Magic Industrial Age

The next day,

Early morning.

The October morning sun was somewhat dim, coupled with the lingering mist, making the world appear hazy.

With Shen Lan around, oversleeping was never an option, and Luo Yi woke up early.

Of course, the manor's servants woke up even earlier; they had already prepared hot water, toiletries, and breakfast.

To them, Luo Yi's status was esteemed, and breakfast was naturally lavish.

The freshly baked white bread was very soft, and it tasted even better with some butter and cheese.

Instead of coffee, a bowl of mushroom soup was served, with diced meat and mushrooms cooked together, making it exceptionally delicious.

This world may not be materially rich, but it has some good food, and Luo Yi ate very contentedly, even having two bowls of mushroom soup.

After breakfast, Butler Hoover drove the carriage out again, taking Luo Yi to the Philante Magic Academy.

On the way, Luo Yi didn't waste any words and directly handed over the letter he had written last night.

Old Hoover took it and asked, "What's this?"

Luo Yi said straightforwardly, "Here's what you wanted. I've written everything clearly, but it's up to the Earl to decide whether to adopt it or not!"

"That's enough! This is enough!"

Old Hoover was very excited and looked at Luo Yi earnestly, "Young Master is here. If anything happens, you can always tell me!

Although I'm just a butler, the Earl has many properties, and I can still do some things."

Luo Yi nodded but didn't say anything else. He entered the carriage, closed his eyes slightly, and began to plan his cultivation for the day.

Last night, Shen Lan had selected the most suitable breathing technique for him from many, originally named the Cheetah Breathing Technique.

There are many types of breathing techniques, and they differ in category, with varying directions and effects of amplification.

Previously, the Knight Breathing Technique was the mainstream of the era, focusing on strength and supplemented by physique.

For example, the representative Bear Breathing Technique, after practicing, one could obtain the physique and strength of a bear.

But now, speed is the mainstream, and increasing reaction speed and agility has become the norm. The Cheetah Breathing Technique is one of the best.

Practitioners will gain extreme nerve reflex ability, body coordination, balance, and flexibility, while the increase in strength and physique is not significant, but both are improved.

It is the first choice for professions such as assassins, swift swordsmen, and wind walkers.

Of course, what Luo Yi learned was not the original version, but Shen Lan's modified version.

In the library of Philante Magic Academy, Luo Yi obtained a total of twenty-three breathing techniques, although none were high-level and didn't involve the awakening of subsequent Dou Qi attributes, they were comprehensive enough.

They almost covered all types that could be found on the market, involving all directions.

Several days ago, Shen Lan had used the 'Analysis Module' to perform in-depth analysis, analyzing the specific principles of the breathing techniques.

According to Shen Lan's explanation, breathing techniques are actually a unique method of condensing bio-energy.

Through high-intensity training, combined with individual physical fitness and elemental particles in the air, mixed in a certain way, a unique bio-energy is condensed in the body.

This bio-energy has the effect of temporarily amplifying physical fitness, providing the body with what it needs, accelerating the recovery of injuries, and stimulating muscle爆发.

It is said that higher levels can even possess different attribute damage, earth, fire, wind, water, holy light, and thunder, each different.

But that is a bit far off and has nothing to do with the current Luo Yi.

What is related to him now is actually Shen Lan's optimization based on the analyzed principles, using the 'Cheetah Breathing Technique' as a foundation, and based on Luo Yi's physical condition.

The new version of the Cheetah Breathing Technique is customized. Last night, under the 'Assisted Learning Module,' he had already practiced all night, and today is the practice.

The carriage rumbled, moving quickly, and arrived at Philante Academy around 7:40.

Luo Yi said goodbye to Butler Hoover, entered the academy alone, and began to warm up on the training ground.

Bones, ligaments, joints, muscles...

Under Shen Lan's instruction, a series of movements made Luo Yi feel like a switch had been turned on in his body, every cell was actively beating, and his focus was also enhanced to the best.

Then, Luo Yi practiced the Swift Sword Technique three times, and the rapier broke through the air. The sound of '咻咻咻' was continuous, and the sword shadow swayed, as if completely enveloping him. Almost no one dared to approach within three meters.

Although Luo Yi was slightly inferior to the sword technique teacher, Mr. Williams Keller, in the Swift Sword Technique, the difference was that he improved and grew almost every day.

Taking time out, Luo Yi also glanced at his attribute panel.

The level naturally remained unchanged. Without the support of Dou Qi, Tier 1 Level 5 was the limit, and [Agility] was still 10 points.

There was no way around it. This was the limit of mortals. No matter how he cultivated, he could only maintain it.

Even with age, the human body would naturally grow and decline.

Only the [Physique] bar had become 9 points. This was the result of Luo Yi's conscious targeted training over the past month.

Reflected in Luo Yi, the muscles were like countless steel wires twisted together, with distinct lines and extremely strong resistance.

