"Tia has advanced!"

Returning to the mansion in the town, Sylutia originally wanted to complete the work for the past two days, but unexpectedly, not long after he walked in, other students noticed something was different.

Hearing this shout, many students who were originally working gathered around and looked at him curiously, with eyes full of surprise.

Sylutia's talent is very strong, and he will advance faster than them. This is something that everyone has been mentally prepared for and expected, but it is still surprising that the speed is so fast.

Under normal circumstances, even a first-level student with the highest comprehensive talent evaluation will probably take 1-2 years to advance from First Order to the second level. After entering the second level, and then moving up, the fastest time is 4-5 years. This is already the situation with the best talent.

If a student with a medium talent evaluation enters the Woodland, it will take about 6-10 years to enter the second level, and it may take 30-40 years to enter the third level. This is why, in the Surface Continent, the third-level professionals that can be seen are almost all over 40 years old, and those who can enter the third level at around 30 years old account for less than 10%, which can be said to be extremely talented.

As for being promoted to the third level within the age of 30, only this can be called a genius, which was the goal that Iona once pursued.

After Sylutia came to the Woodland, she entered the second level in half a year. She spent the first year at Golden Radiance Plain and the next two years at Lantern Town. This was still her busy residency. In addition, she had been staying at Iron Wall High Cliff for the past few months, which delayed a lot of time. Even under such circumstances, she still stood out and entered the third level in two years. Her talent was so high that many students were envious and stunned.

Moreover, according to Sylutia's own estimated age, if she was considered 16 years old when she woke up, she would be less than 20 years old now, which is extremely young.

The news quickly spread in the town, and many students were surprised and shocked when they heard it. Even some tourists who stayed temporarily in the town were quite curious.

"Is she such a powerful girl? She is such a terrible junior."

The two middle-aged men sitting in the restaurant felt a little emotional while listening to the noisy discussion not far away.

They have also come from the second and third levels, so they naturally understand the difficulties involved. Unlike previous advancements, stepping into the third level is almost a comprehensive test of themselves.

To reach First Order from scratch, you only need to condense the "power of Aspect Power". As for reaching the second level, the difficulty is not that high. You only need to learn and exercise the ability of plural numbers and rely on the accumulation of "power of Aspect Power" to gradually break through.

But the third level is different. You need to develop your core capabilities from scratch, and make breakthroughs in knowledge, concepts, and practical experiences to make yourself complete. This process cannot be achieved by rough accumulation.

He picked up the large wooden cup and poured the bubbling beer down his throat. A refreshing feeling came over him. Then he put down the cup and looked to the other side.

"How much time did you spend that year?"

"Haha, it took me nearly ten years." The other party held the wine glass and drank slowly.

"After entering the second level, I took the medicine box and shuttled around Green Vine Jungle, identifying and collecting herbs, and learning the pharmacology of various plants. It took about two years to lay the foundation, and then I left Green Vine Jungle, go to Kadeshan Cabin to be a Pharmacist apprentice, helping to process herbal medicines, learn the preparation of potions, and various advanced Pharmacology Knowledge, and spend four years there."

"Later, when I was almost done with my studies, on the advice of my teacher, I went to Snow Wind Port in the Surface Continent, where I reported at the Physician Association, and became a local trainee doctor, helping people. This way another three years passed."

"When my experience and knowledge were mature, I went to a remote town alone, where I replaced a retired old doctor, treated the locals, and learned from the old doctor. Another three years passed."

"After ten years, I feel that the time is ripe and everything is ready to step into the third level."

"After I advanced, the seniors in the faction said that I have good talent and that I will be able to reach the third level within ten years, making me the best among my peers."

"What about your situation, Zalia." The focus of the conversation shifted to the opposite Knight who was drinking beer.

"I'm a little better than you. It took me nearly 7 years." He picked up the bread and started eating it bit by bit, not fast, but very steadily.

"When I first entered the second level from First Order, I was relatively poor. At that time, in order to obtain as many resources as possible in the Woodland, I chose the remote and dangerous "Mountain Path of Strange Calamity" station."

"There are many Dusk Beasts invading from the edge of World of Shadows, which are what we often call monsters, unknown alien creatures, etc."

"In the first month after going there, I was seriously injured. I was hit by a Evil Black Bird that fell from the sky. If my senior Ranger hadn't shot down the strange bird, I might have been caught in the monster's lair."

"From then on, I began to exercise hard and learn all kinds of knowledge and combat skills. I studied and trained almost day and night. This lasted for a year."

"A year later, I started to join the mountain patrol team, participated in the confrontation with those monsters, and continued to fight."

"Because I am only at the second level, even with the blessings of abilities and armor, it is still extremely difficult to face some monsters of the same level. Their shapes are all kinds of strange, and their attack methods are unpredictable."

"In order to win and survive, I have to understand the behavior patterns and weaknesses of these monsters as soon as possible, as well as my own weaknesses."

"I spent five years in this high-pressure environment."

"One day five years later, it was as if I had reached a certain critical point and suddenly had an epiphany. I was no longer afraid of these monsters and could fight them more bravely. Even if I encountered an enemy I had never seen before, I no longer panic."

"I suddenly understood that even a monster is not perfect. Even if it is indeed stronger than me in some aspects, this strength must come at other prices. It cannot defeat me in all aspects, and I am by no means a hopeless fight."

"Under this mentality, even when facing a seemingly powerful enemy, I am extremely stable and can fight bravely and calmly."

"In this way, in the next two years, I stood out from the patrol team, defeated monsters one after another that were far more powerful than me, and completed the trial of Knight."

"Everyone said that I practiced Knight's [brave] character. I think I just gained a sense of calm after understanding a certain truth."

"I know what I want and what I will lose, so I will not be afraid to face challenges. Finally, I will find an opportunity to defeat the enemy in a thrilling fight." He finished his insights and then cleared away the finished lunch plate.

"You..." The doctor opposite shook his head.

"You also say that you are not brave enough. If you are like this, you may not be afraid of death."

"Everyone's path to advancement is different. Although I am not Knight, I can still see that someone like you is already a role model among Knight."

The two got up after lunch and gradually left.

Listening to the discussions among the students along the way, they will also have some curiosity in their hearts.

"That Sylutia, what concepts and truths did she understand when she advanced?"
