"You can run outside the barrier at any time, it only works on spells, so it can help you stay out of danger. Feige walked barefoot on the stone floor of the playground, which had become warm under the flames. The flaming dragon head was attacking, biting left and right to devour the central assault, but it didn't affect the clear transmission of Feiqi's words. And Thunder White was too busy blocking it, and he couldn't take care of the rising ground, even if he heard the prompt, he couldn't respond.

Although it was more hectic, Thunder White still blocked the attack and passed the exam. So Feige began to ask the next question: "What is the most important measure of magic?"

There are many measures of magic, but which one is the most important? Thunder White hadn't thought about this before, but when you think about it, it's an important question. Unless only repeating the spells of the previous ones, a mage will always be challenged to improve the spells and research new ones.

No spell is perfect, let alone exhaustive, so every mage has to make a trade-off. The most important metric is the trade-off index, without which there is no correct guiding ideology, and it will often lead to half the effort, or even lead to research failure because of a thousand problems. So how do you answer this question?

Thunder White chooses not to answer, while concentrating on resisting Feige's spell to avoid being re-wounded. Feige smiled, not surprising about Thunder White's choice. In the previous exam rules, it was said that "those who answered correctly will be scored", so it is okay not to answer, at least not to be deducted. This is a gray area deliberately left by Feige, which examines the sensitivity of the magician to words.

"Since you don't speak, then I'll give you a few options, you can answer with a nod and a shake, or you can continue to answer without answering. Feige raised his wand, slashed his arm, and spun around his head. His mana suddenly strengthened the power of the flame dragon's head, causing it to swell violently, quadrupling in size. A huge faucet enveloped the entire playground, and the high heat radiating outward immediately vaporized all the moisture in the surrounding air. The rising mist distorted the scene, and the heat spreading in all directions was turned into a heat wave flying high into the sky by the hexagonal defensive array. The whole playground was turned into a huge stove.

"Spells can be measured by their power. Feige said: "Quantitative change produces qualitative change, miracles occur vigorously, and truth is only where power can be enveloped." Powerful forces can conquer and allow you to accomplish everything you want to accomplish. Isn't that right?"

Thunder White found that she was not capable of answering at all, and she used all her strength to force the heat around her away, and did not become "roasted" from the candidate. She was amazed by Feiqi's mana, the energy gathered by this fire dragon head in front of her refreshed the upper limit of her imagination, just triggering but not triggering was enough to suppress her, if she was hit, the consequences did not need to be imagined.

"Don't answer? I don't seem to like this answer very much. Fitch spun his wand, and five rune chains flew out of the magic matrix at once, spiraling up the dragon's head, finally hooking the dragon's open mouth in five directions. Thunder White didn't know what Fei Qi was going to do, but it could be seen that such an operation had pushed Fei Qi to the limit.

Not only does the right hand holding the wand have a magic matrix, but the magic matrix in Feige's left hand is also summoned to assist in this strange chain spell. For the first time, Thunder White saw Fei Qi staggering backwards, and then a strange circle of nine magic runes flashed from the back of his left hand. Based on the memories inherited from the Goddess of Truth Thunder, Thunder White recognized it as the "Realm of True Knowledge" rune seal. It was clear that Feige needed its help to control the spell in his hand.

The five rune mana chains suddenly tightened, and then pulled backwards, tearing the fire dragon into five sections at once. Not only that, but the five separate dragon heads each changed their forms, adding five snake heads that represented the power of space to the four elements of wind, fire, water and earth. They were much smaller than the previous dragon heads, but they appeared to be very agile, flying in the air, surrounding Thunder White from all directions, constantly spitting out snake letters, and continuously attacking with five types of power.

Feiqi led the five spell snakes with a chain of rune mana and asked, "Spells can be measured by skill." Skill is the embodiment of knowledge and control, and skill can cover more magical fields, which is a kind of comprehensiveness or a kind of intensive study. The only thing that limits your skill is your understanding of magic. What do you think?"

