Gravity Mage with Level-Up System

(From MC's perspective)

The Yellow River Academy,

After checking the status panel, I walked away from this place. I don't know whether the resource collected will be enough to top the rankings. For the first time, I have this confusion. If it was a combat trial, I can be sure of myself. But here apart from having strength, you need knowledge and luck.

When I looked at the list on my watch. My eye gleamed with a twinkle. Instead of roaming here and there, I decided to find the pond where the white lotus flower grows.

Time passed in a blink of an eye.

Crystal Pond,

More than three hours later, I rechecked the list again. Right after leaving that dark water swamp. I had managed to find the white lotus flower and others resources on the way. The number of the white lotus was 10 in numbers.

But I believe this number is enough to earn more points. The white lotus flower is a rare magical plant. So I was fortunate to find it quickly. When I was returning back from the crystal pond. I vaguely hear some noise.

Hearing that I quickly stopped my movements. The noise doesn't sound to be so simple. When I perked up my ears to listen. The sound seems to be more of a human conversation. "There are others coming in my direction," I raised my eyebrows in surprise.

Swish!

Right after, I disappeared from my spot and hid behind a nearby tree. Shortly after, I spotted a few inner house wizards coming together in two small groups. My eyes gleamed with a twinkle.

I wasn't surprised by their appearance. But their topic of discussion intrigued me. After a couple of minutes, the group walked past me and head straight toward the crystal pond.

"So these guys escaped from the attack of strange insects," Looking east, I muttered to myself. Bugs? I couldn't help but think of the level-6 Insect Wizard from the Dark League. It will be interesting to see whether the bugs in this forest have any close resemblance.

Then a quick gleam flashes in my eyes. The appearance of strange insects was not without any coincidence. There might be some resources there. Should I go there? I don't have any other clues, besides this one.

So I feel it's better to check that place. After gaining some clarity, I rushed toward the eastern direction.

30 minutes later,

I reached the location. But the thing before me caught my eye. "Deadwood branch," I uttered in surprise. Before me, there is a giant magic shade tree that stands tall. Down the ground, I see many roots from the tree spread in all directions.

For a moment, I stood in silence. The tree doesn't seem to be so simple. I get a certain off-vibe from it. Besides, I see no other living creatures nearby. It was a fluke to get the vine plant without any disturbance.

Swish!

When I was lost in thoughts. The branches from the tree suddenly moved. Seeing that, my heart skips a beat. "Damn, it's a monster," I cursed under my breath. My doubts became immediately clear in my heart.

Fortunately, I didn't move forward. The giant shade tree is itself a sleeping monster. I don't whether I'm allowed to kill it or not. Because the magic forest is a resource point of our academy.

So the existence of the tree monster is must have known to them. Yet they didn't kill the monster. After gaining some clarity, I decided to cut some branches before moving away from this place.

"Repulsive Force," I cast the spell, as I walked forward.

A huge repulsive force released from my body. The next second, it swept away the nearby debris and rocks.

Feeling the attack, the giant shade tree monster woke up. The trunk shook. Causing some shockwaves across the surroundings. The repulsive force reached the giant shade tree, and out of nowhere one of the branches collided with the repulsive force.

Boom!

A terrible sound resonated throughout the whole area.

The branch broke into pieces after the blow. Seeing that my eyes flickered with a quick glint. I rushed to pick up the broken pieces. As I picked a few within a couple of seconds. I see another branch coming towards me.

I realized the tree monster is slow in response. Then after glancing at other fallen pieces. I became hesitant. I really don't want to confront this rare monster. Then I retreated backward in a blink of an eye.

It's pity that I couldn't able to collect all of the fallen branches. After taking a glance at the monster, I rushed away from this place.

The tree monster swayed the branches in fierce anger. But it couldn't move its body to catch the enemy. After some time, the anger subsided. The tree monster returned to its normal position like nothing had happened.

Meanwhile,

Lara White and others have collected enough listed resources. So they are not worried about the rankings, unlike Lara White. In her view, she is competing with Vincent Carey. Right now she has collected more than 10 listed resources. But still, she doesn't feel confident enough.

Unless she turns upside down a whole magic forest. Her heart won't rest at all.

Inside the monitor room,

Wizard Lion couldn't able to sit still. He hadn't expected Vincent to meet the tree monster. No level-4 wizards can kill the Tree monster. The tree monster is rare existence, as long as the wizards move around in a certain range. The tree monster won't able to do anything.

But after seeing Vincent's magic spell, he was really worried. Worried that the sub-taboo magic spell might cause damage to the Tree monster. But when he saw that Vincent backed away after collecting the few broken dead wood branches. He sighed in relief.

He is happy that Vincent knows his limit. "Now that kid tops the rank," Lion muttered to himself. The deadwood branch is an extremely important resource. Even a single branch can earn a lot of points. On top of it, Vincent still has a collection of other rare resources.

Meanwhile,

I found some good spots to rest. Sitting on the rock, I viewed the time. There are still 6 hours left before the end of the competition. I don't what others are doing. Sighing, I decided to check the status. I think my mana won't be able to support for me long.

"System, show my status panel," I said to the system.

A row of information appeared before my eyes. My eyes immediately scanned the details. Seeing that my mana power is pitifully low, a wry smile appeared on my face. The drop in vitality also caught my attention.

"It's not solved," I uttered in surprise. No wonder, I feel so tired. Then I drank some potion again. Hoping to get cured with this potion. If not I'll have to ask Mentor Lion later.

Then I took some low-grade mana stones for practice. My current mana power is not enough to withstand the current changes.

Time passed in a blink of an eye,

After two hours, I opened my eyes. The mana stones in my palm lost their luster. Seeing that, my eyes gleamed with a twinkle. Feeling the energy brewing inside the mana core, I feel the mana power is full.

"System, show my status panel," I said to the system.

Seeing the full mana power in status. A hint of relief flashes in my eyes.
