Su Fu’s admiration for her increased instantly, and even her initial impression of Tianqi Affiliated High School became very positive.
“Well, let’s start today’s content.”
Li Qingfrost waved her hand lightly, and the holographic projection immediately displayed the teaching content.
“Today, I want to talk to you about the principles of divine skills and their practical application in combat.”
“Before explaining the principles of divine skills, I have a question for everyone,” she pointed to the flickering light points on the projection and said,
“Have you ever thought about why, with the same D-level divine power, some people can unleash astonishing power, while others are just barely satisfactory?”
The classroom fell silent.
This question was too close to the heart, especially for the students who had just gone through the preliminary contest.
They wanted to know the answer too!
“This has to do with the essence of the divine power level. The divine realm has three levels within the divine state.”
Professor Li brought up a three-dimensional model of the divine power level, “Now most of you are in the divine state.”
“D-level is the initial level, representing the ability to use a variety of divine skills, but with lower proficiency in these skills.”
“C-level is a step further, with a much richer variety of divine skills and a significant increase in ability.”
“B-level is the peak of the divine state. Generally speaking, only those who have mastered divine abilities can reach this level.”
“The difference in the power unleashed actually lies in the operation patterns of divine power at different levels……………”
As she explained, the model in the projection kept changing, showing the details of the divine power operation.
Su Fu was completely absorbed.
This was just too detailed!
And the explanation was so clear and easy to understand.
“Actually,” Li Qingfrost continued, “The key to upgrading from D-level to C-level is proficiency.”
“As for going even higher, it involves another concept: the quality of divine power.”
Su Fu murmured to herself ‘……………quality?’
Divine power has quality too?
“Actually, divine power is like a river. Some people’s divine power is like a rapid torrent, while others’ is like a slow stream. But the key is not the speed of the flow, but the control.”
“For example, some students have skills with too long a pre-cast time,” Professor Li’s gaze turned to Su Fu, “This is actually because the control of divine power is not precise and proficient enough.”
“If one could achieve……” Professor Li flicked her finger, and the light flow in the projection instantly changed, forming a perfect divine power circuit.
The circuit was quite complex, but in Professor Li’s hands, it seemed incredibly smooth.
Everyone was amazed.
The professor’s control was simply amazing!
Su Fu felt like she had an epiphany.
She was still using divine power too coarsely, without consciously making fine adjustments.
Wasting a little divine power when there’s plenty might not seem like a big problem, but if this habit accumulates over time, it could lead to serious issues when divine power runs low.
“Moreover, the control of divine power also involves another issue,” Professor Li continued, “that is the use of multiple divine skills.”
“This is a very interesting topic. Many people think that using multiple divine skills will increase the burden on divine power, but actually…………………..”
The projection showed multiple light flows of different colors, interwoven yet distinct.
“If one can find the correct resonance frequency, the power of multiple deities will not only not interfere with each other, but can form a perfect divine power cycle.”
Su Fu felt like something in her mind had been unblocked.
So that’s how it is!
The questions she had prepared earlier suddenly had answers.
Deities could definitely cooperate with each other!
Skills too!
And perhaps, compared to using a single skill, it could be more efficient and even more powerful!
“Resonance.”
This is the key.
The entire classroom was silent, with everyone listening intently.
As Professor Li Qingfrost’s last words fell, the classroom erupted in enthusiastic applause.
This was not polite applause, but heartfelt recognition.
Professor Li was truly amazing!
She raised her hand slightly to signal for quiet: “I’m glad you all listened so attentively,”
“I know the assessment you are about to face is very challenging, but every effort will be worthwhile.”
“Well,” she clapped her hands gently, “today’s class is over. I hope to see you all on a higher stage one day.”
Everyone shouted in unison: “Thank you, Professor Li!”
As they walked out of the classroom, Lin Mingxi was still in awe.
He couldn’t help but marvel, “This is what a real teacher is like. It’s unimaginable what level of understanding of divine power the students at Tianqi Affiliated High School must have if all their teachers are like this.”
Su Fu nodded silently.
Indeed, the inspiration she gained from today’s class was more than all her previous fumbling around.
If one could study in such an environment, it would truly be twice the result with half the effort, right?
“No way!” Lin Mingxi stopped in his tracks, his expression becoming very serious, “We must double our training in the next few days!”
“Before coming out of the seventh high, I thought I was pretty good,”
“But now I realize, geniuses are everywhere!”
“We have to step up our game!”
Su Fu and Jiang Qingyu exchanged glances and said in unison: “Training, let’s go now.”
***
Monday morning, at the Provincial Academy’s Star River Sanctuary.
This colossal architectural complex, located at the center of the provincial academy, stood majestically with its seven white jade-like spires piercing the clouds.
The three of them arrived early and were observing everything around them like country bumpkins.
【Attention all candidates, the assessment is about to begin.】
【Please enter in an orderly manner.】
The gate opened, and the candidates filed in one after another.
Su Fu and her companions followed the crowd inside.
It was clear that the provincial academy students were all old hands, quietly and swiftly finding their respective positions.
On the contrary, the students from District 12 seemed out of place, awkwardly and nervously trying to imitate what they saw.
