Of course, he would not return during Grace Day. Instead, he would create a little accident and time it perfectly so that he would return after December 5th. This way, he would miss Grace Day, and that would not be a problem, right?
As for the kids wanting to celebrate Grace Day, that was fine too. After all, Grace Day was a celebration that lasted for ten days, so the kids could have fun for the rest of the day. This way, he would not have to celebrate Grace Day alone, and the kids would not have to worry about it either. Baiyi was quite satisfied with his plan.
Of course, there were still two things he needed to take care of before he left. One of them was the issue of his Power Level Certification. The Sorcerer's Association would go on a break around Grace Day, and after that, there would be a lot of work to be done. That night, the Scholar Walker and the others handed Baiyi the thesis he wanted. Baiyi copied the thesis and attached a letter to it, expressing his hope that it would be approved as soon as possible.
The other thing he needed to do was to find a place to travel. Baiyi had already found a place. After his battle with Thaas, he did not let the twenty percent of his power go to waste. Instead, he used it to wander between realms, looking for new realms that had yet to be discovered.
Recently, Baiyi had managed to find a small realm that was suitable for human habitation, despite its low efficiency. Baiyi had managed to find a small realm that was suitable for human habitation!
The realm was small, only about five times the size of Arfin City. It was not a suitable place to establish a state, nor was it suitable for the development of intelligent lifeforms. However, the environment was surprisingly beautiful, with mountains, rivers, forests, and valleys. It was like an otherworldly wonderland that existed in this realm.
It was a perfect place to take the kids on an excursion or adventure. They could enjoy the natural beauty of nature without running into any danger. Baiyi had sent out a small portion of his consciousness to inspect the place, but he did not find any signs of intelligent lifeforms, nor did he detect any energy signatures. At most, there were some cute, lively animals.
All in all, the Voidwalkers agreed that the place was a good place to travel. This time, Baiyi did not receive any psychic signals.
More importantly, this place was not only suitable for sightseeing, but if the conditions allowed it, he could also build his academy here. There was no surveillance from the Church, and there were no complications from the secular world, so Baiyi could do whatever he wanted.
Of course, everything would have to wait until he had explored the place thoroughly. That was why Baiyi was so eager to complete his Power Level Verification as soon as possible. Many of the materials needed to build an inter-realm transporter portal were controlled by the Sorcerer's Association, so he had to purchase them from the Association and report to them before he could build the portal.
Today's class was taught by Mr. Shark. Early in the morning, Baiyi had gone to the Sorcerer's Association branch in Arfin City to submit his thesis. He had to get it done as soon as possible. Aya had sent him a letter yesterday saying that she would be arriving at noon, and she was looking forward to having a family lunch with him. Baiyi did not want his first teacher to be disappointed on her first day.
When he arrived at the Sorcerer's Association, he noticed that the table he had smashed had been replaced by a sturdier steel table. The waitress behind the table gave him a strange look. Baiyi did not say anything and went straight to Fatso's office. When he pushed the door open, he saw Fatso looking at him strangely.
"Can you pass it on for me? These are the theses I need for my Power Level Verification, "Baiyi said, waving the five theses in his hand.
Fatso was taken aback. He invited Baiyi to take a seat, and then he said, "Master Hope, you've already prepared the theses? I just heard that you were going to participate in the Power Level Verification yesterday, and I even placed a small bet on it. You haven't even closed the bet yet, so I didn't expect you to be so fast. "
"I have more time now, after all, so I can work on these things every night," Baiyi replied. He hinted that he was a Soul Armature who did not need to sleep, and then he asked curiously, "But the bet you mentioned …"
"It's just a little entertainment." Fatty smiled. He did not have any doubts about Baiyi's answer. He was just a little surprised, but not to the extent of being puzzled. After all, most of the time, a thesis could be roughly figured out during the course of research. It only needed to be polished and revised before it could be submitted, so it was fine as long as it was a quick process.
Then, Fatso explained to Baiyi about the bet. The gist of it was that sorcerers were humans too, and they had the same needs as normal people. Whenever there was something that caught everyone's attention, it was normal for them to place a bet on it. For example, the bet this time was on whether Baiyi could successfully pass the Immortal-level Verification.
