Wizard World:Struggles of dimensions-Chapter 109
109 champion
Thinking up to this point Layton thought back to the message that had been displayed on his mage connector about two days after he arrived in school city, it was an application whether his status as a champion practitioner should be on display for interested parties to view and whether to begin the champion program, Layton had ignored this message when it was shown that he didn’t need to reply immediately and had instead focused on the library.
With the acceptance of the application, some information was displayed to Layton, It turns out champion level practitioners were not just an overhyped state or illusory title but had real tangible benefits.
Layton had always been confused about the status of champion practitioners, in fact, when he first saw the application on his connector he was perplexed because everyone seemed to have neglected to mention that little detail to him even Makarov had said nothing to him concerning the subject.
Champion practitioners were so highly sought for because of the peculiarity of school city, as a city that housed various fundamental knowledge from the big 3 civilizations, it was a perfect ground to fully utilize the potential of the champion status, the champion status could only be achieved in the first stage of practice and bestowed on its achievers a special state.
it was a special state which could allow the practitioner to be able to convert his practice system to theirs, specifically the practice system of the great 3 civilizations, it wasn’t that others couldn’t do this also but that others doing this would immediately change their practice permanently, meanwhile champions could perform this with little or no repercussions, not only that the program of school city allowed for the champion practitioner’s to listen in and gain access to the core methodologies of all the three major civilizations which would allow the champions power system to be fine-tuned and complemented to the greatest extent.
From the information displayed it highlighted that his champion status was discovered and achieved in the holy grail plane alone with two other champions which were Igor and Tang qi.
During that confrontation the most affected of the three of them by that peculiar space where the battle occurred was undoubtedly Igor, both Tang qi and Layton both had extraordinary energy systems in their body namely the psionic and the mana of the qi practitioner system, while Igor was dependent on his superpowers that was mainly fueled by his physical strength, if outside that space Igor could make use of the environment of the world and the gravity of the planet on their feet to reduce his physical consumption but that advantage was nonexistent in the space which their battle occurred.
Judging from the information he had just gained Layton was sure that Igor was one of the participants of the holy grail war that had more insight into the champion status than Tang qi and him, Igor’s normal state of manipulating gravity corresponded to his science federation practice, the peculiar melee form he used in the intense battle was done by utilizing the advantage of his champion status to turn his superpowers into the martial arts power system which gave him a hint of the peculiar crushing intent that he had been using during the final battle, and the ritualistic sacrifice of his arm to exert an illusion of time control was simulated using the wizard civilization style practice.
Reminiscent of Igor’s strength and means despite his huge disadvantage, Layton quickly grew excited and swiftly tidied up his desk and left for the exit of the library.
.....
Layton quietly walked out of the library habitually ignoring the people around him and quickly headed towards the martial arts department main building. it turns out their formal free lectures was today and if he missed it he would have to wait another month before getting another chance to listen, quickening his pace Layton weaved through the roads and soon found a building that vaguely resembled a grand Taoist temple, gazing upon the temple and confirming it was his destination Layton quickly walked in while the peculiar fluctuation of the School city surrounded his mage connector confirming if he was eligible to attend the lecture.
The lectures in school city was special, although there existed many means such as virtual reality technology or a magic phantom the school city still retained the old fashioned way of teaching in an auditorium, this was because just like the library there were certain benefits to being there in person, some esoteric methods require special means word were not enough to convey the special meaning and mysteries contained and so there needed to be a physical appearance where the room was specially treated where the spirit of the preacher or lecturer would accurately convey the feelings contained, make the mysteries easily resonate with the listener’s soul and easily lead them into enlightenment, of course, what was gained by the listeners was entirely dependent on the listener’s aptitude and savvy. 𝒇𝚛e𝘦wℯ𝑏𝓃𝑜νℯ𝒍.co𝗺
Entering the lecture room, he had been sent to by the school city’s teleportation system Layton found the room half full and the time for the lecture about to begin in the next few seconds.
Layton quickly found himself an empty futon to sit on and soon enough the lecturer quickly appeared donning a wide sleeved traditional Taoist robe and a pair of glasses on his face, the expressionless teacher sat down cross-legged and started speaking softly without giving a glance to anyone in the room in particular.
“The body contains many mysteries, it is a universe of its own, many different planes or universes have different shapes or attributes some exist in a planetary form some exist in layers while others exist in bubbles etc. this also correlates to the different body types or physiques one might possess, the difference due to different practices in martial arts also correspond to the different energy and resources that can be discovered through the use of different methods within a plane. The core of the martial art practice is to tap into the resources of our body explore and exceed its limits, and get in touch with all parts of the body, the ways of exploration differ which in turn leads to differences in the power generated such as true qi mana blood qi yin qi...”ƒ𝓇e𝙚𝔀𝐞𝚋𝓃𝐨𝘷e𝙡.𝒄𝗼m
