After finishing his notes, Chen Mu finally settled on the new approach. He called this Perception Training Method the "Snow Pit Method." Even someone like Jiang Liang seemed rather noncommittal about the name.
Chen Mu did not care whether the name sounded good. Results were what mattered most.
Once Bu Erna and his crew finished their work, Chen Mu planned to introduce the Snow Pit Method to everyone. As its first beneficiary, Jiang Liang had already recovered his former perception level.
