Chapter 705: 705

After being left in the magical liquid for less than five minutes, the four younglings were carried out and dumped into a clear water pool to wash away the excess magical liquid on their bodies .

One of the four younglings’ dragon skin had peeled away from the magical liquid bath . Its armpits, belly, and neck showed purplish marks where they were corroded .

There was one of them whose eyes were also dyed slightly purplish .

The benefit this corrosion brought to the two younglings was that their arcane talents were now far greater than what they had been . They were almost at the peak which dragons of their age could reach .

After washing away the excess magical liquid, they rolled about in crystalline sand to toughen up their hide and quicken its hardening .

The crystalline sand was specially made . The toughness and frictional force it would supply were calculated by the seven-colored dragons . There was no room for error .

Lu Sheng followed the required steps . He rolled about just like the other younglings and started to take his meal .

There was a cavern set aside for meals . Some live game was placed there .

There were stags, wild boars, wild wolves, and other animals, and all were tainted by concentrated magic power .

The four younglings were given the freedom to hunt their prey .

Lu Sheng familiarized himself with the youngling’s body . He quickly caught his first victim, a strong wild boar . He slashed the wild boar’s throat . The wild boar continued to struggle for a dozen minutes before all blood drained from its body, and it lay there, motionless .

The other three younglings were slightly slower, but all of them managed to catch their prey .

Then, the dragon queen herself taught them how to process their prey and finally partake in the meal .

The seven-colored dragons would only eat cooked meals . Most of their food items were similar to humans’ . However, the amount they consumed was too much for them to actually have a refined process of food preparation .

The preferred cooking method was roasting the entire animal over elemental flames . Then, they would sprinkle herbs and salt over the food while it was roasting .

This sounded delicious, but the seven-colored dragons did not remove the internal organs . They ate the entire animal as was .

The days passed by .

Under the guidance of the dragon queen, the four younglings were gradually able to hunt, eat, defecate, and take care of themselves .

They could live independently if they had to .

“Alright, gather around, everyone . ” Keboye summoned the three younglings who were playing . Then, he called Lu Sheng who was studying the gemstones and antiques at the side .

The four young dragons gathered around him and sat in a row as they looked at Keboye .

“As the teacher of the arcane arts for the dragons, from this day on, I, Keboye, shall instruct all of you in the basics of arcane arts . Also, I’ll be your teacher for the study of the world . ”

“Study of the world?”

“Yes, study of the world . ” Although Keboye was the meanest male dragon of the Seven-colored Dragon Tribe, there was no doubt that he was the most knowledgeable among them . He gained all this in exchange for the countless scars on his body and a crippled foot .

They were his most precious wealth .

“I’ll tell you more about the detailed structure of this world . Although this might result in more puzzlement about the unknown on your part, I won’t be responsible for answering every single one of your questions,” said Keboye sternly .

“Will you be teaching based on your own experiences?” asked one of the young dragons in a high-pitched voice .

“Of course . From the moment I speak, nothing I say will be a lie!” Keboye glared at that young dragon fiercely .

“Well then, we shall begin . First off, I’ll talk about the structure of the entire world,” Keboye began loudly .

“The world we live in is called the main material plane . Surrounding this main material plane are countless planar worlds . These worlds come in various sizes . The largest of them all are the representative Heavenly Realm, Abyss, Hell, and the Elemental Sea .

“The Heavenly Realm is where the beings and gods of the heavens dwell . The Abyss is where the devils and devil lords dwell . Hell is where the demons dwell . ”

“What about the Elemental Sea?” Lu Sheng asked as he raised his hand . Beside their pair of colorful cicada wings, the seven-colored dragons had arms and legs as well . Hence, they could also handle menial tasks with their hands, just like the humans .

“The Elemental Sea is where countless elemental planes gather . It’s also the favorite place of the art users . It’s a place filled with countless elemental energy and mysterious, unknown beings . The more popular realm is the Four Great Elements Realm . ” Keboye gave a simple introduction .

“Understood . ” Lu Sheng nodded .

“If there are no more questions, I’ll go into the formal explanation of the basic construct of the Heavenly Realm…”

Five years passed by in the blink of an eye .

In the central regions of the continent, deep within White Jersey Mountains, where the seven-colored dragons lived in seclusion .

The four young dragons had already grown to a height of about two meters . They had sat through various classes, and had gained ample understanding of the fundamental knowledge to survive .

At the same time, throughout the past five years, Keboye had taught them the basics of elemental refining .

Mastering elemental magic was a basic skill that every seven-colored dragon had to have .

The seven-colored dragons were not particularly gifted in physical combat . What they relied on to fight was their extremely high affinities with the elements and their arcane talents .

After five years of various basic classes, the four young dragons’ bodies finally reached the stage where they started to experiment with elemental energy .

“Elemental Art is the generic term for the control over all kinds of elemental energy . The Wargod Church previously came up with a set of professional ranking standards . Although the standards were not passed on, ranked evaluations which mimicked this system have been developed . ” Keboye looked on as the four young dragons started their attempts to manipulate the clay, which was mixed with various elements, before them .

