Gravity Mage with Level-Up System

Chapter 349: News about the Special Trial

From MCʼs perspective:

After having the food, I left the dining hall and strolled toward the Sub-Taboo Hall. Suddenly I feel two prying gazes on me.

”Who is it?” I said in my heart, while I gaze around my surroundings. Then after confirming no trouble, I walked toward the Hall.

After a few minutes, I arrived in front of the Hall. As usual, I verified my identity before walking into the room.

Meanwhile, Eugene Beard and Roberto Noel appeared suddenly in front of the Hall. Seeing the closed Hall, their expressions turned ugly.

”See, I told you. He doesnʼt go anywhere apart from the library and the Sub-Taboo Hall,” Eugene Beard said in a cold tone.

Roberto Noel frowned. He feels Vincent Carey is a tortoise. He didnʼt step outside his safe zone.

Suddenly, Roberto Noel recalled something. ”I heard, Clifton Cox, is looking for an official challenge against Vincent Carey. But he is just waiting for the core membersʼ signal,” He said.

If someone was already taking initiative, they shouldnʼt waste their breath.

Eugene Beard shook his head. ”Our movements were already exposed. If we donʼt do anything, we will face the same ridicule as the Mechanical Hall,” He feared in his heart.

Roberto Noelʼs face darkened remembering Mechanical Hallʼs behavior right after Vincentʼs Battle Tower performance.

”What to do? We canʼt wait here for him to show up,” Eugene Beard said in a dissatisfied tone.

Roberto Noel replied, ”Letʼs go, we canʼt act against him inside the academy.”

Right after, two of them left the Hall.

Meanwhile, I sat on the sofa boringly. There was no reply from Senior Carolina. She might be on her mission.

Then I began to browse some news online. Soon the news about Dragon City popped up on the front page.

I see an image showing the death and destruction of the Treasure Pavilion. The damaged glass building and aftermath of those magical spell attacks can be seen in the image.

Then I started to read further news. After a few minutes, a quick glint flashes in my eyes. Right after, I left. The people from the government had visited that place.

”Why so slow response?” I said in my heart. But I know it is not that simple. Some shady thing was happening. How come the government is not aware of such intrusion?

But I feel glad that I didnʼt stick into that whirlpool. Next time choosing a mission, I should be more careful.

Then I logged into the academy site to see the updates. Soon in my inbox, I see several unread messages.

Opening it, the first thing that caught my attention was the message from Mentor Lion. I quickly opened it to read the message.

[Special Trial: No.3]

[The magic forest - A task will be given to candidates to collect resources inside the magic forest. After the trial, the points will be calculated based on the mission completion.]

[Time: Day after Tomorrow, 10 A.M]

My eyes gleamed with a twinkle. This is what Senior Carolina exactly said. The magic forest was nothing but a resource point of our academy.

Normally, wizards go inside to collect the resources. And the content of the special trial is also the same. But on the surface, it looks easy but I know there must be some difficulty behind it.

Now that I know the Trial day. All I can do now is to prepare. After gaining some clarity, I decided to go to the library to spend some time there by reading books.

I want to know about the magic forest. It would be better if there was a book about the forest in the library.

On the other hand, Clifton Cox received a green signal from his seniors. A few days ago, he shared his opinion with seniors, the core members of Bloodline Hall.

But none of them gave a direct reply. Now that he receives a green signal from the core members. Which means he can issue a challenge to Vincent without any worry.

But this thing must have been done through an official process. He canʼt independently post a challenge on an academy site like the braindead Mechanical Hall wizards.

Otherwise, people wonʼt take him seriously. Thinking about those guys from the Beast Hall and Transformation Hall yet to do something.

He decided to start the process quicker. The management of the Bloodline Hall should issue a challenge against the Sub-Taboo Hall.

Time passed,

Soon Bloodline Hall issued an official challenge post. Which sent a shock wave across the 12 Halls. The news came out of the blue.

Nobody would have expected a sudden challenge post from Bloodline Hall.

The news started to spread like wildfire. Within minutes, the academyʼs site is filled with a lot of posts. There is no official date for the challenge.

Because the Sub-Taboo Hall has yet to accept the challenge post. Only after that, the official date will be announced.

Meanwhile, Iʼm busy going through the books related to the magic forest. But the few wizards who were studying in the library were keeping an eye on me.

I thought these people might be lackeys of certain wizards. But soon I realized something was wrong because my communication watch was being bombarded with a lot of notifications.

Seeing that I carefully placed the old book on the table before reading the notification. But the next second, my eyes flickered with a cold glint.

”Official Challenge?” I said in my heart. Then I further read the message to understand it fully. So itʼs not an independent duel challenge from Clifton Cox.

But rather the Bloodline Hall itself issued a challenge against the Sub-Taboo Hall. A gloomy glint flashes in my eyes. Before coming here, I thought everything was going smoothly.

To think the Bloodline Hall is staring at me all this time. I couldnʼt help but feel uncomfortable.

I donʼt know what are the consequences ahead if I lose the challenge. I know itʼs impossible to lose. But I still feel a lot of things riding on this challenge. One Hall is issuing a challenge against another. There will be some stakes.

After gaining some clarity, I sighed inwardly. If I stay here any longer, the library will be swarmed with wizards.

Then after placing the books back on the rack. I quickly left the library and walked toward the dorm.

Several minutes later,

I came back to my room. I massaged both sides of my time before laying on the bed comfortably.

”Sigh”

It would be better if Sister Carolina is here. She might know more about this official challenge.

”Clifton Cox,” I mumbled under my breath. I donʼt know if this person is foolish or not. I rank 1st position in the Battle Tower Ranking.

Which talks about my strength indirectly. But this bloodline wizard still dared to confront me. Then suddenly I realized something.

Unlike other wizards, the bloodline wizards got added advantage. Their bloodline power provides them with a boost in attributes. So their overall power will skyrocket.

”No wonder,” I muttered to myself. Now I understand where this guyʼs confidence comes from. But itʼs a pity, he doesnʼt know about my overpowered gravity magic.

If that guy learns about the Treasure Pavilionʼs incident fully. Where I had killed most of the level-4 wizards. I think he will change his opinion very quickly.

Then pushing these thoughts behind my mind. I decided to continue to read the books.

...

The following day,

I woke up early. After getting freshened up, I started my meditation. As I started to run the gravity mental method, the gray color mana particles came close to me.

When the energies entered my body, I started to guide them according to the mental method. After circulation, the purified mana settled down in my dantian.

Time passed in a blink of an eye,

I opened my eyes three hours later. Suddenly, I feel a surge of energy in my mana core. Like I have crossed some threshold.

”System, show my status panel,” I said to the system.

A wide status panel appeared in front of my eye. My eyes scanned the details immediately. The core progression rate immediately attracted my attention. The progression beyond 50% is good news.

Then after going through the other details. I closed the status panel.
