That knowledge is advanced academic; it's impossible for a normal person to learn it in a day, let alone in ten years.

The government also publicly releases footage of the selection process every year to ensure fairness and impartiality.

As long as it's fair, no one will have any controversy.

The world seems to have already accepted the existence of supernatural powers, and since they haven't had much impact on their lives yet, it doesn't really matter to them.

Thirty years passed peacefully, and this marked Leo's seventieth year since arriving on the New Earth.

Breaking news from the Wizard World: 123 of the apprentices from the New Earth who were transported to the Wizard World have already been promoted to Official Wizard.

Of these, twenty-three remained at the academy to teach other Wizard Apprentice and develop their territories, while one hundred Official Wizard left the academy to travel and settle in other parts of the Wizard World or prepare to participate in expeditions.

As for the twenty small settlements that have already appeared within the territory, they are unable to form towns due to insufficient population and can only wait for several more decades.

Of course, the number of Wizard Apprentice who died during the development of the Wizard World's territories is another story.

Death is a normal thing; everyone is prepared for it!

Thirty years have passed, and a generation has lived on this side of the New Earth. Over these years of subtle influence, the shadow of witchcraft has appeared in life. Witchcraft is no longer a lofty myth; ordinary people have come into contact with it and even experienced it.

Especially in areas such as education, healthcare, and resource development, witchcraft has achieved remarkable results that were previously unattainable by technology.

Entering the Heavenly Capital Wizard Academy to study, becoming a wizard, and mastering witchcraft is everyone's dream.

Everything was moving in a positive direction, and Li Xi's body had recovered to more than one-fifth of its previous strength. Having not slept for a long time, Leo actually fell asleep while sitting in a chair.

In his dream, Leo seemed to have come to a pool of water that emitted a golden light. The pool was not large, less than half the size of a family swimming pool, but it was surprisingly deep, and the bottom could not be seen at a glance.

Without any conscious effort, Leo walked towards the golden pool of water. As the water submerged his body, he floated on the surface.

He felt as if he had returned to his mother's embrace, to his happiest moment, and then slowly closed his eyes, enjoying the long-lost sense of security and tranquility.

But Leo didn't notice that the golden pool water was spreading into his body, gradually turning his body golden, the same color as the pool water.

After an unknown amount of time, Leo's entire body was submerged in the pool, turning golden. Leo's brows furrowed slightly, as if he had encountered some difficult decision.

But under the influence of the blissful feeling of the golden pool, Leo's brows slowly relaxed, and he continued to enjoy this rare moment of happiness. However, his body continued to sink deeper into the pool, already several meters below the surface.

The golden water, like tiny snakes, burrowed into Leo 'Leo body through his mouth and nose, trying to dye his insides golden as well.

But just as Leo's entire body turned golden, Leo body suddenly began to tremble unnaturally.

It felt like something inside my body was struggling, trying to break free from my control.

The golden pool tried to soothe Leo using the same method as before, but this time it was ineffective. Leo's trembling became more and more intense, even causing the entire pool to shake.

finally,

With a deafening boom, Leo exploded like a lit bomb, blasting open the entire pool of water and revealing his eyes. Leo stared in terror at the water falling from the sky, as if the golden water was not a haven of happiness, but the most terrifying creature.

As Leo awoke, golden liquid flowed from his mouth and nose; this was the pool water that had just entered Leo's body.

As the golden water flowed out, Leo's body returned to its original state.

Not daring to linger here, Leo forcibly activated his consciousness, waking himself from his sleep.

Before the water could submerge Leo again, Leo had already vanished.

After Leo left, the golden pool slowly returned to its original state, without any ripples, like the cleanest mirror.

Inside the palace nestled in the mountainside of the academy, Leo Xiteng abruptly stood up from his chair, panting heavily.

He's awake!

He experienced a great terror in his sleep; he was almost assimilated by those golden pools of water!

"What is that?"

Leo subconsciously wiped the sweat from his face. Since becoming Official Wizard, he had only sweated from fear a handful of times, and after becoming Level Three Great Wizard, he hadn't done it even once. This was the first time.

But when Leo's hand touched his face, he froze instantly.

Because he didn't notice any wrinkles or sagging skin!

Leo immediately sensed his body, examining it inside and out several times, and the results shocked Leo.

"How so?"

Just then, I felt a slight tremor on my shoulder; it was Yaoyao appearing with an urgent expression.

" Leo, what did you just do? Why has your body recovered so much?"

I don't know.

