198: Epitome of Ten Years of Development (IV)
Yes.
Ellie became the next Formal Wizard of Plant Heart Academy after Green.
Only five years after Green, Ellie completed her tempering as a Peak Wizard Apprentice and touched upon the Mind Bottleneck of a Formal Wizard.
And Ellie's Mind Bottleneck was to fulfill the life regret of her Mentor Serena: to organize and perfect a theoretical masterpiece on the reclusive cultivation school of Mind Science.
For Ellie, who was naturally indifferent by nature but possessed immense talent, this was not a difficult task.
Seclusion was meant to reduce worldly troubles and karmic entanglements. Ellie's life experience was rather thin, and she had experienced very little, but her mentor, Serena, had experienced much, so there was a touch of world-weariness to it.
When Green learned of this, he hurriedly stopped her. He didn't want to see Ellie create a "Nun's Heart Sutra" and become a nun who had renounced the world.
Green instilled some of the theoretical thoughts from the Blue Star regarding meditation, spirit-calming, Taoist desires-cleansing, achieving stillness and emptiness, and the unity of heaven and man into Ellie, helping her organize a Mind Science work similar to the "Jade Maiden Heart Sutra".
...
Just like that, it took Ellie two years to complete her work on Mind Science, and she successfully broke through the Mind Bottleneck of a Formal Wizard.
Then, with the help of Green, who had almost scraped the resources of the entire Mist Coast, she took several precious resources, stacking the success rate of the breakthrough to 60%, the same as Green. Ellie completed her breakthrough to Formal Wizard in the 8th year of the 10-year major reform.
With two Formal Wizards guarding it, Plant Heart Academy finally had some foundation.
After 10 years of promotion and inducement, Joyce had successfully recruited 92 Formal Wizards to set off together for the Middle-earth Continent Wizard World.
This was the accumulated heritage of the Mist Coast over the last few hundred years. Basically, all the older generation of Formal Wizards, except for those whose lifespans were nearing their end, went, and eight or nine out of ten of the young and middle-aged Formal Wizards also went.
According to Green's estimation, the number of Formal Wizards remaining in the Mist Coast now was around 50 to 80, and this only counted White Wizards.
You wouldn't know until you calculated it, and it was shocking. Previously, the entire Mist Coast Wizard World had a consensus that the number of Formal Wizards did not exceed 100. As a result, this depth charge blew out a group of hidden old experts, and the number of Formal Wizards in the entire Mist Coast was close to 200.
Many Formal Wizards who should have been dead were living well, and many Formal Wizards whose names had never even been heard of popped up.
However, upon inquiring about their Wizard Apprentice stage, each of them had been a legendary Wizard Apprentice of the Mist Coast with great fame. Everyone thought these people had long since died; unexpectedly, they had quietly broken through to become Formal Wizards.
As for the Black Wizards, after two rounds of joint sweep-and-eliminate operations, only 5 old immortals were hiding on the surface. If one were to ask if there were more Black Wizards, there were certainly a few fish that slipped through the net, but there was no need to worry; they could no longer make a climate.
...
With Mentor Joyce taking the lead and organizing, he took away most of the Formal Wizards of the Mist Coast.
This cleared up a very loose resource environment for the remaining Formal Wizards. The number of people sharing the cake was reduced by more than half, but the cake was continuously growing, so it could be expected that the Mist Coast Wizard World would usher in a good time of vigorous development for a long time to come.
With fewer big shots on top dividing resources, the lives of the Wizard Apprentices below became much easier, and the probability of breaking through to become a Formal Wizard was also greater.
At present, this is the situation in the Mist Coast Wizard World.
It can even be said that the situation of the entire Wizard World is like this.
As the foundation and bottom cornerstone of the Wizard World, the number of Wizard Apprentices is extremely large, but they are also extremely important. Only with a sufficient number, or even a larger number of Wizard Apprentices, can they support the development of the upper echelons of the Wizard World.
Having experienced the World War, the Wizard World, under the influence of elemental recovery, is moving from a destitute state to prosperity.
