I Can Give Talents

"What's wrong? Why are all of you looking at him like that?" Kajol asked, clearly baffled by the sudden shift in atmosphere.

"That's because my husband already practices Spiritual Cultivation," Anda answered with a smile.

"What?" Kajol's eyes widened in surprise. "Don't tell me… Are you part of the project?"

She was not involved in the Spiritual Cultivation research herself, so she was not privy to the internal details. She had been just as shocked as everyone else when the academy announced it almost a year ago.

As a dedicated researcher, she had even tried practicing Spiritual Cultivation herself out of pure curiosity. The path demanded extreme focus and mental discipline from its practitioners.

Thankfully, achieving that level of focus was not a big problem for someone at her cultivation realm. Being able to enter a deep state of concentration was an innate ability that naturally improved as one's cultivation advanced.

Not to mention, she had already unlocked the first three realms of Spiritual Cultivation through ordinary Qi Cultivation, which made testing it much easier.

After going through all the mantras, she had to admit there were noticeable improvements to her Spiritual Sense, Spiritual Pressure, and Spiritual Touch. However, at her level, those improvements felt relatively insignificant. Once a cultivator reached the Nascent Soul Realm, they gradually shifted toward relying more on soul power anyway.

As for the Spiritual Domain, she had not been able to experience it because that realm was the hardest to practice and could not be achieved in a short time.

In the end, she had concluded that Spiritual Cultivation was quite a good alternative path, especially for those without a spirit root.

Right now, the starting requirements for Spiritual Cultivation are extremely high for mortals. The level of focus and concentration it demanded was not something normal people could achieve easily.

However, all of these limitations could be improved in the future. People would surely come up with more methods to make Spiritual Cultivation easier and more accessible, similar to how Qi Cultivation had been gradually refined and improved over numerous millennia. Whether through better mantras, alternative training methods to strengthen one's focus, special alchemy products, or other innovations, progress would come.

"No, Senior Kajol. I'm not part of the project," Leyvi shook his head.

He then told her about the Mystic Realm, how Spiritual Cultivation was already well-established and popularized in the Protogaea Continent, and his close relationship with Barbara.

"You're going to propose to that Barbara? The Young Lady of the Buchanan Family?" Kajol found it almost unbelievable.

You already have this many wives, and you even managed to get this old powerhouse Rina, but you still want more? Just how lecherous are you? Are you a sex fiend?

She knew Bardan Buchanan personally. Among academics and scholars, he was quite an influential figure with many achievements to his name. Based on his personality, he definitely would not allow some random man he did not know to marry his daughter.

He had always been very open about this, saying that only greatly talented young men who earned his personal approval would be allowed to pursue his daughter. Because of this stance, not many young men dared to make a move on her.

Now, a seemingly random man had appeared, trying to snatch his precious daughter. Wouldn't this turn into quite the drama?

"That's right, Senior Kajol. It's her," Leyvi replied with a confident smile. "I like her, and she likes me too. That's enough reason for us to get married."

Kajol was dumbfounded. Aren't you simplifying this way too much? She couldn't help but think that Leyvi was even more arrogant than some of the students here. Bardan was not a nobody. He was someone with high standing and a lot of powerful connections. Even without those connections, the Buchanan Family itself was a giant in this region.

"This isn't just about liking each other," Kajol said. "Her father is well known for wanting only great talents to be paired with her."

"What? You think my husband is not qualified, Kajol?" Caterina immediately jumped in to support him. "Didn't I tell you that he is the best man in the world? That young lady has great taste. I haven't met her yet, but I already like her. As for great talent, it's not a problem at all. I can vouch that he definitely has great talent."

Kajol rolled her eyes. Do you think her father will accept 'monster in bed' as a great talent? She had completely misunderstood what Caterina meant.

That said, she would definitely follow the Leyan Family along for the proposal. She needed some kind of entertainment once in a while.

...

After that, Kajol brought them to the newly built Spiritual Cultivation facilities.

