Jeming couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
The first method is basically not worth considering. Although the wizard civilization is quite advanced, Eighth Level Wizards are definitely the ceiling.
As for Ninth Level Wizards, such beings have already transcended the concept of this world, existing far beyond the ceiling.
Although from the perspective of the entire wizard civilization there are quite a few Eighth Level Wizards, most of them follow Ninth Level Wizards closely, expanding territories on the real frontlines.
Like Nolun Academy... even the entire Nolun Workshop area it manages is actually just the scraps of the Plane Battlefield, not even qualifying as "bandit suppression," at most it's "post-war reconstruction."
So expecting to find an Eighth Level Wizard to deal with enemies is out of the question, only the remaining two methods can be used.
