"Innovation Skill?"
Lancelot narrowed his eyes. He was planning to follow the Innovation School school of thought, so he was not unprepared and had some understanding of this school of thought.
The so-called Innovation Skill can actually be understood as a "ultimate move" in a game.
This ultimate skill is composed of several, or even a dozen, smaller skills.
The principle is somewhat similar to a jigsaw puzzle, where different Ability Energy are used to piece together a complete picture.
Gael continued, "Innovation Skill are the essence of the Innovation School, but to create powerful Innovation Skill, you can't rely on luck; you must have a sufficient understanding of genetics."
"The ancients said that reading can enlighten the mind. This is never outdated. Transcendent people are not reckless; they should acquire knowledge, because only by understanding can they put it into practice."
"Of course, it's too early for you to create your own Innovation Skill. Even I, your teacher, am still far from being able to do so."
"Before reaching the Sanctuary, don't think about how to create Innovation Skill; just learn from the experience of your predecessors."
"Our Holy Sword Academy, as the headquarters of the Alliance's Innovation School Ability Energy, has produced tens of thousands of Innovation School masters over the past thousand years, leaving behind a wealth of Innovation Skill training methods."
This includes the combination of Ability Energy, the selection of bloodline potions, auxiliary resources, the order of cultivation, cultivation experience, and so on.
You just need to follow these methods step by step, and you will be able to master the corresponding Innovation Skill.
All of these are collectively known as the [Innovation Compendium], and are all stored in the college library. They can be borrowed by paying academic credits.
Mr. Gael's introduction was very detailed. Although he had a fierce face and was not easy to get along with, he was indeed a very responsible teacher.
After listening to him for a while, the students became bolder, and one student asked curiously, "Mr. Gael, have you mastered the Innovation Skill? Can you demonstrate it for us?"
"Me?" Gael smiled proudly. "Fine, let me show you the power of the Innovation School. You won't be afraid of those Sublimation School guys anymore. Being weak for a while doesn't mean we'll always be weak."
Having said that, Gael moved amidst the eager anticipation of all the students.
He bent his knees slightly, spread his arms, arched his back, and then opened his mouth wide, letting out a cry that shook the heavens and stopped the clouds.
cracking--
The sound waves rolled and the energy surged, as if Mist were shrouding Gael's body.
The next moment, a vulture with two pairs of wings, a wingspan of nearly twenty meters, claws as sharp as knives, feathers as if forged from steel, and eyes as sharp as swords, appeared before everyone's eyes, like the overlord of the sky.
A terrifying aura swept over them like a raging river, making the students tremble as if they were being watched by some prehistoric creature, and they couldn't help but think of running away.
"Ironfeather Vulture, this is my Innovation Skill. It is a combination of five C-level or lower Ability Energy, reaching an A+ level. It allows me to roam freely in the sky and sweep across the land. I once used this Innovation Skill to fight a young Brass Dragon head-on."
The vulture opened and closed its pure black beak, uttering the voice of Teacher Gael, its tone filled with boastfulness. Even at the Holy Sword Academy, killing a True Dragon was a rare feat.
"The young Brass Dragon's strength should be around level 8, and regardless of the type of True Dragon, they are all extremely fast, possessing both offensive and defensive capabilities, making them very difficult to deal with... This teacher Gael is quite strong."
Lancelot pondered this, gaining a more direct understanding of the Holy Sword Academy's strength. After all, Gael was just an ordinary teacher at the academy, yet his strength was so formidable.
"Wow, teacher, did you transform?"
"It has such a high-quality feel; it doesn't look like an energy body at all."
The students watched with shining eyes as Mr. Gael transformed into his Ironfeather Vulture, and they began to chatter amongst themselves.
Gael explained, "The vast majority of us who awaken new Ability Energy in the Innovation School use bloodline potions. Although we have defeated the original owner's will remaining in the potion, the genes themselves cannot be changed."
Therefore, when a certain level of Ability Energy is developed to a certain extent, the body structure will inevitably change.
However, this is not a big problem.
The higher the level of Ability Energy development, the greater our control over our Ability Energy, and the more we can control ourselves to maintain our human form.
This is also a characteristic of our Innovation School; transformation is normal, especially after mastering Innovation Skill, which is almost equivalent to transforming oneself into a completely new species. Like this Ironfeather Vulture I transformed into, there is no such creature in nature."
"So, we're not going to be human anymore?" The students looked at each other in bewilderment.
"Well... you could say that. However, those who Transcendent are on the path of life evolution. Outward appearances are not important; the core is what matters. The ultimate goal is to elevate one's life level," Gael emphasized. "And no matter what you become, as long as you still consider yourself human, then there's no problem."
"Take our Dean for example. He can even transform into a miniature Black Hole. He's not even a living being, let alone a human. But as long as he's loyal to the Alliance and to humanity, isn't he still our Dean?"
That makes sense.
"Yeah, why bother with whether we're human or not? Anyway, in the eyes of many ordinary people, we Transcendent aren't even human."
"That being said, it still feels a bit strange."
"You guys are focusing on such strange things. Am I the only one who noticed that the Dean can turn into a Black Hole? Is it possible for a human to transform into such a terrifying celestial body?"
"Black Hole are nothing; I want to become a neutron star someday."
"Tch, I've even become a multiverse."
"As long as I practice diligently, there shouldn't be any problem, right?"
As Gael unveiled her Innovation Skill, the atmosphere in the classroom became lively, with students engaging in heated discussions filled with anticipation and enthusiasm.
Gael looked at the students in front of her and sighed inwardly.
Achieving the same level of accomplishment as the Dean is incredibly difficult; even among thousands of Innovation School Ability Energy, one might not be able to produce someone like Black Hole Urta.
However, he did not dampen the students' enthusiasm. This kind of passion and confidence is exactly what is needed for the Innovation School. Only by forging ahead can one overcome life-or-death challenges.
Those who question themselves will ultimately fail on the path of innovation.
However, just then, an untimely voice rang out, "By the way, the teacher has grown so big, where did his clothes go? He wouldn't...?"
The classroom fell silent immediately upon hearing this.
Pairs of eyes fell on Gael, who stiffened and then glared at the student who had spoken.
Hey kid, isn't your focus a little off?
However, Gael, who had been teaching for many years, had probably encountered this type of student before, and didn't say much.
He transformed back into human form, his clothes still on.
Then, Gael tugged at his collar and explained to the students, "This is a micro-molecular combat suit developed by the academy. It can blend into the skin, so you don't have to worry about it tearing off even when you transform."
Upon hearing this, one student's eyes lit up. He was Ability Energy, and his biggest worry was that his clothes would rip off when he transformed. So he quickly asked, "How much does this combat suit cost?"
"No discount, 50 credits."
"... Okay, I'll stay naked for now."
