Chapter 34
"Su Wen, don't be afraid."
Mu Lao tapped the cane in his hand gently, and two rocking chairs appeared out of thin air.
She smiled and said, "When you get old, you want to lie down and rest for a while even when you can't talk."
As she said that, Mu Lao leaned on one of the recliners, raised the cane, and motioned Su Wen to sit down.
Su Wen looked puzzled, but still sat down properly.
"My name is Mu Jin, you can also call me Mu Lao, I am the deputy director of the admissions office of the highest institution of learning, which is a leisurely position for retirement."
Mu Lao looked at Su Wen and said with a smile: "Are you curious about why I am looking for you?"
Su Wen recalled that he was moved here as soon as he finished the trial, and the other party called out his name.
He estimated that he was probably monitored during the battle in the trial tower.
"Monitoring" is not nice, it is more accurate to describe it as observation.
This is not aimed at Su Wen, but a means of close inspection of all candidates.
"For the enrollment of the highest institution of learning?"
Su Wen looked puzzled, but he was a little surprised in his heart. This old woman who seemed to be dying was actually the deputy director of the admissions office of the highest institution of learning?
And she came to him in person after the trial. Wasn't it a bit too much?
"Not entirely!"
A kind smile appeared on Mu Lao's wrinkled face.
"I mainly want to talk about your future career plan, and... I want to know your opinion on the starry sky!"
Career plan?
Starry sky?
Su Wen looked a little puzzled. He didn't quite understand what the other party meant.
"Career planning? As a shield warrior, isn't my future path to improve my level and get my equipment and skills right?"
"Haha, you are not wrong to have this idea, it is even a generally correct answer!"
"But there are always people in the world who are different from ordinary people, just like you, Meng Yuxuan and Luo Xing who took the exam with you!"
"Even most of the rare professionals are like this!"
"Your starting point is undoubtedly much higher than that of ordinary professionals. In this case, you still have to take an ordinary path like ordinary professionals?"
Su Wen still didn't understand. No matter what profession, isn't the ultimate pursuit the maximum level limit, top-quality equipment and various abnormal skills?
This is true for level one and level 100!
"Compared to ordinary professionals, we only have some extra attribute points for upgrading, and we can comprehend the special skills of our profession at a certain level."
"Besides that, we don't have much advantage, even the legendary profession is the same."
"For example, now." Su Wen held the weapon in front of him, "An ordinary rare profession, taking my weapon to break the trial, the results may not be worse than the two legendary professions!"
"After all, a good profession is just a small helper on the road to becoming stronger!"
Hearing Su Wen's remarks, Mu Lao was a little surprised.
Most young people who have just changed their professions are still immersed in the good or bad of their professions and their development prospects.
There are very few young people who see things as thoroughly as Su Wen.
Even students in the academy are like this, they enjoy the joy of changing to rare professions.
Treat those ordinary professions with a condescending attitude.
Only profession theory!
"Well said, it seems that you have a thorough understanding of this aspect!"
Mu Lao nodded in approval, and then asked: "Since you also said that, the strength of professionals lies in the three general aspects of equipment, skills, and level."
"Take this trial as an example. You rely on this purple equipment and several skills to sweep the trial ground."
"Your advantage over others lies in equipment and skills, right?"
"You are proud of Lv19, but it didn't play any role, right?"
"After all, the level of the trial monster is the same as yours, and you don't have any advantage in this regard!"
Hearing Mu Lao talking about his skills, Su Wen's heart jumped, but his face remained unchanged.
"That's true. I was just lucky and took advantage of it."
Mu Lao rocked the rocking chair, her body swaying slightly, and she smiled again: "If it's like this at low levels, what about high levels, and what about the maximum level?"
"Have you ever thought about this question?"
"Others have accumulated countless years at level 100. Compare their equipment? Compare their skill strength? Which one of you can beat others?"
"Even if it's a life professional, if he has accumulated for decades at level 100, how weak can that person be?"
"Humans are like this, what about monsters?"
"The higher the level, the higher the intelligence of the monsters. They are not a string of codes, but a terrifying force that has the power to destroy Blue Star!"
"These are just the starry sky monsters around Blue Star. As for those farther away... who knows if there are any more?"
Su Wen was stunned when he heard this. Mu Lao was indeed talking about a direction he had never considered.
FirstBefore, he thought that if he could reach the maximum level as quickly as possible, he could rely on the system to gain the most powerful power.
Now, after what Mu Lao said, it seems to make sense.
However, when he was thinking about what Mu Lao said, Su Wen was a little confused.
"According to what you said, the first one to reach the maximum level must be the most powerful, and the latecomers will hardly have the opportunity to surpass them, right?"
Mu Lao shook his rattan stick, and a cup of fragrant tea appeared in front of him.
She took it and took a sip, and then said: "So, isn't this talking about our original topic?"
"You, which way do you want to go?"
"Is it ordinary hard training, quickly reaching level 100, and turning from a genius into a passerby?"
"Or take the path of a true genius?"
Guided by Mu Lao, Su Wen had no other choice.
He didn't want to be bullied everywhere after reaching level 100, so he asked very sincerely.
"Then may I ask Mr. Mu, what exactly is the second path?"
Su Wen stood up, bowed slightly to the old woman in front of him, raised his hands and clasped his fists, performing a courtesy that he thought was appropriate.
"The path of Tianjiao can be summed up in four words: accumulation of foundation!"
"And this foundation is a vast amount of experience! Enough experience to burst everything!"
Hearing this, Su Wen was a little confused again, and he felt a little itchy on his scalp.
It should not be because he didn't wash his hair for the exam today, but because he was growing a brain!
Why didn't he understand after listening?
"Since the experience demand is so high, why not quickly upgrade to level 100?"
"After all, level 100 monsters have the most basic experience. Shouldn't you get the most experience by killing monsters of the same level?"
As if Mu Lao knew Su Wen would ask this, she patiently explained: "Wisdom! I told you before that the higher the level, the higher the intelligence of the monster."
"They won't wait for you to kill them! And some will find a backer for themselves. What can you do under the protection of a powerful monster?"
"Not to mention killing the opponent, even finding some lone monsters is not particularly easy. Otherwise, why would I ask you?"
"So, high level is not necessarily the best time to accumulate experience!"
"By accumulating experience, putting experience into skill upgrades, and then honing your equipment to the best of the moment, you can gain experience with maximum efficiency!"
"Don't think it's a waste of time. You should know that most of the current level 100 strong men are doing what I'm saying."
"It's just that their level is too high, and they can't gain experience as easily as you do. Until now, I rarely hear of the birth of new magical skills!"
"Do you understand why you are asked to take the path of Tianjiao after this explanation?"
