165: Compatibility
With the system's reward, Shen Yi felt that his control over the Thunder Ability had improved significantly. If he were to charge a phone now, he felt he wouldn't damage the battery at all.
He could clearly sense the Lei (Thunder) elements in the surrounding spiritual energy.
This made him very curious. Compatibility, it seemed, was about increasing the control over one's Ability.
After a brief thought, the two had just entered the classroom when Dong Yichun also walked in.
The other students, seeing Lu Denglong kicked but acting as if nothing had happened, all looked at Shen Yi.
"Today, we will continue to learn Forging Body Technique. After our secondary awakening, when we came into contact with Forging Body Technique, did everyone think that Forging Body Technique was only for enhancing physical fitness?"
"If you thought that, then you were wrong. Our current practice of Forging Body Technique is to enable you to comprehend 'Intent.'"
"Intent?"
The students below showed confusion on their faces.
Shen Yi also heard of this 'Intent' thing for the first time.
"Do you remember what I told you before, that at the third stage, you need to go through three phases of refinement before you can officially enter the fourth stage?"
"The first stage is secondary awakening, the second stage is Forging Body Technique, and the third stage is Intent."
"The so-called Intent can also be understood as the compatibility of your Ability."
When Shen Yi heard about compatibility, his heart stirred. The system's reward just now was compatibility.
Does this system have the Ability to foresee the future?
"When you can increase your Ability compatibility by one percent, that counts as getting started."
"Let me show you what Intent is."
Dong Yichun stood there without any movement, but the aura around him grew stronger and stronger.
The students in the classroom felt as if they were deeply immersed in a sea of fire, with flames burning their souls.
Shen Yi, however, was not affected in the slightest. This Intent was somewhat similar to his secondary awakening, Soul-Scorching Flame, so he remained unaffected.
The other students' faces turned pale, and some had even collapsed to the ground.
A mere ten-odd seconds felt like an eternity to them.
As Dong Yichun's aura receded, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
They gasped for air, as if they had just experienced a great battle.
Only Shen Yi stood there, his expression unchanged. Dong Yichun gave him a deep look but said nothing.
"This is Intent, but this is my Intent. Everyone's Intent is different. If one can comprehend one hundred percent of Intent, then even without an Ability Technique, every attack, every punch he makes, would be comparable to an Ability Technique."
"Teacher, can anyone reach one hundred percent Intent?"
A student asked.
"Our Huaxia doesn't have anyone who has reached one hundred percent Intent yet. It is said that if one can reach one hundred percent, he will completely control that Ability, and anyone using that Ability in front of him will have no effect."
"Wow~"
Hearing Dong Yichun's words, the students in the classroom were all very surprised.
"Don't aim too high. Being able to reach five percent Intent before entering the fourth stage is already considered a genius."
"Many people, even in the fourth stage, might not be able to cultivate this Intent."
He poured a basin of cold water on the students, hoping to make them study diligently.
"Next, we will discuss how to cultivate Intent."
The rest of the class was spent explaining how to improve Ability compatibility.
The simplest method was that the school had a simulation room where various Ability scenarios could be simulated.
"Alright, that's all for this lesson. As for the simulation room, you can go there yourselves."
After the class finished, Dong Yichun left the classroom, and the remaining students were still immersed in his words.
Shen Yi looked at his attribute panel and saw another progress bar.
【Thunder Ability Compatibility: 10 / 1000】
【Fire Ability Compatibility: 0 / 1000】
Looking at the progress bar, this meant his Intent had already reached one percent.
He wanted to go and see what kind of place the simulation room, as mentioned by Dong Yichun, actually was.
Leaving the Combat Department classroom, he asked a few students and learned the exact location of the simulation room.
The simulation room was at the very back of the school. For first-year students, very few came here.
At the entrance of the simulation room, he took out his student ID, swiped it, and walked in.
There were many small rooms inside, and there was a monitor above the door of each room.
If someone was inside, it would display "In Use."
There were probably dozens of rooms here, but Shen Yi walked around and didn't see any empty rooms.
Then, he went up the stairs to the second floor. The second floor also had many small rooms, but they were still all occupied.
The simulation room looked like it had three floors from the outside. He went up to the third floor, and all the rooms there were also in use.
When he walked to the far right, there was a glass door. The door was closed, and he could see stairs behind it.
"Isn't there only three floors? How can there be a fourth floor?"
Shen Yi was puzzled. From the outside, he clearly remembered that the simulation room only had three floors, so how could there be another door here?
He tried pushing it, but the door didn't budge. Above the door, there was a card slot.
He took out his student card and swiped it.
【Beep~ No permission to enter.】
"Damn it!"
Shen Yi cursed. This place wouldn't let him in.
He put his student card in his pocket, ready to turn and leave.
Before leaving, he didn't give up and put his student card into the slot again.
"Click!"
The door lock opened.
"Huh? What's going on?"
It wasn't working just now, but when he was about to leave, he decided to try one last time, and it opened directly.
As he was about to put his student card into his pocket, he saw another card stuck to the back of it.
It was the Exotic Treasure Pavilion VIP card that Xu Zhongxing had given him in the Mission Hall before.
"Could it be this card?"
He didn't enter but closed the door again. After hearing the locking sound, he took out the golden card again and swiped it.
"Click!"
The door opened again.
"This..."
Shen Yi was a bit confused. Wasn't this a pharmacy membership card? How could it open this place?
But he didn't think too much about it. Since it opened, he would go in and see if the second floor was being used.
He walked up the stairs. The space here was significantly smaller than downstairs, but the environment was much better than downstairs. As soon as he entered, he could feel spiritual energy rushing towards him.
The richness of the spiritual energy was comparable to that in the cultivation room on the Living Department side.
There were only five or six rooms inside, but fortunately, all the rooms here showed that they were empty.
He opened a door and walked in.
As soon as he entered, he felt as if he was in an Otherworld.
This room seemed like another world, hazy and surrounded by nothingness.
As he entered and closed the door, he couldn't even see the door when he looked back.
However, Shen Yi didn't think too much about it. This should be a characteristic of the simulation room.
Then, a voice appeared in this space.
