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 with the top academy recruitment approaching.

Noticing the golem following him without any instruction, Alec turned back and said

"Wait for me here."

To his surprise, the golem actually obeyed and stayed in place.

Smirking at this detail, he gestured for it to follow him, and continued on his way to the training ground.

As Alec and his golem passed they attracted attention from everyone they passed, people couldn't help but be amazed.

Seeing Alec with a golem by his side was surprising enough, but the constant release of aura from his body, indicating his recent breakthrough to becoming a tier 1 mage, and this left people in awe.

"Isn't that the grandson of the patriarch?"

"Yes, it is. It seems he has finally been promoted to the tier 1 mage realm."

"What were you expecting?, Becoming the family heir is no easy task."

"Absolutely, Our young master is a true genius."

Various comments and discussion erupted as others talked about Alec's excellence.

Despite having been scorned in the past, being seen as illegitimate by many, Alec knew that strength was what truly mattered.

His two high affinities and being the first among the younger generations to break through to the tier 1 mage realm only served to highlight his remarkable talents even more.

As Alec entered the training hall, he noticed that many Gordon family members had already begun their training.

He blamed himself for meditating so late, resulting in him waking up later than usual.

However, he wasn't bothered by it, Even if the situation were to repeat itself, he would still choose to prioritize training over sleep.

His excitement and thirst to learn more about mana had led him to meditate overnight and conduct numerous experiments with golems.

The exhaustion from depleting his mana only to start meditating again was the reason he had fallen asleep in a meditative position.

Alec had been an amateur in golem-making just last night, but now after a lot of trials and error he could be said to have progressed to the level of a beginner golem master.

As he entered the training ground, all eyes turned to him, wide with surprise and disbelief at the aura he was emitting.

The sheer amount of energy waves he was releasing made it evident to everyone present that he had become a tier 1 mage.

And with the golem standing behind him, exuding the same aura, it only solidified their belief that he had truly entered the realm of mages.

It was common knowledge that one could not maintain a summoned golem for long without a tier 1 mage's mana pool.

This display of power further cemented Alec's newfound status.

"How did he become a tier 1 mage overnight?!" exclaimed one onlooker.

"See? Only the strongest among the younger generations can be the leader," remarked another.

"I knew it. The moment he was chosen, I could tell he was special," added someone else.

"I feel like that golem could crush me, It looks much sturdier than the golem a first-timer should be able to craft " one of the children from the younger generation voiced their thoughts.

Even Arthur, who had initially claimed that he would protect Alec before he could obtain a powerful golem, was taken aback when he saw the golem standing behind Alec.

He laughed at his past self for underestimating Alec's abilities, looking at Alec's golem, he was certain that he wouldn't stand a chance against that massive mound of clay.

Even the golem's intimidating red eyes sent shivers down Arthur's spine.

Arthur walked up to Alec and placed a hand on his shoulder and The golem raised it's mace in a threatening position, ready to strike at any moment.

But Alec simply waved his hand, and the golem seemed to understand his intentions, It lowered its mace back down.

Arthur's lips trembled and he felt cold shivers running down his neck, all this was a testament to the fear he felt when the bulky yet sturdy golem raised its hand.

He felt helpless against the impending strike, even before the strike was made.

"Wow, you've gotten much stronger, brother.

You have to take care of me in the future," Arthur mumbled, while comically clinging onto Alec's legs.

The golem scratched its head, finding Arthur's behavior rather peculiar, despite its intelligence.

Meanwhile, the seven enforcers from the Gordon family, responsible for combat training, were astounded by Alec's first golem.

"Hmm, I believe that golem is of uncommon rank, What a genuis!, To be able to craft an uncommon rank golem so fast, this boy must be a golem genius,"

one of the elders remarked to himself, unaware of his mistake, if he had known that it was the same rank as the patriarch's boss golems.

he might have referred to Alec as a monster rather than a genius.

The entire younger generation gathered around Alec, accepting him as one of their own.

They bombarded him with questions about cultivation, recognizing his knowledge and expertise.

Inside, Alec grinned, knowing that this was what his grandfather had always wanted for him – to connect with the younger generations at an early stage.

After all, if he was going to lead them in the future, it was better to establish a friendship now while they were still young.

Alec did his best to answer every question thrown at him, despite considering himself a novice in cultivation.

His countenance transformed into that of a battle-crazed warrior, although every strike he made was calculated and precise. As his spear skills grew more fluid with each use, Alec realized that relying on the system to upload the skills into his mind wasn't enough to become truly skilled—it required practice and experience."Ah, kill!" Alec shouted, charging towards the zombies with his spear instead of waiting for them to come within piercing range. Swinging, slashing, and even using the bottom of the spear to push back the encroaching undead, creating enough space to strike them down.

    All the second-year students were also present, drawn by the rumours and speculations surrounding the new first-year class, ever since the new batch arrived, whispers had circulated that some of the first-years were stronger than their seniors. Instructors even frequently used the first-years as examples during lectures for them, which had bruised the egos of a few second-years who couldn’t accept the idea of being surpassed by their juniors. This growing rivalry meant most of the second-years came to observe the tests, eager to see if the rumours were true. The exams functioned as a grading system, any first-year mage who surpassed the hallmark set by the first two tests would be allowed to advance to second-year classes ahead of schedule.

