East Peak Military Academy's first special training class, Lin Yi did not have any red tape opening ceremony.
He appeared in the large lecture hall on time, stood in front of everyone, and glanced at the longing faces.
"The special training class only does one thing: breakthrough."
Lin Yi's opening statement was extremely concise, "All formalism is a waste of time."
"Now let's start the first item: deep training of source energy control."
Lin Yi stretched out the index finger of his right hand, and a soft blue source energy light group instantly condensed on the fingertip, like a beating elf.
"Condensing source energy is the entry point."
Before he finished speaking, he saw that the light source began to collapse inward at a speed visible to the naked eye, becoming smaller and smaller, but the light became more solid and dazzling.
Eventually, it turned into a blue light spot that was only the size of a soybean but emitted amazing energy fluctuations.
"Compression is preliminary control. I think that by now you have practiced the most basic compression, and you should have already mastered it." Lin Yi continued.
Then, the light spot that was compressed to the extreme was slowly elongated and deformed, and finally formed a thin source energy blade, floating quietly above his fingertips.
"Shaping is the embodiment of fine control."
"I guess it won't be difficult for you to turn it into the shape of a blade." Lin Yi paused, then gave a higher goal, "If you are confident enough in your control, you can try the next step."
I saw the source energy blade changing further, continuing to become narrower and thinner, and finally turned into a blue light as thin as a hair, reaching about a foot in length, twisting slightly like a living creature, exuding a heart-stopping Sharpness feeling.
"Stretch it into a thread. A thread is more difficult to control than a blade, but requires more understanding and application of force."
After the demonstration, Lin Yi dispersed the source energy.
He looked at the academic staff aside and nodded.
Soon, several assistants came over carrying several large boxes and distributed a square, tender tofu and an ordinary porcelain plate to each student.
The students looked at each other, wondering what Principal meant.
Lin Yi's voice sounded again, "Your goal in the first stage is to use the method just demonstrated to condense the source energy blade or silk thread to cut this piece of tofu." He pointed at the tofu in the hands of the students, "Cut it into thin strips. It needs to be uniform in thickness. Just follow the specifications of "Wensi Tofu"."
"Wensi Tofu?"
Some students exclaimed in a low voice that it was a dish that required extremely high knife skills, which meant that the tofu shreds had to be as thin as hair!
"That's right."
A smile appeared on Lin Yi's face, "It just so happens that we have recently recovered a large soybean product processing plant, and the tofu supply is absolutely sufficient. But, in order not to waste food, from today on, this will be your lunch and dinner for the next period of time. Fried tofu, fried tofu, mapo tofu, and tofu soup until you pass this stage."
As soon as he said this, everyone looked at the trembling tofu in their hands and couldn't help but look at each other.
This training method is too practical.
"Let's get started."
Lin Yi said no more, walked aside, stood with his hands behind his hands, his eyes were as bright as lightning, and began to patrol.
The training ground immediately fell silent, leaving only the sounds of the students concentrating and trying to condense source energy.
At first, the situation was full of surprises.
Some people used too much force, and as soon as the source energy blade touched the tofu, the tofu and the plate exploded together. Some people had unstable control, and the blades suddenly became larger and smaller, and the cut tofu strips were as thick as fingers; some others were probably non-military students, and they could not even condense the stable blades, and could only create irregular light groups.
Lin Yi Walk slowly and don't give Time Stop points.
"Zhou Yuxuan, too anxious, not compressed enough, scattered but not gathered."
"Chen Yu, the mind is too tight, the source energy flow is stagnant, and it feels like looseness but not looseness."
"Zhao Gang, it has enough strength, but lacks toughness. It is easy to break if it is strong. Try to feel the fluidity of the source."
"Adams, your understanding is biased. It's not that the sharper the better, it's more condensed."
His guidance is often to the point, pointing directly to the key points, making students enlightened, but it requires a lot of effort to understand and correct.
For a time, the classroom was filled with a tense and focused atmosphere, as well as the occasional soft sound of a disk shattering.
The whole morning passed quickly, and no one could successfully cut the tofu into thin strips. Most of the students were left with a mess of tofu residue in front of them.
And just after class, Nie Chang came over.
"Principal Lin, Equipment Department are very efficient. The first batch of fifty sets of Virtual Helmet has been delivered. Minister Zhao specifically called and said that if there is still demand in the future, it can be arranged for the second batch of production, but that will have to wait until next month."
"Okay, let's go take a look." Lin Yi nodded.
The two came to the warehouse and saw fifty helmets with shining metallic luster neatly placed in special boxes.
The accompanying Equipment Department technician explained how to use it in detail.
"Commander Lin, after wearing it, press the start button on the side, and the consciousness will be connected to the system. The initial space is blank, and there will be a boot program. The specific functions need to be set through your administrative rights."
Lin Yi immediately ordered, "Install all these helmets into the reserved empty classroom in the No. 3 teaching building. From now on, it will be named "Virtual Classroom". The management will be based on the old school computer room, and special personnel will be arranged to be responsible for maintenance and registration."
"Yes!"
Equipment installation and debugging was completed quickly.
Lin Yi picked up a helmet and said to Nie Chang, "Let me experience it first."
He sat on a specially designed seat and put on his helmet.
The inside of the helmet fit comfortably, and everything went dark. Then, Lin Yi pressed the start button on the side.
A slight buzzing sound sounded in his consciousness, and the next moment, he found himself standing in a pure white space, with the same pure white "ground" under his feet, which seemed endless.
A palm-sized elf floated in front of him and made a soft electronic sound, "Welcome to Illusory Realm Combat System, respected user. I am the guiding elf."
Lin Yi looked around and was quite satisfied with this basic virtual environment.
With a thought in his mind, he said, "Enter the management key." Then he reported a string of codes that the staff had told him before.
"The secret key verification passed. The authority was upgraded to the highest administrator." The elf's halo flashed.
"Scan my current body parameters and create my virtual character model." Lin Yi ordered.
"Received the command. Start a comprehensive scan. The scan is completed. The virtual model is being built. Model construction requires more detailed Dynamic data support. Please select the opponent's parameters and conduct a battle so that the system can comprehensively record your fighting style, power usage, reaction speed and other data to improve the model." The elf prompted.
Lin Yi thought about it and set up a virtual opponent with 200 degrees of source energy.
In the next half hour, he engaged in hearty "battles" with virtual opponents in this pure white space, and established more than a dozen models of different levels of strength. The system faithfully recorded every detail of his source energy burst, rule application, and dodge and block data.
Half an hour later, Lin Yi took the initiative to end the battle.
A smile appeared on his lips, then he logged out of the system and took off his helmet.
Nie Chang quickly stepped forward. "Principal, how do you feel?"
"It's interesting."
Lin Yi put the helmet back in place with a hint of expectation in his eyes, "I really want to know what their expressions will be when they come into contact with this "new toy" in the afternoon."
