Chapter 9 – Quizzes
"That's a real talent."
Gu Lie sighed meaningfully, after all, in this world, magic is something that only a few people can touch. However, I was surprised that I had mastered it in such a short period of time, as if I had just been born and could walk. However, surprise is surprise, this kind of extremely talented child is a rare seed in the world in the eyes of Gu Lie, who is a magic instructor, and can be born into a big tree at any time.
"With this talent, I should be able to make an exception to recommend him to the Academy of Magic. But there are some things I care about......"
After these words, Ao Rui obviously understood something, and said to Gu Lie:
"In terms of physical strength, it should be considered relatively poor. But I think I'll be able to come back after that."
"Strea?" I thought that the mage only needed IQ to be enough, until I heard about the physical strength, my fragile body couldn't help but shudder.
"After all, potential mages are all selected from the War College, and as a rookie mage, it's not a wise choice to stand and be beaten."
Gu Lie's expression began to become a little mocking.
"No, you think mages are stupid and waiting to be beaten. It's not like the old mage, the premise of inflexibility is based on the premise of having a large spell that can be completely inaccessible to others."
"Is that just a flexible dodge?" When I heard the word flexible, I instantly felt that I could do it even if I didn't have a good physique.
"Oh, so confident. Then try it tomorrow."
After all this incident, I finally arranged for me to enter the Academy of Magic. Since Ao Rui said that he needed to go back first, he asked Suiye to help take care of me before officially enrolling. Gulie said that he would come back to him the next day for a final test. So the rest of the time, Hota took me out on the streets.
"Hey, it's been a long time since I've been back to my alma mater. But Sakiyu, you're really talented, and you can do it so easily with something that takes so much time. ”
"It's not that Sister Sui's guidance is so precise that it can be described so accurately"
"Hey, that's a nice thing to say, now that you've learned magic, it shouldn't be a problem to use magic. Now I'll teach you some more magic that you'll learn when you enter school."
In the midst of your back and forth chats, Spiya rose up and handed me more of the magic she would learn at first, including her most skilled magic silk. This trick turned out to be a beginner magic, which is really unexpected. As it got dark, we found a hotel to rest. A modest room, with two simple but sturdy beds and twinkling stars outside the window, tells the story of a quiet night. The events of today are the lightest memories I have since that came.
"I said," said Honaya, lying on the bed heroically.
"Tomorrow's test should be a battle, you have to be ready"
“…… What kind of battle, what is the purpose" I suddenly heard Anya say this, and it was only then that I felt nervous and confused.
"The purpose is to test physical fitness, but it will hurt somewhat, which is inevitable. But the main purpose is to test whether you have enough flexibility to meet the most basic requirements."
Suiya paused, and continued: "Come on." ”
I don't know what it's like to be encouraged like this. At least, I have enough confidence to fight tomorrow.
By the next day, the weather was quite crisp, and the rag-like clouds were in front of the setting sun, dyeing themselves a brilliant orange. The breeze gently passed by, making the clothes flutter gently. Suiye and I got up and went to the location arranged by Gu Lie together. After less than a while, an energy gate suddenly appeared around him, and then Gu Lie's huge body came out.
"Ah, you're all here. Without further ado, let's go straight away. ”
Seeing that we had all arrived, Gurlie led us through the portal without stopping. The portal hovered like a mirror, and in the middle was a place that had never been seen before. It was very interesting when I walked through, and in the blink of an eye, I came to the magic academy that I had to look at from afar. The academy was much larger than expected, with towering minarets as striking as lighthouses, castle-style buildings against the walls covered in climbing vines, a small open space surrounded by walls, and even an arsenal of weapons for practice. A magical aura surrounds the place.
"I've already arranged the class you entered last night, but I'll tell you about the admission to the Academy of Magic by the way."
Gu Lie introduced to me that although this is a magic academy, there will still be places where you need to exercise your physical fitness, mainly to prevent the mage from being too stiff and being targeted by other people's armies. Secondly, like the War College, students are also allowed to compete in weapons, of course, the original intention is to develop dual cultivators, and secondly, to increase students' ability to deal with hand-to-hand combat. Then, if there are 12 students in a class, too much will lead to an imbalance in education, too few people and too few people. However, I was an exception to the school and had to fight my assigned class to see if I could meet the physical requirements. If he succeeds, he will be the thirteenth person in the class......
While chatting, we entered the big castle and entered a small room. It's a classroom, and it's a little bigger than you think. Twelve students, sitting in a lecture hall. Turn all eyes here as we enter. A werewolf teacher in front of him was giving a lesson, and it sounded like some counter-attack techniques for hand-to-hand combat.
"Chongming, the kid I'm talking about is here."
Tall and tall, seemingly thin but tough. The tone of his speech is very elegant and easy-going, which is very fascinating. When the teacher named Chongming heard Gu Lie's words, he first stared at me with a rather surprised look, and then said to the students with joy.
"So, we're going to start this lesson."
He said something, and instantly opened a portal for the students to pass. A few of these students didn't care about my presence at all, and staggered towards the portal, while the other students couldn't take their eyes off me and Honya.
