"Has Lord Ross ever seen those sacred beasts?" Celia asked curiously.
Ross nodded. "Of course, if you're interested, you can hunt a sacred beast for a barbecue."
"Hunting sacred beasts... Won't the school be angry?"
Ross didn't care: "At most, I'll be fired. It's not a big deal."
Celia: "..."
It sounds like the sacred beast is just teasing the students and won't harm them.
Celia made up her mind that once school officially started, she would deliberately study until nightfall one day, and then see what the sacred beasts were.
Out of caution, Celia asked Ross, "What are the ranks of those sacred beasts?"
"Minimum level five."
That's fine.
Celia didn't want to be fooled by a group of fifth-tier sacred beasts.
After Blake finished his guidance, he asked all the students to stay there and then left.
Benovia approached Celia and pulled her into the Saintess Clique.
Doris put her hands on her hips and looked at everyone: "How about it, do you want to have a competition and see who advances first?"
Benovia looked at Phil and said, "I don't think I can beat him, so I'll just give up."
Phil has recovered well, but her ordeal in Leicester City left her with her head down, too ashamed to speak to anyone.
Celia checked Phil's physical condition and asked, "How are you? Is there anything else that's bothering you?"
Phil shook his head. "No, I'm sorry."
Doris patted Phil on the shoulder: "What do you mean sorry? You have no idea how cool you are. Why can't I have such a good thing? Although I was invaded by pollution, it also expanded my body. Damn it."
Celia rolled her eyes: "Forget about it. Phil has a special constitution that allows him to withstand pollution. If you go up there, you'll be crippled in no time."
Doris retorted, "How could that be? Don't look down on me, Celia. How about we have a competition to see who reaches level four first?"
Celia scoffed, "I won't compare myself to an idiot."
"You are the stupid one!"
"..."
The Saintess group was having a great time. Celia paid special attention to Anko's hair, which was gray with a faint hint of white.
It seems Anke wouldn't dare to flaunt her green hair at school.
Just then, Celia sensed someone watching her, turned around, and saw Sharon.
Celia waved: "Shalin, over here, come play!"
Seeing that Shalin hesitated, Celia went over and pulled her over.
"Let me introduce you. This is Benovia, this is Anko, and this is Phil. Her name is Shalin, and she's in my class. Although she's not a candidate for sainthood, she's still a genius."
After waiting a while without being introduced, Doris said with dissatisfaction, "What about me? Celia, have you forgotten something?"
"Oh, this idiot's name is Doris, just ignore her."
"you……!"
Sharon felt a little uncomfortable and nervously greeted everyone.
Celia could tell that Sharon was uncomfortable, but since they would be seeing each other all the time in the future, and they were both students in the fourth-level intensive class, they would definitely need to communicate and learn together in the future, so it was better to get to know each other in advance.
Not just Sharon, but the other classmates can also get to know each other, but this kind of thing...
Celia looked at Benovia.
Benovia seems more suitable.
……
After leaving the Tower of Diligence, Celia bid farewell to everyone and returned to her dormitory.
Rose's phantom appeared from the side.
“Summon the puppet,” Ross said.
Celia's heart skipped a beat.
coming.
The girl was extremely reluctant to summon the puppet.
Ross manipulates the puppet and begins to plan for Celia.
“Now, apart from your magic refinement level, you meet the basic requirements for the Ascension Trial in every other aspect. It would be best if your magic refinement level reached 120%, but it doesn’t matter if you don’t. I’ll give you half a month to finish learning all the subjects, and then you can start preparing for the Ascension Trial.”
"Half a month?"
Celia's eyes widened.
Last year it took another month.
How come it's only been half a month this year?
Is this some kind of exploitation?!
Ross said irritably, "Half a month is pretty good. There are many things you don't need to study specifically. Those subjects, such as runes, spells, holy words, etc., your learning progress has long surpassed that of other students. Don't waste too much time on them."
"I...I'll give it a try..."
Celia herself sounded unsure of herself.
A year's worth of courses, totaling 12 subjects, can be completed in half a month.
too frightening.
“A genius should act like a genius. If you can’t even do that, how can you be a well-rounded genius?” Ross said calmly. “You might not believe it, but your friend, Benovia, has already completed five years’ worth of studies. Are you going to admit that you’re inferior to Benovia?”
It was never as good as...
Celia muttered to herself, but didn't say it aloud.
