Chapter Summaries

Leo began establishing a wizard academy on Earth, arranging a mass selection of students and a route to train them in the Wizard World. He selected three physically gifted young people for accelerated wizard training as construction of the academy began.

• Leo ordered the leaders to use crystal balls to identify the thousand high school students with the best base attributes, and let each leader recommend five descendants without ranking.

• The first leader brought twenty healthy young people to Leo, who used his pressure to test them and dismissed all but three who remained standing.
• Leo gave the three bloodline enhancement potions that would raise them to low-level wizard apprentices, and they drank the potions and writhed in agony.

Meng Jie was collected from his village by a large military and government delegation after his unusual college entrance exam, and his family received promises of support. As he was transported toward Heavenly Capital, Meng Jie realized he had no idea what school he was going to and feared he was being taken for a sinister purpose.

• Meng Youde opened the door to a crowd of officials and soldiers after recognizing the village chief's voice, and they asked Meng Jie to show his admission letter.

• The aircraft landed at a military base, where soldiers transferred Meng Jie to a military vehicle bound for an unknown destination.

Meng Jie, Shi Xiang, and Liu Xinqi arrived at the New Earth Wizard Apprentice Training Academy, where entering the grounds caused them to faint and revealed their unusual aptitude.

• Tuo Xi told Leo that all 1,050 students had arrived, and Leo assigned Tuo Xi, Tang Fei, Ke Long, and Yaoyao to manage the opening ceremony.

At the academy’s opening ceremony, Tuo Xi, Tang Fei, and Ke Long introduced the school while King Yaoyao welcomed the 1,050 new students with healing, energy-restoring fruit and made them run to earn it. Leo watched from the mountainside and reviewed the students’ files, finding that their mental power suited them for the Elemental Wizard path more than body refinement.

• Meng Jie reunited with Liu Xinqi and Shi Xiang as the new students gathered on the field.
• Tuo Xi introduced himself, Tang Fei, and Ke Long as the academy’s teaching assistants and residential teachers, and explained that the students could not meet Dean Leo until they grew stronger.
• King Yaoyao arrived atop a Gulu Beast, declared himself the academy’s boss, and presented fruit that could heal illnesses and increase the students’ energy.
• Yaoyao ordered the students and the three teachers to run ten laps for a chance to choose fruit first, and they rushed onto the track.
• Leo watched the runners and studied the students’ files, noting that their mental power qualified them for wizard apprenticeships and their attributes favored the Elemental Wizard path.

Leo designed an exhausting training and study schedule for the new students, who began their academy education with punishing physical drills and an overwhelming lesson in wizard script. The students ended the day exhausted and faced another early morning of training.

• Leo revised the students’ schedule to allow only six hours of rest and planned intensive training for them.
• Meng Jie, Liu Xinqi, and Shi Xiang completed a ten-thousand-meter run, received energy fruit from Yaoyao, and discovered its restorative effects.

• A Gulu Beast taught the students wizard civilization’s written language at great speed, leaving Meng Jie and the others overwhelmed by the material.

The new students endured brutal training and lessons, then took their first monthly exams, where Hu Jianxing placed first and Meng Jie came second. Meanwhile, Leo rewarded the leader of the outside group for gathering books and classified materials, and planned to recruit top scientists to expand his power.

• The Gulu Beast teacher told the students they could earn knowledge crystals by ranking first in three consecutive exams or gaining the dean’s recognition, and said the dean could destroy the world alone.
• Meng Jie told Liu Xinqi and Shi Xiang about wizard lifespans and the Gulu Beast lords’ strength, explaining that he used half an hour of sleep to study and talk with them.
• After another half month of training, Hu Jianxing earned perfect scores and first place, Meng Jie ranked second, Liu Xinqi placed 108th, and Shi Xiang placed 456th.
• The students learned that their exam rankings would determine their supplies and access to spell formations, and that contacting their families required strict secrecy about the academy.
• The top leader reported that the requested books, nuclear facilities, and classified files had been put to use, and Leo rewarded his group with food and promised future benefits.
• Leo began reviewing the collected books, focused on nuclear fusion and high-energy theories, and considered gathering the best scientific researchers to work for him.

Hu Jianxing became the academy’s first low-level wizard apprentice, met the mysterious headmaster, and began grueling advanced training. He then solved a witchcraft node and cast his first spell in front of the students.

