Chapter 43: Ancient Magical Civilizations

Soon, Leon arrived at the library, and saw an old man with a wrinkled face and gray hair sitting in a rocking chair at the entrance, smoking a pipe and holding a large, thick book in his hand.

This old man should be the administrator of the library, Li Ang coughed, showed the student identification card to the old administrator, and said, "Hello, I want to enter the library to read some materials!"

The old man looked up at Li Ang's identity badge and said, "It's all kinds of basic knowledge, you can go in and look at it casually, if you want to borrow it, you must pay a thousand gold coins as a deposit!"

Leon nodded, thanked the old man, and walked into the library.

Suddenly, Leon came to a huge room covering an area of tens of thousands of square meters, in which rows of bookshelves were neatly arranged, and heavy books were placed on it.

Li Ang checked it and found that the books on the shelves were divided according to types, including linguistic knowledge, rune knowledge, formation knowledge, alchemy knowledge, herbology knowledge, mineral knowledge and other major categories.

Leon first walked to the bookshelf of linguistic knowledge.

Language is the foundation of all knowledge, and only by mastering the various languages related to magic can Leon be able to learn the basics of magic better.

Soon, he pulled out a thick Old Elf dictionary from the bookshelf and flipped through it.

Li Ang read the book very quickly, basically turning the pages of the book to finish it, but in fact, he didn't read it at all, but let the auxiliary magic spirit in his brain directly record the knowledge on the page.

Although Li Ang's intelligence is already very high, he can do ten lines at a glance and never forget, but reading books like this consumes mental power, and where is it more refreshing than assisting the magic spirit to help record.

There were also some students reading books next to them, and when they saw Li Ang's actions, most of them secretly shook their heads, thinking that Li Ang didn't pay attention to reading books at all, and it was a waste of time to flip through books like this.

Suddenly, a female student wearing black-rimmed glasses and a very delicate face walked over and asked Li Ang curiously, "Have you memorized the contents of these books?"

Li Ang was stunned, then nodded and said, "Yes, I wrote it down!"

The female student said in surprise: "So, you already have extraordinary intelligence, and your talent is very high, well, are you willing to join the Ancient Magic Civilization Exploration Society, I am Christina, the president of the Ancient Magic Civilization Exploration Society, there was a splendid magic civilization in ancient times in this world, and it is said that the ancient mages even had the power comparable to the gods, but then the magic civilization disappeared mysteriously, only some documents and ancient relics remained, and our society specializes in studying this magic civilization!"

When Li Ang heard this, he couldn't help but feel a move in his heart. He needs to collect a large amount of information, so that the auxiliary magic spirit can perform perfect exercises, so as to reduce the difficulty of advancing to the transcendent level and the holy level, and join this ancient magic civilization exploration club, maybe he can get in touch with some magic materials of ancient magic civilization.

Thinking of this, Li Ang nodded and said, "Okay, I can join your club, what procedures do I need to go through?"

Christina smiled slightly and said: "Tomorrow afternoon, you prepare the entrance fee of ten gold coins, just report to the club headquarters in the leisure area, our club has collected a lot of documents about ancient magical civilizations, you can take a look, we will also regularly organize teams to explore the ruins of ancient magical civilizations, and you can also participate at that time!"

Li Ang happily agreed: "Okay, I will definitely go tomorrow!"

Christina nodded to Leon and turned to the other row of bookshelves.

Leon continued to flip through the books on the shelves in front of him.

However, there were too many books in the library, and Li Ang only read more than a hundred books on a shelf after flipping through them for a long time.

It was late afternoon, and Leon was already a little hungry, so he left the library and walked towards the dining hall in the living quarters.

When Leon arrives at the cafeteria, he happens to meet Brand, Britney, and Yulia.

"Brother Leon, this way!" Yulia stood up and beckoned to Leon repeatedly.

Leon nodded and walked over to Yulia and the others.

But at this moment, a man with tangled muscles suddenly stood in front of Li Ang.

Li Ang frowned, and said lightly, "Please let go!"

The muscular man smiled coldly and said, "Are you Li Ang, who ranks first among the new students, you are very arrogant, as soon as you came in, you injured so many people in our martial arts department!"

When Li Ang heard this, he immediately understood that this muscular man should have come out for the dozen or so Luke's students.

Li Ang shook his head and said: "I am not arrogant, the situation at that time was that I was beaten by more than a dozen people, and I was just forced to defend myself and fight back, are they only allowed to beat me, and I am not allowed to fight back?"

The muscular man snorted coldly and said, "You obviously already have the strength of the transcendent level, but you deliberately suppressed the strength to enter the academy, I think you have ill intentions, I want to represent the academy, tear off your disguise, and see where you are sacred!"