Before Ross could finish his tirade, she raised her head and said firmly, "Don't worry, Lord Ross, I can do it."
Ross withdrew his hand and nodded approvingly.
"Then, let's get started."
Celia's face fell, and she reluctantly opened the textbook.
Ross watched, his attention slowly shifting to the other side.
Benovia also returned to her secret cabin.
After a moment's thought, Ross delivered a 'divine oracle' to her as she prayed.
"Complete the perception of external magic within half a month."
Benovia opened her eyes and looked at the statue in front of her.
"Ok."
She nodded earnestly.
Besides Benovia, Ross was also paying attention to another person—
Phil.
A month before school started, Phil ran away from home and returned to the Temple of Ember to treat patients.
Now that she has left school, she is preparing to go to the Temple of Embers to become a diligent priest.
While Celia was engrossed in her studies, Ross used his puppet to teleport and stop Phil.
"follow me."
Ross's tone left no room for argument.
Thanks to book friend 20240608081624389 for the reward~
Chapter 526 Exchange Student? Are you sure they're not prisoners?
Ross found Phil's fearful yet reluctant expression amusing.
So he always spoke to her in an unquestionable, commanding tone.
It's the same this time.
Even though Phil was nervous and scared, he obediently followed Ross to a deserted place.
After that, Ross threw a plan in front of her.
"You have now been expanded by the power of the abyss and are qualified to become the vessel for my descent. This is your next enhancement plan: within one month, complete all academic studies, comprehend the magic of nature, increase your magic refinement to 120%, and then advance to the fourth rank."
Phil's eyes widened.
"This... I can't do it."
"Your clinic hours are cancelled."
“No…no,” Phil said nervously.
Ross raised an eyebrow.
Such a cowardly rejection?
"It has to be okay even if it doesn't work."
“I will fulfill the request, but… I refuse to cancel the treatment.” Phil lowered his head.
Ross chuckled lightly, "Heh, then let me see just how far you can go."
If Phil insists, then let her insist.
There are two more saintesses, how about we do it all?
Ross pondered for a moment, then shook his head, indicating he had no intention of doing so.
Compared to Phil and Benovia, Anko and Doris are slightly inferior. Benovia has the most resources and the strongest brain. The improvement brought by her memory and reading volume makes her even more talented than Celia. In addition, she does not need to learn runes and various other things, so in terms of improving her strength, she is no worse than Celia.
With the help of Ross's 'revelation', his progress, while not as good as that of Celia who actually helped him, was not far behind.
Phil goes without saying. Her previous sacrifice gave her a Tier 5 experience card, giving her unique insights into high-level combat power. Her magic was also refined by a massive amount of abyssal pollution, resulting in a very high level of refinement.
After such a long period of recuperation, her strength has steadily increased, and she has already touched the threshold of advancement, an extraordinary encounter that is beyond the reach of Celia.
Of course, if Ross hadn't protected her body, the fifth-tier Abyss Contamination would have killed her on the spot. Even if she hadn't died, she would have become a cripple, or a youthful version of the Abyss Princess who relied on demonic energy contamination to survive.
"The other two don't need special guidance. If they see how hard these three are working, they will naturally be motivated. If they aren't motivated and remain lazy, then we'll wait and see."
Ross wasn't in a hurry. He hadn't yet obtained the divine essence of the main god that constituted the summoning ritual. This was a method that would only be available to him after Celia reached the fourth rank.
Phil will go first, and the others will have to wait their turn.
After contacting Phil and giving him a mission, Ross manipulates the puppet back to Celia's dormitory.
Meanwhile, Celia was still studying hard and was unaware that Ross had gone out for a trip.
The next day, school officially started.
On the first day of school, there was basically no need to study anything. The school teachers and students were having a lively discussion about their holiday experiences.
The biggest events that happened during the holiday were the destruction of the Deep Sea Aid Society and the southward march of the Holy Court army.
The former involved many school mentors, including Elena, who was currently dealing with a barrage of questions from her students.
And Celia... is studying.
Seeing how hard she worked, some of her friends were inspired and immediately took out their books.
But they were quickly defeated.
You simply can't learn in a noisy environment.
Even Celia was affected to some extent.
Just as she was contemplating whether to find a way to block it out, Elena's voice reached her ears.
"By the way, an exchange student from Blue Dragon Magic Academy will be arriving tomorrow. According to the assignments, she will be assigned to our class. Everyone, please make sure she doesn't get neglected."