At this time, Thunder White had already opened two magic matrices, and it was only by quadruple casting that he could block the attacks of the five dragon heads. She found that each attack of each snake head seemed very powerful, and it was quite difficult to block. But if it is not blocked, it seems to be able to suddenly weaken, and it only hurts terribly when it hits the body, but it will not be seriously injured, let alone fatal. It seems that the energy rays that left the snake's head and were emitted were still under Feiqi's control, otherwise how could they hit him hard and fall lightly?

"If it was a normal fight, I would have been blown to pieces by this time, right?" Thunder White twitched, but still insisted on speaking. "Neither power nor skill is what I want to pursue. Next!"

"Good. Feiqi pulled the rune mana chain back, and the five snakes left Thunder White and turned around and flew towards Feiqi. They opened their mouths, biting into Feige one by one, before turning into pure mana flames. Feiqi was surrounded and engulfed by flames of five forms and five colors, and his figure was tightly obscured. Seeing this, Thunder White seized the time to recover and replenish the defensive spell on himself. Just when everyone thought she was going to continue to defend passively, she suddenly aligned the two magic matrices and made them spin at high speed! Obviously, she was going to use the skills she had used in the display to create irresistible rays of chaotic energy mana to fight against Fei Qi and try to get back to the disadvantage.

The flame of the spell that enveloped Feiqi's body continued to concentrate, and then Feiqi opened his mouth and sucked it in. In this way, he recovered the released mana, which was much smoother than the magic school textbook demonstrated, and had already made many students applaud. But Feige didn't move after that, just stood quietly, his wand drooping, and stared at Thunder White with a smile.

"Be careful!" Thunder White jerked forward with both hands, and unpredictable magical beams flew over at lightning speed. Feige raised his left hand without changing it, blocking it in front of him with a magic matrix. "This won't work!" Thunder White shouted, still worried about Feige.

"The third measure of magic: self-improvement. Fei Qi didn't do anything, and directly let Thunder White's spell hit his palm. The concentrated and powerful mana immediately tore through his flesh and skin, but more magical energy was immediately repaired, and the speed of the two was comparable. "As I said before, your idea is good, but it has no practical value. Look, it can't be a threat to me, can it?"

"That's for you!" Thunder White crooked his mouth, and then saw Fei Qi directly pinch the energy beam with his palm, holding it tightly in the palm of his hand. At this time, she didn't know how to understand this matter, it was obviously an unpredictable spell that could destroy all the orderly spell system, how could it be tamed?

"The target of an attacking spell is always the opponent, penetrating the barrier is only an intermediate process, and what happens after that is the most important measure of the spell. "Strengthen yourself with magic, including your body, mind, and soul," Feige said. Nothing is more important than maintaining existence, and without a living magician, there is no spell that exists. ”

Feige clenched his fist and directly smashed the energy beam with brute force, and then hammered the burst of energy to the ground, directly causing a small earthquake! But the ground of the playground was directly shattered, and Thunder White screamed and was thrown into the air.

"Speed. Fei Qi didn't use teleportation, but jumped directly to Thunder White with his strengthened legs. Before she could react, she had already pressed her palm on her face, covering it all over. "If I exert my strength, your face will be gone. ”

Thunder White shuddered, and then suddenly found that the shadow that had shrouded her eyes was gone, and so was Feige, and she stood firmly on the shattered ground. The sudden change made her stagger, but the reflex allowed her to regain her balance with a light step. She looked left and right, but there was no sign of Feige on the playground, and the detection spell she cast couldn't find Feige.

"The human body has limits, and magic allows people to reach and then exceed them. Powerful magic can preserve a person's consciousness, memory, and soul, and turn into a pure form of magical energy, completing immortality. Feiqi's voice came from all directions, and Thunder White could hear it clearly, but he couldn't rely on his ears to locate it. "There is no such thing as true and absolute eternal life, and the soul will always be consumed and it cannot be replaced. However, absorbing the soul power of others to make up for oneself is something that magic can do. It's just that you keep using other people's planks to repair your own ship, and when the planks on the left and right are replaced, are you still you?"

After saying that, Feige reappeared like a ghost. His eyes were flared with red flames, and a flickering white glow peeked through his open mouth - it was hard to say if he was human. "Do you think it's the most important thing to change yourself and achieve eternal life?"

