The group decided not to continue discussing the matter of the Soul Crystal. After all, at this moment, the mages, regardless of their age, were fundamentally quite simple-minded. Xu Lie had received the Meditation Method for free and had already stayed in the Shi Golem production building for several days. They still cared about their reputation; continuing to discuss this topic would inevitably lead to feelings of shame for not giving Xu Lie face.
So they swiftly changed the subject, no longer entangled in discussions about the Evil Mage's soul. Instead, they turned their attention to Xu Lie's recent display of magic, particularly his brilliant Radiant Sun spell. "Mr. Xu Lie, was that magic you just cast a result of your experience in the Truth Gate? You seemed to shift between different levels of magic."
As soon as these words were spoken, the other mages looked over with curiosity. They were particularly intrigued. All of them practiced Idealism Magic, where one simply took out a tool and shouted to summon whatever was needed. It was the first time they had heard of magic being categorized by levels.
Under Xu Lie's series of persuasive remarks, the mages had come to believe wholeheartedly in the Truth Gate. They held great interest in anything that emerged from it. Xu Lie knew well that the magic he used was inherent to the Legendary Mage he had purchased from the company, but if he was going to deceive them, he would do so thoroughly.
"Indeed," he continued, "when we cast spells, the consumption of magical power and the potency of our magic seem to be closely related to our will. However, this is a one-sided view." He explained that the Truth Gate recorded two distinct magical systems in the world: one was chaotic and idealistic, like what they currently practiced; the other was what he had just demonstrated—the Feng Jie Ti system.
Inquilinar, experienced and contemplative, pondered this revelation while another mage interjected, "How can our magical system be described as chaotic?" Human nature being what it is, no one likes to hear their most cherished skills criticized as chaotic—even if that criticism comes from a respected sage.
Xu Lie smiled gently and raised his hand to calm the agitated mage. "When I refer to chaos, I do not mean it as a criticism. I mean there is no standard." He continued, "If we wish to unify and shape the world of Ben Huo into what I envision for Logistics Base, we must establish a set standard. Can we continue producing as we did before with Classical Idealistic Magic?"
Which product has great power and which has less? Coming from the modern world, Xu Lie cannot accept such disparities in logistics, so he wants to change the wizards' mindset as soon as possible. At the very least, he wants them to produce things that meet Xu Lie's standards.
This statement resonated deeply with the audience.
"You mean this Xu Lie has traveled back to the world of Ben Huo? I believe it; he's even managed to standardize everything!"
"Huh? I think Reiner, that enchanting Purple-Haired Elder, has a more fantastical approach to magic than Xu Lie. Reiner's Firepower Coverage seems more like something from another world."
"Hahaha, maybe the screenwriter just has obsessive-compulsive tendencies and loves standardization. Don’t overthink it; you don’t need to delve so deeply into a show."
Take Mr. Inquilinar, for example. Xu Lie's words caught the attention of this red-haired elder. Mr. Inquilinar has always advocated that as long as one firmly believes in their magic, miracles will surely follow. The more one believes in magic, the greater its power becomes.
Mr. Inquilinar's expression showed a hint of pride; indeed, this was precisely what he had been teaching Beck, reminding him from time to time.
