Chapter 102: My Talent

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Star City Academy, dormitory.

The sky gradually brightened, and a ray of morning light shone through the window into the house. Feng Qi woke up at this moment.

When he opened his eyes, he felt refreshed and his vision was exceptionally clear. He could even see the dust in the air very clearly.

The medicinal effect of the merit wine last night had not completely subsided until now. There was still some warmth in his body.

A bottle of Merit Wine could fill about four glasses.

Lin Ran drank one glass, Mu Qing drank two, and Feng Qi drank one glass and a little more.

At this moment, the energy progress bar in his body had already increased to 96.8%. As he continued to eat the food in the academy cafeteria, he would be able to fill up the progress bar in the next few days.

After returning to the dormitory last night, Feng Qi had specially checked the relevant content of the Merit Wine online.

He was very surprised by the results.

Excluding the additional value, the actual production price of this wine was almost a million dollars.

Although it was made with hundreds of spiritual materials and special processes, it was mass-produced after all. The final product would definitely be diluted.

Otherwise, the value of the Merit Wine brewed from hundreds of spiritual materials would at least exceed 100 million dollars.

Among these materials, there was no lack of precious spiritual plants worth more than a million dollars.

Feng Qi had only drunk one glass last night. That was worth about 250,000 dollars, but the effect it brought was very obvious.

From the initial 49.8%, his energy progress rose to 96.8%, an increase of 47%.

The price of the Twilight Wolf Rune Crystal was 880,000 dollars. The increase brought by eating it was about 105%. In other words, every 1% increase required about 8,380 dollars in cash.

The price of a glass of Merit Wine was about 250,000 dollars, and it brought a 47% increase. This meant that every 1% only cost 5,300 dollars.

In addition, the medicinal effect of the Merit Wine was not completely absorbed by the energy progress bar. A portion of it was also absorbed and digested by his body, causing his body to still have a warm feeling.

In comparison, the value of the Merit Wine was more than double that of the Twilight Wolf Rune Crystal.

This made Feng Qi very interested in the craftsmanship of the Merit Wine.

If he could concoct this wine mixed with spiritual materials himself, it would save him a lot of expenses in the future.

After washing up, Feng Qi sat at the desk and began to look up the craftsmanship of the Merit Wine.

However, he soon chose to give up.

It was not that he could not find the relevant content, but even if he found it, he did not have the ability to replicate it.

Here, a special profession, had to be mentioned

alchemist.

The Merit Wine was concocted by professional alchemists.

It looked like a very ordinary profession, but in fact, there was a lot of knowledge to learn to become an alchemist.

It was just like chemistry in reality.

Alchemists were different from cultivation techniques and spell researchers. They mainly studied the composition, nature, structure, and changes of the spiritual materials in the domain field. They aim to sublimate the effects through concoction.

Therefore, the first threshold to become a alchemist was to identify the detailed effects of the spiritual materials and spiritual plants in the domain field.

Feng Qi, who was slightly interested in this, looked up the relevant content of how to become an alchemist. Immediately, a dense catalog appeared on the screen.

, , , , characteristics of Spiritual Plants Produced in the Major Domain Fields (12 volumes):*, cSpiritual Plant Cultivation Techniques (eight volumes)>…

There were many things to learn to get started as an alchemist.

Especially if one wanted to become a professional alchemist, he needed to invest a lot of energy in his studies.

However, as long as one completed the introductory course, they could immediately be evaluated as a C-grade Human Elite.

They could maximize the effect of the resources produced by the domain fields and even mix the medicinal effects of the two spiritual plants to produce an effect of 1+1>2.

For example, a bottle of Merit Wine was worth about a million dollars.

However, after being refined by alchemists, the effect was twice as good as spiritual plants bought at the same price.

In addition to spiritual plants, rune crystals were also within the harmonization ability of alchemists. This profession could be said to one where you live and learn.

This was because humans would always find new spiritual materials and spiritual plants in their exploration of the domain fields. There would also be new domain fields that would appear and bring more new spiritual materials.

After understanding the alchemist system in detail, Feng Qi decisively chose to give up.

It was difficult to start as an alchemist, and it was even harder to master it.

He did not have lots of time to spend on studying.

Unless he obtained an unlimited memory function.

However, he remembered that there was a new student called Le Ping’an in Combat Class Three. It was written in his personal information that he was slightly proficient in the relevant knowledge of alchemists.

He decided to speak to him when school officially started and see if he could boost the effects of the Twilight Wolf Rune Crystal.

He was about to earn eight million dollars, but he would save as much money as he could. He was not rich enough to squander it at will.

There were still many things to spend money on in the future.

Closing the search page, Feng Qi stood up and stretched.

At this moment, the medicinal effect of the Merit Wine still lingered, making him feel warm and very comfortable.

After leaving the dormitory, he first went to the school cafeteria to meet Lin Ran and Mu Qing.

Then, he had a sumptuous breakfast.

During breakfast, Lin Ran’s face was rosy. Clearly, he had yet to completely absorb the effects of the Merit Wine.

Therefore, he brought a tissue with him so that he could wipe his nose when it bled.

As for Mu Qing, her condition was no different from usual.

Even Merit Wine with extremely powerful effects was nothing in front of her powerful digestive ability. At this moment, it had long been completely absorbed.

After breakfast, Feng Qi got up and prepared to for his cultivation techniques class.

At this moment, Lin Ran, who had just wiped the blood from his nose, looked up.

“Brother Qi, are you going to class? Let’s go together?”

