Wizard: Starting With Synthesized Gems - Chapter 631

Chapter 628: The top four teams compete! Four school teams!

Chapter 628: The Four Strongest! Four School Teams!
In the courtyard of the Glazed Garden Castle, in the Senate, Antoine said to his grandfather, Wizard Fischer, “Grandpa, I’m going to the [Fighting Purgatory] run by the Senate.”

“There’s still half a year until the Plane Conquest Tournament. Going to Fighting Purgatory should be enough to increase my strength to the best state for participating in that tournament.”

Wizard Fisher was stunned for a moment. “Antoine, are you willing too? You’re my grandfather’s favorite grandson. Of all the hundreds of grandchildren, you’re the only one I like.”

“This world was created for you. As long as you are willing, even if the dean intervenes, I will not let you participate in the Plane Conquest Tournament and become Locke Augustine’s foil.”

Wizard Fisher said calmly, “I’ve recently sent people to investigate that wizard’s past. I still can’t believe that he was a wizard who grew up normally. His teachers, former classmates, everything about his past will be investigated, and all his secrets will be revealed.”

“Don’t worry, grandpa will make the decision for you.”

Antoine glanced at Wizard Fischer but did not stop him. He was just the reincarnation of a three-ring wizard, not a three-ring wizard now.

Therefore, one cannot disobey the will of the three-ring wizard in front of him.

The magic of the crown of the three-ring wizard has the property of resisting the erosion of time. Even after ten reincarnations, it will not be completely erased.

Although the magic of the crown has been dilapidated by the vicissitudes of time, once a third-ring wizard, always a third-ring wizard.

Perhaps, he will have to go through ten reincarnations before completely losing the special spirituality brought to him by the magic of the crown.

In a relatively short time scale (a thousand years), the spirituality of Crown Magic will never be completely extinguished, but will only decline to the extreme.

There are only a few ways to completely kill a three-ring wizard.

He was lucky enough that he had never encountered an enemy in his previous life who wanted him to disappear completely.

Therefore, if you want to completely eliminate the three-ring wizard, generally speaking, there are only three directions.

First, continuously kill his reincarnations, more than ten times in a row, and do not allow them to grow to the second ring stage each time, because once they become the second ring, they can make up for some of the spirituality that the crown magic lacks, especially when they reach the sun ring, they can almost completely make up for what the crown magic lacks.

At least there is no loss in that life. Even if you die again in that life, there will be no special spiritual loss in that life, and the number of deaths will not need to be recalculated.

Moreover, if he was lucky enough to become a three-ring wizard in this life, he would have to start all over again.

The second method is to use several special methods to kill the three-ring wizard at once. Of course, most of those special methods have been hidden, and those that have not been hidden are difficult to obtain.

The third method, and the simplest one, is to pretend that you don’t know about it.

For ordinary grudges, killing a three-ring wizard would end there. As long as the three-ring wizard changed his name, everyone would think he was dead.

After all, he has been reincarnated and has no memories of the past, and he has to acquire them later. He just still possesses the special spirituality of the crown magic of his previous life.

Therefore, many wizards generally choose the third method.

Unless there is a deep hatred between the two, they must kill each other.

Antoine looked at Wizard Fischer and said, “Grandpa, if you want to investigate Loki, that’s fine. But I still want to participate in the Plane Conquest Tournament.”

Wizard Fisher thought about it and immediately realized that Antoine had given Locke a nickname. Loki was the pronunciation of an ancient magical language commonly used by Antoine, which was transcribed from the common language.

It is also a homonym, probably meaning that the other party is a very smart wizard.

Wizard Fischer glanced at Antoine. “It’s rare to see you like a wizard so much, and it’s… the wizard who just took advantage of you being unwell and snatched the championship from you.”

“Antoine… since you haven’t earned the right to participate in the Plane Conquest Tournament, if you participate, you’ll just be a supporting role. You’ll expose your true colors and your true nature, but you’ll gain nothing. This doesn’t align with our philosophy of life…”

“Hide your incompetence!”

Antoine looked at Wizard Fischer and said, “Grandpa, I’m very happy about my battle with Loki this time. The pressure of losing was extremely painful, but also very novel. This long-awaited competition allowed me to reach my full potential.”

