The Rebirth of the God of Law: The Lord of the God Realm

News from the Magic Academy

The morning sun shone through the family courtyard as usual, but today, an unusual sense of restlessness permeated the air. A group of clan members gathered in front of the family bulletin board, whispering among themselves, their eyes gleaming with excitement and anticipation. It was the news of the Magic Academy's enrollment, the dream destination of every young magician on the continent, a sacred place dedicated to cultivating exceptional wizards.

Upon hearing this news, Carl felt an overwhelming surge of excitement. He knew the academy held a wealth of knowledge, and perhaps there he could find a way to decipher ancient texts, further enhance his abilities, and unravel the mysteries surrounding him. However, he also knew this opportunity was hard-won, as there was only one spot in the family, and all the young members aspiring to enter the academy would face fierce competition in the selection process.

"Karl, you must participate in this selection. I believe you can do it!" Lillian pulled Karl's arm, her eyes full of trust.

"Well, I must go. The secret of this ancient book may be found in the academy." Carl clenched his fists and looked into the distance with a firm gaze, as if he had already seen himself exploring and seeking knowledge in the magic academy.

As the news spread, the young men in the family preparing for the selection began their intense preparations. The training grounds were packed daily, with all sorts of magical lights flickering and the roar of magic echoing. Carl was no exception, training even more diligently than before. Every day before dawn, he arrived at the training grounds in the back mountains, braving the biting cold wind to practice controlling and combining magic.

During a simulated combat training, Carl met a formidable opponent - Eric. Eric was a famous magic genius in his family, with powerful magic power and extremely skilled magic control.

"Carl, I will not show mercy today." Eric held the magic wand and stared at Carl with sharp eyes.

“Come on, I won’t back down.” Karl looked calm, but his eyes showed determination.

The battle began, and Eric launched the first attack. He chanted an incantation and waved his wand, sending a massive column of fire surging toward Carl. The flames, carrying with them waves of heat, distorted the air wherever they passed. Carl, undeterred, swiftly cast the "Water Curtain Sky Flower" spell, and a massive curtain of water rose before him. The water curtain collided with the flames, instantly producing a massive cloud of steam that filled the entire battlefield.

Eric, taking advantage of the steam's cover, cast the spell "Wind Blade Assault." Countless sharp wind blades pierced through the vapor, hurtling toward Carl. Carl closed his eyes, intently sensing the blades' movement. Just as they were about to strike him, he cast "Phantom Step," weaving through them like a ghost, dodging the attack.

Carl counterattacked, combining earth and wood magic. Thick vines quickly sprouted from the ground beneath his feet. Like serpents, the vines snaked towards Eric, and Eric quickly cast "Vine Burning Flame" magic, burning the vines to ash. But Carl's attack didn't stop. He infused light magic into wind magic, creating shimmering cones of wind that shot towards Eric.

Eric cast the defensive spell "Diamond Shield," and a solid shield, condensed from magical energy, appeared before him. Wind cones struck the shield, splashing bursts of light. The two exchanged blows, and the battle entered a fierce stage.

During the fierce battle, Carl discovered a weakness in Eric. After Eric cast a large spell, his magic power briefly stagnated. Carl seized this opportunity and unleashed a newly developed magic combination—"Thunder Tornado." He first summoned a powerful tornado and then infused it with lightning magic. The tornado, swirling with lightning, swept towards Eric. Eric had no time to dodge and was blown around by the tornado. Although his defensive magic blocked most of the attack, he still took a significant impact.

"I give up." Eric said helplessly. There was both reluctance and a hint of admiration in his eyes as he looked at Carl.

This battle made Carl's reputation in the family even higher, but he did not slack off at all. He knew that there were more powerful opponents waiting for him in the selection.

In addition to his intense training, Carl continued to study ancient texts and search for other clues that might help him. One day, while rummaging through the family basement, he discovered a stone tablet engraved with mysterious runes. The tablet was hidden in a corner of the basement, surrounded by miscellaneous items. If Carl hadn't been careful, he would have missed it.

The runes on this slab were unique in style. When Carl looked closer, he was startled. These runes bore a striking resemblance to those he had witnessed at a forbidden magic ritual in his past life. That memory was filled with darkness and terror, and the scene still haunted him.

