So My Magic Talent is This Strong?

Li Yu assessed his own strength according to the standards of this world; he should be considered a Tier 2 now, right?

The power levels in this world are divided simply and crudely into ten tiers, though each stage possesses its own distinct characteristics.

Tier 1 is for laying the foundation, conditioning the body, or learning meditation techniques; most people in school are at this stage.

Tier 2 is the formal entry, mastering internal energy or basic spells.

Tier 3 involves refined techniques, with true energy or dense mana formed within the body, along with the mastery of some elementary spells.

Tier 4 allows for the projection of true energy or the casting of intermediate magic.

Tier 5 marks a qualitative change in internal power, where true energy takes form or one masters multiple elements to cast advanced magic.

Tier 6 is the level of someone capable of establishing a sect, while Tier 7 allows for the mastery of a domain or the possession of one's own magical barrier.

Tiers 8, 9, and 10 are considered transcendent, god-like existences; the specifics of these stages are unknown, as they are beyond the reach of students like Li Yu.

Li Yu is currently a Tier 2 because he lacks true energy within his body, though as for combat techniques, he has already fully mastered them.

Thinking about these issues, Li Yu continued toward the school, realizing that if he wants to keep growing stronger, he must find a way to cultivate true energy.

Pondering these matters, Li Yu soon arrived at school. Many classmates had already arrived, and Li Yu even saw quite a few students carrying weapons.

Bringing weapons to school would be unthinkable in his past life, but in this world, it is a perfectly normal occurrence.

Following his memories, Li Yu entered the school and quickly found his classroom and seat.

Many people had already arrived in the classroom, and Li Yu could name them based on his memories, though whether they recognized him was another matter.

This was because the original owner of his body was an incredibly reclusive person who rarely interacted with anyone.

After observing for a while, Li Yu withdrew his thoughts and cast his gaze upon the books in front of him.

Cultural studies were completed during middle school; by high school, the curriculum consists entirely of knowledge related to martial arts and magic.

For instance, the books before him were exactly that: Mage's Meditation, True Interpretation of Martial Arts, Monster Compendium, and the like.

Li Yu picked up the book on mages and began to read, feeling indifferent about the upcoming class streaming.

Whether he becomes a martial artist or a mage is fine, especially since with his talent, it is impossible for Li Yu to be confined to a single system.

As long as it is useful, Li Yu believes it can be learned; everything is for the sake of becoming stronger.

Flipping through the book in his hand, Li Yu gradually gained an understanding of meditation.

With the help of his powerful talent, the contents of the book were quickly grasped by Li Yu.

He soon understood what meditation was actually for; this talent of his is more terrifying than he had imagined.

Whether it is the content of a book or something someone else demonstrates, as long as Li Yu has seen it, he can master it with ease.

Thinking of this, Li Yu closed his eyes and began to meditate. The original owner had no intention of walking the path of a mage, so the memories in his mind were mostly related to martial arts.

But now, Li Yu does not care about that; as long as it is power, he wants it. As meditation was initiated, a stream of energy slowly seeped from the air into his body.

Soon, Li Yu felt mana beginning to accumulate within him. Although it was slow, it was enough to pleasantly surprise him.

"Is my magical talent really this strong?" A strange glint flashed in Li Yu's eyes. According to the information in the book, it takes a long time to sense mana.

Those with good aptitude might take a week, while those with poor aptitude take even longer to sense it.

And Li Yu? He had sensed mana the moment he tried, which is quite interesting; his magical talent is better than he imagined.

Or perhaps, is this brought about by his eyes? Regardless, this is a good thing.

Thinking this to himself, Li Yu continued to meditate to increase his mana; he feels no sense of security in a world like this.

Time passed as Li Yu meditated, and many classmates arrived one after another.

As more people gathered, the classroom became noisy, forcing Li Yu to stop his meditation.

Without a quiet environment, meditation is too troublesome; he will study it slowly when he returns home tonight.

What he needs to deal with next is the upcoming class streaming, and he also needs to handle the matter of his talent.

The Eye of Keigeko is too terrifying to reveal completely, so Li Yu will hide some of it.

But he won't hide everything. Playing the pig to eat the tiger? Don't be ridiculous; Li Yu won't do that. If you play the pig for too long, you really become a pig.

Therefore, Li Yu will appropriately display his talent; only in this way can he secure more benefits for himself.

In a world like this, not competing is giving others an opportunity. Li Yu will still fight for what he should, as school resources are limited.

If you don't compete, you are just giving them to others. Li Yu is well aware of this, so he must display some of his talent when necessary!

In that case, he will just describe his talent as a learning talent, such as the ability to rapidly increase his learning speed!

As for the specifics, they will be vague; how strong the talent is will be entirely up to Li Yu to decide.

This is merely the most basic ability of the Eye of Keigeko, and it is enough to deal with the school. A talent related to learning—isn't that a perfect fit for what the school wants?

With his decision made, Li Yu waited quietly. Because he had no social life, his classmates didn't really talk to him.

Whether it was the person in front or behind him, everyone treated Li Yu as an invisible person, which suited Li Yu just fine.

At the same time, through the conversations of the students in the class, Li Yu captured quite a bit of information, such as what talents these students had awakened.

People at this age cannot keep secrets; after awakening their talents, everyone couldn't wait to share them with others.

Some people awaken talents suited for the path of a warrior, others awaken talents suited for the path of a mage, and there are also those whose talents are suited for any path whatsoever.

The latter were currently showing off like mad, and listening to this information, Li Yu managed to gain a basic understanding of his classmates.

This thing called talent seemed to be something everyone possessed; Li Yu hadn't heard a single person say they hadn't awakened yet, it was just a matter of whether the talent they awakened was good or bad.

Li Yu listened quietly for a while until the bell for class finally rang, and the teacher walked in from outside carrying a stack of documents.

As the teacher entered the classroom, the students fell silent, because everyone knew exactly what was going to happen today!
