"Chip, how long will it take me to practice the Ultimate Meditation Technique?"
[The main gene can hold up to 37 solidified runes, far exceeding the 24 runes of an ordinary first-class apprentice.]
[By practicing other meditation methods, the host will complete the advancement 3 years and 9 months earlier.]
[The subject's genetic potential is extremely high; practicing the Ultimate Meditation Technique will allow them to reach the pinnacle of their level. Drawback: The excessively high genetic potential requires a significantly longer time to develop.]
[Overall Recommendation: Practitioner practice is not recommended]
Looking at the chip's conclusion, Green sighed inwardly. Reaching the genetic limit was certainly a good thing, meaning his full potential could be developed. But as the saying goes, too much of a good thing can be bad. The extreme meditation method was still too extreme, and he had fallen into the demonic path.
"Ms. Lillian, may I ask you a question?" After seeing the result from the chip, Green had already figured out a way to refuse.
"Yes, child," Lillian replied with a smile.
Green looked at Lillian, took a deep breath, and voiced his question.
"Teacher Lillian, I would like to ask if anyone who practices the Ultimate Meditation Technique can reach the pinnacle of East Coast wizards?" Green's words were like a fatal blow, and Lillian, who had been smiling, gradually turned serious.
A sigh escaped.
"No!"
Lillian's answer did not surprise Green. The Ultimate Meditation Method takes longer and longer to reach the later stages. It is not designed for short-lived species like humans, but rather for individuals with naturally longer lifespans.
After answering Green, Lillian seemed to have all her strength drained away, and she didn't say anything more to persuade Green.
Seeing Green fall silent, Lillian knew that Green had made his decision. Even if the Ultimate Breathing Technique could increase the probability of a breakthrough, so what? There were still no people who had reached the peak, which was the biggest drawback.
"Alright, Blue, take Green away! Once at the academy, let Green choose another school of thought." Lillian sat down again and said to the old wizard named Blue beside her.
Blue walked up to Green, pointed to the door, and gestured for Green to leave with him.
"Um, Ms. Lillian, could you teach me the apprentice part of the Ultimate Meditation Method so I can try it out first?"
Green did not leave at Blue's signal, but suddenly raised his head and spoke sincerely to the wizard Lillian.
Lillian didn't react much to these words, but a book suddenly appeared in her hand and then, as if controlled by an unknown force, slowly floated towards Green.
"Thank you, teacher." After receiving the apprentice portion of the Ultimate Meditation Method, Green quickly bowed to express his gratitude to his teacher.
Green's thanks went unanswered; Lillian remained seated with her eyes closed.
Seeing this, Green and Blue left the room.
After the two left, Lillian slowly opened her eyes, her eyes revealing sadness.
"Is the Limit School coming to an end with my generation?"
After Green had followed Blue a considerable distance out of the room, Blue, who had been walking ahead, suddenly turned back to look at Green and said something.
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Bru, and I'm your senior. I'm currently a second-class apprentice. Also, I'm only 22 years old. Don't misunderstand my age just because I look older."
Hearing Blue's words, Green stared in astonishment at the old man before him. This man with gray hair and sagging skin, you're telling me he's only 22?
"Yes, senior." Although Green was filled with shock, he still responded to Blue.
"Don't be surprised. Wizard experiments are extremely dangerous. I look like this because of a mistake during the experiment. I was exposed to strong radiation, which caused my skin to age rapidly. But my potion of youth will be ready soon, and then you'll be able to see me as a handsome young man."
Once he started talking, Bru was very talkative and didn't stop. It seemed that his appearance had changed due to a problem with the experiment, which was why he had become somewhat silent.
As Bru moved forward, he introduced his school of thought to Green, exaggerating its merits.
Green realized that they were after his talent and wanted to recruit him into their school of thought.
Green naturally wouldn't make a decision so soon. Although he kept agreeing with Blue, he didn't actually agree.
Blue understood Green's thoughts and didn't try to persuade him further. In Blue's view, as long as a good impression was made now, given the strength of his school, Green would naturally be compared to his school once he arrived at the academy, and it would be easy to bring Green into his school.
To build rapport, Blue introduced Green to some basic information about the academy. The White House Academy comprises different schools of thought, each based on a unique meditation method, and each selecting students accordingly. Upon arrival at the academy, Green and his group would undergo further testing to determine their individual talents and which meditation method best suited them, allowing them to choose the appropriate school.
Isn't this just like the university system in my previous life? The first selection is based on academic ability, which is a passing score. The second selection is based on major selection. Students choose different majors based on their abilities. The whole process is no different from the college entrance examination and university admission process in my previous life.
"This is your room. We'll be spending the next three months at sea, so get ready. I'm going back to continue recruiting." Blue led Green to a room, informed him of the entire journey's duration, and then turned to leave to continue recruiting.
Watching Blue walk away, Green opened the door and went inside.
The sudden burst of bright light momentarily blinded Green.
The room was very spacious and luxurious, clearly not an ordinary room. It was located on the upper deck, with light streaming in through the windows. Unidentified gems were scattered throughout the room; Green could tell they were there, and they subtly emitted a glow, likely for nighttime lighting.
In addition, the decoration of the bed, desk and bookshelves is exceptionally luxurious, using the finest wood and intricately carved patterns.
However, Green didn't care about the environment; this stuff couldn't be eaten. Green directly took out the Ultimate Meditation Technique, quickly recorded it into the chip, and began meditating.
