A round transparent crystal ball suspended in the air.

A faint glow emanating from within the sphere illuminates the faces in the room.

The old man's wrinkled face was filled with disbelief in surprise, and his eyes flashed with inexplicable emotion.

The calm young man with an indifferent expression, his hands were on top of the crystal ball, and the amount of radiant power that faintly emanated from his palm was connected to the crystal ball.

A large bear head, glancing at the glow of the crystal ball, let out a low roar, and then re-grasped his forepaw, cleaning the food debris from between his fingers.

"It's unbelievable! it's only time to get to a third-level apprentice, and your teacher will be proud of you!" the old man applauded excitedly, but the faint hiss of his words showed that his old wounds had not yet healed.

Slowly withdrew, Raymond was very modest in response to the old man's praise. "Dean Bhammer has passed the award, and the Venerable Master has always said that my growth is too slow, and I need to come out and see more. ”

He shook his hand with some emotion, stretched out his hand to put away the suspended crystal ball, and under the snap of the old man's fingers, the whole room was bright again.

"At the age of fifteen, I touched the threshold of the third-level apprentice, your teacher's strength is unfathomable, and the gap is too big......" said with emotion, and when his eyes skimmed the black-maned bear in the corner, Dean Bhamer's face became a little ugly.

As if sensing the old man's gaze, the black-maned bear, who was licking the bear's paws, raised his head at dusk and roared at Dean Palmer.

The roar that suddenly echoed in the room made Dean Bhammer's face look ugly, and he stumbled to his feet before he regained his footing, and then smiled bitterly.

Raymond, who frowned, let out a bear-like roar from his throat, and the black-maned bear with his head held high was crawling on the ground again.

Expected that Blackmane would react when he saw Dean Bhammer, but Raymond didn't expect that in Blackmane's memory, the hatred for Dean Bhammer would be so deep that when he came to the Black River Valley Academy, he almost rushed up and killed Dean Bhammer.

Fortunately, under Raymond's forced drinking, the black-maned bear who had eaten his food for more than half a year also knew the consequences of provoking Raymond, but its low roar threats from time to time still made the people in the Black River Valley Academy very frightened.

The Black River Valley Academy, a complex of buildings hidden in the mountains, somewhat resembles the monastery in Raymond's memories of his previous life.

The towering walls, the arrow towers at the four corners are more than ten meters above the wall, and the vast space inside the wall, except for a small castle, is a low hut built along the wall.

Originally, the Black River Valley Wizard Academy in Raymond's understanding should be a large and magnificent complex of buildings, but when he came here and saw everything in front of him, Raymond was still disappointed.

It claims to be the academy, but in fact, in addition to Dean Bhammer, there are only his assistant, the first-level apprentice Orin, and the three teachers who have reached the second-level apprenticeship, even if they form the academy's teaching team.

And all the students combined, there are only more than fifty, and the teenagers who have reached the peak of first-level apprenticeship are even diligent students who have achieved success in their studies and deserve to be rewarded.

Now that he has been personally tested by Dean Bhammer, Raymond's strength is close to the intermediate level of the second-level wizard apprentice, generally speaking, as long as he is not too lazy, then after a year, Raymond can try to break through the bottleneck of the third-level apprentice.

Feeling the surprise of Raymond's strength, Dean Bhammer, who was a little shaky when he walked, carefully bypassed the place occupied by the black-maned bear, and took Raymond out of the testing room on the third floor of the castle, and explained with emotion:

"Raymond, because my assistant Orin has been in the academy for more than thirty years, and he has never seen a young second-level apprentice like you, so I have offended many before, please bear with me. ”

Smiling, Raymond, beckoning the blackmaned bear to follow, did not comment on it.

If it weren't for the fact that if he wanted to board the ships of other wizarding continents, he had to be reported in advance by Dean Bhammer, otherwise Raymond would have enough confidence to board the ship directly.

Because the humanoid Yīn Shadow Helium in the ancient castle had told him that these sea ships that specialized in transporting potential wizard apprentices had to be reported in advance by the local academies before they could be allowed to board the ships.

In addition, in order to protect these potential apprentices from being plundered or harmed by dark wizards, the West Coast will also keep the ship's information confidential before officially boarding the ship.

Therefore, when the time is close to boarding the ship, all potential wizard apprentices must go to the nearby wizard academy to register and gather, and finally be escorted on board by the instructors of the academy.

Back then, Helium of the Tori family was unwilling to leave her hometown and go to other continents where there were many wizards, so she stayed in her family's territory.

But for Helium, her choice back then may well have been a grave mistake.

Thinking of what Haylim said, Raymond brought up his doubts after he followed Dean Palmer to his office.

Under Dean Bmer's explanation, the continent on the west coast also had a prosperous era of wizards, but with the outbreak of wars between wizards and the gradual lack of resources needed by wizards, there are fewer and fewer humans with wizard blood on this continent.

Therefore, after many wizarding organizations withdrew from this continent, this became an area where dark wizards could infiltrate, and it is said that thousands of years ago, there was an evil dark wizard who almost turned all the humans on this continent into evil puppets.

Therefore, the powerful wizards born from this continent have set the rules, all those who have wizard blood and want to embark on the path of wizards, as long as they can pass the test of the wizarding academy and reach the most basic level of apprenticeship, they can have the qualification to continue their studies on other continents.

Standing at the window of the academy's zhōngyāng castle, Raymond listened to Dean Bhammer's introduction with the ears of the black-maned bear, and Raymond had no doubt about the boarding qualifications in three months.

However, Dean Palmer, who explained in more detail than the humanoid Yīn Shadow Helium, solemnly warned Raymond at the end that the number of these wizard apprentices who board the ship every three years is said to be quite rare.

In addition, these teenagers with wizard blood who boarded the ship rarely came back again.

The scarcity of wizard resources on the West Coast has led to the thinning of wizard blood, but the same benefit is that it is very safe.

A second-level wizard apprentice can have great power on the West Coast, and enjoy a luxurious life that ordinary people envy.

But if you board a ship bound for another continent, you may well be embarking on a road of no return!