This was one of his most important classes . After this, the number of classes would decrease drastically, and these young dragons would have to fend for themselves .

The seven-colored dragons had a huge store of books and enchanted items which should be enough for them to explore and experiment on their own .

One of the young dragons raised a hand, and asked, “So, what’s the use of this ranking to us?”

“Well, the other Tribes[1 . You can probably safely think of them as ‘races’ instead . ] categorized the Dragon Tribe into several job ranks . For example, you guys are young dragons among the Seven-colored Dragon Tribe, so your ranks wouldn’t exceed 5, but it won’t be lower than 2, either . Simply put, you can compare yourselves to a Warrior . Your current hunting and combat abilities are on par with a rank-5 Warrior’s at most, but is equivalent to a rank-2 Warrior’s at least,” Keboye explained . “In other words, you’re between a rank-5 and a rank-2 . You shouldn’t underestimate a Warrior . After becoming a rank-2 Warrior, humans would possess powerful constitution which surpasses that of normal human beings . They can’t be regarded as mere mortals anymore . ”

Keboye spoke frankly with assurance . He began with the basics, and slowly explained the more complex aspects of the different job ranks to the four young dragons .

After finishing about that, he went on to talk about the arcane arts .

Arcane arts were also categorized into several ranks, just like the Warrior-class . The art users were evaluated based on the rank of the art .

According to Keboye, the art users were also divided into various schools . The Elemental School was only one of them . They mastered the destructive power of the elemental energy . They were known as the evocation school .

There were also the necromancy, enchantment, summoning, and divinations schools .

The most important aspect was that using an art required them to consume their surface mental energy . The surface mental energy of a being was always constant .

Although the spent surface mind power would be automatically replenished every day, the spell stored within the mind power would be completely forgotten after the art was unleashed .

Hence, the user would have to memorize the art again .

The other young dragons might not have noticed anything, but Lu Sheng found this aspect extremely familiar .

These rules reminded Lu Sheng of a certain rule in a school of Western magic back on Earth .

What surprised him more was that the more Keboye explained, the more it resembled the art-related rules in his memory .

This was especially true regarding the fixed number of arts a user could unleash every day . The arts were activated by connecting the magic webs and subsequently unleashed .

That made an impression on him .

After Keboye’s class ended, he swiftly organized the information he obtained and pestered Keboye . He wanted Keboye to tell him everything he knew about the arts .

Soon enough, Lu Sheng gained more understanding from Keboye .

The ranks of an art user depended on the ranks of their arts and their quotas .

Young dragons such as himself who had gone through five years of elemental refining basically met the most fundamental requirements for unleashing the arts .

They could now accomplish basic elemental manipulation .

The seven-colored dragons’ outstanding elemental talents enabled them to weave the four elements into various special forms and play around with them in their palms .

Unfortunately, Keboye did not teach them about any Elemental Art . Instead, he gave them the freedom to look it up in the Library Cave and learn on their own .

After obtaining permission, the four young dragons charged into the Library Cave and picked the books of their liking to read .

There were not many options for entertainment in this world . They had been longing to get their hands on the books in the Library Cave for a long time now . The only thing that had been stopping them was their fear of the elders . Now that they had been granted permission, they were like fish put in water . They were reluctant to leave the cave as they buried themselves deep among the books .

Lu Sheng was the same . At the first opportunity he got, he located the learning materials on the arts from rank-1 to rank-9 .

Although they’d been originally compiled by the humans, the seven-colored dragons had edited the contents, and they were now used as one of their basic teaching materials .

After obtaining the learning materials, Lu Sheng buried himself beneath the world of various arts and could not stop himself .

The other young dragons could still maintain their drive to learn when they just started off with fresh minds .

However, as the days went by and they were granted permission to go out, the three young dragons rejoiced as they charged out of the dragon cave . They frolicked in the periphery with wild abandon .

They were starting to forget the things they had learnt, let alone achieving progress in them .

The dragon queen did not stop them, even though she saw how they were doing .

The enjoyment of youth was also a crucial part for the young dragons to develop healthy bodies and minds .

Instead, she and the other dragon teachers were worried about Lu Sheng, who spent his waking hours devouring the books . They were worried that Lu Sheng’s self-isolation would result in unwanted influences or regrets in his future .

Hence, they frequently implored Lu Sheng to go out and play with the other young dragons .

However, Lu Sheng turned them down sternly .

Under normal circumstances, a seven-colored dragon would naturally form an organ in their body which controlled the evocation class art, fireball, at the age of 10 .

When they were 50 years old, they would be able to control the fire element lower than rank-5 naturally . At the same time, they would be able to easily master the other Elemental Arts below rank-3 .

This was the seven-colored dragons’ talent . They were born Elemental Grandmasters . They were born with the ability to unleash arts of rank-3 and above . They did not have to learn this . All they had to do was to grow up normally .

However, Lu Sheng was not content with that .
