“Ye Tian, you haven’t broken through in three years. I officially inform you that you’ve been expelled.”

At the entrance of Red Leaf Academy.

Ye Tian looked at the door as the dean’s words echoed in his mind.

He was holding a bag in his hand. When he turned around, his eyes were filled with confusion.

Three years ago, when he opened his eyes, he discovered that he had appeared in a completely unfamiliar world and happened to encounter the awakening ceremony.

After thinking for a moment, Ye Tian reacted.

He had transmigrated!

In a daze, the awakening was completed and Ye Tian became an Apprentice Mage at Red Leaf Academy.

However, Ye Tian’s talent wasn’t high and his aptitude was poor.

Three years had passed, and he was still an Apprentice Mage.

According to what he knew, there was a simple classification of mages’ strength in this world.

In order, they were Apprentice, Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, Great Mage, Magister, and Great Magister.

There were nine levels between each realm.

Ye Tian hadn’t slacked off in the past three years. However, his aptitude wasn’t enough. Everyone else had already broken through to become a Beginner Mage, but he had only cultivated to a three-star Apprentice Mage.

“Let’s go home first.”

Ye Tian sighed and left for Rock Town.

Red Leaf Academy was located in Kurtz City, and Rock Town was the next town in the city. It was more than a hundred kilometers away.

Every year, the mages in Kurtz City would go to a nearby town to hold a ceremony to find talented people and take them into the school as students.

Ye Tian spent some money on a caravan.

Five days later, he returned to Rock Town.

“Ye Tian?”

As soon as he got off the carriage, someone shouted.

However, the other party’s tone was a little hesitant, as if he did not dare to confirm.

Ye Tian looked over: “Uncle Harun, long time no see.”

A rough-looking man with a strong body smiled when he heard this.

“It’s really you. I was afraid that I had recognized the wrong person. Aren’t you studying magic in the academy? Why are you back?”

Ye Tian explained everything in detail.

The burly man in front of him was called Neet Harun. He was one of the captains of the town guards in Rock Town.

The original Ye Tian’s parents had a good relationship with Harun, but after the accidental death of his parents, Harun took good care of Ye Tian.

As expected, Harun didn’t show any signs of rejection or alienation. Instead, he patted Ye Tian’s shoulder and comforted him.

“It’s fine. Even if you can’t become a mage, you can still survive. I’ll send you home first.”

Harun let the team members move freely as he reached for Ye Tian’s luggage.

Ye Tian wanted to take it himself, but Harun’s arm was thicker and he couldn’t snatch it.

Along the way, Harun told Ye Tian about the changes in the town over the past three years and some interesting things that had happened.

For example, which family’s child got married and which one hunted a rare beast for a good price.

Ye Tian was actually not good with words. Seeing Uncle Harun’s enthusiasm, he could only smile and respond simply.

The original host’s home was in the northwest of the town. This was a place that belonged to the poor.

To put it simply, the people who lived here were not rich.

“I’ve been keeping an eye on the house for you. It’s just that the inside hasn’t been cleaned much, but you can still live there if you clean up yourself.”

Harun pushed open the door, and dust fell. He choked and coughed twice.

Ye Tian fanned the dust in front of him and followed him in. “Thank you, Uncle Harun.”

Harun smiled and said, “Don’t stand on ceremony with me. With my relationship with your parents, it’s only right for me to care for you.”

In truth, Ye Tian was relieved to see that the house was still there.

He was afraid that after three years, he would return to his hometown and find that the old residence was gone.

Now that he could live there just by cleaning, he could save a lot of rent in the future.

After Harun put down his things, he still wanted to help clean up.

This made Ye Tian very embarrassed.

After all, Uncle Harun had just put down his work and come over.

He quickly said, “Uncle, I can handle these small matters myself. Go ahead and do your work. It’s more important.”

As one of the captains, Harun had to lead a team to patrol the town every day to prevent some beasts or people from causing trouble.

Therefore, he had a lot of things to do every day.

Harun didn’t reject it. Before leaving, he asked Ye Tian to go to his house for dinner and left a new address.

Three years had passed, so Harun had also moved away.

After sending Uncle Harun off, Ye Tian looked around at the courtyard filled with weeds and the house that would crumble with a casual touch. He smiled wryly and got busy.

Ye Tian decided to buy some tools first. He couldn’t just use his hands to pull at the grass in the yard, it would be too cumbersome.

After a round of work, the sky gradually darkened.

The old residence had changed a lot since this morning. Although the house still looked a little dilapidated, it was much cleaner. At least, it was habitable.

“I’ll work on those areas tomorrow.”

Ye Tian patted his clothes and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

“Eh…?”

A look of surprise suddenly appeared on Ye Tian’s face, and his eyes widened as his body slowly began to turn.

At this moment, a strange piece of information appeared in his vision.

Name: Ye Tian

Title: Apprentice Mage

Level: Three-Star

Physique: 9 [Ordinary Adult: 10]

Magic Power: 30 [Ordinary Adult: 0]

Luck: 1

Comprehension: 1

Aptitude: Immortal Body (New)

Available Points: 0

…

Ye Tian rubbed his eyes and wondered hesitantly, “Am I hallucinating because I’m too tired?”

However, when he opened his eyes again, he realized that the interface was still there.

At this moment, a string of information appeared in his mind.

[You have an unlimited lifespan. Every month you survive, you will receive 0.1 attribute points. You can freely add them to your physique, magic power, luck, and comprehension.]

Golden finger? Cheat?

As a transmigrator, Ye Tian was quite knowledgeable and couldn’t help but grin.

He wanted to know more.

However, no matter how hard Ye Tian tried, the panel was like an inanimate object with no feedback.

“Looks like I’ll only know its use after I obtain the attribute points a month later.”

With a thought, Ye Tian hid the interface.

“Now that I have an unlimited lifespan, becoming stronger is only a matter of time.”

“I have to live carefully in the future. If I die, everything will be gone. What a waste of such a good opportunity.”

Ye Tian tidied up and closed the door to Uncle Harun’s house.

Neet Harun was a family of three. His daughter lived with his ex-wife in another city. He had divorced and found his current wife. The two of them had been living together for five years.

Mrs. Harun wasn’t surprised to see Ye Tian. Instead, she greeted him warmly.

At the dining table, Harun chatted about Ye Tian’s plans. Knowing that Ye Tian didn’t have any good ideas, he invited him to join the town’s guards.

Firstly, they only patrolled every day, so work was easy. Secondly, he could take care of Ye Tian on the job.

Ye Tian thought for a moment before agreeing.

…

A year later.

“As expected, as long as I add points, I can become stronger.”

Ye Tian added 1.2 attribute points to his physique and felt the change in his strength. He was extremely excited.

“Ye Tian, someone’s dead. Hurry up and catch up.”

At this moment, the guards came with a mission.
