[He then told you about the benefits of joining the Supervision Bureau: as long as you are a Transcendent, upon joining, you receive an apartment distributed by the Federation, a monthly salary of 30,000 even if you do nothing, and extra bonuses for completing missions.]
[While the two of you were chatting, the City Supervision Bureau quickly arrived.]
[After getting out of the car, a large building appeared before your eyes. Upon observation, you realized it was the Central Building of the City.]
["Is this entire building used by the Supervision Bureau?"]
["Yes, the entire building is used by our Supervision Bureau personnel. However, the offices inside are occupied by ordinary people, while the true core of the Supervision Bureau is located underground."]
[Wang Shi said this as he led you into the building, taking the elevator down to the basement.]
[Once underground, Li Ming had something to attend to and left first. Wang Shi then led you on a tour inside the Supervision Bureau.]
[The first place you visited was a training ground where some people were practicing their Transcendent powers: some controlling fire, some controlling water, and others lifting weights.]
["That training area is for new Transcendent to familiarize themselves with their strength. There are also areas for strength testing."]
[After completing the tour, you noticed that there weren't many Transcendent within the Supervision Bureau, so you raised this question to Wang Shi.]
[You subsequently received the answer from Wang Shi.]
[Although the number of Transcendent increased after March, they are still rare globally. Currently, fewer than 100,000 Transcendent have been discovered worldwide.]
[One hundred thousand seems like a lot, but the entire Dawn Federation has over twenty billion people. Calculating that way, even including those yet undiscovered, the number wouldn't exceed 150,000. In other words, only one person in hundreds of thousands is an Awakened.]
[Moreover, the majority of these individuals are civilian Transcendent, which has led to a severe shortage of personnel in the Supervision Bureau. City is considered relatively good, having 15 Transcendent, including you.]
[Furthermore, according to Wang Shi, the Supervision Bureau originally had even fewer Transcendent because it had no intention of recruiting civilian Transcendent at the time.]
[This was because Transcendent were initially rare, and those who had just undergone Awakening were not powerful; current technology could easily suppress them. Thus, most people in the Supervision Bureau initially were just well-trained soldiers.]
[Who knew that later, the Spiritual Qi concentration would increase, and the number of Transcendent would suddenly multiply, with the strength of the initial batch of Transcendent also improving.]
[Anticipating that the number of Transcendent would continue to grow, they began recruiting civilians to better control the situation.]
[Unfortunately, many civilian Transcendent are currently not inclined to join the Supervision Bureau, and the Federation has not forced them to.]
[Because while the number of Awakened is slowly increasing, Transcendent are still rare. The vast majority of ordinary people are unaware of this matter, and the Federation still controls the situation.]
[After the tour, Wang Shi brought you to the strength testing area. He first asked you to download an APP, explaining that it was a Transcendent platform built by the Federation containing knowledge about Transcendent.]
[He then asked you to wait there while he went to find the Director before conducting your strength test.]
[After Wang Shi left, you logged into the APP. The APP's name was Home of the Transcendent.]
[After logging in, you began checking some information about Transcendent.]
[First was the classification of Transcendent Abilities.]
[Based on the manifestations of Transcendent Abilities, the various Federations generally divide them into four major systems.]
[These are: Energy Manipulation System, Physical Body Enhancement System, Psychic Interference System, and Abstract Concept System.]
[The Energy Manipulation System encompasses the subtle control over various elements, including the natural forces of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Wind, and Lightning, as well as auxiliary abilities like using special energy for healing or enhancing others.]
[Transcendent of this type can achieve integrated offensive and defensive combat effects through precise energy deployment, or provide crucial support to companions, demonstrating extraordinary energy manipulation techniques.]
[Transcendent of the Physical Body Enhancement System acquire physical qualities far exceeding ordinary people upon Awakening.]
[Furthermore, they can gain varying degrees of physical augmentation when using their abilities, such as becoming impervious or transforming into a giant. Any ability whose function is to enhance one's Physical Body belongs to this system.]
[The Psychic Interference System needs no further explanation; abilities like Mind Reading, Psychic Manipulation, and Telekinesis are all categorized under the Psychic Interference System.]
[Finally, there is the Abstract Concept System, which encompasses everything.]
[Any Transcendent ability that cannot be classified into the first three categories, or possesses features of multiple systems, is included here. These abilities often possess unique rule-based properties, and while Awakened of this type are rare, their potential is infinite; each one is a unique, irreplaceable existence.]
[Among these four systems, the Physical Body Enhancement System has the most Awakened, while the Abstract Concept System has the fewest.]
[Afterward, you watched some official videos of Transcendent demonstrating their Transcendent Abilities.]
[In the footage, a Fire-type Transcendent's hands fluttered like butterflies, and scorching flames gathered around him into a vortex.]
[As he suddenly swung his arm, a Fiery Dragon roared out, instantly melting thick steel plates into scalding molten iron. The heat wave even warped the camera lens.]
[Next, a powerhouse controlling lightning appeared. He raised his right arm, and countless electric lights converged in his palm, instantly condensing into a long spear shining with dazzling blue light.]
[As he threw his arm forward, the Lightning Spear tore through the sky, detonating a kilometer away with a deafening boom, the shockwave leveling everything within a hundred meters.]
[The scene switched to a Transcendent standing proudly, enveloped in a golden halo. Countless bullets and shells poured down like rain, yet they all bounced off the golden barrier the moment they touched it, failing to leave even a scratch.]
