I know what you all try to do, there is a reason why I said you are allowed to pick one mana circulation technique, and there was a reason when I never stopped you because it is close to impossible to learn more than one mana technique, but if you actually were able to you would be classified as a monster class genius because those that do are able to develope twice as much for every time they cultivate"hearing this most of the younger generation went back to read properly and find the one that suited them the most.but when Alec heard this he blinked realising he just did learn two, he decided to keep this a secret and maybe use it to his advantage.

The next day, Alec woke up feeling incredibly refreshed, more than he had ever felt before.As he looked down, he was surprised to see himself still in a meditative position, He must have fallen asleep while practicing his double mana circulation techniques, and it seemed to have a positive effect on him.Stretching his body and letting out a big yawn, he noticed that the golem he had created the day before was still standing in a defensive position, ready to protect him from any potential danger.Alec admired the intelligence of his newly crafted golem, impressed by its ability to stay vigilant even without his command.With a nod of approval, he stood up and began making his way towards the Gordon family training ground.He had heard that all the younger generations of the family were going to be taught basic combat techniques, regardless of their interest in the Mage path they decided to follow.The Gordon clan believed in giving everyone a chance to protect themselves, especially w

After dismissing the other kids to continue their training, only Arthur remained by Alec's side. Curiously, Arthur asked, "So, what's this behemoth's name?" hoping for a cool and impressive answer.However, he could practically see question marks hovering over Alec's head, indicating his lack of a name for the golem.Arthur couldn't help but express his disbelief, saying, "Wait, don't tell me you haven't named this incredible golem yet, It's obvious that it holds a special significance since it's your very first one."Alec admitted with a sheepish smile, "Oh, I never really thought that far ahead." As he stared at the towering golem, he pondered what to call it.Suddenly, with a bright look on his face, Alec turned to Arthur and exclaimed, "What about 'fatty'?"Arthur's expression clearly reflected his confusion as if to say, "What on earth is wrong with your sense of naming?"Trying to offer an alternative, Arthur suggested,"How about 'Titan'?

Two weeks had passed since Alec's grandfather discovered his mage abilities, He was now hailed as the prodigy of the Gordon family, surpassing the other dual element kids who had taken a whole week to reach Tier 1 mage status. The younger generation of the family was showing promise, with numerous young mages emerging.While some of the new mages grew complacent, taking a break from their training, Alec remained diligent. Not a single day went by where he did not dedicate himself to his combat training during the day and honing his golem-making skills at night. To acknowledge his achievements, his grandfather bestowed upon him a space pouch as a gift, though Alec suspected it was just another indulgence from the old man.Alec's hard work and dedication during training paid off handsomely, His basic combat skills soared to level five, a remarkable accomplishment in such a short span of time.[Basic combat skills -lvl 5( 45/500)]He also improved his golem creation skill and was now a

"Move to the south gate quickly," the Patriarch instructed as the clan members closed in on the central gate.The Gordons Clan members made a slight turn and hurried over, even Alec was surprised to see his grandfather waiting there for them.Up until now, Alec hadn't realized that he wasn't the one leading the charge when they left the family compound. But now, as he calmed down and thought about it, he realized that the old man must have been in a meeting with the City Lord and other powerful family leaders in the city, And It seems they must have agreed upon having the Gordon family protecting the weaker South gate.The Gordon family members arrived at the gate swiftly, climbing up and spreading around the walls to cover any gaps, ensuring that the zombies wouldn't exploit any openings.They allowed the younger generation of the Gordon family to stay behind, watching their backs as they fought off the zombies.The patriarch levitated in the air, observing, as some of the higher-r

After witnessing the impressive display of strength by Titan, he saw him move swiftly to retrieve his trusted weapon - a spiky mace that seemingly materialized from the very earth itself.It appeared to be far sturdier than any steel weapons employed by the Gordins family, indicating that Alec had taken great care in imbuing it with an abundance of mana during its creation.This, coupled with the equally formidable shield he had fashioned, made them the ultimate tools for warfare.It was no wonder the mace effortlessly decimated the zombie's head, Pleased with his handiwork, Alec nodded approvingly, his gaze fixed once again on the magnificent weapon.[ wrath spike mace ]Weapon lvl : 5( upgrade golem rank to upgrade)+9 strength+5 speed+1 enduranceA sudden realization dawned on him - he possessed the ability to enhance Titan's mace with his own mana.It was an extraordinary feat, one that seemed exclusive to him, as he had never witnessed anyone else perform such a task.If others

