Wizarding Age: I can analyze everything

Chapter 24 Trial Rewards

It's late October now.

Walking through the academy now, Pei Ze could clearly feel a slight sense of anxiety in the air.

The source of this problem is a large number of first-year students.

There are less than 35 days left until the first-year trial.

Facing the upcoming important trial, all the first-year students put in their best effort, working like wound-up springs to desperately improve their strength.

No one wants to be eliminated in this trial and become a loser who is ridiculed and despised by others.

In this tense atmosphere, the members of the Celestial Spirit Society worked even harder than before.

"The principle of negative energy is too difficult!"

After class, Guan Ling slumped onto her desk, sighing and complaining.

The others also shook their heads and sighed.

The principle of negative energy is of paramount importance in the basic knowledge of wizards, and many spells utilize this knowledge.

For example, vertigo techniques and acid splashing.

For example, there are more advanced first-circle spells like Fear and Weakening Ray.

But precisely because of this, the depth and breadth of this knowledge far exceed that of other basic knowledge, making it extremely difficult to master.

To this day, no one in the entire Star Spirit Society, including Shao Hong, has fully grasped this knowledge.

—Of course, Pei Ze is an exception!

He had long since mastered the dizziness technique and acid splashing, and had also integrated this knowledge into his understanding.

"If only I had half of Pei Ze's learning talent," Guan Ling said enviously, glancing at Pei Ze.

The other members echoed this sentiment.

"Half is too greedy, I only need one-third."

"I really want to take Pei Ze's head apart to see how he's different from us, and why he grasps all knowledge so quickly?"

"Hey, that's a dangerous idea of ​​yours. Be careful, or Pei Ze might give you a splash of acid."

"You actually dared to provoke one of the top ten experts in the grade. I admire your courage."

Everyone burst into laughter and jokes.

Pei Ze simply watched with a smile, without saying a word.

For apprentices, the biggest obstacle to improving their skills, besides aptitude and resources, is the accumulation and comprehension of knowledge.

Each spell involves multiple areas of knowledge.

Some apprentices spend ten days to half a month learning just one skill, while others even need a month.

This is also the main reason why most apprentices with decent aptitude improve their skills slowly.

Only Pei Ze, who possesses the all-seeing eye, can master a subject of knowledge by reading a book once.

The reason he is in the classroom today is simply to avoid drawing attention, so he comes to class occasionally like the other apprentices.

While the Star Spirit Society was chatting, apprentices would occasionally pass by and greet Pei Ze warmly.

Yuan Wanjun, Guan Ling, and the others were not surprised.

Ever since that day when he scared Qi Meng away in the logistics department building, the news of Pei Ze's promotion to second-level wizard apprentice quickly spread throughout the entire grade.

Since there were only nine second-level wizard apprentices in the entire first year, he was naturally included in the top ten of the year.

Because of this, Pei Ze has received a lot of attention at the academy these days.

People are naturally drawn to strength, especially in the dog-eat-dog world of wizards, where the strong are always more likely to be respected and admired.

"Have you heard?" Yuan Wanjun suddenly asked mysteriously.

Guan Ling rolled her eyes and said, "You haven't even said what it is, how are we supposed to know if we've heard of it or not?"

Yuan Wanjun gave an awkward laugh and said sheepishly, "I was referring to the trial."

Upon hearing the word "trial," everyone present immediately perked up their ears.

Guan Ling urged, "Quickly, tell me what it is!"

Yuan Wanjun chuckled and said, "It is said that the academy has prepared very generous rewards for this trial, much more generous than those of previous trials."

"According to past practice, only the top ten in the trial receive rewards, but this year, anyone who makes it into the top fifty will at least receive a bottle of spirit spring potion!"

Everyone's eyes lit up immediately.

A bottle of Spirit Spring Potion is worth 200 contribution points; the academy's spending is far too extravagant.

"Really?"

"Where did the information come from?"

