There was no chance to showcase before.
This ti, to reveal the ’Holy Artifact’ in front of others, there was no intention to continue hiding.
"Not bad."
"I am already a Legendary Mage."
Chen Jichuan was very composed.
He possessed the ’Commanding All Laws’, where mana equaled magic power, and his magic power was exceptionally abundant, surpassing that of a legendary level. Once mastering Fourth-level Magic, he would naturally beco a Legendary Mage.
There was no surprise or excitent.
"Legendary!"
"Legendary!"
However, Morris and the other two were overjoyed. They exchanged glances, then simultaneously bowed to Chen Jichuan and said in unison, "Congratulations to the Dean on ascending to Legendary!"
Legendary!
The two words alone are enough to represent the power of this level.
At Level 4, a mage is already a legendary figure, known across the pan-plane.
And on Valgrion, there were only four legends across the entire continent.
One can imagine that the ergence of Chen Jichuan, the fifth legend, would surely rewrite the continental dynamics, and those who started along with him would certainly rise in ranks and fortune.
There was no way they couldn’t be thrilled and joyous.
"You consider first."
Seeing Green in a daze, Chen Jichuan didn’t rush him. Instead, he looked at the overjoyed Morris and the others, smiling as he said, "Over the years, the three of you have contributed greatly, and finding the ’Holy Artifact’ has not been without effort."
Chen Jichuan’s gaze fell on the three of them, then he stood up, walking towards the outside of the office, and beckoned, "Follow ."
"Yes."
The three of them were all smiles, not knowing where the Dean was taking them, but feeling extrely excited and expectant inside.
"Where is this going?"
Green and Black Rope saw the situation and followed.
Chen Jichuan led them to the Ninth Layer ’Advanced ditation Room’.
"Advanced ditation Room."
"So it’s here."
Returning to a familiar place, Green was filled with emotion.
Back then, his studies in the ’Summoning Cottage’ were unremarkable, and having a decent job after graduation, a good start, was thanks to the Ninth Layer’s ’Advanced ditation Room’.
"Forty-four years."
"Things have changed."
Years later, stepping in again, Green couldn’t help being filled with emotion.
"Each choose a room and go ditate."
Chen Jichuan instructed Morris, Grant, and Mina.
This ’Advanced ditation Room’ had a reputable na outside the ’Summoning Cottage’ and even the Mage Tower. In nearly fifty years, countless students and tutors had made breakthroughs here, becoming Level 1 or Second-level Mages.
But a Third-level Mage had not yet appeared.
Chen Jichuan initially intended to wait a few more years, then find an opportunity to help Morris and the others break through one by one. But it’s better to strike while the iron is hot, and on this joyous occasion, he might as well help them break through in one go as a reward for their diligent efforts over the years.
"Thank you, Dean!"
The three guessed Chen Jichuan’s intention and were imdiately excited, entering their respective ditation rooms with anticipation.
Once they entered a ditative state, Chen Jichuan activated the ditation rooms, and the magic power imdiately surged, becoming rich and lively.
But beyond this, nothing seed remarkable.
Green and Black Rope both tried to perceive carefully, but found nothing extraordinary.
The forr had past experiences, a ’childhood filter’, believing there must be so profound mystery within.
"What is this?"
"What is going on?"
Black Rope, being new, was utterly confused at the mont.
In fact, Black Rope’s perception was correct; this was indeed just a very ordinary ditation room.
The real wonder that could help one comprehend and make breakthroughs still lay in Chen Jichuan’s ’Enlightennt’ Great thod.
With three fingers pointed across the space, Chen Jichuan quietly waited with Green and Black Rope.
Roughly over an hour passed.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Three successive roars as magical power converged, and the energies intermingled, shining brilliantly.
In the next mont.
The doors of the three ditation rooms opened, and Morris, Grant, and Mina walked out, now Level 3 Great Mages.
...
Inside the Dean’s Office.
Green had left, and Morris, Grant, and Mina were stabilizing after their breakthroughs, leaving just Chen Jichuan and Black Rope in the spacious office.
This great mage from the East Continent was still dazed at the mont—
"Just like that..."
"Just like that..."
"...Broke through?!"
Black Rope felt as though his worldview had been trampled on.
He rembered the hardship he went through to breakthrough to a Third-level Mage, gathering various magic materials with much effort and worry over countless days, only feeling fully prepared after many anxieties.
Fearing that a single slip-up would squander years of effort, leaving no hope for future advancent.
But here in the ’Summoning Cottage’, under the hands of Dean Benage, known as the ’Elental Hand’, three Second-level Mages were helped to advance to Level 3 so casually.
"Rash!"
"Too rash!"
Black Rope was unwilling to accept this.
"Otherwise, how should it be?"
"Slaughter chickens, sacrifice lambs, sing and dance?"
Chen Jichuan fiddled with ’Yisusi’s Staff’, casually responding to Black Rope.
For him, helping three Second-level Mages breakthrough was as easy as eating and drinking.
And this was only on the Divine Throne Continent, only these mages. If he were in Chongming Realm, even without ’enlightennt’, he could easily guide those of the Second-order True Person to breakthrough to Third-order God Transformation.
"..."
Black Rope opened his mouth but was at a loss for words.
He gritted his teeth, deliberately skipping over this topic, and thought of Green leaving happily.
Thinking of this naive kid, his heart felt much happier.
"He’s only a Second-level Mage now, clearly the first reward would be more practical. Having a Monarch’s assistance is sothing many great mages seek in vain. Choosing the second reward is not only aiming too high but also shows a lack of confidence in himself. Combined with his poor aptitude, he might not be capable of achievents, with little future prospect."
Green ultimately chose the second award.
He wasn’t Black Rope and didn’t know the gap between a Great Mage and a Legendary Mage. However, after witnessing Morris and the others break through to Great Mage within just over an hour, Green’s confidence in Chen Jichuan swelled infinitely.
Afterward, he chose the opportunity to breakthrough to Legendary without hesitation.
Green left joyfully, but Black Rope felt Chen Jichuan was deceiving people.
"Legendary is not so easily achieved."
"The young man is still too naive."
"Your Dean just didn’t want to give you a Monarch to use, intentionally setting a trap."
These words Black Rope dared not say out loud, only mocking Green for being too young in his heart.
"Quite the contrary."
Chen Jichuan, in a good mood from possessing the Holy Artifact, was pleased to chat with Black Rope and said with a laugh, "I think Green is excellent, for he can resist the benefit in front of him and choose to invest in the future, which shows he has aspirations. He’s willing to give up a tangible Monarch level power and choose a seemingly elusive promise in your eyes, Mr. Great Mage, showing he trusts and admires , the Dean."
Everything always has two sides, depending on which aspect you look at.
The sa second choice, in Black Rope’s mouth, was ’aiming too high’, ’incapable of achievents’, but in Chen Jichuan’s eyes, it was ’aspirations’, ’trust, and admiration’.
It’s hard to determine who is right or wrong, and it’s uncertain which would have been better for Green.
Life is like this, always presenting choices. Each ti it’s hard to determine right from wrong, and each choice gives rise to countless possibilities.
Life becos more exciting because of these choices and this uncertainty.
