Wizard: Unlimited Profession Slots Chapter 1237 - 500: Nation and Enlightenment

After several days of separation training, Ron was already able to independently control each type of Bloodline Power.
The current challenge was to learn how to precisely control doubly compressed Magic Power.
"Compressing magic is like concentrated drink."
Uther used a life-like analogy:
"Its ’flavor’ is stronger and the Effect more potent, but if you want a regular drink, you need to learn to dilute and blend."
The fifth day of training started from the most basic "candle lighting exercise."
Uther placed an ordinary white candle in the center of the training room:
"Light up this candle with your compressed Magic Power, but do not burn it.
The requirement is to keep the flame stably burning, with the height controlled to about two centimeters."
This requirement sounded simple, but for Ron, who was using high-density Magic Power, it was a huge challenge.
On his first attempt, the candle was shattered by the powerful Magic Power surge.
On his second attempt, he tried to reduce the Magic Power output, but the candle only heated slightly without igniting.
On the third attempt, he finally lit it, but the flame reached half a meter high, nearly triggering the training room’s safety system.
"Your problem now is treating compressed Magic Power as a ’whole’ in use."
Uther patiently guided from the side:
"You need to learn ’gradient release,’ and restore the compressed Magic Power to different densities as needed.
This requires real-time density adjustments during output, like adjusting the water flow from a faucet."
After a whole day of repeated practice, Ron finally mastered the basic dilution technique.
The candle was stably lit, the flame height maintained within the ideal range, and the burn was steady and lasting.
The training difficulty escalated on the sixth day: "Multi-channel parallel control."
Uther placed five candles in a pentagon shape in the training room:
"Light all candles simultaneously, but the flame height of each candle must be different."
This exercise required dividing Magic Power into five strands of different intensity outputs, each needing independent density control.
It’s like performing different fine operations with five hands simultaneously, demanding high levels of awareness division and multitasking.
Fortunately, Ron inherently possessed the extraordinary computing ability brought by the Wisdom Triangle, along with long-term cultivation of awareness division skills.
After a day’s adaptation, he successfully completed this seemingly impossible task.
Next was the "comprehensive fine control test."
Uther designed a complex magic maze—a three-dimensional structure composed entirely of Energy, containing dozens of different levels and mechanisms.
"You need to control a magic ball and let it traverse through the entire maze to reach the end."
The old professor explained the rules in detail:
"Each level demands different magic density.
Some need extremely high Energy density to activate mechanisms, while others require very low density to avoid triggering traps.
Moreover, the moving speed and trajectory transformations of the ball must be absolutely precise."
This exercise integrated all the techniques learned over the previous days:
Density adjustment, multi-channel control, precise direction.
Ron explored the maze for an entire day, failing countless times.
But each failure deepened his understanding of Magic Power control.
When he finally succeeded, the sense of accomplishment was unparalleled.
Not only did he regain control over his powers, but he also gradually learned how different power systems could coexist better.
After the ninth day of training, Uther invited Ron for another conversation.
This time, they arrived at the historical records room of the observation station, surrounded by countless tomes and crystals recording the development History of Wizard Civilization.
"You are about to enter a deeper level of Moon, facing the most important choice of your life."
Uther’s tone was unusually serious, the glow of Void Remains appeared extraordinarily sacred in the dim data room:
"I want to talk to you in detail about the real path from Moon Level Mage to Great Wizard, and the deep logic behind this path."
The old professor took out a heavy tome from the bookshelf, its cover inscribed with Ancient Mage text "On Layer Advancement":
"Today, we discuss more realistic topics."
Uther’s fingers glided over the paper, pointing at different areas:
"About the true structure of Wizard Society, regarding the power distribution mechanism, and the choices you are about to face."
The parchment illustrated a pyramid-like structure.
The bottom layer consisted of a large number of Apprentices, the middle layer had relatively few Morning Star and Moonlight Level Mage, the upper layer comprised major Dark Sun Level deans and Elders, and the top layer were the Great Wizards as faction leaders.
As for the Witch King, as a great entity, naturally he has transcended the conventional system, which was expected by Ron.
"First, let’s discuss the Moonlight Level Mage you are currently at."
Uther’s finger paused at the middle-lower layer of the pyramid:
"The outside always sees the Moon Level Mage as the ’successors’ who have emerged from the sand and grit Morning Star Level.
But in reality, wizards at this level face the most fierce competition and cruelest choices."
"The vast majority of Moonlight Level Mage are preparing to advance to Dark Sun Level.
This preparation requires putting all their energy into three core tasks."
The old professor drew out three circles on the parchment, each containing complex symbols:
"First, perform Magic Power compression to lay the foundation for Void Remains gathering."
"You have already started on this, and understand its difficulties.
But know that most Moonlight Level Mage will encounter countless failures in this process."