"Don't let it be hearsay."

"Of course it's true." Yuan Wanjun patted his chest, looking completely certain. "It was said by a disciple of a formal wizard. The academy will announce it in a few days, and then you'll know I'm telling the truth!"

Hearing Yuan Wanjun say this, everyone no longer doubted it and showed excitement.

Even Pei Ze was somewhat tempted.

The top fifty will at least get a bottle of spirit spring potion, so the rewards for the top ten must be worth thousands of contribution points.

How generous would the rewards be for the top five, or even the top three?

However, after the initial excitement, everyone quickly regained their composure.

"The reward is indeed very tempting, but getting it won't be so easy," Shao Hong said, frowning.

Nearly two months have passed since the start of the new semester, and most of the students who have not yet been promoted to wizard apprentices have already left the academy.

There are still more than 6,000 wizard apprentices left in the first year.

Including Pei Ze, there are a total of thirteen known second-level wizard apprentices.

According to some observant individuals, more than fifty of the remaining first-level wizard apprentices have already constructed six will runes, and are just waiting for their mental strength to reach the required level to break through and advance.

In other words, to get into the top 50 and receive the rewards, you need to build at least six Will Runes.

As for the Celestial Spirit Society, not to mention Pei Ze, even the strongest member, Shao Hong, has only constructed five Will Runes so far, and it will take at least seven or eight days to construct the sixth.

Given their abilities, it would be extremely difficult for them to obtain the reward.

Even worse, several people were lucky to even pass the trial, let alone receive any rewards.

"Forget it, I'll give up on the reward. Just passing the trial will be good enough."

Guan Ling said sadly, then glanced at Pei Ze.

"Only Pei Ze is absolutely certain that he can get the reward."

Everyone nodded in deep agreement.

Unlike them, Pei Ze was fully qualified to compete for the top ten rewards.

After chatting for a while, everyone went their separate ways.

After finishing his work at the No. 8 Medicinal Herb Garden, Pei Ze went straight back to his apartment.

He sat cross-legged on the floor in the living room.

"Omniscient, detect my current state."

【Spirit 21.58】

[Body Condition 9.62]

【任务1：解析8号意志符文，预计还需17天4小时37分钟】

[Task 2: Improve the acid splash spell model, estimated time 26 days 3 hours 23 minutes]

[Task 3: Improve the model of the Fatigue Touch spell, estimated time 22 days 1 hours 9 minutes]

Because most of his mental energy was consumed in analyzing the crow, Pei Ze's progress in analyzing the will runes and improving the spell model fell behind, and he only successfully constructed the 7th will rune.

Even so, his mental attribute has broken through the 20 mark, soaring to 21.58 points.

"After being promoted to a second-level wizard apprentice, the speed at which my mental and physical attributes improved has increased significantly."

Pei Ze estimated that once the No. 8 Willpower Rune was analyzed, his mental attribute should increase by 25 points.

By then, his physique should also increase to around 11 points, reaching the intermediate knight level.

"Once we've settled the matter with the magical pets, we'll focus all our efforts on analyzing the Will Runes."

The later the rune of will, the longer the parsing time.

However, as Pei Ze's mental strength improved and the acceleration effect increased, the actual time required actually decreased, and he could analyze a will rune on average in three or four days.

At this rate, he could complete the construction of all twelve will runes of the Universal Meditation Method in at most twenty days.

Then we will focus all our efforts on mastering the spells, and strive to master and improve all the necessary spells before the trial begins.

"And the matter of pharmacy should also be put on the agenda."

Pei Ze's eyes flickered slightly.

He has mastered all the books on the list given by Yin Xue these past few days and is just waiting to purchase the materials and put them into practice.

Just as I was pondering this, there was a sudden knock on the door.

"Mr. Pei, are you there?"

Pei Ze looked up and could clearly hear the hoarse sounds coming from outside through the door.

The crow catcher has brought crows.
