"Brother Luca, even if you drink the awakening potion every year, there is a high probability that you will not become a magician by the age of fourteen. You still need to practice swordsmanship by then. The key is that our family does not have so many gold coins to buy two bottles of awakening potion every year."

"What, Miss, have you taken the awakening potion? One bottle a year until you are fourteen years old?" Lin Li said in surprise.

"Yes, my father said that I cannot inherit the title, so he hopes that I can become a magician. This way I can be considered an honorary noble, and only in this way can I control my own life."

I'm so envious. I originally thought that the Viscount's family couldn't afford the awakening potion and that's why they let Luca practice swordsmanship. I didn't expect that they were developing on two fronts. Their son will inherit the title no matter what, and they'll use a lot of money to let their daughter become a magician.

"I hope I can awaken and become a wizard in the future..." Eudora said this and stopped talking.

At this time, Val also came to pick up Lin Li, said goodbye to the brother and sister, and got on the carriage to go home.

On the way home, Val looked at Lin Li and asked, "How are you getting along with the young master and the young lady?"

"We just chatted after class. They didn't have the arrogant temper that I imagined the children of the nobility to have, nor were they arrogant. On the contrary, they seemed very easy-going and easy to get along with."

"Well, after all, they are Viscount Sco's children. I am still very relieved, and I also have great confidence in you." Val said this with great confidence.

"Dad, you trust the Viscount too."

"How can I follow him if I don't trust him? After all, I am a master warrior and I will be respected wherever I go."

It seems that this Viscount Kos is indeed a good man. At least he is a good father who can spend thousands of gold coins for his daughter to fight for her future. If the mage cannot be awakened, these thousands of gold coins will be wasted.

After returning home and having lunch, the painful afternoon began. I practiced swordsmanship over and over again until I had used up all my strength and lay on the ground, watching the crimson in the sky slowly dimming as the sun set. I thought that Luca should be lying on the ground half-dead like me at this time.

Lin Li studied culture in the morning and practiced swordsmanship in the afternoon. More than half a year had passed since he traveled through time.

Small snowflakes were falling gently, and the trees in the backyard had long lost their lush green color. The branches were now covered with pearl-like white snow.

Lin Li stood under the tree, swinging his sword again and again. Five months had passed since he started practicing. His body had become much stronger, and he could already perform the Lightning Sword Technique properly. Suddenly, Lin Li felt a heat in his heart, and something slowly began to gather towards the battle pattern on his heart.

Lin Li's eyes instantly filled with tears as he finally sensed the magic power. His originally tired body seemed to be filled with strength at this moment.

Val saw Lin Li's situation and said, "Don't stop, carefully sense the magic power." He thought that at this age, he became a warrior in just five months. He has good talent. Not worse than me. It can be seen that Val is in a very good mood now.

While Lin Li continued to practice his sword skills, he carefully sensed the magic power gathering in the battle pattern. The magic power circled in the battle pattern, and then penetrated into other parts of the body little by little, slowly strengthening various parts of the body.

After practicing a whole set of sword techniques, Lin Li stopped, looked at his father and said, "I finally sensed the magic power."

"Well, after so much training, the battle pattern on your body has finally been activated."

"So am I a junior fighter now?" Lin Li asked happily.

"Well, you have gotten started, but don't relax. You should know that only when you practice swordsmanship can you quickly absorb magic power to strengthen your body. The magic power absorbed by breathing alone is not enough to strengthen your body. You should carefully sense the magic power in the battle pattern, and control the battle pattern when you are not practicing so that the magic power does not flow into your body."

Lin Li carefully sensed that when he was not practicing swordsmanship, only a small amount of magic power was absorbed into the battle pattern by breathing. This magic power quickly flowed to various parts of the body, and he could feel that the places where the magic power was absorbed were strengthened a little bit. The magic power gathered by practicing swordsmanship just now disappeared in an instant. The body suddenly felt empty, and fatigue returned to the body all at once.

Lin Li picked up the sword and practiced the sword technique again, this time controlling the magic power in the battle pattern so that it would not flow into his body. The magic power he cultivated was as scarce as a drop of water in a large basin.

"You control the magic power you just cultivated to flow to your arms." Val said.

Lin Li did as Val said, and his arms were immediately filled with strength. He chopped forward with force, and he could clearly feel that his speed and strength had increased a lot.

"Why can I absorb magic power quickly when practicing swordsmanship?" Lin Li asked puzzledly. In the novels of his previous life, people could practice quickly by meditating.

"When you practice swordsmanship, your whole body is absorbing magic power. The corresponding breathing method can speed up the absorption of magic power. Normally, you only absorb magic power by breathing. Can the speed be the same?"

That makes so much sense. The novels in my previous life were all fucking lies. How could a person become stronger just by sitting there and doing nothing? Just sitting there would obviously only make you useless.

"How can I advance to an intermediate fighter?" Lin Li asked again.

"When your magic power flows throughout your body and your entire body no longer automatically absorbs magic power to strengthen your body, you will be at the peak of a primary warrior. At this time, you only need to add another circle of battle patterns to be promoted to an intermediate warrior."

"What you need to do now is to store up the battle patterns first, and then strengthen your body when you have enough magic power. Otherwise, when you fight, you will have no magic power, and you will be just an ordinary person who is a little stronger."

"Okay, it's getting late. Cultivation requires long-term persistence. Let's stop here for today. Let's take a break and have dinner."

Lin Li and Luca are practicing against each other in the training ground.

With a "pop" sound, they fought each other and then quickly dodged each other. Lin Li turned around quickly, turned the sword half a circle in his hand, and then used his backhand to slash upwards. Luca seemed to know that Lin Li would have this move, and when he dodged each other, he put the sword behind him, and the sword that was slashed up was easily blocked.

"I knew you could do this. I suffered a loss last time. Do you think I would fall for it again?" Luca said proudly.

The two continued to fight, back and forth, tit for tat. However, they were too familiar with each other, and their strengths were almost the same. After fighting for a while, there was still no winner.

At this time, Eudora came over with a basket and said, "Take a break and have something to eat."

Lin Li and Luca put away their wooden swords for practice and walked over.

Luca also took this step half a month after Lin Li became a junior fighter. After that, the two of them often practiced against each other to increase their practical experience.

By the way, did you have any reaction to the awakening potion you drank yesterday?" Lin Li asked Eudora.

"No, this is the fourth bottle, and I'm already twelve years old, but there's no reaction at all. I don't know if I can awaken and become a mage?"

"It's okay. There are still two years left. Believe in yourself."
