It was time to nurture a batch of talent specializing in psychic powers.
The reason Benjamin had this thought was that there came quite a lot of talent with "inclination on certain courses" in the recent academic intakes. They did not have much to show for the affinity to any of the six elements, yet they possessed exceptional Spiritual Energy that managed to surpass the standard of a regular mage. To think such a constitution existed.
If it was before, they would harden their hearts and reject these students. After all, to a mage, the affinity to elements was a defining target. This was an inevitable reality for the surfacing of the runes’ law of meditation. But now… Benjamin had discovered an entirely new route.
Hence, he handpicked over ten talents who were extraordinarily gifted in Spiritual Energy and had them stay behind.