Upon hearing this, Feng Qi could not help but roll his eyes.

“You’re already like this. Go back to the dormitory and rest well. It’s best if you make good use of your time to cultivate. Don’t waste the medicinal effect of the wine.”

Hearing his answer, Lin Ran nodded resentfully, clearly unwilling.

Feng Qi chose to ignore this.

Lin Ran’s passion for cultivation techniques had always been a headache for him, and he couldn’t find a solution for the time being.

Even if he told Lin Ran that his research on cultivation techniques would cause trouble in the future, he would not believe him.

He would never give up unless he tried it himself.

The effect of direct persuasion was minimal. He had to do so in a roundabout manner.

After leaving the cafeteria, Feng Qi went straight to the teaching building.

At this moment, the classroom of Cultivation Techniques Class One was already filled with students carrying notes. When they saw him arrive, they all smiled and greeted him.

After Feng Qi nodded in return, he walked into the classroom and came to the podium table.

The noisy classroom immediately fell silent when he arrived. This was also a way in which the students expressed their respect.

“Let’s start.”

Looking at the smiling Feng Qi, the students smiled as well and opened their notebooks.

“Today’s class will continue to focus on perfecting the concept of Planting Gods. I’ll talk about cultivation technique research and thinking in the second half of the class…”

The students listened attentively to his narration.

They cherished a teacher like Feng Qi who could improve their cognitive ability.

Other than the sound of his lecture, there was only the friction of pen and paper in the classroom. The learning atmosphere was strong.

Feng Qi also enjoyed the process of pouring out his knowledge.

Just like an author writing a novel, when his own ideas were recognized, all efforts would be worth it.

In the second half of the class, Feng Qi began to talk about the relevant content of the cultivation techniques research.

At this moment, a bespectacled female student in the classroom suddenly raised her hand.

“Yes, what’s the matter?” Feng Qi smiled and nodded.

Faced with this question, the female student immediately stood up and asked solemnly,

“Teacher Feng, there are so many students graduating from the cultivation technique research classes every year. Why are there very few people who can really produce results and successfully produce cultivation techniques? Could it be that we’re working hard in the wrong way? What should we do to be like you?”

Faced with the question, Feng Qi pondered for a moment and said,

“Talent is very important, but hard work is also very important, especially for people who don’t have talent in this aspect. Hard work is more important than everything.”

“Then what should a mediocre person like me do?” the female student asked curiously.

“Even if I tell you, you might not do as I say.” Feng Qi could not help but laugh.

“Please tell me what to do first.”

“Actually, this problem is very similar to when strategists gave advice to monarchs in ancient times. They would give the best, medium, and worst strategies, but monarchs generally would not choose the top strategies. Even if I tell all of you now, the best choice might not be implemented.”

Under the puzzled gazes of the students, Feng Qi continued,

“I’ll give you three choices now. Then, you can tell me what you will choose.”

“I’ll give you the best one first. From now on, abandon everything other than learning and stay away from games, pleasures, and lusts. Set an ambitious goal for yourself. In usual times, expand your studies and take a few more courses on cultivation techniques research and thinking. Repeatedly study the contents of every cultivation technique system update immediately… In addition, persevere in working out every day. Other than that, you can’t give up on cultivation. You have to find feel your way in the circulation of Spiritual Qi during cultivation.”

“As long as you persist like this for ten years, you will possess a mature cultivation technique research knowledge system and have the ability to try researching cultivation techniques.”

“Practice makes perfect. At the very least, you will certainly produce a few one-star cultivation techniques. If you’re talented, the upper limit will be higher.”

“Then, there’s the medium strategy. While having fun, take three hours of extracurricular time to study every day. You have to read three cultivation technique research and thought enhancement books every week You also have to take a cultivation techniques thinking intermediate certification certificate. If you continue this for five years, you will have your own independent thinking in the research of cultivation techniques. You can also try to conduct preliminary research on cultivation techniques.”

“Lastly, the worst strategy. Complete the courses arranged by the academy on time and occasionally taking time out to read and study in the library. It’s enough to guarantee that you can pass every test. If you encounter any problems in cultivation techniques research, ask a professional. Although your ability won’t improve, you can still obtain the information you want from others’ excellence.”

“I’ve given you three choices. I think you already have the answer in your hearts.”

Looking at the silent students, Feng Qi continued,

“The best choice is very simple, but it’s also very difficult. These three strategies can allow you to complete the personal ability assessment before graduation, but the distance you can go in the future is worlds apart.”

“The best strategy will allow you to have a deep understanding of the existing cultivation system and draw inferences from it.”

“The Secondary Strategy can allow you to establish independent thinking in the research of cultivation techniques. It will allow you to be at ease when researching cultivation techniques.”

“The bad plan can let you use the answers you find to understand why the cultivation technique research process is like this. You can pass various assessments, but it’s extremely difficult to carry out cultivation technique research.”

Hearing this, the students clearly understood what Feng Qi wanted to express.

“What about you, teacher?” The bespectacled female student mustered her courage and asked again.

“Me? Eat and drink when it’s time to and play whenever I want. My talent is so good that I don’t need to work hard anymore. The knowledge I create will also be what all of you strive to study and learn.”

Although saying this might hurt the students’ confidence, he could not lose his genius persona.

This was also the guarantee that he would continue to launch new cultivation techniques in the future.

He could only show off reluctantly.

Looking at the smiling Feng Qi, the students felt bitter and could not help but raise their middle fingers in their hearts.

Indeed, comparing oneself to others could anger one to death..
