Chapter 452: The Professor’s Theory
The professor was quite loud, attracting half the training hall to look over. He then lowered his voice, but his look of shock was still on his face. “What-what did you just say? Necromantic ditation? You’re preparing to learn it?”
“No, I think I already have a basic grasp. Of course, I’m not very good, but I’ve already passed the barrier of entry,” Xiao Lin explained; the most difficult part of necromantic diation was the barrier to start, so he wanted the old man to know that he was not speaking nonsense.
The professor fell silent for a mont before asking, “Who taught you?”
“I learned it myself.” Xiao Lin then added, “I got the book from the library. There are quite a few basic books on necromantic ditation there.”
The professor’s face twitched. “I know that. The books in the library were only bought back then due to my insistence, but they’re not for new students like you to read. Hold on, I rember where the books were placed in the library. Only second-years and above can get there. How did you see them?”
The old man grew more and more suspicious as he spoke, almost accusing Xiao Lin of lying.
Dawn Academy had never before started a course on necromantic diation, and the student union never planned to start it either. Xiao Lin had been curious as to why the library had books on it, but now he understood why. He did not say much, instead closing his eyes and activating Miracle before heading into the ditative world.
The glint showed in the old man’s eyes under his glasses. He had first been in disbelief, but quickly started to laugh. “Interesting! Interesting! I haven’t seen anything so fun for many years! Hahaha! Song Junlang, you recomnded to a decent prospect!”
The old man did not bother to hide his laughing. The training hall was busy dueling, and no one bothered to shift their gazes over. They had long since gotten used to the professor’s eccentric nature.
Xiao Lin once again opened his eyes, feeling a little tired from deactivating Miracle. He could still only rely on Miracle to be able to enter that special ditative world that could feel death energy.
“Why didn’t you continue? Are you tired?” Professor Zhang asked, concerned.
“You’re too noisy. I could not focus at all!” Xiao Lin said impolitely. Even though he already understood that the old professor in front of him was a hidden Boss-level figure, he still did not raise the proper sense of respect, especially after knowing the professor taught Song Junlang. Just like when he faced Departnt Head Song, even if he had so admiration for Song Junlang, that b*stard’s horrible personality of trying to trick him at every turn deserved no respect...
“Very good, since you’ve already managed the first step yourself, then let’s enter the second phase.” The professor thought for a mont before heading into the lounge, retrieving a thick notebook before flipping through the pages. As the notebook of a professor with decades of experience, that thing was undoubtedly extrely valuable.
“Planet Norma’s natural energy goes through the cycle of life as well; it’s the basic law of living things. Natural represents the start, elental represents the period of growth, and necromantic represents death. The elents are in their period of growth, so it’s hard to compress and combine them, but if we convert death energy into the elents, the problem would not exist, because to those that are completely not elents, we are their creatures, a mother-like existence.”
The professor explained as he flipped through the notebook, speeding up as he got more and more excited. His theory was extrely bold, and sothing that Xiao Lin had never heard before. He only regretted not bringing a notebook to take notes with.
Everyone else in the training half looked at each other, their eyes filled with envy. The professor’s notebook was a priceless treasure, and they had never seen him take it out in their years of study, yet he brought it out for that new student.
After an hour-long lecture, Professor Zhang only stopped when he realized his throat was dry. Looking at Xiao Lin who had his eyebrows furrowed in thought, his excitent cooled down, smiling in embarrassnt as he said, “I was a little too impatient. I forgot that you’re still a new student. Even if you have learned necromantic ditation, there are many theories that are too advanced for you. Don’t worry, we’ll take it slow...”
“Continue.” Xiao Lin was just working hard to digest the key points that the professor had said. Only when he was sure that he had everything morized did he raise his head, asking curiously, “Professor, are you done?”
“Did you manage to grasp what I said earlier?”
“Yes, more or less.”
“Don’t say it so vaguely! Elental sword aura is an extrely complicated undertaking. You can’t afford any carelessness!”
“Alright, I’ve grasped about 60% to 70%. You’ll have to let head back to properly digest the rest of it, but it’s fine. I’ve already morized it all.” Xiao Lin was not bragging. Ever since his Academic Genius had stepped into LV2, the effects were amazing. His mory, comprehension, or learning ability had all noticeably improved. He finally understood why that talent was SS-rank.
Seeing the old man’s look of disbelief, Xiao Lin could only helplessly say, “Professor, why don’t you test ?”
“Fine! I ntioned this just now. What is the ti fra of an elent’s creation until its death?”
“Normally it would take three to five minutes, but an active elent, due to the law of conservation, would use up its life to achieve higher explosiveness, which speeds up its destruction to around five seconds.”
“How long would compressing the elent limit the ti to?”
“Not more than one second. Otherwise, the compressed energy would be unable to be released after the elent dies and turns into death energy.”
“What is the basis of elental compression?”
“It is to condense new elents from death energy, creating new elents completely controlled by yourself.”
The two of them continued with the questions and answers, with Xiao Lin showing no pause at all. Each answer was given smoothly, proving that he had already properly absorbed everything into his head.
The old man was speechless, and his face twitched. He finally closed his notebook, looking like he wanted to utter a few words of praise, but he finally held it back, saying, “You’re better than what I thought. We’ll stop here for today. The next part of what you need to do is simple, to carry out those theories I ntioned just now in practice!”
