After giving a little introduction about what he was going to teach in the training camp, Theo split the people into ten groups.
"You will be divided into ten groups. It's hard for me to personally teach you something, so I want these groups to help you understand my lesson.
"The list should have been sent to your Skylink, so you should check it right now. But before you are leaving to your designated venues, I will give you three tasks to do while waiting for me in your respective venue.
"First, you should try to share about your power. Of course, this is a secret that only you are supposed to know. After all, you will be at a disadvantage if your ability is exposed. That's why I won't force you to share your secret.
"You only have to share the normal things like when you share it with a new teammate.
"Then, the second task is to question the things you have shared. If you are in a group, after sharing your secret, the others should start questioning you. The questions are related to your abilities, but you have the right to not answer that question or just answer it in your head. If possible, instead of digging up one's secret, you should question the essence of the other's party's ability and try to give your opinion.
"As for the last task, it's simple. You should figure out whether you are going to consider others' opinions or not. This is your ability, so you should be the one to decide what you're gonna do with their opinions.
"That's all. Do you have any questions?" Theo asked.
One of Mythical Rank Experts raised his hand and said out loud, "I am Bill from Heffex Group. I'm still confused about the three tasks. It feels like you are trying to question our abilities as if you want us to change. But in the end, you want us to decide whether we want to change or not. Are you implying that our ability is wrong?"
"No." Theo shook his head. "I already told you to always question yourself, right? I don't know you. If I ask you to tell me everything about your power, will you do it?"
The Mythical Rank Expert looked down, contemplating for a moment. "If you are the one who asks me, then I'm going to share my ability to the very details. Even without that information, you have the strength to overpower me after all."
"Yes. Then, if I tell you that your ability is wrong, will you change it according to my explanation?" Theo asked another question.
The Mythical Rank Expert nodded without hesitation. "Yes. I haven't reached your level, so I know that your understanding of this mysterious power is more than mine. So, if you think it's wrong, then I believe that's wrong. I want to correct my mistakes so that I can reach the next level."
Theo smiled. "Then, what will you do if I lie about the mistake? And by changing according to my explanation, you will end up ruining your foundation."
"That's…" The Mythical Rank Expert couldn't reply. On the one hand, Theo had a reputation to keep. On the other hand, Theo had the ability to do it. "I don't think you will be lying in this scenario."
"But that's possible, right?" Theo smirked.
"…" He fell silent for a while before nodding his head.
"That's what I'm talking about. No one here understands you more than yourself. That's why I want all of you to question yourself whether the abilities you have been cultivating this whole time are correct or not.
"I want everyone to give their opinion so that you have more information and perspective. At the end of the day, you are the one who should answer whether your ability is right or not."
"But why are you trying to make us question our abilities? I mean, there are clear limits to overcome. Shouldn't we overcome our limits first before clearing other hurdles?"
Theo shook his head and waved his hand, forming two small mountains in front of them. "There are three mountains in front of you. There is a mysterious power in one of them. Which one will you choose?"
"Three?" The guy was confused, trying to find the third one. There were only two mountains even if he tried to look from every direction, so he didn't know what Theo meant by the third one.
Despite his confusion, Theo didn't make things clear as if he had told him everything correctly.
He said, "Then, I'm going to climb the left one!"
"Congratulations, you have climbed the peak. Unfortunately, this peak doesn't contain the power." Theo shook his head, disappointed with the result.
"Then, I should be climbing the right one." The guy corrected himself.
"Congratulations, you have climbed the peak. Unfortunately, this peak doesn't contain the power." Theo repeated his reply, confusing him.
"Huh? Is it the third mountain? But there are only two."
Theo looked lying at this point, but before he replied, Theo snapped his finger. The second mountain suddenly broke apart, revealing a smaller mountain. "This is the third mountain and it contains the power."
"How do I even know there is a mountain inside there?"
"That's what I'm talking about. You don't know where the correct path is. When you climbed the left mountain, you immediately believed that it was the correct path, not realizing it was actually a mistake.
"When you climbed the right mountain, you thought it was right as well. It might be right, but because of your doubt, you immediately trusted my reply, thinking it was a mistake.
"As it turned out, the right answer was within the right mountain. But you don't know where the third mountain is, right? That's why you are here. You are trying to find the right mountain to climb, but you don't know which one is the correct mountain.
"It might be the one you're currently climbing, it might be the one next to it, or it might be the third mountain whose whereabouts are still unknown. What I want you to do is find the correct mountain to climb by questioning yourself. No one other than yourself knows the answer. So, I want you to think about it carefully."