• Hu Jianxing’s breakthrough filled his room with energy, and King Yaoyao announced he was the first student to become a low-level wizard apprentice.
• Hu Jianxing used his reward to meet the headmaster, but remembered only seeing a figure before waking up a day later in his room.
• The academy moved Hu Jianxing to a new class to study the elements, then increased his training and cut his sleep to one hour a day.
• After Hu Jianxing solved a witchcraft node, he gathered air currents and formed a small fireball in his palm, astonishing the students.

Leo expanded his academy on New Earth, prepared a thousand wizard apprentices for the Wizard World, and led them through a spatial passage. The apprentices arrived unconscious at the former Purple Flame Academy, where Charlotte and a large welcoming force awaited them.

• A Gulu Beast instructor stopped Hu Jianxing from casting a fireball in public, while Leo ordered wizard culture to be introduced gradually and set the year's enrollment quota.
• Yaoyao raised the academy's energy concentration with high-grade materials, and Meng Jie later became the second student to break through as a low-level wizard apprentice.
• Over four years, one thousand apprentices reached the required level, and Leo opened a spatial passage after they chose whether to leave New Earth.
• Leo led the apprentices through the passage to the former Purple Flame Academy, where they collapsed unconscious as Charlotte waited with wizards and hundreds of thousands of Gulu Beasts.

• The Gulu Beast teacher told the students that wizards had destroyed its home, Jeft World, and urged them to study wizard history and remain cautious.
• The teacher began to say that Leo’s status protected the students, then stopped as tears briefly appeared in its eyes.

The four students were punished for speculating about Dean Leo, while the apprentices began learning independently under his guidance. After returning to New Earth to avoid visitors while recovering his strength, Leo agreed to meet with the Academy of Sciences, whose researchers sought knowledge of advanced civilizations.

• Meng Jie, Liu Xinqi, and Shi Xiang found Hu Jianxing in the library reading History of Wizard Civilization, and the four discussed how the dean could control New Earth without being a stigmata wizard.
• A Gulu Beast punished the four for speaking ill of the dean by binding them and hanging them outside the library for a day.
• Leo told the twelve teachers not to kill the students, and the apprentices began studying independently after seeing Hu Jianxing and other top students at the library.
• Leo gave the apprentices brief advice about finding their own paths and valuing knowledge, then returned to New Earth after a month in the Wizard World to avoid visitors while his strength recovered.
• Tang Fei told Leo that the Academy of Sciences wanted to learn about advanced civilizations, and Leo ordered her to arrange a video conference.

Leo taught New Earth's leading scientists about microscopic science and elemental energy, then learned that their artificial intelligence research was far below what he needed. He revealed that he wanted an AI with a true life and body, while Yaoyao secretly concealed something from him.

• Leo met New Earth's scientists by video conference, though they could see only static because his force field overwhelmed their equipment.
• Leo chose microscopic science as their starting point and spent a month explaining higher-level knowledge until the scientists had to stop to recover and study it.
• Leo asked the computer engineers about their progress, and they estimated that human-level AI might take another hundred to two hundred years to develop.

• Leo advised the engineers to improve their strength and expand their imagination, then ended the conference.
• Yaoyao supported Leo's AI research despite the Supreme Lord's progress, while secretly hiding something from him.

Leo secured control of New Earth's hydrogen bombs and built an academy whose graduates gradually gained influence around the world. Forty years after the academy began, Hu Jianxing became the first student from New Earth to advance to Level One Formal Wizard, then arranged for his first-group classmates to visit home.

• Meng Jie reunited with his elderly parents and learned that Meng Mengmeng had disappeared shortly before her college entrance examination.
• Meng Jie tracked Meng Mengmeng to a fortified villa complex and called Hu Jianxing, Shi Xiang, and Liu Xinqi for help.
• The four friends decided to infiltrate the complex without alerting the academy, while Meng Jie tracked his sister through their bloodline connection.
• The villa's alarms exposed the group, and machine guns and rockets opened fire as they fought their way through the defenses.
• Nearby residents livestreamed the battle as the four wizards withstood gunfire and destroyed the bunkers and buildings within minutes.

After a battle exposed wizard powers to the public, Leo arrived and punished those responsible for kidnapping Meng Jie’s sister, while also ordering Meng Jie and his friends to return to the academy for judgment. He sent Meng Jie’s sister with them, declaring that her talent meant she was destined to become a wizard.

• The battle’s recordings spread widely, while people approaching the villa complex collapsed under the pressure of Leo’s aura.

