Tangmu carefully studied the long-overdue system panel.
The Supreme Learning System, as its name suggested, was designed to help him learn and become a top-tier academic powerhouse.
Any behavior related to learning that resulted in tangible progress could earn Learning Credits, the core mechanism of the system.
These Learning Credits had multiple uses. The main functions were:
Hiring Private Teachers:
The first hour of tutoring each day was free.Every additional hour cost 6 Learning Credits.
Activating Transcendence Mode:
Dramatically boosted learning efficiency and thought-processing speed.Simulated a state similar to a "Minor Epiphany."Each activation cost 100 Credits, lasting 10 minutes.Could be extended at 10 Credits per additional minute.
In addition to Learning Credits, there was another major currency: Achievement Points.
Completing life goals, academic achievements, or system quests would earn Achievement Points.
As far as Tangmu could see, Achievement Points had one visible purpose—summoning a teacher. Depending on the teacher's level, the cost varied:
(B) Ordinary Adult Wizard – 1 point(A) Excellent Wizard – 10 points(S) Generation's Elite – 100 points(SS) Wizard of the Century – 1,000 points(SSS) Immortal Legend – 5,000 points
The prices alone made the gap between these tiers glaringly obvious.
In magical society, one generation spanned 30 years. To be called an Elite of the Generation meant being among the very best in that period.
A century covered three generations—to earn the title Wizard of the Century, one had to be unmatched across 100 years.
No doubt, Dengbuliduo deserved such a title.
As for Immortal Legends, time could barely measure their worth—such figures were nearly extinct in magical history.
Returning to the system panel, Tangmu saw a glowing gift box in the center—his newbie reward.
Opening it, the system awarded him 100 Learning Credits and one free teacher summoning, guaranteed to summon at least an S-Rank teacher or higher.
So, how exactly were these "private teachers" summoned?
Driven by curiosity, Tangmu mentally claimed all the rewards.
✨ A burst of golden brilliance filled his vision, dizzying, as if someone had shaken his brain violently. When he regained his senses, his consciousness had entered a fog-shrouded world.
This world felt so real that he thought he'd been transported there—but he could also perceive that his physical body remained in bed.
The system's voice echoed again.
This is your Learning Space. Time flows here as it does in the real world. However, any energy or fatigue expended in this space won't affect your real body.
In short, Tangmu could study here all night and wake up in the real world feeling fresh.
Moreover, this space could manifest teaching tools and any books he owned—a virtual realm nearly indistinguishable from reality.
There was a catch, though—entering this space consumed Learning Credits.
Since summoning a teacher enabled the "Guided Learning" function, the free 100 Credits wouldn't last long.
After grasping the basics of the space, Tangmu looked around for his first summoned teacher.
Suddenly—
"HAHAHAHAHAHA!"
A bold, hearty laugh echoed through the mist. The fog cleared, doubling his field of view instantly.
Through the haze, a tall silhouette strode toward him.
Out stepped a man.
He wore a toga from ancient Athens, draped over one shoulder, with most of his powerful muscles exposed. A laurel wreath rested on his brow, and his chiseled face resembled a marble statue—every inch radiating masculinity and nobility.
The man looked around the space with curiosity before resting his gaze on Tangmu.
His grin widened.
"So, you're the young wizard who summoned me?"
"What astounding talent. You actually awakened my long-dormant soul… and this contract! Kid, your fortune makes even me jealous."
Though his tone was cheerful, the jealousy in his words was unmistakable.
But Tangmu felt no threat.
The system guaranteed that no summoned being could harm him in this space, and each would share their knowledge without reservation, with zero risk of betrayal.
Besides, even without that guarantee, Tangmu sensed no ill intent from this man.
He radiated a pure, righteous aura—practically glowing with light. Compared to him, even Dengbuliduo might seem like a sly schemer.
"Sir, shouldn't you introduce yourself before asking questions?" Tangmu responded with a polite smile.
The system hadn't revealed the teacher's identity—leaving it as a surprise.
"Hahaha!"
The man laughed even more heartily.
"You're right! How rude of me, your personal instructor!"
"My name is Andeluosuo, just an ordinary wizard from ancient Greece. I specialize in wandless magic and the Patronus Charm. As your first mentor, I should be more than enough."
Tangmu's eyes flashed with recognition.
He recalled seeing the name Andeluosuo—back in Diagon Alley, Dengbuliduo had given him two Chocolate Frogs.
One of the collectible wizard cards featured this man—Andeluosuo the Invincible!
That wasn't boastful wordplay.
The nickname "Invincible" was bestowed by his contemporaries because Andeluosuo never lost a single duel in his life.
As he said, he had exceptional command over wandless magic and the Patronus Charm, even casting a giant-sized Patronus without a wand.
Even today, no one else had managed such a feat.
A true legend, unquestionably worthy of the title Wizard of the Century!
No wonder Tangmu had such a good impression of him at first glance.
After all, summoning a Patronus required pure, powerful emotions and happy memories—a spell often used to gauge whether someone leaned toward the dark side.
Andeluosuo practically overflowed with positive energy. He was righteousness incarnate!
"Mr. And orientalsuo, I'm Tangmu Lideer."
Tangmu greeted him with a bright smile.
"From today,—" I'm your student. If I make any mistakes, feel free to correct me—I'll take your teachings to heart."
His respectful attitude won Andeluosuo's favor immediately.
The man thumped his chest with a loud boom-boom.
"Well said! I'll do everything in my power to help you become a remarkable wizard."
Shifting into teacher mode, he asked seriously:
"You must've paid a cost to summon this gift, right? No time to waste—let's begin!"
Tangmu had no objection. He thought about Hogwarts' introductory curriculum.
"Mr. Andeluosuo, I haven't started at the magic school yet. Why don't we begin with the basics—like Lumos and Wingardium Leviosa?"
Andeluosuo gave him a puzzled look.
"Lumos? Wingardium Leviosa? What are those?"
Tangmu: "???"
