Just as the students were busy whispering to each other, the walls before the podium slid open. Instantly the entire student body including Theon tensed up!
They could’t help but question themselves if this was a test that had been set by the academy to test their reactions.
If it was, they were ready to react at any ti.
Within the darkness of the opened door and under the throat gripping silence of the morning Hall, the sound of footsteps reverberated through the entire hall. It might seem light, but to the students, it was like their hearts were being pounded by hamrs as the footstep got closer. Theon was no exception either! He was forcefully calming his nerves which were why he didn’t reveal any signs of panic.
In the next second though, the figure erged from within the darkness as the light rays curved and reflected off the body of the figure, finally revealing who it was.
It was an astonishingly beautiful lady in a very provocative dress. Her top revealed a smooth and delicate neckline with clear brown succulent skin. The straps hung by her clear bronze shoulder as the top stops right above her navel, showing off her tummy with flat but defined abs.
She wore a shirt that revealed her thick curvy legs which were so alluring most of the boys and girls in the group forgot to breathe. Her beautiful face was small and delicate and her eyebrows were perfectly streamlined. She looked more like a drawing that real life with her beauty which spiked the jealousy of the many female students.
Her eyes were deep grey and they seem to transform to a light green colour as she focused on the tablet before her. She didn’t seem to be old as she appeared to be in her early twenties, but the wisdom in her eyes said otherwise.
The entire class had gone silent at this point. The lady finally looked at the students before her but her eyes contained indifference as though she had done this a thousand tis.
The wall behind her closed and a transparent screen with a few words appeared on it.
’Advanced Talent Cultivation: The 108 ridian System.’
"Call Instructor Vera and let’s begin the lecture." Her voice was clear and dominant as she spoke.
"Today we will discuss the fundantal pathway to maximizing your genetic talents, regardless of their rank from F to S-class. Every cultivator possesses 108 special ridians that connect directly to their Primal Bone which is considered the core source of all talent-based abilities."
She gestured to a holographic display that appeared above the podium, showing a human figure with glowing pathways throughout the body.
"Your Primal Bone contains the essence of your awakened talent. To properly nourish and strengthen this bone, you must systematically open these 108 ridians. Each ridian that you successfully unlock will improve three crucial aspects of your cultivation."
The hologram shifted to show energy flowing through various pathways as she continued.
"First: Enhanced control over your specific ability. An F-rank talent with twenty opened ridians will demonstrate far superior precision and efficiency compared to the sa F-rank talent with only five opened ridians."
"Second: Improved physical constitution. Each ridian opening strengthens your body’s capacity to channel primal energy, resulting in enhanced durability, speed, and overall physique."
"Third: Purification of your primal energy. As more ridians open, your energy becos more refined and potent, allowing for techniques that would be impossible with crude, unrefined power."
As Theon listened intently, Instructor Vera’s tone beca more serious.
"But the ultimate goal transcends these individual improvents. Legend speaks of those rare individuals who have managed to open all 108 ridians. It is said that when this pinnacle is achieved, the heavens and earth themselves resonate with the cultivator’s talent."
A murmur of amazent rippled through the classroom as students contemplated her words switch seriousness in their faces.
"At the 108th ridian, thought becos action. No gestures, no energy gathering, no preparation ti - a simple ntal command activates your talent at its maximum potential. The wielder essentially becos a divine being within their area of expertise, capable of manipulating matter itself in accordance with their talent’s nature."
She paused, as she allowed her words to sink into the students brain.
"Even our academy’s Dean, one of the most powerful cultivators in the continent, has only managed to open 80 ridians after decades of intense cultivation. Each ridian is like climbing an impossible mountain - the higher you ascend, the more treacherous and demanding the path becos."
The holographic display shifted to show the increasing difficulty curve, with each ridian represented as a progressively more daunting obstacle.
"The first ten ridians might be opened through diligent practice and proper technique. ridians eleven through thirty require exceptional talent and resources. Beyond the fiftieth ridian, only prodigious geniuses with access to legendary cultivation resources can hope to advance."
"And past the seventieth ridian?" She smiled grimly. "That realm belongs to those who have transcended normal human limitations entirely."
Theon felt his excitent building as he absorbed this information. With his quest system and enhanced learning abilities, perhaps he could achieve what others considered impossible.
"Now, the practical application," Instructor Vera continued. "Opening ridians requires specific ditation techniques, precise energy circulation patterns, and often the consumption of rare cultivation resources. The process is dangerous - a single mistake can result in permanently damaged energy pathways or worse."
She gestured to another display showing various ditation positions and energy flow diagrams.
"We will begin with the foundational techniques necessary to sense your first ridian. Rember, this process cannot be rushed. Attempting to force a ridian opening before you’re properly prepared is a guaranteed path to crippling yourself."
As the lecture continued with detailed instruction on preliminary ridian sensing techniques, Theon created a ntal quest: "Master the foundational ridian opening theory presented in this class."
[Ding! Quest Created]
[Objective: Fully Comprehend ridian Opening Fundantals]
[Reward: Open 10 ridians]
[Accept Quest? Y/N]
"Accept,"Theon spoke in his mind and then instantly and actively listened, letting himself absorb every single detail of the lecture and not missing a single point.
