Chapter 11: “Is This a Genius?”

Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL
Class 1.
It was very quiet.
Other than Sophia, who was the teacher, all the students were in meditation.
There was a limit to a sorcerer’s apprentice meditating.
An ordinary sorcerer’s apprentice could only persist for an hour at most before they would exit the meditation state.
Only a sorcerer’s apprentice with better talent could meditate for a longer time.
An hour later.
A few of the students with level three innate magic power were the first to end their meditation. They opened their eyes and looked around.
They didn’t make a sound, and Sophia gestured for them to wait outside so as not to disturb the other students from meditating.
After all, people who were in a meditative state were very easily awakened.
At this time, Lin An had also ended his meditative state, but he didn’t make any movements. He continued to sit in his seat in a daze and didn’t move.
Lin An knew very well that if he moved, it was very likely that he would fail the mission, resulting in him not being able to receive the one thousand points awarded by the system.
At this moment, Sophia looked at Lin An and furrowed her brows.
She could feel that the magical energy around Lin An had already dissipated, which meant that he had ended his meditative state.
But seeing that Lin An was still sitting in his chair without moving, this made her very confused.
“Has the meditation ended? Or…”
Sophia thought of a possibility.
That was that when a magic sorcerer was meditating, there was a certain possibility of entering deep meditation.
Under such a state, the magic energy around a magic sorcerer would be unusually calm, but the improvement would be very rapid.
Sophia didn’t disturb Lin An’s cultivation and continued to observe.
…
Two hours.
One after another, students in the class finished meditating,
at this time, there were only eight people left who could sit in the class and meditate.
Among these eight people, the weakest was at level-5, and the most powerful was Susanna, who was at level-7.
Outside Class 1, those who had finished meditating looked into the classroom with envy.
“To be able to take so long on their first meditation, their talent is too strong.”
“Susanna, my goddess, is definitely the most powerful.”
“Although Susanna is powerful, have you forgotten about Lin An? That’s a supreme-level element affinity monster.”
“I didn’t expect there to be such a terrifying existence among us. It’s not something we can compare to.”
“Guess how much innate magic power this Lin An has, I think it’s at least at the grandmaster level.”
“I think it’s more than that. With the supreme-level of elemental affinity, his innate magic power is at least at the transcendent-level.”
…
At this moment, Lin An felt a little tormented sitting in his seat.
If he was meditating, he would naturally not feel so uncomfortable.
However, Lin An had already ended his meditation long ago and was just sitting in his seat foolishly.
However, it wasn’t like Lin An didn’t do anything. In Lin An’s mind, there was a mission countdown.
There was still more than an hour left.
Soon, three hours passed.
There were only three people left in the classroom — Sophia, Susanna, and Lin An.
Sophia’s attention was completely focused on Susanna and Lin An.
Sophia looked at Susanna’s position and muttered to herself, “This Susanna’s talent is not bad. She might become a grandmaster magic sorcerer in the future.”
Susanna’s talent could be seen on the surface. The magic energy around her was rich, and she was much more powerful than the other students.
However, Lin An, who was beside Susanna, made Sophia unable to see through him.
Not long after, Susanna woke up from her meditation.
At this time, Susanna also noticed the situation in the classroom.
Especially when she saw that Lin An was still sitting on the chair and meditating, she was very surprised.
“He’s still meditating. As expected of a genius with supreme-level elemental affinity.”
Susanna didn’t disturb Lin An and carefully left the classroom.
At this moment, Lin An was the only one who was still meditating in the classroom.
However, Lin An didn’t open his eyes, so he wasn’t clear about the situation in the classroom. Otherwise, it would definitely be very awkward.
Outside the classroom.
The students of class one were all talking in low voices.
“It’s been almost four hours, yet Lin An is still meditating.”
“Is this a genius? He’s so much stronger than us.”
“Lin An will definitely be able to become a powerful magic sorcerer in the future.”
…
Indeed, Lin An had already displayed his powerful strength during the assessment.
And now, he was also surpassing everyone in terms of meditation.
However, if they knew that Lin An had already ended his meditation and was just sitting quietly, they wouldn’t know what to think.
Soon, four hours had passed.
“Ding dong! Congratulations to the host for completing the mission. The reward is 1000 points.”
As the system’s voice rang out, Lin An decisively ended his meditation. He opened his eyes and was stunned when he saw that all the students had left.
“Were you meditating just now?”
At this moment, Sophia’s voice rang out.
Hearing this, Lin An’s heart panicked.
Could it be that his pretention had been discovered?
However, Lin An still appeared very calm on the surface and said, “Yes, Teacher Sophia.”
Sophia didn’t continue to ask.
In her opinion, Lin An had either entered a state of deep meditation, or he was pretending to meditate there.
But why was he pretending to meditate?
Sophia didn’t know, so she didn’t probe further.
If he pretended to be a genius, he would be exposed sooner or later.
Class was dismissed.
Lin An had just walked out of the classroom when he saw Susanna walking towards him.
“Lin An, your talent is really amazing. The other students all praised you as a genius,” Susanna said enthusiastically.
This made Lin An stunned for a moment.
A genius after meditating for four hours?
If he meditated for a day, wouldn’t he directly become a Dharma God?
After Lin An and Susanna talked for a while, they headed straight for the cafeteria.
As soon as they arrived at the cafeteria, Lin An was shocked by the food in the cafeteria.
It was all the meat of low-level magical beasts.
One had to know that in the outside world, the meat of magical beasts was a very precious ingredient, but in this cafeteria, it was the most common dish.
However, this was also because there was a magical beast forest not far from Rand Town.
The teachers in the academy would hunt low-level magical beasts from the magical beast forest and bring them back to the academy for the sake of the growth of the students in the academy.
Lin An finished his lunch and returned to his dorm to rest for a while before continuing his afternoon classes.
