Chinese professors at the Wizarding Academy

"They didn't leave; they're following me."

After mastering the Star Gazing Technique, Gu Chen clearly felt that his mental power had become stronger, and the most prominent manifestation of this was the enhanced perception he had as a Blood Wizard.

"I knew it couldn't possibly be a banquet they were here to invite me to; they probably just wanted to drag me into the woods and kill me."

"However, Joebeck is too arrogant, he only sent two mid-level first-ring wizards."

In Gu Chen's perception, the magic power flowing in the blood of the two trackers was not particularly abundant. According to his estimation, he could basically confirm that both of them were at the mid-stage of the first ring.

"One fire, one water?"

One of them had extremely violent blood flow, while the other's blood flowed quietly.

More importantly, Gu Chen's spirit, strengthened by the Star Gazing Technique, sensed the magical power unintentionally emanating from the two trackers.

"Ken signed a teacher-student contract, and his injuries on the surface weren't too serious. With his recovery ability as a first-level high-ranking mind wizard, the damage I caused to him and the backlash from the spells I used will only take a night to heal."

"That makes things easier."

If an ordinary wizard were to use their mental energy to probe, it would be like focusing their vision on the projected mental points. Generally speaking, there would definitely be some omissions. What Gu Chen is doing now is throwing out an eye that can scan 360 degrees without blind spots, and it also comes with automatic perception and true vision, and there are a total of 101 of them!

In an instant, Gu Chen's perception was like a drop of water seeping into the surface of water, creating silent ripples that spread outwards.

The ancient trees beside me have roots that penetrate deep into the earth, absorbing nutrients.

In the distance, there was a cluster of mushrooms emitting a faint glow; they were energy aggregates carrying a slight toxin.

Several beetles were working diligently in the soil beneath their feet.

Further away, a restless, earthy-smelling consciousness was moving; Gu Chen judged it to be a "digging badger" digging for roots and stems...

"Not my prey, it's over there..."

"Found it."

Finally, at the edge of his perception range, a relatively powerful life form, with scorching blood energy fluctuations, was hovering in a certain direction... probably the rocky slope to the north!

What a pleasant surprise!

The Bloodhoof Deer, which was originally intended to be found only by venturing into the outer area and reaching the rocky slope, was actually right there on the way!

Gu Chen opened his eyes, his gaze sharply fixed on the north. Without hesitation, he moved through the trees like a ghost. He didn't need to carefully discern the path with his eyes; the projected mental points had already indicated the smoothest and least obstructed route for him, even allowing him to avoid dangerous areas in advance.

"The Black Forest is fraught with danger, but that's actually a good thing for me."

"A typical mid-level wizard in the first stage usually has 250-400 points of mental energy, and will use quite a lot of it to scout the environment in advance in order to ensure their own safety."

"In most cases, we still have to rely on the faint light of the license plate to see with our naked eyes."

Gu Chen dared to investigate so recklessly because of the powerful investigation capabilities, low consumption, and rapid recovery provided by the Star Gazing Technique.

Lower-level wizards do not have such techniques.

Gu Chen now felt like a fish back in water, experiencing a strange sense of ease and comfort in this dark forest that was fraught with danger for others.
