Don't Worry About Strange!

If Gu Yi hadn't said it herself, Mordo would never have believed that someone could learn teleportation magic in such a short time!

As a master sorcerer, Mordo knew exactly how difficult magic was to learn.

Although Kamar-Taj had always welcomed all who sought knowledge, the prerequisite was that you had to be able to find Kamar-Taj in the first place.

Most people without magical talent couldn't even find Kamar-Taj's door.

Therefore, the sorcerers who found and entered Kamar-Taj usually possessed a certain degree of magical talent, and there was no shortage of exceptionally gifted standouts among them.

As Gu Yi's first disciple, Mordo had practically witnessed the growth of every sorcerer at Kamar-Taj.

Teleportation magic might have been basic magic, but it was far from easy to master.

Luo Bai had learned it in a week, without anyone teaching him!!

What kind of godlike being was he?!

And that didn't seem to be the main issue. The crucial point was that Mordo had noticed that Kamar-Taj did not appear to be missing any Sling Rings!

Magical artifacts were extremely important to sorcerers, so as the senior disciple, Mordo often kept track of whether any artifacts had gone missing from Kamar-Taj. But no Sling Rings had gone missing recently.

Thinking of this, Mordo could not help asking, "Sorcerer Supreme, did you give him a Sling Ring?!"

Gu Yi shook her head. "No."

"!????"

Mordo fell silent.

The expression on his face was truly a sight to behold.

No one had taught him, and he had no Sling Ring.

It seemed Kamar-Taj was about to produce a godlike being!

Although Mordo said nothing and merely wore his shock plainly on his face, Gu Yi completely understood why he was so stunned.

After all, even Gu Yi, whose face usually showed little expression, had rarely revealed a trace of surprise.

"His talent has surpassed my expectations," Gu Yi said with a sigh.

Mordo nodded in agreement.

But he did not understand.

"Since his talent is so extraordinary, Sorcerer Supreme, why didn't you bring him back to Kamar-Taj?!" Mordo asked.

Gu Yi did not answer. Instead, she asked, "Do you remember the anomaly detected on Earth earlier?!"

Mordo answered respectfully, "I remember. The Sanctum detected an intrusion. It seemed to be a traveler from the multiverse."

Gu Yi frowned, then slowly explained.

"I once explored the future. Logically, this 'intruder' should not have appeared, yet he did. That forced me to explore the future once more, only to discover that Earth's future had been changed. This 'intruder' had already been recorded in Earth's timeline."

"I was curious about this 'intruder's identity, but I could not see his future. I could only examine Earth's future to investigate the times and events in which he occasionally appeared."

Gu Yi paused at this point, seemingly lost in thought.

Mordo knew he should not ask too much, but he could not suppress his curiosity.

After hesitating for a moment, he cautiously asked, "Sorcerer Supreme, is the 'intruder' you mentioned Luo Bai?!"

Gu Yi nodded.

"So, Sorcerer Supreme, what did you see?!" Mordo asked again.

Gu Yi did not hide it and answered truthfully, "I saw him becoming the Sorcerer Supreme."

Mordo suddenly understood.

That future did not surprise him.

Originally, the title "Sorcerer Supreme" represented the strongest sorcerer.

With talent as terrifying as Luo Bai's, becoming the Sorcerer Supreme was only a matter of time.

After all, no matter how hard one worked, it was impossible to compete with someone born so exceptionally gifted.

Thinking this, Mordo could not help sighing. "Luo Bai's talent is so high. It's perfectly normal for him to become the Sorcerer Supreme in the future."

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Yi shook her head. "No, this isn't normal."

Mordo was confused and asked doubtfully, "I don't understand. Why isn't this normal?!"

Gu Yi explained, "According to the original future, Doctor Strange should have been the Sorcerer Supreme."

Before Mordo could speak again, Gu Yi continued, "The future being changed is something that has never happened before. Yet I cannot determine exactly how he became the Sorcerer Supreme. I can only roughly speculate... that his talent and overall qualities far surpass Strange's."

"So that's why you left him a magic book to study on his own—you wanted to test his talent, correct?!" Mordo asked, following Gu Yi's line of thought.

Gu Yi nodded, giving an affirmative answer.

When she discovered that Luo Bai would become the future Sorcerer Supreme, she understood that she could no longer drive this "intruder" off Earth.

Because she could not change the future.

Since she could not change it, she could only go along with it and seek answers within it.

When Gu Yi had first gone to find Luo Bai, she had merely had a suspicion that his talent would be quite good.

But she had never expected Luo Bai's talent to be this good—so good that even she was somewhat surprised.

Without the aid of magical artifacts and without anyone guiding him, Luo Bai could open a portal with nothing but a copy of the Supreme Compendium?!

This talent... was simply unbelievable.

But what about Strange...

Forget Strange.

"Sorcerer Supreme, do you need me to bring him back to Kamar-Taj for training?!" Mordo suddenly asked as she was thinking.

Now that Luo Bai's extraordinary talent had been confirmed, and it had been proven that he might become the future Sorcerer Supreme,

Mordo naturally wondered whether he should personally invite this "godlike man" back, saving the Sorcerer Supreme another trip.

But Gu Yi seemed to have plans of her own.

"Not for now. Wait a little longer," Gu Yi said.

She wanted to see just how powerful Luo Bai's talent truly was, so there would be no harm in bringing him back after he finished studying the entire Supreme Compendium.

Besides, sorcerers needed to venture out and gain experience anyway. Letting him train outside for a while would be good.

"Could you two sorcerers... look at me..."

Gu Yi and Mordo had been discussing Luo Bai when Obadiah, standing nearby, could no longer hold back and spoke up.

He was panicking badly right now.

After all, he had been left hanging there for a long time, listening to these mages discuss things like the Sorcerer Supreme and the future.

The more he listened, the more frightened he became.

Especially since his soul had left his body and he still could not return to it. That made him even more terrified.

Of all the people he could have offended, why did it have to be mages?!

Thinking of this, Obadiah pleaded tearfully, "Could you let my soul return to my body first..."

His words drew Gu Yi and Mordo's attention.

Seemingly considering that it would be inappropriate for him to remain at Kamar-Taj, Mordo asked, "Sorcerer Supreme, how should we deal with him?!"

"Use Soul Exile," Gu Yi answered without a second thought.

Obadiah panicked the moment he heard that and shouted, "What does Soul Exile mean..."

Before he could finish, Mordo cast a spell, and he vanished from the main hall.

After dealing with Obadiah, Mordo prepared to leave. "Sorcerer Supreme, I'll be going now."

The moment he finished speaking, Gu Yi said, "Later, go find Luo Bai and give him a Sling Ring. I will give you the address."

Mordo nodded. "Understood, Sorcerer Supreme."
