Chapter 1: The Awakening of the Young Man! Thaumaturge...

  After being taken away from the ward, Ailin was locked in a dark iron house with only a window the size of a human head.

  But he wasn't worried about what kind of punishment he would suffer, on the contrary, after successfully seeing Chris, his heart was filled with infinite fighting spirit!

  With a clear dream and a goal to strive for, people seem to suddenly become spirited and meaningful.

  Aileen felt that the road ahead of her suddenly became clear, and even the starlight coming in through the small window was brighter and more beautiful than usual.

  "You must first be able to defeat other members of the Academy team before you can join..."

  Eren was already exhausted from his basic training before he arrived at the medical room, but as soon as he thought of those words, he suddenly stopped sitting on the ground and continued to practice intensely in the cramped space, squatting, jumping, stopping abruptly, and punching.

  As time passed, Ailin's entire body became like a drowned man pulled out of the water, with all his muscles and even bones burning in scorching pain, as if cracked open, so that every move he made would make him cry out in agony.

  "What are you doing?"

  The heavy iron gate suddenly opened, and a large amount of fresh air poured in. Standing at the entrance was Jielan, an elite teacher with a red scarf wrapped around her neck and attractive brown shoulder-length hair. As soon as she saw Ailin's distorted face and dripping wet body, she was taken aback.

  "I'm practicing." Elin panted heavily, after recognizing that it was Galan teacher, he said with a fighting spirit: "Because I want to join the college team and participate in the Starry Sky Brave Cup College Competition."

  "A newcomer wants to directly join the college team and participate in this competition?"

  Jialan thought of Ailin and Bero's actions, and looking at the many flower-like Ailins still locked inside, she felt a headache coming on, and was also shocked: "Did you watch the match today? Then didn't you see that each participating team member might suffer very serious injuries, even risking their lives, aren't you afraid?"

  "Don't be afraid, I'm going to take on those formidable guys and defeat them!"

  "It's as if there isn't even a hint of fear, no wonder Liszt..." Galen looked at Ailin's excited expression, she couldn't see any trace of fear or hesitation in Ailin's eyes. She couldn't help but shake her head secretly and didn't say anything else, just looking at Ailin said: "You can go back and rest now."

  "Can I go back and rest now?"

  "Yes, I've investigated and it has nothing to do with you. However, if you want to enter the medical institution again in the future, you must first get my approval. Otherwise, entering like this without permission may affect Cures' treatment and harm her body."

  "Got it, next time I come, I will definitely look for Teacher Jialan!"

  Ailin was led by Jialan to the academy's avenue, after bidding farewell and walking a few steps away. However, he suddenly turned around and loudly asked Jialan, who had also turned around and walked a few steps away: "Teacher Jialan, many powerful techniques can only be used after refining the technique yuan particles, right?"

  "Really?"

  Jialan turned around with a somewhat strange expression, looking at Ailin who was clearly exhausted but still had an enthusiastic face. She nodded: "Of course, the real power of magic is the combined power of magical particles and concentrated magical force. As for some techniques that rely on physical movements to trigger magical forces, they can only be called 'martial skills' and their power cannot be compared with true magic."

  "Teacher Jialan, how can we condense the yuan particles?" Ailin asked with a look of expectation.

  Jialan was stunned.

  She was rarely asked such a question, because there had never been such an impatient newcomer, as almost all students were well aware that they would naturally learn more about cultivation and techniques in the course, and almost all students were clear that even if they were geniuses, it was not necessary to consider this issue before the first grade.

  Perhaps in normal times, she wouldn't have carefully explained this problem to a freshman who had just entered school, but thinking of Liszt's words and then thinking of the boy's eyes full of hot blood without a hint of fear, her heart suddenly thumped.

  "You should already be very clear that the power of the body is divided into two parts. One part is the power accumulated in every small molecule of our body, and the other part is the power of our spiritual will. As for the power of the technique, it is the power of the external yuanqi that we can perceive. Condensing the yuanqi particles requires concentrating our spiritual power, absorbing the power of the external yuanqi into the body, and combining it with the power accumulated in every small molecule of the body, compressing it.

  Jialan took a deep breath and looked at Ailin, saying: "To reach the critical point where you can condense yuanqi particles, two conditions must be met. First, you need to have strong enough spiritual power, and second, the power stored in the small molecules of your body must also be strong enough. In simple terms, sufficient spiritual power and physical strength... Only by constantly challenging one's limits, surpassing one's own bitter practice, can one's spiritual power and physical strength continuously transcend and break through, and quickly reach this critical point."

