Starting with Proficiency Panel-Chapter 529: See the real deal tomorrow at noon (new book content)
What delighted him was that he could finally start formally learning magic.
"Surname: Li Qing
Tier: Junior Apprentice
Skills: Basic Meditation Technique (Entry Level)
Talent: Identification Skill (Level 1)
Character Evaluation: A crafty human villain with a hint of power!!!"
The character panel showed his tier as a Junior Apprentice, and the Basic Meditation Technique had reached Entry Level.
Not bad.
Li Qing subconsciously glanced at the mirror beside him and then went silent; just now, to condense magic, he had exhausted a lot of his spirit and physical strength.
In the mirror, his reflection looked as thin as a stick, as if a gust of wind could knock him down.
In fact, before condensing magic, the Meditation Skill greatly consumed spirit and physical strength, and the process of condensing magic also consumed a lot of blood and spirit.
That's why most mages look very thin.
Of course, once the magic is condensed, it starts to nourish the body, warding off all illnesses and allowing him to live to the body's limit, should he not advance further.
Need to train the body a bit...
A thought flashed through his mind, then he turned his attention to the book "Magic Theory".
The book "Magic Theory" introduced quite a bit of the most basic magic applications.
He had been yearning for it earlier; now with magic power, he could try the most basic spells inside.
But Li Qing still restrained himself, opening the door of the safe house and leaving to return to reality.
After class at Gray Magic Academy, you could stay for another twenty-four hours, after which you'd be forcibly teleported back to your original world.
Exhausted, he fell asleep as soon as he touched the bed.
...
...
When he awoke, it was ten in the morning the next day. Groggy-eyed, Li Qing took out his phone and checked.
Sunday, ten fourteen.
Struggling on the bed for a while, Li Qing finally found a comfortable position to start his daily meditation.
Now that magic power had condensed, what Li Qing needed to do was to constantly increase the total amount of magic power, and to increase magic power, enhancing his spiritual power still couldn't be ignored, which was the fundamental source.
Therefore, the "Basic Meditation Technique" essentially still strengthens his spiritual power.
The stronger the spirit, the higher the magic power limit, and the faster the speed of increase in total.
Four hours later, Li Qing slowly opened his eyes, energetically getting out of bed.
After condensing magic, the Meditation Skill wouldn't deplete him, but instead, fulfill him, making his Essence, Qi, and Spirit full.
This meant that if necessary, he could fully replace sleep with meditation in the future.
He went downstairs to a familiar breakfast shop and ordered a bowl of spicy noodles.
Upon seeing Li Qing, the shop owner exclaimed while busying himself, "Little Li, you look very thin these days, are you dieting?"
Li Qing replied, "Indeed, busy with blind dates lately, aren't the young girls nowadays keen on the bone-thin beauty, so I am just improving myself."
While casually responding, he was still thinking about his first magic 'Mage's Hand'.
If it had to be described in a specific way, it was somewhat akin to the psychic power of telekinesis.
Most magic can't do without four movements: analysis, construction, solidification, release.
The stronger one's magic power, the stronger the power exhibited by the Mage's Hand.
While eating noodles, Li Qing's mind was slowly analyzing according to the detailed introduction of the Mage's Hand in "Magic Theory".
After finishing the noodles and paying the bill, Li Qing bought a notebook and pen, squatting by the roadside, writing and drawing.
An hour later, Li Qing frowned tightly, looking at the maze-like marks on his notebook.
How these magic effect deduction nodes resemble the spatial three-dimensional coordinates and second-order derivatives in advanced mathematics.
Honestly, after seven or eight years since college, having not applied this advanced math in real work, it had long been forgotten, especially the things from specialized mathematics departments.
He remained silent, looking up at the sky, his face somewhat bitter.
Back then, he embodied a failure in mathematics, lingering around sixty to seventy points even in high school.
Does he have to go back to school again?
His expression flickered with indecision, hesitating for a long while before heaving a deep sigh, patting his head and getting up, then heading towards the district library. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦
Half an hour later, Li Qing, looking at the somewhat old high school math textbooks in front of him, had a face full of helplessness.
Gently trembling, he opened the first page, took a deep breath, calmed his mind with meditation, then opened his eyes calmly and looked at the textbook.
When one is fully invested, time flies fast, and when Li Qing raised his head again, four hours had already passed.
With surprise and delight on his face, he closed the semester one curriculum for First-Year High School.
Mad, it didn't require any effort at all, even allowing deductions of formulas needed further on.
This insight fueled Li Qing's enthusiasm, and he excitedly bought the entire high school mathematics course textbook, and a few sets of "Three-Year College Entrance Exam, Five-Year Simulation" test papers, and left the library, found a place to have dinner, and finally rested after returning to the rental room.
Lying in bed, after meditating for two hours, Li Qing energetically opened his eyes again and commenced studying the textbook.
If he had this kind of brain back then, choosing between Qinghua and Peking University was just a choice question.
This Basic Meditation Technique was quite magical. As the Light Ball formed, it not only enhanced his spiritual power but also increased his intelligence.
If only the character panel could show his Attributes.
Li Qing thought, and during a break, he subconsciously opened his character panel to have a look.
"Surname: Li Qing
Tier: Junior Apprentice
Intelligence: 3
Physical Strength: 0.8
Skills: Basic Meditation Technique (Entry Level)
Talent: Identification Skill (Level 1)
Character Evaluation: A crafty human villain embracing evil!!!"
The character evaluation had changed a bit, but that wasn't the focus.
The character panel he saw indeed changed with his thoughts, it seemed that summoned devil had completely turned into a system panel.
Hence, it should take 1 as a median value for judgment, with the average of ordinary people being 1, fluctuating around it.
Having twice the intelligence of ordinary people gave him a remarkably agile mind, but his physical strength seemed a bit lacking.
While Li Qing felt pleasantly surprised about this, he also found it reasonable—a random Level 0 magic required extensive calculations, deductions, analysis; without sufficient intelligence support, he wouldn't even know the significance of the magic flow nodes.
Analysis, construction, solidification, release.
The four indispensable steps of using magic.
If logical thinking isn't great, understanding these things would be quite difficult.
Not until past eleven forty did Li Qing reluctantly put the textbook down, finally regaining the fervor for learning from long ago during these past few days.
