The five people who took part in the trial had different levels and abilities, and their performances looked very different as they walked on different floors. Some climbed with gritted teeth, while others walked calmly.
However, they are all moving very slowly, and it seems that they are about to reach their respective limits.
The one walking at the bottom was Tang Feng. He was on the ninth floor, not far from the tenth floor. Although his pace was slow, he walked steadily. He would stop and rest every two or three steps. It was not easy for him to walk here just a few days after becoming a mage. And judging by the way he was walking slowly forward, he was likely to reach the last floor for low-level mages, the tenth floor.
Master Kona felt Luo Ling's gaze and commented: "Although Tang Feng is at the end, if he is placed in the Spirit Refining Tower, he is worthy of being called a genius. You must not think that all of your people can break through the limits of the Spirit Refining Path, as if this is normal. Some of my people are obviously low-level mages who can't even reach the fifth floor. And another reason why he walks slowly is that he doesn't seem to be good at spiritual magic."
"You can even see this?"
"Of course, this is the wonder of the path of soul refining. I think he may be better at summoning magic."
Luo Ling knew that the comments of a great magician were priceless and could help people avoid many detours. Master Kona said this because of his loyalty to the Dream Tower and the abilities Xiao Chen had shown during this period.
"It seems a pity that I didn't take this path, otherwise I could ask Master Kona for comments."
"People like you or Xiao Chen don't need others to determine your path. That will only limit your development possibilities." Master Kona pointed to Li Tianrui, who was walking second to last. "But for them, the path they choose may affect their ultimate achievements."
Li Tianrui became a mage on the same day as Tang Feng, but he is now two levels higher than Tang Feng, having already stepped into the eleventh level, which represents an intermediate mage. He is now half-crouching on the ground, using his hands and feet to climb up little by little. But even so, he did not give up.
"This guy called Li Tianrui is actually not as talented as Tang Feng in all aspects. But his perseverance and endurance are amazing. Maybe he is very suitable for specializing in a few magics like Calenis."
Above him was Liu Pengfei, who was walking on the thirteenth floor. After all, he became a mage earlier and was stronger. However, he had been standing on the steps for a while without moving. Luo Ling estimated that if he ignored his image like Li Tianrui, he should be able to go up one more floor.
Master Kona commented: "This person has sharp senses and flexible thinking. His talent is one level higher than the previous two. He is a very promising mage. However, his problem is that he is too cautious. Although calmness and rationality are the qualities that mages need, the value of hard work can be reflected in the face of some training difficulties. His strengths may be in protection and barrier magic, and elemental magic will not be bad either."
"This woman... She has a body that doesn't belong to her. Her soul and body haven't really synchronized yet. When she can let her soul truly control her body, she will be able to reach the fifteenth floor. Her strength should be mental magic." Master Kona pointed at Xiao Mu who had stopped and said. The biggest secret of the book spirit soul was revealed by him.
The one walking first was actually Ye Zi, who was concentrating at the end. Even Luo Ling did not expect that she could walk here and step onto the sixteenth floor belonging to high-level mages.
"Ye Zi's magical talent is closest to yours, and she also has great potential. It's hard for me to judge which path is suitable for her. Moreover... she has a very powerful artifact protecting her, so it's not surprising that she can get here. I think if they really fight to the death, none of the following people should be her opponent."
The two watched for a while. Except for Tang Feng who went up one floor, no one else was able to move forward. Master Kona said, "Other magicians will be there soon to take them to do some magic tests. You should prepare to go down and meet them."

After Luo Ling said goodbye, Master Kona returned to his study on the 19th floor. He waited for a while, and someone knocked on the door.
When the door opened, it was Xiao Chen who came in.
"I have seen everything I should see, and I have done everything I should do." Master Kona said to Xiao Chen.
"Master Kona, thank you very much! However, I still want to hear from you personally about Luo Ling's mental problems. In our place, doctors often hide the condition of the disease from the patients and only tell their relatives." Xiao Chen said with a smile.
"Relatives? Okay. If there is anything I have concealed, it is that... I actually wanted to suggest that she give up advancement and maintain the status quo. But when I saw her expression, I knew that this was impossible." Master Kona repeated Luo Ling's situation.
Xiao Chen also asked a lot of detailed questions about those solutions.
"I just listed all the options out of a magician's habit of studying problems, no matter how low the probability is, but you know, this is no different from being impossible." Master Cona said, "If you want to take any practical action, you'd better think about it carefully."
"Perhaps the necklace of the Glacier Walker Celia and the sap of the elves' World Tree are more feasible solutions. They may be obtained through transactions." Xiao Chen said.
"Saint Celia is famous for her strange temper. Even our colleagues in the empire think that her temper is exactly the same as her ice and snow magic. When she doesn't want to pay attention to people, she will lock herself in the ice and snow castle and refuse to see guests. It is very difficult to just talk to her.
She once made the envoy of the emperor of the empire wait outside the door for two whole weeks. The envoy had to set up a tent and camp in the ice and snow for that long.
You also need something of equal value to exchange. She has been a saint for so many years. She is a worshiper of the empire and has a magic tower under her. She has everything she needs, so there are not many things she can be interested in. "Master Kona said.
"As for the elves, I can only warn you to be careful. The wars in the early years of the Black Dragon Empire and the slave trade later on made them have a very bad impression of humans. The more those nobles spy on them, the more hostile they are to humans. Anyone who inquires about these holy objects will probably be directly classified as an enemy by them." Master Kona said solemnly, "If you go to Saint Celia, at most you will be turned away, but if you involve the elves, you may die."
"How do you know if anything won't work if you don't try?" Xiao Chen touched his nose and said with a smile, "Now that I know why her spell backfires, I have to do something."
