The advanced training course on Qinggang's mental mutation system was still ongoing, but both the atmosphere and the content had changed somewhat.
Originally, this training course had only been aimed at problems concerning individual soldiers, organizing the setbacks Qinggang had recently encountered while advancing the Heavenly Kingdom Plan, and sharing materials the Eclipse Research Institute had only recently decrypted to deepen the researchers' understanding.
However, because Professor Bai—everyone assumed it was Professor Bai—had immediately explained a great many terrifying things, both the ability users and the researchers felt a vague sense of panic. Everyone was actively thinking about how to sort out and discuss all these problems clearly, then summarize a reasonable direction at the end.
Without that direction, the things Professor Bai had described alone would have been enough to bring Qinggang's research to a halt.
They might even trigger widespread panic.
Besides that, the course arrangements had also allowed observant people to notice something interesting.
In theory, this training should have separated the researchers from the ability users.
After all, Professor Bai's initial lecture had mentioned the shackles facing ability users. No one could guarantee that ability users would not choose to hunt others from their own group in their efforts to pursue the ultimate goal. From that perspective, ability users possessed an innate danger, and their understanding of mental mutation should instead have been restricted further to reduce the risks.

"If a fire is going to burn, covering it with your hands won't put it out. It will only make the flames stronger."
After pondering, Professor Bai earnestly told the Qinggang researchers, "The more things are like this, the more careful we must be."
"We and the ability users are not two
