Bloodline Wizard's Dragon Transformation Diary

Chapter 23 Dimensions and the Central Continent, The Wizard's Talent

"But the Central Continent is also a harsh place—it's in another dimension."

There are only two ways to get to that place.

The Scarlet Wizard held up two fingers.

The first path is to become a fourth-class wizard apprentice through meditation, and then use one's own spiritual power to activate the teleportation array leading to the central continent.

A fourth-class wizard apprentice, not even a formal wizard, sounds like a very simple requirement.

In reality, in this barren place, once you become a third-class wizard apprentice, you will touch upon that mysterious boundary.

Like a shark trapped on the beach—it's incredibly difficult to take another step forward.

Therefore, the vast majority of wizard apprentices choose the second route when they go to the Central Continent.

The orthodox schools of wizardry all originated from the Central Continent.

They all have certain connections with the Central Continent. Once they become third-class wizard apprentices, they can contact the schools of thought on the Central Continent and receive guidance from the Central Continent to go there.

According to past practice, when a wizard's apprentice from a school is guided to the Central Continent, he can bring three servants with him.

The contract that the Scarlet Wizard wanted to sign with Loon was that Loon would reserve a spot for her when he was guided to the Central Continent.

"Thunder Wizard, orthodox wizards like yourself will receive resource support from their school after going to the Central Continent."

"But if you take wizards from the same school with you to the Central Continent, they will only compete with you for resources from that school after they return to their school with you."

"This is not good for your future."

"But if you bring a wild wizard like me, I will absolutely not compete with you for resources from the school."

"This will be more beneficial for your future."

"Furthermore, I can sign a contract with you to serve you for a period of time after we go to the Central Continent."

"As you know, the closer a wizard's apprentice gets to becoming a wizard, the more he should focus his energy on meditation and the study of spells."

"At this time, this wizard apprentice will definitely need a trustworthy person to handle matters outside of his training."

"And I will certainly be more trustworthy than anyone else in the Central Continent."

"Furthermore, if Wizard Thunder is willing to sign this contract with me, I will do my best to help Wizard Thunder become a third-class wizard apprentice."

"The Scarlet Wizard said, his attitude incredibly sincere."

The Central Continent is a place every wizard apprentice dreams of—its mystery is incredibly profound, and the effects of meditation there are exceptionally good.

Moreover, there is more knowledge about wizards there, more resources related to wizards, and more opportunities for wizard apprentices in the Central Continent!

Even if talent is hard to change, a wizard apprentice in this barren plane will definitely go further than in the Central Continent!

……

This is the current situation.

Central Continent.

Teleportation array.

The dense array of elements in the Scarlet Wizard's words left Loon stunned.

This is a world belonging to wizards—yet for some time now, Loon has not seen much of a trace of wizards.

He had assumed that the wizards were "keeping to themselves" to maintain their mystique...

But now, Luo Ang understands that the reason he can't see many traces of wizards is not because those wizards 'secluded themselves from the world'.

Rather, it's because the plane he's currently in is a "barren" plane, a mysterious "shallow sea," or even a "front shore."

There are very few traces of wizards in this plane!

Luo Ang closed his eyes and fell into deep thought.

To be fair, the contract proposed by the Scarlet Wizard was indeed a very good one.

However, the premise of this contract is that Loang is truly an orthodox wizard who can be guided by the Central Continent.

Koloon, is that right?

of course not!

Therefore, the contract that the Scarlet Wizard wanted to sign with Loen was fundamentally flawed.

However, directly rejecting the Scarlet Wizard is not a good option either.

"There are only three spots available for third-class wizard apprentices to travel to the Central Continent through the referral system!" Loen sighed softly.

"Three spots are hardly enough!"

With a regretful tone, Luo Ang suddenly looked up again.

"Crimson Wizard, tell me, if I don't follow the school's path, but instead become a fourth-rank wizard apprentice and open the teleportation array myself, how many people can I bring with me to the Central Continent?"

Luo Ang was lost in thought.

"A fourth-class wizard apprentice." Even the Crimson Wizard couldn't help but feel wistful. "Only a wizard of the orthodox school like you, Thunder Wizard, would dare to think about such a thing."

In the wizarding records of this plane, the last time a wizard became a fourth-class wizard apprentice and opened a teleportation array to go to the central continent was four hundred years ago.

On that occasion, a total of ten people, including the fourth-level wizard apprentice, stepped onto the teleportation array.

This means that there are nine spots for fourth-class wizard apprentices to lead people to the Central Continent.

"A fourth-class wizard apprentice?" Loen sensed his soul seed and body seed.

Eight rings of patterns have already appeared on the seed, and the ninth ring is slowly emerging and closing in...

Loon believed that it wouldn't be long before he became a second-class wizard apprentice.

In this plane's context, a second-class wizard apprentice should represent the pinnacle of power that this plane can manifest.

A fourth-rank wizard apprentice is already capable of "ascension".

The third-class wizard apprentices might be discussing with those schools of thought their desire to "ascend" through the guidance of those schools.

……

Whether it's what's said in the wizard's introduction or the old man's own diary.

Or perhaps it's the discussion between the Crimson Wizard and Loen in front of us.

It all seemed to be telling Loen that the path of a wizard is an extremely difficult one!

Let's not even talk about the fact that the old man himself doesn't have much talent.

This Scarlet Wizard must have some talent—and she has controlled the Golden Hibiscus Merchant Guild for a full seven years.

Even if she took control of the Golden Hibiscus Merchant Guild when she had just become a wizard apprentice, that would mean that she was already a first-class wizard apprentice seven years ago.

Seven years later, when Loen, who had just become a first-class wizard apprentice, faced her, he felt no pressure at all.

It is clear that this Crimson Wizard is still a first-class wizard apprentice, just like Loen.

It's easy to imagine how difficult the path of a wizard is.

But what about Loen himself?

Luo Ang sensed his own soul seed and body seed.

Eight rings of patterns have already appeared on the seed, and the ninth ring is slowly emerging and closing in...

According to the description in the Wizarding Intro, when the patterns on the seed reach ten circles, Loon can use them to activate the mystical, forming a second temporary spell slot, thus becoming a second-class wizarding apprentice.

In other words, from a first-class wizard apprentice to a second-class wizard apprentice.

During this period, Loen had already covered three-fifths of the distance.

—And this was only about ten days after Loen officially became a first-class wizard apprentice.

"So it seems that my talent is not only not bad, but actually better than I imagined?" Thinking about this comparison, Luo Ang suddenly had this realization.

"No, no, that's not right."

"That's not how it works."
