Chapter 276: Chapter 61: The Call from Afar_1

Time flew by.

In the blink of an eye, a term had passed.

Ever since Jasmine had moved to Link’s villa, she had made rapid progress in areas such as knowledge learning, meditation practice, witchcraft mastery, research leadership, and team management.

In terms of academic performance, she ranked second in the midterm and final exams of the second-year autumn term, second only to Lanny Taylor.

In terms of meditation practice, she was close to the limit of a second-rank wizard apprentice.

With just a little more time, she could trigger a small metamorphosis in the Sea of Consciousness.

Becoming a third-class wizard apprentice was imminent.

It must be said that Serene Wizard’s experiment on improving wizard qualifications had significantly effective results.

Especially after resolving the issue of the soul’s disharmony with the body, Serene Wizard had met with Jasmine several times for targeted adjustments and enhancements.

With the meticulous care of a senior pharmacist who is on the verge of becoming a Master Potion maker upon becoming a sage, Jasmine not only didn’t pay a hefty price for daring to try initially but also reaped many benefits.

If Jasmine’s qualifications were to be measured now, even if it did not reach the advanced fourth rank, she would definitely be among the top performers in the intermediate fourth rank.

This was similar to Link’s initial qualification.

Fortune or misfortune?

Who could tell?

All that could be said was that heaven helps those who help themselves.

In terms of witchcraft, the “Do Whatever You Want” team would hold a field exercise once a week.

As time went on, the Brotherhood Group, with the advantage of their lower fifth rank’s aptitude, greatly increased their strength and gave Jasmine a lot of trouble.

From nearly always winning, to winning more than losing, and then to equal strength, it took only half a term.

The Social Phobia Group, whose members were good at qualification, study, and practice, had become much more cheerful after being permeated with a harmonious internal atmosphere.

During the field exercises, they also started to play offensively, becoming increasingly aggressive and no longer being defensive and counterattacking.

Everyone polished each other and made progress together, possessing combat power that outstripped most of their peers at the wizard apprentice stage.

Um… that is, only using witchcraft and not relying on rune objects and magic tools.

Taking into account Rune Objects and Magic Tools, it would be another evaluation system.

However, “Do Whatever You Want” firmly remembered the dazzling scene of their boss’s solo breakthrough, suppressing dozens of people.

Everyone was extraordinarily passionate about practicing witchcraft.

In terms of research and development, Jasmine independently took the lead in a project of the Instant Magic Restoration Potion and achieved success.

The “paper” was published, and the “patent” was licensed to Serene Wizard’s pharmacy, and the product was selling well.

The local apprentices from the East District and the grassroots from the West District, who could not afford expensive instant magic restoration potions, switched to using Jasmine’s instant magic restoration potion, and everyone praised it.

Great value for money, with almost no negative side effects!

The rare conscientious potion, deserved all the praises.

In terms of team management, after observation and assessment, “Do Whatever You Want” recruited six new first-year Newblood.

The team had grown once again.

Moreover, these six new members all made it into the top ten in the combined ranking of the two exams in the first grade!

“Do Whatever You Want” is likely to have all members participate in the big competition between the two districts tomorrow.

This was unique among the seven or eight apprentice organizations in the Southern District.

As for Link, his progress was huge.

With his extraordinary talent, hard work, and the slight help from his “golden finger”,

he finished reading all the books in the Senior Division’s library and all the materials that could be found in the Advanced Literature Library in one term.

As for “Academic Points”, he almost exchanged them all for First Ring witchcraft.

The institute is bloody greedy.

The price of First Ring witchcraft is ridiculously expensive!

Both in terms of magic stone purchases and “Academic Points” exchanges.

Taking into consideration that magic stones needed to be saved up for purchasing materials on the eve of the practicum, Link had no choice but to reluctantly use “Academic Points” to exchange for First Ring witchcraft.

In terms of cost-effectiveness, it wasn’t quite worth it.

But he had no choice, even if it wasn’t worth it, he had to grit his teeth and exchange.

It was only because “Do Whatever You Want” was helping Link to earn magic stones and “Academic Points”.

Otherwise, how many First Ring witchcraft could Link, who hadn’t done much research and development this semester, afford?

Thus, revolving around his Destiny Witchcraft “Armor Orchid Battle Armor”, Link carefully matched each of three First Ring witchcraft from the Water System and Wood System.

He didn’t explore too much.

Not that he didn’t want to, but he couldn’t.

The reason was one word,

Poor!

Therefore, to support the expenses of Linkas an official wizard, relying solely on “Do Whatever You Want” wasn’t enough.

They could only develop potions targeting wizard apprentices, that was the limitation.

Even the several potions that Link had personally led the research and development on before could only function on first and second-level wizards after being sublimated by Serene Wizard.

If the previous Link had researched and developed them independently, they would only target wizard apprentices, without exception.

This term Link, he had the ability, but not the time.

This was a matter of choice.

A problem of balancing energy and time allocation.

Leaning towards studying knowledge, rather than earning “Academic Points” and Magic Stones, was a decision made by Link after careful thought.

You can specialize in First Ring witchcraft rather than have a lot, it can also be supplemented later, but knowledge cannot be lacking in the slightest.

Luckily, the difficult time had passed.

The light of day was about to emerge.

Starting from this holiday, he should have nearly half a year’s time to primarily focus his energy and time on research and development.

To earn more magic stones and “Academic Points.”

That was what Link thought, and also what he did.

Time slipped away once more.

In the blink of an eye, the holiday was over, and the spring term was about to start.

Regrettably, Link did not do very well, despite having the entire holiday time, he only produced one research outcome.
