Elemental Card King.

Chapter 41 Meditation Catalogue
On Tuesday, some good news arrived.

That means an extra meditation class will be added this week, and it just so happens to be this afternoon.

"Two holidays a week, what a great thing!"

"I'd be willing to take up some of my after-school time; I hope there will be more of this kind of awesome thing."

The thought that the last class on Tuesday would suddenly be changed from a card class to a meditation class filled everyone with anticipation and excitement.

"Is this a way to benefit the bottom-ranked students in our rocket class and accelerate their cultivation?" Xu Zigui pondered.

"Your information is outdated. Those people were selected based on merit, and everyone was fully aware of the situation by the weekend."

someone retorted.

"And Xu, could you please stop talking badly about other people?" Class monitor Xiao Tingting was speechless; the title of "bottom of the class" was really damaging to the friendship among classmates.

She swore that this guy would offend Wang Liyang, the leader of the training camp, sooner or later.

It's just a matter of time.

down one day.

It seemed that no one was really thinking about the class this morning.

Especially political history classes, which are known for being dry and boring, and long passages of memorization are extremely annoying.

During class, perhaps because everyone seemed distracted, the somewhat elderly history and politics teacher suddenly put down his textbook.

He asked with a smile, "Do any students know who established the year 1 AD of the Glorious Era, and then why was that year chosen as the landmark first year?"

"Teacher, me!"

Xu Zigui, who had seemed somewhat bored just a second ago, immediately raised his right hand.

This was the first time he had shown such enthusiasm in a humanities class.

"bring it on."

The history teacher nodded, signaling him to stand up and answer.

Xu Zigui immediately stood up and said excitedly, "Because that year was a miracle year in the entire history of card games."

"First of all, there is the great hero Qi Lingxiao, who invented the Unity Meditation Method that year, which laid the foundation for the new landscape of card games today."

"At the same time, he also pioneered 'plane measurement science,' and in that year he successfully and perfectly determined the collision time and location of a small plane with an error of less than 6 seconds."

"His wife, Qin Hong, was an unparalleled god-level card master at the time."

"besides."

"Dr. Morris invented the first prototype of the card weapon back then. He also founded the card engineering and mechanical integration major back then and is the father of today's card-driven weapons."

"The three handwritten manuscripts he left behind have benefited future generations for hundreds of years, and even today, a large number of caliber mechanics take pride in solving the Morris problem."

"The cosmology school, which has influenced generations to this day, was founded by Dr. Louise in the same year."

"."

"Legendary card maker Norton created and invented the Special Summoning Cards, Beast Spirit Cards, Special Creature Weapon Cards, and Legion Cards. He was the creator of hundreds of card series."

"."

"Their greatness needs no further explanation."

Xu Zigui spoke fluently and at length, as if reciting a familiar story.

Students who had always disliked his speech, and even those familiar with this period of history, listened with great interest.

Indeed, the heroic historical perspective is still too appealing.

Card players, in particular, naturally have a stronger yearning for power.

The political history teacher, who looked like an old scholar, smiled. Even he had to admit that these heroes had truly changed the world's ecology and ushered in a glorious era.

Strictly speaking, Xu Zigui's answer did not fully explain the reasons for the establishment of the year 1 AD.

After gesturing for Xu Zigui to sit down, the history and politics teacher, whose temples were graying, noticed that the students' energy levels in the classroom had noticeably increased.

He said with satisfaction, "You must remember that what is even greater about them than their strength is their personal character."

"The Unity Meditation Method and the design blueprints for the Kawu Drive were selflessly shared by Qi Lingxiao and Dr. Morris in the same year."

"Further exchanges and integration of cultural doctrines, along with close cooperation among top combat forces, quickly brought the nations of Earth together. Fifteen years later, the Earth Alliance political system was officially established."

"After unifying the global calendar, the Alliance designated the landmark miracle year as AD 1."

under.

Su Chen was also listening attentively.

He was very familiar with this period of history, and had even used his mental power to quickly sketch the first chapter of political history, "The Beginning of the Blue Star Alliance's Political System," just last week.

"Attention!"

At this moment, the history teacher's smile vanished, and he suddenly became serious, saying, "Most of the heroes' achievements occurred before the age of 30, but even earlier, the seeds of great innovations were already sown in their youth. People naturally have varying degrees of interest in something."

"You may not like history and politics classes, thinking that you can get high scores just by memorizing them with your excellent memory. But if you do like a certain field, please give it your all."

"For example, are you sure you're going to give it your all in the practical training sessions if you dream of becoming a great card master?"