Surprisingly, there were slightly more people who bet on Baiyi not passing the Verification, and the odds were lower than those who bet on Baiyi passing the Verification. It seemed that the name that the Church had created for him was not always effective.
"You know, every sorcerer is proud, and sometimes, that pride can turn into arrogance and conceit," Fatso explained awkwardly.
"I hope there's nothing fishy about this," Baiyi said nonchalantly, not really bothered by what others thought of him.
"You can rest assured about this. The Verification process for the Legendary Level and above is very strict, and there are even representatives from other associations who are involved in the verification. It's absolutely fair, open, and just. No one would dare to tamper with such a small bet," Fatso said confidently.
Then, he looked at the papers on the table curiously and asked, "Can I?"
"Of course, it's a piece of cake. Please advise me," Baiyi said, feigning humility.
Fatso opened Baiyi's first paper, "The Differences and Pros and Cons of Rohserlian Formations and Modern Runes in Practical Application: Mana Utilization, Accuracy of Composition, Controllability, and Other Aspects."
Just the title alone was enough to make Fatso break out in cold sweat. He flipped through the paper and it was like he was reading a book from the heavens. He knew all the words, but when they were put together, he could not understand them at all.
The paper was beyond his comprehension. After that, Fatso turned to the second paper, "Analysis of the Practical Application of Simplified Rune Magic in Modern Sorcerers Battles."
What the hell is a simplified rune? Fatty tried hard to recall for a long time before he remembered that this seemed to be a rune magic that was specially developed by a weird sect called the Battle Mage. Because it did not involve complicated magic circles, he could barely understand a part of the paper. Just this part alone was enough to make him feel that he had benefited a lot.
When he had finished reading the paper, he could not help but exclaim, "Wow, there's actually such a wonderful way to use runes? Although the Battlemage's philosophy was not the same as ours, the thought process of these simplified runes is really interesting. I feel like I'm suddenly enlightened … "
In his heart, he had already decided to use his position to copy the paper down so that he could study it in detail. He believed that if he could fully comprehend the content of the paper, his strength would definitely increase.
Baiyi did not say anything. He waited patiently for Fatso to continue reading.
The next three papers were about alchemy, engineering, and astrology. Fat Finn's mind was in a state of stupor. He was not familiar with these three subjects, but he could sense the professionalism in the jargon used in the papers. This meant that Baiyi's knowledge in these three subjects was no less than that of a professional's.
"I didn't expect you to have such a deep understanding of these three subjects, Master Hope. Many of your views and insights are quite unique," Fatso said, pretending to be fat.
Baiyi smiled inwardly. He knew that Fatso did not understand the paper, but he did not say anything. Instead, he politely said, "Then, I'll have to trouble you to submit them on my behalf, President."
"Don't worry. I'll arrange it for you right away!" Fatso said confidently. Then, he leaned back on the chair with a relieved look on his face. He continued, "After reading these papers of yours, I believe that I'll get my 100 gold coins for sure."
Isn't this guy playing a little too much? But considering his identity as the president of a branch in a city, the 100 gold coins was really just a small gamble for fun.
Since the matter was settled, Baiyi was ready to leave. However, just as he was about to get up, he heard Fatty calling out to him from behind. "Erm … Master Hope, please forgive my curiosity. Could it be that you're … the Great Immovable Sage from back then?"
"The legendary Great Sage who was the most knowledgeable person in the history of the Door of Conundrum. He left his mark in the academic world and also carved his name in history. But, it's said that after he entered the Door of Conundrum, he never left the place. Very few people have seen his face. His papers were only circulated after they were stamped with his Great Sage's Seal. Almost no one knows his real name. Sir Hope, that's not you, right? I feel that only a person like that is worthy of your profound knowledge. "The fatty continued to ramble on.
Baiyi shook his head and denied it before replying, "There are many people like me in the Door of Conundrum. It's just that everyone is too engrossed in the sea of knowledge that they have no time to care about other things. Those things in the secular world are far less interesting than the world in books.