“I still want to feel competition once again. Maybe I don’t need to hide my weaknesses. This world is huge. Even if I were the reincarnation of a three-ring wizard, starting over again, and pursuing the path of teaching, I might not be a match for those little guys.”

Antoine got serious. “So, I want to change my mindset, really start from scratch, and treat myself as a new person.”

“I hope to gain your approval, Grandpa.”

A cold light flashed in Wizard Fischer’s eyes, and for a moment, he felt truly angry that Antoine dared to disobey him.

Wizard Fisher is a third-ring wizard and holds an important position in the Senate, in charge of a large amount of scientific research resources and administrative power. Not to mention a mere second-ring wizard, even a sun-ring wizard would be inferior to him.

But Wizard Fischer suddenly thought of something and uttered a few words. “If this is your wish, Antoine, then go ahead. Grandpa supports you. Just be careful about your own safety. You are Grandpa’s favorite grandson.”

“I won’t let you go to Combat Purgatory if you risk dying.”

Antoine saluted him, then walked towards an underground staircase entrance hidden by a magic barrier in the Glass Garden.

That’s right, the entrance to the artificial supernatural purgatory, a special prison built using ancient special technology, is in the garden of the Senate’s Glass Garden Academy.

Fighting Purgatory is an area where countless criminals and many evil magical creatures are imprisoned, where battles take place at all times.

Some wizards in the Senate, in order to break through their limits quickly in a short period of time, or to find better fighting techniques and research fighting directions, or because they have no research ideas for a long time, have to enter the fighting purgatory in the hope that they can learn by analogy.

But that place can also be dangerous.

Antoine is an important asset of the Fischer family, so Wizard Fischer originally had no intention of letting him enter Fighting Purgatory.

You know, there are wizards who are completely lost in fighting purgatory.

Of course, Fighting Purgatory is relatively safe. After all, it is an important asset of the Senate and cannot actually be considered dangerous.

It’s just that Wizard Fischer used to think it was unnecessary, and Antoine also thought that with his abilities, he didn’t need to go through Fighting Purgatory again.

Antoine stepped onto the spiral staircase leading to the Fighting Purgatory, his figure gradually sinking into the terrifying supernatural hell below.

“Locke… Loki… You said that if a wizard plays the role of a dog for too long, he will forget how to be a wolf. Loki, then I will give it a try and feel like a wolf again.”

Wizard Fischer looked grim as he watched Antoine enter the Combat Purgatory. A Moon Ring Wizard student beside him whispered to him, “Master Fischer, I will find an opportunity to enter the Combat Purgatory and persuade Antoine to give up such a dangerous practice.”

“I will also persuade him to give up participating in the Plane Conquest Competition in six months.”

The top three contestants from the Academy of True Knowledge in the Spell Combat Competition will enter the Plane Conquest Competition together, and the second and third place winners will serve as assistants to the first place winner.

This is the long-standing tradition of the Silent Grail.

But you can refuse, and after refusal, the next researcher from the Institute of True Knowledge will take your place.

Anyway, for a competition of this level, there will never be a shortage of people participating.

Wizard Fischer raised his right hand and waved, “No need. When have you ever seen Antoine so serious? He even went to Fighting Purgatory to further improve himself. I haven’t seen Antoine this serious in a long time. Maybe he has a point. He really needs competition.”

“Locke Augustine, you’ve made my grandson more energetic. I should thank you for awakening a beast that has been sleeping for a long time.”

…

Quinnjord University, the Quinnjord University Sports Festival also ended successfully at that time.

Quinjol’s total number of gold medals is still far ahead, representing the comprehensive strength of this academy, which can crush all wizard academies in the Quinjol region.

But the number of gold medals won by the second place Xiao Xishan has gradually increased, from less than one-third of Quinn Joel in the past to less than two-thirds of Quinn Joel’s total gold medals now.

The gap in the number of gold medals made many senior officials of Quinnjoel College fall into deep thought and became more cautious about Xiaoxi Mountain.

At this time, on the podium of Quinnjoll University, Wizard Edgar David stood on the podium and received the badge representing the champion, as well as the badge of the Silent Holy Grail Plane Conquest Competition.

