Arrived in Emerald City.
After disembarking from the airship, we headed to the hotel where we were settled.
Ian, however, discovered that the green corridor had changed considerably from what it had been before.
There were more wizards patrolling the streets, and the wizards who came and went all had grim expressions.
Isaac turned around and said, "The Green Corridor and the Black Flame Wizarding Academy are currently at war over a resource-rich area. There's no need to be alarmed."
His tone was nonchalant, as if it were just a trivial matter.
"Lord Isaac, does this kind of thing happen often?"
"Ian asked."
"We have to fight several times a year, whether it's between academic factions or bandits," Isaac said.
Ian seemed to be deep in thought.
It seems that even powerful institutions at the academy level cannot avoid conflict.
This is the wizarding world today.
soon.
They arrived at an inn, and Isaac turned to them and said, "You'll be staying here for the time being. In a few days, the sect will have an airship to transport resources for the Elemental Mystic Arts. I'll arrange for you to board; the fare will be waived, but you might need to serve as guards!"
"Can."
Horton nodded.
Normal airships cost too many magic stones, so this is actually the best choice.
"And Ian, if you want to use the facilities at the academy, just use my identity."
Isaac smiled at Ian.
"Thank you, sir."
In the blink of an eye.
Half a month has passed.
For the past two weeks, Ian has basically been holed up in the elemental simulation room in the Green Corridor.
This place is the most suitable for learning elemental magic, so he chose the Hand of Fire from the Blackrock Legacy.
It must be said that this is the most aggressive witchcraft Ian has ever learned so far.
For half a month, Ian worked almost non-stop.
This elevates it to the level of an expert.
It can already be used for combat.
However, just when Ian thought he was about to leave, an unexpected event interrupted the process.
"I'm sorry, Horton, you may have to stay at the academy for a while. Black Flame has blocked the academy's entrances and exits, and it may take two or three months for us to reopen them," Isaac said apologetically.
"Then let's stay a little longer."
Horton didn't care.
Ian was naturally in no hurry, since the academy assessment still had a year to go.
"At the same time, I may have to leave the academy soon, and the elemental simulation room is also restricted. If you still want to go, you will have to spend magic stones, but you can still use my identity." Isaac said to Ian apologetically.
"It's alright, thank you very much, sir."
Ian shook his head.
The zero-ring element simulation room in the Green Corridor costs 100 magic stones per day.
Moreover, he also needed to be a Green Corridor Wizard.
He's only allowed to use it because of Isaac.
He obtained four hundred mid-grade magic stones from the last ruin, so he's not really lacking in them now.
"At most three months, don't worry."
Isaac assured him.
The two nodded; three months was indeed not a long time.
In the blink of an eye.
Six months later.
Inside the testing grounds, Ian opened the panel.
Name: Ian Green
Age: 18
[Strength: Peak Wizard Apprentice (14/20 scale), Unbreakable Rune]
[Talent: First-class star (1500/2000)]
[Skills: Zero Ring Upper Level: Four Elements Resonance Meditation (Resonance Chapter - Expert 150/400), Branding Body Tempering Technique Level 3 (Master Level), Eye of Harmony (Mastery 100/300), Hand of Fire (Master Level), Eye of Fire (Master Level), Clothing of Fire (Master Level), Natural Perception (Master Level), Tree Skin Technique (Master Level), Shockwave Palm (Expert 300/400)]
Secret Techniques: Spirit Resonance Technique (Master Level), Mirror Heart (Master Level)
"It's been half a year already!"
Ian looked at the panel and the surrounding experimental field environment, and was filled with emotion.
Who would have thought that, despite being told they would be staying for three months, the Green Corridor and Black Flame factions would fight so fiercely that they ended up staying in Emerald City for a full six months.
It can only be said that plans can never keep up with changes.
Of course, this is not entirely a bad thing for him.
With Isaac's access, Ian can use many of the academy's facilities.
Although it cost 15,000 magic stones in just six months.
But it was worth it.
