Cultivators at the Wizarding Academy

Chapter 3 The Panda Man Carrying a Bamboo Basket

Tai'an chose a room on the third floor as the master bedroom, and took out bedding, luggage, and various daily necessities from his spatial ring, gradually filling the entire room.

Space equipment is extremely rare, and even ancient noble families regard it as an important strategic resource.

Most space equipment has a volume of less than one cubic meter.

Owners mostly store weapons or valuables in them; even gold is not eligible to be stored in spatial equipment.

Who would have thought that the spatial ring in Tai'an contained only some worthless junk?

There's no other reason than that it's spacious and allows for flexibility.

The spatial ring on Tai'an's hand was not a gift from his family, but something he crafted himself. Its interior is a sphere with a radius of two meters.

The refining techniques of cultivators far surpass those of the spellcaster civilization on Aolan Star. Even using inferior scraps and beginner-level refining methods, they can still produce masterpieces far ahead of their time.

The boy carefully laid out the bedding, then pushed the heavy wardrobe and placed it in the corner.

Before the house was even tidy, Tai'an rushed out, sensing the location of the spiritual marker, his rapidly moving figure becoming a blur.

In front of the Violet Academy gate, a panda carrying a bamboo basket stood by the roadside, attracting the attention of passersby.

"What an adorable bear!"

"A rare species..."

"The Monokuma-man..."

The daring girl went around to the panda man's back and patted its big head.

Sensing no malice, the panda didn't do anything rash, turning its head with an innocent look and saying, "Madam, please stop your impolite behavior."

"You can speak Common Tongue too!" came the exclamation from the middle-aged woman beside her.

"I am the butler of a great nobleman, so you'd better be more polite," Mussophie emphasized her status.

"Our family would also like a butler like you. Could you introduce me to someone from your clan?" The blond boy approached and struck up a conversation.

Mussofi paused for a few seconds: "My race is small in number and we generally don't interact with humans."

"Oh, that's a real shame." The blond boy smiled suavely.

Orcs are not popular in human kingdoms. Of course, the endlessly charming pandaren are an exception.

Mussophie waited a short while at the academy gate, where she was surrounded by layers upon layers of onlookers, including young girls. With more people around, her courage grew accordingly.

"Hey! You guys move aside..."

"Don't pull my fur!"

"Annoying human females."

The panda butler, utterly exasperated, covered his head and fled, finally shaking them off. Panting, he leaned against a magic lamppost, muttering to himself, "Looks like I'm lost. Young Master should be able to find me, right?"

Level 0 magic trick, mental coordinates, perfect for finding people.

The figure flashed past the gates of Tai'an Academy, distorting the light in its path. Its astonishing speed instantly attracted the attention of two instructors from the Warrior Division.

"Did someone just pass by?"

"Yes, I'm sure I didn't see it wrong."

Various animal-drawn vehicles travel on the wide highway.

Horse-drawn carriages and oxcarts make up the vast majority of vehicles, with a smaller number being dragon-beasts. If you're lucky, you might even see magic-powered vehicles flying overhead.

"Musophie!"

"Young Master!"

The two met and gave each other a warm hug, patting each other on the back.

"I didn't tell you to wait at the academy gate. What are you doing here?"

"Young master, women are so annoying! Some pull my fur, some tug my ears, I really want to punch them," the panda complained angrily.

"I wanted to too," Tai'an agreed wholeheartedly. "When I asked you to buy groceries, what did you buy?"

"Look!" The panda crouched down, revealing a bamboo basket on its back filled with tender bamboo shoots, earthworm leg meat, red tomatoes, green scallions, yellow ginger, and cuckoo bird eggs...

"Great! Big cities have such a wide variety of ingredients." Tai An patted Mussofi on the shoulder with satisfaction.

The unusual pair traveling together attracted the attention of everyone along the way. Wizards and rare beastmen were both seldom seen in ordinary times.

"Excuse me, spellcaster, are you interested in selling your orc servant? I guarantee you will be satisfied with the price."

The portly businessman sported a mustache, was impeccably dressed, and wore a large, exquisite gemstone ring on his finger.

"I'm sorry, I don't need the money." Tai'an quickened his pace without turning his head.

"One thousand gold coins, I'll offer one thousand gold coins! Please think it over carefully." The portly merchant tried to give chase, but unexpectedly lost track of the two in the blink of an eye.

Taian cast a light-distorting concealment spell on Musophie. The two ran at breakneck speed, leaving transparent silhouettes in the sunlight.

The journey was smooth and unimpeded, and we returned to the gates of the academy.

Under the influence of the Eye of Truth and the Dust of Revelation, the two were forced to reveal themselves.

Tai'an showed his student ID to the guard and passed through smoothly.

The effects of dispelling the illuminating dust dissipated, and the two re-entered stealth mode.

"Young master, slow down, wait for me!" The panda man quickly moved his short legs.

The two raced each other, enjoying the thrill of speed, and joyfully chased and weaved through the woods.

A large tree blocked his way, but Tai'an defied gravity and charged vertically up the tree trunk at a ninety-degree angle.

When the human body absorbs magic essence, it generates an adhesive force, allowing it to adhere to objects.

It sounds simple, but in reality, no one but him could do it.

Magic Element, a natural energy defined by cultivators. Its properties are chaotic and complex; the human body can only transform and utilize it, not directly absorb it. Forcibly absorbing it will cause immense pain, leading to various mutations in the flesh and blood.

The most common types are petrification, petrification, and so on.

Cultivators typically absorb natural energy during the early stages of life. They utilize the innate plasticity of an infant's body, enduring the pain of natural energy erosion repeatedly until they adapt.

This is the Qi Refining and Foundation Building stage.

The longer you wait until your body is fully developed, the less likely you are to succeed.

It is worth mentioning that when the body's natural energy is full, it will enter a wonderful state, greatly improving all-round qualities, and possessing great power in every move.

The memories passed down by cultivators are called the "human-immortal state".
