, after consumption, grants the superpower to create tremors, with powerful attack power, hailed as the strongest Paramecia-type Devil Fruit! However, each use of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit's ability will also cause counter-tremors to oneself, requiring an extremely strong physique to control!]

[Note: This Tremor-Tremor Fruit originated from May of last year, more than two hundred days ago, and it's possible that the training effect it brings has disappeared, use with caution.]

The earlier the extraordinary talent in the Holy Land is used, the better the effect.

Once it's not used for a long time, the training enhancement effect brought by the extraordinary talent will be lost...

Therefore.

This Tremor-Tremor Fruit may currently only possess the superpower to generate tremors, with no training amplification left.

And the most important thing about extraordinary talent is the training amplification effect it carries, allowing the possessor to improve their basic attributes and become stronger through training.

...

Zhao Zheng didn't care about this.

When he saw this Tremor-Tremor Fruit, his eyes immediately lit up.

This thing... is a good thing!!

Whitebeard in the One Piece anime possessed the Tremor-Tremor Fruit ability. Once unleashed, it was simply an existence that could destroy the heavens and the earth!

Earthquakes, air quakes, and even the ability to easily trigger large-scale tsunamis...

Zhao Zheng never expected.

That such a good thing would actually become trash in this world?

Similar treatment to the Kryptonian bloodline!

It's understandable that the Kryptonian bloodline can't be used because there's no sunlight.

But what's wrong with the Tremor-Tremor Fruit?

Thinking of this, Zhao Zheng immediately opened a search engine and searched for information about the "Tremor-Tremor Fruit".

Soon.

He figured out the reason...

...

It turned out that the Tremor-Tremor Fruit had a very big side effect.

Each time this ability is used, although it can deal damage far exceeding one's own, there will also be a very strong counter-tremor force that will harm the user themselves...

Simply put, the Tremor-Tremor Fruit's ability will backfire on the user's body!

Without a strong physique, it's impossible to control this ability.

So far.

The Holy Land has produced the Tremor-Tremor Fruit five times.

The first four users did not die in the Spirit Realm, but died suddenly at a young age.

Doctors, through examining their bodies, discovered that there were too many hidden injuries within their bodies, ultimately leading to sudden death.

Once this news came out.

The Tremor-Tremor Fruit was immediately listed as a "forbidden fruit" by countless transcendents!

There's a joke in the transcendent world: If your life isn't hard enough, don't use the Tremor-Tremor Fruit!!

Although it's a joke, it has scared away many people.

So, in May, a high school student from the North obtained the Tremor-Tremor Fruit from the Holy Land and didn't dare to eat it at all.

Mainly because the other party's family was well-off and there was no need to venture into the Spirit Realm for a way out. Plus, because of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit's side effects, they chose to give it up.

Zhao Zheng believed that if it were a child from a poor family, or someone who craved power, they would have eaten the Tremor-Tremor Fruit even if they knew it had huge side effects!

At worst, they could just not use the Tremor ability and just use the training amplification effect brought by the fruit.

And now.

This Tremor-Tremor Fruit has been stored for more than two hundred days, and the most important training amplification effect is long gone, leaving only the pure Tremor ability...

For the vast majority of people, this Tremor-Tremor Fruit is indeed a useless talent now.

...

Thinking of this.

Zhao Zheng felt somewhat emotional!

He had an indescribable feeling about the fate of this Tremor-Tremor Fruit.

Subsequently.

A smile suddenly appeared on Zhao Zheng's face.

Others are afraid of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit's side effects, but he doesn't need to be afraid at all!

With a Body of Steel and profound Armament Haki, no amount of counter-tremor force could possibly hurt his body!!

And the destructiveness brought by the Tremor-Tremor Fruit is very powerful.

Although Zhao Zheng's current strength is very strong, he doesn't mind having a few more tricks up his sleeve.

It's never a bad thing to have more skills!

So...

He really wants this Tremor-Tremor Fruit!!

The only problem now is if Zhao Zheng gets the Tremor-Tremor Fruit and eats it, will it conflict with his Kryptonian bloodline?

After all, the Tremor-Tremor Fruit is not a skill, but a Holy Land talent.

His Kryptonian bloodline is also a Holy Land talent.

Zhao Zheng doesn't know if two Holy Land talents appearing on the same person will conflict?

Therefore.

He went online again to check and found that most people said there was no conflict.

In fact, some powerful transcendents possess two Holy Land talents...

As for how they obtained the other Holy Land talent, only they themselves know, and it certainly wasn't obtained by force.

Although everyone online says there's no conflict.

However.

Zhao Zheng still picked up his phone and dialed Old Chu's number, preparing to ask Old Chu about it.

"Zhao Zheng? Calling me for something? Do you think you don't have enough auction points?"

Before Zhao Zheng could speak, Old Chu said with a smile: "Don't worry, you and Song Haitang are different from the other students. Your accounts have special privileges. When auctioning an item, if someone is competing, you can overdraft points without limit!"

Zhao Zheng: "..."

There's such a good thing?

...
