Chapter 238: Trouble Arrives

Chapter 238 Trouble Arrives

Li Wei suppressed the thought that the Fire Spirit Ritual might not work.

For now, this was the only advancement ritual available to him.

If there were a better advancement ritual, that would naturally be even better.

Without using the Fire Spirit Ritual, relying solely on the crude ritual he had comprehended himself, it would probably take years to complete the awakening.

"Sigh, take one step at a time, think of other methods if it doesn't work."

"At least, there are still nine days left."

The Greed Curse forced Li Wei to move without stopping.

Li Wei also wanted to reach Tier Three sooner.

Then save up a hundred credits, go to the Temple of Light in Storm City to purify away this damn curse.

At night, Li Wei cultivated Alchemy in the Dream World.

The next morning.

Li Wei washed his face, words floated up in the water before his eyes.

[Alchemy (Tier Three)] 24/10000

After a night's effort, Alchemy rose to Tier Three level.

He could now brew the Vitality Elixir.

Now, it was just about finding a way to gather the materials needed for brewing the Vitality Elixir.

The first step was making money.

After partaking in the free breakfast within the manor, he came to the Hall of Truth in the Element Tower.

The Hall of Truth was where mages discussed magical theory.

As soon as Li Wei walked in, he saw a large amount of magical text floating on the walls.

Mages would leave their points of confusion on the walls of the Hall of Truth.

Some questions came with rewards, some questions sought like-minded people to discuss together.

Li Wei's purpose for coming was naturally to earn rewards.

He went directly to the bounty board in the Hall of Truth to find problems.

Many problems were simply impossible to understand.

Li Wei had already supplemented some basic magical knowledge, but for a place like the Hall of Truth.

He was like a primary school pupil walking into a university.

Completely unable to comprehend.

Not completely unable to comprehend, though.

In terms of Tier One and Two fire spells, Li Wei's attainment was unmatched by anyone.

Precisely because of this, Li Wei wanted to come to the Hall of Truth to find problems to earn money.

"Hmm, there really are doubts about spell cultivation."

"What to do if practicing Tier One Fire Breath easily burns the mouth? Bounty two gold coins, seeking an expert to answer."

Already quite a few people had answered below the question.

But none could satisfy the questioner.

So, these two gold coins remained unclaimed for a long time.

Li Wei smiled, reaching out to write an answer below the question.

Two gold coins weren't much, but they were better than nothing.

Everyone else was recounting their own spell usage techniques, teaching the questioner how to avoid burning their mouth with Fire Breath.

Li Wei solved the problem directly at its root.

He optimized the spell model circuit of Fire Breath, directly avoiding the glitch of Fire Breath accidentally injuring oneself.

After writing the answer.

Li Wei proceeded to look for other solvable problems.

His goal was to earn fifty gold coins first, enough to buy a set of materials for brewing the Vitality Elixir.

Suddenly, the magic badge vibrated.

Li Wei picked it up and took a look, discovering the previous question had been adopted, obtaining the reward of two gold coins.

Gold coins were recorded inside the magic badge, exchangeable for real gold coins at the Wealth Hall of the Element Tower.

"A good start."

"How to make the Tier Two spell Wall of Fire move? Bounty 10 gold coins, seeking a solution."

"Fire Snake spell casting time is too long, duration less than ten seconds, how to solve? Bounty 15 gold coins."

"How to increase the number of fireballs in Chain Fireball spell? Bounty 6 gold coins."

...

Problems he could answer, Li Wei wrote down answers for all of them.

Some problems received feedback quickly, receiving payment.

Some problems had no reaction for a long time, didn't know if the questioner hadn't seen the answer, or wasn't very satisfied.

Li Wei stayed in the Hall of Truth for a while, then went to class in the Crimson Class.

When he arrived at the classroom, Sean had not yet come.

"Li Wei is here."

Li Wei walked into the classroom, everyone fell silent one after another, turning heads to gaze at him.

He subconsciously halted his steps, gazing at the crowd asking: "What?" They all turned their heads, no longer looking at him.

But secretly stole glances at him a few times.

Li Wei discovered there were especially many people in the classroom today.

People who normally wouldn't come to class at all, came today as well.

He thought something special was happening today.

Such as a day of cultivation.

Sat down and waited for a while, nothing happened.

He took out a book, self-studied.

Half an hour later, footsteps sounded outside the door.

Tap, tap, tap.

Li Wei looked up, thinking Sean had arrived.

But the person who walked in was not Sean.

It was Parfait.

Li Wei frowned; what business did this guy have here?

Parfait walked straight toward Li Wei.

After he moved aside.

Everyone could then see a noble youth standing outside the door, his expression arrogant.

Seeing this, the members of the Red Class all stood up to clear a path.

Parfait walked to Li Wei's front and said, "My boss wants to see you."

Li Wei put away his book and said indifferently, "If he wants to see me, let him come over himself."

Hearing this, the noble youth outside the door walked into the classroom.

He chuckled, "Very good, you are quite arrogant."

"I thought they were exaggerating, but now it seems true indeed."

"I am Anthony from the Blue Class," the noble youth introduced himself.

Li Wei leaned back, resting against the chair.

"What do you want?"

Anthony looked at him and said, "Be my lackey, and I'll cover for you from now on."

"With your strength, you shouldn't be stuck in this worst class; I can arrange for you to audit classes in the Green Class."

"And allow you to enjoy the treatment only Green Class students can have."

Li Wei chuckled.

"Hehe, you really are omnipotent."

"Unfortunately, I have no interest in sworn brotherhood."

"Don't refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit wine," Parfait threatened.

Li Wei glanced at him, "Seems I went too easy yesterday; you haven't been beaten enough yet."

"You!"

Parfait's face instantly turned red with anger.

Anthony shook his head and said, "You are just a commoner student; even if your strength is a bit higher, it's hard to survive in the Element Tower."

"You need to find a patron, and I'm about to become a Tier Three Mage; being your patron is more than enough."

"You feel indifferent now, but when you truly encounter difficulties and can't find anyone to help, only then will you understand how important a patron is."

Anthony smiled and said, "Just like now."

"Do you know why Sean hasn't arrived yet?"

Anthony asked suddenly.

Li Wei retorted, "Could it be because of you?"

"Hehe, you're actually somewhat smart."

"I got someone to hold Sean up; now there's no one here to help you."

Parfait suddenly shouted to the surroundings, "Get out, all of you get out!"

The Red Class students were startled.

Some timid ones, seeing the situation was bad, left the classroom one after another.

Some wanted to stay and watch the spectacle.

Parfait directly used force to drive them away.

Seeing he was serious, everyone hurriedly fled the classroom.

Hum!

A barrier unfolded, covering the entire classroom.

Only three people remained inside the classroom.

Li Wei, Anthony, Parfait.

Anthony looked at Li Wei and said cheerfully, "Now, whatever happens here, no one outside will know."

"Really?"

Li Wei revealed a smile.