Finally, he understood how they could awaken their mastery of weapons, All it took was continuous usage of the weapon in battle, eventually leading to the awakening of the weapon mastery.In the case of Spearmanship, Alec attributed their quick progress to the fact that many golems were already using it. This gave them an advantage over Titan, who had previously used a different weapon, However, this didn't matter much since Titan had already learned the skill. As long as he continued using his mace, he would keep improving himself.Alec decided to test his theory, With a mana pool of around 40 points, he created two new spears and focused on improving their strength and agility.

The moment Alec laid eyes on the mage who had arrived, he exhaled in relief, finally, someone familiar was here, and this humiliating ordeal was about to end.“We greet Sir Steven. This—” the five city guards greeted in unison, with the lead guard attempting to explain the situation, however, Steven simply raised his hand, cutting him off before he could say more.“You can all leave now. I’ll handle this from here,” Steven ordered, motioning for Alec and his group to follow him.“Welcome back home,” Steven said as they walked through the city hall’s huge compound, Alec and his companions trailing behind. With a city guardian escorting them, no other city guards dared to stop or challenge them until they reached the city hall gates.“Steven, I’ll admit it’s good to see you doing well, you’ve even managed to become a city guardian, that’s impressive but I still don’t understand why that guard treated me so poorly,” Alec said, narrowing his eyes at Steven.Out of curiosity, Alec attemp
Lil Trouble
Alec knew he needed to act quickly, the only reason he had agreed to help the academy with the pills in the first place was that he felt cornered by the situation, a pit he had unwittingly dug for himself. However, upon reflection, he realized that the deal wasn’t as bad as it initially seemed, in fact, he stood to gain more than the academy from the arrangement.Though Alec was still learning how things operated in this world, but he had quickly grasped the scarcity of resources that were easily accessible to him due to the amulet. It made him appreciate the value of his unique position, and he couldn’t help but feel a sense of gratitude toward the Ancient Primordial Tree in his amulet space, if he could, he would have entered the space right then and kissed it for its endless blessings.While the academy would receive only pills, Alec would walk away with the larger share of the benefits: pills, random spell cards, memory orbs, and occasional healing pills. Initially, the memo
A Deal With The Academy.
Alec and the Dean made their way toward the highest peak in the mountains, this peak, is said to house only the old Dean and his loyal retainers, and It stood far above the others, offering an ethereal view as it was shrouded in clouds that seemed to guard its serenity.When they landed, Alec was surprised to see two figures already waiting there at the front yard for them.“Old man Alderic, what are you doing here?” Alec called out immediately, recognizing one of the few High Rank mages he truly respected, among the academy’s powerful figures, Alderic stood out as someone Alec felt gratitude toward. Before Alec and his group ventured into the Second Dimension for the first time, Alderic had offered invaluable advice and provided them with a map that revealed hidden truths about the dimension, knowledge they wouldn’t have gained by simply following an adventure group. That gesture had been instrumental in their survival during their first journey into the Abyss.“Hahaha... You’ve
Out Of Excuses.
“Why did you accept such terms? It’s clear we could have pushed the city hall into a corner, negotiated a better deal, and reduced the number of mages we have to send for such a gruesome battle, you know we can’t afford to lose so many of our mages in a meaningless war like this,” the Grand Elder said, his voice sharp as the ground beside him cracked open, revealing the patriarch emerging from below.“I understand your concerns,” the patriarch replied calmly, dusting off his robes, “but you must remember, we had already decided to offer our support, why exploit the situation unnecessarily? Besides, by participating, we gain proximity to the high rank mages present, that gives us an opportunity to discern which of them might truly be connected to the attack on the outer court.”“Oh, don’t misunderstand me, I have no intention of sending you into the frontlines of the Blood Moon War.” The Grand Elder interjected with a sly grin. The patriarch raised an eyebrow in surprise, prompting
The Legendary Fox.
Gordons’ Inner CompoundAs the city lord reached the gates of the inner yard, he was momentarily delayed before a mage from the Gordons clan arrived to escort him inside, the mage led him to an open room where the Grand Elder was already seated, with a sly smile on his face.“And here I was, thinking my old friend would be the one entertaining me, after years of him inviting me to his home, I finally decided to visit!” the city lord said with a teasing tone as he took the seat opposite the Grand Elder. The Grand Elder chuckled politely but replied with an edge, “To be honest, even you must realize that negotiating with me is far better than dealing with my brother directly.” His tone was courteous, yet the underlying warning was unmistakable, a reminder of where the city lord currently stood with the Gordons clan.The Grand Elder’s words drew a hearty laugh from the city lord, who quickly regained his composure and locked eyes with him. “You’re absolutely right, speaking with a

