Chapter 8 – Wishful Thinking

At Holy Light Academy, students usually studied for 6 hours a day: three hours in the , and three hours in the afternoon However Sou Jia actually studied for a total of 18 hours!

Suo Jia only slept for 6 hours a day During the rest of his ti the theories behind the Moisture Technique or drawing the required ic book’s explanations, as long as one could use the water element fluently and accurately to recreate the Moisture Technique’s respective rams, one could successfully utilize the Moisture Technique

In the blink of an eye, two irls in the class could already use the Moisture Technique Despite the fact that Suo Jia wasand practiced thrice as often, he still was fruitless in his endeavor to apply the theory and could not perform the Moisture Technique

There were two reasons for this; the first was that Suo Jia’s natural talent was definitely inferior to that of any girl in the class A female’s natural talent in the water element was innate and could not be cultivated

The second reason was that all the girls had staffs while Suo Jia did not Although staffs were relatively inexpensive (the cheapest costing only 100 gold), Suo Jia, even on his death bed, refused to ask his mother to buy one for him He sa thin and pale hishimself to ask her for one

Suo Jia clearly understood that his th to maintain their current mother-son relationship When even hisic without a staff

A staff is simply a piece of wood eic When releasing y of the spell for as one completes the spell formation at so formations with one’s hands is quite different First, the drawing speed has to be quick The ic power needed to execute the spell will be scattered Due to not having the crystal’s storage abilities, the spell results in failure

The second ic foric spell forhtly deviates from the pattern, the spell will not activate The truth is, the error allowance of the spell diagrale millimeter could not be pere draws a formation needed to cast a spell, it must be done with a confident and unconstrained action; a very natural and flowing style of drawing Soon after the spell is released, it must be kept steady from start to finish If your actions become too fast or too slow, then you will definitely not be able to cast any spells successfully

Seeing Suo Jia’s anxious expression, the female lecturer clearly knew that if Suo Jia had a staff, he would immediately be able to use the Moisture Technique With his control over water and his diligent attitude, he would definitely have been the first child able to use the Moisture Technique It was truly regretful however that Sou Jia did not own a staff

Tightly wrinkling her brows, the fe alone in the corner practicing over and over again After pondering for a long ti his instructor approaching, Suo Jia stopped his training and lifted his head towards the feaze, the female lecturer helplessly said: “Suo Jia, listen to Teacher’s words In theory, bare hands can activate ic with the borrowed power froic with bare hands has e aic power cannot support the duration you need to cast the spell!”

Hearing the teacher’s words, Suo Jia’s face immediately turned ashen Recently, he had developed quite a bit of confidence in the way he trained Speed, accuracy, and stability had all been ic spells could not be maintained, and would fade away before he had the tiic poas larger, than these er That way, he would successfully be able to activatethat could be rushed all at once; it required a long time to accumulate
