Is It Weird for a Guy to Apply to a Witch School?

Chapter 483: The Concept of Life Level

”That’s right, Xiao Han, you don’t even know this then... do you want me to tell you? Do you want to know about the life level... or the suppression?”

”I want to know both,” I said without hesitation.

”Eh? So greedy?”

”One is a concept and the other is a derivative application, right? If you explain what the life level is, it’s equivalent to explaining what the so-called suppression of the life level is,” I said.

At least for me, if I understand a concept, then I have the confidence to derive the corresponding application technique.

”That’s true but Xiao Han, do you know? Knowledge also has value. What are you going to use to exchange for this knowledge?”

”I respect the value of knowledge. If you plan to use this method to realize it again, then I will choose my way to get it for free.”

”Oh dear just kidding, just kidding, how could I use this to damage our friendship? This is basic knowledge. Any student who is preparing to advance to a Transcendent Witch will be taught this basic knowledge.”

Liffia quickly dismissed her previous words as nonsense with a laugh.

”Then I’ll trouble Senior to explain it to me, okay? After all, Senior just said... if you knew, you would definitely tell me,” I didn’t mind what she said just now, after all, it was something Liffia would do.

If I really had to wait until after the joint exam to ask Big Sis Bai, that would be a bit troublesome.

My curiosity about the concept of life level would also affect my mood.

”Yes! I did say that just now,” Liffia said seriously.

”So... back to the original question, Xiao Han, how much do you know about the concept of life level?”

”I’ve only heard of it. I know it’s the key to advancing to a Transcendent Witch. I don’t know anything else. Oh, and the Magic Power Source seems to be able to subtly promote the improvement of the life level.”

I thought for a moment about my understanding of the life level, and in the end, I could only find these general descriptions.

”Oh? You know quite a lot, huh?”

”Wait, is this already considered knowing a lot?”

I asked in confusion.

”That’s right. Do you still want to study the deeper things of the concept of life level? That’s not something we should study. We just need to know that the Magic Power Source can improve the life level and let life be transformed. That’s almost enough. Understanding its role is to let us obtain the opportunity to advance to the Transcendent level. Oh, I almost forgot, there is also the potential for the essence of life to transform the soul. Xiao Han, do you know the concept of the soul?”

”I do.”

I nodded.

It seems that I have been certified by the Academy Head as having the essence of a soul, so I don’t need to worry about this at all.

”You actually know? You’ve learned about the great project of the soul, right?”

Liffia said in surprise.

”Right...”

I nodded and didn’t deny it, because I had also learned a little about the great project of the soul.

”Then it’s fine. I won’t talk about the soul. Let’s talk about the life level. Didn’t you want to know about this? To put it bluntly, the life level is how long you can live.”

”?”

Listening to Liffia’s explanation, I silently typed a question mark.

”Don’t look at me... I’m explaining it to you in a way I understand. Isn’t the life level just dividing the level of life into many levels? But life can’t be described by any numerical value, so this is just an abstract metaphor. It’s good if you can understand it. If you can’t, I can’t help it...”

”Alright then, you continue. But before that, I’m very curious about which levels the life level is divided into?”

I continued to ask, not getting too tangled up in this aspect.

After all, things at the Transcendent level are very complex.

”I also asked my mentor this question, but she told me that the life level is only divided into two levels, Transcendent and non-Transcendent, which is like saying nothing. However, there is a set of self-grading that has been passed down from generation to generation by senior sisters in the academy. This grading refers to the general division of the non-Transcendent level, because the transformation of the life level in this process does not have very obvious characteristics, so it can only be used as a reference.”

”Experience summed up from generation to generation? Interesting. Can you tell me about it?”

I naturally had no questions about this, and even had a feeling of ”this is right.”

Isn’t the grading of spellbooks in the Witch Academy like this?

”Of course,” Liffia said.

She was riding a broom and had nothing to do on the dark sea, so it was a good opportunity to popularize some knowledge for her junior.

”The division of the life level needs to be based on the apparent characteristics of life, such as life activities, energy, physical strength, resistance, adaptability, resistance to death, and so on. These are all external manifestations of the life level.”

