For Bai Yu, Ning Qian's type of question this early in the morning was just a small matter.
This was something Bai Yu had to experience every day.
For the first class of the day, there will be a Spiritual Technique class.
The so-called Spiritual Technique was to guide the spiritual energy that was everywhere in the world to launch supernatural attacks.
For example, fireballs, wind blades, icicles, these were all within the scope of spirit techniques.
Of course as a broad and profound earthling, Bai Yu felt that spirit techniques were similar to magic, Dao techniques, battle techniques, cultivation techniques, and so on in novels. It could attract spiritual energy that was everywhere in the world to release a powerful attack.
This required the cultivation of a special technique, as well as the cultivator's strong spiritual energy.
This class was still teaching the Spiritual Seeking technique to their students. It was the most basic technique for controlling spirit techniques, comprehending spirit energy, and training the body. It was also the basic condition for wanting to become a warrior.
That's right!
A warrior could achieve this through the acquired condition.
Extraordinary people… Well, that depended on their luck and talent.
Ordinary people only had two ways to become extraordinary people. One was to have a mysterious encounter and the other was to drink a very rare and special potion.
98% of the people who come into contact with the mysterious potion had become abnormal, and one percent had gone mad.
There were not many special potions that circulated in the world.
The potion formula was controlled in the hands of the major forces and experts. Ordinary people could not get their hands on the formula, and it was also very difficult to gather the necessary materials as they were just as rare as the potion.
Therefore, there were very few extraordinary people in society, and there was usually only one investigator in each city.
Extraordinaires had strange abilities, and their resistance to strangeness was much higher than that of martial artists.
There was no distinction between mages and warriors on planet Azure.
Those who could control spiritual spells in battle were all called martial artists.
However, Bai Yu had always seen them as mages, melee mages, mages with large sabers, mages with a weapon, mages wearing mechanical armor..
In any case, mages and martial artists should be close combat characters that dealt critical hits, right?
Other than martial artists, mechanical equipment, modified humans, and extraordinaires basically formed the power system of this world.
Of course, the number of martial artists was abundant. They were the backbone of an empire, more than 90% of them were martial artists.
What was taught in the school was how to become a martial artist.
It was also how to comprehend the spiritual energy that was everywhere in the world, cultivate spiritual techniques, and temper the body to accommodate spiritual energy.
Bai Yu had already cultivated the spirit-seeking method to the highest level two months ago.
Many of the more difficult knowledge points had also been swept away, so this class basically did not benefit him. However, because the teacher of this class was a beauty who looked young and fresh, he could not bear to leave.
She was sweet-natured and had a black but cold heart.
If he missed class, he would be written in the black books. Bai Yu had no choice but to come.
…
It was not easy for him to make it to the end of class.
Bai Yu looked at the task bar and did not hesitate anymore. He was going to read in the library for his mission!
A true genius should always solo the library missions!
However, when he walked out of the classroom, he was stopped by a man with bloodshot eyes, a haggard face, and an eyeball that was about to pop out.
His name was Yue Zian!
Although the two of them did not know each other, Yue Zian had been in the same school as Bai Yu from elementary to middle school. Moreover, he was first in his age even in his exams, plus first in all his subjects.
He was named as the Valiant man in Linjiang Cty who was most likely to be admitted to the capital's Devil University.
In his life, Yue Zian was no weaker than anyone else.
However… After Bai Yu transmigrated here, he went from being an underachiever to a top student, instantly beating him up.
What was the most uncomfortable thing in the world? Of course, it had to be losing out in terms of ego.
What was even more uncomfortable than that was Yue Zian once held that title like a little snob until it got taken away.
Yue Zian understood this feeling of hurt very well.
Therefore, the relationship between the two was very subtle.
There was a feeling of a hero cherishing each other and making friends with a confidant, but they were also competing with each other. Water and fire were incompatible, and they were each other's mortal enemies.
Of course, all of the above was Yue Zian's perspective on all of this.
"What's up?
"If you don't know how to answer the questions, you can go and ask the teacher.
"There should be more than 300 people lined up right now at the office.
"I'll try and find time to explain to you later. If you can find a teacher, that would be the best."
Bai Yu was in a hurry. He had to stay in the library for eight hours, so he did not have time to explain the questions to others.
The teachers in the school would usually conduct their own cultivation and research after the official lesson, and rarely cared about the students.
The teacher could only teach them the theories, personal cultivation depended on the person.
"Bai Yu, are you humiliating me? Don't play dumb for me. I'm here to challenge you. This time, I'll definitely surpass you as a second model and take back my first place!"
Yue Zian's eyes were red as he said fiercely.
Seeing that Bai Yu was scared speechless by his aura, he let out a long breath of anger.
A moment later, Bai Yu revealed an awkward expression. "Sorry, although I see your frustration, but... who are you?"
Yue Zian's face fell.
"He's Yue Zian. His results are always below yours, and he used to be the top student until you came along."
Ning Qian explained seriously.
Bai Yu suddenly understood and smiled. "So it's you. I've heard a lot about you.
"I haven't been studying much recently. Judging from your expression, you look like someone deprived of sleep and food. I'm sure you've worked hard enough to surpass me.
"That's all. I still have things to do."
After saying that, Bai Yu squeezed through the crowd in the corridor and disappeared from sight.
Apart from Ning Qian — who was trying her best to hold back her laughter — the surrounding students, as well as Yue Zian, had an ugly expression on his face, were left behind.
Looking at the students who were trying their best to hold back their laughter caused Yue Zian's face to turn even darker.
So what if he was handsome? So what if he was good at his studies? So what if he was popular!
He had to defeat this b*stard.
He had already lost in terms of his looks. He could not lose in terms of his grades.
"I, Yue Zian, am not weaker than others in my life!"
…
Linjiang's school's library was famous locally.
Due to its rich collection of books, many martial artists from the society would come to borrow them.
The entire library looked like a huge open book that was the size of a stadium.
The exterior of the library was filled with machinery and gear creations. Iron pipes were arranged on the walls of the building irregularly.
On both sides of the stacks and stacks of books were huge gear decorations that rotated like windmills. At the top were chimneys that emitted white steam, and in the middle was a huge mechanical clock.
It was said that when this school was first established, it had been funded by the God of Steam and Machinery, which was why it had grown to be this popular and well-built.
Of course, as the most powerful church with the most believers, the most branches, and the most churches, their architectural style could be seen everywhere on Planet Azure.
"Hi, please give me eight hours of study time."
Bai Yu walked to the counter of the library and took out the student card.
There was a time limit for studying in the library.
The knowledge of mysticism was too obscure and difficult to understand. Some high-end books on mysticism would involve some weird things, causing people to unconsciously go crazy while reading.
Therefore, the library implemented a grading system.
Only when the rating reached a certain requirement could one enter the area and take out the books to read. At the same time, according to the rating, a reasonable reading time would be arranged.
After the reading time was used up every day, one could only wait for the next day.
Bai Yu was the first in his senior year. His reading time had already reached eight hours per use, while many ordinary students only had two hours.
The system's mission was obviously based on Bai Yu's current reading time limit.
"For eight hours straight? Although it's not long before the college entrance exam, you have to pay attention to your health. You are the future hope of the Dongsheng Empire."
The lady handed over the opened card. "Go."
Bai Yu thanked her, kept the card, and rushed into the library impatiently.
