Chapter 152 Friends
Although Thain does not intend to defend his challenge stage ranking reward.
But until the end, Thain also received the academy reward for three consecutive months.
The main reason for this situation is that the ranking of apprentices in Jizhiyuan Holy Tower Academy has been fixed for a long time.
There are only so many senior apprentices and quasi-magicians who have been on the list all year round and are keen on fighting on the challenge platform.
It is impossible to conjure new people out of thin air.
If it weren't for two senior apprentices who were also new faces, they had broken into the top twenty of the challenge stage in the past two months.
Thain's ranking reward may be available for a few more months.
It is worth mentioning that Mark, the senior apprentice who was defeated by Thain, returned to the top 20 on the academy's strength list after fully recovering from his injury in the third month. He is now ranked 19th.
Returning to the top twenty did not excite Mark at all.
On the contrary, after studying the tactics against Thain for more than two months, I suddenly learned that the opponent had never been to the challenge area since the last battle.
Mark's long-charged fist seemed to hit cotton.
Official magician Erin seems to have paid more attention to Thane since the last apprentice battle.
Faced with her grandson, who always wanted to regain his position from Thain, Irene scolded her with a low face: "Thinking about useless things all day long, when you waste time on boring things, do you know what Thain is doing? ?!”
"What is he doing?" Mark asked aggrievedly.
"People frequently go to various official magician classes, and even go to the library as many as 27 times in a month. The average study time in the library exceeds six hours a day."
"What are you doing during this time? I heard that you have made a new girlfriend, she is the princess of the Kingdom of Malgeria?" Magician Erin asked with her sharp fingernails poking Mark's head. road.
Facing the anger of Magician Erin, Mark naturally did not dare to contradict him in any way.
In the end, I just replied weakly: "Being a princess of the Kingdom of Malgeria is considered a high achievement for our family. If this can happen, I think both my father and grandmother will praise me."
Mark's answer made Erin roll her eyes.
…
The conflict with senior apprentice Mark was just an episode in Thain's study at the Holy Tower Academy of Blue Origin.
Him and the horse
Ke is not a stranger. As Thain continues to absorb knowledge about elements, his personal background is gradually improving.
When Thane reaches a higher realm and class, the gap between the two will only become wider and wider.
Three years later.
Jizhiyuan Holy Tower Academy Library.
I just found my favorite magic book in the area on the left side of the seventh floor of the library.
Thain was holding this ancient "Atlas of Light" and was going to go downstairs to go through the rental procedures.
There are three reading modes for the magic books in the Jizhiyuan Holy Tower Library.
One is to read it directly in the library and put it back after reading it.
This is the cheapest way to read. The Holy Tower will only deduct corresponding academy points based on the length of time the apprentices stay in the library.
The second is to go to the lobby on the first floor to rent the book you like.
This kind of price is more expensive than the first kind, but the advantage is that you can take it back and look through it slowly. Of course, if the book is damaged, you will have to pay the full price in the end.
The third option is to purchase a rubbing copy of this magic book directly from the Holy Tower.
Since it involves the sale of knowledge, this requires the highest price, and few apprentices would do this.
The vast majority of apprentices in the Holy Tower learn knowledge in the library in the first way.
For example, the gray-haired apprentice sitting in front of Thane was looking down at a magic book at his desk.
And like Thain, apprentices who take magic books home to study slowly are also a minority in the academy.
After all, wealthy apprentices like Thain are rare in Holy Tower College.
"Green, are you still reading about the annihilation knowledge of fire element magic and ice element magic?" Thain asked the gray-haired apprentice in front of him.
Normally, it is very serious and impolite to disturb others reading in the library.
However, because the gray-haired apprentice in front of him has a better personality, and he is the only apprentice that Thain has met in the five years since he came to Jizhiyuan Holy Tower Academy and can be called a "friend", so this This kind of interruption is nothing.
Thain didn't care, and the gray-haired apprentice Green didn't mind either.
"Yes, Thane, I feel that the magic explosion produced by the blending of water and fire elements is too strong, and the instability associated with it is beyond the control of magic apprentices like us."
"On the contrary, the fusion of ice and fire elements is more malleable, and the special
Especially since I just found a new magic book in the library yesterday. The author of this book, Master Brand, has very deep insights in related fields. "
"I am looking through the works of this master. I don't know if our library has other books by this master..."
Senior apprentice Green usually has a dull temperament.
But when it comes to magic, especially the areas he's involved in, this guy can be a voluble.
Very few people like this kind of nerd.
In fact, until now, this apprentice named Green has only made friends in the Holy Tower Academy with a few other apprentices who are from the same human country as him.
Thain was able to become "friends" with this guy because, on the one hand, Thain got reminders and help from him when he was looking for a certain magic book in the library more than a year ago.
On the other hand, the personalities and routines displayed by these two guys are so similar.
Both of them are the kind of "ruthless people" who can stay in the library for a whole year and never attend any noble balls.
Maybe it was because of this mutual sympathy, or maybe it was because they had often sat and studied together for more than a year, and the two became strangely friends.
Especially regarding the fact that Green could have friends, his magic apprentices who came from the same human country also sighed in disbelief.
However, after roughly inquiring about Thain's situation, Green's fellow villagers were relieved.
Sure enough, the people who can become friends with this guy usually have to be the same kind of people.
Green came to Jizhiyuan Holy Tower College nearly twenty years earlier than Thain.
However, they are similar in age. It seems that Thain is a little older, a year or two older than Green.
Green is undoubtedly a genius. At just around thirty years old, he is already a senior apprentice.
What is even more commendable is that Green does not have as many resources and magic books left by his mentor like Thain.
This guy has grown up and learned bit by bit since he came to Jizhiyuan Holy Tower Academy.
Without any extra resources or adventures, he can surpass so many noble children in the Holy Tower Academy as an ordinary apprentice.
Green can achieve what he is today only through diligence and hard work.
