"Eh? No need?" Cagalli asked in confusion, but took the notebook back.

Qin Bin nodded, "I've finished reading it."

"Eh?" Cagalli was stunned for a moment, but she recalled Qin Bin's true "book flipping" action in class. She really couldn't believe that he could read all the notes she had written over the years in that way.

Although Qin Bin could see that Kagali looked unconvinced, he did not say anything more. Instead, he said to Leah, "Liya, do you have the primary summoning materials?"

Liya nodded. "Yes, or rather, I have some left over from my previous use. Bin, if you want to perform the summoning, you can postpone it for a while. I will help you prepare the best primary summoning materials."

"No, that's all. What I'm trying to do right now is theoretical verification, and I'm only doing temporary summoning."

There are two types of familiars summoned by a summoner. One is a temporary summoning, which requires constant consumption of magic power to maintain the existence of the familiar, and can be repatriated at any time. It can be said to be a mercenary, and the magic power provided by the summoner is the hiring fee.

The other is permanent summoning, which involves directly bringing monsters from another world into this world. After the summoner establishes a permanent master-slave relationship with the monster, the monster can exist permanently in this world without relying on the summoner's magic power.

Leah's two fifth-level fire birds are permanent familiars. As long as Leah does not sever the connection or die, the fire birds will continue to exist and grow in this world.

Of course, the Fire Bird is also a normal life form, and if it dies in battle it will die immediately.

"If it's just a theoretical verification, there's really no need for too much preparation." Leah nodded, and also sensed her storage ring, and said, "I still have six sets of primary summoning materials here. If it's just a temporary summoning, it can be divided into 18 sets. Is that enough?"

Qin Bin said, "I haven't tried it in practice, so I don't know, but let's use it first. If it's not enough, we can buy more after school."

"Alright."

At this time, Cagalli raised her hand and said, "Well, I have a few leftover primary summoning materials here. I'll give them to you, Binbin."

"Your name... Never mind, it's up to you. Well, thank you. If it's not enough, I'll ask Cagalli for more."

"Binbin, just call me Cagalli~"

"That's fine. Cagalli, thank you."

"Hehe~ You're welcome~ We're classmates, so we should help each other." Cagalli had a smile on her face, looking cheerful and lively, but in fact she was secretly paying attention to Leah's reaction.

When Kagali discovered that Leah was obviously unhappy that she was "hooking up" with Qin Bin, but as soon as Qin Bin opened his mouth, Leah suppressed her unhappiness, Kagali understood a lot of things.

"Lily has been tamed to the point of obedience..."

"This person from another world is really capable..."

'Interesting, interesting...'

Not to mention what Cagalli was thinking.

It didn't take long for the group to arrive at training ground No. 19, where they met the teachers and some students who had arrived earlier.

The so-called Training Ground No. 19 is an open-air venue covering an area of ​​three to four thousand square meters, and its internal structure is a bit like the ancient Roman Colosseum.

Surrounded by dozens of rows of circular stepped viewing platforms is a flat artificial lawn.

On the artificial turf, there is a "ring" one meter above the ground, about three or four hundred square meters in size, made of large, neatly stacked stones.

Looking at the magic carvings around the 'arena', you can tell that this is a platform that has been reinforced by magic circles and can activate special barriers.

At this time, in addition to the teachers and students of Class 3 of Grade 4 in the morning, there were two other classes of the summoning department sharing this training ground.

The teacher of Class 3 of Grade 4 today is a handsome, mature, middle-aged man with a delicate appearance. His name is Dita Stanley, and he is a sixth-level heroic summoner.

When the class was about to end, Teacher Dita asked the students to gather. After making sure everyone was present, she raised her hand to quiet everyone present and said, "There are still three months until the end-of-year entrance examination. I have been teaching you for almost four years. You all know my personality very well, so I will not say anything extra. If you want to get good grades and celebrate the New Year, you must work hard. Do you understand?!"

"clear!!"

"Very good, now we will start the practical class. Go and have a good chat with your combat partners. If you have any questions about the master-servant relationship, you can ask me directly. Now, go your separate ways."

Teacher Dita's words were obviously meant for Qin Bin to hear. After all, Qin Bin was the only transfer student here. Apart from Qin Bin, the other students were just as Teacher Dita said. They had been taught for almost four years, and everyone knew very well how Teacher Dita's courses were taught.

By the way, the Imperial Magic and Martial Arts Academy does not have winter and summer vacations. The only real long vacation is the annual leave, which is after the year-end assessment, from mid-December to mid-January of the following year.

"Oh--"

After the students responded enthusiastically, they dispersed into groups of three or five to various locations in the training ground. Some were on the lawn, some went directly to the "ring", and some even ran to gather with students from other classes and began to summon their own familiars.

All of a sudden, you can see the entire training ground filled with colorful summoning circle lights, and then familiars of various appearances also appeared through the summoning circle and interacted with their respective masters.

Of course, there are also some students with high levels who don’t even need a summoning circle. With just a thought, their familiars will appear directly.

Leah and Cagalli are among the top students, true elites who can solve problems with just a thought.