But actually, there was no need to worry.
Su Fu was quite open-minded about it.
After all, they had different exam papers from the provincial academy students.
It didn’t matter where they stood; as long as they could take the exam, that was fine.
She quietly observed the crowd, thinking that the most intense battles would probably still be among the top nine high schools.
There was no way around it.
The top three high schools had such an extraordinary status that even Lily and the others from the fourth high school didn’t plan to confront them directly.
However……can they avoid it?
Can they really avoid it?
At the top of the Star River Sanctuary, in the monitoring center.
In front of the huge circular control console, dozens of examination room constructors were making the final adjustments.
Countless streams of divine power data intertwined in the void, outlining a complex divine power network.
“The Shen Yan AI system has been calibrated.”
“The stability of the rule field has been verified.”
“The energy barrier’s strength has reached the standard value.”
In the center of the monitoring center, a huge main control screen hovered in mid-air, with all the candidates’ figures clearly visible.
Zhou Nanyuan stood in front of the control console, with Vishnu’s divine power flowing around him.
He quickly reported back: “Area A has been checked.”
Other inspectors also reported one after another: “Area B has been checked.”
Dean Zhang nodded and said, “Well done.”
He looked up at the Shen Yan AI and reported: “The examination room in District 12 has been constructed. All twenty-two candidates are in place, and the rule field is running stably.”
Shen Yan: “Received. Please wait, establishing the link.”
Almost at the same time, the main control screen suddenly split into two.
On the left were the twenty-two candidates from District 12, while on the right were the two hundred and nine candidates from the provincial academy’s first year.
Although it was a different examination room for the candidates, for the invigilators, it was obviously more convenient to have one main control screen to monitor everything.
However, for the teachers, it was the students from the provincial academy’s first year who were more interesting.
These were the ones who truly deserved attention.
“The young man from the Toyotomi family has broken through again,” an older invigilator pointed at the screen showing the provincial academy’s examination room, “Look at that divine power fluctuation, it’s almost B-level.”
“Isn’t it,” the female invigilator next to her laughed in agreement and said,
“This year’s crop of students from the provincial academy is quite promising. A conservative estimate would be a 70% pass rate. Especially the top twenty, those are kids who grew up immersed in divine power.”
The atmosphere in the monitoring center was still relaxed and cheerful.
After all, it was an internal academy assessment, and the candidates were all familiar faces.
“By the way,” someone suddenly mentioned,
“I heard that District 12 has switched to a C+ level exam paper?”
“I heard so too,” a bespectacled invigilator glanced at Dean Zhang and lowered his voice and said,
“Those kids from the remote areas, they’re struggling with a C-level exam, let alone C+? Isn’t this too difficult for them?”
“Exactly,” another person chimed in, “Starting with a C+ level, can they even understand the exam properly?”
“Well, it’s really a waste of the exam paper, isn’t it?”
This was what everyone truly cared about.
Whether they passed the exam or not was not the issue; the focus was on the C+ level exam paper resources, which were being used by them.
As they were talking, a young invigilator suddenly frowned,
“Huh?”
Merge?!
“Are you kidding me?”
“The candidates from District 12 going up against the first-year students from the provincial academy, that’s like sending them to their deaths, isn’t it?”
But one of the more experienced invigilators sighed, “It’s hard to say. With that person’s temper, who can really guess?”
Everyone fell silent.
Clearly, “that person” referred to Dean Zhang.
Indeed, for instance this time, he changed his mind at the last minute and upgraded the District 12 exam paper from C level to C+.
It’s said that Dean Shen argued with him fiercely, but what was the outcome?
It still got changed to C+, didn’t it?
If Dean Zhang continues to be capricious, who knows, he might really merge the examination rooms.
If it really merges………………
Then the candidates from District 12 are probably really in trouble.
The first-year students from the provincial academy would probably just toy with them like they were vegetables, wouldn’t they?
Just at that moment, the prompt from the Shen Yan system sounded.
【System status update】
【The examination room in District 12 has been constructed】
【The examination room for the first year of the provincial academy has been constructed】
【The pre-link for the joint monitoring system has been established】
【The assessment system has been loaded】
In the center of the screen, two figures appeared simultaneously.
On the left was Dean Zhang Yuanhua, who was in charge of the candidates from District 12, and on the right was Dean Shen Deyong, who was in charge of the first year of the provincial academy.
The two glanced at each other, then both huffed and turned their heads away.
Clearly, neither was willing to submit to the other.
Until an old man dressed in a dark robe appeared in the center, his silver hair like snow, but his eyes bright and spirited.
This was the principal of the Lingxiao Province Divine Academy, Sheng Huan’an.
“Dean Zhang, Dean Shen,” the old man’s voice was deep and powerful, “I leave this to you both this time.”
Zhang Yuanhua and Shen Deyong both bowed respectfully and said in unison, “Yes!”
The principal’s figure only appeared for a moment before gradually dissipating, leaving only his last words echoing in the air:
“May the gods have mercy, may talents emerge continuously.”
【The final assessment of the Lingxiao Province Divine Academy begins!】
