Chapter 514 - Perfect-Grade Spells!
Chapter 514: Perfect-Grade Spells!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Everyone held their breath as they stared at the huge crystal ball.
“Hum.”
Suddenly, strange noises were heard coming from the crystal ball, and it began vibrating around the same time as well. A dazzling ray of light shot out, illuminating the entire great hall.
This transformation was identical as Wizard Saturn’s Perfect-grade spell!
“Perfect-grade spell!”
“A Perfect-grade spell again. It’s only a Fourth-level spell. Does this mean that this Wizard Merlin began to derive spells from the Fourth-level onwards?”
“Prodigy Wizards who start to derive spells at the Fourth-level are not uncommon, but most of them can only derive Above Average or Good spells. It’s very rare for self-derived Fourth-level spells to be graded as Excellent. What a surprise that Wizard Merlin is actually able to derive a Perfect-grade Fourth-level spell!”
Merlin’s Fourth-level spell was apparently Perfect-grade. It was almost certainly a piece of very shocking news to many people. This indirectly proved that Merlin was able to derive new spells from the Fourth-level onwards.
However, the shocking events are far from over. Merlin began to release his second Fourth-level spell.
“Perfect…”
“Perfect…”
“Also Perfect…”
The huge crystal ball was emitting a brilliant radiance, making everyone dizzy and nauseated. Everyone’s hearts were rattled underneath this dazzling light because it represented Perfect-grade spells.
All of Merlin’s Fourth-level spells were Perfect-grade! All of his Fifth-level spells were also Perfect-grade!
This was simply incomprehensible. If Merlin had managed to derive, say, one or two Fourth- or Fifth-level Perfect-grade spells, it could be attributed to luck.
However, all twelve of them were Perfect-grade spells, and they were completely new spells self-derived by Merlin. This was no longer a question of ‘luck’. Merlin truly possessed extraordinary talents for spell construction.
The fat Wizard Arrot was dumbfounded as he stared at the dazzling light emitted by the crystal ball. His eyes were full of bewilderment.
Demonic genius, this was a true demonic deviant. He originally thought that Wizard Blackcloud’s disciple, Wizard Saturn, was already abnormally Demonic enough and would become the most talented prodigy among this batch of Potential Wizards. He did not expect Merlin to turn up out of nowhere and proved himself to be even more talented. Not only was he a Six-Elemental Spell Caster, but his Fourth-level spells onwards were also all Perfect-grade!
Arrot stared steadfastly at Merlin’s figure and said to Wizard Mogan who was beside him, “Wizard Mogan, you have really taken in an outstanding disciple! A highly-talented person like Wizard Merlin can almost catch up to the undisputed number one genius since a thousand years ago, the Seventh-level Wizard Nelar! If Wizard Merlin continues to construct Perfect spells, then he might be able to push Nelar down. His number one spot on the spell ranking had not changed in a thousand years!”
“Nelar?”
At this moment, not only Wizard Mogan but Merlin, Saturn, and the four Maxim Wizard Blackcloud all turned to look at the white wall.
On the clean white wall, there was a list of spells ranking. Saturn was now temporarily ranked at 18th place with his six Perfect-grade spells just now. This was already a very admirable ranking because the spells ranking had existed since Arcane City was built, and countless prodigies have left their names on it.
However, Merlin’s ranking was even higher. With twelve Perfect-grade spells, he had been ranked at the 13th place. Moreover, this was only temporary. His ranking would climb higher if he was able to construct more Perfect-grade spells after this.
The number one spot was occupied by Wizard Nelar with a total of thirty Perfect-grade spells. Seeing this impressive number was enough to make anyone suck in cold air.
Everyone who was present knew how difficult it was to construct a Perfect-grade spell. The fact that someone actually managed to construct thirty Perfect-grade spells was truly inconceivable!
Perfect-level spells had always been very powerful. Once they were fully combined together, then its power would escalate to a terrifying level.
“Nelar! He’s number one on the spells ranking. No one has surpassed him in a thousand years. Back then, Nelar was a rare Seventh-level Wizard. He also began to derive spells from the Fourth-level onwards, and amongst his Fourth-level spells, two of them were Perfect-grade spells.
“After that, Nelar continued to improve on his spells. At the Fifth-level, he had constructed three Perfect-grade, and at the Sixth-level, he had constructed four Perfect-grade spells. Then from Seventh-level onwards, all his spells were Perfect-grade. Thus, combined together, Nelar had constructed a total of thirty impressive Perfect-grade spells. Since then, he had been ranked first on the spells ranking. No one ever managed to surpass him!
“Now, however, Wizard Merlin, you have a great chance to surpass Nelar and to construct more Perfect-grade spells!”
A white-robed Wizard said as he looked at the numerous names on the white wall. Back then, the Spell Casters who were able to leave their names on this spells ranking were all beyond ordinary. Other than those who died under unfortunate circumstances, most of them had gone on to become the most demonic of Wizards or even the greatest of Legends!
Moreover, some of them also became the top Legend or Great Honored Legend. Therefore, this spells ranking was, in some sense, an indication of a Spell Caster’s future potential.
