Outstanding Apprentice Slot

At the public library, Dwarf scholar Aul looked at Locke in astonishment. "You're publishing six articles at once this time?"

Locke nodded to confirm. Four of them were about Perseus's Eye Lichen.

The other two consisted of a preliminary testing report on the effects of the Bear Spirit Emerald Gallbladder Potion, brewed using Emerald Iris Lichen as its main ingredient, and a detailed analysis of how the Bear Spirit Emerald Gallbladder Potion dispelled Curse Magic.

As follow-up data on the Bear Spirit Emerald Gallbladder Potion was collected, several more high-value articles could probably be published.

Dwarf scholar Aul quickly flipped through the six articles. After confirming there were no issues, he gained even more respect for Locke. "Potion Master Augustine, the article you published last time on the experimental data for Memory Ointment has now been rated B-grade. The score is even higher than I expected—seventy-two points."

"But the quality of these articles you've published is all excellent. I'd say they'll all start at B-grade, and some of them may even have A-grade potential."

As Dwarf scholar Aul said this, even he felt somewhat dazed. Locke had only just advanced to First-Class Wizard Apprentice, and only a few months ago, he had published the first article of his life.

Yet now he was releasing six in one go, every one of them starting at B-grade.

Come to think of it, Dwarf scholar Aul suddenly realized that Locke's very first article had also been B-grade.

For a First-Class Wizard Apprentice, that was already an impressive achievement. Many First-Class Wizard Apprentices who came every day to publish articles were still putting out D-grade and C-grade work. They dreamed of churning out a few more C-grade articles.

But Locke seemed never to have thought much of articles below B-grade.

Dwarf scholar Aul sighed
