In less than a month, the triennial "Pillow Sword Meeting" will be held in Saliuhi. Tiede, Putzli, Shafoyd in the city of Saliuhi, and Teshedali in Maine Province,

Higher education institutions such as Einz in the Fuz province will send students to participate in the competition. The number of entries for each higher education institution is determined by the results of the previous session. One hundred and twenty-eight contestants went through rounds of duels.

, compete to determine the final recipient of the Pillow Sword Medal. At that time, the Royal Guards, Royal Knights, Palace Mage Group, and even the Guangzheng Church will send people to identify contestants. Those who perform well at the meeting do not even need to graduate from the academy.

Work for the above-mentioned organizations.

Therefore, every aspiring student hopes to go to this "Pillow Sword Club". The lecturers of the college are qualified to recommend to the dean, such as "Eagle Falcon" and other core professors.

If recommended, the dean of Tide College will naturally give it priority.

However, Alvin has only entered the intermediate level at the Magic Academy. Logically speaking, he would not be recommended to participate at this stage. However, Professor "Falcon" is very fond of Alvin, so he has been giving Alvin evil every day recently.

Yes, whenever Alvin comes to the academy, he has to go to "Falcon" to make up lessons after class.

Taking advantage of the dark stone lamp in the Magic Court, Alvin walked through various classrooms on the first floor and walked straight to the tutor's office on the second floor. "Falcon"'s office was in the last room. Alvin didn't have time to knock on the door.

He heard the voice calling him in. A magician of the level of "Falcon" could notice it as soon as Alvin walked up the stairs. An old senior magician has a sensitive and vigilant perception of everything around him.

.

Alvin pushed the door open and walked in. He saw "Falcon" wearing a pair of gold-rimmed round glasses on his protruding aquiline nose. Matched with his natural curly hair, he had the posture of a justice reviewing the case files, and also like a bird.

The huge eagle stared at a classic book, ready to eat the book at any time. In fact, the "Eagle Falcon"'s eyesight was excellent, but it was starting to deteriorate as he got older. Alvin glanced at the bright candlelight in the room,

Sighing, he took out the "Laws of Space and Time" from his sheepskin satchel.

"Falcon" put down the book in his hand and looked up at Alvin.

"Today, let's review the basic rules of magic." Falcon took off the round eyes and rubbed the ridge between his eyebrows.

"Okay, Professor Fettime." Alvin sat down on a small desk next to the bookcase.

"What is magic, and what is the essence of magic?" Professor Fetimo looked at Alvin quietly.

"The essence of magic is to occupy and change the original matter in the world." Alvin answered skillfully. He thought that this is a principle that everyone who has studied magic courses knows. Is this a question?

Fetimo then asked: "Then can you explain what occupation and change are?"

Alvin thought for a moment and replied, "To put it simply, instant magic occupies a certain space around it. The greater the occupation, the greater the damage of the spell, and at the same time, the difficulty of casting the spell becomes greater. Therefore, general instant magic

Magical damage is limited because the various elements in the space are limited."

Fetimo nodded when he heard this and motioned for Alvin to continue.

"But such as magic, the essence is to form magic by changing the material in the space. Casting magic needs to be driven by chanting or magic scrolls, so it takes time to cast magic, but the magic damage is high. As the magician's magic power increases, you can

Shorten the casting time." Alvin replied fluently.

"What about martial arts? Can you tell me the difference between martial arts and magic?" Fei Timo

"Well...the difference between martial arts and magic is that it can cause damage at close range by shortening the distance with the opponent." Alvin didn't know much about martial arts and couldn't give an answer.

"It's too superficial. Think about it again, think about the martial arts part." Fetimo glared at Alvin.

In Alvin's impression, all martial arts students are doing kung fu to shorten the distance between themselves and their opponents. So what is the biggest difference between martial arts and magic?

"Let me remind you, do you still remember the agility skill that you blessed yourself with?"

Alvin must have remembered that battle, otherwise he wouldn't have to live such a miserable life of tutoring. Alvin thought about it carefully, and found that the method of using the agility technique is very simple, that is, using the body to sense and capture the surrounding space to benefit his body.

material, thereby changing the movement speed of the body in space. Thinking about it this way, the method of using martial arts is somewhat similar to magic, at least there are similarities in using the body to sense the surrounding space materials. So what is the difference?

"Professor, in terms of letting the body feel the elemental substances in the surrounding space, magic and martial arts actually have something in common." Alvin pondered.

"Indeed, what's the difference?" Fetimo asked, staring at Alvin, and the candlelight reflected in his pupils shone brightly.

Alvin thought about the feeling of using the Swiftness Technique again. In addition to the physical substances that are beneficial to body movement, there are also fewer constraints on movement in space.

"Oh, martial arts not only absorb the surrounding substances that are beneficial to the body, but also eliminate the obstructive substances in the space." Alvin finally reacted.

"Okay, okay, even though I'm a little dull, I still figured it out after all." Fetimo sighed.

Alvin is angry.

"So let's talk about a battle between a magician and a martial artist. What's important?" Fei Timo asked.

"Um... Try to reduce the absorption benefits of martial arts, and you can also increase the blocking substances in the space...?" Alvin's throat felt dry due to his stare.

"Then what is an obstructing substance? You can tell me about it," Professor Fetimo asked inquiringly.

"Um...gravity, and negative states such as slowness and paralysis?" Alvin raised his eyes and looked at the other person uncertainly.

"Then you, a mid-level magician who likes to use instant magic all day long, can do this? Do you know high-level magic like gravity field array? Your instant magic doesn't even have basic negative effects, right?" Fetimo

His tone was unkind, and he looked like he hated iron.

