Versatile Mage: Soul and Demon Dual Cultivation.

Chapter 49 Three-Step Tower

Dean Xiao said, "I understand. If that's the case, you should go to the main campus next year. If you keep pretending to be a pig and trying to eat a tiger, aren't you afraid that you will really become a pig one day?"

Lin Chen's face was dark, and he said, "Isn't this bad?"

Dean Xiao smiled coldly and said, "I think it's great. Not only will you be admitted to the main campus, you will also have to participate in the college exchange competition next year. A magician who is about to reach the super level is actually pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger in the university. How dare you!"

"It's not as exaggerated as you say. I'm only at the second high level!" Lin Chen scratched his head awkwardly. He didn't like the feeling of being seen through. The power of the forbidden spell was so terrifying!
Dean Xiao snorted coldly and said, "Haha, you are finally willing to tell the truth? Don't worry, everyone has their own opportunities. I won't ask too much about your secrets. If you need any help, you can come to me directly!"

Lin Chen thought about it and said seriously: "Since the dean has said so, it would be a bit ungrateful for me to refuse!"

Dean Xiao showed no emotion on the surface, but he was actually very happy in his heart. Mingzhu Academy had secured a place in next year's inter-school exchange competition.

"You should be familiar with the Three-Step Pagoda, right?" asked Dean Xiao.

Lin Chen nodded and said with a smile: "The principal wants to give me a place in the Three-Step Pagoda?"

Dean Xiao said: "The Three-Step Pagoda is not very helpful for high-level players. Your situation is very special, and the academy can't do anything to help you. So I'll give you three chances to go through the Three-Step Pagoda, each lasting seven days, as a reward for your contribution to Bo City!"

Lin Chen said with a smile: "Thank you, Dean Xiao. Don't worry, I promise to bring you first place in next year's exchange competition!"

Dean Xiao smiled with satisfaction. He didn't have much contact with Lin Chen and thought he was an introverted child. Unexpectedly, Lin Chen was easy to get along with and most importantly, he was clear-headed and could understand some things at a glance.

Dean Xiao patted Lin Chen's shoulder with satisfaction, gave him a few instructions, then said goodbye to Lin Chen and turned away!
Lin Chen looked at Dean Xiao's receding back, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he murmured to himself: "Interesting old man!"

Combining kindness with severity, beating someone with a stick to make him eat the date, how could Lin Chen not understand these simple methods?

But he still cooperated with Dean Xiao. There was no other way. When you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head, not to mention that the other party had no ill intentions.

As for the Three-Step Pagoda, Lin Chen also understood what Dean Xiao meant. This was equivalent to mutual benefit. In the future, when Lin Chen achieved results, the school could also proudly say, "Lin Chen was trained by our Mingzhu Academy!"

But if the hospital did not provide Lin Chen with resources, would it still have the nerve to say that? Even if it really said that, it would lack confidence.

There is no free lunch in the world. Responsibilities and rights are equal. Lin Chen has the right to enjoy Mingzhu’s resources, which also means he has the responsibility to win honor for Mingzhu Academy.

Therefore, this deal was reached between Lin Chen and Dean Xiao invisibly. It is good for you, it is good for me, and it is good for everyone. This is the true good.

Since there were free resources available, Lin Chen walked towards the Three-Step Tower, thinking it might as well be used.

The Three-Step Tower is one of the important resources of the main campus of Pearl University, and its place is the dream of many people.

It is also because of the existence of the Three-Step Pagoda that Mingzhu Academy is loved by many mages.

The function of the Three-Step Pagoda is to gather the elements between heaven and earth into the Three-Step Pagoda and compress them into a specific space.

Once a magician enters the Three-Step Tower, he can easily sense the omnipresent elemental power. Practicing in an environment with high element concentration can speed up his own practice and make it easier to break through the current bottleneck.

But for Lin Chen, the place to practice in the Three-Step Tower has become dispensable, and Lin Chen doesn't care much about it.

With Qiu'er's help, Lin Chen was practicing in a small three-step tower all the time.

In the Three-Step Pagoda, the concentration of magic elements on each floor is different. The higher the floor, the higher the concentration of elements. However, if you want to practice on a higher floor, you need strong mental strength and magic power. The Three-Step Pagoda is like a gravity space. Every time you go up a step, your mental strength and magic power will be consumed.

Once they can't bear it anymore, they will faint in the Three-Step Tower, wasting the opportunity to practice in the Three-Step Tower.

Therefore, everyone who enters the Three-Step Tower will do what they can to avoid losing more than they gain.

After a while, the three-step tower came into Lin Chen's sight.

The exterior of the Three-Step Pagoda is in the shape of an isolated triangle with three sides that are completely symmetrical, like a three-step pagoda made of metal, which forms a sharp contrast with the ordinary teaching building.

There were two guards stationed in front of the gate of the Three-Step Pagoda. Lin Chen handed over his student ID, and after a moment the other party confirmed Lin Chen's information.

After the guard opened the door, Lin Chen walked in slowly.

The Three-Step Pagoda has its own space, which is very vast. As soon as you enter the Three-Step Pagoda, you will see a metallic passage in front of you. After walking for a long time, a staircase appears.

Lin Chen walked up the stairs step by step. There was a huge platform on each level for mages to practice.

Every step he took consumed the magic energy and mental strength in Lin Chen's body.

For a mid-level magician, each level is a huge obstacle, but for Lin Chen, it is a piece of cake.

Lin Chen, who practiced both soul and demon, had already reached a terrifying level of physical strength. It was difficult for ordinary commander-level demons to compare with him.

After nearly four years of practice, his mental power level has reached level eight.

On the stairs leading to the fourth floor, he felt a slight pressure, but it was far from Lin Chen's limit.

After consuming the magic energy of four high-level magic systems, Lin Chen finally reached the fifth floor.

The fifth floor of the Three-Step Tower is the top floor. At this time, the platform on the top floor was empty, and rich elemental power was everywhere. Lin Chen quickly came to the center of the flat floor. He was not in a hurry to practice, but released Qian Renxue and Hu Liena.

The two girls appeared and looked at each other in bewilderment, but soon they discovered the uniqueness of this place. The 320-fold amplification coupled with the magic weapon for practicing soul skills made the speed of practice extremely terrifying.

The three of them did not waste any time and immediately sat cross-legged, taking out energy crystals and began to practice.

Three months ago, Lin Chen's summoning magic had reached the high-level second level. At that time, he summoned the emerald swan of the Star Dou Great Forest - Brigitte. The appearance of Brigitte also helped Lin Chen awaken the healing magic.

The number of Lin Chen's magic systems has reached a terrifying eleven.

Today, three months later, he is already a high-level second-level mage in all disciplines.

The rich elemental power entered the bodies of the three people frantically. Combined with the elemental energy of the energy crystals, the magical skills of the three people continued to grow at an extremely fast speed.

But after only half a day, the cultivation speed of the three people suddenly decreased. However, they were not disappointed and continued to practice hard.
