Chapter 1, Prologue

In the early morning, wow, what bright sunlight! It forces me to open my lazy eyelids. Sigh, why does my room have to face the sun? Cry, I have to be woken up by this annoying sun every morning.

Come and eat, or you will be late for school

This concludes the background introduction; now we shall proceed to the main topic

Magic levels are divided into 9 tiers: levels 1 to 3 are considered basic magic, levels 4 to 5 are intermediate magic, levels 6 to 8 are advanced magic, and level 9 is classified as forbidden spells. Forbidden spells require the joint casting of more than 6 magicians. A magician capable of casting a forbidden spell alone is known as a grand magician, a title that has appeared in legends.

Currency is divided as follows: 1 diamond coin = 100 gold coins = 10,000 silver coins = 1,000,000 copper coins

The area of the Kingdom of Daru is the largest, accounting for three-sevenths of the Tianwu Continent. It is rich in resources, with a prosperous economy and strong populace. The military primarily consists of warriors, supplemented by mages. Due to its substantial financial resources, the Kingdom of Daru has the largest military among the three major kingdoms, and its strength is also the most formidable (at least on the surface). However, the kingdom does not advocate a martial spirit and shows little interest in expansion, which has led the people of the continent to refer to it as the Land of Harmony and Literature.

It has begun, it has begun

Alright, alright, I'm coming

The two continents face each other across the mountains, and humanity has paid the price of sacrificing millions of warriors to build the most powerful fortress in history—the Strun Fortress. Since its construction, the demon and beast races have been unable to cross the threshold, and the entire continent has enjoyed 200 years of peace.

The levels of warriors are divided into Junior Warrior, Intermediate Warrior, Advanced Warrior, Knight, Earth Knight, Sky Knight, Light Knight, Sword Saint, and the legendary War God

The Kingdom of Xiuda is a realm that upholds the dignity of knights, with only a small number of magicians present within its borders. The military primarily consists of warriors, and the cavalry of the Kingdom of Xiuda is the strongest among the three great kingdoms of the Tianwu Continent. Its unique three Dragon Cavalry regiments are composed entirely of knights holding titles of intermediate rank or above. On open plains without any barriers, no army can withstand their charge.

By the way, I forgot to provide some background. I am, of course, the protagonist of this book, and my name is Chang Gong Wei. The continent I reside in is called Tianwu Continent, which, along with the western continent of Libo, are the only two continents in the entire world as depicted in the book. The rest is, of course, a vast ocean. On Tianwu Continent, there are three countries: the resource-rich country of Dalu Kingdom, the Knight's Kingdom of Xiuda, and the magical country of Aisha Kingdom, where I reside.

Magic Crystals: From high to low grade, purple, cyan, red, blue, white, black, green

Upon hearing that spoiled voice, I immediately jumped down from the bed in a reflexive manner

Speaking of my homeland, the Kingdom of Aisha, it is truly a nation of magic. Every citizen, even the poorest among them, receives the most basic education in magic. The country boasts dozens of large magic academies, and every citizen has the right to learn magic, provided they can afford the tuition fees. Even those without money can receive instruction in fundamental magical knowledge from the elders of their villages or towns. The magical education in the country is divided into three stages, and every citizen has the right to learn magic, provided they can afford the tuition fees. Even those without money can receive instruction in fundamental magical knowledge from the elders of their villages or towns. The magical education in the country is divided into three stages

The three human nations of the Tianwu Continent are extremely united, as they share a common enemy—the demon race and the orc race from the Western Continent

Fortunately, my reaction is quick; otherwise, if I don't hear a response in a short time, the annoying sound from m.hetushu.com will immediately turn into a basic water magic spell—Water Bullet. This is my mother's usual alarm, and my mom is actually an intermediate water magician. If I get hit, it will be disastrous for me (though, that's not the main reason; the main reason is that the first time I got hit by my mom, the blanket got wet, and when I hung it out to dry, my friends mocked me for 'wetting the bed.' Oh... how unfair...)

Phase Two: Intermediate Magic Academy. Advancement to the Intermediate Magic Academy is based on the results of the graduation examination from the Primary Magic Academy; those with better scores naturally progress to better magic academies. The Intermediate Magic Academy does not have academic years but operates on a credit system. A total of 60 credits is required for graduation and to obtain the certification of an Intermediate Mage. The fastest recorded time to complete the Intermediate Magic Academy in the entire duchy is three years, while it generally takes between 5 to 10 years. Most individuals from families of moderate means or above in the kingdom cease their magical studies at the Intermediate Magic Academy. The estimated number of Intermediate Mages in the entire kingdom is approximately 300,000 to 450,000.

Lazybones, have you gotten up yet

On the continent to the west, there are two kingdoms: the Holy Light Empire, ruled by the demon race, and the Lanwu Empire, governed by the orcs. The physical characteristics of the demon race and humans are extremely similar, with the only difference being that their eyes are purple. Demons are inherently aggressive and ambitious, naturally adept at using dark magic. Orcs, on the other hand, cannot use magic, but their naturally strong bodies serve as their best weapon, and they possess exceptionally high magical defense. The combat capabilities of the orc's elite legion, the Behemoth Legion, are particularly formidable.

Stage Three: Advanced Magic Academy. It is not the case that one can attend the Advanced Magic Academy simply by passing the Intermediate Mage certification. To study at the Advanced Magic Academy, one must pass the assessment conducted by the Mage Guild. Only after passing can students enroll in the corresponding school based on their test scores. The Kingdom of Aisha stipulates that all students attending the Advanced Magic Academy are exempt from tuition fees, with all expenses covered by the state. This is also a significant reason for the flourishing of magic in the country. The highest institution of the Advanced Magic Academy is the Royal Magic Academy, which only admits those with the highest magical aptitude, and the assessments are extremely rigorous. Even princes and princesses must undergo assessments to gain entry. Graduates of the Advanced Magic Academy receive different certifications based on their graduation test scores.

Summoned beasts come in two forms: growth form and level form. The higher the level of a level form summoned beast, the stronger its abilities, ranging from level 1 to level 9. Growth form summoned beasts are rare, and when they encounter level form summoned beasts, the latter will fight to the death, not allowing the former any opportunity for growth

A new era is about to begin, and the wheel of history is turning towards its destined direction

In this world, elemental magic is divided into six categories: Light, Dark, Water, Fire, Earth, and Wind. In addition to these six elemental magics, there are also some special magics, such as Summoning Magic and Space Magic.

The levels of fighting energy are divided into: fighting energy, earth fighting energy, sky fighting energy, divine fighting energy, and holy light (which can immunize against all magic except forbidden spells)

The levels of wizards are divided into: Apprentice Wizard, Junior Wizard, Intermediate Wizard, Senior Wizard, Great Wizard, Magus, Archmage, and the legendary Grand Archmage

Stage One: The Primary Magic Academy is generally attended by children aged 5 to 10 years. It is a 5-year program, and upon graduation, students can earn the title of Magic Apprentice or Junior Magician by passing an examination, which depends on individual talent
