Chapter Seventy-Five: Duel Drills
"I'm ......" Khadgar stood up a little nervously as Archmage Modra called out his name.
"Don't be nervous, kid, come here!" Modra said to him very kindly.
Khadgar nodded, and slowly walked to the front desk, facing hundreds, if not thousands, of mages in the audience.
"Welcome to Dalaran, Khadgar! How long have you been exposed to magic? Modra asked.
"Less than three ...... Three years! ”
"And what about your current strength?"
"Four Rings!"
……
"What a monster!" Polly couldn't help but speak.
"Monsters?" Carlin was surprised.
"Yes, I've been studying magic for ten years, and now I'm only three rings; He reached the fourth ring in less than three years, and he is not a monster? Polly shouted with an indignant face, thought for a moment and added, "But yes, you elves are not very sensitive to the concept of time!" ”
"It's not very sensitive!" Carlin nodded.
He didn't remember exactly how long it had been since he had traveled to Azeroth!
It shouldn't be more than two years though!
……
Khadgar's words came down, and he was immediately greeted by the eager eyes of those archmages on the stage.
Especially the protective mages who sat behind the Council of Six, those six rings, seven rings, and still had empty positions for disciples.
A fourteen-year-old mage who had only been exposed to magic for less than three years had already broken through the four rings softly...... This is absolute genius...... Not to mention that his powerful spiritual power was almost twice that of an ordinary mage of the same level.
Such a genius, with a little guidance, is destined to achieve something on the arcane ladder in the future!
And as a mentor, naturally you can also be invisibly stained.
However, there seem to be many people who have this intention, and it is not their turn.
You must know that in the six-member council, the major direction of the two main members is the protection department.
Antonidas, the Speaker of the Council of Six, was a kind-faced old man with black and white hair draped naturally behind him......
He stood up, walked over, and calmly asked Khadgar, "Mr. Khadgar, I only have one disciple under my command at present, would you be willing to be my other?" ”
As soon as Antonidas's words fell, he saw Prince Kael'thas not far from him also stand up:
"I'm sorry, Speaker Antonidas! Even though I already have two students, I don't mind making an exception for Mr. Khadgar! Kael'thas said unhurriedly.
Khadgar, who was already a little timid, was already stunned at this time.
Antonidas is such a powerful nine-ring, white-robed mage, a figure he has admired since he was a child.
And the High Elf Prince of Kael'thas, needless to say, is a legendary existence!
They actually asked themselves at the same time if they would like to be their students?
But the choice is clearly not in Khadgar's hands.
The two top levels of Dalaran looked at each other for a moment!
There will be no quarrels, and there will be no fearless fights...... Archmages with this kind of experience and level can't make any conflict over the belonging of a student.
It's okay to discuss with each other a little bit with your mental power!
After a few seconds, Kael'thas chose to give up.
"But since Speaker Antonidas has spoken first, I won't do anything useless!" Smiling, Kael'thas sat back in his seat.
Antonidas also nodded, the agreement was naturally not unilateral...... Since Kael'thas generously ceded the belonging of this student to him, he will definitely return the favor and pay a small price!
"Mr. Khadgar, would you like it?" The archmage on the side, Modra, reminded with a smile.
"I do! I do! Khadgar hurriedly shouted, as if he was worried that Antonidas would repent!
……
"I'm so envious!"
Looking at Antonidas and Khadgar, who were signing the contract on the stage, Polly Moni couldn't help but speak again.
Tonight, she doesn't know how many times she has said "envy"!
Carlin tried to comfort her, but was interrupted by the host of the banquet, Archmage Modra
"Now, please sit in the front rows of mages who score above 'eight' in the mental power test, get ready! Next, you have to draw lots to conduct a duel drill! ”
"It's coming, it's coming! The acting of the duel, the main drama is coming! Polly instantly changed her face and prepared to attack, as she whispered to Carlin.
"The drill of the duel, what's the situation?" Carlin didn't quite understand.
"It is a common practice every year that mages who perform better in the mental power test will have a duel performance in pairs and openly!" Polly said quickly, "Don't worry about the safety situation, the protective measures for the exercise are sufficient; And don't worry too much about winning or losing, the main purpose of the drill is to let the archmages see how much control you have over various magics; As long as the performance is good, even if you lose, it will attract the attention of several archmages......"
"So......" Carlin nodded.
"Also, it's better not to meet a mage who is much stronger than you......" Polly's tone suddenly became low: "I met a mage who was much stronger than me at this time last year, and I was beaten without the power to fight back, and then I was not selected by any of the archmages......"
"I hope the Titans bless, my luck won't be so bad this year!" While praying, she stole a glance at Khadgar in front of her.
……
As Archmage Modra waved her staff, the earth began to tremble slightly, and the seats on the rostrum and under the stage quickly opened up, and the gap between them quickly expanded! A huge "square", emerging from the ground, appeared between them.
The terrain is very complex, with hills, rivers, and ...... It's a small battlefield!
"Now let's announce the list of confrontations for the first group...... Miss Polly, and Mr. Hoffman! Archmage Modra glanced at the note in her hand and read it out.
When Polly heard this, she quickly stood up and trotted to the front desk.
Opposite her was a tall human mage.
A couple of battle mages sent over two strange sets of white mage robes to help them change in!
"These are the best quality protective robes, with the mage attacks you can unleash, it will be difficult to cause damage to the opponent through this robe, so please don't spare your hands!" "And the appearance of the two robes has already released a color enchantment, once damaged, it will slowly turn from white to red, as long as the color of one of the robes completely changes to red, you can judge defeat!" ”
"Questions?" She glanced at the two mages.
