Dark city

10. From top bottom

The class was housed in a large classroom with a capacity of three hundred, and in the center of the classroom was a high platform with a dozen large and comfortable seats, in stark contrast to the crowded seats on either side. As Richard walked into the classroom, he was led directly to the central platform. In an instant, hundreds of eyes fell on him, making little Richard feel uncomfortable. The students seated in the classroom ranged from children of seven or eight years old to old magicians in their eighties. This is a semi-public teaching, and any mage who has served Deep Blue for a year can come to the lecture. The central platform is a specially reserved area for Su Hailun's personal disciples. So when Richard sat down, he immediately became the focus of the audience. The eyes of longing, jealousy, and hatred filled their eyes.

In addition to Richard, there is a teenager and a young girl sitting in the central area. They were two or three years older than Richard, but they were already sixth- and fifth-level magicians, respectively. Su Helen accepted a total of twelve students, Richard was the thirteenth, and there were three others who were still studying in Deep Blue. The rest have already begun to travel to continents and even to different planes, and the best ones have begun to dominate the planes.

No sooner had Richard sat down than the main entrance to the classroom was pushed open and a stocky, balding magician entered. Popovich, a sixteenth-level great magician, his mana is not outstanding in the dark blue, and he can only barely be classified as a strong man on the entire continent. However, Popovich is not known for his magical ranks, but for his theoretical achievements in the world system.

Popovich was not good-looking, and even his big nose and round chin looked a little funny, but the classroom was full of people who were interested in going further in the wizarding world, and the opportunity to sit in the dark blue and listen to the lecture was not easy to come by, so the classroom was immediately quiet, waiting for the master to speak.

"The world of magic lies in reality. When you observe the world, what you see and hear is not the real thing, but the image of the world that is projected in your consciousness through your perception! This process is inevitable, and it may seem unimportant, but it is precisely because of this process that there is an indispensable gap between the world we perceive and the real world. So how do you reduce the error? It can only depend on your way of thinking! It can even be said that the way a magician thinks determines what kind of world he sees. "

After a pause, waiting for the bewildered or thoughtful apprentices and magicians to jot down what they had heard, Popovich continued, "In the coming time, I will not be able to teach you the mighty level 8 magic, let alone the 9th level magic, because I won't either!"

There was silence in the classroom, and there was no laugh Popovich had expected. Faced with this group of students with a good learning attitude, serious expressions and full of respect for the teacher, he could only touch his bald head helplessly and muttered: "A bunch of boring guys." Well, let's get straight to the point. I will teach you how to think, not to underestimate it, in fact, it is the cornerstone of everything that determines what you can ultimately achieve in the world of magic. The right way of thinking can bring what you see closer to the reality of the world, so that you can make the right decisions when it comes to important choices, and not make decisions that you will regret for the rest of your life like a fly without a head. The so-called important choices include both magic experiments and magic choices during combat. "

"To sum up my system in one word, it's top-down. Remember that you have to know the world before you can know yourself. If, as one of the guys in this tower of magic claims, everything starts with self, you can only see a small part of the surroundings. This determines that you have a limited lifetime of achievement. How can a house finch be compared to an eagle?! So don't be like that guy, that way of thinking, it's just a steppe gopher!"
