Rosenberg spoke quite leisurely; if it weren’t for the previous image of devouring a student lingering in everyone’s mind, all would consider him a rather noble gentleman.
Seeing the student in the black robe stepping forward to stand before Rosenberg, Rosenberg slightly raised his palm, a faint blue light rippling around the black-robed student before he lowered his hand.
A voice full of satisfaction was revealed: "Very good, you may go down."
Li Qing knew this person, nad Jes, and acquainted with that malicious Anna.
Finally, it was his turn, standing in front of Rosenberg’s sowhat playful gaze.
Rosenberg: "Alright, human boy, let see what the race most driven by desire will let the devil do to you."
The race most driven by desire?
Li Qing couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow, saying nothing more.
That statent was indeed correct, but to be evaluated this way by this monstrous teacher, he couldn’t help feeling surprised.
It seems that humans are also a very powerful group in the magic world.
Very useful information; at least it’s not as depicted in so novels where humans are often quite humble.
But from the current situation, it seems that humans’ intense desires are known to these strange beings.
Watching Rosenberg’s hand ripple with azure light as it lightly brushed over his face, Li Qing only felt a chill fill his entire body, an icy coldness he couldn’t stop, making his hair stand on end.
It was like being an ant straightly observed by a human, examined inside and out under an optical microscope.
"Hmm, interesting..."
After pondering for a while, Rosenberg nodded with a hint of amazed smile, evidently finding Li Qing’s tornt of the devil intriguing.
After all the students had completed the monitoring, Rosenberg sowhat regretfully said, "Then, congratulations everyone for successfully passing the entrance exam. Next, I will teach you the true path of a mage at the Gray Magic Academy. I hope in the days to co, we will get along very happily..."
Rosenberg couldn’t help but laugh ’hehehe’; to Li Qing, it seed completely ill-intentioned.
"Today, we begin our first lesson, ditation!"
Rosenberg’s voice beca serious.
"For any mage who wishes to enhance their essential strength, their own ditation is the best way to improve, whether at the magic apprentice level or as those legendary mages who still ditate daily.
And when you have honed your basic ditation skill to the entry level, the light sphere will emit a glow filling your consciousness sea, marking the gradual mutation of your spirit, with the potential to cast magic."
Li Qing was engrossed in listening when a student beside him in a black robe raised his hand.
Rosenberg didn’t mind and cheerfully said, "Taras, do you have a question?"
Taras stood up, a sowhat immature voice echoed: "Tutor, in my hotown, as long as we gather spiritual power, we can cast magic. Why do we need to include the step of gathering magic power?"
"Because sotis you may encounter environnts devoid of magic or restricted magic, where you can’t mobilize energy. The magic power condensed within you will beco an important ans to use extraordinary power."
Li Qing suddenly understood, no wonder when he studied the Level 0 spell ’Mage’s Hand,’ he only used spiritual power to operate but invoked the magic node circulation, although the magic power within him participated in the cycle.
Hmm, Li Qing couldn’t help but be slightly shocked inside; compared to the air elental energy in the Gray Magic Academy, the elental energy in the real world is pitifully scarce.
The four-hour course flashed by, and as the class was about to end, Rosenberg said, "Magic relies more on self-study. There will be a concentrated Q&A every month, so classes like this one will be few and far between. If there’s a schedule notification, it will be shown on your badges."
So, only one class per month?
Li Qing ca to his senses and heard Rosenberg continue, "So, fellow students, cherish your peaceful days, but if you have any questions about magic, you can activate your badges to visit the tutors’ residences for inquiries. A well-intentioned reminder: do not knock on the door; just stand at the entrance."
When the words fell, the person had already disappeared.
The whole classroom fell into silence, the group of black-robed students looked at each other, all a bit at a loss for words.
But upon careful thought, it makes a lot of sense; magic relies more on one’s self-learning ability, with a monthly concentrated Q&A.
A quite excellent approach, only Li Qing heard a hint of regret in Rosenberg’s words, obviously hoping for daily classes so that students could be late and be eaten...
He’s simply a devil!
Upon returning to the safe house, Li Qing hadn’t even ward his seat when the badge on his wrist faintly lit up, and a stream of information swiftly flowed into his mind.
Li Qing raised an eyebrow; was this a ga progressing to a certain point where, after teaching the second class on why to gather magic power, everyone was left on their own, and the library was activated afterward.
The library...
Li Qing hesitated for a while, finally dismissing the idea of imdiately visiting it; having not yet learned the Level 0 spells listed in "Magic Theory," there’s no point in being overly ambitious searching for other things.
At least finish these basic magic books first before anything else.
As for interacting with classmates, Li Qing had no such intention; those guys are very guarded, obviously knowing what kind of existence the Gray Magic Academy is. He, as a complete newbie, would only put himself in a dangerous position if he actively asked questions.
In the weeks that followed, Li Qing was indeed slacking off like an office worker doing math problems, deriving formulas, and at night, only studied the Level 0 spell ’Mage’s Hand,’ a spell almost every mage must learn.
An entire month passed, attending the Gray Magic Academy three tis in between for the monthly Q&A class, while the rest of the ti was spent either in the safe house or in his rented place conducting research.
Fortunately, the ti in the Gray Magic Academy’s safe house stands still, so he had twice as much ti to study.
A month felt like more than three months to him.
On Saturday, Li Qing squatted at the entrance of Taigu Outer Street like a street loafer, tightening his cotton coat while watching the passing crowd.
Seriously, in this frigid weather, Li Qing greatly admired those young ladies who still wore relatively light clothing.
The saying that ham needs to be refrigerated indeed holds so truth.
The most prosperous street in Shu Capital was already adorned with splendid lanterns, filled with a festive atmosphere everywhere.
