Chapter 118: First Tower Climb Record!
The countless light spots were spread out like an ocean, allowing Eddie to grab them at will.
If one were to fish here, one didn’t even need to swing the rod, one could just let the line down and a fish would take the bait.
It was not until this huge wave of magic power disappeared that Eddie got up to check his current stats.

Looking at his current stats, he was only short of a few points to advance a tier, but Eddie felt a little uncomfortable to be left hanging like this.
Although Autumn had said that one could choose the rewards in the Trial Tower according to one’s will, but the good rewards for the previous floors had all been taken by Eddie’s seniors, and thus only the reward of magic power replenishment was left.
However, even the replenishment wasn’t enough for Eddie to fulfill his goal of directly advancing a tier.
At the same time, Eddie still wanted to test himself as to how high he could climb in the Tower.
Logically speaking, with his current state, it wasn’t suitable for Eddie to continue challenging the Tower.
Although his magic power had been replenished in time, the fatigue after using spiritual power and brainpower couldn’t be replenished no matter how much magic power was replenished.
However, Eddie didn’t want to waste the chance. He wanted to see how far he could go.
What strength did he have now?
After recovering a little, Eddie walked straight into the light door.
Simultaneously, Eddie’s speed in climbing the Trial Tower caused quite a sensation.
… … … . .
On the 15th floor of the Trial Tower in the Saint Bauhinia Magic Academy, Orlando, a tier 5 mage, was breathing heavily.
Of the five tier-2 magic wolves on the 15th floor, he had already killed three and was left with two to deal with.
One was snow-white, with a sacred aura about it, while the other was dark as night, and was staring at Orlando with its dark eyes.
The former was a light element magic wolf, while the latter was a dark element magic wolf.
Not only would a tier 2 dark element magic wolf hide in the shadows and launch sneak attacks, but it could also instantly cast shadow balls from its mouth and hide its attacks in the shadows.
Just now, Orlando’s magic shield was almost destroyed by the attack of the shadow ball.
Just as Orlando’s magic shield was about to shatter, he immediately cast an “acceleration spell” on himself, and his body immediately became nimble and fast.
After barely dodging a black shadow ball, Orlando thought that he had succeeded in dodging all attacks.
Just then, a white ball of light suddenly shot over.
That was the attack from the light element magic wolf.
“Gravity spell!”
Orlando immediately cast a gravity spell on himself, enabling him to forcefully distort his movements and dodge this attack.
Orlando used his agile body to start circling the two magic wolves. From time to time, he would throw wind blades at the magic wolves, cutting out light fragments from their bodies.
He majored in wind element magic.
Finally, just as Orlando’s magic power was about to be exhausted, he successfully killed the two magic wolves.
The strength of tier 2 magic wolves with mutated attributes was almost comparable to that of a tier 5 magic wolf.
There were five magic wolves of different elements, and they were attacking in such a dense manner. If he had not majored in the wind element, nor had he used other spells to coordinate his moves, then he wouldn’t even have had the chance to lure them around. He would’ve just been surrounded and killed.
For Orlando, an intermediate mage who had just advanced to tier 5, the Trial Tower was really too tough.
Almost the instant he cleared the floor, Orlando sat cross-legged and quickly recovered his magic power.
For every five floors, there would be a threshold challenge. This was something that all the students who had challenged the Trial Tower knew.
It was not easy to clear the 15th floor.
A hint of bitterness appeared on Orlando’s face. He had very little magic power left.
Even if he added in the magic power he got from clearing the floor, he would only be able to recover less than a quarter of his total magic power.
Let’s give it a try.
If he did not encounter any earth element or ice element magic beasts that were proficient in defense, he might still have a chance.
Either way, his results were already very eye-catching even among tier 5 mages.
Many tier-5 mages had yet to clear the 15th floor.
“I wonder which floor those guys are on?” Orlando thought of his classmates.
This was the question he was most concerned about.
During the first time one challenges the Trial Tower, one would have to start from the first floor, and a mark will be left at the floor where the first-time challenger stopped.
Of course, such a mark would only appear during the first time.
As such, It could be said to be a bench for comparison among the students who were climbing the Tower for the first time.
Records were made on whoever could climb faster or higher.
In the future, these records would become one of the important criteria for evaluations in the Academy.
It was a praised act to compare one’s Trial Tower achievements with others in the Academy.
After Orlando rested for a while, he calculated the magic power he had left.
Including the magic power consumption on the previous floors, he could at most reach the 16th floor before his current mana would be exhausted.
For the other students who weren’t proficient in the wind element, they probably wouldn’t even be able to get past the 15th floor.
Thinking of this, Orlando’s gaze relaxed slightly.
Since that was the case, he might as well exit the Tower directly.
Since he wouldn’t be able to get past the 16th level anyway. The feeling of his spiritual power exploding wasn’t good either.
At this moment, the recovery time was up. Orlando directly chose to exit the Tower.
“Someone’s out! Someone’s out!”
Outside the Trial Tower, someone exclaimed.
Orlando walked out of the Trial Tower with a pale face, looking slightly disheveled.
This was a sign of excessive consumption of spiritual power.
“15th floor! Orlando has already reached the 15th floor!”
“Amazing, many fourth grade students are unable to clear the 15th floor! You actually succeeded in one try!”
“As expected of a genius!”
“He’s definitely going to be one of the future representatives of the Academy! Big Brother, help me too!”
Praise and exclamations rang out one after another.
Orlando’s face immediately revealed a proud and complacent look.
Looking at the surrounding students’ gazes of admiration and worship, Orlando felt that he was floating with pride now.
Facing the praise of these students, Orlando nodded somewhat embarrassed as he said, “It’s a pity that I didn’t have much magic power left. Otherwise, I could have cleared the 16th floor… Oh right, have the others come out?”
“Yeah, they’re all out.”
Orlando was not surprised to hear that the other students had come out as he had personally experienced the difficulty of the 15th floor.
“Then, what’s my rank in climbing the tower this time?”
In Orlando’s estimation, if all his peers came out earlier than him, then he was definitely the first place this time.
“Orlando, you’re second this time. Your results can be said to be pretty good.”
“Huh? Second?”
How could someone climb higher than him?
Orlando frowned and subconsciously looked at the screen.
In the next moment, he was stunned.
“Life: Unknown.”
“Trial Tower’s First Record: 21st Floor.”
“That’s impossible!” Orlando exclaimed.
