But after hearing Ron's words, the other person's eyes, which had begun to redden, suddenly cleared. Those peach-blossom eyes stared intently at the boy standing outside the wizard tower's defensive magic array, and his slightly shrill voice now uttered a somewhat coquettish tone:

"Oh, it's you. Mr. Latour mentioned yesterday that a young man would be coming here today. I was curious about what kind of guy could attract that gentleman's attention. Now it seems he's not so great."

Ron could feel the other's sapphire-like eyes moving up and down, constantly scanning his body.

But the somewhat harsh tone made him frown.

I don't understand why this guy is targeting me like this. Although he did say some inappropriate things just now, it's because the other person does have those kinds of characteristics.

"Sir, please let me in, otherwise it would be bad if I delayed Mr. Latour's business."

Upon hearing this, the young man opposite him raised an eyebrow, and his previously scrutinizing gaze turned cold.

Meeting Ron's green eyes, the young man, exuding an effeminate aura, spoke, but his tone had lost its previous gentleness. His already delicate voice had become sharp under the deliberate emphasis:

"Kid, are you threatening me?"

Ron listened to the other person's words, staring blankly at the guy in front of him, his eyes filled with a kind of pity and sympathy as if he were looking at a fool:

"Sir, on what basis do you think I'm threatening you? Let's put aside whether we know each other before, just look at the present situation. You are indeed blocking my way, and I'm merely reminding you to step aside so that we can both have some convenience."

"What if I don't allow it? What will you do then?"

The young man opposite was like a child who was obsessively fixated on a particular issue, insisting on getting to the bottom of it.

Ron immediately didn't want to argue with the other person any further, so he stood silently in place, closed his eyes, and began to meditate.

Upon seeing this, the young man opposite him, whose expression had been defiant, now wore a look of conflict.

Whether it was because he was conflicted about the man's attitude or what he had just said, Ron had no interest in paying attention to him. He knew he would be able to get in today, so why waste words with this man?

Even if you're late, it just means you'll be a dog for one day.

Rather than continuing to argue with someone who couldn't even speak clearly, Ron would rather experience a day as a dog.

"Alright, Narissis, let this little guy in, or Mr. Latour will get angry."

Just as the two sides were locked in a stalemate, a voice that was more charming and gentle than the young man in front of them entered their ears.

Upon hearing this, Naris's face immediately fell, and he reluctantly began to manipulate the wizard tower's entry and exit token in his hand.

Then Ron saw a crack in the door, just wide enough for one person to pass through, appear on the light screen in front of him.

"Come in, little one, Mr. Latour has been waiting for you all day."

Hearing the words beside him, Ron felt reassured. He glanced at the young man named Naris who was staring intently at him not far away, but didn't have time to pay attention to him. He strode straight in.

This doesn't mean that his guard has lowered.

Rather, it was because this was, after all, an academy, and what he was facing was certainly beyond his ability to handle. In that case, he might as well do as the other party said. At least within the academy, the chances of anyone daring to make a move were slim.

Of course, this doesn't include the mastermind who had been sending people to hunt him down.

As his body passed through the crack in the door, Ron instantly felt as if he had entered another world.

Energy particles, many times more concentrated than those in the outside world, spread and diffused through the air.

Even without sitting down and closing his eyes to meditate, he could feel the energy particles in the air entering his body like a waterspout.

"If I could cultivate here indefinitely, wouldn't my cultivation speed be...?"

A strong thought surged in Ron's mind: he wanted to stay here forever, to stay here forever and cultivate.

After all, compared to that small wooden hut that was called a dormitory, he could feel a completely different world just by standing outside the Wushi Tower. If he were to actually enter the Wizard Tower, he wondered what kind of scene those wizard arrays and energy-gathering arrays, which had been engraved for countless years, would be.

Looking at the towering, crimson wizard tower before him, a burning glint flashed in Ron's eyes.

"Little fellow, come with me, Lord Latour. I happen to have some free time today. He instructed me yesterday to take you to meet him as soon as you arrive. By the way, Narissis is my nephew, and Philomi is his cousin. He's being unreasonable and thought you stole his cousin's opportunity to enter Mr. Latour's wizard tower. I apologize to you on his behalf."

Just as Ron was observing the wizard tower in front of him, that gentle and charming voice came to his ear again.

Looking in the direction of the sound, he saw a slender figure standing not far from him, eyes slightly narrowed, looking at him with a smile.

Seeing that he was looking over, the other person even reached out and waved to him, signaling him to come over.

Seeing the other person's actions and recalling what he had just heard, Ron narrowed his pale green eyes slightly and, with a smile on his face, walked over as the other person indicated.

Upon getting closer, he found that the person in front of him was indeed as he had predicted: a man.

"Good day, sir. May I ask your name?"

"Snow Vin Dismay, you can just call me Snow."

Ron nodded and asked, "Mr. Snow, what brings Lord Latour here?"

"Hehe, of course it's about your tasks and study arrangements. I don't know the specifics either. Anyway, you'll know when you meet Mr. Latour. Well, let's not talk about it here. Otherwise, we'll waste Mr. Latour's time, and he'll get angry again."

Ron nodded again, but didn't say anything more.

Seeing his appearance, the middle-aged man named Snow smiled, then turned and walked into the wizard tower.

"Keep up."

Looking back at Narisius, who was still standing in the same spot, Ron didn't hesitate for long and followed him into the tower known as the Crimson Tower.

As he walked, he thought to himself: Luckily, I had looked up the academy's famous wizard towers beforehand, otherwise I probably wouldn't even know where I am today.
