CHAPTER 435: SEE THE TRUTH IN 2 HOURS (LEISURE NEW BOOK CONTENT)

Li Qing was initially surprised but soon felt it was expected; even a Level 0 Magic requires substantial calculation, deduction, and analysis. Without sufficient Intelligence to support the flow nodes of Magic Power, you wouldn’t even know the purpose of each node.

Analysis, construction, solidification, release.

The four essential steps of using Magic, indispensable.

If your logical thinking isn’t good, understanding these things might be difficult.

It wasn’t until after eleven forty that Li Qing reluctantly closed his textbook. These days, he finally found his old zeal for learning.

Really, if during his school days he could study as hard as this, he definitely could have gotten into a prestigious university.

Even without his current Intelligence.

An effort-driven genius can achieve great things, as long as his IQ falls within the normal range. More focus lies on one’s self-discipline.

Time was about right.

Li Qing checked the time. After dressing in his black robe, he glanced around his rented room.

It’s time to find a new place.

After entering the safe house at Gray Magic Academy, Li Qing prepared himself briefly and opened the door to enter the classroom early.

With the example of previous incidents, none of the remaining fourteen students wanted to be late.

Settling in his seat, some students were quietly chatting in twos and threes, while others like Li Qing remained silent.

Or rather, most were silent, with only a few students whispering to each other.

The figure in a blue-edged black robe suddenly appeared on the podium, as always, it was Rosenberg with his catfish-like head, his entire body hidden under the black robe.

"Alright, everyone, now, showcase your results to me. Let me see what kind of Devil lies within you, arising from your hearts. Now, come forward one by one for me to inspect, uh, starting from the first row on the left."

Rosenberg spoke incredibly slowly. If not for the previous scene of devouring students lingering in everyone’s mind, one might mistake him for a gentleman of great nobility.

Seeing a black-robed student step forward to stand before Rosenberg, Rosenberg slightly raised his palm, a faint cyan light washed over the black-robed student, before lowering his hand.

His voice revealed considerable satisfaction: "Very good, you may leave."

Li Qing knew this person as Jes, who was acquainted with the malicious Anna.

It was finally his turn, as he stood before Rosenberg’s playful gaze.

Rosenberg: "Alright, human boy, let me see what the most desire-driven race would compel the Devil to do to you."

The most desire-driven race?

Li Qing couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow, refraining from speaking.

This statement wasn’t wrong, but being evaluated in such terms by this peculiar teacher was somewhat shocking.

It seemed that humanity, in the Magic World, was indeed a formidable presence.

Useful information, enough to defy the novels that often depicted humanity as a humble existence.

Yet from the current situation, it seemed human desires were keenly known by these foreign beings.

As Rosenberg’s hand emitted cyan light, gently brushing past his face, Li Qing felt an instant surge of eeriness envelop him, a chilling sensation springing forth, raising the hairs on his body.

It was as if a mere ant was being scrutinized by a human, who then used an optical microscope to examine him inside and out.

"Hmm, interesting..."

After contemplating a while, Rosenberg nodded with a slightly curious smile, clearly intrigued by how Li Qing has subdued the Devil.

Once all students completed their checks, Rosenberg regrettably declared: "Then, congratulations on successfully passing the entrance exam. Next, I will teach you the true Mage’s Path at Gray Magic Academy. I hope we’ll have enjoyable interactions in the days to come..."

Rosenberg couldn’t help but chuckle sinisterly, which Li Qing perceived as entirely malicious.

"Today, let’s begin our first lesson, Meditation!"

Rosenberg’s voice became solemn.

"To enhance their fundamental powers, all Mages must cultivate Meditation; regardless of whether you’re at the Magic Apprentice Level or a Legendary Mage, daily Meditation practice continues.

When you progress in Basic Meditation Technique such that light balls illuminate your mind, it signifies the gradual transformation of your Spirit, granting the potential to use Magic."

Li Qing was absorbed in listening when a black-robed student next to him raised a hand.

Rosenberg wasn’t bothered and cheerfully said: "Taras, do you have any questions?"

Taras stood up, his somewhat immature voice sounded: "Tutor, in my hometown, Magic can be used as long as Spiritual Power is condensed, why do we need to add the condensation of Magic Power?"

"Because sometimes, you may encounter no-magic or magic-prohibiting environments. When unable to manipulate external energies, the Magic Power condensed within you becomes a crucial avenue for using Extraordinary Power."

Li Qing suddenly understood; this explains why, when researching the Level 0 Spell ’Mage’s Hand,’ Spiritual Power alone was used for operation, involving the Magic Nodes cycle, although internal Magic Power participated in the cycle.

Hmm, Li Qing internally paused slightly. Compared to the Air Elemental Energy in Gray Magic Academy, Elemental Energy in his reality was pitifully scarce.

The four-hour class zoomed by. As the session neared its end, Rosenberg opened his mouth to say: "Magic relies largely on self-learning. From now on, monthly concentrated Q&A sessions will be held, so classes like this will be rare. Any course arrangement will be notified through your badge."

Does that mean only one class a month?

Li Qing snapped back to reality, hearing Rosenberg continue: "Therefore, cherish the blissful times you have now. Of course, should any questions regarding Magic arise midway, you can activate your badge to inquire at the tutor’s residence. A kind reminder, avoid knocking casually; just stand at the door."

As he finished speaking, Rosenberg already vanished.

The classroom fell silent, black-robed students exchanged looks, somewhat speechless.

But upon further reflection, it makes quite a sense. Magic predominantly depends upon self-learning capacity, with monthly concentrated Q&A.

It’s quite a good method, except Li Qing heard the tiny regret in Rosenberg’s words, clearly hoping for daily classes leading to students being late to devour...

Simply a Devil!
