I, a cultivator, have ended up in the wizarding world.

Chapter 100 Preparations for Promotion (Fourth update, please subscribe!)

Although the contribution statistics are too simplistic and crude, at least a list has been released.

As for why the rankings are updated so in such a long interval...

The reason is also very simple.

After all, every time the rankings are updated, a level seven fate wizard has to be sent to "die".

In the entire Norren Workshop, there are only about a dozen Fate-type wizards of this level, which simply cannot support too frequent changes in the rankings.

The impact of this list is also enormous.

All the apprentices checked the list immediately.

Less than ten days had passed since the earliest launch, and many apprentices hadn't even had a chance to open their shops yet.

Jemin's battle record was instantly updated on the workshop's total contribution ranking almost the instant the wizard's phantom disappeared.

The name "Jemin" from "Noren Academy 13" went from being unknown to the apprentices to being like a rocket, instantly surpassing tens of thousands of apprentices and rushing to the top of the list at an alarming speed.

In a short period of time, it has even entered the top ten.

The change in the rankings was like a hurricane, instantly sweeping across all wizard apprentices in the entire Elosia plane.

Augusta, who was resting in the ruins of an orc tribe that had been razed to the ground, glanced at Jemin's name with a gaze as sharp as a knife.

When she saw the ranking soar like a rocket, her already fierce fighting spirit ignited like two thunderbolts in her eyes.

She gripped her staff tightly, inwardly growling, "Jermin... you did something again! Very well! This is more interesting!"

That competitive desire to prove oneself has now reached its peak.

David Stoneheart, who had just wiped out an entire elven tribe, saw Jemin's name instantly surpass his own from below the leaderboard, and a ferocious smile appeared on his rugged face:

"Ha! This Jemin? Interesting! This is more like it! This is how a wizard's battlefield should be, with strong warriors constantly emerging and clashing with each other! I'd like to see just how high you can jump!"

He swung his giant axe violently, splitting a towering tree beside him in two, seemingly venting his excitement.

Serafina Nightshade whispered almost inaudibly in the shadows, her emotions barely discernible: "Interesting..."

Her gaze, hidden beneath her hood, seemed to pierce through a vast distance, silently calculating something.

Karen Vanya pushed up her gold-rimmed glasses, her eyes gleaming with a thirst for knowledge.

Looking at Jemin's astonishing rise on the leaderboard, he muttered to himself thoughtfully, "To achieve such a high contribution level in such a short time, it seems I was too conservative before. Hmm... I need to work harder, perhaps I can try building a new elemental array to improve efficiency."

Inside Rex Magnus's alchemical power armor, a flurry of electronic calculations emanated. His calm, electronic voice came through the visor: "Analysis complete: Target 'Jemin's' contribution acquisition efficiency is preliminarily determined to be: anomaly. Further observation and in-depth modeling of its behavior patterns are required."

Noren Workshop Headquarters, Inside the Monitoring Hall.

Several high-ranking wizards were staring at the constantly changing leaderboard data on the main screen.

"Oh? This kid from House 13 is rising in the rankings pretty quickly." A wizard wearing a monocle stroked his beard, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. Another wizard put down the documents in his hand and praised, "Jermin... that name sounds familiar. Looks like he's very efficient; he's made a valuable contribution so quickly. Much better than those useless guys still blindly wandering around."

In the exclusive mentor area of ​​Norren 13 Academy, Mentor Clark sat with several other mentors.

When he saw Jemin's rapidly rising ranking, he finally couldn't help but let a genuine smile appear on his stiff expression.

This kid certainly didn't disappoint him!

……

……

After traversing the vast primeval forest and the desolate plateau they had just arrived in, Jieming and his companions changed direction and began to travel along the mountain range beside the wasteland.

Their goal was clear—to go to the more intense "front line" in the shaman's memory.

That area is not only a necessary route for the main force of wizards to reunite, but it also means that there are richer resources and more high-level magical beasts and natives.

Therefore, Jemin and his team began preparations on the way.

As alchemy apprentices, the three of them not only used reconnaissance magic but also unleashed their full alchemy skills to search for the materials they needed.

"By the way, I've never seen these materials before. Are you sure they can really be used to make potions?"

Victor watched as Jemin picked up what appeared to be an ordinary monster carcass from the ground and couldn't help but ask, "And not only have we never seen the materials before, we probably didn't bring any suitable alchemy equipment with us this time, did we?"

"Do not worry."

Amy, who also studied potions, suddenly appeared from the side, holding something that looked like monster excrement:

“Although we have never seen these materials before, Jemin and I have already constructed a magical model of extraction, so it is quite simple to make potions.”

"Simple?" Victor was even more puzzled. "Isn't Potions difficult?"

He remembered very clearly that when he was in the academy, there were too many students in the logistics department who also studied potions and lived in poverty.

It is no exaggeration to say that the difficulty of brewing potions is well-known to every apprentice in the academy.

Jemin reached out and cast an extraction spell on the pile of monster remains, carefully separating out a kind of transparent viscous liquid. He then explained to Victor:
"It is indeed quite troublesome for apprentices who are not familiar with it, but for those who are familiar with it, the difficulty lies in discovering new potion formulas. Once the formula is confirmed and the extraction technique is established, then brewing potions becomes quite simple."

Jemin had studied wizarding alchemy, runes, and potions in depth, and integrated them with his scientific knowledge from his previous life.

He believed that if alchemy was physics and runes were mathematics, then potions were chemistry.

Especially after he successfully constructed the magical model of "extraction", potion making became a "simple" act, similar to a combinatorial chemical formula.

As long as he collects the right materials and mixes them in the correct proportions, and meets the corresponding conditions, he can concoct any known potion.

Jemin lightly touched the transparent viscous liquid with his finger: "The extraction technique can precisely extract the elemental structure you need from any substance. From a microscopic perspective, the energy and matter in our world are all constructed from various elements in specific ways. Therefore, as long as you have a sufficient understanding of a thing or a kind of energy, you can directly extract the part you need from it."
