The quality of the insignias that Chen Heng had made were decent, and magic items were quite expensive among Sorcerers.

Let alone ordinary Apprentices, even some Sorcerer families passed down some ordinary magic items as heirlooms.

The things that Chen Heng had created could become some small families' legacies.

As such, after people realized what they were, they became hotly contested items and were quickly sold out.

This took only half a day, and Chen Heng's assets greatly increased.

His starting price was not very high, only around 20 magic stones. However, after seeing how popular they were, he raised the price to 30 magic stones.

But, the supply still could not meet the demand.

After leaving the marketplace, his assets had increased by 200 or so magic stones.

This was enough to buy many good things.

In the future, Chen Heng could buy better quality materials for his experiments.

Moreover, this meant that he was able to invest in himself more.

Now, he could choose many classes that he had not been able to afford in the past.

This was a very good development.

Of course, what was the most important thing to Chen Heng right now was his reputation.

After today, his title of genius would become even more renowned and spread even more.

This was undoubtedly very beneficial to his future.

Just as expected, this was exactly what had happened.

Many students heard about Chen Heng's existence and knew that such a genius existed. When he was just a First Rank Apprentice, he had created such high-quality magic items.

Of course, this was not Chen Heng's greatest gain.

Early the next day, Chen Heng stood by himself in a dark region.

In front of him was an experiment table on which there were many pieces of equipment; most of them were things that were very difficult to obtain.

Right now, Chen Heng was using many of these things with great familiarity and proficiency.

"Incredible, incredible."

By the side, watching Chen Heng's actions, a middle-aged Sorcerer could not help but speak.

"Indeed."

Beside the middle-aged Sorcerer, a beautiful-looking female Sorcerer in a red robe also sighed and said, "Charlie, what were you doing at that age?"

Standing there, the middle-aged Sorcerer gave a bitter smile, "Me? I was still doing my best with Meditation and was not even a First Rank Apprentice."

"This child's talent is simply monstrous," the red-robed female Sorcerer sighed and said.

If the academy's Third Rank Apprentices were here, they would feel completely shocked given these two people's identities.

The middle-aged Sorcerer was called Charlie and he was the most outstanding magic tool teacher, and he was a powerful true Sorcerer.

At the same time, he was the only existence in the academy who could create magic tools.

The red-robed female Sorcerer was called Ariel and was also a true Sorcerer. Apart from this, she was also the Hunter's House's Vice Principal.

Apart from the Principal who often went out on trips, she was the highest authority in the academy.

Right now, these two had both come out of their laboratories to meet with Chen Heng.

This showed just how seriously they took Chen Heng.

"I'm done."

Chen Heng turned and showed them the insignia in his hand.

The insignia in his hand did not look much different from the ones sold outside. However, after watching Chen Heng's process of creating the insignia, Charlie and Ariel's expressions became completely different.

"What an outstanding genius."

Looking at Chen Heng, Ariel lightly sighed and said, "I've never seen someone create a magic item at such a young age, much less someone with as much talent as him. What about you, Charlie?"

"It's the same for me," Charlie shook his head as he thought back to Chen Heng's actions.

Even as a master of refining magic tools, he was still greatly shaken by Chen Heng's actions.

He had never thought that magic items could be created like this.

Standing there and looking at Charlie and Ariel's reactions, Chen Heng's expression did not change, but he inwardly felt quite startled.

He had purposefully sold the magic items he had made to make some money, as well as spread his name.

However, the effects had been even better than he had expected.

In just a short period of time, not only had all students heard about him, but even the true Sorcerers had taken notice of him and asked him to do a demonstration.

Chen Heng was not afraid to do this.

After all, he was using this world's techniques. Even though there were some differences, it was still within the range of normality.

As such, he was not afraid of other people watching him.

He was not too worried about his techniques being stolen because these two people were not only Sorcerers but one was the Vice Principal and the other was a master in refining magic tools.

To them, Chen Heng's techniques for refining magic items were not that amazing.

After all, ordinary magic items were not that useful to true Sorcerers; they would only be interested in magic tools.

Charlie asked seriously as he looked at Chen Heng, "How did you think of this? Using a method like this to engrave the magic skill framework on the material is very different from the ordinary method."

In the laboratory, he asked Chen Heng many crucial questions, and Chen Heng easily answered all of them.

After hearing these answers, Charlie could not help but sigh, "Your talent in runes and magic tool creation is simply shocking."

From how he saw it, even though the knowledge that Chen Heng grasped was still somewhat shallow, he had completely grasped it.

Compared to ordinary students, who would just remember the knowledge, Chen Heng not only gained complete understanding of it but also had great insight and deeper thinking.

This kind of talent was very impressive.

Even someone like Charlie could not help but feel amazed.

He now felt quite delighted—this was a true genius, and he was extremely talented in the study of magic tools.

Chen Heng would work quite well with him.

As such, he looked at Chen Heng and asked seriously, "Are you willing to become my student?"

Hearing this, Chen Heng felt quite surprised.

His gains this time were much bigger than he had expected.

He had never thought that what he had done would be enough for a Sorcerer to want to make him their disciple.

A delighted and resolute expression appeared on his face, "I'm willing. Mister Charlie is the best magic tool refiner in the academy; it would be my honor to be taught by you."

