Unlike the first three exams, the fourth and most important subject, the magic test, is not a test in which everyone sits in a classroom and writes papers in harmony, but an actual test.

On the fifth floor of the Magic Society, in a large and bright room, behind a long table sat three mages in robes.

On the far left is Rupert, who is looking at the sheet on his desk, occasionally jotting down something with his pen.

On the far right is a chubby middle-aged woman with fluffy hair hanging down to her ears, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, her robe without any wrinkles, and her cuffs with three gold trims glittering in the afternoon sun.

The old man, who sat in the middle, had no hair, his goatee was neatly combed, and he held a delicate quill and raised his head slightly.

"James. Pachewell, the spell you submitted was a Magic Water Curtain Mirror Wall, and you did successfully cast it. ”

The old man's voice was low, echoing in the empty room, his cuffs, the four gold coins made people unable to take their eyes off, this was a four-ring mage.

In fact, this is also the president and chief executive of the Toorondo Magical Association. Greze, who specializes in elementals, has been a reviewer for magic tests for ten years.

Hearing President Daniel's words, James's originally tense nerves relaxed slightly, but the other party's next sentence made the young man's heart hang again.

"However, in the midst of this, the flow of mana has been disturbed three times, and thanks to your own mana reserves, you can suppress the turbulence, otherwise you will definitely fail."

President Daniel's words made James's eyes widen, indeed, there were some mistakes in the process of casting the spell just now, all because of the "gift" that Reiner gave them before, which caused James's distraction, which is indeed true, but the process of his spell just now obviously did not show any flaws on the surface, and the person in front of him could easily see through it?

"Don't underestimate the teacher, little one."

President Daniel saw James's doubts, and of course he knew that the Peachville family had a certain foundation here, but if he had been afraid of this, he probably wouldn't have chosen to be a judge ten years ago.

"Let's get out."

With a wave of his hand, President Daniel ordered James to leave, marking the score on the record sheet.

And the two judges next to him also noted down their own points at the same time.

This is actually very similar to the situation when reviewing an academic paper, where the three reviewers have their own weights, and the final result is given by the unified score.

However, the evaluation criteria for this link are also very clear.

The apprentices first submit a ring of magic that they are ready to test, and then cast it on the spot, and the judges score it according to the situation of the cast, and the results are obvious to those who fail to cast the spell.

As for the successful caster, the reviewer will gradually give points on the passing line according to the details of the cast, and finally get a relatively accurate result, which is a bit like the scoring of sports events on the earth, although subjectivity has a certain influence, but the basic evaluation criteria still exist.

After James left, the next one to come in was Dana.

"Hello adults, I'm Dana. Christine, the magic I'm going to cast is a ring of magic, fireballs. ”

Dana's palms were sweaty, and she whispered, not daring to look directly at the three judges, trying to ease her nerves.

Despite her confidence when she chatted with Reiner in the morning, Dana was still an apprentice who had just mastered the art of spellcasting, and this time she didn't take the exam with the intention of passing.

Even if it is necessary for ordinary quasi-one-ring mages to engrave spells in their souls, Dana has not had time to prepare.

"Christine, Millie, is this the one?"

President Daniel asked the female judge next to him in a voice that Dana couldn't hear.

"That's right, this is the orphan of Mr. and Mrs. Christine."

The mage who had been replaced with Millie replied, Atru. Kristen and Erena. Christine is a somewhat famous mage in the province of Ammonet, although it has been ten years since the accident between the two, there are still many old mages in the Torondo Magic Association who remember the two of them.

It's just Dana's uncle, Chester. Christine doesn't have a good relationship with the Magic Association, so Dana's situation is not known to these people, and of course, people like President Daniel have only had a few relationships with Christine and his wife, not to mention taking care of friends and orphans.

Dana didn't notice the judges' comments, and with Rupert's permission, she raised her hand and faced the side of the room with a deep piece of obsidian.

This device is designed to test the power of magic, able to withstand direct hits and give power stats from standard spells below the three rings, while also absorbing excess energy, which comes in handy when the mage apprentice chooses offensive magic.

"Interesting."

President Daniel smiled slightly when he saw what Dana was holding.

It was a staff.

To be exact, it was a wooden staff about a third of a yard long, with no traces of magic on it, not a magic item, just an ordinary, slender wooden stick.

This was proposed by Reiner in order to give Dana a psychological hint that if she held the "staff", she would be able to successfully cast magic.

It wasn't a violation of the rules of the appraisal, but it just made President Daniel find the little girl very interesting.

Dana closed her eyes, and the intricate and beautiful spell model of the fireball spell appeared in her mind, and many nodes lit up one by one, shining like stars, and at the same time, a dazzling number of magic channels continued to weave between these nodes, gradually depicting the spell model of the fireball spell.

But a little spark flickered, and from several key spell nodes, a huge torrent of magic power gushed out, which was not the power that would normally occur during the fireball spell casting process.

Dana watched as the torrent burst through the harmonious spell model and poured out of her fingertips through her staff.

Bang –

The loud roar nearly shattered the magically enhanced windows in the room, and a flash of light flew from the tip of the staff, striking directly at the obsidian slab.

The wind was raging, and the dust kicked up hit the three judges.

Rupert stood up, and with a slight increase in his hand, a transparent wall of wind appeared in front of the three of them, blocking the air flow with an understatement.

When the dust settled, President Daniel shook his head, this was obviously not a characteristic of the fireball technique, and it seemed that Dana had indeed failed to cast the spell.

"Dana. Christine, I'm sorry you ...... Hey? ”

Before President Daniel could finish speaking, Millie tugged at his cuff and pointed to the obsidian slab.

I saw that on the stone slab that could withstand the direct impact of the standard spells below the three rings, a clearly visible crack appeared!