Reclaiming countless wastelands and cultivating Demonized Plants requires a massive number of Wizard Apprentices;
Mining and exploiting mineral resources, and performing primary processing on various mineral resources requires a massive number of Wizard Apprentices;
Exploring unknown regions, Ancient Secret Realms, and natural secret lands requires a massive number of Wizard Apprentices;
Repairing the scars of the world, mending the wounds of the world, cleaning up the ruins of ancient battlefields, etc., requires a massive number of Wizard Apprentices...
...
It can be said that the prosperity of the entire Wizard World is built on the continuous efforts of countless bottom-level Wizard Apprentices.
Without the demographic dividend of a sufficient number of Wizard Apprentices, where would there be enough resources to pile up one Formal Wizard after another?
It can be said that behind the success of every Formal Wizard are countless resources laid out, and the corpses and blood of countless Wizard Apprentices achieved it.
In a corner of world civilization like the Mist Coast Wizard World, in remote rural places, it is especially necessary to have more demographic dividends to create a Formal Wizard.
Just look at Plant Heart Academy; it took a hundred years of accumulation and the paving of tens of thousands of Wizard Apprentices to produce this one Formal Wizard, Green.
As for this Formal Wizard, Ellie.
She was piled up by scraping the resources of the entire Mist Coast after Green gained insight into the truth of the whole world.
...
Over the past 10 years, Plant Heart Academy successfully completed the construction of 6 Auxiliary Wizard Towers.
Not only did it not cause the academy's finances to go bankrupt or incur huge debts, but on the contrary, it stored a massive amount of strategic materials and funds for the academy, and also extended the dividends of the great reform and development to all Wizard Apprentices of the Plant Heart Academy.
The average assets of the Wizard Apprentices of Plant Heart Academy now have skyrocketed by more than 5 or 6 times compared to 10 years ago. Many Wizard Apprentices who were originally limited by insufficient resources and trapped in place have also begun to strive to catch up. In these 10 years, Plant Heart Academy has also erupted with a wave of elite breakthroughs, and many genius figures have even emerged.
Therefore, everyone in Plant Heart Academy appreciates Green, and today Green's reputation in Plant Heart Academy is at its zenith.
A famous saying by The Crown of the Scales of Truth: "Every gift of fate has a price marked on it."
So, what price did Plant Heart Academy pay?
In 10 years, 12 medium-sized wizard forces in the Mist Coast merged into Plant Heart Academy, bringing with them resources accumulated over dozens, hundreds, or even hundreds of years. (Their Formal Wizard leaders followed Lord Joyce.)
In 10 years, 139 small wizard forces (Wizard families) in the Mist Coast, either by joining entirely or by splitting parts of their forces to join, each brought their own dry rations, family wealth, and manpower to join the big family of Plant Heart Academy.
In 10 years, Plant Heart Academy recruited 5,649 Rogue Wizard Apprentices to settle in the Auxiliary Wizard Towers. Among them, 612 Rogue Wizards joined as external students of Plant Heart Academy by completing contribution tasks, and 103 Rogue Wizard Apprentices became internal students (insiders) of Plant Heart Academy by contributing a large amount of knowledge inheritance or wizard treasures.
...
And Plant Heart Academy only paid some costs that were insignificant in Green's eyes:
6 Auxiliary Wizard Towers, 49% of the shares of each Auxiliary Wizard Tower were given to the various small and medium forces that joined (Plant Heart Academy still holds absolute controlling rights and management dominance; these small and medium forces only have dividend rights and partial management rights.)
6 Auxiliary Wizard Towers, 80% of the surrounding land and the ownership of the buildings in the auxiliary towers (100-year term, not permanent) were all sold. (Engaging in real estate, Green is serious. Without engaging in real estate, where would the huge profits come from? Where would the quick money come from?)
Some advanced study quotas for the main Wizard Tower (including quotas for external and internal students; the preciousness of education has created the brilliance of school district housing, but in the Wizard World, systematic knowledge and inheritance are no less inferior. Just selling these advanced study quotas is comparable to the income from selling land in real estate.)
So, in summary, Green played new tricks in the rational use of resources. It was a little worse than "getting something for nothing", but it was still exchanging extremely low costs for countless resources, including some precious resources to assist in breaking through to Formal Wizard, and relying on the destiny accumulated by these small and medium forces for decades or hundreds of years to help Ellie become a new Formal Wizard.
