Chapter 53 – Promotion to a Level-1 Apprentice Warlock
Translator: Xaiomoge
Time flew by, and 100 days passed in a blink of an eye.
Sitting within the practice room of his dormitory, Yang Feng slowly opened his eyes, and powerful life force fluctuations slowly seeped out of his body.
His eyes flashed with joy, and he willed: “I’ve finally promoted to a level-1 Apprentice Warlock! Scan my body!”
<Yang Feng, basic attributes: strength 3.7, agility 3.5, physique 3.6, spirit 4.2.>
<Bloodline: earthling waste.>
<Soul aptitude: superior level-2.>
<General evaluation, classified as a level-4 life form.>
Yang Feng mused with some regret: “Promoting to a level-1 Warlock within 100 days, this result is considered to be excellent! Although, it still fell a bit short when compared to the geniuses.”
Physical constitution of Apprentice Warlocks was equivalent to that of Knight rank expert, but with much higher spirit force. It wasn’t so simple to be promote to an Apprentice Warlock. Among the students that joined the Warlock College Antalya at the same time as Yang Feng, there were also only 20 plus students with superior level-5 soul aptitude or higher that promoted to level-1 Apprentice Warlocks within 100 days.
The genius of the Fernandro Family Jessica only spent 15 days to promote to an Apprentice Warlock. When she joined Warlock College Antalya, she already possessed advanced Warrior rank physical constitution, which was how was able to promote to a level-1 Apprentice Warlock within 15 days.
“Light!”
Yang Feng pointed and a sphere of light abruptly lit up in front of him and brightly illuminated the entire room.
Light was the simplest level-0 spell and the easiest way to test if you have been promoted to a level-1 Apprentice Warlock. As long as you could cast the level-0 spell Light, then that meant that you possessed the lowest-level of casting ability, promoted to a level-1 Apprentice Warlock, and took the first step towards exceeding the limitations of ordinary people as well as took the first step on the Warlock path.
Yang Feng curled the corners of his mouth, feeling very content. After promoting to an Apprentice Warlock, he felt his body brim with strength. When compared to his previous subhealth body, it was like day and night.
Yang Feng assessed his battle prowess: “With my current strength, even without a gun, I can easily get rid of a junior Warrior! However, if I meet a Knight rank expert, I won’t be their opponent.”
Yang Feng was a knock-off Apprentice Warlock who reached the Apprentice Warlock rank by ingesting large quantities of elixirs. As he didn’t went through rigorous battle drills nor life and death battles, his fighting strength was rather lacking. Princeling Apprentice Warlocks who have also rose to their rank by ingesting large quantities of elixirs possessed similar fighting strength to his.
Although Yang Feng also practiced the basic sword art, basic blade art, and basic melee-art, and even though he possessed the microchip’s assistance, but his battle prowess couldn’t compare to that of an expert who has promoted to the Knight rank via bitter training.
“Now I can pass the test and join the inner court!” Yang Feng got up and left the room.
Inside the Warlock College Antalya’s appraisal room for Apprentice Warlocks, two attractive girls sat behind the reception counter.
The beautiful girl about 16 or 17 years old with short blue hair and wheat colored skin, and full of youthful vigor complained to a fairly reticent-looking, beautiful girl about 18 or 19 years old with long brown hair: “Anya, it’s really boring here, we haven’t seen anyone for half a day! If it wasn’t for the salary one magic stone per month, then I really wouldn’t want to come here. Can’t you put the spell book down and chat with me?”
Anya put down the spell book in her hands. A look of anxiety in her eyes, she sighed faintly: “Inna, we don’t have much time. After entering the inner court, if we can’t promote to a level-3 Apprentice Warlock within six years, then we’ll have to leave the college. I don’t want to go back, to have to comply with my family’s arrangements, and become a tool used to forge alliances and be married off someone from a random Warlock Family.”
The competition within the Warlock College Antalya was fierce. Once you entered the inner court, if you didn’t promote to a level-3 Apprentice Warlock within six years, then you would have to leave immediately. Only the excellent seedlings who could promote to a level-3 Warlock within six years would be paid attention to and could continue to study at the Warlock College Antalya, and the college would put in even more resources into their grooming.
It has been almost four years since Anya entered the inner court, yet she only just recently promoted to a level-2 Apprentice Warlock. To promote to a level-3 Warlock within two years was nearly impossible. As such, the great pressure weighing down on her prompted her to use any opportunity to study.
When Inna heard that, her pretty face turned pale, and she said dispiritedly in a bitter tone: “To promote to a level-3 Apprentice Warlock within six years, how can it be that simple? Only the Fernandro Family’s Jessica, Bond Family’s Cohns and Mexid Family’s Ryan, only those geniuses with level-6 soul aptitude are certain to promote to level-3 Apprentice Warlocks within six years. To students like us who only have level-4 soul aptitude, to promote to level-3 Apprentice Warlocks within six years is just too difficult.”
Anya sighed once again.
At this moment, Yang Feng entered the appraisal room.
On Inna’s welled up a professional smile: “Hello, this is the Warlock College Antalya’s appraisal room for Apprentice Warlocks. Have you come to be appraised as an Apprentice Warlock?”
Yang Feng spoke with a slight smile: “That’s right! I am Yang Feng.”
“What? You’re Yang Feng? The Steel City’s only successor Yang Feng?” Shocked, Inna’s eyes flickered withof surprise.
The eyes of Anya who wore a professional smile flashed with astonishment.
The Steel City’s sole successor Yang Feng’s soul aptitude was only at inferior level-1, practically the whole Warlock College Antalya was aware of this fact. According to common sense, someone with such a soul aptitude would never be able to promote to an Apprentice Warlock. Yet now Yang Feng came to be appraised as an Apprentice Warlock, which was simply inconceivable.
Yang Feng responded faintly: “That’s right!
Inna spoke apologetically to Yang Feng: “I’m really sorry for forgetting myself! Please cast a 0-level spell.”
“Light!” Yang Feng reached out with his hand, and then a sphere of light shone in front of him.
Inna nodded and said: “Indeed, a level-0 spell! Please provide the report for the continent’s common language, the basic god language, the basic dragon language, the basic fiend language, the basic elven language, the basic study of planes, the basic mathematics, the basic geometry, the basic biology, the basic botany, the basic elementology, and the Turandot Subcontinent’s modern history!”
These basic courses focused mainly on memory. With the major cheating device smart eyeglasses, Yang Feng easily got excellent marks in all of those courses.
Inna carefully checked the report provided, and then uttered with a faint smile: “Please wait a moment!”
Before long, Inna handed Yang Feng a gray robe with a copper thread on the cuffs: “This Apprentice Warlock robe has been enchanted with the level-0 Decontamination. In the outside world, it is worth more than 300 gold coins. After you promote to a level-1 Apprentice Warlock, one such robe will be given to you for free.”