”The first level of life is called an ordinary person. You have some concept of an ordinary person’s energy, physical strength, and resistance, right?”

”Mhm, I know these. Then does the improvement of the life level also mean that these abilities will also improve?”

I continued to ask.

”Of course. After crossing the first level of an ordinary person, it is the extraordinary level, which is also the second level.”

”The description of the second level is relatively general, because the differences between individuals make pure and precise numerical values meaningless in this division. Therefore, the description of the extraordinary level is a significant increase in physical energy, physical strength, resistance, and so on. The specific manifestations are abundant energy, being able to stay up for several days without any problems, great strength, being able to move very heavy things, some basic diseases are almost completely eradicated in us. Unless interfered with by a spell effect, our lives at the extraordinary level almost never get any minor illnesses.”

”Oh...”

I nodded.

I understood this.

I was almost at this level now.

I could stay up for several days without any problems, and I had never been sick.

As for strength... I hadn’t paid attention to this.

After all, I was still a body cultivator, so this reference was not very meaningful.

”Then what are the so-called adaptability and resistance to death? Especially the resistance to death,” I continued to ask.

”Adaptability is very simple. It’s the ability to adapt to the external environment. The survival of life requires many things, such as food, water, rare elements, air, and so on. These are essential needs. Adaptability does not simply mean that you don’t need these external things, but it refers to the method of obtaining these external things.”

”But the external manifestation is that you generally don’t need to consume too many of these things to maintain your physical signs. At an extraordinary level, our demand for these things doesn’t change much. At most, we can withstand heat and cold, hold our breath for a long time, and live and jump for a long time without food or water.”

”Then what about the resistance to death?”

I continued to ask this question that I was very concerned about.

”It’s the literal meaning. The improvement of the life level makes the fatal injuries that ordinary people would have suffered only reach the level of serious injuries for extraordinary people. The main thing is the improvement of the body’s self-healing ability and needs. Simply put, it will become harder to kill, and the probability of survival will increase.”

”Oh...”

I nodded.

It is said that witches like to court death.

It seems that there is a reason for this.

All Transcendent Witches start at the extraordinary level, so they generally seem to like to court death and are not afraid of death.

It’s just that I’m a little curious why other Transcendent races don’t have rumors of loving to court death.

Even before reaching the Transcendent level, just at the extraordinary level, they already have a resistance to death.

Then the Transcendent level should have reached a level that we can’t understand.

”The improvement of the life level is an all-around improvement. I just listed a few very obvious characteristics for your reference,” saying this, Liffia organized her language and continued to explain to me, ”The naming of the levels after the extraordinary level is based on the more typical characteristics of that stage. For example, after the extraordinary level is the aura level, which is what you call pressure. This life level is a long process. During this period, you will still be improving in all aspects, including physical fitness and even mental power will be passively improved. You will gradually turn this aura into an instinct. With a thought, you can suppress anyone whose life level is lower than yours.”

”Eh? Is this the so-called application? Directly using it as an instinct?”

I asked in disbelief.

So simple, and... a natural progression?

This was simply unbelievably coincidental!

”Of course, what else do you want?”

Liffia asked irritably, ”Don’t question this kind of thing. It’s like you’re asking why meteorites always fall into craters. I don’t know how to explain this self-evident thing to you.”

”Sorry, my understanding didn’t keep up. Then what’s after the aura level?”

I quickly organized my thoughts and continued this topic.

”After the aura level is the undead level.”

”Huh? Wait, why did it jump so fast?”

”Didn’t I just say that the aura level is a long process of accumulation. During this period, there is no obvious qualitative change in the improvement of any ability. You can’t just say that because your strength has increased and your self-healing ability is very strong, you should create another level, right? That’s so troublesome, and it’s meaningless.”

”That’s right, please continue.”

”The undead level is not really undead, it’s just close to undead. I heard that a senior sister once asked a mentor to use a resurrection spell as a backup to test the limit of the undead level. Because it was too bloody, I heard that it was unilaterally stopped by the academy. But that senior sister was not killed to the point of needing a resurrection spell to be revived until she was stopped.”

”Ah... that’s too much of a death-courting, isn’t it...”

