Chapter 704: 704
"Originally, this project is usually carried out in Grade Two, but taking all factors into consideration, we decided to bring this project forward to raise your defensive abilities to some extent . "
Old Antique said, "So this summer, you must combine your spiritual root attribute with spells you're good at in order to design for yourselves a killing technique for survival . "
Special training in killing techniques was an additional exam in senior high that was compulsory for students to complete . Furthermore, the marks would be added to the overall grade for the college entrance exam, accounting for five percent of the total score . It might seem like a very small portion, but this five percent was often the key element in the cultivation college entrance exam!
What was the saying? Cultivators taking the college entrance exam was like all the king's horses and all the king's men crowding a footbridge… There were times when people couldn't get into the university they idolized because of a few marks .
But Wang Ling didn't care whether or not he could get into a university he idolized; he just wanted to find a university where he could live a smooth and stable life…
Because killing techniques were linked to the college entrance exam, Old Antique's expression turned a lot more serious . "You can start conceptualizing your killing technique during the summer camp this time . At your current stage, a killing technique doesn't necessarily mean a skill with tremendous power . Hence, we will assess your killing techniques this time based on their holistic integration of the three aspects of skill, survival, and power . "
After Old Antique said this, there was instantly a hubbub of discussion in the classroom . Innovating spells was very sophisticated learning, and designing a killing spell for your own use wasn't an easy task . For now, a killing spell at senior high level permitted students to use the underlying operational theory of other spells as reference .
There were two issues that needed to be taken into account .
One was spiritual root .
How powerful a spell was largely depended on the spiritual root attribute .
For example, those with the fire spiritual root were naturally strong . Those who had the water spiritual root had a strong self-healing and recovery ability, and those with the wood spiritual root had a natural advantage in AP (Attack Power) . Those who had the earth spiritual root had a greatly enhanced sense of nature, while the metal spiritual root represented a stable defensive ability .
A lot of people actually did understand this concept .
Thus, the most appropriate approach in choosing spells to learn was to select those that were more compatible with your spiritual root .
Of course, the Three Thousand Great Dao transcended the five elements .
As soon as Old Antique brought this matter up, Wang Ling started to ponder how on earth he was going to design a spell that looked low-key and unassuming, which was an enormously difficult problem for him .
"Since everyone has different spiritual root attributes, the school will arrange for all of you to take a combined test before the summer camp officially begins . You'll be able to clearly see the distribution of the five elements in your bodies . "
At that moment, Old Antique brought up another point, and that was the distribution of the five spiritual roots .
People with a single spiritual root were naturally more sought after, because they could straightaway focus on one attribute to cultivate . The rest were those with double spiritual roots, three spiritual roots and even four spiritual roots as well as five spiritual roots… If you had only two spiritual roots, that was still alright . The scariest was if you had all five spiritual roots jumbled together, with none being more prominent than the other .
Wang Ling himself had the five spiritual roots, but they weren't a random mix…
He had five innate and consummate spiritual roots! That meant he could freely adjust the distribution of the five elements in his body to achieve the outcome he wanted .
This was actually an advantage in Wang Ling's opinion, because it gave him a wide range of spells to choose from .
