Chapter 165: Blue Quest Reward
Her not-so-high Second-level Wizard Apprentice rank, relatively rare dual talent attributes, Charm talent close to transcendent, and countless, almost perfect Witchcraft techniques. At this moment, looking at the young female apprentice standing beside the mercury vortex, possessing astonishing beauty and appearing harmless, everyone in the mercury space, except for the emotionless words of Hundred Bone Sage Gu Shan-Laifu, just quietly watched Jia Na, not saying a word...
"Whoosh——"
Tides surged, waves crashed.
Even though Jia Na was already used to being the center of attention, being stared at by several Formal Wizards simultaneously, this invisible aura of higher beings still made Jia Na feel pressure.
"Principal, I'm back."
Although she wasn't feeling relaxed inside, thanks to the help of the Muscle Control talent, Jia Na's demeanor remained relatively calm.
After steadily walking in front of Anthony-Black Sparrow, Jia Na lowered her head and respectfully bowed.
"Your performance this time was very good. Join the team first."
"Thank you, Principal."
Looking at the young female apprentice who was neither arrogant nor impatient, although Anthony-Black Sparrow didn't show it on his face, his relaxed eyebrows were enough to show his satisfaction.
Not only Anthony-Black Sparrow, but Grace-Eva and Mary-Margaret standing behind him also looked at Jia Na with complete surprise and satisfaction.
"It seems it's finally White Coral Academy's turn to win the championship this year."
Unlike White Coral Academy's triumph, Black Bone Forest, which should have had the home advantage, didn't achieve the expected good results.
Seeing this, Principal Losia-Haigo of Black Bone Forest, although still smiling, already had a hint of sourness in his words.
"It's just the wheel of fortune turning. To truly measure the strength of an academy, you still have to look at the total points."
Hearing Anthony-Black Sparrow's indifferent reply, Principal Losia-Haigo couldn't help but roll his eyes internally.
"Whoosh——"
The moment all the apprentices left the secret realm, the nameplates on each of them automatically flew into the water mirror Witchcraft in the vortex.
In just a few breaths, the water mirror Witchcraft, having captured all the apprentices' nameplate information, displayed everyone's points on the mirror surface according to their ranking.
【First Place, Jia Na-Luo Lan, 3316 points】
Looking at the prominent name listed as the champion on the water mirror Witchcraft, although she had already anticipated it, the moment the results were finally announced, the string that had been taut in Jia Na's heart finally relaxed. 【Today's Quest: Obtain first place in the "Three-School Joint Examination" (Completed);
Quest Reward: Talent Experience 500 points, Skill Experience 2000 points, Perception +0.4, Special Character Talent "Low-level Toxin Immunity".】
Silently Summoning the system in her heart, looking at the content description on the blue quest reward entry, a hint of joy couldn't help but flash across Jia Na's slightly tired face.
"This time, besides the increase in Perception attribute, I actually gained another special character talent——"
Perception is also a Wizard attribute defined in Mysticism.
The improvement of this attribute, in addition to increasing the Wizard's insight and sensitivity to all things,
will also enhance the Wizard's ability to capture everything in the world, and even Law energy.
Especially for apprentices like Jia Na who have the Summoning talent on the Mysticism Side, the increase in Perception allows her to better discern the soul hertz frequency of creatures from other worlds in the echoes of those worlds. And the second reward, "Low-level Toxin Immunity," is more like the physical talent gained by Bloodline Side apprentices after awakening their bloodline,
a physical talent they gain.
Although the range of toxins immune to is limited to "low-level toxins," the so-called "low-level toxins" are actually the most numerous type of toxins in the Wizard World.
Just like the mercury flower Mary-Margaret experimented with using guinea pigs during the Basic Herbalism class, it is a low-toxicity plant and one of the extremely rare poisonous plants within the Mist Forest.
"Jia Na, you really didn't disappoint me!"
Looking at the names of the top fifty apprentices displayed on the water mirror Witchcraft, Vivian, who was ranked forty-first, couldn't contain her excitement and grabbed Jia Na's arm.
"If I had known you would be more than three hundred points higher than the second place, I wouldn't have given you the Swamp Magic Frog tongue."
Ranked second in this assessment was the Black Bone Forest Lightning-type apprentice, Leiman, and his total points,
were a full 375 points lower than Jia Na's. Following closely was an apprentice from Mist Tower, only 35 points lower than Leiman, while Hugh-Stone was ranked fourth.
Not only that, the seventh and ninth places in the top ten were also White Coral apprentices... Just looking at the total points of the top ten, White Coral Academy still ranked first.
"So, you have to have confidence in me."
Looking at Jia Na's calm gaze, Vivian just shrugged and didn't dare to continue the topic.
"Among the top fifty, White Coral Academy accounts for roughly two-fifths—this proportion seems similar to previous years."
Hearing Vivian change the subject, Jia Na's gaze also returned to the water mirror Witchcraft.
Among those Jia Na was familiar with, Luo - Yinhu was ranked twelfth, Bell-Moonshadow thirty-second———and Maluo-Haige just made it into the fiftieth place.
"Principal Losia, since the assessment is over, shouldn't we be leaving now?"
Hearing this, looking at the unconcealable smugness on Anthony-Black Sparrow's face, Principal Losia-Haigo took a deep breath and said with a forced smile:
"Of course."
"Then the rewards for the top ten winners———"
"They will be delivered within three days."
As the host of this year's "Three-School Joint Examination," in addition to providing the assessment venue, the rewards for the top ten winners were also paid for by Black Bone Forest itself.
According to the usual practice, the rewards for the top ten in the "Three-School Joint Examination" are all top-tier elemental essences with random attributes.
And Jia Na, as the champion, will receive an additional prize "carefully" selected by Black Bone Forest, in addition to the elemental essence.
This prize could be an apprentice-level Witchcraft tool, or it could be a precious knowledge scroll.
There are many uncertain factors involved. Even if the quality of the prize is definitely not bad, whether it will be suitable for Jia Na completely depends on Black Bone Forest's own intentions. "I hope Principal Losia can pick something I can use, considering I helped Maluo..."
However, upon second thought, recalling the miserable state of Maluo-Haige being constantly "hunted" by Black Bone Forest Apprentices in the secret realm, Jia Na quickly dismissed this possibility.