Leo ordered the public disclosure of wizards and the execution of the Bai Clan for kidnapping Meng Mengmeng, while sparing Hu Jianxing and the other students with fines. The government revealed wizards and opened annual academy selection to the public, and Leo ended online demands for equal access by offering admission to anyone who mastered the apprentices’ textbooks in one day.

• Leo ordered Tang Fei to reveal wizards publicly, execute the Bai Clan before the apprentices, and fine Hu Jianxing and the others after frightening them.
• Yaoyao warned Leo that a surge of Wizard Apprentices would strain resources, so Leo agreed to have Charlotte develop the territory and use apprentices to clear beasts and serve as city lords.

• The government announced the existence of wizards, explained humanity’s memory loss and transmigration, and began selecting four thousand college entrance exam candidates each year for the wizard academy.
• After the public accepted the news and online users demanded access to wizard education, Leo posted apprentice textbooks and offered academy admission to anyone who mastered them within a day.

Leo dreamed of a golden pool that nearly assimilated him, but after Yaoyao rescued him, his body had recovered to 40%. He left New Earth for a year to investigate the pool on the Knowledge Trading Platform, leaving Yaoyao in charge of the academy as it prepared to address a typhoon crisis.

• Thirty years passed as witchcraft spread across New Earth, while 123 apprentices advanced to Official Wizards in the Wizard World.

• Tang Fei reported that twenty-three massive typhoons were approaching land, and Leo ordered a hundred level-two Gulu Beasts and students to respond and learn.
• Leo left through a spatial passage to research the golden pool for about a year, entrusting the academy to Yaoyao.

Leo learned that the golden pool was New Earth's Land of Rules, whose world energy could heal him and make him a World Lord, but he chose to pursue the energy without binding himself to the planet. He returned to the wizard academy and reunited with the Tree of Life, whose growth had made the floating island part of its roots.

• Leo paid ten thousand energy crystals and materials to learn that the golden pool was world energy in New Earth's Land of Rules, and that assimilating it would make him a World Lord.
• Leo concluded that New Earth's World Consciousness had chosen him because his wizard rules and apprentices could help the planet evolve, and that his absorption of its energy had caused the unprecedented typhoons.
• Leo decided he would take the planetary energy to heal himself but would not become a World Lord, since he intended to advance as a Stigmata Wizard instead.
• Leo returned to the wizard academy and told only Charlotte that he was back.
• Leo visited the Tree of Life, which had grown over a thousand meters tall and rooted itself through the floating island, and calmed it when its excited shaking threatened to damage the island.

After seventy years, the Tree of Life had fused with the Godslaying Staff and was absorbing the World Tree branch’s energy as Leo recovered from his injuries. Back on New Earth, Leo learned that planetary origin energy could heal him and strengthen his Vengeance Giant form, raising the possibility of reaching the level-three limit.

• Leo checked the Tree of Life’s progress and learned that its absorption of the World Tree branch had accelerated, bringing his new staff closer to completion.

• Leo considered using the energy to push his Vengeance Giant form toward its limit.

Leo discovered that New Earth retained energy released by dead wizard apprentices and planned to use wizard apprentices and Gulu Beasts to control disasters. He entered the Land of Rules again, where the world consciousness offered to heal him, while Yaoyao prepared to act on the golden energy spreading across Leo’s statue in the Shadow World.

• Yaoyao proposed sending wizard apprentices and Gulu Beasts to New Earth to help manage natural disasters, and told Leo that he could sense energy lingering in the planet’s air.
• Yaoyao admitted that over four hundred wizard apprentices had died during a typhoon, and Leo warned him not to cause such losses again.
• Leo went to sleep and entered the Land of Rules with some awareness, then spoke with New Earth’s timid world consciousness.
• The world consciousness promised to heal Leo if he became its world lord, and Leo entered the golden pool before its power overwhelmed his awareness.
• Yaoyao appeared in the Shadow World and summoned hungry shadows toward the golden energy spreading across Leo’s statue.

After recovering 90% of his body, Leo organized a response to disasters he had secretly caused and expanded wizard recruitment to build a force for New Earth. Thirteen years later, a hundred thousand Intermediate Wizard Apprentices and a hundred Official Wizards returned, and the overcrowded academy sent its wizards home.

• Leo awoke from assimilation with his body restored to 90%, then restrained his aura when Tang Fei entered and reported earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis, and typhoons.