As for familiars, although summoners can make permanent familiars appear all the time without consuming magic power, the department has a rule that familiars cannot appear without necessity, and the purpose is to train students' summoning speed. After all, in this world, you can't bring "pets" into every place, so it has become an important course for summoners to quickly summon their own familiars and gain combat power in time.

Also, when a familiar is not in the present world, it is not directly sent back to the other world where it was born, but instead it is sleeping in a unique space in the summoner's magic circuit.

This unique space has a very straightforward name - the familiar space.

Let’s get back to the topic.

Qin Bin was of course very familiar with Liya's two fifth-level fire birds, which were an extremely good elemental familiar. They were a perfect match for a summoner like Liya who carried a sword and fought against others.

But Cagalli's was a small tiger-striped 'cat' about 30 centimeters long, with a cold aura and blue fluorescence all over its body.

Seeing Qin Bin looking over curiously, Kagali smiled and said, "Binbin, my familiar is a juvenile eighth-level Ice Fighting Tiger. Although it is only at the fourth level now, it has considerable growth potential. By the way, it's called Mushroom."

"Meow~~"

Well, the young version of the Ningbing War Tiger proudly roared at the stranger Qin Bin in a fierce and cute way.

That look also made Qin Bin look strange, and he even wanted to complain - is this thing really a war tiger? Also, a tiger that looks like a cat is named "Mushroom", how did they come up with this?

"Hmm? Binbin, is there something wrong with my mushrooms?"

"No, not at all."

"Binbin——"

"Okay, Cagalli, you should finish today's assignment. And Bin, it's time to start the initial summoning."

When Cagalli was about to say something, Leah interrupted her.

"Oh~~" There was nothing else Cagalli could do but to do today's assignment. However, she did not walk far. Instead, she took out a notebook and communicated mentally with her familiar.

After Cagalli shut up, Leah also took out six sets of primary summoning materials from her storage ring and piled them on the grass.

Of course, Leah's action attracted everyone's attention, and Teacher Dita, who was not far from Qin Bin and others, even came forward.

"Is Qin Bin going to summon a familiar?"

Qin Bin responded with a smile, "Yes, Teacher Dita, I have been learning theoretical knowledge so far and have not tried formal summoning yet, so I plan to use temporary summoning to verify the theoretical knowledge I have learned."

"I see." Teacher Dita nodded and said, "If you need anything or have any questions during the verification process, you can ask me directly and I will do my best to solve it for you."

"Thank you, Teacher Dita." Qin Bin bowed slightly and said, "If there is anything wrong with my verification process, please feel free to correct me."

"Okay." Teacher Dita nodded with a smile.

In just a moment, Teacher Dita knew that Qin Bin had a more easy-going personality, and he was also happy to deal with students of this kind.

Qin Bin said no more. He smiled at Teacher Dita and used his mental power to control the next material in the pile of summoning materials, letting it float to the open space in front of him and placing it on the grass in a unique arrangement.

Then Qin Bin knelt on one knee and stroked the grass with his right hand. The colorful magic light automatically formed a circular summoning magic circle with a diameter of about one meter according to the placement of various materials.

"The micro-manipulation of mental power is 'excellent', the process of constructing the summoning array with thoughts is 'excellent', the internal circuit structure of the summoning array is 'excellent', and the magic power distribution process is 'excellent'. Well, Qin Bin's basic skills are very solid, even more solid than most fifth-year graduates. You can't tell that he just joined the industry halfway."

Teacher Dita's words made Leah, who was standing beside her, couldn't help but raise the corner of her mouth, and she looked as if she was being exaggerated.

The students who were observing this from afar or nearby couldn't help but nod their heads in agreement with Teacher Dita's evaluation. At the same time, they were convinced and couldn't help but exclaim, "She is worthy of being the dean's disciple" and "She is amazing."

Of course Qin Bin didn't care about those things, but looked at Teacher Dita with some anticipation.

Qin Bin's gaze paused slightly at Teacher Dita, who secretly sighed, "You are a humble and good child," and then smiled and said, "You have a solid foundation. I can't see any flaws, and I can't give you any suggestions. You are really excellent."

"That's it..."

Qin Bin smiled a little embarrassedly, then looked down at the summoning circle, ready to start the first summoning...

Chapter 085: A Student's Day - Part

Seeing that Qin Bin was about to summon, Teacher Dita said, "Student Qin Bin, you should be aware of the taboos related to summoning, right?"

Qin Bin nodded seriously and responded, "Yes, I have memorized all the details of handling relevant emergencies."

"That's good." Teacher Dita nodded and emphasized, "In theory, it is impossible to connect to non-designated areas using low-level materials and low-level summoning arrays. But even in non-designated areas, there is a chance of encountering ferocious and powerful monsters. Although the probability is low, it is by no means impossible. So Qin Bin must not forget to be mentally prepared for an instant repatriation."

Qin Bin responded, "I understand. Thank you for the reminder, teacher."

Summoning, to put it simply, is when a magician with summoning attributes activates his own summoning attributes, thereby connecting on a spiritual level to a different world where monsters are prevalent, pointed to by the summoning array he has constructed.

