What are you all doing here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A member of the Elemental Tower’s Disciplinary Committee walked over and questioned the crowd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Someone noticed the red Disciplinary Committee insignia pinned to his arm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately, they shouted, \"He insulted a noble!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Disciplinary Committee student glanced at the person who spoke, then turned to Li Wei and said with a frown, \"Why did you insult him?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Wei said flatly, \"Is insulting someone against the law?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Disciplinary Committee student’s expression froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hadn’t expected Li Wei to be so disrespectful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at Li Wei and let out a chuckle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Heh, a newcomer who doesn’t know the rules?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then let me teach you how things are done.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a wave of his hand, his expression darkened. \"Take him away. I suspect you’re carrying prohibited items. Please come with me to the Disciplinary Committee for an investigation.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Surrender quietly, and you’ll suffer less.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, several people moved to grab Li Wei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, the onlookers revealed expressions of schadenfreude, ready to enjoy the show.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many of them were angered by Li Wei’s earlier remark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that he was about to be taken away by the Disciplinary Committee, smug smiles appeared on many faces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Carl quickly said, \"Wait, isn’t there some misunderstanding?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Disciplinary Committee member glanced at him and asked, \"And who are you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m Carl, also a new student.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The committee member’s expression was disdainful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I was just assigned to the Blue Level Class.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A smile appeared on the committee member’s face. \"Ah, so you’re a new underclassman!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t worry, it’s just a routine investigation. He won’t be harmed. He’ll be released as soon as the investigation is complete.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hearing Carl was assigned to the Blue Level Class, the committee member’s expression and attitude changed instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He began explaining in a gentle and reasonable tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he still had no intention of letting Li Wei go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was only explaining out of consideration for Carl’s status as a Blue Level Class student.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, he would have just taken him away without a word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No explanation needed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Letting Li Wei go was impossible. No matter who came, they couldn’t let him go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, where would the Disciplinary Committee’s prestige be?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If a new student dared to so arrogantly defy a Disciplinary Committee Law Enforcer, who would take the Committee seriously in the future?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Wei had to be punished!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To uphold discipline!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Take him away.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two Disciplinary Committee Law Enforcers walked up to Li Wei, preparing to seize him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>WHOOSH!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A gust of wind swept by.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A figure descended from the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An old, white-bearded man with messy hair landed in front of Li Wei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at Li Wei and asked, \"You’re Li Wei?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Torresta’s disciple?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Wei was a bit surprised. He nodded and said, \"Yes, I am Li Wei. And you are, senior?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The white-bearded old man smiled. \"I’m a good friend of your master. He asked me to be your mentor during your studies at the Elemental Tower.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My name is Zog Valen. You can just call me Master Valen.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Greetings, Master Valen.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Wei bowed in greeting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Valen stretched out his hand and patted Li Wei’s shoulder, which looked a bit comical.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Wei was much taller than him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Study well. Torresta told me you’re a good kid.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zog Valen swept his gaze over the surroundings. \"What are you all crowded around here for?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Disciplinary Committee student hurriedly said, \"Greetings, Grand Mage. We were just on patrol and happened to see a crowd gathered here, so we came to take a look.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t mention Li Wei at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, the others all showed looks of shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The few who were about to seize Li Wei were also stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Normally, new students only get the chance to choose a mentor after they’ve entered their class.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Li Wei was a different story—he hadn’t even gone to the Red Level Class yet, and a mentor had already come looking for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who could possibly receive such treatment?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only students of the Purple Level Class would enjoy the privilege of having mentors fight over them upon enrollment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even someone like Carl, who could enter the Blue Level Class, would only have more options when it was his turn to choose a mentor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Wei followed Zog Valen toward the Elemental Tower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Elemental Tower was built on a Floating Island, but the tower wasn’t the only thing on it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A large city had been built around the Elemental Tower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Living within the city were the relatives and servants of the Elemental Tower’s students and mentors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another portion consisted of the descendants of Elemental Tower Mages.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having neither left the Floating Island nor become Mages, they could only live in the city outside the Elemental Tower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The relatives and servants of Mages had descendants of their own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, there was a massive city on the Floating Island.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zog Valen brought Li Wei to his own manor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His manor was empty of people; its servants were a few Magic Puppets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two chatted as they walked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zog Valen asked, \"Which Magic Class were you assigned to?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Wei replied, \"The second year of the Red Level Class.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zog Valen stopped in his tracks, looking at him in utter surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How did you get assigned to the Red Level Class?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was extremely puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Torresta hadn’t revealed all of Li Wei’s details, he had praised Li Wei to no end and held him in extremely high regard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zog Valen naturally trusted his old friend Torresta’s judgment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was why he was so shocked to hear Li Wei had been assigned to the worst class, the Red Level Class.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Wei said, slightly embarrassed, \"My Magic Theory score was too low. I only got ten points. My total score was just sixty, sixth from the bottom, so I was assigned to the Red Level Class.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Only ten points in Magic Theory?\" Zog Valen shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, he froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait a minute, what did you say your total score was?\" Zog Valen asked, his eyes wide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sixty points,\" Li Wei replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zog Valen took a deep breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So, that means your practical combat score was a perfect one.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We see perfect scores in theory from time to time, but it’s been over a decade since anyone got a perfect score in practical combat.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Those people are extremely demanding when it comes to the practical exam. They’ll find any little flaw and dock points for it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Theory is just stuff from books; anyone who memorizes it well can answer the questions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Elemental Tower didn’t have very high expectations for newly enrolled students on that front.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Wei thought for a moment. He wasn’t sure if he had made any mistakes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Probably not.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If not attacking the enemy first was considered a flaw, then he really had nothing to say in his defense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The main reason was that the shock Li Wei had given the observing mentors was simply too great.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a result, everyone had forgotten to scrutinize his performance for flaws.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were more focused on how he had managed to instantly kill the Rock Armor Turtle with a single Fireball Skill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to the shock and pleasant surprise Li Wei had delivered, the issue of who attacked first was no longer important.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zog Valen said, \"It seems Torresta didn’t teach you much about Elemental Magic theory. After all, it’s not his specialty.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If it had been an exam on Spiritual Magic theory, your score would certainly have been much better. So don’t be discouraged.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Wei broke out in a cold sweat internally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’It would probably be even worse.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zog Valen continued, \"Don’t be in a rush. Now that you’re at the Elemental Tower, just focus on studying Magic Theory properly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"For a Mage, knowledge is Power. The higher your Level, the more you will understand the truth in that statement.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So, you must build a solid foundation.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We’re here. This is my manor. I usually live here alone, so you can stay here too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"After all, students in the Red Level Class aren’t assigned housing. If you left, you’d have to find a place to live on your own.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you, Master Valen,\" Li Wei said.\u003C\u002Fp>",1384,"2026-05-30T11:23:08.311Z","2026-06-01T04:31:06.567Z",1,"novelbin.me","1b939eb20edabb04c67defad2f0b52df00af89895a26344a50adad415b9dfaa2","grinding-exp-from-fireball-skill-chapter-182","grinding-exp-from-fireball-skill-chapter-181",312,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fgrinding-exp-from-fireball-skill-cover.jpg"]
