Sorcerer: I want to be an Academic Prodigy-Chapter 702 - 659 Jenny Locke

Little Black Moustache Plane.

Originally, the plane contained only one Heng Ridge, one wasteland, with no greenery in sight and no creatures roaming about.

Now, the plane is filled with lush trees and fragrant grasses, blooming flowers competing in beauty, resembling a thriving garden. Scattered across the garden are well-arranged towers and pavilions, along with scurrying small beasts and birds in flight, presenting a scene brimming with vitality.

Of course, this is merely superficial.

In terms of resource richness, the Little Black Moustache Plane pales in comparison to Danaila, making it exceptionally barren. After all, it was once cruelly exploited by the Crimson Legion, stripped down to a fragile empty shell.

These past years, thanks to the adjustments made by the sorcerers, the Little Black Moustache Plane has somewhat recovered, but it is still far from being fully restored.

On this basis, apart from the occasional visits from high-ranking sorcerers for research, the Little Black Moustache Plane mainly serves as a base for the Black Star Corps, providing a resting place for its members.

"Boss, Jenny, I’m back."

"Welcome back."

On this day, Locke arrived on a high platform atop Heng Ridge in the Little Black Moustache Plane, following a lengthy void-space transmission, and met Ivan and Jenny, whom he hadn’t seen in years.

After many years, the trio was finally reunited.

To ensure Locke’s smooth return, Ivan had used some tricks, capturing a batch of spiritual body creatures from Danaila to artificially create a spiritual body gathering point.

With Locke’s own cooperation, he was able to use the pretext of official duties to arrive here, completing the reunion.

"This plane seems to have grown quite a bit."

Upon arriving, Locke couldn’t help but observe his surroundings. He immediately noticed the plane’s changes: its area has expanded more than tenfold, with numerous eye-catching sorcerer towers standing at the edges, and countless changes captivating his attention.

"Its essence hasn’t changed much, far inferior to ordinary small planes."

"It’s much better than before."

"This has one advantage—it’s easy to control and freely accessible. It’s perfect for serving as the base for the Black Star Corps. Enough about that, tell me more about your situation over there."

"Alright! ----- Here’s the situation. Once the nine Great Workshop Masters are gathered, the contest for the Master of Workshop Realm can be initiated. As for the specific way the contest will unfold, we don’t know yet. What do you think, boss? Do you want to give it a try?"

The three of them didn’t leave but started chatting right there on the empty platform, mostly between Ivan and Locke.

Locke briefly detailed the status of the Endless Spirit Workshop.

"It’s not about giving it a try; we must strive for it with everything we’ve got. Don’t tell me you lack the ambition for this."

Ivan naturally supported Locke in competing for the position of the Master of Workshop Realm. The Endless Spirit Workshop was a unique plane, one he would not underestimate just because it wasn’t a major plane.

Just the cross-galactic transmission capability of the Endless Spirit Workshop alone was unmatched, leaving other planes far behind.

"Heh, of course I want it. That’s the position where you can govern an entire plane."

Locke immediately revealed his true feelings upon hearing Ivan’s encouragement.

To join the Endless Spirit Workshop, he had completely severed ties with Danaila and fought his battles alone there. If he lacked the ambition for this, he would feel he had let himself down.

"Boss, I probably can’t manage it alone. I’ll need your help."

"No problem. I’ll try my best to support you."

"But won’t your efforts to condense the throne conflict in terms of time? Don’t let this disrupt your major plans."

"You’re the sixth Great Workshop Master of the Endless Spirit Workshop, right?"

"Yes."

"It may seem like a short time, but it actually took several decades. Gathering the seventh, eighth, and ninth Great Workshop Masters will take at least another hundred years, possibly even longer. There’s plenty of time."

Faced with Locke’s request for help, Ivan readily agreed.

As for Locke’s worries, Ivan dismissed them as trivial.

"Boss, I have a bold plan. I just don’t know if it will work. I want to use Three Create All Things to cultivate Martin and Dante into Great Workshop Masters. That way -----"

"Worth a try. After I condense the throne, I’ll further refine the Three Create All Things Secret Technique." freewebnøvel.com

Locke’s plan was indeed worth a try, but before implementing it, he would first need to train his two protectors into lords and figure out solutions from the Three Lives Create All Things Secret Technique.

Whether the plan would succeed depended on Ivan successfully condensing the throne and the circumstances that followed.

The two of them also discussed other aspects of the Endless Spirit Workshop, such as the Sin Extinguishing Giant Mill, the original Great Workshop Masters, the expanding momentum of the Endless Spirit Workshop, and the planes Locke had visited over the years.

"Jenny, why haven’t you said anything all this time? Don’t tell me someone bullied you. Who? Tell me, and this Great Workshop Master will punish them for you."

After a while, Locke noticed something wasn’t quite right and couldn’t help but tease.

Jenny gave him a sullen glance but still said nothing.

"Uh---- Did I guess right? Boss, what’s going on here? Don’t you all keep me in the dark. If there’s something, we’ll face it together." Locke’s heart sank; it was the first time he’d seen Jenny looking so despondent.

In his memory, Jenny had always been full of spirit, the kind of person who could make you grit your teeth.

"It’s all in the past now."

"Boss, just tell me. Don’t treat me like an outsider."

"It’s too long a story. Actually, this sorcerer is the one who got bullied."

Seeing things had reached this point, Ivan didn’t keep it hidden and offhandedly recounted the matter about venturing into the depths of the earth.

Locke then learned about the bitter experience shared by Ivan and Jenny.

"What Heart-Depth Lineage! Such arrogance, it’s downright oppressive!" He voiced indignantly.

"That lineage has at least one Supreme figure. Including Meg, at least five thrones belong to them. In the war to protect Danaila long ago, they earned illustrious achievements, so they indeed have reasons to be proud."
