Chapter 7: Psychic Energy ? Mountain Palaces.

Lafurge stood beside the pond as he looked at the participants, suddenly he waved his hands and pulled a participant out of the pond, after coming out, The participant was unfrozen and soon regained his consciousness.

" This...What happened ?! "

Lafurge looked at him and said with a plain face, " Your heart was about to stop beating, so I pulled you out that\'s all. "

The Participant opened his mouth, but closed it after a few seconds and did not say anything but turned his attention towards other frozen participants.

Another minute passed before Lafurge took out two more participants, now only Athan and another participant were left inside the pond.

After 30 seconds, He pulled out the other participant, Now the only one left in the pond was Athan.

Lafurge thought about the previous round performance of Athan as he thought, \' This lad got terrifying will power, He will most certainly become an Elemental Sorcerer if he doesn\'t lose his fighting spirit after a decade or two. \'

Athan\'s thinking was currently slowed to the extreme, he could not think of anything now, and he only had one wish right now, and that was to sleep. but he knows that if he falls asleep, then it would be over and so, He kept trying to not fall asleep even when his brain\'s dexterity was almost zero right now.

Outside, Lafurge had a weird expression on his face as he thought, \' What kind of beast are you? Hurry up and give in so that I can pull you out. \'

5 minutes later...

One of the participants raised his hand and spoke as he saw Lafurge glancing at him, " He is not dead right? " he spoke while pointing at the frozen Athan.

Lafurge sneered and said, " Don\'t lump trash like you and him together, I have a feeling that This kid has a beast hidden within him, its just a matter of time when it awakens, His body and brain are in strange synergy right now, He will not die even if he stays here for days, but it will also not benefit him now that he has already adapted to this state, guess the 3rd round is also over now. "

Finishing speaking, he waved his hand and pulled out frozen Athan from the pond.

After coming out, Athan soon snapped out of his strange state as his brain regained its normal functions.

Seeing this, Lafurge spoke, " Now that 3rd round is over, I\'ll bring you all to the place where you\'ll be staying and working. "

Saying this Lafurge took out a chariot from thin air, which dumbfounded everyone.

After sitting in the front, He looked at all participants and said, " What are you all daydreaming for? hurry up if you want to enter the Thunder-Fire Valley. "

Everyone then snapped out of their thoughts and hopped into the chariot which had enough space to hold 10 people at back and two people at the front.

Seeing that everyone got into the chariot, Lafurge Pressed his hand against a square slate that was in front of him which prompted the chariot to float and move forward in the air.

While moving Athan asked, " Can Elemental Warriors fly? "

Lafurge looked at him and said with a faint smile, " Elemental Warriors...can not fly. "

Everyone showed a disappointed expression but then came...

" But..."

\' Here we go again....\' Everyone wanted to show their middle fingers at Lafurge but they restrained themselves as they wouldn\'t want to be thrown out from the chariot by this guy.

" But it\'s not impossible to achieve a power to fly as an Elemental Warrior because the things you saw me doing like, Flying in the sky, pulling you out from the pond, etc is not related to Elemental Energies, But Another Power called Psychic Energy When An Elemental Sorcerer wants to become an Elemental Mage, They first have to Unlock the Psychic Realm and Produce Psychic Energy, This Energy is crucial if one wants to practice further on the path of Elemental Sorcerer. "

Seeing the expression on everyone\'s faces, The corner of Lafurge\'s mouth turned upward as he continues, " Elemental Warriors can similarly unlock the Psychic Realm, And It\'s even easier than gaining an Affinity of an element while practicing, Your resolve and Will just need to be sufficiently powerful as Psychic Energy is related to our Brain. "

Everyone revealed longing expression hearing what Lafurge said and swore to never give up on the path of Elemental Warriors. Well, Time will tell if their resolve is sufficient or not.

After flying for about 10 more minutes, They arrived on a Mountain range, Each Mountain on this range was more than twice the size of Outer Thunder-Fire Palace where the Examination was conducted...And There were so many Palaces and buildings on this whole mountain range.

Athan was gobsmacked by this sight as he thought, \' Damn, Each Mountain on this range is either the same size as Mount Everest or bigger. \'

( note: If you want to imagine how big they are, then u can look up mount Everest which is equivalent to the size of 20 Empire State Buildings stacked on top of each other, And The wideness is even more as It\'s the whole Mountain range. )

Lafurge spoke as they landed on one of the mountains on the left side of the mountain range, " This whole Mountain range is Inner Thunder-Fire Valley, Each of these Mountain have palaces built upon them after adjusting their peaks, So they are called Mountain Palaces. "

Athan wanted to inquire about mike so he raised his hand and spoke after getting a signal from Lafurge, " Is Mike here? When can I meet him? "

Lafurge\'s gaze turned strange as he answered, " Mike is not here, He is at Core-Part of Thunder-Fire Valley which is even deeper, The Head-Quarter of Thunder-Fire Valley is also located there. " Pausing here, His gaze showed pity as he looked at Athan and said, " Your Friend Mike\'s situation is very special, You and he are people of different worlds now, It will be very difficult for you to meet with him in the future. I won\'t say anything anymore, You will find out everything tomorrow. "

After that, He led everyone inside the palace. This Palace was bigger than Outer Thunder-Fire Valley Palace.