"It's a new student, and I actually entered our class."
"Anyway, isn't it the previous genius Miss Suiya behind that, how did you come here?"
Under all kinds of noisy words, the students went to the portal. Then we followed. At the other end of the portal is the large square that I just passed, and next to it is the practice arsenal that I just passed.
"This time, we have a new classmate, does anyone want to compete with him?"
The teacher didn't seem to reveal anything about me and what I was going to test. However, this also makes the students quite active, although a few of them don't seem to be fighting spirits.
"The classmates are quite enthusiastic, so let's do it, Sakiyu, you can choose one of the active people among them as your opponent" Teacher Shigeaki turned his head and asked me to choose a partner when he saw that the students were so enthusiastic.
"Teacher, you...... You know my name."
"Of course, after all, the ancient predecessors told me."
For such an easy transition, this teacher is really amazing. No wonder the students in the class reacted so positively to him. Then I took a look at the active students, and saw a classmate who looked similar to me but was older than me, so I chose him.
"Come on, Genos-san. This new classmate has chosen you."
When Mr. Shigeaki said it, he suddenly laughed. The other students also began to whisper. Without exception, it is said that I have chosen the squad leader with the strongest reality in this class, although I am not particularly worried that my ability is too weak, but it will still be a little ...... to choose the strongest Concerns.
"Yo brother, you have a good eye. Then I'll use the dagger this time, you'll do it yourself," he said, and walked to the arsenal.
Hearing that it was a short sword, the mood that was actually a little looking forward to it suddenly became half overcast. After all, the first time you officially took up arms to fight it, you used a short sword. But there was no point in thinking about it, so I followed him to the arsenal.
We walked to the arsenal, which was like Ao Rui's loot room, messed up but easy to find. The weapon is also the wooden weapon in Ao Rui's house. Genos began to expertly rummage through the daggers, but when he turned his head and saw me lying there stupidly, he began to comfort me.
"What's the matter, brother, haven't you ever seen this kind of weapon reinforced with magic? But it doesn't matter, this arsenal will also be used by new students like us, and in the future, we will use spells to bombard. Seeing that I was so sluggish, he paused, and continued. The dagger is actually quite easy to deal with, you can use a longarm to confront me, it is easy to defend against me and it is easy to counterattack. ”
I didn't expect him to be so gentle with people, maybe in addition to strength, personality charm should also be his strength as a squad leader. When he found the dagger, he told me that he had gone out and waited for me. While his advice was very helpful to me, more dangerous thoughts came to my mind at this point.
Genos walked leisurely to his prepared position with his weapon in hand, and showed a look of wanting to release the water. After the meeting, I walked towards the venue with my weapon. When he saw me, he visibly became angry, as if he was ashamed of being underestimated.
"Hey, brother, do you look down on me?" Genos stared at the wooden dagger in my hand as if I stood tall above him and stared at him mockingly, though I didn't have that thought.
"No, no, no, I just wanted to try ......." At this time, this justification pale in his eyes.
"Okay, no more nonsense, the battle begins!" Shigeaki commanded.
Obviously affected by his mood, Genos rushed at me recklessly, his sword-gripping hand slashing at me like a demon. But I'm ready for it. Due to the rage, the preparation for each slash is quite obvious. With the experience of fighting Ao Rui, he used a dagger to accurately flick his sword away every time. Perhaps due to his combat experience, he saw that he missed the cut for a long time, stood on his feet in an instant, and then slammed into him.
"Collision!" I guessed that he would use this trick just as he was on his feet, but I didn't plan to hide for the sake of training myself. I let him hit him directly, and the momentum caused me to take a few steps backwards and nearly fall. He followed with his thrust attack, straight at me. Even if it were me, I'd make up for a spurt attack after the collision. But after thinking about it, it's almost over. I then quickly squatted down to dodge the stab, and then stabbed him as fast as I could. However, I was worried about some things, and after hitting it, I suddenly unloaded my force and stopped. After Jenos stabbed the air, he realized that it was an opportunity, and instantly took his sword in his backhand and stabbed me in the back, until the point was reached.
"Stop! The winner is decided! Genos wins! ”
Genos's tense nerves relaxed. But he himself noticed what I had just unloaded, and turned around and began to think. Of course, I also stood up and walked towards Gu Lie to get the result.
"Well, qualified, then the flexible defense is already quite powerful. So let's introduce myself to all of you. ”
"Hmm... All right. I began to turn to everyone.
"My name is Hansaki, and I'm thirteen years old. Well...... Do I have anything more to say? ”
"Then classmates, you have to have a good relationship with your new classmates" Chongming looked at the situation and helped me round the scene.
"Wow, the squad leader really won, but you're so good."
"Your skills are too strong, how can you cultivate?"
My classmates began to pour in and ask me all kinds of questions. Although none of them were answered.
"Then it's time to think about your accommodation, Saki......" Guree began to talk about my accommodation here.
"Come live with me, we still have a vacant seat in our room."
Genos said to Gu Lie without hesitation, it seems that Genos has also become interested and questioned. But at least, I passed the quiz. After many twists and turns, my life at the Academy of Magic officially began.
