Physical mage, challenge me to a solo duel!

A Yama King with extraordinary combat power died quietly and without a trace, without even a ripple.

Perhaps for this reason, the underworld organization became wary, and for several months after Wang Yi killed Wu Guan Wang, life was as peaceful as usual.

Forget about extraordinary mages, I haven't even seen a single unfamiliar mage since.

So Xu Jun, who had been watching Wang Yi for three months, ended his surveillance of her.

After all, Xu Jun is not young anymore. He has to release his soul power to keep watch every day, which reduces his sleep time to two hours. Even when he falls asleep, he still has to keep his mind focused, which is quite exhausting.

Of course, the most crucial reason is that Wang Yi has advanced.

The fact that the underworld organization came knocking on his door undoubtedly put a lot of pressure on Wang Yi.

So in the following period, Wang Yi voluntarily gave up a lot of study and training time, and even took a long leave from school. He stayed at home in the underground training room every day and devoted all his energy to cultivation.

Wang Yi first spent ten days re-condensing a Nirvana Seed to make up for his lost life.

This time, with the continuous supply of magic power from the soul, Wang Yi no longer needs to eat dirt.

After that, he cultivated day and night. Finally, with the help of the high-level Silverfin Fish Magic Crystal that he had prepared in advance, he completely absorbed the divine-grade passive magic: Magic Surge within it, and finally raised the magic power in his body to the limit of a mid-level mage.

Two days before graduating from high school, Wang Yi finally entered the ranks of high-level mages.

At the age of nineteen, he broke the record for the fastest time to become a high-level mage.

Whether anyone will follow in their footsteps is uncertain, but in the nearly one hundred years of magical history, this is absolutely unprecedented.

On the night he became a high-level mage, Wang Yi sat cross-legged in the underground cultivation room and took out a large number of magic crystals from the void.

This includes mission rewards from the Night Watch Army and the Candlelight Army, the high-level magical beasts he killed when dealing with the "Bridge" level interdimensional passage, the magic crystals Wang Yi specially applied for from the military after learning about magic from Yu Qiang, and finally, the human crystals of Wu Guan Wang.

Nothing much to say, let's start adding points!

Legendary-grade Jade Bone, absorbed! Legendary-grade Ice Skin, absorbed! Legendary-grade Mind Domain, absorbed! Legendary-grade Armor-Piercing Tail Spike, absorbed! Legendary-grade Heart of the Fiery Dragon, absorbed...

The faint magical fluctuations that Wang Yi made during his advancement clearly caught the attention of Xu Jun, who had been keeping a close eye on things. Xu Jun then sensed that Wang Yi had taken out a pile of magic crystals stacked like a small mountain from the void, picked them up one by one, and after two or three seconds, the magic crystals lost their luster and were thrown aside by Wang Yi.

These magic crystals all belong to high-level magical beasts, with a wide variety of races, including fire phoenixes, flame dragons, frost giant bears, jade tigers, blue-armored scorpions, dark gold mantises, gold-devouring locusts, mind insects, phantom butterflies, light-devouring daemons, lava titans, mountain giants, light angels, flame cloud unicorns, sea shark gods, black gold ancient trees, and so on.

There was even a magic crystal that Xu Jun couldn't recognize; it was the magic crystal of the Queen of Thought Bees.

Sensing that the magic crystals in front of Wang Yi were losing their luster one by one, Xu Jun suddenly opened his eyes from the bed, then sat up and sat there blankly for two or three seconds. Then he stood barefoot on the floor and paced back and forth in the room.

Wang Yi's rapid advancement to a high-level mage was already enough to shock Xu Jun.

According to Xu Jun's calculations, even if Wang Yi, under his tutelage, is already able to skillfully use soul power to assist in cultivation, it will still take him nearly a year to successfully advance to the next level.

However, it seemed as if Wang Yi's demonic power had suddenly increased out of thin air, directly saving him a year of cultivation.

Moreover, Wang Yi took out far too many high-level magic crystals; some were quite common, but others were extremely precious.

The small pile he had in front of him alone was probably worth more than the fortune of many extraordinary mages.

Of course, some of these magic crystals were obtained by Wang Yi himself, some were exchanged for by Wang Yi with military merits, and a small portion were applied for directly by Wang Yi from the military.

As for Wang Yi's application for magic crystals, the military has always approved it directly unless they are truly unable to produce them.

With the Candlelight Army and the Night Watch Army as the main forces, and the Blood Burning Army, the Flying Phoenix Army, the Stardust Army, the Death-Seeking Army, and the Pioneer Army as auxiliary forces, these seven powerful armies with connections could easily obtain some magic crystals to satisfy Wang Yi's request.

After all, Wang Yi didn't apply for any extraordinary magic crystals, and he only applied for one of each type.

Although Xu Jun was surprised by the speed of cultivation and the amount of magic crystals Wang Yi had accumulated, it didn't seem like a big deal compared to Wang Yi's subsequent habit of consuming magic crystals indiscriminately.

Indeed, after advancing in rank, mages absorb a large amount of pre-prepared magic crystals, resulting in a significant increase in their strength in a short period of time.

But even Wang Yi couldn't have done it that fast. It's like a young person adding skill points in a game – just a few clicks of the mouse and it's done.

This made Xu Jun wonder if Wang Yi had actually succeeded in absorbing the magic crystals. He wasn't just wasting magic crystals on empty talk.

Of course, based on Wang Yi's personality, Xu Jun still believed that Wang Yi would not act recklessly, much less waste her time.

But it was precisely because of this that Xu Jun was so shocked, and even couldn't help but wonder: if Wang Yi could absorb epic-grade magic as easily as drinking water when he became a transcendent mage, then just how powerful would he be?

Moreover, Wang Yi is already a high-level mage and has completed the development of his soul power. It is believed that becoming a transcendent mage within four years should not be a problem.

Four years from now, a young mage who is invincible under the taboo will emerge in China. His dominance will probably overwhelm those foreign superhumans.

Xu Jun, having served as a night watchman for half his life, was naturally thinking about Wang Yi's influence in the real world. He didn't even consider how effective it would be against those super-level magical beasts.

Wang Yi, who was frantically absorbing the magic crystals, was of course aware that his actions were completely exposed to Uncle Xu's soul perception.

However, Wang Yi didn't care.

Uncle Xu and Marshal Chu already knew a lot about his unusual behavior, so they didn't mind letting them know a little more.

As Wang Yi absorbed legendary-grade magic continuously, his mentality gradually became more stable, or rather, a little arrogant.

This is the inevitable result of its own formidable strength.

If the intermediate-level mage was the turning point for Wang Yi's true rise, then the advanced-level mage was the cornerstone for Wang Yi to stabilize himself.

After three years, he finally gained a certain level of self-protection in this world, the kind of person who dared to go toe-to-toe with a transcendent mage.

What's more, behind him stands a retired forbidden mage from the military and a military marshal who is about to become a forbidden mage.

What does it mean to have both talent and connections? (Leans back, hands on hips)

Wang Yi even felt that once he truly advanced to the level of a transcendent mage, after absorbing a large number of super-grade magic crystals, he would dare to rush into the magic world and pull out the tail stinger of that spiritual-type sacred beast to pick its teeth.
