Hearing Gu Feng's words, Yun Sheng immediately remembered the tower she had seen in the Magic Academy's central square on her first day of school.

That was the Central Magic Tower.

Seeing Yun Sheng's interest in the Magic Tower, Gu Feng spoke animatedly.

He kept on talking even as they walked back to the dormitory.

Through Gu Feng's explanation Yun Sheng realized that the Central Magic Tower was not built for the Royal Magic Academy especially.

The Central Magic Tower was, to be exact, an Ancient Magic Relic.

The Wu Ji Continent was full of great nations, and most of its land had been divided.

But there were still places that even the countless armies could not conquer, and those places were called, Ancient Relics.

There were many kinds of Ancient Relics, sometimes it was a vast plain, sometimes it was a dense forest, but it could also be an ancient building.

Most of the Ancient Relics had restrictions on the outside that were difficult for ordinary people to cross, and only the strongest warriors, magicians and summoners could break these restrictions and enter the Ancient Relics.

But as long as they entered the Ancient Relics and were able to come out successfully, they would acquire extraordinary rewards.

They might obtain powerful techniques left behind by ancient cultivators, or they might comprehend long-lost ancient magic, or even gain the favor of ancient beasts, so, although Ancient Relics were extremely dangerous, there were still countless adventurers who went forth to risk their lives.

However, Ancient Relics were not easy to discover, and the few maps of Ancient Relics were in the hands of some big countries, families and mysterious organizations. It was very difficult for ordinary people to even catch a glimpse of them.

But the students of the Royal Magic Academy did not need to enter an Ancient Relic to enjoy their benefits.

The reason laid in the Central Magic Tower, according to a legend, the founder of the Royal Magic Academy, and the only magician in the Great Zhou Empire to ever reach the grade of Magic King, King Lan, had brought the Central Magic Tower back after he entered an Ancient Relic.

For all the years after the founding of the Great Zhou Empire, there has only been this godlike Magic King.

Bringing back a tower?

How could that be? Even with a storage ring like the Beast Language Ring, it was an impossible task.

As if he had guessed that Yun Sheng wouldn't believe him, Gu Feng continued on.

Every Magic King on the Wu Ji Continent would comprehend a special type of Supreme Magic. The Supreme Magic comprehended by King Lan Yin was a space-time attribute magic that could distort space. It was this Supreme Magic that King Lan used to bring back the Central Magic Tower at that time.

After King Lan returned, he gave this relic to the Royal Magic Academy. After several generations, the Central Magic Tower became the emblem of the Royal Magic Academy.

It was that amazing?

In the elementary magic class, Yun Sheng had been exposed to a more comprehensive system of magic, now she knew that there were more than the initial three stages of magic.

Above Advanced Magic, there was also Sacred Magic, Supreme Magic and Divine Magic, it was said that Divine Magic could even turn back time!

But all of this was still inconceivable for Yun Sheng and Gu Feng, who were still just Magicians who hadn't even mastered beginner magic yet!

"Unfortunately...I never had the chance... to enter the Central Magic Tower... and I don't even know what the Magic Tower's interior... looks like... all of this I... only heard from others," Gu Feng scratched his head and stammered.

For most scholarship students, entering the Central Magic Tower for cultivation was an extravagant expectation.

To enter the Central Magic Tower, one needed a Magic Card.

Magic Cards had to be earned by relying on performance in class as well as the results of official fights in exchange for the corresponding Magic Cards.

In the Royal Magic Academy, there were three types of Magic Cards, one was Primary Magic Card with an amount of five points, the second was an Intermediate Magic Card with an amount of twenty points, and the last one, held by instructors, that could also be earned by the students who excelled in the final assessment, the Premium Magic Card with an amount of fifty points.

But there was also another type, the Supreme Magic Card that could only be obtained after making special contributions to the academy, there was no limit to the times it could be used and the amount of time that could be used.

Magic Cards were not uncommon among intermediate students, but for beginner students, especially for the scholarship students among them, because of their humble background, they were extremely rare. So, even if they were to have talent, due to the lack of resources, they would fall behind these noble sons and daughters who attended the academy. Not to mention defeating these proud noble sons and daughters.

Gu Feng himself, because of his poor performance in fights, had been unable to obtain a Magic Card.

As for Qi Gubian, he would have the strength, but the school had already decided this matter, because he had killed his opponent in that "accident", the administration office forcible deprived him of the opportunity to enter the Magic Tower in his first year.

Therefore, before Yun Sheng joined, the 13th Potion Team had no chance to enter the Magic Tower.

"Perhaps, you will soon have the chance, have you forgotten that I have a Magic Card?" Yun Sheng took out the Magic Card she had won from Song JIe.

After attaining victory, Yun Sheng had become the owner of this Magic Card, as agreed before the fight.

What Yun Sheng had obtained from Song Jie was a Primary Magic Card, it was acquired by Song Jie in exchange for his performance over the past two months, there should be five unused points left.

With the Magic Card Yun Sheng would be able to cultivate in the Magic Tower, multiplying her cultivation speed.

Gu Feng was delighted, never would he have thought that someone from their 13th Magic Potion Team would have the opportunity to enter the Central Magic Tower.

"It's us, don't forget, you also contributed to this card," Yun Sheng still remembered how Gu Feng blocked an arrow for her, although this chubby boy was timid and cowardly, at that moment he was still quite manly.

"No... Magic Cards... can only be used by one person... Besides, that day was mainly thanks to you ... I'm happy as long as I don't drag you down," Gu Feng was embarrassed.

He understood that Yun Sheng's talent was much higher than his, and a Primary Magic Card could only be used for five hours.

Gu Feng would rather Yun Sheng make the most out of these five hours than waste such a precious Magic Card on himself.

This kid, Gu Feng, was still too prejudiced, his talent for light magic had just been not been unleashed yet.

Yun Sheng didn't hesitate, she promised in her heart that next time, if she had the chance, she would definitely win a Magic Card for Gu Feng!

Aware of the benefits that the Central Magic Tower might bring to her cultivation, Yun Sheng was eager to try it.

On Sunday, she used Earth Spike to cultivate the Scholarship Students' Herb Field in the morning, and in the afternoon, she could not wait to bring the Magic Card to the Central Magic Tower.
