Ji You waited and waited, but Mu Jianling, the mentor, never continued her sentence. Ji You looked up with eager eyes and asked, "Teacher, is that it?"

Mu Jianling: "Yep, that’s it."

Ji You said, "Usually in this kind of situation, there should be a ’but’ or a ’however’ following."

Mu Jianling glanced at her and said, "But you are still useless."

Ji You: "..."

Seeing Ji You’s constipated expression, Mu Jianling seemed to finally find some amusement, "Or, what do you want to hear?"

Ji You said very seriously, "I want to hear you say that I’m actually a hidden genius."

Mu Jianling burst into a smile upon hearing this and said, "That’s a tough one, and I’m an honest person—how can I possibly say that?"

Ji You: "..."

Having a conversation with the teacher will sooner or later give me a heart attack; it’s better to change the subject quickly. Ji You asked, "Teacher, why was I able to briefly interfere with the Little Robot earlier?"

Mu Jianling took this question seriously and explained, "The signals used by the existing robots can all be disturbed by our human spiritual power. Not just robots, humans and various animals and plants can actually be affected by spiritual power, provided that the spiritual power is strong enough. Your Spiritual Silk Cleaning Rate has reached 100%. In theory, you should be able to use your six Spiritual Silks at will, but you had no concept or knowledge of how to use them before."

Ji You’s eyes brightened, "Does this mean my previous method was correct?"

Mu Jianling replied, "You’ve touched the threshold, I guess."

Ji You laughed heartily, "In that case, I’m still kind of a genius, right? It hasn’t been long, and I’ve already got the hang of it."

Mu Jianling was speechless for a few seconds before saying, "Are you proud of yourself? If I had your 100% completion rate, I wouldn’t need anyone to teach me. I would have figured it out on my own long ago."

Ji You was quite open-minded about this, saying, "You’re a genius, and I’m a failure; we’re just different."

Mu Jianling: "...You are quite good at comforting yourself."

Ji You scratched her head and chuckled, "Make the best out of the worst... Make the best out of the worst..." After saying that, she asked another question, "Teacher, why was the duration I could interfere with the Little Robot so brief? Can I increase the interference time in the future?" The three successful interferences earlier were really too short; Ji You herself felt that it likely wouldn’t exceed 1 millisecond, perhaps only a fraction of it.

Mu Jianling explained, "That depends on the extent you can micro-control Spiritual Silk. You’re actually using spiritual power, which is a form of controlling Spiritual Silk. If you can fully control Spiritual Silk with 100% ease, you can increase the duration of interference with the Little Robot."

After hearing this, Ji You’s eyes lit up with hope. Suddenly she asked again, "Then—Teacher, for how long can you currently interfere with the Little Robot?"

Mu Jianling replied, "Hmm—not much, just about half an hour or so."

Ji You opened her mouth wide in surprise. Afterwards, she daringly asked another question, "Then—if I can achieve 100% micro-control over Spiritual Silk, what’s the longest duration I can interfere with the Little Robot?"

As soon as the words were out, Mu Jianling stared at her with a meaningful look, "Isn’t it good to be alive?"

Ji You: "..."

That hurt.

Ji You refused to believe it and urged, "Teacher, just say it. I can take it."

Mu Jianling sighed and said, "1 second. No more than that."

Ji You: "..."

Mu Jianling asked, "Are you okay? Do you need a friendly sponsorship of a quick heart-saving pill?"

After Ji You vigorously rubbed her face, she said, "I don’t believe it! Since I’m so hopeless, why did the teacher still bring me to the Combat Department for training? I don’t believe I’m that useless!"

Hmm—

Quite a quick response.

Mu Jianling didn’t answer but instead threw out a question, saying, "Do you know what your current situation is equivalent to?"

Ji You instinctively said, "Genius?"

"... " Mu Jianling held his forehead and said, "Your spiritual power has mutated. To put it nicely, this is a mutation; to put it unpleasantly, you are now actually equivalent to a cripple!"

Ji You’s pupils shrank, and she quickly covered her mouth.

Mu Jianling asked speechlessly, "What are you trying to do?"

"Don’t be scared. It’s just to prevent myself from suddenly vomiting blood." Ji You took a deep breath and waved her hand, "Teacher, it’s okay, I can still take it. Keep talking."

Mu Jianling asked, "Do you know how blind people see things?"

Ji You: "Hearing?"

Mu Jianling continued to ask, "Correct. Then do you know how a mute person speaks?"

Ji You: "Sign language?"

Mu Jianling showed an approving look and said, "Other people’s Spiritual Silk can grow, but yours can’t. So, you can consider yourself a Spiritual Silk cripple now."

Ji You: "..."

Being stabbed in the heart wasn’t a first or second time for Ji You, so she simply ignored it and asked somewhat anxiously, "So, are you saying that I should train my other abilities? But what abilities can make up for the lack of Spiritual Silk? Physical Strength? Or?"

Mu Jianling looked at her and said, "You didn’t break down in front of your teacher, I’m very disappointed."

Ji You: "...Sorry for letting you down, but I think you won’t have that opportunity in the future."

Finally, Mu Jianling revealed a rare smile and said, "Teacher will wait and see." Then, she continued, "Although your Spiritual Silk has no possibility of growth, you are 100% compatible with your own Spiritual Silk. As long as you learn to use them, you will have no obstacles in the future! Others need a long time to clean usable Spiritual Silk, and spend a lot of time and effort learning to use and control them... But you don’t need to. That’s your advantage!"

"Just like I said earlier, blind people who want to see will focus on strengthening their hearing. Your task from now on is to continuously, focus on strengthening this advantage! Train your Spiritual Silk into truly Heart and Mind Move, constantly develop their functions, and maximize their use!"

Ji You opened her mouth: "But no matter how I use Heart and Mind Move, I can only interfere with a Little Robot for 1 second, after which it will still dangle me and hit me. Ying~"

Mu Jianling frowned and scolded, "Idiot! 1 second, you think it’s too little? On a real battlefield, to those who really understand combat, 1 second is enough to change anything! Within that 1 second, you could cut off the robot’s energy supply. A robot without energy is at your mercy, isn’t it? You want to destroy its Core Chip, dismantle its arsenal, or directly take it apart, isn’t it all up to you?"

Ji You’s mouth gaped open: "You can... do that?"

Mu Jianling said, "Of course, but you still need to combine it with your other abilities. Therefore—little girl, go for it. Your teacher has high hopes for you."
