Books on top of Books

Wan Fang opened the book and was instantly shocked, the book had information dating back to the ancient era, a time where powerful mages destroyed mountains and powerful knights created valleys.

It was very different to the current era as now there are laws and it isn't a wild wasteland, "I kill you or you kill me" situation, although there are many accidents that have happened during the transition from the Ancient Era to the Current Era.

The book summarized "Ancient Constitutions are the heaven granted gift to allow a person to cultivate both as a knight and a mage, normal people with regular physiques or spiritual roots cannot match the might of an Ancient Consitution, but there are some Ancient Constitutions that are more powerful than the rest, these are the God Dragon Constitutions. Each constitution has a different element of fire, water, air, earth, spatial, mind, darkness, and light. The God Dragon Constitution is the descendant of the ancient 8 God Dragon Constitution which has all 8 elements and even more power. The only person who has received such a heaven-defying constitution is the most powerful being of the Ancient Era, The Pangu. After Pangu no one else has received the Constitution. Before the 8 God Dragons, no one can raise their head and even god must show respect. Most other Ancient Constitutions are better documented in this book than the God Dragon Constitution due to the fact that they are so rare."

Wan Fang was shocked, Pangu had this constitution? He never thought that the most revered being of earth and him would share the same power, could he reach the same height as him. Wan Fang then thought "Could the old man be... Pangu...?"

Wan Fang shook his head, how that old geezer is the legendary Pangu, and why would he be stuck in his body.

Wan Fang then used his mind element and a copy of the textbook appeared in his dimension, this is one of the abilities he has, using his mind element eyes he can copy the information and using the spatial eyes he can store it in the special lands. He then started reading it in his mind as his body kept walking towards class.

Wan Fang didn't even notice and walked into the doorway into his classroom, he had been so encapsulated into the book that he didn't notice it. He brushed his bottom and walked into the class, his classmates looked at Wan Fang weirdly as they wondered what the thud on the door was.

The teacher continued "Like I was saying, mages can cast spells by spreading mana into their hands and chanting the spell. There are certain completion levels for a spell. The slow chant level, the fast chant level, the short chant method, and the instant chant method. Each level shows how proficient you are at the spell, slow chant means you have to say each word one by one in a slow fashion, fast chant means you can say the chant in a fast manner, short chant means you can shorten the chant to a few words instead of a long phrase, and instant chant mean you can create a mental image of the spell and cast it, now..."

"Ding...Ding...Ding" the bell interrupted Teacher Su Lin and he speedily said "There are simple spells that I want you to start before next class, also don't forget to cultivate a little"

Everyone filled out of Wind Element class and went to their next classes. Wan Fang's class order was Wind Mage class, History and Geography class, Literature Class, Math Class, Science Class, and Music Class. In all his classes people looked at him weirdly due to his white hair and weird eyes.

Wan Fang was bored throughout the whole day, he kept copying the books into his special land and instantly memorized the books, meaning he would easily pass the entire year with ease.

He reached his last period class, Music Class. Wan Fang found 20 other students in the class and sat down in a random seat. Wan Fang didn't know what other class to pick as a mage secondary and picked music class since he liked music.

After 2 minutes, a 20-year-old lady walked up to the podium. She spoke "My name is Qiu Jie and I am your music teacher, today we will be the day we picking which instrument you want to play, now music here isn't like the pop music in the real world, here we play to invoke feelings into the audience. Mages can use their mana to enchant their instrument and make it more involved and create a world through only sounds. Now everyone, form a line and we will test which instrument you have an affinity with."

Wan Fang was last in the line, people picked all sorts of instruments violin, viola, cello, bass, harp, piano, flute, etc.

Wan Fang up to the instruments and Qiu Jie touched her hand on his shoulders and instructed: "Let me guide my mana into you and use direct your hand over the instruments, if you feel a strong pulse, it will be the instrument you will play."

Her mana, which was like a smooth melody flowed through his body and went out his hands, he moved his hand across all the instruments until he felt a pulse of warmth it was a small bamboo in the corner of the insturments, Wan Fang went to pick it up and was confused, he didn't know what it was.

Qiu Jie smilled and explained, "Intersting this instrument is the Chinese Bamboo Flute called the Dizi, it has a smooth melodic tone, I've never had anyone pick the Dizi but I've learned a little about it from a musician master."

Qiu Jie then spoke to everyone "I will now give you, the respective books for beginner practice so right now we will start learning about how to read music..."

Everyone received a textbook on music theory and everyone received books for their respective instruments. Everyone except for Wan Fang got a brand new book, his book had lots of wrinkles and stains and he frowned "Why is my book so old?" Wan Fang opened the book and found a whole world of music since he memorized the music theory textbook he knew how to read the music.

He looked up and paid attention to Teacher Qiu Jie's final announcements "Okay everyone has to memorize pages 1-10 in the music theory textbook and try out your instruments if you can learn to play the 1st song in your books by next Monday you will receive a prize."

The bell rang and everyone left class, the day was finally over and Wan Fang went to his dorm room. When he walked into the room he threw his bag of textbooks on the floor and laid on his bed. A few minutes after Lu Hu with a pile of textbooks in his hands through the textbooks on the floor and collapsed.

He then shouted "BOOKS ON TOP OF BOOKS WHY IS THERE SO MUCH HOMEWORK!!!'

Wan Fang chuckled and said, "Why didn't you bring your bag, it is on your bed."

Lu Hu cried "I forgot it when we rushed to our classes so I had to carry it all in my hand, I was so embarrassed."

Wan Fang then looked at the pile of textbooks and saw the books, "Martial Arts Foundation" and "Knight Training Guide". Wan Fang was interested and asked, "Are these your textbooks for Knight class?"

Lu Hu at that point climbed onto his bed and said: "Yea, knight class is the only interesting class at this academy."

Wan Fang walked over to the textbooks and copied them. He faked skimming through the pages and threw them back on the floor.

Now, with all the textbooks memorized, Wan Fang could literally pass every year 1 class at the academy.
