I Got 999 Level With One Cut

She stared at her palm and loosened her grip.    

So this was what an ordinary person was like? They longed for power, so they struggled to become stronger step by step.    

Shu Hsingnan was already one of the lucky ones. With the help of an Eighth Grade Titled Devil Instructor, even if her talent was not good, it's almost guaranteed to become one of the most powerful people on the continent. For such a powerful person, there were too many ways to turn an ordinary magic apprentice into a genius. This was also why Riko never intended to give Shu Hsingnan a bottle of Baptism Potion from the beginning to the end, even if that thing would not have any side effects on Shu Hsingnan who was a girl to begin with.    

After Shu Hsingnan used the Baptism Potion, the only thing that improved was her talent. And that mysterious expert could also change her battle experience, vision, and mentality.    

After all, that was an Eighth Grade Titled Devil Instructor.    

Even if thousands of years had passed since his era, countless new magic theories had emerged or were overturned. However, Eighth Grade Titled Devil Instructor was an Eighth Grade Titled Devil Instructor in any era. In his eyes, the theories that low-level mages relied on were almost non-essential. Even if the formulas that he had believed in for a long time were wrong, he was already so powerful. He could completely rely on his own casting techniques to make up for the theoretical flaws. Even a mage who had reached the Ninth Rank Level 8 might have already discovered that the theories most people believed in might have signs of error. It was just that he did not spend time to prove it.    

"Professor Heather Gava, do you have anything else?"    

"Nothing."    

Riko woke up from her daze. She tilted her head and answered softly.    

"There's still a month until the first midterm exam this year. Try not to be eliminated."    

Riko did not say anything to make Shu Hsingnan work harder.    

Because Shu Hsingnan was already working hard enough.    

Shu Hsingnan smiled slightly and looked very confident.    

"Okay!"    

For the next month, everything seemed to be normal.    

However, something that happened on campus caused a huge sensation.    

Just a few days after Shu Hsingnan and Riko had that late night conversation, she no longer sold grilled fish.    

Basically, everyone was used to this kind of grilled fish stall that would appear at the entrance of the canteen every day after school. Moreover, because the grilled fish tasted good, the grilled fish was quite popular. Riko had gone to eat it a few times. One day, the students realized that there was nothing behind the table. The sign with the price tag also disappeared.    

In addition, Riko also discovered a detail.    

It was about that time when a green jade bracelet appeared on Shu Hsingnan's wrist. There was a light golden magic array engraved on it, and it emitted a weak spatial element fluctuation.    

She could basically confirm that this was a magic tool for storage, just like the magic robe Elsa gave Riko back then.    

It had to be said that the professor uniform of RMI was much better looking than that thing.    

However, a magic tool for storage was not cheap, even if it only had a few cubic meters of space. In addition, she was originally selling grilled fish to earn money, but now she suddenly stopped selling grilled fish. This kind of thing already explained a result. Shu Hsingnan seemed to have done something, and recently she suddenly became rich overnight.    

During that period of time, she broke through to the Level 5 magic apprentice. Although her strength was still far behind the average standard of the first grade students, at least she had slightly closed the gap between them.    

Curiosity drove the gray-haired girl to one day arrange an invisible flying Eye of the Sorcerer after school. The Eye of the Sorcerer followed Shu Hsingnan to a small forest. Riko saw that she took out a large pile of refining equipment from the jade bracelet. Under the guidance of a transparent white-bearded old man, she made a bottle of Life Returning Potion.    

Riko felt that it was most likely because of the mysterious super expert who attached himself to Shu Hsingnan that decided to speed up his nurturing of her.    

Preparing medicine to accumulate wealth should only be the first step.    

On the eve of the first semester's midterm exam, Shu Hsingnan successfully reached Level Six magic apprentice.    

Other than her, her classmates also made some progress.    

Angarmarin would soon become a Third Rank beginner wizard. Dorothy also became a second grade apprentice wizard...    

Loli Merlin stayed in the central tower for three months, and as she wished, she rose from a Rank 8 Level 0 to a Rank 8 Level 1. That night, she went into the city with Riko and Virna to drink. In the end, she was drunk. Her face was red. She pestered Virna for the whole night.    

In the afternoon two days before the midterm exam.    

Riko held the chalk but did not write anything. She faced the students with her back facing the blackboard.    

Out of the thirty odd students, there was no one who could not accept her.    

In addition to the normal incantations, the gray-haired girl even taught her students a lot of extra knowledge. While the others were still thinking about how to make up the fireball skill Spell that suited them, the gray-haired girl's students had already started learning how to jump ranks to cast Third Rank spells - the ice spear, and the effect of using the featherfall skill to cast the levitation skill...    

"The rules for the midterm exam are actually very simple. You need to fight one on one. In a total of nine matches, the students with the worst performance will most likely be unfortunately asked to leave the academy..."    

Riko noticed that Shu Hsingnan's eyes flashed for an instant before being replaced with determination, just like the first time the gray-haired girl faced her.    

"Before the midterm exam begins, you all still have two days of vacation. During this period of time, you do not have classes, so please prepare for the exam."
