Chapter 364: Teaching
September 1st marked the first day of the new semester at the Central City Wu Yi Academy.
In reality, most of the students who passed the entrance exams for the Academy would normally start their studies during this period, although the Academy didn't have any specific restrictions on this. Chen Chuan, who had arrived half a semester earlier, was still considered a minority.
No one could have anticipated that in just half a semester, he had already completed a journey that would normally take three to four years, or even longer, for an average student.
But this was just the beginning.
Chen Chuan recalled what He Xiaoxing had told him about the concept of 'limit', which referred to the maximum potential a person could achieve within a certain stage.
In theory, only a truly perfect individual could reach this limit, and although it seemed distant, he believed he could achieve it.
His second self-integration had already compensated for many of his shortcomings, strengthening his foundation in all aspects. If he could achieve it once more, he might reach true perfection, or even surpass it.
According to He Xiaoxing's later explanation, the first to third limits were actually a whole, and some of the difficulties in improving during the first and second limits could be addressed and further enhanced during this stage.
Therefore, his next goal was to enhance himself comprehensively and try to reach the theoretical limit.
However, this meant he needed several times more cultivation resources than a fighter of the same level, as well as putting in more effort.
Although the road ahead was challenging, the thought of becoming stronger through this journey filled him with anticipation and motivation.
He used the Boundary Vessel to access the Wu Yi platform and checked the schedule for this semester.
Upon reaching the third limit, a student's evaluation score would automatically be raised to the highest level, and they no longer needed to participate in any form of assessment. The Academy would also grant them access to all internal reading materials.
However, his main concern was how to proceed with his cultivation from now on.
When he inquired, the platform informed him that all subsequent cultivation knowledge, as well as the purchase of medications and services related to the third limit, required students to first apply, then obtain approval from the Academy's higher-ups, and finally sign an agreement before receiving guidance from a designated instructor.
Upon seeing this, Chen Chuan immediately submitted an application through the Boundary Vessel and was informed that his request had been received, and the Academy would respond within three to five days.
Seeing this, he wasn't in a rush and took the opportunity to search for some other information, especially regarding the techniques that third-limit fighters could master.
The school didn't impose any strict restrictions on this, as you couldn't possibly prevent fighters from exchanging knowledge among themselves, and there were plenty of people willing to teach these skills that didn't require many external resources.
He first focused on techniques related to Life Field, which he found extremely useful. By using the Life Field, one could distinguish people and objects outside without relying on senses and could transmit and receive information without the need for conventional learning methods.
This was a very useful skill.
However, after browsing the platform, he found that most of the paid courses offered by teachers were aimed at students below the third limit, and none explicitly stated they would teach these techniques.
He would have to ask a teacher within the Academy for advice, as they were more familiar with the internal situation and could provide better guidance based on a student's strengths and characteristics than he could by searching blindly.
At this moment, he suddenly remembered the teacher who had escorted the students to the arena venue, Mr. Bai, who had told him that he could attend his class for free if needed.
He had looked up Mr. Bai's profile and found that he was mainly responsible for some theoretical courses, so he should be able to offer some advice in this regard.
After deciding, Chen Chuan located Mr. Bai's profile and tried to contact him.
Within a few seconds, Mr. Bai answered in a playful tone, "Chen Chuan, you're looking for me on the first day of school. Are you planning to attend my class?"
Chen Chuan replied, "I do have some questions for you, Mr. Bai."
As he spoke, Fan Cheng and Kong Yao, whom Chen Chuan had met in the elevator that day, were waiting outside the classroom.
To avoid being demoted to adjunct students, they had to work hard to improve themselves.
Over the past few days, they had searched for information about various teachers on the platform, but the vast amount of information left them feeling overwhelmed. Everything seemed important, and they couldn't decide what to prioritize.
Moreover, the teachers' descriptions made it seem that failing to study their courses would result in difficulty passing the assessments and earning evaluation points, which made them increasingly anxious.
They realized that they couldn't determine which teacher was suitable for them on their own. If they made a wrong choice, wasting money was the least of their concerns. Even if they could withdraw, the time wasted and the delay in progress were the most significant issues.
Later, a senior student recommended Mr. Bai to them. Although he specialized in combat theory, he could provide detailed guidance and planning based on a student's strengths and characteristics.
This is a very rare opportunity, akin to being shown a path, so they hurriedly made their way over.
