Wizards: Starting with the Refined Meditation Technique Guide

Chapter 71 Second Awakening of Mental Power Talent

After answering all three research labs' questions, Leo rummaged through his storage pouch.

The medicinal ingredients inside have been almost fully refined.

There are about two thousand magic stones left.

After a moment's thought, Leo decided to take advantage of the time to conduct a second test of his mental talent.

Leo's schedule was extremely tight.

Learning potions to enhance spiritual energy, learning combat spells, crafting potions to complement spells, crafting potions to strengthen oneself, working in the research lab, and now there's the recruitment of people from the Tower of Dawn... oh, and the delivery work for that official wizard on the island.

With the research lab work to do next, Leo will definitely be very busy, so now that he has some time, he'll take care of one of the tasks ahead of schedule.

Leo took out the map he had bought from the Woodpecker's Hut.

The magic stones for this map were worth the money.

The location of the second mental power awakening test site is also recorded on it.

Mental Strength Testing Center

This is the only place in the Tower of Dawn officially used for testing mental talents.

However, the building here is small, with two floors. The first floor is about the same size as the hut where Leo held his gathering in Esmond.

Leo walked into the first floor, a relatively empty space, where only a female wizard apprentice was waiting.

"Hello, I would like to undergo a second mental talent assessment."

Upon hearing this, the wizard apprentice at the counter looked up at Leo and said, "Okay, please wait over there."

The wizard apprentice pointed to a row of seats next to him.

At this moment, only one young man was sitting here reading.

Leo went to the waiting area and sat down next to the young man.

The young man had long, blond hair tied back with a black cloth strip. He was sitting in a chair, flipping through a book.

Leo's gaze swept over the book in the young man's hands.

Basic Potions.

Leo thought to himself, 'We wizards are really like the top students in school in my previous life; we never miss a single opportunity to learn.'

Seemingly noticing Leo's gaze, the young man looked up at Leo and said, "Hello, friend, my name is Fried, from the Nova Gathering."

Leo was a little surprised to hear that the other person was from the Nova Gathering. He smiled and said, "My name is Leo, from the Esmond Gathering. It's nice to meet you."

Fried closed his book, stretched, and said, "Pretending to read is tiring. Let me tell you a secret, Leo, my friend, actually, although the wizards of our Nova Gathering like to carry books with them when they go out, they don't really like reading."

Leo: "..."

Although Fried didn't explain why, Leo vaguely guessed why they brought the books.

However, Fried was too lazy to pretend when he directly pointed this out to a stranger.

Leo said, "After all, Wizard Nova really loves reading."

"Hey, you must be a freshman, right? How come you know about our mentors?" Fried said in surprise. Then he added, "But that makes sense. Our mentors at the Nova Gathering are the star wizards of the entire Tower of Dawn."

When Nova was mentioned, Fried's face lit up with admiration.

Leo said, "Aren't you afraid that your mentor, Wizard Nova, will find out if you just tell people you don't like reading?"

"I'm not afraid." A smile flickered across Fried's handsome face, and a lock of golden hair tied back swayed slightly. He said, "Professor Nova said that we don't need to cater to his preferences. He can tell the difference between those who genuinely enjoy reading and those who pretend to."

"Mentor Nova is truly an excellent and outstanding person. It's no exaggeration to say that he is the star wizard of our Tower of Dawn."

Fried then sighed and said, "But even a star wizard, with extensive knowledge of spells and disciplines, can't help me when it comes to mental strength testing."

"If Instructor Nova can help me with the testing, I can save the cost of a thousand magic stones for the examination."

Because the wait was so long, Leo and Fried started chatting.

Fried was a graduate student at the Nova Gathering, and he became a wizard in his second year at the Tower of Dawn.

When he arrived at the Tower of Dawn, his mental talent was measured at level 2, barely passing. Later, his mental talent grew to nearly level 4, so Nova deduced that he must have had a second awakening of his mental talent and sent him here for testing.

However, the inspection fee is very expensive, requiring one thousand magic stones.

It was only after becoming a wizard that Fried slowly collected a thousand magic stones.

When Fried brought up this topic, he sighed and said, "Originally, I didn't want to spend magic stones on this kind of thing, but many research labs don't accept level 2 mental power talents, which has affected my learning progress, so I had no choice but to take the test."

"It's a pity that my mental talent level is still not high enough. If I could become a wizard within three months like you, Leo, I could get two thousand magic stones now and complete the second mental talent awakening test much earlier."

"In this way, the growth of my spiritual energy won't be delayed for so long."

Leo then asked curiously, "Fried, I noticed that the initial mental talent test was quite simple. Why couldn't we have our instructors directly conduct the second mental talent test?"

Fried said, "The second mental talent test is different from the first one; it will be more rigorous. Moreover, it will not only test your mental talent level but also your mental traits."

"Special qualities related to mental strength?"

Leo looked puzzled.

"That's right," Fried said. "Mental strength is divided into many traits. The second awakening of mental strength talent is just one of them."

"In fact, some people's secondary mental power talent is delayed. It is not activated immediately after the first practice of the basic meditation method, but only after several years or even more than ten years will the secondary mental power talent awaken."

"By conducting a secondary mental awakening test, it can be directly determined whether you possess this trait."

"In addition, there are innate spiritual energy that stabilizes the physique, and the spiritual energy that increases the physique through feeding. These are all spiritual traits that help wizards improve their spiritual power."

"These mental traits often cannot be tested through conventional mental talent tests."

"By the way, some mental traits are also related to one's own race."

Fried spoke eloquently.

"People like you Pros have very special mental qualities. The longer you maintain a high fighting spirit, the more peculiar changes will occur in your mental energy. These changes will allow you to absorb mental energy faster, improve your learning ability, and accelerate the learning of spells."

"That's why many Pros people like to go to places where there is fighting, because they instinctively know that it will benefit them."

"However, only a few people in the Tower of Dawn know this."

Fried said, "I heard that from my mentor, Nova."
