n“And this.”
n
n
nHarriet Terrence ground out another silver-white ring, his expression a little reluctant.
n
n
n
n
n“A magic ring with a cubic space. This is much more precious than the magic staff in your hand. It’s worth at least 100,000 magic crystal coins.”
n
n
nJoelson frowned and asked, “Teacher, what is a magic crystal coin?”
n
n
nHarriet Terrence explained, “It is a currency in circulation in the mage world. Its value is a hundred times more than gold coins. You will come into contact with it in the future.”
n
n
nA hundred times more.
n
n
n
n
nThere was a hint of shock in Joelson’s eyes.
n
n
nThat said, a small interspatial ring was worth more than ten million gold coins.
n
n
nIt was too valuable, too precious!
n
n
nHowever.
n
n
n
n
nA cubic space was too small.
n
n
nThinking about how he owned a Dragon God Ranch that was as big as a floating island, Joelson didn’t know what to say.
n
n
nBut he still had to put on an expression of “Excitement and surprise”.
n
n
n“Thank you, teacher.”
n
n
nHarrit Terrence nodded with gratification and said, “The interspatial ring also has the symbol of your new identity.”
n
n
nThe symbol of the new identity Harriet was talking about was a badge, similar to a student badge, but made of purple gold.
n
n
n
n
nIn the Tulip Academy of Magic, the student badge was silver, and the instructor badge was gold.
n
n
nPurple badges were only qualified to be worn by the Dean and the Dean’s personal disciples.
n
n
n…
n
n
nWith a calm expression, Joelson walked out of the ancient castle.
n
n
nBrewster was still waiting on the spot.
n
n
nHowever, he noticed that the student badge on Joelson’s chest had changed from silver to honorable purple.
n
n
nBrewster was instantly stunned and his expression was dull.
n
n
n“Dean Harrit Terrence has he… has he taken you in as his personal disciple?!”
n
n
n
n
nJoelson nodded.
n
n
nBrewster could no longer describe his current mood with words.
n
n
nAdmiration, envy, gratification, many complicated emotions piled up in his heart. “…”
n
n
n“Congratulations.”
n
n
nAfter holding it in for a long time, Brewster solemnly gave Joelson a standard mage etiquette and said with some respect.
n
n
nRight now, regardless of whether it was his strength or status.
n
n
nJoelson had reached a point where he needed to look up to him.
n
n
nObviously, Joelson still did not know what it meant to be Harriet’s first direct disciple.
n
n
nThe news spread throughout the entire academy the next day.
n
n
nThe entire academy was completely shocked by the news.
n
n
nJoelson had already brought them enough surprises, but this time, it was undoubtedly a level-10 forbidden spell that smashed into the Tulip Academy.
n
n
nIt was said that when Francis learned of the news, he had.
n
n
nHe withdrew from the Truth Society, resigned from his position as the head of the executive department, and devoted himself to the cultivation of magic.
n
n
n
n
nOn the third day, the entire Alcott Empire was shaken.
n
n
nThe pillar of the empire, the saint-level mage, Harriet Terrence, had taken in another personal disciple after a hundred years?!
n
n
nThis news was too shocking.
n
n
nImmediately after, the truth about Joelson spread.
n
n
nThe double super talent entered the Tulip Academy and directly broke through to the second grade.
n
n
nOn the third day, he advanced to the second grade.
n
n
nTwo weeks later, he advanced to the third grade. In the monthly routine test, he defeated his mentor, Aisha, who was a sixth-grade sorcerer.
n
n
nA month later, he challenged the Mage Tower and directly advanced from the first floor to the 40th floor, breaking the record set by the genius, Ulysses Lock.
n
n
nHe was hailed by all the teachers and students as the strongest freshman and the most monstrous genius academy since the founding of the Tulip Academy.
n
n
nWhat was more surprising was that.
n
n
nHe was also the Vice-President of the Magic Potion Association.
n
n
nOn the day he joined, he helped the Magic Potion Association develop a new type of offensive potion. The Magic Potion Association immediately became the most popular association.
n
n
nThis kind of magic potion had already been hyped up to the price of one thousand gold coins per bottle on the black market. Even so, it was still not available.
n
n
nJoelson was actually a magic potion genius!
n
n
nAnd this year…
n
n
nHe was only sixteen years old!
n
n
nAny feat, if placed on another person, would be enough to make others gasp in admiration.
n
n
nAnd when all these halos were concentrated on one person…
n
n
nThe degree of this light was so dazzling that it made everyone unable to open their eyes.
n
n
nIt was already a dazzling light.
n
n
nJoelson Edward’s name began to frequently appear in the mouths of the upper-class nobles.
n
n
nThey were curious and expectant about what such a genius youth looked like.
n
n
nMagic crystals with Joelson’s portrait on them spread out from the academy, and people were surprised to find out.
n
n
nThis legendary magic genius was even more handsome than everyone had imagined.
n
n
nCountless young noble girls were filled with shyness, hoping to have the opportunity to meet Joelson.
n
n
nEven the Emperor of the Alkot Empire was shocked.
n
n
n“What?!”
n
n
nJoelson raised his head in surprise and asked, “Charles III is going to award me with a medal?!”
n
n
n“Yes, that’s right!”
n
n
nShannon’s delicate face, which was quite neutral, was full of excitement.
n
n
n“Yes, to be precise, he will confer you the title of a lifetime Earl, and your father will have the title of a hereditary Viscount.”
n
n
nJoelson was very surprised. He looked at Shannon with puzzlement and asked, “How do you know so clearly?”
n
n
n“Ah? This is because…”
n
n
nA trace of panic flashed across Shannon’s face. He stammered, “Because, this matter has been spread throughout the entire capital. I heard it from others.”
n
n
n“Maybe it’s a rumor.”
n
n
nJoelson smiled carelessly, shook his head, and once again buried his head and focused on reading the magic book.
n
n
n“Shannon, it can’t be a rumor!”
n
n
nShannon pushed him anxiously and said, “The Emperor said it himself, how could it be fake? The medal ceremony is tomorrow night, and there will be a grand banquet at that time. All the nobles in the capital will come. Don’t forget it!”
n
n
nAfter saying that, Shannon left in a hurry.
n
n
nJoelson shook his head helplessly.
n
n
nHe felt that Shannon was a little strange today, but he couldn’t tell what was strange about it.
n
n
nJoelson closed his book and got up to go to Harriet Terrence’s residence.
n
n
nHe had directly jumped to the fourth grade now.
n
n
nThe dark blue mage robe had been changed to red.
n
n
nThere was no teacher anymore. Instead, Dean Harriet Terrence taught him personally.
n
n
nAlmost everyone around him knew him when he walked through the academy.
n
n
nWhen he passed by, the people around him would stop to watch and discuss.
n
n
n“Look, that’s the most famous person in the academy, Joelson Edward! The Tulip Academy is also the number one genius of the empire!”
n
n
nHowever, no one came up to him to strike up a conversation.
n
n
nBefore this, Joelson was only amazing. Now, he had risen to a level that they could only look up to.
n
n
nIt made them feel like they were in a different world from him.
