The Tin Sage School is the top wizarding school in the city of Neustadt, and its base camp occupies an extremely large area.
It takes at least twenty minutes for ordinary people to walk from the entrance to the teaching castle in the middle. Apprentices who live outside the school must allow enough time every time they come to class.
Fortunately, Colin's footsteps were fast enough, and the Castle of Zhenzhihui was not far away from the Xisheng School. With two minutes left before class started, he stepped into the classroom where today's class would be held.
The classroom is located on the third floor of Building F of the Teaching Castle. The space inside is not large, with a few sparse rows of wooden seats. If it is full, it can only accommodate about forty people at most.
At this time, only half of the seats in the classroom were occupied. The wizards gathered in small groups. Colin found an empty seat in a remote corner and sat down.
His arrival did not cause any disturbance, only a few wizards raised their eyes to look at him, and then looked away again when they saw that he was a stranger.
Not long after Colin walked in, wizards arrived one after another.
Most of the wizards are punctual, and they usually arrive three minutes before class.
After a while, when the time reached two o'clock in the afternoon, a figure in a white robe suddenly appeared behind the desk.
At this time, an old man with white hair and a long beard appeared, with a vaguely illusory body, which meant that what he arrived was not his real body.
Without much greeting, the old wizard looked around and then just said:
"In this class, we will talk about the strong connection between soul differences and the distribution of the spiritual sea, and how it affects the efficiency of witchcraft casting and magic power..."
All the wizards in the audience were sitting upright, looking attentive.
The same is true for Colin. This is a six-hour course worth 20 school contribution points, which is not cheap for the contribution points he currently has!
Of course, the content mentioned is also worthy of the price.
The strong connection between soul differences and the distribution of the spiritual sea is a difficult point in advanced knowledge.
Regarding knowledge, in orthodox school education, it is mainly divided into two stages.
One is the apprenticeship period. At this stage, basically all wizards receive the same basic knowledge education content.
Most of them are some recognized truths, basic knowledge about elements, souls, bloodlines, etc.
There may be some slight differences between different schools of thought, but in general they are not big.
By analogy, the knowledge education during the school apprenticeship is somewhat similar to the compulsory education in the previous life.
And when the apprentice is lucky enough to become an official wizard, there will be no unified learning standard for the next knowledge.
Just like a big tree begins to branch out at a certain node, the knowledge that follows is not basic, it is all advanced knowledge, advanced knowledge in different aspects!
As for wizard learning, advancing to the official wizard level is this point.
Starting from becoming an official wizard, each wizard will embark on a different path. Each wizard has different directions of witchcraft that he is good at, and the knowledge he learns also has different emphasis.
After all, human energy is limited, even wizards will only study in areas they are good at.
As for Colin, because the advancement speed was so fast, he basically didn't learn any other knowledge except meditation and a few witchcraft throughout the first-level wizard stage.
However, due to the special nature of gold paper, the lack of knowledge was not as serious as he originally expected.
In fact, in some aspects, such as summoning the fire element, or the second stage of the Tin Saint Meditation Method, the depth of knowledge Colin mastered was not inferior to other wizards of the same level.
If he had to insist on it, there would be no problem for him to continue practicing like this.
It's just that Colin himself is not satisfied with the breadth of his knowledge, and there is still a lack of some classic knowledge, such as the knowledge about the soul and the spiritual sea that will be explained in this class.
Thinking of this, Colin couldn't help but sigh slightly in his heart.
He roughly calculated that if he wanted to expand his knowledge to the breadth he wanted, it would cost at least three to four thousand, based on the school's contribution.
Of course, the source of knowledge does not have to be limited to a school of thought.
You can get some knowledge from places like the True Knowledge Society and Darren's Trust.
In addition, compared to contribution points, magic stones are easier for Colin to obtain, and he is also prioritizing the use of magic stones to gain knowledge.
Unfortunately, there is still a lot of knowledge that can only be obtained in the True Knowledge Society or school.
Especially for some knowledge that requires explanation and demonstration to be understood, he has to spend his contribution points to study in the school, not even the True Knowledge Society.
Colin raised his head slightly, his super brain running rapidly. Every word of the old wizard was deeply engraved in his mind and was quickly understood.
In fact, if he settles for the next best thing and chooses to be like the other wizards, he just specializes in one aspect.
Then the contribution points needed will be greatly reduced.
It's just not necessary.
When Colin began to learn a lot of knowledge like this, he once again realized the power of his super-brain talent.
In fact, Colin had expected it at first and thought he was prepared, but the actual experience still surprised him.
So much so that he changed the way he studied and chose to learn most of the knowledge on his own at Xisheng Library. He only signed up for certain knowledge where self-study efficiency was extremely low or infeasible.
After all, the difference in credits required between redeeming relevant knowledge books from the library and taking relevant knowledge courses is at least double.