After being humiliated by "Falcon" like a barrage of bullets, Alvin lost his voice. No matter how shameless he usually was, he was speechless.

Fei Timo saw that Alvin was silent, and thought that he couldn't hit him too hard. After all, he was the student he chose. However, every time he smelled that girl's perfume from this boy, he would get angry.

Find a place.

"When you encounter a martial arts player who is stronger than yourself, don't think about changing the material elements of space to defeat him. I'm afraid your life will be gone before you can use magic." Fetimo said angrily.

I didn't go to the Pillow Sword Club voluntarily, Alvin cursed, but now I have to come to make up classes without any trouble, and I have to be ridiculed in all kinds of ways.

"So haven't I learned the splitting of the sky in the first chapter now?" Alvin pointed at the "Laws of Space and Time" and said with a smile.

The matter in the space is consumed through instant magic, thereby creating a materialless route in the space. Since there is no substance on the route, time flows statically, thus achieving an instantaneous displacement from one end of the route to the other without consuming time. This

It's the essence of the void.

"Hmph, if you still haven't made progress in material transformation, you will always be stuck in the first chapter." Fetimo glared at Alvin again.

Alvin didn't dare to say anything.

"I really don't understand that you young people, if you have time to spend your time drinking and drinking, it's better to spend more time on the study of magic. Life is fleeting, and there is no end to the sea. Do you understand?" Fetimo sighed heavily.

Alvin nodded in agreement with a look of shame on his face.

"Professor, what if you use martial arts to absorb light from the elemental materials in the space?" Alvin thought that not only magicians would use this method.

Use empty matter routes in space.

"Then what can you do? When you see a martial artist holding an ax appear on your face instantly, or an ax coming out of the air and appearing on your forehead, it is estimated that then you will remember what I said.

Fetimo said coldly.

Alvin couldn't help but shudder when he thought of that scene.

"Let you pay more attention to it. As a magician, you are not sensitive to the changes in the surrounding materials. Naturally, you will not be able to react even if your head is chopped off." Fetimo's tone was a bit sarcastic.

"But you can be more relaxed at this stage," Fei Timo explained, "As mentioned before, most martial arts are based on abandoning material obstacles in space, or absorbing material in space to speed up strength and body.

In terms of quantity, the absorption of elemental substances by martial arts is much less than that required by magicians. At least this is the case among the martial arts masters I have seen."

However, it has been less than a month since he arrived at the Pillow Sword Club. At his current stage, even if he trains hard every day, his magic power cannot catch up with the high-level magicians. In addition, his opponents also have high-level martial arts.

He couldn't help but have a headache.

"Don't worry too much. Just do your best and don't lose too badly. After all, I didn't give you much time to prepare. They have been preparing for three years." Feti said lightly.

"Anyway, I'm here to embarrass myself, so why don't you scold me all night?" Alvin said angrily.

"Then did I let you go to Fireworks Willow Alley?" Fetimo glared at Alvin again.

"Is there any quick fix?" Alvin asked indicatively, his opportunistic nature revealed.

"You can't become a person in a hurry. If you are idle and indolent all day long, how can you master the practice of magic quickly?" Feitimo's blood pressure was high, and from the bottom of his heart, he wanted to hang up the student in front of him and give him a beating.

"What about the Law of Space and Time? Is there any method in it?" Alvin didn't give up.

"Hmph, then you have to study it yourself." Fei Timo surprisingly did not refute his students, but he did not see the book "The Law of Space and Time" as a person who is still going to be a great magician.

It has to be deeper than Alvin understands.

This "Laws of Space and Time" is difficult, obscure, and awkward, and even a person with a clear mind like Alvin has not made any achievements in the second chapter.

In fact, what Fetimo didn't tell Alvin was that many magicians in the first chapter of this book may not be able to understand it thoroughly even after several years. For example, Alvin can understand the cracking sky in just a few months.

Skilled ones are really rare.

"The speed of time in space is not constant..." Alvin glanced at the "Laws of Space and Time" in his hand, raised his head and asked, "Professor, what do you think of this sentence?"

"Is this the essence of the second chapter you summarized?" Fetimo squinted at Alvin, and Alvin could see the candlelight dancing through the winding slit in his eyes.

Fei Timo thought for a while and couldn't help but frown. He looked at the playboy in front of him carefully and sighed deeply. Magic power is indeed obtained through accumulated practice over time, but the study of material time and space,

Some people just have unique qualifications. For example, he is one of the greatest magisters in the Yafei Empire. He has studied the "Laws of Space and Time" for a period of time, but he has not been able to figure out the reason.

However, this promiscuous student who hangs out in romantic places all day long has actually been able to comprehend the essence of the second chapter in just a few months. If the first chapter is just because of his outstanding talent, then he can study the second chapter.

The essence of magic is not only talent, but also a clear understanding of the basic theory of magic. More importantly, it is necessary to clarify the relationship between magic and time and space.

"Most magicians only have an infinite desire for magic power, and their understanding of higher levels of material time and space is too superficial." Fetimo has always remembered this sentence in his mind, when he was a student at Tide Magic Academy.

At that time, I heard something said by a certain talented classmate, and for some reason, I just remembered it for the rest of my life. However, what I am ashamed of is that even though he studied hard, he did not make any breakthrough in the understanding of time and space. The young man in front of him now

Let him always be comforted.

"You bastard, you usually look very lazy. I didn't expect it... I didn't expect it..." Fei Timo held up one cheek and sneered unabashedly, with a hint of displeasure in his laughter.

Known bitterness.