Leo pondered in a low voice, raised his palm, and examined it repeatedly. There wasn't a single wrinkle on the front or back of his palm, and the powerful feeling it exuded was as if he had returned to his peak.

Of course, returning to his peak was just an illusion, but Leo also felt that his body had recovered to 40%, almost halfway back to normal.

Before going to sleep, the body has only recovered about 20% of its capacity; after a night's sleep, the recovery rate doubles!

"Your soul, which was left in the Shadow World, was affected by an external force and was kicked away by me. What exactly did you encounter?" Yaoyao punched Leo's earlobe, who was still in a daze. Leo must have encountered high-level energy.

Did you kick me?

Leo glanced sideways at Yaoyao. When he was finally assimilated by the golden pool, he was rescued by another force. Leo never expected that the person who saved him was Yaoyao.

"That's not important at all. Tell me quickly what you encountered?" Yaoyao skillfully changed the subject.

"After I fell asleep, I came across a golden pool of water, and being soaked in it felt incredibly blissful..."

Leo recounted his dream experience to Yaoyao. If Yaoyao hadn't rescued him in time, he would have been assimilated by the golden pool. Leo didn't know what the consequences of assimilation would be, but he imagined it wouldn't be a good thing.

"Golden pool water??"

What is this?

Yaoyao looked at Leo with a puzzled expression. In the Shadow World, Leo's shadow was assimilated by a power, but Yaoyao didn't know what kind of power it was.

"I don't know either, I need to look it up."

Leo looked at his body with burning eyes. A good night's sleep and a soak in the golden pool would be equivalent to seventy years of recovery.

If he sleeps a few more times, his body will fully recover!

His body was severely damaged at its core. Under normal circumstances, he could only recover little by little, and there was no way to recover quickly. This was an injury that even Level-Six Stigmata Great Wizard with Undying Body had no solution for.

But now, the inexplicably appearing golden pool of water can rapidly heal such severe injuries; this is truly miraculous.

Once he figured out what this golden pool of water was, Leo was confident he could restore his body to its peak condition.

He was fed up with the feeling of his body being weak and powerless. Although he had recovered less than 50% and could not activate his Bloodline True Body, his strength had indeed recovered to some extent.

The feeling of regaining my strength is wonderful!

"My lord, I have something to discuss with you."

Just as Leo was eager to study the golden pool, Tang Fei's voice rang out from outside the door.

"Come in," Leo said.

Tang Fei, standing outside the door, was slightly taken aback, because the dean's voice was no longer hoarse and aged, but had become young and magnetic.

However, now is not the time to dwell on these matters. Tang Fei pushed open the door and reported to Leo, "Sir, twenty-three giant typhoons have appeared in the Eastern Ocean and are heading towards the land. The level of danger has exceeded the normal capacity to deal with them. The government has requested that our academy step in to resolve this typhoon crisis."

Leo took the report from Tang Fei. Although shocked by the unprecedented scale of this typhoon, he still gave the order:

"Send one hundred level-two Gulu Beast over there, along with a group of students, for an outdoor observation and learning tour."

In the past, before wizards existed, natural disasters beyond the reach of reality were addressed by relocating people and assets. However, with the advent of wizards, wizarding academies can now send people to resolve these issues, eliminating these natural disasters at their root.

As for the allocation of resources within the academy, no one except Leo has that authority, which is why the application was submitted to Leo.

Watching Tang Fei leave quickly, Leo stopped and said to Yaoyao, "I need to go back to the Knowledge Trading Platform to check information. It'll take about a year. You stay at the academy and handle everything."

"Don't worry, I'll make sure the college thrives."

Upon hearing that Leo was leaving for a year and handing over full authority over the academy to him, Yaoyao's little bottom started wiggling uncontrollably even before Leo had left.

Leo looked at Yaoyao with concern, truly afraid that he would go crazy and blow up the academy. Don't doubt it, he really could do it.

"You still don't trust me? I've watched these students grow up; I love them the most."

Yaoyao patted her small chest and pushed Leo's ear hard, trying to push Leo away quickly.

"Don't go too far, I'll check when I get back."

Before stepping into the spatial passage, Leo reminded him with some unease. If this experience hadn't been so astonishing and extraordinary, Leo would never have left.

"Tch, you're not even home, what right do you have to tell me what to do?"

The spatial passage closed, Leo completely disappeared from the New Earth. Yaoyao excitedly pulled out a small wooden stick, looking like a great general about to step onto the battlefield.
