"Your Magic Shield has absorbed spatial energy from the Multiverse and grown."
"Magic Shield's energy has reached its growth limit; you have mastered Magic Shield."
Zhao Yu, who had been sitting cross-legged, opened his eyes.
He rotated both hands, and a golden-yellow Magic Shield appeared before him.
Zhao Yu's face was full of excitement.
The system is awesome!
Magic is awesome!
Two days ago, he transmigrated—and landed in this dangerous Marvel world.
The only good news was that he became an apprentice at Kamar-Taj.
Kamar-Taj, the sacred place of Magic, is the dojo of the Supreme Sorcerer Ancient One, shrouded in mystery.
Although it is located in Kathmandu, Nepal, those not recognized never find it.
Zhao Yu was very lucky.
Upon arrival, he immediately became a Magic apprentice of Kamar-Taj.
Every day, under the guidance of many Sorcerers, he studied basic Magic.
Their instructor was the senior Sorcerer Khamir Dal.
Although Kamar-Taj's Sorcerers have no formal power ranking, they are roughly divided by mental strength into Apprentice Sorcerers, Senior Sorcerers, and Grand Sorcerer.
The Supreme Sorcerer stands above these ranks.
At Kamar-Taj, there are only a handful of Supreme Sorcerers—Wang, Mordo, and a few others.
There are over a thousand Magic apprentices at Kamar-Taj.
Zhao Yu's luck was poor; he could not study under a Supreme Sorcerer.
He was assigned to the senior Sorcerer Khamir Dal.
On the first day, they only learned the basics:
using mental strength to draw energy from the Multiverse and create Magic Shield.
Even that was fraught with difficulty.
As a materialist, Zhao Yu found it hard to accept such things, so his progress was painfully slow!
Fortunately, he awakened the system—his Magic could train itself!
After only three days, while other apprentices could barely spark yellow embers in midair, Zhao Yu had already mastered Magic Shield!
Shing!
The sound of weaponry materializing rang out.
Another golden-yellow shield appeared before Zhao Yu, radiating energy so intense it cracked the marble floor.
"It looks like it's time to learn a new spell from Sorcerer Khamir Dal."
Having mastered the use of Magic Shield, Zhao Yu was ecstatic.
He, Zhao Yu, had become a Sorcerer too!
In this dangerous world, he finally had a means of self-defense.
Crack!
The sound of a clay pot shattering echoed.
Zhao Yu turned around
and saw his senior brother Xiang Nan standing there, dumbfounded.
Xiang Nan had entered Kamar-Taj three months earlier;
they came from the same province and were close friends.
Kamar-Taj is vast; because Magic training is private, each person has their own room.
Xiang Nan lived next door.
He loved studying ancient teas—those dark brews of oil, salt, and spices boiled together.
He was passionate and loved to share.
Zhao Yu had treasured his teapot above all else, honoring it as if it were an ancestral heirloom.
Now the teapot lay in shards, spices scattered everywhere, yet Xiang Nan didn't notice; he just stared at Zhao Yu in shock.
Zhao Yu deactivated his Magic and asked, "Senior, why are you here?"
Only then did Xiang Nan snap out of it.
"I came to invite you to taste my new tea!
But that's not the point!"
He rushed forward, excitedly reaching for Zhao Yu's hands.
Zhao Yu shuddered—something was off with his senior!
With a flash, he dodged Xiang Nan.
"Senior, let's talk—no grabbing!" Zhao Yu warned.
Xiang Nan suppressed his excitement and shock.
"Junior brother! You've learned Magic Shield!!!"
His booming voice shook the nearby window.
"Yeah, senior, what's so surprising?"
Zhao Yu replied.
Doctor Strange learned teleportation in minutes—what was he?
Even with the system's help, it took him three full days
to learn the most basic Magic Shield. Not something to boast about!
"What!" Xiang Nan's voice shot up eight notes.
"Nothing to be surprised about?
Do you know what learning Magic Shield in three days means?!"
Xiang Nan was more excited than if he'd been dumped by his girlfriend.
"Senior, calm down—explain."
Zhao Yu feared Xiang Nan might die of excitement and tried to soothe him.
"Calm down? Do you know—even Master Casillas, recognized as the most gifted, took half a month—an entire half-month—to learn Magic Shield!"
Xiang Nan exclaimed, trembling with excitement.
"Do you know what this means?!
Junior brother, you are an unparalleled genius!"
He grabbed Zhao Yu, overjoyed and astonished.
He never expected
that a newly arrived fellow townsman would be a prodigy!
Xiang Nan was truly happy.
He was a traditional man who valued hometown bonds, and he rejoiced to see his fellow townsman shine.
"Junior brother! I'm telling you—you must report to Master Khamir Dal immediately
to receive better instruction!
You might even be granted an audience with a Supreme Sorcerer!"
Xiang Nan was ecstatic.
Zhao Yu nodded.
The Supreme Sorcerers were powerful yet approachable.
Even lower-rank Sorcerers revered them and could call them by name.
If you were talented enough, you might receive their personal guidance.
But he wasn't in a hurry.
"Senior, don't rush.
Your teapot and spices are still scattered on the floor."
Zhao Yu kindly reminded him.
Only then did Xiang Nan remember his precious teapot and rare ingredients.
"Ah! My teapot!
The ingredients I had someone gather!"
Xiang Nan let out a wail, heartbroken to tears.
Zhao Yu offered sincere sympathy.
He helped Xiang Nan tidy up and comforted him.
Finally, they sat in the room together.
"Junior brother, you must tell Master Khamir Dal as soon as possible,"
Xiang Nan urged.
"A genius is taught differently at Kamar-Taj.
You'll receive superior instruction."
Magic training under a Supreme Sorcerer requires no resources—only talent and effort—but a great teacher matters immensely.
The Supreme Sorcerer's guidance differs from an ordinary Sorcerer's, and under their patronage, Kamar-Taj never suppresses junior talent.
A genius must rise quickly
to gain better resources.
Zhao Yu knew Xiang Nan meant well.
He nodded and said, "Don't worry, Senior. I'll go find Master Khamir Dal shortly."
Thinking of Kamar-Taj's mysterious spells, Zhao Yu was filled with anticipation.
