East Capital, a seven-layer sorcerer tower.
Sorcerer Ivan flew out from the upper layers of the sorcerer tower and before he even landed, a swamp ant had already flown up from the ground beneath him, steadying him as he touched down.
"Sorcerer Ivan, shall we head back now?"
"Let's go back."
Observing that he was deep in thought about something, the swamp ant didn't pry further and slowly carried him back towards the Rapid Wood Tower.
Ivan was pondering the conversation he had just had with President Hardy.
This time, he had actually come to consult President Hardy about advancing in the arcane arts.
For any sorcerer, advancing in the arcane is undoubtedly a major challenge.
This hurdle had stymied many exceptionally talented individuals. Although he had a complete plan and had prepared accordingly, as the moment approached, he couldn't help but waver.
After much deliberation, he decided to seek advice from President Hardy, who was also a Great Sage.
