“Daniel, come up! Today, let me defeat you fair and square, so everyone knows who the true champion of this Wizard Apprentice is.”
To his surprise, he saw Daniel turn and leave. The pride in his heart swelled; he never expected to win without a fight. Especially when he saw his greatest rival, a formidable opponent, lacking the courage to face him and choosing instead to flee, willingly settling for second place. What a delight that was.
This marked a perfect conclusion to his time in the Wizard Apprentice.
With a spirited turn, he faced the host of the Talent Wizard Championship, Third-Rank Wizard Ms. Samantha, and said, “My lady, since Daniel has voluntarily forfeited, please announce the results of the competition!”
Samantha nodded: “Then I will announce that this Talent Wizard Championship has concluded successfully. Franklin wins first place, truly deserving of the title of champion. Second place goes to Daniel, who has become a Formal Wizard and voluntarily forfeited…”
Franklin felt a buzzing in his head, as if the colors around him faded away, plunging him into a black-and-white world devoid of sound and color.
Becoming a Formal Wizard, how could that be possible?
On the dueling platform, who could rival him? Looking around, no one could compete.
This should have been something enviable, yet he let out a low, sinister laugh. On the dueling platform, who could compete? It seemed impressive, but it was merely given to him by others. What use was this first place?
Daniel had advanced to Formal Wizard during the competition, already surpassing him.
What good was this first place? No matter who mentioned it, they would think of a super prodigy emerging from this competition—someone who had not used Green Water and had already become a Formal Wizard.
Even everything that followed would merely be an embellishment to his story.
His first place was nothing but a hollow title, a gift from others. He waited in a daze for the award ceremony to end before turning to leave, ignored by everyone.
“Hahahahahaha,” Cleveland's hearty laughter echoed as he entered the inn. He saw Daniel and pulled him into an embrace, enthusiastically patting his shoulder. “Junior, my dear junior, congratulations! You actually became a Formal Wizard without using Green Water.”
“I was really worried about your battle this time, thinking you would lose sooner or later. I didn't expect you to become a Formal Wizard and leave Franklin far behind. You should have seen his expression at that moment; it was truly spectacular. So, how does it feel to be a Formal Wizard? Isn’t it a bit different?”
Cleveland chattered on endlessly, clearly overjoyed by Daniel's achievement.
Using Green Water for promotion is currently an essential method for the Wizard Alliance; it's the most convenient and least costly method, but it doesn't necessarily mean it's the best approach.
Promoting through potions is a last resort. Even using the most perfect Green Water will leave certain injuries within the body that are difficult to heal and may even affect future promotions.
Initially, the Wizard Alliance did not invent Green Water but used other methods.
However, regardless of the method used, there would always be hidden injuries that affect future promotions and are hard to recover from.
After countless years of experimentation, the Wizard Alliance discovered that if someone could promote to Formal Wizard without using any potions, their potential would be maximized.
In the early days of this discovery, the Wizard Alliance was eager to cultivate such talent, but very few succeeded.
This method was incredibly difficult; even if someone raised their Mental Power to a perfect score of one hundred points, there was still only a slim chance of success. It required a significant amount of time—ten years or even decades of training—before promotion could be achieved.
With that time, they could have potentially promoted to Second-Level Wizard instead, making it hardly worth the effort.
Therefore, the Wizard Alliance gradually phased out this method and instead chose to select the most talented apprentices through the Talent Wizard Championship, providing them with the perfect Green Water to promote them in a shorter time frame, minimizing potential future issues. This is the most cost-effective approach.
They are also the most valuable asset of the Wizard Alliance, possessing greater potential.
However, there are always some individuals who do not follow the normal path, being so extraordinary that they can advance to Formal Wizard within thirty years without using Green Water.
Such talents are rare, but in every few sessions of the Talent Wizard Championship, there will always be one or two who emerge. Although they do not compete for rankings in the Talent Wizard Championship, they are the unrecognized kings of the competition, the true number one without a title.
When everyone mentions this, the first thought is definitely not of the champion of that year's competition, but rather of that individual who advanced to Formal Wizard.
The glory of being first is completely overshadowed by him.
Even the rewards given by the Wizard Alliance are half more than those for first place.
Now that Daniel has advanced to Formal Wizard, how could Cleveland not be pleased? The academy not only reaps substantial rewards but he has also recommended a true talent to his mentor.
Daniel nodded; being a Formal Wizard is indeed a different experience from being a Wizard Apprentice. Even though he has just become a Formal Wizard, the feeling is vastly different.
He now understands why the theoretical maximum attack power of a Wizard Apprentice is 500 degrees, while any spell cast by a Formal Wizard possesses such strong power.
Although their Mental Power does not differ greatly, and due to burning Mental Power during promotion, an initial Formal Wizard may even have slightly less Mental Power—only around seventy to eighty points—the quality is entirely different.
If a Wizard Apprentice's Mental Power is merely like air, elusive and intangible with no solid foundation, then a Formal Wizard's Mental Power has already taken shape, resembling mist that can manifest in the real world.
There has been a significant improvement in quality, which is precisely why the attacks from the Formal Wizard have become more formidable.
"Junior, where are you planning to go next? Would you like to accompany me to visit the mentor? I'm sure he would welcome you."
Daniel replied somewhat strangely, "Are we going to find the mentor now? What about the rewards from the alliance?"
"You don't need to worry about that. The alliance won't shortchange you; no matter where you go, they will bring your rewards to you."
Daniel then realized that his treatment was different from that of the apprentices participating in the Talent Wizard Championship.
Those apprentices must stay in Alvis City to wait for their rewards. If they miss the time, who knows if the other party will withhold their rewards? However, he could leave freely, and his rewards would be delivered to him.
After thinking for a moment, Daniel said, "I plan to go home first. I've been away for so long; I miss my parents a bit."
Cleveland nodded. "That's not a bad idea. Now that you've become a Formal Wizard, you should indeed go home and take a look. The mentor will be at the Wizard Tower during this time. I'll send you his address, and you can visit him then."
"Thank you very much, senior."
