Chapter 390 : Special Training Results
In the following days, Janna spent all her time under Lilith-Mage’s high-intensity training. Although the process was extremely exhausting,her mastery over [Partial Transfiguration] and [Beginner Transfiguration] grew increasingly refined.
“Very good, your control over magic power has already far exceeded my imagination.”
Looking at Janna, who had just reverted back to human form from the [Grotesque-Faced Tree Demon] transformation, a satisfied smile unconsciously appeared on Lilith-Mage’s face.
“Judging by your current level of precision in controlling magic power, your [Beginner Transfiguration] should now be able to last ten minutes.”
Ten minutes—
Upon hearing Lilith-Mage’s words, Janna’s pale face, which had been drained due to excessive magic consumption, regained some color.
The [Transfiguration Witchcraft] Janna currently mastered could broadly be divided into [Partial Transfiguration] and [Beginner Transfiguration]. Among them, [Beginner Transfiguration] could be further categorized into transformations into ordinary, non-magical creatures, as well as extraordinary, magical creatures.
Normally, when a Third Tier Wizard Apprentice transformed into a magical creature of a different attribute, the transformation duration would not exceed five minutes.
However, Janna, who possessed the [Precise Control] talent, had a level of control over her magic power far surpassing the average. Therefore, the time she could sustain her [Beginner Transfiguration]—transforming into a magical creature of a different attribute—could reach ten minutes. That was twice the duration of a normal Third Tier Wizard Apprentice!
For this reason, Lilith-Mage, a master in the field of transfiguration, could not help but repeatedly express her amazement.
In addition to Janna’s extraordinary comprehension, her astonishing ability to control magic power was something Lilith-Mage had never anticipated.
“Professor, thank you for your guidance these past few days.”
Saying this, Janna bowed deeply toward Lilith-Mage.
“You’re welcome. As long as you can achieve a good result in tomorrow’s Trial, then my hard work these past few days will not have been in vain.”
In addition to teaching Janna magic control techniques for [Beginner Transfiguration], Lilith-Mage had also systematically instructed her in the theory of [Elemental Interactions], as well as combat techniques after transforming into different elemental creatures.
Especially in the combat portion—Lilith-Mage not only arranged for Janna to spar against elemental creatures from different planes, but also personally stepped into the arena as a sparring partner, guiding her in transfiguration combat techniques one-on-one.
It was precisely under such intense training that Janna had progressed at such a remarkable pace.
“Alright, we should head back now.”
As she finished speaking, Lilith-Mage’s finger lightly traced the air, and a Spatial Rift over two meters long appeared before the two of them.
“You go in first.”
“Yes, Professor.”
The place where Lilith-Mage had taken Janna for special training today was a plane very similar to the [Thorny Plane]—the [Swamp Plane].
Within it lay not only vast jungles, but also all sorts of venomous insect-type magical creatures and plant-type elemental beings, which were the main inhabitants of this plane.
“Ding—”
The moment Janna passed through the Spatial Rift and returned to her room, the familiar System Notification for task completion rang in her ears.
【Today’s Mission: Complete one combat training session and achieve victory (Completed);
Mission Reward: 200 Talent EXP, 800 Skill EXP, Character Talent “Voice of the Heavens” enhanced.】
“Hm?”
Looking at the reward description on the Quest Panel, a trace of doubt flashed in Janna’s eyes. But soon, her expression returned to normal as she closed the panel.
“This is the latest participant roster. Take it back and compare with the previous version; there aren’t many major changes.”
“Understood, Professor.”
After receiving the latest Trial participant roster handed to her by Lilith-Mage, Janna also took out a centaur-shaped scented candle.
“Professor, this was delivered to me last night by the [Beast Faction]. It’s a lavender-scented candle, which I know you like, so I brought it as a gift for you.”
“A scented candle from the [Beast Faction]? That is indeed quite good. Is this also one of your endorsed products?”
“Yes.”
With the exposure of the Trial participant roster, news that the popular opera actress Janna Roland would represent Turin’s Wizard Gathering Place—White Coral Academy—in the [Andrew-Gamp Transfiguration Trial] quickly made front-page headlines in several newspapers.
This in turn added even more heat to the already highly-anticipated “Professionals’ Trial.”
Thus, during the few days Janna spent training with Lilith-Mage, not only had the [Spirit Communication Group] sent new products, but also [Kirlia Workshop] and the [Beast Faction] had swiftly acted. Beyond sending their latest endorsed products to their representative, they had also plunged into a fierce bidding war over the naming rights of the [Glory Arena].
In addition, reporters’ interview requests, performance invitations from the Elemental Soul Opera House, and even an invitation from the Elemental Soul Wizard Academy all poured in—though all of them were firmly rejected by Lilith-Mage.
Especially regarding the invitation from the Elemental Soul Wizard Academy, Lilith-Mage scoffed in disdain, denouncing such last-minute poaching as shameless behavior.
“Well then, I’ll accept this candle. Get a good rest tonight—tomorrow at eight in the morning, Billy will escort us there.”
“Professor Mage, regarding tomorrow’s Trial, I should mention—you may not need to trouble Mr. Billy. The [Spirit Communication Group] brand will be sending a special car to pick us up.”
At these words, Lilith-Mage merely raised her eyebrows, but nodded without objection.
“Very well, I’ll notify Billy.”
“Thank you, Professor. Good night.”
“Good night.”
After bidding farewell to Lilith-Mage, Janna gently closed the door and returned to her own room.
“Fortunately, it’s not too late yet.”
Back in her room, seeing that the clock displayed 7:30 p.m., Janna, who was already used to returning late at night, felt that it was still rather early.
So, after removing her Wizard Robe, she did not rush to wash up. Instead, she sat down at the dining table, poured herself a glass of milk, and opened the “Trial Participants” roster Lilith-Mage had given her.
“As expected of a document meant to stir up headlines. Its content is indeed quite rich.”
Looking at the additions compared to the previous version, Janna began to read carefully while sipping her milk.
Two days earlier, Janna had already received the first edition of the “Trial Participants” roster from the Mercenary Guild.
At that time, the roster had included little beyond the participants’ names and academy affiliations.
But today’s updated version not only provided more detailed information on each contestant, it also included ranking predictions for some popular participants—along with specific betting odds.
