I Only Know Forbidden Spells - Chapter 13
The theoretical knowledge class in the afternoon was quickly over.
Today, Lin An also understood a lot of information on the Star Continent.
Magical beasts and races, this was an eye-opener for Lin An.
Ordinary people might not be able to come into contact with these things in their lifetime, but sorcerers could come into contact with them easily.
After all, if they encountered a beast tide, when the pressure on the front line was very great, the kingdom would communicate with the Magic Association and send sorcerers to need support.
Some magic sorcerers registered in the Magic Association would even receive missions from time to time to guard the border.
However, these weren’t things that Lin An should be thinking about right now. An apprentice magic sorcerer still didn’t have the right to participate.
At this time, the students in the classroom were all preparing to leave class and return to their dorms.
However, Sophia, who was standing on the podium, said coldly, “Did I say that class is over?”
Immediately, the students were puzzled.
What else was there to do after the class was over?
Sophia said, “Next, we need to carry out physical training.”
Hearing this, everyone was surprised.
Teacher Sophia! Don’t you know that we are sorcerers?
Shouldn’t physical training be something that a swordsman without cultivation talent should do?
Should we let sorcerers use their physical bodies to fight the enemy?
Although the students were dissatisfied, they did not dare to show it on the surface.
Sophia seemed to have guessed what everyone was thinking and said, “I know what you are trying to say. Do you think that sorcerers don’t need to train their bodies?”
Looking at the students’ agreeing eyes, Sophia said very seriously, “This kind of thinking is wrong!”
“A real powerful sorcerer must have a strong physical body. If there is a battle and a long-distance raid, do we have to let the soldiers carry us on the battlefield? Even if we can use wind magic and magic equipment to travel, do we still need to use magic energy to travel when we are about to face a battle?”
“If there is a powerful warrior close to us, are we just going to sit and wait for death?”
“So, you don’t have to be too strong, but you definitely can’t be too weak.”
Although what Sophia said was very correct, in the minds of the public, they did not agree with this statement.
What was the purpose of being a sorcerer?
Wasn’t it for the sake of having a high status so that he could enjoy a comfortable life?
If that was the case, why would they have to endure physical pain?
Moreover, in the traditional sorcerer’s impression, a sorcerer should just stand in place and cast magic.
Of course, only sorcerers who had never been on the battlefield would think so.
…
The training ground.
Many magic apprentices were training here.
When Sophia brought the Class 1 students here, there were already many people here.
On the empty ground, someone was casting magic summoning, summoning cute little monsters.
There were also people who used magic equipment to learn to fly under the guidance of their teachers.
This was a very magical thing in the outside world, but it was very common here.
When Sophia brought everyone here, Sophia pointed at the training field and said, “Today’s training is not hard. Run five kilometers around the field.”
Five kilometers!
To the students, this was a very long distance.
However, no one dared to oppose Sophia’s orders. They could only start running.
At this moment, Lin An was stunned on the spot because the system had just issued a mission.
“Ding dong! Issued mission: Run for 20 kilometers.”
“You will receive 5,000 points if you complete the mission.”
20 kilometers!
Four times the amount of training.
Lin An felt the pain even before the training started.
Wasn’t this going to exhaust him to death?
However, Lin An could only brace himself and run.
After all, 5,000 points was still very important to Lin An.
The students of class one began to run on the training ground.
“Free wind power, please give me the ability…”
Among the students, someone began to chant an incantation.
A gust of wind blew, and a faint whirlwind surrounded one of the students’ feet.
With the support of the whirlwind, this student’s running speed became faster, and it didn’t consume any of his stamina. This scene was witnessed by the other students, and they all imitated it.
All kinds of magic were released at the same time, and many people ran effortlessly under the support of magic.
Lin An was extremely depressed when he saw this scene.
He couldn’t cast these ordinary spells. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be so difficult to train.
At this moment, a ray of light landed on his body.
Immediately, a warm feeling flowed all over his body and the tiredness from running was swept away.
Lin An looked over and saw that Susanna was smiling at him.
“Thank you,” Lin An said.
It was very obvious that this light was a spell that Susanna had cast, and it had helped him.
“It’s fine. Do your best,” Susanna encouraged him.
At this moment, Sophia, who was standing at the edge of the training ground, saw the situation on the field. There was no movement, but she was very helpless in her heart.
Sorcerers trained their bodies, and it was indeed a conflict with traditional beliefs.
However, Sophia had once fought on the front line.
She had seen many sorcerers being torn apart by groups of magic beasts due to the exhaustion of the magic energy in their bodies. They did not have the ability to resist at all.
As for those sorcerers with better physical fitness, even if they could not rely on the strength of their bodies to defeat the magic beasts, they could still have a chance to escape.
Moreover, in the kingdom’s highest magic academy, sorcerers were already carrying out the order to train their bodies. They could only graduate after their bodies had reached the strength of high-level swordsmen.
This led to the sorcerers who graduated from that magic academy to each have a strength that far exceeded that of sorcerers of the same realm.
Thinking of this, Sophia had no other way.
It was basically impossible to change the traditional concept.
These students used magic to perfunctorily train, and Sophia did not want to force them.
After all, even if she forced them, there was not much meaning.
Could it be that she alone could change the training method that had been passed down for tens of thousands of years?
However, Sophia was very clear that if they wanted to be truly powerful, they had to train her physical body at the same time.
On the continent, there were such geniuses.
Cultivating both magic and martial arts, easily challenging those of a higher level!