Edgar glanced at the emblem of four hands clasped together, and the corners of his mouth curled up into an extremely confident smile.

When it was his turn to give his acceptance speech, Edgar spoke into the speakerphone in the hands of the presiding wizard beside him, “You want to ask me how I became number one? Ask me about my experience? Want to learn from me? But I regret to tell you all that the strong will always be strong. To be strong once is to be strong forever.”

“The strong will always be strong. Before I entered Quinjoel, I was already the most powerful genius in the Sun Shadow Peninsula. In Quinjoel, I spent half a year and finally became an outstanding first-ring wizard here.”

“I’ve only failed three times in my life, and from now on, I won’t let myself fail a fourth time. So, I don’t have any experience in turning a weak person into a strong one, but I will tell you that my existence represents Quinn Joel’s level of magic!”

A three-ring wizard of Edgar’s standing by admired him very much and kept clapping.

It can only be said that Edgar, as the second place in the Yunze Cup, has the right to make his own choice, and he is outstanding enough, so he did not meet a wizard whose personality did not match his. Instead, he met a three-ring wizard who was more introverted and low-key.

The witch looked at Edgar David, who was shining brilliantly on the stage. Not only did she not feel any resistance to his arrogance, but she felt that this young first-ring wizard was very energetic and had a vitality that she did not have in her youth.

Throughout the Golden Bridge competition venue, many wizards were discussing in low voices.

The wizards outside Quinnjoel were discussing in a low voice: “Is this the most powerful wizard of Quinnjoel’s current young generation?”

“I heard that he has an open class in Quinjoel about the cultivation of tree-man magic plants. The quality is very high. Students love to listen to his lectures. Every time he starts, the class is always crowded with students.”

“He must be from an outside wizard land, perhaps from the Sun Shadow Peninsula. When did the Sun Shadow Peninsula become so powerful?”

“That’s perfectly normal. How could we, Yunze Wetland, sustain all these industries solely relying on the local geniuses? Yunze Wetland is so powerful precisely because it can absorb most of the talent from the Eastern Boundary. The number of wizards is key. The more wizards there are, the more top-tier geniuses a wizarding land will have, and the higher their quality will be.”

“Well, he probably won’t be returning to the Sun Shadow Peninsula now. He should stay in Yunze Wetland to develop, so he can be considered a wizard of our Yunze Wetland.”

At that time, the high-level wizards of Quinjol University were also discussing this.

Several Sun Ring wizards were looking in the direction of the podium and discussing in low voices.

“When Wizard Edgar David first entered school, he was pretty ordinary. Although he was excellent, he was just an average genius. I never expected him to achieve such great success in just six months.”

“Hmm…his growth rate is indeed very abnormal. Others are growing linearly, but he is making rapid progress. I heard that the dean has sent people to investigate his past to confirm some things, but they found nothing unusual.”

“If he’s alright, then we at Quinnjoll University can be said to have found a treasure this time!”

“It’s just that I really don’t like his personality. Didn’t his co-instructor try to temper his temper? With a temper like that, he’s bound to suffer a great loss sooner or later.”

“I remember his mentor was Madam Candice. Madam Candice was a humble person, the most modest three-ring wizard in the academy. She had a nickname, Madam Silver Silk. Who would have known that the student she trained would turn out like this?”

At this time, on the podium, Edgar laughed heartily while holding the championship badge, looking extremely proud.

The second one was a witch. She looked helpless and blocked her ears with her fingers to alleviate Edgar’s shrill laughter.

The Constructor witch glanced at Edgar. “Did this guy transform his bloodline into a siren witch’s singing voice? Why is his laugh so piercing? It’s unbearable to let such a person become the champion. The wizards of Quinjoel have been famous for their humility for thousands of years…”

“If he represented us in the Plane Conquest Tournament and became the captain of our school team…”

The architect witch was speechless when she thought of that scene.

The style of this year’s Quinnjord University team participating in the Silent Grail should have been distorted by Edgar.

Edgar put his hands on his hips and laughed out loud. “Hahahaha…”

The architect witch looked desperate.