"Why is this stone tablet in the family basement? What is the connection between the family and that forbidden ritual?" Carl frowned, his heart filled with confusion. He tried to use his magic to sense the runes on the stone tablet, but as soon as he touched it, he felt a powerful and evil force resisting his exploration.

Carl decided to hide the slate and wait for an opportunity to study it in depth. However, the discovery of the slate made him deeply suspicious of his family's history. He began searching for clues about his family's origins and the slate in the basement in ancient family books and stories of his elders, but found little.

As the selection date approached, tensions grew within the family. The young men prepared for the final sprint, each harboring dreams and hopes. Carl was no exception, spending every day training, researching, and exploring. He knew this selection was crucial, and he couldn't afford to fail.

On the night before the selection, Carl went alone to the family garden. The flowers in the garden exuded a faint fragrance in the moonlight, and the petals gently fell in the breeze, like a dreamlike scene. Carl sat on a bench in the garden, took out the ancient book, and began to read again.

"Karl, why are you still here? The tryouts are tomorrow, you should get some rest." Lillian's voice came from behind. She walked over to Karl and sat down gently.

"I know, but I always feel that I'm not ready. Besides, this slate thing makes me uneasy." Carl looked at Lillian with a hint of worry in his eyes.

"Don't worry, Carl. You are the best. Whether it's the selection or the secret of the slate, you can definitely solve it." Lillian held Carl's hand, trying to give him strength.

Karl looked at Lillian and smiled slightly: "Thank you, Lillian. I feel much better with you around."

The next day, the selection officially began in the family square. The square was packed with clan members, all gathered to watch the fierce competition. The selection consisted of three rounds. The first was a magic test, where the young men had to infuse their magic into a test crystal. The crystal's glow would determine the strength and purity of their magic.

Carl stepped forward, took a deep breath, and slowly poured his magic power into the test crystal. Instantly, the crystal erupted with a dazzling light, shooting straight into the sky and illuminating the entire square. The surrounding tribesmen gasped in amazement; Carl's magic power far surpassed the other contestants in both strength and purity.

After the first round, half of the contestants were eliminated. The second round was a test of magic manipulation, requiring the contestants to complete a series of complex magical tasks within a specified timeframe. Carl performed equally well in this round, skillfully manipulating the magical elements and completing the tasks with ease.

The final round was a combat duel, with the remaining contestants battling in pairs. Carl's opponent was a powerful member of his tribe—Bella. Bella was a female mage skilled in water and ice magic, her magic delicate and flexible.

The battle began, and Bella quickly cast the "Ice Prison" spell, attempting to trap Carl. The ground around Carl quickly became covered in ice, and pillars of icicles rose from the ground, surrounding him. Carl remained calm. He cast the "Fire Fury" spell, and a raging fire erupted from him, rapidly melting the surrounding ice.

Seeing the situation was dire, Bella cast the "Waterspout" spell again, sending a massive waterspout hurtling towards Carl. Carl cast the "Wind Barrier" spell, creating a powerful barrier of air currents that blocked the waterspout's attack. Seizing this opportunity, Carl combined his earth and wood magic, summoning massive vines that entwined Bella.

Bella cast the "Ice Shield" spell, and a solid ice shield appeared before her. The vines collided with the shield, failing to break through, but still causing Bella some difficulty. Carl increased his magic power, causing the vines to grow thicker and more powerful. Cracks began to appear in Bella's shield, and a flicker of panic flashed in her eyes.

Just as Carl was about to attack further, Bella suddenly unleashed a forbidden spell—Absolute Zero. This extremely dangerous spell would freeze everything around her. Sensing the immense danger, Carl quickly cast the "Space Transfer" spell, disappearing from the scene.

When he reappeared, he decided to make a quick decision. He unleashed his most powerful magic combination—"Elemental Judgment." He combined the six magical elements of wind, fire, water, earth, light, and lightning to form a massive beam of light. It shot toward Bella. Feeling the overwhelming force, she tried to dodge, but it was too late.

At the last moment, Carl controlled the power of the magic beam and only knocked Bella out of the battle area without hurting her. After Bella landed, she looked at Carl with gratitude in her eyes: "Thank you, Carl, you are really strong."

After three rounds of fierce selection, Carl stood out and became the candidate in the family recommended to go to the magic academy.
