That would be quite a feat! I tried again and did manage to do it at level 4, but I think I could have avoided even more XP. I really doubt it can be done at level 1, though. There is a lot of exploration XP and using the bloodstones/star stones also grants XP. But maybe you can prove me wrong.
At the same time, it doesn't help much if you don't have the $$$ to buy the books every level, and they are expensive.