He mastered both Horton's legacy and Blackstone's legacy to the master level.
I also practiced Shockwave Palm while I was at it.
This is one of the body-refining sorceries. The principle is to use indestructible runes and earth elements to generate a shockwave that produces an extremely strong shockwave attack on the enemy.
It's basically a physical attack, which makes up for some of Ian's weaknesses.
Similarly, their talent also improved dramatically as a result.
It increased by more than 300 points, reaching 1500 points.
It is only 500 away from 2000.
The only downside is that this upgrade to 1500 didn't bring any real change; we'll probably have to wait until we reach 2000 points to see any difference.
Even so, the changes it brought to Ian were still enormous.
The speed of meditation increased by almost 30%, and even the speed of learning witchcraft increased.
Even his mental strength reached level 14.
"The so-called scale is the mainstream description of mental power in the wizarding world. One scale is roughly equivalent to the mental power required to cast five zero-ring superior wizarding spells."
A top-tier wizard apprentice typically needs to reach at least level 12 to break through.
Ian pondered.
But this is only the minimum standard, because mental strength is never fixed.
Different talents and different meditation methods will bring about certain differences.
Even their limits are different.
He took out Blackstone's notebook and turned to one of the pages.
"Although I have first-class talent, my limit is only 15 marks, while those geniuses can even reach 20, 25, and even the Silver Moon Rank talent can reach the theoretical maximum of 30 marks for an apprentice."
After breaking through to the first level of wizardry, the gap will only widen. How am I supposed to compare myself to them? I hate it!
Ian's expression was complicated.
Advancement for wizards is not cumulative, but rather increases exponentially.
Therefore, the so-called limits are very important to wizards.
If possible, no one would choose to rush into a breakthrough, otherwise the gap will only widen.
This is also a difference in talent.
"So I still need to break through to the Silver Moon Rank talent!"
Ian remarked with a sigh.
The more you learn, the more you understand the importance of talent.
That's definitely not something that can be overcome through hard work alone.
Just then, Ian sensed a communication crystal in his spatial ring light up.
Take it out.
"We'll leave here at eight o'clock tomorrow."
Upon seeing the message, Ian's eyes lit up.
Is it finally time to leave?
Keep in mind that there are only six months left until the college's assessment.
He was genuinely worried that something unexpected might happen on the road.
If we delay for another five years, we really can't afford to lose that much.
the next day.
Airship area.
In front of a huge airship, Horton stood with another Green Corridor wizard.
Behind Horton stood the school's disciples, numbering only about fifty.
The six months had led many wizards to choose to stay in Emerald City, but Ian, who was familiar with most of the areas, hadn't left.
Behind another Green Corridor Wizard stood twenty apprentices.
They were all in high spirits and exuded strong spiritual energy; they were all top-level wizard apprentices. Ian also spotted an old acquaintance among them, Sam.
These are the disciples from the Green Corridor who went to participate in the Elemental Mysteries.
Ian glanced at them and saw that the mental strength of several of them was similar to or even exceeded his.
No wonder he's an apprentice at the academy.
He still doesn't have enough time to advance to the peak wizard apprentice level.
soon.
The group boarded the airship.
The airship, named Green Vine, was divided into a lower, middle, upper, and top section.
The entire Green Corridor was placed in the Upper City, while Ian's side, except for Horton who was in the top-floor area, was mostly placed in the middle and lower-floor areas.
"The upper floors are all single rooms, so we're in double rooms again," Chris said to Ian as she packed her things.
"After all, it's an airship from the Green Corridor, so it's understandable."
Ian didn't care much about the living environment.
It's at least better than before.
This time it wasn't with Li Wei, but with Chris.
It's also reasonable that it wasn't Willow; the two haven't reached that point yet.
"It's time to leave."
Standing by the window, Ian watched as Emerald City receded lower and further into the distance.
Looking out into the distance.
It was as if I could see the emerald forest in the distance, and the secret vault of the academy hidden within it!
Someday.
He will come back.