…

At Bonifacius University, on the podium, everyone was looking at the silent champion of the magic combat competition, a witch wearing a wooden mask, and everyone was whispering.

“This person is the most powerful magic weaver witch in the past five hundred years at Bonifacius University.”

“Almost. This is the first time I’ve seen such a powerful Magic Weaver witch… I heard that this year’s Plane Conquest Competition will be the most important step for the dean of the True Knowledge Academy to revive the Magic Weaver Academy. The direction of research funding for Bonifacius University will undergo certain changes in the future.”

“Oh my god, doesn’t that mean the Silent Grail Tournament has become a very important competition?”

“You’re talking utter nonsense. Even those students know that the Holy Grail of Silence Competition is the most prestigious commercial competition in our Yunze Wetland. Just wait and see. The Holy Grail of Silence Competition is different from all the fake competitions in the past. In that competition… people are allowed to die.”

“I heard that the Silent Witches of the Star Sea will all be watching this match, and they will invite high-level wizards from the Star Sea, Mystic Sky, and Green Steel City to watch the match. The scene will be so grand that it’s unimaginable.”

A Moon Ring wizard walked in and whispered, “To be precise, it’s actually a huge magic simulation competition. Forget it, my colleagues who have just arrived at Bonifacius University from the outside world less than ten years ago, I can assure you that the Silent Holy Grail Tournament is a competition of the highest standard.”

“Watching this game is a huge benefit in itself.”

The Moon Ring Wizard wore the insignia of an expert magic weaver. The mages who had been muttering in secret now looked guilty. The Moon Ring Wizard, however, looked at the witch with the wooden mask and ethereal eyes with great anticipation. “Georgina, if it’s you, it will definitely work.”

“People with dreams are infinitely powerful. Witch Georgina, you should understand this.”

“Use this competition to become a second-ring wizard.”

“There will be no enemy in front of you that can stop you. Your achievements will become the achievements of us Magic Weavers, no… our Bonifacius University.”

On the podium, Georgina’s ethereal eyes flickered as she looked at the wizards cheering her on. She pondered, “My parents were wanted for joining Dark wizards. My mother was imprisoned in a wizarding prison, and my father died during the hunt. My life has become a joke, and yet, at this moment, these people are cheering for me.”

“My life cannot be limited by my parents’ identities. My dreams must blossom in this barren land. The Plane Conquest Tournament is where I will become a second-ring wizard, be reborn, and regain honor. Twin Demon Realms… I will not stand against you, I will kill you all with my own hands!”

…

At the easternmost part of the Yunze Wetland, near the Lei Ze lowlands, next to the branch academy of the Root Crown Royal Court, there is an academy [Storm Tower]. It stands in the sky and consists of six rings.

There is a columnar thunderstorm running through the middle to ensure that the six rings rotate in the air. At the same time, the Storm Tower is opposite to the ordinary wizard tower.

Ordinary wizard towers stand on the ground, while the foundation of the Storm Tower is in the sky, and the top of the tower is closest to the earth.

Like a tall tower hanging from the sky.

There are a large number of buildings in the Six Paths Rings, and the surface of the Six Paths Rings itself is a large ecological space.

Below the Storm Tower is a huge magma pool, which is the Molten Iron Mountain among the famous seven mountains in Yunze Wetland.

It’s called Iron Mountain for short!
It also contains a large amount of liquid magic metal, flowing hotly within it, and there are also fire lotuses within it, forming a unique ecosystem.

In the area where thunderstorms are always present, the sports festival has also come to an end. The storm masters of Storm Tower won the victory with an absolute advantage, making it almost impossible for all the wizard academies in the Storm Tower area to compete with them.

Unlike other regions, the Storm Tower region has the fewest independent wizard academies. Most wizard academies exist in the form of cooperation with the Storm Tower, and directly become subordinate units that provide resources and various other services to the Storm Tower.

With the power of the earth, it supports the storm tower in the sky.

The winner of the spell combat competition at Storm Tower was a wizard dressed as a nobleman, followed by a large number of servants and students. His students presented the wizard with a magic wand flashing with lightning.

The noble wizard looked at the wand the student presented him with a look of disdain. “Another cheap one like this…”

But the wizard saw the sincerity in his student’s eyes, so he suppressed his discomfort and smiled. “Thank you, Bazel.”

