However, all this regret was useless.
"Yes!" The three little ones responded, each with an undisguisable excitent on their faces.
They realized the enormous gap between being a student who audits a lecture given by the Monarch and being a true student of the Monarch. That's why they were so happy.
Unlike the other students, the three of them did not leave the classroom but followed Xue Dili, waiting for the next step of special training.
This public lecture ended here, but the waves it caused were like a tornado destroying a parking lot, completely sweeping across the entire Imperial Capital, sweeping across the entire world.
This class was destined to be recorded in history, this brand-new system would thoroughly shatter the entire world's pattern into pieces.
Just like he said, this Magic Ring System is the big ship of the new world, and all of you are just remnants of the old era. The new world no longer has a ship to accommodate you.
...
As they walked out of the lecture hall, sure enough, the inside imdiately erupted, and the students started discussing everything that was taught in this class, from the future of the Magic Ring System to the great revolution of the entire Spiritual Realm.
Even those still in the Ivory Tower could vaguely sniff out the key points within this.
The higher-ups, and the staff specifically responsible for connecting Xue Dili with the upper echelons, understood even better what kind of change the sudden ergence of this brand-new system would bring to the world.
Even as everything about the Magic Ring System began to beco related to the Giant Beasts, they could imagine that if in the future the Giant Beasts could provide power to the Spiritual Ability Users, then humans would no longer fear the Giant Beasts.
Giant Beasts would instead beco fodder for humanity, with the older generation bearing the final pressures, allowing the new generation to thrive and then completely ending this era of relentless conflict between humans and Giant Beasts.
This is a global revolution!
This class reached the top echelons of humanity with the fastest speed, causing earthquake-like tremors.
But at the sa ti, Xue Dili was calmly wandering around the campus, taking a detour back to his laboratory, just to take a leisurely look at the world's customs and traditions.
This is indeed a world roughly equivalent to Blue Star in technology, but because of their long-term battles with the Giant Beasts, technology is mainly focused on warfare. Civilian technology is probably similar to Blue Star's last century, the early information age.
And on this campus, there was an even older feeling, as this place should be a campus that was built hundreds of years ago, with the walls covered in the marks of ti, mottled with moss, and wild grass occasionally protruding from the stone seams.
Strolling around, and upon arriving in front of a building, Xue Dili was imdiately stunned.
There was a statue more than ten ters high here, of an old mage in a white robe. Ti had left deep marks on this statue, and the erosion of rain and the howling of wind had begun to wear down its edges.
Below the statue was a stone tablet, along with countless floral plants and small snacks left by students.
Inscribed on the stone tablet were these words:
"In mory of Wise Man Yushua, the first Spiritual Ability User in history, who led the remaining people to build a city-state, founded the basis of the Spiritual Ability System, laid the foundation for the modern Spiritual Ability System, the forefather of the Spiritual Masters, and the first principal of the Spiritual Ability Academy."
On the statue, the old man's white robe seed to move without wind, even though it was washed by the rain, showing deep rain marks, Xue Dili could still recognize it at a glance.
He smiled, standing in front of this statue, not knowing why his lips curled up suddenly, as if he had seen an old friend he hadn't seen in many years, he lifted his head, looking at the eyes of the statue.
"Old thing, long ti no see." He said softly in this way.
Finally understood why when this world originally just began its technological budding, another system of the Magic System erged, and why the technology and the Magic System of this world could interweave with such maturity without conflict.
Because soone had been here.
"Teacher, what's wrong?" Wu Li, the girl among the three little ones, seed to sense Xue Dili's emotions, possibly due to the enhancent brought by the Magic Ring, she had a strong perception ability towards emotions.
Just now, she sensed that the Monarch had extrely complex emotions upon seeing the Wise Man's statue, as well as a faint sorrow.
"No, nothing's wrong, just having so thoughts upon seeing the Wise Man's statue again," Xue Dili smiled, turned his back, and walked off towards the direction of his distant laboratory.
The three little ones were slightly puzzled; after all, the Wise Man was the most common figure in textbooks upon first stepping into the field of Spiritual Energy, a figure from thousands of years ago, and on Blue Star, it feels like modern people looking at Qin Shi Huang, having no emotions, only giving ruthless evaluations of his accomplishnts during his lifeti.
But to Xue Dili, the old thing seed as if it happened only yesterday.
The sunset shone on the statue of the old thing, casting a long shadow that extended to the feet of Xue Dili.
Perhaps, he now had one more reason.
...
The birds brought Xue Dili the most authoritative historical records of this world, along with the family background information of these three children.
He flipped through this intelligence while keeping an eye on the outside world's news.
The newly erged Magic Ring System was actually a smokescreen thrown out by Xue Dili, rely a facade.
Compressing one's soul into an external Magic Organ to store extra energy was rely a byproduct of this system, or rather a byproduct of Xue Dili's plan.
And by tossing this smokescreen out, naturally, there was no need for him to investigate others, as those needed would naturally co to him.
At this mont, Xue Dili, much like Uchiha Shisui from that Hokage series, had announced his secret to the entire world.
In doing so, those hidden conspirators naturally sought him out.
But unlike Uchiha Shisui, Shisui was too weak, while Xue Dili could thoroughly humiliate all conspirators one by one, then trace the source of the Giant Beast Serum, which was what he truly wanted to know.
...
In the courtyard outside the lab, the three little ones began their special training and familiarization with the Magic Ring abilities.
Xue Dili did not have high demands on them; initially, he only wanted a few people to co up and show the feasibility of this system to the whole world, but after discovering Ronald among them, he genuinely thought of teaching them.
Currently, they only needed to complete their energy accumulation, and the developnt of abilities should be considered later.
He looked at Ronald in the distance, practicing super-speed regeneration with small animals.
A downtrodden lad who seed still very insecure about himself, every step he took, he would ask Xue Dili if it was right.
Xue Dili wouldn't be too hard on him. A six-year-old who lost his parents could beco like this was extraordinary.
Perhaps long-term circumstances of living under others' roofs led to his insecurity, commonly known as "downtrodden."
But if Xue Dili's guess was right, he might beco the first real "Super Beastman Pillar" in this world.
By rely touching the flesh of the number zero Giant Beast, he could generate such a strong resonance with it, even causing the number zero Giant Beast, which had no consciousness, to show signs of awakening.
Kid, you're quite sothing.
And to deal with such a downtrodden lad, Xue Dili had plenty of thods, especially when his worldview wasn't yet fully ford.
Such people are just insecure from living under others' roofs. In other words, they haven't seen enough of the world.
And Xue Dili was indeed interested in teaching such a downtrodden child to see if he could set him straight.
Consider it as entertainnt while investigating this world.
After observing them, Xue Dili busied himself with his matters, flipping through the general history recorded in the world.
In ancient tis, this world was actually more science-focused, not too different from Blue Star's history: primitive era, slave era, feudal era, and the budding era of capitalism.
Giant Beasts didn't just appear suddenly; they had made appearances during the feudal era of this world, being no bigger than ten or so ters, and not yet reaching the current exaggerated five or six stories tall and weighing several tens of thousands of tons.
But by the budding of capitalism, Giant Beasts' sizes escalated from over ten ters to over forty ters within just a few centuries.
From then on, humanity officially entered the age of battling the Giant Beasts.