There were a lot of people going in and out of pathways and doors, The pathway leading to another side of the mountain, where other buildings were situated.

Lafurge led everyone on a pathway as they arrived at a place where a lot of houses were built, The environment was very good with greenery everywhere and a small river that went downstream.

" One house per person, After picking your house, Write your Name on that Tag outside, There is a common knowledge book on the table inside your house, read it carefully before sleeping, The food will arrive after an hour meanwhile you can change your attire and wash your clothes at the river. "

Everyone nodded as Lafurge continued with a serious expression, " Tomorrow at 8 AM, I want everyone to be standing here. If your supervisor sees someone absent then that person will be DIRECTLY kicked out of the Thunder-Fire Valley, And your working place has already determined according to your performance so I will not allow any complaints, understood? "

" YES!! " Everyone shouted in response.

Lafurge nodded with satisfaction as he said, " Good, Now if you want to eat better food, then you can either Hunt Monsters or go to the Cafeteria which you will be able to find after asking someone here, Every mountain is connected in this mountain range, so u can go to another mountain through the road on this mountain, No need to descend this mountain in order to go to another mountain. Alright Farewell, I will not be coming after today, I wish you all become Elemental Sorcerers in your life. " Saying this he flew up.

But before flying away, He looked back as if he remembered something and threw a wooden plate towards Athan while speaking, " Tomorrow After you come back from work, Show this wooden plate at the desk in this mountain palace if you want to meet Mike. " After that Lafurge flew away.

All Participants then scattered and went to choose their house, Tho there were only 8 houses and each one looked exactly the same.

Athan entered 8th House which was also one that was near the River and went inside after writing his name on the tag. The house was not that big, One floor, One room, One small hall, one table in the hall and a cupboard in the room.

After putting his bag on the bed in the room, He picked up the book that was on the table.

Stages of Elemental Sorcerers ( From Stage 1 to Stage 5 )

Stage 1: Elemental Guider

- In this stage, The Elemental Sorcerer can only guide Elemental energies into their body to form the Elemental Sea. ( Each element needs its own unique Elemental Sea, Two elements can\'t co-exist in one elemental sea. ) ) After one successfully forms an Elemental Sea, They enter the 2nd Stage.

-------------------------------------------

Stage 2: Elemental Apprentice

- In this stage, Practitioners learn how to proficiently borrow & control the energy inside their Elemental Sea...When They can successfully cast the lowest-tier Ability of their respective element like Fire Ball, Earth Shards, Water Gun, etc. They are considered to have solidified their status as Elemental Apprentice.

-------------------------------------------

Stage 3: Elemental Journeyman

- In this stage, Practitioners have to expand their Elemental Sea to increase their reservoir of Elemental Energy, And it generally takes a long time to do so...They can be considered to have solidified their status as Elemental Journeyman if they can cast High-Level Abilities That do not require complex control Like Fire Rain, Water Cannon, ThunderBolts, Earth Wall, etc.

-------------------------------------------

Stage 4: Elemental Master

- In This stage, Practitioners have to hone their control over a big reservoir of elemental Energy in the Elemental Sea to cast complex and high-level Abilities Like Fire Wings, Healing Rain, Water Mirage, Earth Maze. In short, When they can fully control their Elemental Energies then they are considered Elemental Master. Another example would be: A peak journeyman can cast 5 fireballs speedily and attack, But an Elemental master can Cast 15 fireballs even faster and attack.

But here comes the hard part, Stage 5.

-------------------------------------------

Stage 5: Elemental Mage

-To reach this stage, Elemental Masters needs to unlock the Psychic Realm which produces Psychic Energy, After that, They have to use this Psychic Energy to refine the Elemental Energy inside their Elemental Sea, Which will make the respective energy inside their body more powerful. For Example, An Elemental Master and An Elemental Mage consume the same amount of Fire Energy to cast a Fireball into a Pond AND the effect they would have on the pond would-be SIGNIFICANTLY different. Elemental Master\'s Fire will evaporate some Water and make sizzling sounds for some time BUT Elemental Mage\'s Fireball can evaporate the entire pond.

- Elemental Mages can start using Elemental Arts which needs refined energy and psychic energy.

- You can say that The Elemental Master\'s Fire Energy is Level 1 and the Elemental Mage\'s Fire Energy is Level 2, One is a Paper Chariot while the other is a Metal Chariot.