Li Ang sneered: "Who are you, who dare to claim to represent the academy?"

The muscular man said proudly: "I am Balu of the Martial Arts Department, the tenth in the Heavenly List of the Shinra Royal Academy, according to the rules of our Academy, the top ten students on the Heavenly List have the right to discipline other students on behalf of the Academy to maintain discipline and order!"

Li Ang frowned and said, "What is this Heavenly List, why can the top ten students on the Heavenly List discipline other students, I have never heard of such a rule!"

At this time, Yulia and the others came over, stood beside Li Ang, and said loudly: "That's it, we have never heard of such a rule!"

At this time, a handsome man wearing gold-rimmed glasses walked up to Ba Lu, and said with a sneer: "What Ba Lu said is true, this is a tradition that our academy has adhered to for hundreds of years, and the top ten students on the heavenly list represent the face of the academy, even if you meet a big nobleman, you don't need to salute, and you have the right to discipline other students on behalf of the academy, but this discipline can be taught, or it can be a lesson!"

Many students who were eating in the cafeteria also gathered one after another, and some guys who were afraid that the world would not be chaotic stood on Balu's side, clamoring loudly for him to teach Li Ang a good lesson.

The other students, although most of them were dissatisfied with Balu's arrogance and domineering, dared to be angry but did not dare to speak.

At this time, Balu waved his hand disdainfully and said: "Boy, I won't bully you, as long as you can take my ten moves, I will let you go, if not, you will obediently apologize to those martial arts students who were injured by you, and also compensate for medical expenses and mental damages!"

Li Ang snorted coldly and said: "Why do I need you to let it go, just because you also want to bully me, it's just wishful thinking, come if you want to fight, I will let you know what it means to have people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the sky!"

Balu grinned and said, "What a hard-mouthed boy, I'm going to beat you to your knees and beg for mercy!"

As he spoke, Balu took a step forward and punched Leon hard.

Seeing this, Li Ang did not take out his twin swords, but instead used a fighting skill that was only one level 1, and his left hand slashed away from Balu's fist, and then his right hand slammed into Balu's head.

Balu didn't dodge, and smashed it with a punch against Leang.

Suddenly, the fists of the two shook each other heavily, and there was a loud "bang".

A wave of qi suddenly spread in all directions, shaking Leon and Balu into a muffled snort at the same time, and each took several steps backwards.

And the people who stood around and watched were also shocked to the point that their bodies were unstable and retreated again and again.

"Damn boy, you've really gathered your fighting spirit!" Balu said as he glared at Leon and gritted his teeth.

Li Ang also snorted coldly and said, "Your fighting spirit is not weak!"

It turned out that at this time, Li Ang and Balu had already risen a fighting spirit respectively.

Li Ang's Dou Qi is a gray analog version of the Broken Sky Dou Qi, while Balu's Dou Qi is yellow-brown, which seems to be an earth-based Dou Qi.

At this time, the students who were watching around began to discuss.

"It turns out that Balu has already condensed his fighting spirit, and this time his heavenly ranking should be able to move up a few places!"

"Hmph, what is the fighting spirit, which of the top ten on the heavenly list is not a genius among geniuses, the guy in front of him has already condensed his magic power or fighting energy, and Balu has only condensed his fighting spirit now, it's already too late!"

"That is, Catherine, the first-ranked princess of the Empire, is already a magical swordsman at the peak of the transcendental rank, and Rudolph, the second-ranked prince of the God of War Kingdom, is a senior warrior of the transcendent rank, and the third-ranked prince of the mercenary kingdom, Saruman, is also a senior berserker of the transcendent rank, and the fourth to ninth in the back are also masters who have already advanced to the transcendent rank!"

Others have developed a strong interest in Leon.

"This Li Ang is too genius, he is only eighteen years old, he has just entered the academy, and he has condensed his fighting spirit, how did he cultivate!"

"Something is wrong, his fighting spirit seems to be very unstable, I don't know if it's because the realm is unstable, or if there's something wrong!"

"Anyway, this Leon can confront Balu head-on, which shows that he has the strength to be not inferior to Balu, maybe this time Balu will be defeated by Leon and lose the top ten rankings on the heavenly list, do you want to bet, I bet that Leon will win, ten gold coins!"

"Hmph, I bet that Balu will win, a hundred gold coins ......!"

Soon, the surrounding students actually opened a bet for Leon and Balu, betting on the winners and losers of the two.

However, the call for Balu to win is relatively high, and the odds are one to one, but there are very few people who are optimistic about Li Ang, and the odds are one to ten.

Leon rolled his eyes and suddenly said to Balu, "Wait a minute, I have something to say!"
