Chapter 151: Master of Time Management

Following the incident at the arena, Sein resumed his attendance in classes at the academy building the next day.

When Sein claimed the center seat in the front row in the classroom during the Pyro Elemental Transformation course, none of the other initiates dared to make any objections.

Most of them had caught wind of the previous day’s battle and the ultimate victor. Read latest chapters at nov(e)lbin.com Only

While some harbored a degree of fear toward Sein, the sudden rising star of the academy, most simply intrigued.

After all, he was an enigmatic figure who had suddenly burst onto the scene with remarkable strength.

Mark also came to class today, but unlike the previous day, his arm was wrapped in a thick layer of white bandages.

Upon spotting Sein, he no longer exuded the same air of arrogance.

Yet, a trace of unresolved frustration lingered in Mark’s eyes.

Nevertheless, he was not foolish enough to challenge Sein again right away.

A temporary setback meant little to Mark, and he was confident that he would have an opportunity to redeem himself in the future.

After leaving the arena stage yesterday, Mark learned from his grandmother that, in addition to the Pyro Blade spell, Sein also had an advanced magic wand in his clutch, capable of instantly unleashing an advanced magic spell.

Had it not been for Eileen’s timely intervention, Mark would have met his end at the hands of either Sein’s Pyro Sword spell or the spell in his Acid Wand.

This revelation left Mark shocked and wary of Sein, a fellow senior initiate who had always kept a low profile and seemed rather peculiar.

Even so, Mark was not ready to admit defeat.

He firmly believed that the sole reason for his loss was Sein's superior magic equipment.

Whether it was the ring with geo elemental shield or the Acid Wand, both items were considered rare gems among advanced magic items.

Mark was convinced that given another chance, he could strategically counter Sein’s equipment.

Perhaps he could even request superior magic items from his family that rivaled Sein’s Acid Wand.

However, this remained a mere fantasy in Mark’s mind.

All this while, he had been using the concentrated powdered Elandria for his meditation.

While a month’s worth of reward may appear modest, the accumulation over a year holds significant value for me.

The rewards for those in the top ten or top three power rankings are undoubtedly scarce and precious.

Unfortunately, my current circumstances don’t permit me to invest excessive effort in achieving something as temporary as power rankings.

According to Master Jovian and Eileen, the Regional Inter-Divine Tower Academy War eight years from now presents an opportunity for initiates to shine, capture the attention of the upper echelons, and reap substantial rewards.

Hence, it’s crucial for me to focus on acquiring knowledge and self-improvement at present.

Apart from expediting the elevation of my focus and mana levels to the standards of a Quasi Mage, I need to continue improving Solar Eye and other magic spells.

Sein sighed contemplatively.

Additionally, Sein remained committed to his role as an alchemist in training.

Whether it was for the sake of his late mentor, Morsidor, or for his personal growth, Sein could not afford to abandon the rigorous and time-consuming study of alchemy.

Additionally, Sein also harbored a keen interest in exploring apothecary knowledge.

The breadth of knowledge and specialized skills Sein aspired to master was vast, overwhelming his daily schedule to the point he wished each minute could be stretched into two.

This intense commitment explained Sein’s seemingly quiet and indifferent demeanor, leading to his absence from noble balls.

Social events were a luxury he could not afford with his demanding daily routine.

Sein even contemplated giving up on the power rankings reward.

He simply lacked the time to contend with senior initiates vying for his position on the arena stage.

If others sought the title, he was willing to relinquish it.

Since their battle, Mark had been diligently analyzing Sein’s fighting techniques in an attempt to overcome him.

One could only wonder how he would react upon learning Sein’s thoughts and attitude toward the power rankings.