The process is that the summoner throws a trace of magic power containing a soul imprint into that other world as bait. If individual creatures in the other world feel that that trace of magic power is useful for their own growth, or it suits their taste, or even they feel it is novel and come into contact with it, then the summoner can use the summoning circle to lure the other party to the Eternal Continent like fishing, and then mark it with a temporary service mark or a permanent master-slave mark, turning it into a short-term or permanent familiar.

The reason why it is called fishing is because summoning is really like fishing. No one can tell when or whether the prey will take the bait.

An unlucky summoner might actually fail to summon dozens of times in a row.

If you want to increase the success rate, you must increase the investment in bait, that is, invest more magic power, but it cannot exceed a certain amount, because the summoner needs to reserve magic power and energy to suppress the monsters that are caught.

What happens if you don't have enough magic power and energy left?

Of course, the summoned monsters will break free from the shackles of summoning, and then either escape or attack the summoner directly.

The Magic and Martial Arts Academy's existing summoning techniques and matching summoning arrays have a total of nine levels, corresponding to the nine areas of different strength in that particular alien world, which basically correspond to the strength division of one to nine levels in the Eternal Continent.

What Qin Bin is using now is the temporary summoning structure of the first-order summoning array.

The best ratio of magic power to be invested is one tenth of that of a regular first-level summoner.

Theoretically, this can only summon magical beasts of about level one.

However, the world connected to the summoning circle has been confirmed to be a normal world, and the creatures in that world are also mobile. It is possible that high-level creatures will run to low-price areas to wander around and encounter the Eternal Continent summoner fishing.

Once this situation occurs, if the summoner himself is not strong enough and there are no strong people around him, he can only forcibly stop the summoning technique and the long-distance rotation of the summoning circle, and at the same time perform the physiognomy ritual to forcibly repatriate the summoned creature.

If this doesn't work to send back the powerful and ferocious summoned creature, then the summoner can only wish for the best.

These are not just speculations or inferences, but similar situations have actually occurred.

That happened more than ten years ago. An unlucky student used a first-level summoning technique, a summoning circle and the lowest-level summoning materials, and unfortunately summoned a seventh-level epic monster.

If it had not been on the training ground of an outdoor classroom, surrounded by students and teachers, the unfortunate student would have probably died there.

Because of incidents like this, the academy has made it clear that students can only use summoning techniques in the training grounds and with a teacher nearby.

As for what happens outside the school, that is not the college’s business.

Of course, this example of using the lowest-level materials and techniques to summon high-level monsters is very extreme. It may take dozens or even hundreds of years to encounter one, but it is still not enough to make people feel ashamed.

That is why Teacher Dita emphasized this so deliberately.

Of course, Qin Bin was fully aware of these things.

I am also very curious about how the specific alien world corresponding to the current summoning array of the Eternal Continent was discovered by the people of the Eternal Continent and how this complete and clearly directed summoning process was constructed.

The reason for this doubt is that Qin Bin has confirmed from the old dean that people from the Eternal Continent cannot go to the other world corresponding to the summoning circle.

The old dean also said that there are many people who have the same curiosity as Qin Bin. There have been several ninth-order Sanctuary-level summoners who have explored this topic in depth.

The method of exploration is not complicated. We can use the high-level summoning array to do reverse engineering, trying to reverse the summoning array to send the summoner to that world. Or we can use the connection of the summoning array to that world, and ask the space system sanctuary to release the space coordinates, trying to build a direct connection between the two worlds, and then enter that world through the space coordinates, etc.

Those Sanctuary-level summoners tried countless methods, but all failed.

Those Sanctuary-level summoners were unwilling and helpless, so they had to give up the idea of ​​exploring that world. They even wrote an academic book to prove that the world was extremely hostile to external life forms, and then released it to the public.

At this point, the other world that the summoner connected to became a recognized unreachable other world in the Eternal Continent.

Since it cannot be reached, how did the summoning technique and summoning circle that can connect to that world appear?

The old dean couldn't answer this question either.

According to the old dean, he only knew that this summoning technique and summoning array structure seemed to have existed before he was born. In other words, this summoning array structure was at least a product of the last era.

The old dean wouldn’t know anything more.

Therefore, the old dean could only guess that in an even more ancient era, some unimaginable beings had visited that world, and developed summoning techniques and formations, and created a summoner system or something.

Although many things have not been figured out yet, based on the existing information, it can more or less be proved that the possibility of achieving cross-world travel within the Eternal Continent is not zero.

This is also one of the main reasons why Qin Bin chose to get in-depth exposure to the summoner system.

Let’s get back to the topic.

Qin Bin has a solid theoretical knowledge and has Lin and Liya's summoning experience information as a reference. In a sense, Qin Bin is not unfamiliar with the summoning process at all.

The spirit and magic power activated the summoning attribute in the body, and then connected to the glowing summoning circle on the grass. Soon, Qin Bin sensed a connection point of the world through the summoning circle.

If nothing unexpected happens, this is the specific different world that the summoning circle points to.
