Chapter 1336: Chapter 529: "Suspension Period" (Part 4)
"According to real-time monitoring data, the peak emotional entropy reached 18.7 kilo-morms, exceeding the safety threshold by 24.7%.
Under such a massive impact, any defense system would exhibit brief instability."
Alister frowned:
"But I remember, the actual carrying limit of the dome should be 25 kilo-morms..."
"That’s the theoretical limit." Hillas replied calmly:
"In actual operation, we must consider factors such as equipment aging and energy coupling loss.
Maintaining a 20% safety redundancy is standard engineering practice."
This explanation was technically airtight, leaving Alister momentarily without a rebuttal.
"Besides that," Hillas continued:
"I initiated the B-7 emergency plan at the first moment of the incident.
The timely intervention of the Spiritual Damping Field effectively prevented the further spread of energy runaway."
His fingers slid across the report, pointing to a crucial time node:
"From anomaly detection to field activation, the entire response process took only 47 seconds.
This bought valuable buffer time for Ron’s subsequent handling."
Hillas’s presentation was logically clear and well-evidenced.
It sounded entirely like the heroic deeds of a responsible technician standing up during a crisis.
He not only acknowledged Ron’s ultimate ability to resolve the issue but also deftly blamed "technical limitations" and "unexpected situations."
More importantly, he portrayed himself as the key rescuer in the crisis.
"I must admit, Ron’s ’Soul Symphony’ showcased an awe-inspiring level of technical sophistication."
Hillas even did not forget to express respect for his "opponent":
"But as I worried in the pre-report, the risk threshold of this innovative method indeed exceeded the safety range of existing equipment.
I suggest that before developing more advanced defense systems, such high-risk experiments should adopt a more cautious phased progression strategy."
The underlying message of these words was very clear:
Although Ron’s method was effective, it was too dangerous for widespread promotion.
In comparison, the traditional standardized teaching method was more stable and reliable.
Vinard quietly listened to Hillas’s entire report.
"Your analysis is very professional, and the emergency response was indeed appropriate."
He nodded in approval to Hillas:
"But I want to hear Ron’s perspective on this incident."
Ron slowly stood up, his expression devoid of any tension or anxiety.
"Professor Wienard, I admit that this teaching experiment indeed presented risks beyond expectations."
His opening statement was unexpectedly frank:
"As the organizer of this teaching activity, I take full responsibility for this."
This direct acknowledgment of fault surprised everyone present.
Hillas was slightly taken aback, and many of his prepared rebuttal points found no target.
"But at the same time, I hope you all understand the deeper value of this ’accident.’"
Ron continued:
"Not only did the twelve apprentices successfully complete the historical experience, but they also achieved a true inner breakthrough under extreme pressure.
This growth is something that no standardized teaching can provide."
Ella nodded in agreement:
"Indeed, the children’s state is better than ever."
"However," tactical expert Gregory interjected coldly:
"If irreversible spiritual trauma occurs during the process, then the cost of such ’growth’ is too high."
His words made the atmosphere of the conference room even more tense.
"Education is not warfare, and success cannot be measured by ’losses within an acceptable range.’"
Gregory continued:
"What we need is a stable, reliable, and replicable talent cultivation system, not a gambling-style extreme challenge."
These words received approval from several conservative managers.
They nodded, expressing concerns about "adventurous teaching."
Vinard tapped the tabletop, signaling for silence.
"After careful consideration, I have made the following decision."
His voice echoed in the conference room:
"Ron’s teaching achievements are remarkable, and the technical value of the ’Soul Symphony’ cannot be denied.
But given the high-risk nature of his teaching method, a half-month of in-depth evaluation is required."
"During the evaluation period, Ron will suspend all high-risk teaching activities and switch to foundational theory courses and personal guidance."
"Due to the appropriate emergency handling, Hillas will receive commendation from the academy and serve as the team leader for the evaluation group."
This judgment made Hillas secretly pleased.
Although the goal of getting Ron "dismissed" was not fully achieved, at least Ron was effectively restrained for half a month.
Ron accepted this decision expressionlessly, as if he had anticipated it.
"I comply with the academy’s arrangement." He said lightly:
"Half a month later, I will prove my value with facts."
In half a month, it would also be the time for his first quarter-ending comprehensive evaluation.
Vinard deliberately chose such a time node.
The meeting thus concluded, and Ron was clear about what he would do next.
"The trial of the Hanged Man..."
He recalled the prophecy in the divination:
"Perhaps this ’suspension period’ is precisely my opportunity to gain deeper wisdom."
