Large Energy-Absorbing Ancient Tree

Bella and the other young noble men and women showed a hint of longing when they heard Gael's introduction. Ordinary countries were not as extravagant as Saint High Forest City, which could casually transplant precious plants like the Sunlight Tree to the sides of the roads.

Apart from the six great miracle cities like Saint High Forest City and some top-tier Wizard forces, most places in the Durando Subcontinent were at the level of medieval Western Europe. Bella and the other young noble men and women had much more knowledge than many commoners, but compared to Wizard descendants like Gael, they still seemed like bumpkins.

Within Saint High Forest City, order was well-maintained, roads were clear, everyone wore beautiful clothes, and their complexions were rosy. Every building in the city had a unique style. Many large buildings were even filled with artistic beauty. The entire city had none of the scenes found in ordinary cities, such as muddy ground, livestock manure everywhere, and sewage flowing freely. It was even more beautiful, clean, lively, and prosperous than modern European cities on Earth.

As Yang Feng's large convoy, which had two thousand guards, entered Saint High Forest City, it also attracted countless onlookers. In particular, the combat robots, such as the 6-meter-tall mechanical Swordsmen, attracted countless eyes.

Mechanical puppets were not uncommon in the Durando Subcontinent, but most of them were in the hands of official Wizard s, and it was difficult for ordinary people to see giant combat mechanical puppets like the mechanical Swordsmen.

Although Saint High Forest City was a place where every inch of land was precious, after negotiating with the Antalya Wizard Academy and paying a price of ten thousand Magic Stones, Yang Feng purchased a small manor in Saint High Forest City in the name of the Steel Lord Yang Ye.

After Yang Feng and his group entered the small manor and rested for a night, they set off towards the Antalya Wizard Academy under Gael's guidance.

The Antalya Wizard Academy was located in the center of Saint High Forest City, a city within a city with a diameter of up to thirty kilometers. Within a thousand meters of the Antalya Wizard Academy's entrance, there were lush trees and green grass everywhere, with no sign of human habitation. Beyond that thousand meters, it was bustling with countless shops.

This day was the day the Antalya Wizard Academy recruited new students, and the road leading to the Antalya Wizard Academy was crowded with people.

"Mechanical puppets!"

"Such big mechanical puppets!"

"Who is that person? He actually has such terrifying mechanical puppets as his guards!"

"..."

Suddenly, there was a burst of discussion from the crowd, and then they parted.

Under the escort of eight Level-7 Main Battle Robots, Yang Feng and his group arrived at the entrance of the Antalya Wizard Academy. The surrounding crowd looked at the Main Battle Robots beside Yang Feng, and a hint of awe flashed in their eyes.

Each of the Level-7 mechanical Swordsmen was 6 meters tall and equipped with many powerful weapons. At a glance, it was clear that these big guys were invincible unless they possessed Wizard -level combat power. The person who came under the escort of these steel monsters was definitely a big shot who could not be offended.

In the crowd, a sixteen-year-old girl with blonde hair, blue eyes, a full and sexy figure, and a beautiful and moving appearance glared fiercely at Yang Feng and whispered resentfully, "He is the Steel Lord's only blood relative!"

A middle-aged man following the beautiful girl whispered, "Princess, please do not act rashly! The Steel Lord is a lunatic! If you give him an excuse, our Fein Deluo Family will be in danger."

A hint of confidence flashed in the beautiful princess's eyes, and she said coldly, "I know! I won't act rashly, but I will definitely not let him have an easy time!"

Yang Feng and his group stopped a thousand meters from the entrance of the Antalya Wizard Academy under the escort of the eight Main Battle Robots.

The rules of the Antalya Wizard Academy were strict. The thousand-meter road could only be entered by young people participating in the Antalya Wizard Academy's test. All servants and guards who stepped onto that road would be severely punished at the least, and at the worst, they would be directly killed or captured to be used as alchemy materials.

Under Gael's guidance, Yang Feng followed the nearly ten thousand young men and women from the Southern City-State Alliance and strode towards the Antalya Wizard Academy.

"What a big tree!"

As soon as Yang Feng arrived at the entrance of the Antalya Wizard Academy, he saw a giant tree on a high mountain deep within the Antalya Wizard Academy. It soared into the clouds, had countless branches, and emitted faint rainbow-like light.

Gael said proudly, "This is a Large Energy-Absorbing Ancient Tree, a super ancient tree unique to the Sunlight Tree Plane! It can absorb the free energy of space and condense a Magic Crystal Pool. Even on the main continent, it is a rare treasure. If that Large Energy-Absorbing Ancient Tree hadn't already merged with the Antalya Wizard Academy, it would have been taken away by the powerhouses on the main continent long ago."

Magic Stones, this kind of ore with extraordinary energy, were divided into four grades: low-grade Magic Stones, medium-grade Magic Stones, high-grade Magic Stones, and top-grade Magic Stones. The exchange ratio for each grade was 100:1. Above the top-grade Magic Stones, there were treasures like Magic Crystals. The value of the Large Energy-Absorbing Ancient Tree, which could absorb the free energy of space and condense a Magic Crystal Pool, was immense.

There were still many forces in the Durando Subcontinent that had powerhouses at the Great Wizard level, but those forces were far inferior to the six great forces like the Antalya Wizard Academy, precisely because the foundations of those forces were far less profound than those of the six great forces. This Large Energy-Absorbing Ancient Tree was one of the foundations of the Antalya Wizard Academy.

At the entrance of the Antalya Wizard Academy, there were ten tables, and at each table sat a Level-1 Wizard emitting a powerful life fluctuation.

On each table was a crystal used to test the Soul Aptitude of the young men and women who desired to enroll.

A cold voice sounded from an old man wearing a black robe and with a wrinkled face: "15 years old, Soul Aptitude Level 3 Lower Grade. Failed!"

A young man in splendid attire slightly changed his expression, gritted his teeth, and left with a look of helplessness.

The Antalya Wizard Academy's admissions are very strict; one must have a Soul Aptitude of at least Level 4 Lower to even have a chance of being accepted. However, some smaller Wizard powers will accept anyone with a Soul Aptitude of Level 2 Middle.

"14 years old, Soul Aptitude Level 4 Lower, qualified!"

"16 years old, Soul Aptitude Level 4 Upper, qualified!"

"15 years old, Soul Aptitude Level 5 Lower, qualified!"

"15 years old, Soul Aptitude Level 3 Upper, not qualified!"

"..."

Voice after voice rang out, pronouncing the fates of the young men and women from various parts of the Southern City-State Alliance. Those declared qualified were beaming with joy, while those declared unqualified looked as if they had lost their parents, their faces ashen.
