In three years, Noah had officially transitioned from a young child to an adult.

Thinking back to when he began learning magic at the age of eleven, Noah felt like he was aging rapidly over the past seven years.

Seven years ago, the confused and somewhat scared little boy was swept away by an owl to Hogwarts, where his journey with magic began.

Now, Noah could be considered a very powerful magician. Sometimes he wondered what his life would have been like if that owl had never come to him.

After some thought, Noah felt that his path might have been similar to his previous life.

For instance, he probably would have studied hard in junior high, then entered high school, continued to study, and eventually aimed for a university degree, perhaps pursuing a graduate school later.

As for after graduation, he might have found a way into S.H.I.E.L.D. or tried his luck at Stark Industries.

Of course, this was just a thought. In his previous life, Noah had been a liberal arts student, so memorizing books wouldn't have been an issue for him.

If he were to get involved in scientific research, though, he might accidentally blow up the entire lab.

Perhaps he would end up doing clerical work at one of those organizations instead.

After spending so many years in Kamar-Taj, Noah had grown accustomed to life there.

He kept in touch with his friends at Hogwarts, strengthening those emotional connections whenever he had the time. The rest of his time was spent studying and training in Kamar-Taj.

Noah didn't find life at Kamar-Taj boring, with Wang and Mordo accompanying him every day.

In terms of daily life, Noah and Ms. Heifen had grown close, with her looking after him, despite Noah often insisting that he was old enough to take care of himself.

After all these years of learning magic, Ms. Heifen had become quite skilled. Although her level at Kamar-Taj was still relatively low, she was no longer at the bottom; she had reached the rank of a third-level magician!

While the third level wasn't considered very high, considering that Ms. Heifen wasn't initially someone suited for magic, her progression to a third-level magician was an impressive feat.

Both Master Ancient One and Ms. Heifen were pleased with her progress, and it was clear that Ms. Heifen's potential had yet to be fully tapped.

In fact, after acquiring the ability to meditate, the concept of potential seemed less relevant.

Potential only determined the height of the ceiling, but in the magical world, very few people reached that ceiling.

Moreover, no one could really predict where their personal ceiling was.

This was where meditation became essential. Hard work, combined with meditation, played a crucial role in reaching one's potential.

"Does this count as subverting the theory of bloodlines?" Noah pondered, though something about it felt off.

If the bloodline theory was ineffective, how could it have been so prominent for nearly a thousand years?

Although Noah seemed to have disproven the theory, he wasn't sure about the limits of meditation.

One thing was certain, though: relying solely on bloodlines without effort was futile.

With Ms. Heifen's example in mind, Noah considered the possibility of applying this approach to others in the future, even if just to assemble a good team.

Noah Finniel

Age: 18

Mage level: Level 6, Level 5

Over the past three years, Noah's strength had improved slightly, but he could no longer maintain the rapid pace of progression from one or two levels per year.

Magic worked this way—progress slowed down the higher one went.

At eighteen, Noah had already reached a promising level, with his sixth level marking the limit of an intermediate magician. Anything beyond this was considered advanced magic.

Noah felt that reaching this level at such a young age was only natural.

After all, in addition to his regular practice, Noah spent significant time in the system space.

The system space allowed him six hours of practice for every one hour in the real world!

With so much extra time, Noah could do much more than he would otherwise—whether it was reading or meditating.

He didn't mind practicing magic as much as physical exercise, so his progress had been rapid.

"Your talent is truly remarkable, Noah," Master Ancient One commented, impressed by Noah's progress.

"It's nothing special. I've been working hard," Noah smiled nonchalantly. And indeed, he had.

"By the way, Noah, the exam is coming up. Do you have any thoughts on it?" she asked.

"Thoughts? Not really. I'll just go with the flow," Noah replied casually.

He wasn't concerned about this exam. After all, it wasn't for him.

This exam was for the students from magic schools who were coming to study at the university in Kamar-Taj.

Coincidentally, this was also the graduation year for Noah and his class.

It might have been intentional on Master Ancient One's part, but Kamar-Taj had officially announced the completion of their university this year.

The announcement created a huge stir in the magical world, especially among those students nearing graduation from various magic academies.

In addition to the university's establishment, the Kamar-Taj Magic Award was also set to begin its assessments and awards this year.

After several years of adjustments, the Ministries of Magic worldwide had stabilized, ensuring that the plan would not fail.

Magicians with great ideas from all over the world had registered with their local Ministries of Magic for review.

The process had started with conceptual submissions, which had been reviewed and narrowed down to those with the highest chances of winning.

These submissions ranged from magic tools that could regulate temperature to magic arrays designed to accelerate growth. They were varied and practical, making it difficult for the magicians at Kamar-Taj to select the best ones.

Of course, they only saw conceptual drawings, as magicians typically didn't reveal their actual magical works until they were present to demonstrate them.

Magicians, after all, were excellent at self-protection.

This made the selection process complicated, but it wasn't something Noah needed to concern himself with.

"I've heard that many of your classmates are preparing for the exam. Aren't you worried about it?" Master Ancient One asked, curious.

"I'm worried, but I won't help them," Noah shrugged. "The exam tests knowledge that's practical in combat. The most important factor is mindset. That's the key."

Indeed, the competition wasn't the most important aspect.

Kamar-Taj was confident in itself!

Ms. Heifen's growth from an ordinary person to a third-level magician proved this, and Master Ancient One was confident about facing those students who weren't initially very promising.

The most critical part of the exam was the mentality test.

It could be said that as long as a student performed well in the mentality test, even poor results in the written test wouldn't disqualify them. However, if a student performed exceptionally in the written test but lacked a strong mindset…

Then sorry, the gap between them and Kamar-Taj University would become immeasurable.

Noah believed that character was just as important as knowledge. He remembered watching The Legend of the Condor Heroes when he was a child.

Aside from his attempts to impress women, Guo Daxia was often quite foolish, but he had a pure heart, and his good fortune made him a great hero, praised by future generations.

On the other hand, his friend Yang Kang, despite his natural talent, was ultimately doomed because of his poor character.

The choice was clear. Noah thought the students' grades didn't matter much. As long as they weren't like Voldemort, Meditation could turn almost anyone into a magician in Kamar-Taj.

"Well, I thought you'd be worried," Master Ancient One tilted her head thoughtfully before suddenly smiling. "I wonder... would you be interested in being their teacher?"

"Ahem!"

Noah nearly choked on his words, his throat itching even though he hadn't had anything to drink.

After regaining his composure, he pointed at himself, "Are you talking about me?"

"Of course. Why not?" Master Ancient One nodded as if it were a simple matter.

"No, don't joke! How old am I?" Noah shook his head decisively. He wasn't interested in teaching students around his own age.

"Noah, you must understand, even though there are many magicians in Kamar-Taj, excluding the ones who guard the temple, there are still plenty. But we decided that each magician would mentor three students. Isn't this your idea? So, isn't it normal for you to participate?"

"But being a teacher? Isn't that too much for me? I'm not old enough!" Noah protested.

"Age isn't the most important thing. Your ability is what matters. Don't you recognize your own strength, Noah?" Master Ancient One smiled knowingly.

Noah rubbed his head in frustration. Was he really supposed to recognize his own strength?

Well, he couldn't exactly deny it now, could he?

As a magician, a lack of confidence was deadly—especially for Noah, who never showed doubt in his abilities.

"Does this count as another self-defeating situation?" Noah muttered to himself.
