September 1st. The first day of new student enrollment at the Central City Wuyi General Hospital.

In truth, most students who were admitted to the Central Hospital enrolled during this period. Although the Central Hospital didn’t have any specific restrictions on this, students like Chen Chuan who arrived half a semester early were still a minority.

But no one could have predicted that in just half a semester, he had already walked a path that would take an ordinary student three to four years, or even longer, to complete.

But this was only the beginning.

Chen Chuan remembered what He Xiaoxing had told him. The term "Limit" originated from the idea that within a certain stage, the human body could only reach a specific, defined ceiling.

And theoretically, only a truly perfect individual could reach this ceiling. While it seemed distant, he felt it wasn’t necessarily impossible for him to achieve.

The first Fusion with his Second Self had already compensated for many of his shortcomings, strengthening his foundation in every aspect. ’If I could do it one more time, I might be able to achieve true perfection, or even surpass it.’

According to what He Xiaoxing told him later, the First through Third Limits were actually a single, cohesive process. Some aspects that were difficult to improve during the First and Second Limits could be compensated for and further strengthened at this stage.

Therefore, his next goal was to improve himself in every way and attempt to touch that theoretical ceiling.

But this meant he would require several times the cultivation resources of a Fighter at the same level, as well as significantly more effort.

Although the road ahead was difficult, the mere thought of walking this path and becoming stronger filled his heart with intense anticipation and drive.

He used his Realm Token to open the Wuyi platform and glanced at the schedule for this semester.

After a student reached the Third Limit, their evaluation score was automatically raised to the maximum, and they no longer needed to participate in any form of assessment. All of the academy’s internal materials were also made fully available to him.

However, his primary concern was how to proceed with his future cultivation.

But when he searched, the platform informed him that all subsequent cultivation knowledge related to the Third Limit, as well as the purchase of related medicines and services, required the student to first submit an application. Only after approval from the academy’s upper management and signing an agreement would they receive specialized guidance.

Seeing this, Chen Chuan immediately filled out an application on his Realm Token and submitted it. A notification popped up, informing him that his application had been submitted and the academy would respond within three to five days.

Since that was the case, he wasn’t in a hurry. He took the opportunity to look up some other things, especially the skills that a Third Limit Fighter could master.

The academy didn’t have strict restrictions on this. It was impossible to forbid Fighters from communicating with each other, and there were plenty of people willing to teach this kind of knowledge, which didn’t require many external resources.

He first focused on techniques for using the Biological Domain. He felt it was incredibly useful, as it allowed one to perceive people and objects outside without using one’s senses, and to transmit and receive information without traditional methods of learning.

It was a very useful skill.

He browsed for a bit and found that most of the paid courses offered by teachers on the platform were aimed at students below the Third Limit. None of them explicitly stated they taught these specific techniques.

’I’ll have to ask one of the academy’s teachers first. They’re familiar with the internal situation, which is better than me searching around cluelessly.’

Just then, he suddenly remembered Teacher Bai, who had escorted the students to the arena that day. The teacher had told him back then that if he ever needed anything, he was welcome to attend his class, free of charge.

He had looked up this teacher’s profile. He was mainly responsible for some theoretical courses, so he should be able to give him some advice in this area.

Having made up his mind, he found Teacher Bai’s profile picture and tried contacting him.

Just two or three seconds later, the call connected. Teacher Bai spoke in a joking tone, "Chen, calling me on the first day of school? Are you planning to come to my class?"

Chen Chuan said, "I actually do have a few things I’d like to ask you about, Teacher."

Teacher Bai said with a smile, "Hm, I happen to be free right now. Chen, feel free to ask whatever you want."

As he was speaking, Fan Cheng and Kong Yao, the two people Chen Chuan had met in the elevator that day, were waiting outside a classroom.

To avoid being demoted to external students, they had to work hard to improve themselves.

For the past two days, they had been looking up information on academy teachers on the platform, but they were overwhelmed. It seemed like they needed to learn this, and they needed to learn that; nothing seemed unimportant.

Moreover, judging by the teachers’ descriptions, it seemed as if failing to take their courses would make it impossible to pass the assessments and raise their evaluation scores. The more they looked, the more anxious they became.

They realized they were completely unable to determine which teacher was right for them on their own. Choosing incorrectly and wasting money was a secondary concern—they could always drop the class—but wasting time and falling behind was the biggest issue.

Later, an upperclassman recommended this Teacher Bai to them. Although he only taught Fighter theory, he was very familiar with every teacher in the academy and could provide detailed guidance and planning based on a student’s strengths and characteristics.

This was an incredibly rare quality, like having someone point out the right path for you, so they had rushed over to find him.

However, they weren’t the only ones looking for this teacher at the start of the new semester. They had to wait for a long time and even purchased an additional course before it was finally their turn.