She was actually quite curious to see how Leyvi would fare against the dedicated Spiritual Cultivators in the academy. In her opinion, even with his advantage in Qi Cultivation, Leyvi should not be able to handle them.

As for Leyvi, he was also quite excited to see other Spiritual Cultivators. These were mortals who had no spirit roots and only practiced Spiritual Cultivation, completely different from him, who cultivated multiple systems at once.

They could be referred to as Pure Spiritual Cultivators, just like those who only practiced Body Cultivation were called Pure Body Cultivators.

He wanted to see the bodies of Pure Spiritual Cultivators. After all, Spiritual Cultivation focused on training the mind. That meant their physical bodies would likely be their biggest weakness in battle. He was curious to see how they compensated for that.

When they arrived at the Spiritual Cultivation facilities, Kajol led them into a large training gym. Inside, Leyvi saw several dozen people with various weights floating up and down around them.

Without a doubt, they were training their Spiritual Touch ability.

However, all of them were wearing something Leyvi was not familiar with. Goggle-like devices that covered their eyes, with glowing visors. He wondered what purpose those devices served.

"Oh, Professor Kajol! Are you here to train with us again?" A woman noticed them and came over with several weights following obediently behind her. "We thought you were already done with Spiritual Cultivation."

The others in the gym also noticed Kajol's arrival. Some stopped what they were doing, while others simply paused for a moment before continuing their training.

"Hi Gwen. I'm not here to train this time," Kajol replied. "I already satisfied my curiosity back then. I'm just bringing some friends for a tour around the academy."

"Friends?" Gwen looked over at the Leyan Family. It was obvious they were not from around here. They even brought newborn babies with them, which was quite unusual for a place like this.

At that moment, Leyvi was very curious about the visored goggles they were wearing. He sent out a strand of his spiritual sense to examine one in greater detail.

But the moment his spiritual sense approached, it suddenly met with strong resistance.

"You! What are you doing?" Gwen took a few steps back, her voice carrying clear anger. "Aren't you being rude trying to probe me with your spiritual sense? You think we're easy to bully?"

All the Spiritual Cultivators in the gym immediately started paying attention. Several of them approached Gwen and stood protectively behind her.

Kajol looked embarrassed. She had completely forgotten to warn them not to use their spiritual sense to probe around carelessly in this place.

Leyvi was surprised. Was she talking to him? He wondered as he pointed at himself. "Me?"

"Yes, you! Who else?" Gwen confirmed, still sounding annoyed. "You extended your spiritual sense toward me just now! You don't want to admit it?"

"Wait a minute. Miss Gwen, how did you detect my spiritual sense?" Leyvi asked, genuinely curious. He did not really care about accidentally offending her.

"You don't know?" Gwen turned to Kajol and saw her embarrassed expression. She realized that Kajol had forgotten to explain it to them. Her anger dissipated almost immediately.

"I see. Then it's fine," she said. "Just don't do it again. It's considered quite rude here. Pardon me for being too defensive."

"Sister Kajol, what's going on here?" Anda asked.

"Heheh. I actually forgot to tell you," Kajol explained with a slightly awkward smile. "They are much more sensitive to spiritual sense, so they can easily tell when someone else's spiritual sense approaches them. Also, those goggle-like devices they are wearing allow them to see other people's spiritual sense, which is otherwise invisible to normal sight."

"I see. That's why it's rude to them," Anda nodded in understanding.

Normally, people would not realize when others were using spiritual sense to probe them. But Spiritual Cultivators, who could actively detect it, found the feeling extremely uncomfortable.

Leyvi was shocked. He was not particularly surprised by the device that allowed them to see spiritual sense. After all, Ava could do something similar with her Quantum Eyes, which meant it could be imitated somehow.

What truly shocked him was the fact that they could detect other people's spiritual sense. Because he actually could not do it, and it had never been mentioned in the manual he possessed.

Could it be an advantage that only Pure Spiritual Cultivators have? he wondered. Can I not learn it too?
