Chapter 229 229. Seeds and Saplings

"Transcendent and professional, these two stages are generally referred to as [seeds]."

"The seeds have just been planted in the soil, and there is hope for the future, but no one expects you to be able to do anything right now."

“Not many people even care whether these seeds of yours can germinate.”

Looking at the students' expressions of either discontent or indifference in the classroom, the gray-haired old teacher smiled and did not continue to talk about the issue. Instead, he turned around and wrote a few big words on the blackboard.

Seed, shaping, integration, great source.

After these four phrases, the old teacher added text and explained in a slow and clear voice.

[Seed]: The first realm, generally refers to all the performances before the extraordinary professional, obtaining the power belonging to the Taixu realm, inducing talent, surpassing the limits of the human body, and constructing a new energy system in the body.

[Shaping]: The second realm, divided into nine stages. This stage is for the extraordinary to perfect and replenish the energy system in the body, and it is also the inevitable experience of the lower races when they evolve upward. Every time any creature perfects a part of its own energy system, it can make a corresponding part of its own body evolve.

[Integration]: Unify the ten major systems in the human body, achieve a complete balance between body, will and soul, greatly make up for one's own shortcomings, and at the same time purify and enhance one's own abilities.

[Big Source]: At this point, the small source in the body begins to interact with the big source outside, and the small source and the big source influence each other. You can directly draw energy from the outside world, and you can mobilize the vitality of heaven and earth with just a move of your hands and feet. With one point of force, you can leverage ten points of the power of heaven and earth. The whole person is a huge human-shaped bipedal self-propelled energy source.

As the old teacher introduced the levels of extraordinary professionals, some students had new questions, "Teacher, why are there only four levels? I heard there are at least nine levels."

"There are not nine levels. There are only eight levels at the moment. The ninth level has not been confirmed yet, but there is no way to disprove it either."

It seemed that this was not the first time that the old teacher had faced such a question. He answered the student's question slowly and leisurely, "As for the fact that I only introduce four levels to you, it is because knowing these is enough for you."

"Some of them are not even considered as [seeds], while others have changed their jobs. However, judging from your situation, it is just like that. Knowing that you can reach a higher level will only make you unrealistic."

"If you want to know the subsequent levels, go to [Integration] first. [Seeds] and [Shaping] are everywhere in Infinite City, but after all, they are just seeds. [Integration] can be regarded as a sapling."

As he spoke, the old teacher put his hands on the podium, lowered his body, and looked at the students below with scrutinizing eyes.

"Please note that all students who may be the chosen ones of various schools or regions before coming here, no matter how precious the seeds are, they are sold by the bunch, not by the seed. Seeds that cannot germinate are no different from waste."

"No matter how cheap the saplings are, they are sold by the piece. Maybe the saplings are fragile, but they have the potential to change some places."

The students in the audience did not speak. Some lowered their heads in thought, some were indignant, and some pretended nothing had happened.

The old teacher's words were quite straightforward, and at least most people could understand the meaning of his words.

In the Infinite City, the one who has just changed his job is just a seed that has not yet sprouted and no one knows what kind of seed it is.

Even when it reaches the [Shaping] stage, it is just a seed that has just sprouted.

For humans as a whole, seeds are abundant in quantity.

Only when you reach the level of [integration] can people look at you differently.

At this time, the bell rang for the end of get out of class. The old teacher did not intend to delay the class and announced the end of get out of class without hesitation. No homework was assigned. For this old teacher, this course to supplement the basic knowledge of new students had four classes a week and was repeated every half a month.

It is entirely up to students to decide whether to come or not. If they feel that the course is not helpful, there will be no punishment for not coming.

Infinite City has no mandatory requirements for students’ class hours and is even very relaxed.

As long as the students have enough credits, no one cares whether they attend classes or not.

Rather than being an institution of higher learning, Infinite City is more like a training base where students can come and go freely.

After the get out of class was dismissed, students left the classroom one after another, and soon only one student was left packing up his notes.

The classroom had to be closed after use, and the old teacher had no intention of urging the student to hurry up. He remembered that this was one of the few students who took notes in class.

When passing by the old teacher, Mo Hao stopped and asked, "Teacher, I have seen records of professionals with dual energy systems or even multiple energy systems. If it is this kind of people, will the two levels of [Shaping] and [Integration] be different from others?"

"Also, I want to know that since there is a dual energy system, are there also triple energy systems, quadruple energy systems, or even more multiple energy systems?"

The student asked a question that was not in the lesson plan, but the old teacher did not refuse to answer it.

Instead, after carefully considering his words, he answered the student, "First, to answer your question about the plural energy system, the research reports released by various countries have confirmed the existence of the three-energy system. However, based on the characteristics of those countries, there is reason to believe that the four-energy system does exist, but the relevant research has not yet been deciphered."

"We cannot say that more complex energy systems do not exist. However, considering that the three energy systems have already begun to interfere with each other, the possibility of more complex energy systems existing can only be said to be less than one in a billion."

"As for the difference between the two levels of [Shaping] and [Integration] of the people you mentioned..."

"They will be stuck in these two levels for a long time, because not only do they need to perfect and supplement the energy channels that are twice or even three times as many as others, but they also have to be careful that the channels they construct do not interfere with each other. This is a huge workload."

"It's just that once they complete the work at these two levels, while there is almost no obstacle at the [Dayuan] level, the energy storage at the same level has a great advantage."

……

After continuing to ask some questions about the multi-energy system, Mo Hao bowed slightly to the old teacher to thank him for his answers.

Looking at Mo Hao's departing back, the old teacher moved his body uncomfortably, the clothes on his back had already been soaked with sweat.

Where did this student come from? He looks so scary and murderous.

None of the demons who killed thousands of people that I had met before had this level of evil spirit.

I almost thought today was over.

Thanks to [zaku2700] and [It doesn’t matter, just start] for their rewards.