When his body was completely warmed up, half an hour had passed, the class bell had already rung, and other students had begun training.

Physical education teacher Matthew Bolivar and swordsmanship teacher Williams Keller had already arrived and were supervising and guiding a group of students.

Because of the large number of people, the two teachers initially taught separately, but later they directly combined them.

The class was divided into two parts, half practicing physical fitness first, and half practicing swordsmanship. After half the time, they switched over.

They were already accustomed to Luo Yi's self-cultivation, but today, they couldn't help but get together.

Matthew couldn't stop the surprise on his face: "Luo Yi is practicing breathing techniques?"

Williams was naturally more familiar. He said, "Cheetah Breathing Technique. I didn't expect him to practice breathing techniques first?!

Although magic power and Dou Qi are not mutually exclusive and can coexist, as long as one exists, it will interfere, and the difficulty of entering another will increase.

Doesn't he know this?"

Matthew looked at Williams and said, "Shouldn't this be the content of your swordsmanship teacher's class? Didn't you tell him?"

"I really didn't, but do you think it's necessary?"

Williams withdrew his gaze from Luo Yi, looked at Matthew, and said, "This one must have a heritage. He's practicing breathing techniques in a decent manner. Why do we need to be nosy?

So, just keep an eye on the other students!"

"This is also his own choice."

"You're right to say that!"

Matthew didn't say anything more, but he still couldn't help but take a few more glances. At this time, Luo Yi had also reached a critical moment in his cultivation.

The starting condition of a breathing technique is naturally that the physical fitness must be good. During practice, you need to pay attention to the breathing frequency and match it with special movements, thereby stimulating some extremely critical 'points' in the human body.

Luo Yi got started quickly. He couldn't help but be fast. First, his physical fitness was up to par, and his flexibility was excellent. Even the movements of the Cheetah Breathing Technique, which could be described as twisting people into hemp ropes, were easy for him.

On the other hand, it was naturally the assisted learning module, which standardized each movement, and he was familiar with every breath and every exhalation in detail.

Of course, the learning module is ultimately an assistant. After the real practice, the feeling is different.

Luo Yi clearly felt that some places in his body seemed to be continuously stimulated, and wisps of heat flowed around.

These heat flows were not controlled by him, and they were faint, and even when you wanted to look closely, you felt a bit illusory.

When the effect weakened, Luo Yi changed another movement, and the 'points' on other parts were stimulated again, and there was still heat flowing.

But whenever Luo Yi tried to control it, it ended in failure, and even caused them to escape.

The only result was that they vaguely seemed to flow to the heart.

After practicing the breathing technique once, even with Luo Yi's physical fitness, his forehead was sweating, his muscles were sore, and he was steaming with heat.

However, after only resting for five minutes, Luo Yi began his second attempt.

The difference was that this time Shen Lan spoke, and the 'Health Monitoring Module' was turned on, constantly providing feedback on his physical condition.

Then, with each of Luo Yi's cultivation, he began to guide, some of which were places where Luo Yi's own movements and breathing were not in place, and some were places that needed to be optimized after practice.

Practice can only produce true knowledge, and the previous analysis and optimization were still in a general direction.

But now, it is to fit Luo Yi's physical characteristics and various fine-tuning in subtle places.

The effect of this second time seemed to be more significant, but Luo Yi only practiced these two times and stopped.

There was no way, it was really like the body was exhausted.

His heartbeat accelerated, his muscles were sore, he was weak, and the feeling of hunger was like a tide. Luo Yi hadn't felt this kind of fatigue for a long time.

He could only sit there and rest, watching a group of students practice, until the end of class bell rang, he rushed into the school cafeteria like a starving ghost.

This day for lunch, he ate twice the usual amount of food before he felt full and felt better.

In the afternoon, there was a meditation class, and Luo Yi went to it.

The meditation teacher, Rando Baldes, was a good teacher. Under his guidance, some students had entered a state of shallow meditation.

But Luo Yi was very uncomfortable. Not to mention shallow meditation, it was difficult for him to just hold his breath and concentrate and remove distracting thoughts.

Perhaps it was the awakening of past lives' wisdom, he had too many thoughts, and sitting there, distracting thoughts were disturbing.

One was pressed down, and another floated up, back and forth, endlessly.

For him, this was really not an easy task.

As for the other time, Luo Yi soaked in the library. He couldn't go to the second floor, and he finished reading the transcendent area, so he read other books.

From literature to poetry, from medicine to herbs, from gazetteers to race evolution, from legends of the gods to faith churches...

Anyway, he read everything, and he was not interested in anything.

Yes, he was not interested, at most he flipped through it and recorded it in the storage module.

Repeatedly, in the blink of an eye, it was five days later, and Luo Yi finally entered the door of breathing techniques.

Private customization, this is the correct use of Shen Lan, one of them!