"Who is Teacher Bai talking to? Is it going to take this long?" Fan Cheng was getting a little agitated from the wait.

"Seeing the big smile on Teacher Bai’s face when he went into the room just now, it’s probably another teacher..." Kong Yao said, a bit uncertain. "Anyway, it’s our turn now. We just have to wait."

"Sigh..." Fan Cheng ran a hand through his hair, pulling out a few strands from time to time. Fortunately, a Fighter’s hair grew back fast, thick, and full, so he didn’t have to worry about any problems for the time being.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Chen Chuan stated his purpose into the Realm Token, "Teacher Bai, I’d like to learn techniques related to the Biological Domain. I was wondering if you could offer some guidance?"

Teacher Bai chuckled. "I can give you some suggestions on that, but I don’t think I’m qualified enough to teach you, Chen. However, I can recommend another teacher—Teacher Jiang Tian.

This teacher has made great achievements in this area. Although he’s not old, his theoretical foundation on the use of the Domain is comparable to mine, and his practical skills are more than sufficient. He’s also easy to talk to, and his teaching style isn’t boring. I believe he’d be a good fit for you, Chen."

"Teacher Jiang?"

"What, you know him, Chen?"

Chen Chuan said, "I passed my skills assessment with Teacher Jiang before."

Teacher Bai seemed to recall something and suddenly burst out laughing. "I heard Teacher Jiang was overconfident during a student’s assessment and almost messed up. So that student was you, Chen? That’s not surprising at all, then. But that’s perfect, saves me the trouble of an introduction. I’ll give Teacher Jiang a heads-up later."

Chen Chuan said, "Thank you, Teacher Bai."

Teacher Bai said, "Don’t mention it, Chen. Since you came to me, as your teacher, if you don’t mind me rambling, I’ll add a few more words."

Chen Chuan said, "Please, Teacher Bai."

Teacher Bai said, "As you know, I deal with Fighter theory, not practical combat. But theory allows you to clearly identify your enemies, understand yourself, know where you stand, and where you are headed."

He added with emphasis, "Never underestimate this. Once you are clear on this point, there will be no more confusion in your mind. A clear Heart Thought will then forge a firm and unyielding will, which will be extremely beneficial for your spiritual cultivation.

Even in actual combat, it can help you analyze and find your enemy’s weaknesses.

If you look at all the powerful Third Limit Fighters, none of them are unbalanced. They all have their own methods for understanding and analyzing themselves, and even their enemies."

Chen Chuan was lost in thought. He replied earnestly, "Thank you for the reminder, Teacher."

Teacher Bai smiled. He could tell from Chen Chuan’s tone that the student had truly taken his words to heart, which gave him a sense of accomplishment. He said, "Chen, if there’s anything you don’t understand in the future, feel free to come find me anytime. I look forward to our conversations."

After finishing the conversation, Teacher Bai walked out of the classroom. Fan Cheng and Kong Yao, who had been waiting there for a long time, immediately approached him.

He said with a slightly serious expression, "You two, thank you for waiting. I had some important business to attend to."

Fan Cheng quickly said, "Not at all, Teacher. Your business is what’s important. It’s no problem for us to wait."

"Alright, let’s begin now. You two, come in with me. I’ll take a look at your fundamentals first."

"Yes, yes." Fan Cheng and Kong Yao hurriedly followed him inside.

Inside his dorm on the forty-ninth floor, after ending the call with Teacher Bai, Chen Chuan tried contacting Teacher Jiang. The call connected after a moment, and a voice came from the other side, "Chen?"

Chen Chuan said, "Teacher Jiang, it’s me, Chen Chuan."

Teacher Jiang said with a laugh, "Teacher Bai just sent me a message. I happen to have time this morning. You can come straight over. Eighty-second floor, training room five."

Chen Chuan said, "I’m on my way."

He tidied up, took his Snow Monarch Blade, left his room, and took the elevator all the way up to the eighty-second floor. He followed the corridor and found training room five.

As he walked in, he saw Teacher Jiang dressed in loose-fitting training clothes, with long, artist-like hair. He was standing on the warm-toned floor, with a whole row of long windows behind him. The light pouring in from outside made the room very bright.

As Chen Chuan stepped inside, Teacher Jiang’s voice rang out, "Everyone possesses a Biological Domain. It can be considered a collection of a person’s life information. However, in ordinary people, it is weak and withdrawn, making it almost imperceptible to the outside world. For Fighters, due to the Mutated Organization within their bodies, the Domain is exceptionally overt and powerful, capable of influencing an entire area.

But simply releasing your Domain will only reveal your own information to others. While keeping it restrained is a good method for now, it is not the best approach when facing an enemy."
