“Teacher.”
Joelson greeted Harriet Terrence respectfully.
Harriet Terrence revealed a gratified smile.
This disciple of Harriet’s really made him feel very satisfied. Other than being smart and outstanding, he could always hint at some wonderful ideas that even he couldn’t help but marvel at.
Moreover, even as the number one genius, he was still very diligent and hardworking.
He saw a calmness in Joelson that ordinary youths did not have.
“I noticed that you’ve been reading some books about knight cultivation recently?”
Harriet Terrence could not help but ask.
Joelson thought for a moment, nodded and said, “Yes, teacher. Because I thought that I might encounter such an opponent in future experiences and battles, I read some books about knight cultivation to increase my understanding.”
“Well, very good, very good.”
Harriet Terrence showed a look of approval.
In fact, Joelson was just preparing to take the “Dragon Blood Potion”.
Judging from the time, Lucca’s caravan should be returning from the Elf Forest soon.
With the “Green truffle”, he could try to make the dragon blood potion.
At that time, his overall strength would have another significant increase.
“Oh, right.”
Harriet Terrence seemed to have thought of something and said, “There will be a dinner party at the Royal Palace tomorrow night. It’s about your medal ceremony.”
Hearing what Harriet Terrence said.
Joelson was instantly stunned.
“What’s Wrong?”
A member of Harriet Terrence, Joelson, was surprised by the good news, he smiled and said, “It’s just early. After graduating from Tulip Academy, every mage is qualified. But it’s the Emperor himself who awarded the medal. It seems that the royal family has plans to rope you in.”
“Then what rank will I be awarded?”
Harriet Terrence shook his head and said, “I’m not sure about that. At least above Viscount.”
Joelson’s expression suddenly became very strange.
He thought of what Shannon said.
…
Harriet Terrence was an earth magician.
He only taught Joelson theoretical knowledge of magic. The specific fire magic still needed to be comprehended by Joelson himself.
However, there was a benefit to this.
Joelson got all the spell-casting spells of fire magic from Level-1 to Level-9 in one go.
“In fact, it’s good that you know some of the training methods of knights. In theory, mages who have been nourished by magic elements all year round are more suitable to train as knights than ordinary people. Having a strong body can also make meditation more effective.”
The last sentence was often mentioned by Harriet Terrence.
“Teacher, has anyone in this world tried to cultivate both magic and knights at the same time?”
Joelson asked the question that had been hidden in his heart all this time.
How many people dreamed of cultivating magic and knights at the same time.
“Edward.”
Harriet Terrence’s expression became serious as he said seriously.
“Don’t try this dangerous idea. Whether it’s magic or the path of knights, it’s enough for us to spend our whole lives to study and struggle. We can’t reach the peak even if we spend our whole lives.”
“Your talent is very good, but you can’t use it to squander or waste it. If you get distracted, perhaps you’ll become mediocre on both paths.”
Harriet sighed and looked into the distance.
“During my time on the continent, I’ve seen many geniuses with outstanding talent, even surpassing you. Each of them was very confident, fantasizing about cultivating two paths at the same time, but in the end, they were all disappointed.”
“I really don’t want you to become like them.”
Joelson nodded seriously and said solemnly, “Your disciple will remember teacher’s teachings.”
However, he couldn’t help but think, “If I can concoct the dragon blood potion, even if I don’t put my energy into the path of knights, the level of knights will rise like a rocket.”
“Speaking of which, it’s almost time for the annual Academy Exchange.”
“Academy Exchange?”
Joelson’s expression changed slightly.
Harriet Terrence explained, “The Arhang Empire, which is adjacent to the Alcott Empire, will send out their most outstanding geniuses to compete with our students every year. This has already become a tradition.”
“What’s the result of the Annual Exchange?”
Harriet Terrence coughed lightly and said vaguely, “There will be winners and losers.”
Joelson looked at Harriet Terrence. Harriet Terrence was embarrassed by Joelson’s clear gaze and said helplessly, “Well, we have already lost three times to the knights. It’s true that mages will suffer a lot if they meet the knights in the early stages.”
“So!”
Harriet patted Joelson’s shoulder heavily and said hopefully, “This year, you must not let me down! The glory of the Tulip Academy is with you.”
Joelson didn’t know what to say. He could only nod helplessly.
“Oh, right.”
Just as Joelson was about to leave, Harriet called out to him.
“There will be a carriage from the royal family coming to the academy tomorrow night to pick us up. Remember to change into a set of beautiful clothes.”
Harriet Terrence’s wrinkled face revealed a smile, causing more wrinkles to appear on his face.
He smiled and said, “I can foresee that you will definitely be very popular at the banquet. You might even be able to capture the heart of the Princess of the Empire.”
Joelson smiled helplessly.
If anyone knew that Harriet was such an interesting old man, who knew how surprised they would be if they knew that Harriet was the pillar of the great saint-level Mage Empire.
…
In the Dragon God’s Arena.
“Will the rancher allow the dragon race to have the fifteenth duel?”
“Yes.”
“Summoning ancient dragon soul.”
It was still the 5th rank steel dragon.
Du Lu was already familiar with this opponent, and his battle intent soared. Before the steel dragon could fully drill out of the dragon flag, he had already pounced forward.
Continuous dragon roars resounded throughout the entire arena.
One Red, one gray, two huge figures intertwined together.
And this time, the red figure steadily held the advantage.
Du Lu was exceptionally fierce.
It seemed that even it could feel it.
All the humiliation and pain it had received before would be repaid today!
[Dragon Shield Protection (LV4): physical damage reduction 35%, magic damage reduction 35%.]
[Fire Dragon: Du Lu, Combat Power: 2,100.]
It was an intense battle!
Du Lu fought the steel dragon without any regard for his own life.
He relied on the damage reduction effect of his protective dragon shield to fight the steel dragon.
Du Lu was very smart. After more than ten battles, he had learned how to combine the strong physique of the dragon race with his magic power.
It posed a big threat to the steel dragon.
The battle lasted for three hours.