What truly broke the spirits of the academy’s executive members, however, was the Northern Kingdom king’s final decision to withdraw all support for the academy, the normal shares they usually receives before has been cancelled, the new Dean interpreted this as a blatant show of power, an attempt to subjugate the War God Mage Academy and keep it in check so they don’t go out of line. In response to this injustice, a long silent voice emerged, the retired old Dean, who had been in self imposed seclusion for years, sent an urgent message to the academy’s top instructors, in fact to call it a message would be an understatement, it was more of an order. The old Dean had demanded that all senior students with no link to any cla

    It had been a week since the blood moon battle, yet the Northern Kingdom’s capital city still buzzed with talk of the events that had unfolded at the Grand Royal Arena. Despite the king’s decree forbidding any discussion of the matter, and despite the crowning of the Bloodline Academy as the winners of the inter-academy competition, the truth could not be buried, as too many witnesses had seen what transpired. The entire kingdom had watched as their king used his authority to strip the War God Mage Academy of their rightful victory. The move ensured that the Great Eight academies remained unchanged, or in simpler terms he made sure the Royal Mage Academy which is under the Royal Family’s direct control, remained one of the primary beneficiaries of the kingdom’s resources for academies. Meanwhile, the War God Mage Academy that was dragged to the finals by Alec’s miraculous efforts, was discarded, its former glory overshadowed by its inability to contend with the kingdom’s polit

    The crowd understood the truth of Alec’s situation: there had been no investigation. The king had renounced the War God Mage Academy’s achievements in a single, unchallenged decree, using Alec’s actions as a convenient excuse. But now, with Alec’s bold justification and reference to the law, the tables had turned, he had exposed the lack of due process, indirectly calling out the incompetence of those responsible for investigating the incident, and by extension, the king himself. Though Alec had not openly insulted the king, but his words were an indirect slap to the monarch’s authority, forcing him into a corner before the eyes of thousands. “Don’t push your luck, boy!” the Golden Armoured Knight growled, releasing a suffocating wave of aura toward Alec, as Alec’s word indirect meaning was picked up by many. But before the oppressive energy could reach him, it was effortlessly blocked by the Dean of the War God Mage Academy, who stepped in front of Alec with a calm yet dang

    Liam stood beside the king and the golden armoured knight, suppressing a smirk that threatened to spill across his face. Things had turned out far better than he had anticipated, though the outcome was vastly different from what he initially planned, the escalation of events was beyond his imagination, but he enjoyed every second of it because it ultimately worked in his favour. Initially, Liam’s sole intention in reporting Alec was to see him punished, a brief stint in the royal jail or being forced to destroy the golem that had caused the fatality would have sufficed. He just wanted Alec humiliated, subjected to ridicule for a while, but never in his wildest dreams had he thought the king would take the matter so far, penalizing Alec’s entire team also and stripping the War God Mage Academy of their championship title and right to have their names recorded as winners. While this level of severity wasn’t what Liam had aimed for, he still found himself relishing the outcome, t

As Alec observed the preparations, the weight of the lives lost because of the king’s decision to place the final battle above a space gate filled him with disgust, unable to stomach the scene any longer, he turned and made his way to the changing room to replace his tattered academy uniform, as he had already unsummoned his spirit equipment set which left him with what was left of his tattered Uniform.

But despite this, Alec’s determination revealed a hidden defiance behind his words. “No problem then,” Azgoth said with a hint of boredom. “I’ve grown tired of fighting the same old fogey over and over, I would appreciate it if you came to fight me when you reach the high ranks, don’t worry, I’ll restrain my realm to make it fair, now, I bid you farewell.” With that, Azgoth began to ascend into the air.“Where do you think you’re going? You’re going to die here!” the Dragonmir patriarch declared, advancing forward and leaving an afterimage in his wake, as he appeared before Azgoth and thrust his hand forward, a slight smile crept onto Azgoth’s face.“I already told you, you can’t keep me here, I just don’t understand why you must act so stubborn” Azgoth replied just as the Dragonmir pa

    A bizarre and unexpected scene unfolded before the eyes of the High rank mages and above that were watching the battle, and even the once entertained demon monarch Azgoth, now found no joy in watching the ongoing battle. All this was due to the fact that an ordinary Tier 5 mage, who is not even at the pinnacle of the realm allowed to fight, was wreaking havoc, under the Blood Moon rule invoked by Azgoth himself. To Azgoth this mage was allowed to fight just to entertain him and yet, instead of being fodder for the demons, he was chasing down Tier 6 Demonkins with relentless determination. Azgoth’s amusement had soured, as this wasn’t how it was supposed to go, the limited army he had brought was due to being restricted by the lack of unanimous support from the other demon monarchs, but now he was failing to deliver the chaos he’d envisioned. His plan relied on unleashing a group of Mid Tier elite Demonkins, who would wreak havoc while the High and Monarch Tier mages would be r

    Alec had likely already decided to use his hard earned low Tier 6 random spell cards to shift the battle’s momentum if needed, he knew that even the low Tier 6 demonic beasts from the Beast Forest had battle prowess nearing the Tier 7 realm. With such a trump card in his hand, he believed he could turn the tide, mitigate the human mages numerical disadvantage, and bring the battle to a swift end, as a prolonged battle wasn’t ideal for them, especially since there was no guarantee reinforcements would arrive anytime soon. Alec had already sensed intense mana activity in the north, south, east, and west of the capital, and he recalled from his previous visit to the capital, that they had been defending against four high space gates simultaneously. Which confirmed that the entire Northern Kingdom’s capital was under siege from the four corners against if the Royal palace wasn’t counted.