"Maybe one day it will be very important, but that's 'one day'. Thunder White shook his head, reopened the two magic matrices, and said to Feiqi, "Now, the most important measure of magic is how to get a high score from you so that I can graduate!"

"It seems that you have chosen the fourth option: practicality. Feige smiled, took a deep breath, and sucked back the mana in his whole body, returning to his normal state. He took two steps forward, and when he saw Thunder Bai immediately acting on guard, he explained with a smile: "I just walked out of the pit I stepped on just now, and I was comfortable to stand like this, not to hit you." ”

"I've already chosen practical, can I score?" Thunder White didn't divert his attention from this.

"Yes, this option can score points, and the previous options can actually score points. Feige put his wand away, then flicked his wrist, his cartilage clicking.

"Then ......" Thunder Bai remained on guard and asked at the same time, "What kind of answer can add points?"

"Caution, for example, can add points. Magic is full of unknowns, and when stepping into the unknown, caution is the first priority, otherwise you will not even be able to accept failure. However, prudence is also a practical one, and it is a compromise made in pursuit of results. Fei Qi touched his chin and said, "You have a little plus!"

"Is my score enough?" asked Thunder White with a frown.

"As a score for the graduation exam is enough, so I congratulate you on completing the basic training course of the magic school. And based on what you did just now, you still need to continue to learn. ”

"Of course I'm going to keep learning, the minimum goal is to be able to beat you. Thunder Bai let out a long sigh of relief and took the two magic matrices back. She uses the mana of her defenses to herself, quickly recovering from bruises on her body. "You promised before, if you don't understand magic, I can ask you. How did you do that, can you say it now?"

The answer is behind you. Feige smiled.

Thunder Bai turned her head and saw the cat-teasing stick inserted on the ground as part of the protective barrier, the tip of the staff was glowing slightly, and the mana fluctuation characteristics it exhibited were different from the protective circle that had begun to dissipate, and she had just noticed this. At the same time, a familiar figure gradually appeared next to the cat teaser, holding it in his left hand and smiling at Thunder Bai.

"Was this all an illusion just now?" Thunder White turned his head and saw that the barefoot Feige was still standing on the playground. She shook her head back and forth, realizing that both Feige seemed to be real. "What's going on?"

"This is a lesson, and I'm sorry to make it up to you when you graduate. Feige said to Thunder White, "From the moment you come to the playground and start preparing, the illusion begins. If you trust me more, you'll know that I won't hurt you, so the only way to take a safe exam is illusion. You're reassuring to be preparing, but you're not prepared for the situation where I'm already setting up an ambush. ”

"What about the fire dragon, the five snakes and the strong physical fitness just now?" Thunder Bai felt incredulous and asked, "They were all created with illusions?"

"Not exactly illusion. I can block your spells, but it won't be that easy. Illusion creates part of it, and the other part is strength. "What is the most important thing about magic? I think it's the doubt that comes with thinking and the confidence that comes from practice, and merging them with one's own soul, and that's magic, so that the soul can truly become the source of change in the world." ”

"Well, I remember. Thunder White said. "But you still haven't said how to do the spell before. ”

"The first is to make you believe what you see...... In fact, doing this, coupled with constant practice, is realistic enough. Feiqi spread his hands and said, "Thunder White, you should trust me more than what you see." How could I hurt you?"

"I feel like you're running away from the problem. Lei Tingbai frowned, trying his best to recall the entire exam process he had just experienced, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. "Headmaster, I don't believe it was an illusion just now! You're just lazy and don't want to tell me what's going on! Your own strength is so strong, don't use illusion to cover it up! It's all true just now!"

Feiqi hurriedly waved his hand and flatly denied it: "Why did you start to be superstitious about what your eyes see again? I said it was illusion!"

Not only did Thunder Bai not believe it, but the teachers and students of the whole school were skeptical.

The shattered playground is their most important argument, and only a strong enough mana can destroy it so completely.

It was a lot of work to fix the playground – and later students said so.
