Andrew walked in the direction of Magical Apprentice Hall peacefully. Perhaps young people would feel a little proud and complacent when their talents had grown so much. But he, who was already a hundred years old, knew that staying calm in all circumstances was the most essential quality.
When he reached Magical Apprentice Hall, he coincidentally met an acquaintance, the director of Magical Apprentice Hall, Lucas Henderson.
Lucas was holding the hand of a child, and it seemed that he was heading to Seminary.
He was polite when he saw Andrew, “Andrew, are you here to test your power? Alas, you did suffer in this accidental misfortune.” He shook his head as he said.
Andrew was not in the mood to exchange pleasantries at the moment. He just nodded his head and walked into Magical Apprentice Hall.
The child beside Lucas tilted his head. Those who were in contact with the authorities all knew that Andrew was degraded to a magic apprentice.
“Didn’t Grandpa Andrew…” The boy was confused.
Lucas was also a little puzzled.
‘Yes, Andrew’s magical power and spiritual strength are still escaping.’
‘In a few days, he won’t even be able to maintain his magical apprentice status. Why did he still come here?’
Lucas pondered.
He decided to send his grandson to school first and then went to see what Andrew would do.
On the other side, Andrew checked in with his golden card. Then he walked into the training grounds of Magical Apprentice Hall.
The furnishings of the equipment was somewhat similar to the game hall in his previous world. There were many machines equipped with LCD screens, and beside each machine was a helmet-like device that looked like VR equipment.
Andrew casually walked to a machine, pulled out a chair, and sat on it. He put on the helmet, and instantly, a projected image appeared in front of him.
“Please choose the test item.”
Although the voice asked him to make a choice, in fact, Andrew only had one option—Spiritual Structure Resistance Test.
The principle of the test was quite simple and crude. Different sources of spiritual power would counteract each other. When the spiritual structure was broken, one could calculate the value of his spiritual power through the intensity of the spiritual impact.
The spiritual power applied in the test of Magical Apprentice Hall was specially processed. And even if broken in the test, one’s spiritual structure could recover quickly.
It was still early. At this time, there was no one else in the hall, and the hall seemed a little empty.
‘My diamond spiritual structure should be a little stronger than the ordinary spiritual structure.’
‘I’ll adjust it to its maximum power.’
A hint of determination flashed across Andrew’s eyes.
He quietly set the spiritual impact strength test to the maximum—2999 paz.
Paz was the name of a supreme mage about seven hundred years ago. He invented the elemental conversion law and accurately measured the spiritual strength of the different levels of mages’.
Hence, the unit of spiritual strength was named after him. 2999 paz was the upper limit of spiritual strength that an intermediate mage could reach when using the pentagram spiritual structure which was the most widely used.
‘I don’t know if I can bear it,’ Andrew thought nervously.
The next second, he felt a force from the helmet rushing into his consciousness.
The power was mediocre. His diamond-structured solid spiritual energy did not even budge an inch.
‘Is this the beginning?’
Andrew thought, then gritted his teeth and prepared to endure the stronger impact.
“Hmm…hmm??”
After waiting for a long time, he didn’t feel anything. He looked at the screen and saw the words—The test ended. He was a little confused.
‘Maybe…there’s something wrong with this machine.’
Andrew thought hesitantly, so he tried on more than ten machines in succession.
Then, he came to an unbelievable conclusion.
“This diamond spiritual structure of mine is so solid that even an intermediate mage’s full-force impact can’t destroy it.”
‘What a surprise.’
Andrew was lost in thought.
He was already so strong just by establishing his spiritual structure. It was estimated that he would be more powerful after he grasped more magic in the future!
He was ecstatic and even looked much younger.