“Can I begin now?” Lucas asked, snapping Duran out of his trance, the instructor had been so focused on Alec that he forgot to start the trial.It wasn’t entirely Duran’s fault; after checking Lucas and confirming he was at the High Tier 5 Mage Realm, curiosity compelled him to use his Spirit Eyes to analyse Alec as well, however, what he discovered left him stunned, Alec had erected a circular mental shield around himself, preventing any external observation of his realm.This development was shocking to Duran, as such a feat was something even most low Tier 6 Mages struggled to achieve, Typically, mages only began cultivating their mental abilities upon entering Tier 6 Mage realm, using specialized facilities like the Mental Cultivation Building at the War God Mage Academy.Mental cultivation was notoriously slow and gruelling, requiring years of effort even with advanced resources, that is why mages of less privilege clans ended up needing years before they could enter the High ran

The moment Emma Gordon stepped onto the stage, she began rotating her small fists, and building momentum as her right fist became coated in a shimmering layer of Qi energy. Her exaggerated movements and energetic display caused Duran to shake his head slightly, he couldn’t help but feel she might fumble due to the excess energy she seemed to be wasting.“Begin!” he commanded.The instant the order was given, Emma’s fist shot forward with blinding speed, moving even faster than her brother’s earlier strike.Boom!Her small fist slammed into the testing stone, sending a loud, reverberating noise across the arena, the white light surged upward, quickly passing the three bars, breaking into the fourth, and finally stopping at the midpoint.“Mid Fourth Bar. Passed,” Duran announced, his voice steady despite his astonishment.The crowd of mages erupted into murmurs and whispers.“Another mid-fourth bar? The Gordons are completely dominating this test, how are the rest of us supposed to c
1st Test 4.
With so many mages rushing to the stage to get tested before, Alec had instructed his team to hold back, preferring to let others show off first, he didn’t want his team stepping up too soon.And after nearly an hour of testing and eliminations, the number of mages waiting to be tested had dwindled to a few hundred, at that moment, Alec decided it was time for his team to finally make their move.Among the remaining mages, there were three Tier 4 mages from high tier clans which had decided to stay behind at the academy and had seized this opportunity to showcase their prowess. They became the first to light up the fourth bar, drawing gasps of awe from the crowd.While Alec might seem like a straightforward person, those who truly knew him like Arthur and Brandon understood that beneath his composed exterior lay a cunning, often shameless strategist. Alec always sought control over any situation despite never admitting to it, and his penchant for dramatic flair had clearly rubbed
1st Test 3.
The student, determined to make the most of his remaining chances, decided to apply the lesson from his earlier failure, this time, he clenched his fists without channelling any mana. The crowd, particularly those who believed themselves to be on the same level as the mage, watched intently, as none of them wanted to miss even the slightest detail, hoping to glean some insight for his own attempts. “Ahhh!” The mage roared, his fist flying toward the towering black monolith, a louder, more resounding thud echoed as his punch connected. All eyes followed the white light rising up the center of the stone, it surged past the peak of the second bar, filling the third completely. The light moved steadily upward, reaching close to the peak of the third bar before faltering and settling just shy of it. “Third bar, high rank, not enough. You’ve got one last chance, don’t be a disappointment,” Instructor Duran said from the side, his words toeing the line between encouragement and mock