Merlin had already constructed twelve Perfect-grade spells at the beginning when he was casting his Fourth-level spells. In addition, he was a Six-Elemental Spell Caster. If he could keep up the momentum and construct more Perfect-grade spells from now on, then Merlin’s future achievements would be absolutely unimaginable.
“Saturn, what do you think about Merlin?”
Wizard Blackcloud asked in a small voice, his eyes narrowed slightly.
The stoical Saturn wore a thoughtful expression on his face for the first time. After a while, he replied coldly, “Incredible. His talent at spell construction is better than mine!”
Wizard Blackcloud nodded with satisfaction. He was most satisfied with Saturn because of this trait. Saturn was not only talented but was able to recognize his own weaknesses. He might be slightly arrogant, but then again, which prodigy did not have a prideful nature?
Bringing Saturn to Arcane City this time was the right choice. Arcane City was that one place, amongst hundreds and thousands of dimensions, where prodigies would gather together. Here, there would always be someone more talented than Saturn.
However, talent did not mean everything. Just like Blackcloud himself who was once only a Four-Elemental Spell Caster. Who would have thought that he would be able to become a top Legend with four Maxims and control several dimensions?
“Teacher, I’ll stand firm in Arcane City. Talent is nothing but a key. A key to access higher levels that are to come. I won’t rely too much on this key!”
Saturn understood Wizard Blackcloud’s meaning. That was why he said those reassuring words to Wizard Blackcloud after a moment of hesitation.
Wizard Blackcloud nodded while Saturn headed straight towards Merlin. He said with his gaze fastened tightly on Merlin, “I’m Saturn!”
Merlin looked at the arrogant Saturn and replied, “I’m Merlin!”
Saturn appeared to lower his head to recite the name. He then raised his head, took another long gaze at Merlin, and left. He did not even spare a glance at the fat Wizard Arrot standing beside them.
Arrot pouted and muttered under his breath, “He truly is really arrogant… Nevertheless, if I were to have Saturn’s talents and a mentor with four Maxims, I would be arrogant as well!”
Arrot did not mind. The one thing that Arcane City would never run out of were arrogant Wizards. After all, people who were able to enter Arcane City were all prodigies in their own right, so it would be impossible not to be proud.
Even Arrot himself carried with him an air of arrogance when he first came to Arcane City. However, all his arrogance had dissipated after spending some time in the city.
How would one be able to stay arrogant when they were faced against a group of Spell Casters who were much more powerful and more talented than them?
“Wizard Merlin, let’s go. I’ll bring you to the residence and introduce you to the newcomers in our batch. Hehe, I believe there will bound to be a huge commotion when they are told that both you and Saturn two prodigies will be joining them.”
Arrot was full of enthusiasm, but Merlin was not in a rush to leave with Arrot yet. Instead, he bade goodbye to Wizard Mogan. Although Merlin was able to stay in Arcane City, Wizard Mogan would not be able to do so. Even the four Maxim Wizard Blackcloud would have to leave Arcane City immediately.
“Merlin, I should get going. If you are to leave Arcane City one day, you can come back to the Mogan Dimension!”
Wizard Mogan gave the dimension coordinates to Merlin. He would be able to find the Mogan Dimension easily with the dimension coordinates. Regardless, no one knew how long it would be until the next time they met again.
After watching Wizard Mogan leave, Merlin and Arrot left the steeple.
…
“This is the living area, and that is the force field area. You can change the force field as you like.”
“There is the testing ground. Even if a great Legend were to test the power of their Maxims inside, none of the force will leak out.”
The fat Wizard Arrot led Merlin and Wizard Saturn around to familiarize themselves with the entire Arcane City. All along the way, Arrot chattered incessantly while Merlin occasionally interrupted him with a question or two.
Saturn maintained his stoic expression and did not ask any questions.
Merlin’s gaze would occasionally land on Saturn. Although his number of Perfect-grade spells was more than Saturn, Merlin would not be so egotistical as to think that he was more powerful than Saturn.
Saturn had constructed Seventh-level spells that were all Perfect. He was also a Six-Elemental Spell Caster like Merlin. Additionally, his level was higher than Merlin’s, and he had had Wizard Blackcloud as his Mentor. Surely, his Fusion Demon Abilities would not be dreadful. Thus, the extent of his true abilities was quite formidable.
If Merlin were to use up all of his techniques, he might be able to kill an average Ninth-level Spell Caster, but if it was Saturn who were to attack, he would definitely be able to easily kill an average Ninth-level Spell Caster. Even some of the powerful Ninth-level Spell Casters would not be a threat to Saturn.
Although Saturn was arrogant, he indeed possessed abilities that were worthy to be boasted about. While Merlin was not inferior to Saturn in any aspect, the difference in their levels was an insurmountable chasm.
After all, Saturn was similar to Merlin in the sense that both of them were considered top-level prodigy Wizards. In the case of having similar talents, Saturn, who had already become a Seventh-level Wizard, would naturally have superior abilities.
“Once I’m familiar with Arcane City, I need to start constructing Sixth-level spells.”
Merlin planned in his heart.