  "So there's no special method, the only way to become a magician is to constantly practice and train?" Elain immediately understood, her eyes shining with enthusiasm.

  "There is no shortcut method." Galan nodded: "The basic training in peacetime can continuously enhance physical strength, and some ordinary techniques practiced in peacetime can make you better feel the yuanqi power in the air. For new students like you, you can only feel and use external yuanqi power when coordinating with chanting and unique movements. You need to cultivate until you don't need chanting and unique movements to perceive external yuanqi power. At that time, you may have a chance to condense yuanqi particles. Otherwise, even if you can't feel the external yuanqi, it's an intangible thing, how can you possibly touch it and pull it into your body?"

  "Of course, when your spiritual and physical strength have reached the critical point of condensing the origin particles, the academy will also have some unique meditation movements to help you better feel and utilize the external origin energy." After a slight pause, Jialan looked at Ailin who was listening very seriously and continued: "But at that time, the most crucial thing is how you can concentrate your mind to a high level."

  "I understand, that's something to consider when the time comes. For now, what I can do is keep challenging myself and surpass my own bitter training, right, teacher!"

  "It's best if you can think that way." Galen looked at him and suddenly thought of something, saying: "The teacher Houston who is teaching you now, although not one of the top teachers in terms of combat power in the academy, is very good at condensing elemental particles. He is also one of the fastest teachers to condense elemental particles among all the teachers."

  "Really?" Ailin was somewhat skeptical; "But everyone says that he can't even be considered a top-notch teacher, and yet he's able to quickly condense the Tao Yuan particles. Shouldn't that be the most diligent and outstanding one?"

  Gillian shook her head: "The degree of bitterness in practice is only one aspect, and the deciding factor in whether a technician is strong or not lies in his innate talent for technique and combat. Huston just happens to be slightly inferior in terms of technical mastery, unable to grasp some of the most powerful techniques in the academy."

  "Is that so? If Professor Huston is this amazing, then I'll definitely improve even faster." Ailin felt the path ahead of him clear up a bit more, he looked at Jiaran with excitement and enthusiasm: "Teacher, three months' time, is it possible?"

  "Three months?"

  Jialan hesitated for a moment, her shoulder-length brown hair fluttering in the night wind: "To be honest...it's not very likely."

  "Can't even one person do it?" Ailin asked persistently.

  "Throughout the entire continent of Dorast, only a handful of legendary mages have been able to do so." Galan looked at Elin: "In the history of our Sacred Dawn Academy, there has only been one person who successfully condensed a spell core within several months from awakening. And that predecessor was also of very pure dragon blood lineage."

  "Has anyone succeeded?" Ailin exclaimed excitedly, "Then I will also work hard to succeed."

  Jialan was suddenly speechless.

  ……

  Under the swaying tree shadows, Ailin's departing back also seemed a bit disheveled.

  Jialan silently gazed at this tired but seemingly energetic back figure.

  In fact, from any aspect, Ailin looked very ordinary before, and there was no difference with those newly born people of ordinary human blood.

  But when she really came into contact with Ailin and started talking, Jialan had a very strange feeling.

  This feeling seems not entirely from Ailin's eyes without a hint of fear and worry, nor entirely from the starry sky where there seems to be nothing he fears.

  There's something else.

  She didn't realize what else was going on until now, when Ailin's back was about to disappear from her sight. It wasn't until she thought of Ailin's excited smile just now that she finally reacted thoroughly.

  Even if one is extremely brave and fearless, thinking about the path to becoming a magician, which can only be achieved through constant bitter training, and tasting the flavor of transcending limits, wouldn't their heart feel a little chilled?

  Even she thought of those extremely painful moments that were more difficult than death, and she was still very uncomfortable.

  But this guy, as soon as he thinks about those sufferings that he will definitely go through and will soon encounter again and again, is extremely delighted, as if he is going to experience one joyful thing after another. What kind of attitude is this?

  "Go for it!"

  "Must condense the yuan particles!"

  "You must defeat other team members and join the college team!"

  I want to become stronger!

  Under the starry sky, Ailin walked towards the evergreen wisteria school building, continuously waving her fists with an excited expression.
