The expectant look on Yan Chong's face froze. "Is this cat trying to take revenge on me? I've never offended her before. Or are women just that unreasonable?"
After Catherine finished speaking, she continued to lower her head. Yan Chong took a glance and realized that it was a novel that he was currently pursuing, called "Demon Eye Warlock". He still insisted on voting every day and enthusiastically posted reviews.
"I think I still have that talent. Actually, I'm pretty smart. In school, I'm one of those rumored straight As students. If someone like me can't become an Arcanist, who can?" Yan Chong said hurriedly. He felt that Catherine might be testing him.
"No, no, no. I can feel it. Compared to ordinary people your age, your intelligence and mind status should be considered average," Catherine said. "I can still see this clearly. However, this is not the most important thing in the Arcanist profession."
Yan Chong was a little surprised. He had thought that Catherine was deliberately trying to make things difficult for him, to test him, or perhaps not knowing his exact attributes. But to his surprise, she could feel it. However, as a former Legendary class big shot, it was normal to have such foresight.
"What's that?"
Catherine suddenly stared at him seriously and said, "Arcanists are professionals who pursue the truth of this world for life. The most important thing is their desire for truth.
"Today, I went online to get a general understanding of your world. I found that although the people in your world are relatively weak, they have developed many strange and interesting things. On our side, we call such people Alchemists. Especially the nuclear bombs you invented. They can already achieve the destructive power of Legendary magic. You call them scientists, right?"
"Yes." Yan Chong nodded.
"We Arcanists are the same kind of people, except that we study all kinds of spells and alchemists study all kinds of items. However, we all have one thing in common: we are curious about this world and have a thirst for the truth.
"I only see a salted fish on you. If you want to become a Mage, I suggest you become an Elementalist. Arcanists are not suitable for you."
Catherine struck him mercilessly.
"Huh? Why did your body suddenly become so much stronger? Or did I see wrongly?" Suddenly, Catherine stared at Yan Chong and revealed a surprised expression. "I also recommend you to become a knight! Believe me, you have such potential!"
Yan Chong was speechless. Did he have to become a scientist after learning mathematics, physics, and chemistry? If he didn't want to become a scientist, he didn't have to learn at all? So what if he was salted fish? Did I eat your rice?
Study hard, get into a good university, find a good job, and then earn enough money to travel the world and enjoy life. Isn't that a good life?
This was Yan Chong's life plan.
When he was young, Yan Chong had wanted to be a scientist, a writer, a martial arts expert, a soldier, a…
So he rearranged his thoughts and said, "In fact, interest can be nurtured. I suddenly realize that I am filled with a thirst for truth, and I am curious about the truth of this world."
However, although Catherine looked like a little kitten that had just turned a month old, she was not easy to fool. She shook her head. "Do you know how so many spells came about? Most of them were created by Arcanists.
"Elementalists and Arcanists are not two distinct professions. However, the Elementalist's main elemental magic system is mainly used for combat.
"Arcanists, on the other hand, will improve or even innovate on the foundation of the mature major magic systems. This includes the elemental magic system. Therefore, arcanists have very strong theories, but they are usually very weak in actual combat.
"However, no matter how powerful an Elementalist is, it is hard to describe them as great. The Arcanists, on the other hand, have supported the foundation of human civilization for generations and made outstanding contributions to the world.
"In front of you is the nominee of the 'Brilliant Mind' Medal of the year 478, year 479, and year 480, the distinguished contributor of Arcana, Her Highness Catherine. This medal is equivalent to your Nobel Prize. Nearly a hundred spells named after me alone.
"By the way, I'm not one of those rumored ten-thousand-year runner-ups. Brilliant Mind is held once every twenty years, and there are usually three to five nominees. One of them would win an award, and in history, there has never been a situation where one has been nominated three times in a row without receiving an award."
Catherine suddenly covered her eyes with her claws and said in distress, "It's over. I've suddenly come to this world. If I don't give an acceptance speech when I win the award next time, what should I do?"
With that, she rolled around on the sofa, muttering something.
Yan Chong watched this scene with his mouth agape. He didn't expect the topic to change so quickly. "Speaking of which, weren't we discussing whether or not I could become an Arcanist? Why did we suddenly end up here? Besides, I just want to learn your meditation technique." Yan Chong complained in his heart, but he did not dare to say it out loud.
"Catherine, I—"
He wanted to say something more, but suddenly Catherine stopped rolling and held up a paw to silence Yan Chong.
"You don't have to say anymore. The meditation technique of our Stars Academy cannot be casually taught to outsiders unless they are officially members of our academy. When the time comes, I will look carefully and see if there are any meditation techniques that can be taught to others. Then, I will teach them to you."
"Alright." Yan Chong could only reply obediently.
Actually, what he wanted the most was the Grade S Star Meditation Technique. Although SS might be because Catherine had already reached such a level of strength, how could a meditation technique that allowed her to cultivate to such a high level be ordinary?
In the Endless Mainland, breathing techniques and meditation techniques were also divided into many levels.
For ordinary ones, cultivating to Grade A was the limit, and it was only theoretically feasible. Generally, reaching Grade B would be difficult. This was because cultivation techniques were the same as professions. The bottom line of a legacy was that the four levels from Gold to Black Iron were complete. Otherwise, it would not be considered a cultivation technique or a profession that was recognized by the world.
Extraordinary level cultivation arts, on the other hand, could theoretically be cultivated to Legendary level. What Yan Chong had copied from that woman was an Extraordinary level art.
An Epic-level technique was actually considered a true inheritance technique. It could be cultivated to the peak of Legendary rank and even had some ideas of becoming a God. Even if one did not have the qualifications, it was theoretically possible as long as one followed the requirements.
Hence, the Star Meditation Method was at least an Epic level cultivation technique.
The so-called top factions and families must have their own Epic level cultivation techniques.
However, Yan Chong was satisfied that he could obtain a meditation technique and use it temporarily. Yan Chong had already made up his mind to guard Catherine. He had to obtain the meditation technique before he transmigrated tonight.
