As time passed, Shufeng grew up gradually, and Gu Shi finally had his first breakthrough of the year.
It had been nearly a year since Gu Shi advanced to the fifth level, and only then did he have a premonition of a breakthrough.
But it's also true that Gu Shi has focused his main energy on studying magic over the past year, and he hasn't been particularly diligent in meditation. If it weren't for the monthly fruit to help him, he might have to wait until the holidays to make any progress.
Although in Gu Shi's opinion, breaking through one small level in a year is a relatively slow progress, but when put into the entire group of fifth-level mages, it is already a speed that only the first echelon can achieve.
In order to seize this premonition of breakthrough and advance to the fifth-level intermediate level, Gu Shi took a full month off.
Unlike his previous breakthroughs that came naturally, this time Gu Shi only felt the sign of a breakthrough, which was still a long way from the real breakthrough.
He needed some time to think things over, so he took such a long leave.
The college naturally would not hold on to Gu Shi's very reasonable reason for asking for leave, and easily approved his leave, but only required him to complete the content of the courses on his own later.
Gu Shi bought another batch of photo stones and asked Wendel for help.
After finishing all the necessary preparations, Gu Shi was just thinking about going into the meditation room to practice well when Shu Feng came over with a pitiful look on his face.
Gu Shi had no choice. Meditation was not something that could be disturbed, so he could not bring Shufeng into the meditation room. In the end, he coaxed Shufeng for a long time before he was willing to let him into the meditation room.
In addition to helping with recording classes, Gu Shi also entrusted the care of Shufeng to Wendel.
In fact, you don't have to do anything, just help replenish water. Shufeng has strong self-care ability. Although it has not learned to fly yet, it can run very flexibly.
Time passed quickly, but Gu Shi, who had been in a meditative state, had no corresponding perception of time. He wholeheartedly felt the magic power in his body.
Finally, Gu Shi seized the opportunity, and then the breakthrough came naturally.
After the fluctuations of magic power in his body finally stabilized, Gu Shi couldn't wait to leave the meditation room. He was still very worried about Shufeng's condition during this period.
After all, Gu Shi has been with Shufeng since he was born. This is the first time that the man and the beast have been separated for such a long time.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Gu Shi walked out of the meditation room, a white ball fell at his feet.
Gu Shi said in surprise, "Shuofeng!"
“Chirp.”
Shufeng rubbed Gu Shi's robe excitedly, looking more like an enthusiastic big dog than a bird.
Looking at Shufeng's appearance, Gu Shi was a little amused and picked it up and put it on his shoulder.
Shufeng grabbed Gu Shi's clothes tightly, as if afraid that he would run away again, and leaned over and rubbed Gu Shi's face twice.
After the two of them finished interacting, Wendell, who was standing nearby, came over and said, "You're finally out. Shuofeng has been waiting for you here every day. If you don't let him come, he'll make a fuss."
Gu Shi didn't expect Shu Feng to be so persistent. He said a little embarrassedly, "I'm really sorry to have troubled you during this period, Wendel."
Wendell waved his hand. "I'm fine. Look, I built a little nest for Shufeng here. I just need to come and pick him up every morning and evening. I just can't stand his listless appearance.
I hope you come out.”
Gu Shi followed Wendel's gaze and looked to the side, and sure enough, he saw an exquisite little nest built in front of the door of the meditation room, with a lot of food and water placed next to it.
Gu Shi reached out and touched Shufeng again. During the time he was in seclusion, Shufeng had grown a lot.
"How many days have I been in the meditation room this time?"
Wendell counted on his fingers, "Thirty-two days, you haven't used up all your leave yet."
Gu Shi looked at the sky outside the window and said, "Let's go, it's dinner time.
To celebrate my breakthrough and to thank you for taking care of Shuofeng these days, let's go out for a big meal. I'll treat you. Do you have any recommendations for places?"
"A new restaurant recently opened in Congleton. I heard it's pretty well-received. It serves a specialty dish called hot pot, so I think I should go try it."
Gu Shi once again heard a familiar term in an unexpected place, "Hot pot, okay, let's go eat here."
Gu Shi hadn't eaten hotpot for several years, and he really missed it when he suddenly mentioned it.
Wendell added, "Don't forget to take North Wind's nest away with you."
Gu Shi put the things into the space, and then the two of them and the bird went to eat hot pot happily.
The next day, Gu Shi happened to have no classes, so he went to the Mage Tower in person and told Field the good news of his breakthrough. As a result, he received a new training schedule from him.
Looking at the arrangements one by one on the schedule, it is obvious that they were prepared in advance.
Gu Shi couldn't help but complain, "I'm really walking into a trap."
Of course Field would not fail to hear it, and he looked over with sharp eyes on the spot.
Gu Shi immediately shut up and added, "I didn't say anything just now."
Field didn't dwell on Gu Shi's little thought. He glanced at Shufeng on Gu Shi's shoulder and asked, "It's been almost two months since it hatched, right?"
Gu Shi nodded, "Yes, in eight days it will be two months."
Field instructed, "Pay close attention to it. It mutated while still in the egg, and its growth stages are likely different from those of ordinary Gale Eagles. You'll need to be on top of things."
"Okay, teacher."
Gu Shi naturally understood this truth. The north wind was special and could not be viewed with ordinary experience.
Because there is no similar example for Gu Shi to compare with, he can only rely on his master Gu Shi to put more effort in taking care of Shufeng during this stage of his growth.
After taking over the task from Field, Gu Shi returned to the academy to make up for his lessons while looking forward to the holiday.
After Gu Shi's breakthrough, there was only less than a month left before the start of this year's college assessment. To be honest, he was a little nervous.
I don’t know what the format will be this year. Last year’s questions gave him a lot of trouble.
Fortunately, the college obviously had no intention of conducting the same assessment twice in a row.
