Starting with Proficiency Panel-Chapter 639: Replace immediately, about 10 minutes.

The book "Magic Theory" introduces quite a portion of the most basic applications of magic.

Previously I was eager to try, now that I finally have magic power, I can attempt the most basic spells inside.

However, Li Qing still restrained himself, opened the door of the safe house and left, returning to reality.

After classes at the Gray Magic Academy, you can stay for an extra twenty-four hours, after which you'll be forcibly teleported back to your original world.

Exhausted, he fell asleep as soon as he hit the bed.

...

...

When he woke up, it was already ten o'clock in the morning the next day, and the bleary-eyed Li Qing took out his phone and took a look.

Sunday, ten fourteen.

After struggling in bed for a while, Li Qing finally found a comfortable position and began his daily meditation.

Now that magic power has been condensed and formed, what Li Qing needs to do is continuously increase the total amount of magic power, and to enhance magic power, the improvement of one's spiritual power remains an essential source.

Thus, the "Basic Meditation Technique" is essentially about strengthening one's spiritual power.

The stronger the spirit, the higher the magic power limit, and the faster the total increase.

Four hours later, Li Qing slowly opened his eyes and energetically got out of bed.

After gathering magic power, the meditation skill won't deplete oneself but rather fills oneself, making one's Essence, Qi, and Spirit full.

This means that if necessary in the future, he can completely use meditation to replace sleep.

He went downstairs to a familiar breakfast shop and ordered a bowl of spicy noodles.

The owner looked at Li Qing and said, "Little Li, I see you've lost quite a bit of weight recently, are you on a diet?"

Li Qing responded, "Of course, I've been busy with matchmaking recently. Nowadays young girls all like a skinny beauty, so I'm improving myself."

While responding casually, his mind was still conceiving his first magic 'Mage's Hand.'

If one must describe it in a specific way, it's somewhat like the superpower effect of telekinesis.

Most magic can't escape four actions: analyze, construct, solidify, release.

The stronger one's magic power, the stronger the power displayed by the mage's hand.

While eating noodles, Li Qing's mind was slowly analyzing according to the detailed introduction of Mage's Hand in "Magic Theory."

After finishing the bowl of noodles and paying the bill, Li Qing bought a notebook and pen, squatted by the street to write and draw.

An hour later, Li Qing frowned deeply at the various scrawl-like marks in his notebook.

How do these magic execution nodes resemble the spatial three-dimensional coordinates and second-order derivatives in advanced math?

Honestly, it's been seven or eight years since university, and without applying these advanced math concepts in real work, I've already forgotten them all, let alone such specialized mathematical concepts.

He fell silent, tilted his head skyward, his face looking a bit unpleasant.

Back then, he was completely a math dunce, even barely scoring sixty to seventy marks in high school.

Do I really have to return to school?

His expression was uncertain as he hesitated for a while, finally heaved a long sigh, tapped his forehead, and then walked towards the district library.

Half an hour later, Li Qing looked at the somewhat old high school math textbooks in front of him with considerable helplessness.

He trembled slightly as he opened the first page, took a deep breath, calmed his mind with the meditation skill, and then, serene, he opened his eyes and looked at the textbook.

Time flies when you're fully engrossed, and when Li Qing looked up, four hours had passed.

Surprised and delighted, he closed the first semester of the high school course.

Damn, it wasn't even difficult, I could even deduce the formulas that needed to be learned later by extrapolating.

This piqued Li Qing's interest, and excitedly he bought the entire set of high school math textbooks, also grabbing a few sets of "Three-Year Gaokao Five-Year Simulations" papers before leaving the library, found somewhere to dine, and returned to his rented place before resting.

Lying in bed, he meditated for two hours, then opened his eyes energetically and resumed studying the textbook.

If I had such a brain back then, choosing between Qinghua and Peking University would've been just a formality.

This basic meditation technique is quite magical; when the light ball forms, it not only increased his spiritual power but also boosted his intelligence.

If only the character panel could show my attributes.

Li Qing thought, and during a break, he instinctively opened his character panel to take a look.

"Surname: Li Qing

Tier: Junior Apprentice

Intelligence: 3

Physical Strength: 0.8

Skills: Basic Meditation Technique (Entry Level)

Talent: Identification Skill (Level 1)

Character Evaluation: A devious human villain embracing evil!"

The character evaluation changed slightly, but that wasn't the point.

The character panel that I see indeed changes according to my thoughts, it seems the summoned devil has thoroughly turned into a system panel.

It should be judged with 1 as the threshold, with the average value for ordinary people being 1, then fluctuating up and down.

Having twice the intelligence of an ordinary person gives me astonishing nimbleness of thought, but my physical strength is somewhat lacking.

Li Qing felt both surprised and expected, casually, any Level 0 magic requires a lot of calculation deductions and analysis, if without sufficient intelligence to support the flow of magic power, you wouldn't even know the significance of each magic power flow node.

Analyze, construct, solidify, release.

The four indispensable steps of using magic.

If the logical thinking isn't good enough, understanding these things might be tough.

It wasn't until about twenty past eleven that Li Qing contentedly closed the textbook, these days he finally found the momentum he once had in learning.

Really, if during student days he could study as diligently as now, he could have definitely attended a prominent university.

Even without the current level of intelligence.

A hardworking genius, as long as they're a normal person with intelligence within the average range, can achieve it, more emphasis is on one's self-discipline.

The time was almost up.

Li Qing checked the time, donned the black robe on himself, glanced around his rented place.

Gotta find some time to move somewhere else.

After entering the safe house at the Gray Magic Academy, Li Qing slightly prepared, opened the door in advance, and entered the classroom.

With the previous examples as a lesson, none of the remaining fourteen students wanted to be late.

Settling into his seat, there were already a few students engaging in small talk in the classroom, while others like Li Qing remained silent.

Or rather, the majority remained silent, with only a few whispering among themselves.

A blue-bordered black robed figure suddenly appeared on the podium; it was still the catfish-head Rosenberg, though his entire figure was hidden under the black robe.