Looking at Chen Heng and hearing these words, Charlie and Ariel both laughed.

Charlie nodded, "Very good. Come to my laboratory tomorrow. As for today, you've worked hard so you must be tired; go and have a good rest."

"Yes," Chen Heng lowered his head and gave a slight bow.

Following this, he left this laboratory.

After Chen Heng left, Charlie looked at Ariel, "What do you think?"

"This is perfect," Ariel said as she smiled, "You have not taken any students for many years, and now everything has lined up. With your achievements in magic tool creation, I don't have to worry about you ruining a genius like this."

"Hopefully."

Hearing Ariel's words, Charlie gave a wry smile but also looked quite excited.

Elsewhere, Chen Heng thought to himself after leaving the laboratory.

"Studying under a true Sorcerer?"

In front of Ariel and Charlie, Chen Heng had acted very carefully.

Because of the massive difference in strength, high-level Sorcerers could often tell what low-level Sorcerers were thinking from their mental energy ripples.

In fact, if they wanted to, they could even damage someone else's mind to an extent and gain their memories.

As such, Chen Heng had been very careful just then, and he had done his best to suppress his mental ripples.

Fortunately, nothing bad had happened.

Becoming Charlie's student was something that Chen Heng had not expected, but this was good.

Charlie was the only Sorcerer who was adept in refining magic tools.

To be able to become his student would be very beneficial to him.

On one hand, he could come into contact with even more knowledge from this world, especially in the area of magic tools.

Even though there were many students in the magic tools class, those classes' content was quite generic.

As such, Chen Heng had concluded that if he wanted to obtain a true Sorcerer's legacy and knowledge, he would have to become the direct student of a true Sorcerer.

Moreover, compared to other Sorcerers, Sorcerer Charlie did not seem very ordinary.

Perhaps it was because his main focus was magic tools, which made it so that he was not as tainted by negative energy.

The teachers tainted by negative energy were like Griffin and were incredibly savage and cruel, and their minds all had issues.

If he became the student of a teacher like that, Chen Heng would feel quite worried; perhaps one day when he woke up, he would be the one on the experiment table.

This was something that had really happened to people before.

In the past, with the permission from the academy, many Sorcerers had used their students to do experiments.

Even for the Sorcerers who had claimed that their students had given consent, the outcome was usually quite terrifying.

Most of those students had died grisly deaths.

Moreover, those teachers had only been reprimanded and fined some magic stones; such a punishment was not a big deal to a true Sorcerer.

This showed the laws of the Sorcerer World.

Facing higher-level Sorcerers, lower-level Sorcerers could not do anything.

Chen Heng understood this, so he had hoped that his future teacher would not be a dangerous person; otherwise, things could become quite troublesome.

As such, this was quite good.

Charlie was one of the top-tier Sorcerers in the academy. Even though there were some problems with his personality, at least he was not as bad as the Sorcerers tainted by negative energy.

During this period of time, Chen Heng's main focus had been his classes in order to gain as much knowledge as possible.

Even though his progress in Meditation was quite good, it was not as great as he had expected.

Right now, he had greatly increased his magic power, and he was nearly at five ku.

He was still quite far away from becoming a Second Rank Apprentice.

"Looks like it's time to focus more on Meditation," Chen Heng thought to himself.

By now, he had gained a lot of foundational knowledge.

After those things, Chen Heng had become very famous in the academy. Even if he did not do anything, that would persist for a while.

He had also been taken by Charlie as a student and could use his power to do some things that he wanted.

This included refining magic tools and collecting materials. As a Sorcerer who specialized in this, Charlie most likely had many channels, so Chen Heng would not have to worry about it.

In the following days, Chen Heng's life became peaceful again.

Charlie taking Chen Heng as a student caused many students to discuss among themselves. Many of the students who had entered the academy at the same time as Chen Heng felt quite complicated.

After all, it had only been a few months since they had entered the academy.

During those months, most people were working hard in Meditation to start to condense magic power.

On the other hand, Chen Heng had become a First Rank Apprentice, created magic items, and become the student of a true Sorcerer.

The gap between them was simply too great.

After becoming Charlie's student, Chen Heng did not do much.

He went to classes as usual, taught his supplementary lessons, and made magic items to sell.

Because Chen Heng's grades and teaching skills were quite good, many students came.

His lessons on runes were so good that even some Third Rank Apprentice would secretly come and listen.

Soon, two years had passed.

Early in the morning, sunlight shined on the ground outside.

Within a tall Sorcerer tower, Chen Heng got up very early and was busying about in a laboratory.

His expression was serious as his hands continuously moved about.

An item was slowly being constructed and taking shape.

"Not bad."

By the side, Charlie was standing there, and as he watched Chen Heng's actions, he said in praise, "What great aptitude.

"I never thought you would improve Minor Barrier and engrave it on this material. Incredible, incredible."

"Teacher, you're here."

Hearing Charlie's voice, Chen Heng smiled, "Minor Barrier's protective power is not bad, but the framework is not stable enough and is difficult to engrave on materials.

"As such, I did not modify it in terms of strength but in terms of stability so that this magic skill can be engraved on this insignia."

"Even so, that is remarkable," Charlie said as he smiled and waved his hand, "Ed, has anyone told you that your biggest flaw is being too humble?"
