Elite Mages' Academy

Chapter 616: Start Of Training

“There is a limit to how much information a human’s brain can store. Even if you’re still very far away from that limit, there are still side effects to absorbing large amounts of information in one go. After all, you’re not actually a god, and can’t maintain that state of pure energy forever. In truth, even if you’ve already absorbed everything from those books, I recommend that you only use the knowledge when you need it, and not use it excessively in a short amount of time,” Bell said strictly.

Xiao Lin touched his head. He tried to recall the higher level medicines that were taught in class, and the relevant information immediately came up in his mind. It seemed to be a response to his intentions, but when he tried to remember more, his mind immediately shook, and a soft pain exploded forward. historical

Looking at Xiao Lin’s pained expression, Bell opened up her arms and said, “It seems like you understand. All that information is currently deep within your memory. It’s just like a classified document, and you can retrieve it at any time, but if you retrieve too much in a moment, your brain will be damaged, so there is some danger to it.”

Xiao Lin jumped in fright, suddenly raising his eyebrow. His tone was unkind. “Hold on, didn’t you tell me that there wouldn’t be any danger if it was done by me?”

“Huh? Did I say that? Why don’t I remember it? Big Brother, don’t lie to me!” Bell blinked her cute and innocent eyes at Xiao Lin, her expression one of complete innocence.

Xiao Lin’s lips twitched as he shook his head helplessly. He knew that there was no point in pressing her on the matter. No matter what, all that information was already stored in his brain, and it would be a great help when he needed it.

As for whether or not the choice was worth it, it was hard to say. Xiao Lin checked his lifespan, and he still had ten years left. Even though he had reduced his usage of Myth this time, it had still taken away ten years. However, just like what Bell said, there was no difference between ten and twenty years.

So, Xiao Lin no longer needed to attend medicinal studies. With the tournament not far away, he threw more of his time into his training. As for the mockery and laughter a lot of people privately directed at him, he did not care. After all, in most of their eyes, the guy who confidently asked about an S-rank evaluation at the start of class quickly stopped attending the class. It was obviously a retreat after failing to grasp the difficulty of everything.

Taking into account the urgency of the tournament, the academy had made the appropriate adjustments for the current new students, such as the cancellation of the monthly examinations. They did not want the participants to encounter any accidents during the examination. However, Xiao Lin could feel that it was probably targeting him, since his lifespan did not allow him to even die another time.

Other than that, some of the unnecessary courses had been cut out of their regular schedule. The additional time was allocated to training, and their training companions were the fourth-year graduates, because the tournament was split into fourth- and first-year components. Of course, most of the time, the fourth-years were just sparring partners.

For some reason, the tournaments put more of an emphasis on the first-years. After all, new students represented future potential, such as Lilith, who had stood out in the last tournament. Due to that woman, Judge Academy strengthened itself. If no one found a way to stop Lilith in the next few years, she would be the genius of Judge Academy in the future.

...

Because of Bell’s interference, when Xiao Lin belatedly appeared on the training field, it was already the third day of training. There were obviously a few silent words about Xiao Lin’s lack of attendance, but no one voiced it out loud. When he saw who the training instructor was, Xiao Lin laughed.

Their trainer was Captain Yu Mei. It was hard to blame the others for not voicing any opinions. Everyone knew that the woman was on Xiao Lin’s side, but Yu Mei did not give Xiao Lin any special treatment. She merely nodded at Xiao Lin reporting in, and the training started after that.

“Other than increasing your various combat powers, this training will also determine the order that you will fight in. Based on regulations, the individual and secondary profession portions cannot feature repeat members, but the team portion is not affected,” Yu Mei said.

“Then I’ll just participate in the individual fights. My spells are suitable for individual combat,” Class Four’s Han Manman interrupted.

Yu Mei glared at her before coldly saying, “I will be arranging the participation list based on your results during this period. It’s not up to you what you take part in. Other than that, the participants will not be constant throughout every match, as I will swap you out based on your condition.”

“The substitutes will also gain a lot less rewards.” After pausing, Yu Mei added that to warn anyone against deliberately underperforming to avoid the tournament, but still obtain the prizes.

However, Yu Mei had been staring at Han Manman as she said that. It caused Han Manman to feel obviously awkward, but she puffed up her chest and laughed. “The results will be the same anyway, so I’ll definitely be participating.”

“I really don’t know where her confidence comes from.” Chen Dao, who had always been at odds with her, mumbled at a volume that everyone could hear.

“You are stronger than me in skill, but it might not be the case in one-on-one combat. You would probably only be able to beat Gu Xiaoyue,” Han Manman mocked.

“Try now if you dare!”

“Fine!”

“Enough!”

“Han Manman, shut up!”

“Chen Dao, you should speak less too!”

Even though it seemed like a fight was about to break out, Yu Mei did not seem to want to make a move. It was as if she was used to it, the others like Cheng Ming immediately went up to stop it.

The monitors were not usually completely united, and would usually have conflicts between themselves. Suddenly gathering to fight together in a team would definitely draw some conflict.

There were some upper-year students and lecturers observing them, and all of them sighed and shook their heads at the scene, as if they were worried about the tournament this time.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Suddenly, the heavy sound of a blade hitting against wood could be heard. It stood out in the noisy training hall, so everyone’s gazes shifted there.

Xiao Lin was holding a training sword and waving his sword to practice. During that period of time, since he had used up more time on medicinal studies, he had gone rusty after a few days away from swordsmanship training, so Xiao Lin had planned on getting his body back to its previous state.