But Colin only has 200 school contribution points in his hand. Even with such savings, it is far from enough to spend on his study plan...
"As we all know, the soul is unique, and everyone's soul is unique..."
The old wizard's explanation was far from lively, but it was very capable and concise.
Most of the six hours passed quickly with his non-stop explanation.
Fortunately, the wizard present was at least a first-level wizard, otherwise even if he could bear it mentally, his bladder would never be able to bear it.
The last half hour of class is Q&A time, and everyone has an equal opportunity to ask questions.
However, everyone can only have the right to listen to the answers to their own questions - perhaps to save time, the old wizard who gave the lecture used spiritual transmission to answer questions from several people at the same time.
This also resulted in them being able to hear other wizards' questions, but not the old wizard's answers.
"I'm going to ask about the impact of different distribution locations of the spiritual sea on the spiritual consumption of elemental witchcraft."
Suddenly there were whispers from the side.
"Then I ask about the impact on the consumption of force field witchcraft."
"But I also want to ask a question about the soul... I don't understand the difference. What are the factors that affect the essence of the soul..."
"Me too...but that doesn't have a big impact on casting witchcraft. We only have two chances to ask questions, so we can only choose the more important one."
"Sigh... It's a pity. I should find another companion to come to class with me. Twenty contribution points is too expensive."
"There's no way... I'll see if anyone else has asked this question after class, and we can exchange ideas."
"It can only be the."
Colin's ears twitched slightly, knowing that the two wizards sitting not far behind him were negotiating with each other.
This is the case for most courses, so in the final question-and-answer session, wizards from those factions will mostly discuss how each person will ask different questions, and finally share with each other to achieve a win-win situation.
"I can ask different questions and exchange them when the time comes?"
Colin asked in a low voice, looking behind him.
The two wizards were startled and raised their heads, looked at each other and replied:
"Can."
"Yeah." Colin also nodded slightly at them.
Normally he wouldn't do this, but the factors that affect the difference in souls were exactly the questions he wanted to ask.
——After advancing to a second-level wizard, the changes in his soul are different from those of other wizards.
In addition, there is actually another reason.
However... it's actually just a random move. Whether it has any effect remains to be seen.
Half an hour later, as the figure of the old wizard on the desk gradually disappeared, this course worth 20 school contribution points also came to an end.
Colin sighed slightly. After taking this course, his school contribution points dropped below three digits, leaving only 90 points.
He stood up slowly, looked back, looked at the two wizards, and walked to the corridor outside together.
The classroom will be used in the near future, and generally speaking, people will not stay in it for too long.
Five minutes later, the three people in the corridor ended the exchange of knowledge.
"Your Excellency looks a little unfamiliar. I wonder which instructor you are a student of? My name is Hogan, and I am a student of Wizard Wit. If it suits me next time, we can take classes together if we have the opportunity." The rich brown-haired wizard said with a smile.
Not only did Colin completely relay the old wizard's answer, but he also specially explained some obscure parts to the two of them...
At first they were a little hesitant, but later they discovered that the wizard in front of them did understand the old wizard's answer, and his explanation of obscure points often made them feel suddenly enlightened.
Such a talented wizard is obviously worth making friends with!
"My name is Bernie, and my mentor is also Mr. Witte." The companion on the other side also smiled and agreed.
"Colin Leonard." Colin smiled and just said his name.
The other two wizards were not annoyed either, they just thought that Colin did not want to reveal his faction.
Colin stopped chatting with them, took a breath, took out his golden feather nameplate according to the original plan, and said to the wizard in the corridor:
"Knowledge for knowledge, I basically understand most of the knowledge points taught by the teacher in the last class, and I can answer my questions for a fee."
In fact, these words are still modest. The old wizard explained it very well. Colin has basically completely understood this difficult knowledge.
However, the other wizards in the corridor didn't know that. As soon as he said his words, all the wizards looked sideways. Some of them even wanted to say "Who is so arrogant?"
But after seeing the golden feather nameplate in his hand, they all swallowed back the sarcasm they were about to blurt out, and looked at each other with suspicion at their companions.
Hogan and Bernie beside Colin looked slightly startled, and their eyes widened.
Good guy, no wonder he explained so thoroughly. It turns out that the wizard in front of me is actually a Golden Feather!?
There are many wizards in the Xisheng School, but the number of Jin Yu can be counted on two hands, which is extremely rare.
Moreover, according to the treatment Jin Yu receives, there is usually no need to come over to take these courses. They have their own one-on-one guidance from high-level wizards.
The corridor fell silent for a moment. After a while, the wizards continued to communicate with each other, and no one paid attention to Colin for a while.
Colin didn't care at all. In the final analysis, this move was just done casually.
It would be best if he could save some school contribution points in exchange for some knowledge. If not, of course it doesn't matter.
He stood quietly, planning to wait another five minutes before leaving.
