That night.
After dinner, Li Wei was alone in his room.
The Shadow Attendant was still digesting the Nightmare Core.
Li Wei glanced at the Dragon Blood Tree outside his window.
He moved a pile of scrapped puppets aside so he could see the Dragon Blood Tree clearly from his window.
This made him feel much more at ease.
He glanced over and saw that the Little Bone Dragon lying beneath the Dragon Blood Tree was still.
With that, Li Wei lay on his bed and entered the Dream World.
「Dream World」
Li Wei cultivated the Fire Dragon Skill and refined the Fireball Skill.
Combined with what he’d learned in the library, Li Wei now had a clear vision for his future developnt.
His short-term goal was to find a way to create higher-energy Fire Elents.
His long-term goal was to find a way to trigger an Elental Fission chain reaction.
The Fire Elental Body could directly raise the energy level of the Fire Elent by two tiers.
Li Wei would try to comprehend how to further increase the Fire Elent’s energy level from this.
Furthermore, he wanted to go one step further.
He wanted to abandon Magic Models and cast spells by resonating directly with the Fire Elent.
He could already do this.
Instantly casting Tier One Fire Elent Magic was a form of direct elental resonance.
There was no process of constructing a Magic Model.
Li Wei wanted to improve this ability even further.
Currently, he could do it by relying on his Extraordinary Traits.
In the future, once he mastered this ability, he wouldn’t need to rely on his Extraordinary Traits; he could do it on his own.
Casting would beco an instinct for him.
Just like the Talent Magic of Magic Beasts.
Magic Beasts don’t construct Magic Models; they cast all their spells through elental resonance.
It’s completely dependent on talent.
「A night passed.」
[Fire Dragon Skill (Tier Four Mastery)] 69/2000
Even a spell as powerful as the Tier Four Fire Dragon Skill, Li Wei could cast and release within just a few seconds.
Li Wei recalled the first ti he had seen a Tier Four Spell.
When Allen cast the Tier Four Spell, Sandstorm Tornado, he had to prepare for several minutes before completing the casting.
Back when Li Wei fought Tyr.
Tyr had never used a Tier Four Spell.
Even soone as powerful as Tyr needed a significant amount of ti to cast a Tier Four Spell.
In the heat of battle, there was no opportunity to cast it.
The only ti Li Wei saw Tyr cast the Tier Four Spell, Celestial Soaring Dragon Spin, was when Tyr had prepared it in advance.
The vast majority of Tier Four Mages could not possibly release a Tier Four Spell in a matter of seconds.
Li Wei’s incredible casting speed ca from two sources.
First, his Fire Elental Body greatly increased his affinity for the Fire Elent.
Second was the superior Control Power granted by his High Level Mana Control.
His Mana Power Control was comparable to a Tier Five Mage.
The combination of these two powerful factors created such a monstrous Casting Ability.
Li Wei had just finished his al when his Magic Badge vibrated.
He received a ssage: the Elental Tower was summoning all students to assemble in the Elental Tower’s Golden Hall.
Li Wei said, "ntor, the Elental Tower is summoning all students to the Golden Hall. I have to go."
Valen wasn’t surprised. He seed to have known already.
He wiped his mouth and said, "They’re calling you over this ti to deal with the rioting Undead. You’ll probably be assigned combat missions."
Hearing this, Li Wei nodded. "Yes, I understand."
When he arrived at the Elental Tower’s Golden Hall, over a thousand students had already gathered.
The seven Magic Classes—Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Cyan, Blue, and Purple—were further divided into first, second, and third years based on the students’ Mage Levels.
There were twenty-one Magic Classes in total.
Everyone stood in formation according to their assigned Magic Class.
The third-years stood at the very front, and the first-years at the very back.
Seven distinctly colored lines of students ford in the Golden Hall.
Li Wei walked to the spot for the second-year Red Level Class.
He had not yet passed the year-end exam, so he was still in his second year.
When the others saw him arrive, they all made way, giving Li Wei the spot at the front.
Although they had only seen Li Wei a few tis, everyone knew he was a powerhouse.
Recently, there were even rumors that Li Wei had already beco a Tier Three Mage.
Li Wei stood at the front of the line, just behind the third-year Red Level Class.
Balaha, standing behind Li Wei, whispered, "People are saying you broke through to Tier Three. Is it true?"
He was extrely curious.
Hearing his question, the people around them also pricked up their ears.
"Mm."
Everyone gasped.
They were utterly shocked.
’How long has Li Wei been at the Elental Tower? And he’s already a Tier Three Mage?’
This made many of the students who had been in their second year for several years feel deeply ashad.
Soon, several Elders of the Elental Tower appeared in the Golden Hall.
Six stars were engraved on the chest of each Elder.
Tier Six Mages!
The Grand Elder, dressed in a white-gold Mage Robe, looked at the crowd and began to speak.
His voice wasn’t loud, yet it carried clearly to everyone’s ears.
"The Undead in the Ancient Battlefield are stirring. Millions of Undead are marching toward the Elental Tower."
"We cannot sit here and wait for death. We must take the initiative and strike first."
...
The Grand Elder explained the reason for the summons, boosted morale, and assigned tasks.
The combat missions would be carried out by Magic Class units.
The twenty-one Magic Classes were assigned to different regions.
Each Magic Class was responsible for clearing the Undead in their assigned region to reduce their numbers as much as possible before the final battle.
During the mission, the Elental Tower will operate its super Teleportation Array at full power to allow for point-to-point teleportation.
The Elental Tower issued a Teleportation Token to each person.
The Teleportation Token could be used once per day.
The Elental Tower would use the Teleportation Array to send everyone to the battlefield.
If they encountered danger, they could use the Teleportation Token to return directly to the Elental Tower.
During the mission, the Elental Tower’s Credit Point exchange shop would be open without limits.
Many items normally unavailable for purchase—rare Magic Materials, precious Magic Potions for advancent, top-tier Magic Equipnt, and more—could all be bought with Credit Points.
Completing the tasks of killing Undead would earn a large number of Credit Points.
This was a feast for the strong.
Li Wei’s class was assigned to the Red Second Level region.
The most powerful enemies in this region were rely Tier Three Undead.
Even if a Tier Four Undead unexpectedly appeared, Sean could handle it.
The Elental Tower’s goal was to clear out the Undead, so naturally, they wouldn’t put everyone in grave danger.
While everyone else was excited to show off their skills and reap great rewards, Li Wei was only thinking, ’Is there any way I can avoid leaving the Elental Tower?’
He hadn’t forgotten that a Legendary Level Witch Lich was watching him from the outside.
’Going out now would be like a lamb to the slaughter, wouldn’t it?’
’Staying in the Elental Tower offers so degree of safety. If I go out, I’ll be exposed right under the Legendary Witch Lich’s nose.’
’It’s simply courting death.’
Li Wei found Sean and asked, "Teacher, is it possible to not participate in the battle?"
Sean said, "Probably not. Why don’t you go ask an Elder?"
Li Wei shook his head. "Never mind."
"I’ll figure sothing out myself."
Li Wei racked his brain, searching for a way to avoid leaving the Elental Tower.
Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration.
After leaving the Golden Hall, Li Wei hurried to the Hall of Truth to find Hobbes.
Li Wei asked, "Hobbes, is there any crucial magic in the Hall of Truth that needs to be developed?"
Hobbes gave him a strange look and asked, "Why are you asking about that?"
Li Wei said, "For so personal reasons, I can’t leave the Elental Tower right now."
"If I don’t have a good enough reason, I’ll probably have to go join the battle."