Are you sure that what you've learned and the little bit of sweat you've put in is worthy of your dreams?

"If you can't accept being mediocre, then you should work hard and get full marks in political history."

Good heavens, the true intentions have been revealed.

After going around in circles, this history and politics teacher with reading glasses used the opportunity to start rectifying the classroom atmosphere and indiscriminately reprimanded some students who were distracted and lazy in class.

Du Hanping lowered his head, seemingly having his secret exposed, and looked completely vulnerable.

Xu Zigui had been looking forward to hearing more heroic tales, but his interest was immediately dampened by the teacher's barrage of questions.

Su Chen remained calm, showing no signs of disappointment.

The political history class ended in such a serious atmosphere.

In the afternoon, everyone's favorite meditation class finally arrived.

When everyone saw their round-faced homeroom teacher, Yu Dong, they felt he became even more kind and approachable.

but
This class was a little special.

The wall facing everyone in the meditation room was covered by a black cloth. Judging from its thickness, something was hidden underneath, and it seemed that a huge panel was hanging on the wall.

"Everyone knows Qi Lingxiao, who created the Guiyi Meditation Method in 1 AD, right?"

Teacher Yu Dong had just finished speaking.

Most of the students felt that their bad memories had been triggered, and they looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Teacher, are you sure you don't want to steer the conversation to something else?" Xu Zigui said timidly.

What's going on down there?
Yu Dong was somewhat bewildered, and after understanding the ins and outs of the matter, he was left speechless, both amused and exasperated.

After offering a few words of encouragement, let's get back to the main topic.

"Beyond the mental cultivation, card making, strengthening, repairing, and decomposing aspects of the Unity Meditation Method, in order to supplement its wondrous mental applications and complete its methods of combat, Qi Lingxiao and his wife Qin Hong traveled all over the world, visiting renowned holy sites and sects across the globe."

"After a friendly exchange, they collected many of the top meditation methods circulating at the time, simplified them, and compiled them into a thick illustrated meditation book."

"If we include the numerous additions made by later generations, there are at least five hundred meditation images that can be examined at present."

At this moment, many people glanced at the black cloth covering the area, and without much thought, they knew that a so-called meditation diagram was hidden underneath.

As the homeroom teacher narrated the story, everyone listened quietly to the history.

Especially when it came to the most advanced ancient meditation methods, everyone became highly focused.

Su Chen listened attentively and took notes.

When Su Chen heard about the Taiyin Refining Method, now transformed into an Eclipse Moon Diagram meant only for women to comprehend, his thoughts immediately turned to Xia He.

"The icy, cold temperament should match."

As expected, Xia He had already contracted the third card and spent time and effort comprehending the Eclipse Moon Diagram.

She is so ambitious.

At this point, with the teacher's eloquent explanation, everyone quickly memorized a lot of knowledge.

Among the most advanced ancient meditation methods.
The Azure Lotus Meditation Method has now been transformed into an Azure Lotus diagram, from which practitioners can gain the characteristic of rapid recovery of mental energy, making it the best method for sustaining energy in battle.

The Vajra mantra practice, manifested as a meditation image, gradually grants those who delve deeper into its meaning immunity to any mental shocks and various negative effects, making their physical constitution as indestructible as Vajra.

The Tai Xu Visualization Method transforms into a star map; those who delve deeper into its understanding can acquire astrological spiritual skills.

The Dragon and Elephant Prajna Dharma transforms into a dragon and elephant image. The mind is the master of the body. Those who comprehend it more deeply can awaken the latent energy in their body's cells, making their physical strength and endurance stronger.

Besides that.

There are also levitation techniques that allow the body to fly, the tortoise breathing technique that prolongs life and promotes health, and the Ice Soul Meditation technique that amplifies the damage of ice-type cards, and so on.

After listening, everyone felt that the path of cultivation was truly arduous and long. Without comprehending the meditation diagram, it was as if the card master's own combat power had a weakness, and their physical constitution was really fragile compared to the summoned beasts.

However, once one begins to comprehend it, it seems to somewhat hinder the progress of one's spiritual power.

The balance in this seems difficult to maintain.

Furthermore, are they truly capable of achieving enlightenment within this stage?

Isn't this a bit beyond the scope of the curriculum?

This chapter's "Miracle Year" setting references miracle years in the history of science. The previous chapter's annual card copyright negotiation day was a modified version of real-world national healthcare negotiations. Before publishing the book, many settings were laid out, but I hadn't found the right angle to introduce them. The dimensional world setting will be revealed little by little later, so as not to leave the reader feeling bored.