“I didn’t expect that even after becoming a formal wizard, you still remember your teacher.”

Wizard Bazel looked at the wizard and bowed respectfully. “Lord Smith, you gave a commoner like me a chance. I’m even from another place, but you didn’t discriminate against me. You helped me in the research group.”

Wizard Smith smiled politely, but he did not take the wand from the magic box in the student’s hand from beginning to end. He just used his eyes to order the butler beside him to put it away.

Wizard Smith smiled gently and said, “Bazel, I’m very pleased to see your efforts. It is my responsibility to take care of the weak like you.”

“Your wand is very good, teacher. I will place the gift you gave me in my most precious collection room. Let the friendship between you and me become eternal.”

Bazel’s eyes were excited.

Wizard Smith said, “Alright. I still have a study in my lab that I haven’t finished yet. I have to leave now.”

Wizard Smith looked at the two powerful Storm Masters from the Storm Tower who had been defeated by him this time and said, “You two, I’m counting on your help in the Plane Conquest Tournament.”

“Thank you both. I wonder what kind of wizards are leading the teams from Mount Golden Crown, Bonifacius University, and Quinjoal University this time.”

“There’s still half a year left, and this is the perfect time to improve myself.”

The second and third place winners of the spell fighting competition looked at each other. They were both descendants of second-ring wizards of the Storm Tower and belonged to middle-class families within the Storm Tower.

Wizard Smith is a descendant of the wizard of the Three Rings Throne.

It was normal that the two of them lost to him this time.

The two of them often lost to the Smith wizard in other competitions, project applications, and journal submissions.

Wizard Smith even has a nickname called “Thor Wizard” in Yunze Wetland.

It was everyone’s expectation that he would get the right to participate in this plane conquest competition.

…

In the Golden Crown Mountain, in the Dragon Blood Market Castle, Locke put on contact lenses in the witch’s glasses shop.

He didn’t feel anything special happened.

The cosmic light contact lens looked like an ordinary lens, but not long after he put it on, he suddenly discovered that in the spell model galaxy model within his sea of consciousness, his consciousness represented the sun.

The permanent defense force field is Jupiter, the abyss energy is Saturn, and the bloodline power is the position of Mars.

At this moment, a magic model as big as Saturn appeared again in this galaxy.

Locke activated the spell model and blinked his right eye three times. Suddenly, his eyes turned into the entrance to a demiplane. He seemed to be able to see the vast land in that demiplane.

Witch Victoria straightened her wizard hat and smiled, “The idea behind the Druid’s Ring is that there’s a limit to how much a plane can hold. A wizard running around with a demiplane. At the first and second ring stages, no matter how good a magic ring is, it can’t carry a demiplane that large.”

“But my Cosmic Light contact lenses take a different approach.”

“It connects your eyeballs to a demiplane within the Warp. The lens itself doesn’t represent space, it’s just a portal. The plane itself is located in a very dangerous, special area within the void—the Warp Zone. Under normal circumstances, the Warp Zone is inaccessible to void warships. It’s a demiplane that’s clearly in the void, but no one can touch it.”

Victoria Witch said, “We can achieve this by coupling elemental particles. Furthermore, the demiplane within the Warp Zone is very special. The advantage is that no one can enter the Warp Zone, not even the Void Behemoths and Void Disasters. Therefore, the demiplane within is very stable.”

“There’s almost no chance of being attacked.”

“Take a look and see if there’s enough space inside.”

Locke looked inward at this plane, and through his right eye he looked down at that plane from the sky, and found that this half plane was much larger than the plane refined in the Druid’s Ring.

It’s about the size of an island.

The plane itself covers an area of 30,000 acres, but 20,000 acres of it is a simple ocean filled with water, and in the middle there is a flat land of 10,000 acres.

The overall shape is circular and flat.

It’s just that the surrounding oceans are constantly flowing out seawater, but because of the special nature of the subspace zone, the seawater will automatically flow back.

If it were in a normal void area, such a plane would have long since evaporated its resources and disappeared quickly, or become a dead star because of its small area and lack of a sufficiently powerful plane crystal wall system.