[He was like an unshakable War God, strolling leisurely through the hail of bullets.]
[The most shocking was a Transcendent capable of manipulating space. One second he was standing still, the next he appeared a hundred meters in the air, completing several blinks in a flash, appearing and disappearing like a ghost.]
[You watched the Transcendent powers displayed by these Transcendent in the videos and compared their strength to your own.]
[You found it genuinely difficult to compare. Leaving aside whether some strange Transcendent Abilities could affect you, you weren't even sure if you could withstand the attacks of the two fire and lightning controllers in the video.]
[However, if these element-controlling Transcendent didn't have strong Physical Bodies, you could send them to the afterlife with one punch.]
[After pondering for a while, you decided to stop thinking about it. You were about to take the strength test anyway, and then you would know your current level.]
[Just as you were becoming familiar with the Home of the Transcendent, Wang Shi walked over, accompanied by a burly man two meters tall.]
[After talking, you learned that the big man's name was Shi Shan, and he was a Transcendent of the Physical Body Enhancement System.]
[At this moment, you sensed something was off. Previously, Wang Shi and the other person felt like ordinary people in your perception, and you had thought they were ordinary people.]
[Now that you saw Shi Shan, you realized that in your perception, he was the same as Wang Shi and the other person, showing nothing beyond an ordinary person. It seemed that Transcendent were very difficult to detect unless they exposed themselves.]
[After Shi Shan learned that you were also a Physical Body-side Transcendent, he led you to a device that looked like a Force Measuring Machine.]
[Before this, you had noticed many futuristic-looking pieces of equipment in the venue. Indeed, these devices were used for strength testing.]
[Shi Shan told you that these devices were specially made by the Federation, combining some unique Transcendent Abilities, specifically for testing the strength of Transcendent.]
[You heard that the Federation is currently researching equipment capable of accurately locating Transcendent within a crowd.]
[Under the effect of powerful Materials and special Transcendent Abilities, these devices are incredibly sturdy, and so far, no Transcendent has been able to break them head-on.]
[The machine in front of you is specifically designed to test the power of Transcendent; striking it with your fist will measure your specific strength.]
[Looking at the device in front of you, you didn't hesitate and threw a straight punch. As your fist landed on the Force Measuring Machine, a wave of impact instantly radiated outwards.]
["Not good." Shi Shan never dreamed that someone who had just undergone Awakening would possess such terrifying strength. He quickly petrified and transformed into a three-meter-tall Stone Giant, blocking Wang Shi.]
[Subsequently, a powerful shockwave slammed into him, but fortunately, he managed to withstand it.]
[As for the other equipment in the venue, he wasn't worried, because the Federation had considered that some newly Awakened energy-type Transcendent might not control their abilities well and cause collateral damage. Therefore, the venue was specially arranged to dissipate residual waves.]
[This special arrangement, coupled with the inherent sturdiness of the equipment, was sufficient to withstand such a shockwave.]
[You also hadn't expected your strength to be so great, causing this situation.]
[You then saw the value displayed on the machine after your punch: 553,020 kg.]
[Of course, your raw strength wasn't necessarily this high; you had instinctively used some force application techniques when punching, and you felt this was not your limit.]
[Seeing that Shi Shan and the other person were not accidentally injured by you, you continued attacking the Force Measuring Machine.]
[1,045,000 kg]
[...1,345,000 kg]
[...Under the dual influence of your brain, which far surpassed human limits, and your trait, your control over your own strength became increasingly proficient. Your attacks grew stronger, but the resulting shockwave from your fist grew smaller, until finally, your strike only caused a slight tremor in the surrounding air.]
[Finally, you stopped. The number on the Force Measuring Machine eventually settled at 2,500,000 kg.]
[Afterward, under the astonished gazes of the two men, you tested your speed and defense.]
[After precise testing, your speed was 430.2 m/s. This was just your normal speed; if you utilized certain techniques, you could be faster.]
[As for defense, you could withstand the firing of a sniper rifle without a scratch.]
[Seeing that you possessed such terrifying strength, Shi Shan hurriedly reported your specific details to the Federation.]
[He knew clearly that your current strength definitely placed you in the top tier among all Transcendent, and this was merely the strength gained from a recent Awakening.]
[Moreover, your performance was overly comprehensive. Most Transcendent of the Physical Body Enhancement System are strong in either defense, offense, or speed. While some develop comprehensively, they still fall far short of you.]
[Finally, Shi Shan told you that the Main Bureau would send a few people tomorrow to inquire about your situation, and you might subsequently be transferred to the East Continent Supervision Main Bureau.]
[You had no objections to this, merely telling Shi Shan that you wanted to go home to pack your things and then move directly into the Bureau.]
[Shi Shan naturally agreed, raising no objections or trying to stop you with excuses like your terrifying strength making you a source of social instability.]
[He wasn't stupid. Setting aside your pro-Federation stance, even if you caused destruction now, he wouldn't have the strength to stop you. Moreover, he believed no smart person would dare to directly oppose the globally ruling Dawn Federation right after gaining power.]
[In fact, the videos on the Home of the Transcendent APP were intentionally released by the Federation to deter Transcendent, preventing them from harboring inappropriate ambitions.]
[You took the Supervision Bureau ID card, which allowed you free access to the entire building, and prepared to leave.]
[You then declined Wang Shi's kind offer to drive you home and simply took a taxi back.]
