A Top Scholar in Everything

The materials and notes given to Baiyu by Yi Xian were not just empty shells, but genuinely valuable resources.

Most were focused on the research of magic energy machinery.

Baiyu's mechanical armament, the bounty hunter's modified mechanical prosthetic limbs, and so on, all fall under the category of magic energy machinery.

The value of a mechanic is self-evident.

In fact, compared to martial artists, talents in special fields like mechanics, pharmacists, and craftsmen are often more valuable.

They not only need to study diligently but also require talent and significant financial and material support.

At the same time, these people also need to research specialized knowledge.

However, because they are focused entirely on academic research, their martial arts cultivation or extraordinary sequence is generally not very high, which requires them to have strong spirits to resist pollution and distortion.

In other words, scarcity is value.

This is an unchanging truth everywhere.

Previously, on Erza, Baiyu learned the basics of mechanical science, but those were only the most basic understanding and application, allowing Baiyu to make some trinkets.

Trackers, detectors, and the like.

However, what Yi Xian gave him was a true systematic knowledge of magic kinetics and mechanics, covering everything from high-end to low-end.

"What is Magic Kinetics," "Don't Say You Understand Magic Energy Machinery," "Basic Operating Laws of Magic Energy Machinery," "How to Create a Magic Kinetic Core"…

These were some of the most basic pieces of knowledge among the materials given by Yi Xian, forming the foundation of the entire magic kinetic system.

Further advanced knowledge was slightly mentioned.

Presumably, books related to this knowledge are still with Yi Xian.

The knowledge in this world is very expensive.

The books in the school library are not advanced knowledge in specialized fields; most are introductory. Even if there are advanced ones, borrowing them certainly requires spending GPA points.

School and the army might be the most convenient places to acquire mysticism knowledge.

As for other paths, they will only incur greater costs.

For the next whole week, Baiyu immersed himself in learning.

He read through the most foundational system knowledge of magic kinetics, gaining a general systematic understanding of the discipline in his mind.

Magic Kinetics.

Unlike blood qi and spirituality.

This is a special reaction produced by spiritual qi and machinery.

To activate magic energy machinery, apart from using spiritual qi ore, blood qi and spending spirituality can also activate it.

In other words.

Both martial artists and the extraordinary are qualified to engage in this field of magic kinetics.

"The creation of a magic kinetic core generally requires the fusion of the martial artist's blood qi or the extraordinary's spirituality to allow a chemical reaction between spiritual qi and machinery.

No wonder those magic energy flying cars are so expensive.

Even the simplest magic kinetic core requires the craftsman to spend a lot of time honing it, during which various accidents might occur.

Moreover.

The manufacturing process carries not insignificant risks.

Anything related to mysticism might trigger pollution or distortion, which is a classic saying on the pages of mysticism.

Closing the book.

Baiyu gently exhaled a breath of turbid air.

"You have completed the foundational system establishment of the Magic Kinetic Energy discipline. You now clearly understand the basic workings of the Magic Kinetics discipline, Knowledge Points of Magic Kinetics +2000!"

"You have completed the fundamental learning system establishment of a Mysticism discipline, Knowledge Points of Mysticism +1000!"

"You have established a foundational learning cognition system of a discipline for the first time, formally initiating the Knowledge Tree Mode of the discipline."

Three prompts flashed in succession in the scholar space.

In his mind.

Suddenly, a bald large tree emerged.

On its trunk were the three bold characters of Mysticism, and below it, a skill shimmered faintly with light:

Mystical Resistance LV2.

This is a skill granted when the knowledge tree of mysticism reaches a certain level.

Different from the Scholar Secret Technique.

This is a genuinely substantial fluctuation ability without any consumption or negative effects.

Apart from the trunk of mysticism.

There are six other lit branches on the whole tree, marked as Magic Elixir, Magic Kinetics, Sealing Technique, Spirit Technique, Mechanical Science, and Extraordinary Biology.

These correspond exactly to the major disciplines of the school.

The only one missing is the Ancient Martial Arts of the Human Body, which seems not to belong to this system.

Baiyu also noticed.

There are other branches on this tree.

But at this moment, these branches are all dim, and when looked at, there is simply no information feedback.

"Mysticism as the main trunk cornerstone, and other disciplines as branches and leaves, is this the entire mysticism system? Because I systematically understood the fundamental knowledge of a branch discipline, it triggered the conditions of the scholar space, activating this knowledge tree?"

Baiyu's eyes moved slightly.

In the scholar space, the classification of extraordinary disciplines is almost the same as the classification given by the East Prosperity Imperial officials.

However, Baiyu noticed.

The Ancient Martial Arts of the Human Body is absent!!

Which means.

The Ancient Martial Arts discipline that has always been practicing Spirit Technique is not in this system!!

If this news got out, it would directly overthrow the existing learning system.

"No, they intersect."

Baiyu's gaze shifted to the side.

Beside the big tree of mysticism, there is a sapling inscribed with the characters of Ancient Martial Arts.

However, this sapling is very small.

So small that it is only as large as a single branch of the big tree of mysticism.

And this little sapling still has branches and leaves, but most of its branches are dim, with only a branch of Spirit Technique lit up.

On both trees, there is Spirit Technique.

This is the intersection of the two major systems.

Ancient Martial Arts and Mysticism are two entirely different systems, only intersecting each other in Spirit Technique.

This secret can only be explored later.

Baiyu retracted his gaze, moving his eyes to the magic kinetics branch, and due to a week of intensive knowledge intake, his Magic Kinetics discipline had already been promoted to LV2.

On the branch, a corresponding ability appeared.

"Magic Kinetic Core Manufacturing LV2."

Skills are tied to discipline levels.

According to common sense, Baiyu should have been able to systematically learn the fundamental knowledge of a discipline when at LV1, but the knowledge he encountered in high school was incomplete.

This time, he broke through the barriers with the help of materials provided by Yi Xian.

With a thought.

The knowledge tree of disciplines quickly disappeared from his mind.

Baiyu casually glanced at the Dream Battlefield's Biological Cultivation Facility, where the blood worm's mother body was quietly lying in the cultivation room without any abnormalities.

Next.

He turned his attention to another stack of materials.

These were all related to mechanical science.

Baiyu intended to start introductory learning of mechanical science and magic kinetics simultaneously, at least unlocking the foundational skills of these two disciplines.

Mechanical science is less complex than magic kinetics.

But.

This discipline values practice making perfect.

To advance in mechanical science, knowledge alone is not enough; it requires a lot of practice.

And here.

It involves spending money.

Baiyu shook his head, reluctantly picking up the student card and opening the map of Celestial South Martial Arts University on his phone.

Mechanical Training Room.

This is the school's public mechanic training ground.
