Chapter 235: Ring of Greed

Chapter 235 The Ring of Greed

The battle ended.

Parfit stood frozen in place.

His quicksand armor shattered, all of it falling to the ground.

In that instant just now, he had felt the breath of death.

Had it not been for the life-saving measures within the challenge arena's magical barrier.

He would already be lying down now.

Li Wei glanced at the dazed Parfit, then turned and walked into the cultivation realm teleportation gate.

After Li Wei left, Parfit finally came back to his senses.

His face was extremely ugly, with a trace of panic and fear still in his eyes.

He almost died.

Any other soul would tremble with fear after such an experience.

Parfit did not understand why Li Wei's spells were so powerful.

It was simply absurd.

Facing Li Wei's Fire Snake Technique, he felt as if he were facing a Third-Rank spell.

Even ordinary Third-Rank spells were not this strong compared to Li Wei.

He had fought Third-Rank mages before.

Parfit looked around, seeing everyone staring at him, and immediately felt his face lose its luster.

He turned and left.

The "buyers" who had come with Parfit saw this and all showed expressions of shock.

They watched Parfit's retreating back disappear.

Wailing silently within their hearts.

"Wait, don't go! I've already paid!"

They stood at the entrance of the cultivation realm, somewhat hesitant.

Should they go in or not?

Seeing Li Wei decisively defeat Parfit, the Crimson Class students fell silent for a moment, then headed toward the cultivation realm teleportation gate one by one.

The students who had previously taken money and prepared to leave also threw their money to Mark.

Striding boldly toward the cultivation realm teleportation gate.

Some dared not do this, swallowing their anger, taking the money and leaving.

Daring only to watch others enter the cultivation realm with envy amidst the crowd.

They feared retaliation from Parfit afterwards.

Li Wei is Li Wei, while they are merely them.

Li Wei does not fear Parfit, but they do.

Besides, even if Li Wei defeated Parfit, what of it?

Parfit still has backers behind him.

Li Wei is merely a Crimson Class student; ultimately, he cannot outplay the others.

Disaster would find him sooner or later.

Soon, the news of Li Wei defeating Parfit spread out.

A Crimson Class student decisively defeating a Green Class student had not happened in many years.

After all, practical combat ability was tested during class assignment at the start of the term.

Those with strong combat abilities would not be assigned to the worst Crimson Class.

But no one would have thought someone could be extremely unbalanced in their studies.

Full marks in combat, nearly zero on theory.

Li Wei entered the cultivation realm.

Four paths appeared before his eyes.

He sensed the thick aura of magical elements coming from the ends of the four paths.

The four paths led respectively to the Fire Element, Wind Element, Earth Element, and Water Element cultivation spaces.

Li Wei walked toward the Fire Element cultivation space.

Reaching the end of the road, he passed through a light gate.

Li Wei appeared in a world burning with flames.

The dense fire elements in the air were almost liquefying.

The concentration of fire elements was too high, making the temperature of the entire cultivation space astonishingly high.

An ordinary person entering here would be roasted dry and die before long.

Li Wei cultivated the Body of Fire Elements, so he felt more at ease in such a place.

Just standing still, he could feel countless fire elements actively drilling into his body.

Li Wei hurriedly found a place to cultivate.

"Teacher Sean, is he also a Fire Mage?"

Li Wei saw Sean lying on a smooth rock at the deepest part of the Fire Element cultivation space... sleeping.

The further inside one went, the higher the fire element concentration and temperature became.

"This place is about right."

Li Wei felt his skin scorching, as if it were about to burn up.

He quickly stopped his steps and retreated a distance.

He could move forward, but there was no need.

Going further ahead, unless he used Fire Element Transformation, he could not stay long.

He came here to cultivate, finding a suitable place was enough.

There was no need to desperately push deeper inside.

Li Wei glanced at Sean, feeling Sean's strength was unfathomable. With his current strength, he might not even reach the end of the Fire Element cultivation space.

After all, he could currently only partially elementalize.

Yet Sean could lie there sleeping.

One could see the extent of his power from this.

Li Wei sat down to meditate and cultivate.

As soon as he began meditating, he sensed the peculiarity of the cultivation space.

The fire elements here were exceptionally docile.

He compared cultivation to drinking water.

At the very beginning, Li Wei could not find water; he had to devise ways to squeeze a few drops from the air to drink.

After mental strength increased, and having drunk from the Elf Spring to boost aptitude.

Li Wei found a trickling stream, far more efficient than at the start.

Sometimes the trickle could not satisfy his needs.

He would need to dig an extra well for water (drink cultivation potions).

Now, Li Wei felt as though he had been thrown into a river.

No matter how much he drank, the river water did not diminish even slightly.

He could drink freely.

Pushing cultivation speed to the limit.

Every moment, every second, Li Wei could feel his mana strengthening.

For a long while, until mental strength was exhausted, cultivation ended.

[Crystal Meditation Method (Tier 2)] 9882/10000

Li Wei saw the cultivation progress.

Extremely surprised.

He glanced around, revealing an expression of excitement.

"This place is truly a treasure land!"

Then he remembered that the Red Class could only enter once a month to cultivate for one day.

Li Wei couldn't help but sigh.

"No wonder when talking about cultivation secret realms, everyone envies the Purple Class students."

"If it were me, I would envy them too!"

"Cultivating here for half a month might be worth several months outside."

"Purple Class is truly enviable; if only I could get in."

Li Wei only knew one way to change classes.

That was to perform excellently during the year-end final exam.

Classes would be redistributed based on the year-end exam results.

There were still over two months until the year-end exam.

He wondered if it was too late to cram magic theory starting now.

It should be enough time.

Two months in reality meant over twenty months in the dream world.

Almost two years of time.

Li Wei hesitated again.

"Should I slow down the upgrade speed? Delay advancing to Tier 3 Mage until after the year-end exam?"

If he advanced now, the magic theory he needed to learn would have to cover Tier 3 magic theory.

If not advancing, then he would only need to study Tier 1 and Tier 2 magic theory.

In the latter case, there was still a chance to finish learning.

The magic theory a Tier 3 Mage must learn is more than Tier 1 and Tier 2 combined.

[Evil God Curse (Divine)] Seven Rings: Ring of Pride, Ring of Greed

Ring of Greed: Allow No Loss.

The Ring of Greed told Li Wei, Take It All!

Break through to Tier 3, and also become a Purple Class student to gain more cultivation time in secret realms.

When Li Wei desired what he sought, the Ring of Greed began to take effect.

If you do not get it, you will lose it.

Li Wei desired to break through to Tier 3; if he did not break through to Tier 3 within a certain period.

Then his mana would continuously weaken, continuously leaking away.

If you do not advance, you retreat!

This is the curse of the Ring of Greed.

Li Wei's eye twitched, utterly speechless.

He never expected this could trigger a curse.

Truly outrageous.

The curse of the Ring of Greed lingered around Li Wei, shrinking at an extremely slow speed.

When the curse entered Li Wei's body, it meant the deadline had arrived.

The curse of the Ring of Greed would be triggered.

Judging by the current speed.

The Ring of Greed gave Li Wei only ten days to break through to Tier 3.