”This is called a lack of reverence for life!”

Liffia corrected me seriously, ”Anyway, I wouldn’t dare to do that. You just need to know that reaching this level of life is roughly that perverted.”

”Mhm...”

I nodded.

This reminded me of that Ninglan Qiuyu I met in Ninglan New City.

After receiving the blessing of the abyss... she couldn’t be killed.

Reaching the undead level of life was probably like that...

But can life really do that?

After reaching that level, can it still be called life?

Thinking of this, I shook my head slightly and denied this idea.

After all, I had also learned about the process of the interpretation of life in the void.

My definition of life should not be limited to the inherent thinking of the past or even my previous life.

”As for the final level, which is the pseudo-Transcendent level, this level is quite interesting. Even the academy has adopted this name, because the pseudo-Transcendent level really starts to touch the Transcendent level. I’m not very good at describing it in detail. You just need to know this stage. By the way, do you know about True Time?”

”I do.”

”You even know this concept? Hmm... that brightly lit place in front should be the island where the Witch Academy is, right? I won’t go into too much detail. In short, this life level is probably related to True Time. If you want to know more, you can learn from the mentor you follow. She definitely knows a lot more than I do.”

Finally, seeing that they were almost there, Liffia also timely ended her explanation.

Because she herself didn’t know much about the pseudo-Transcendent level.

Or rather, most of the teaching assistants were also exploring at this stage.

If they had figured this out, who would still be a teaching assistant?

They could almost directly study their own project and apply for advancement to the Transcendent level.

”Thank you. Even just knowing this is enough for me,” I said with a thank you.

After all, I wanted to know just to satisfy my own curiosity.

Once my curiosity was satisfied, it wouldn’t be too late to discuss this problem with Big Sis Bai later.

After all, the temptation of advancing to a Transcendent Witch was also great for me.

...

”Oh yo look at how much information my main body has synchronized for me. Hmm, it’s really explosive! I think this will be very helpful for you to understand the current situation.”

At this moment, a faint light had already appeared on the horizon.

The darkest period of the night had passed.

Tan Han was naturally not asleep yet.

Even now, she was not very sleepy.

At this moment, she was integrating the information she had obtained, and then planning the various difficulties she might encounter next.

Finally, she was preparing to officially attack the main island tomorrow.

She suddenly found that having such a subconscious clone to help her solve problems was really a good feeling.

But at this moment, this clone suddenly became frivolous.

She was saying strange things, and her tone became flirtatious.

This change made her subconsciously stunned for a moment, and then she reacted.

This was Xiao Han coming back!

After a moment of surprise, she also realized that she couldn’t show anything unusual, just silently doing her own thing.

But the joy in her heart could not be concealed.

She was also very curious about what level her initial plan for this joint exam was in Xiao Han’s eyes.

It was not that Tan Han admitted that her level in this aspect was inferior to Xiao Han’s, but that she could clearly recognize that sometimes, intelligence was far better than a smart mind.

The dimensionality reduction attack of intelligence could completely overthrow a smart person’s efforts.

At this moment, Tan Han chose to get up directly.

She needed to discuss her planned attack plan with others.

Of course, from the outside, Tan Han seemed to be discussing the feasibility of the plan with her friends, but she knew that she was just using this form to discuss it with Xiao Han.

After all, you have to do the whole show.

”Big Sis Tan Han, is the new plan complete? Which parts have been changed?”

Seeing Tan Han come out of the tent, the few who were on night watch because they couldn’t sleep immediately came up.

”Minian, you’re not asleep yet?”

Tan Han greeted the person who came, ”Just in time, let’s go over the plan together.”

As Tan Han spoke, a sand table map of the Bobapus Archipelago emerged from the Earth Vein operating system on her body.

The previous paper map had been used by her for drafts and as an emergency backup.

So she had taken advantage of the ample time at night to use the Earth Vein operating system she had brought to build a 3D map model and make a sand table, which would look more intuitive.

”Big Sis Tan Han, you actually brought this too? This is too convenient!”

”Mhm, it’s just a tool. Before the sun completely rises, let’s review it with me again,” Tan Han said.