However, they weren't the only ones seeking this teacher's guidance at the start of the new semester, so they waited for quite some time and even added more courses before it was finally their turn.
"Who is Teacher Bai talking to that it's taking so long?" Fan Cheng couldn't help but feel a bit agitated.
"Teacher Bai had a big smile on his face when he entered the room just now, so it's probably some teacher..." Kong Yao said uncertainly, "But anyway, it's finally our turn, so we'll just wait."
"Sigh..." Fan Cheng ran his hand through his hair, occasionally pulling out a few strands. Fortunately, fighters' hair grew quickly, lush and thick, so he didn't have to worry about any issues for the time being.
On the other side, Chen Chuan expressed his intention to the Boundary Vessel, "Teacher Bai, I want to learn some techniques related to life field perception. I wonder if you could give me some guidance?"
Teacher Bai smiled and said, "I can offer some advice in this area, but to teach you, Chen student, I don't feel qualified enough. However, I can recommend a teacher - Teacher Jiang Tian."
"This teacher has made significant contributions in this field. Despite his young age, his theoretical foundation in field perception is almost on par with mine, and his practical skills are also sufficient. He's also very approachable, and his teaching style is never dull. I believe he'll be a good fit for you, Chen student."
"Oh, does Chen student know him?"
"I passed my skill assessment with him before," Chen Chuan replied.
Teacher Bai seemed to recall something and suddenly laughed, "I heard that Teacher Jiang almost got into trouble during a student assessment because of his overconfidence. So, it was you, Chen student? That explains it. Well, it's good that I don't have to introduce him now. I'll give him a call later."
"Thank you, Teacher Bai," said Chen Chuan.
"You're welcome, Chen student," Teacher Bai said. "Since you've sought me out, as your teacher, I'll offer some additional advice if you don't mind my rambling."
"Please go ahead, Teacher Bai," Chen Chuan said.
"As you know, I specialize in combat theory, not practical combat. But theory can help you clearly distinguish enemies, understand yourself, and know where you stand and where you're heading."
He emphasized, "Don't underestimate this. Once you grasp this, your heart will be free of confusion, and your focused thoughts will forge a determined and resilient will. This will greatly aid your spiritual cultivation.
Even in actual combat, it can help you analyze and find your enemy's weaknesses."
"All the powerful Tier Three Fighters have their own methods for understanding and dissecting themselves and their opponents."
Chen Chuan contemplated Teacher Bai's words, and he sincerely replied, "Thank you for the reminder, teacher."
Teacher Bai smiled, sensing from Chen Chuan's tone that the student had truly taken his words to heart, which gave him a sense of accomplishment. "Chen student, if there's anything you don't understand in the future, feel free to come to me. I look forward to our exchanges."
After this conversation, Teacher Bai exited the classroom, and Fan Cheng and Kong Yao, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately approached him.
With a slightly stern expression, Teacher Bai said, "Sorry to keep you waiting. I had some important matters to attend to."
Fan Cheng quickly replied, "No, teacher, your matters are more important. Our issue can wait."
"Alright, let's begin. You two, follow me. I'll take a look at your foundation first."
"Sure," Fan Cheng and Kong Yao followed him into the room.
Inside the dormitory on the forty-ninth floor, after Chen Chuan's call with Teacher Bai ended, he tried to contact Teacher Jiang. The call connected quickly, and a voice came from the other end, "Chen student, I just received a message from Teacher Bai. I'm free this morning. Just come directly to the Eighty-Second Floor, Fifth Training Room."
"I'll be there right away," Chen Chuan said.
He quickly packed up, took the Snow Lady Sword, and headed out. He took the elevator and made his way to the eighty-second floor, finding the fifth training room along the corridor.
As he entered, Teacher Jiang was wearing a loose training outfit, his long hair resembling that of an artist. He stood on the warm-toned floor, with a row of windows behind him, letting in bright light from outside.
As Chen Chuan entered, Teacher Jiang's voice resonated, "Everyone possesses life field perception, which can be considered a collection of one's life information. However, it's weak and hidden in ordinary people, making it nearly imperceptible. Fighters, due to their mutated tissue, have an exceptionally prominent and dominant field perception, capable of influencing a wider area.
But merely releasing your field perception can reveal your information to others. Retaining it is a better approach, but it's not the best strategy when facing enemies."
