"Edward, he thought you were a normal person." Ash said amusedly.

"Uh...... Don't talk nonsense. Edward told Ash to be quiet, after all, this coachman is an ordinary person, and Edward took off the mage badge when he entered the silver city-state, so this coachman naturally thinks that Edward and several young people are here to study, after all, the children from other countries who came from the barren wilderness to the silver city-state through magic airships are all rich aristocratic children.

It is rare for a person to be able to become a full-fledged mage at such a young age in the Silver City-State, and although the coachman is well-informed, he didn't think of it so much for a while, and Edward was very polite.

The coachman's kind-hearted Edward couldn't say anything, but the coachman said to himself: "It seems that you don't have the talent for earth elemental magic, that's a pity." However, our Four Elements Academy in Fiada will always have something for you. ”

"Elemental Academy? Is this a specialization in elemental magic? Edward asked.

"Of course, we in Fiada are known as the Elemental City. Didn't the adults teach you before you came? This is a bit irresponsible, the top seven magic schools in our Silver City-State represent the seven city-states, our Fiada is the second largest city in the Silver City-State, and Fiada School of Magic is the top school after College City. Specializing in the four elemental magic of water, fire, and wind, we have a large number of mages at Fiada School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. However, the entry requirements are very strict, and I advise you to test your magical talents before going to a lower school for a while. After this year's college competition, there will be a final test at the end of June, and the next batch will be brushed at the end. You'll have a chance to sign up in July. The old coachman was obviously familiar with the situation, so he opened his mouth and came.

Edward listened attentively. After all, the rules and regulations of the silver city-state are very sound, and he is very talented. However, it is difficult to save the procedures that you need to go through to join a top magic school.

Moreover, the four-element magic belongs to the most basic magic, and even necromancy has a strong relationship with earth magic. Therefore, although the four elemental mages are common, the combat strength of specialized elemental mages is still very strong.

Water mages are not good at fighting, but they are strong in field control and healing, especially when promoted to advanced ice mages, those slowing and freezing effects are disgusting.

°F°F, earth mages are the best at defense and field control, destroying terrain is their forte, and the advanced forces that can control magnetism and gravity will become very difficult in the later stage.

The fire mage kills everything violently, and the powerful output is the life of the fire mage. Promoted to Flame Mage, the terrible damage that can erupt is simply an explosion.

The number of wind mages is the rarest, and the early abilities are a little worse than those of water mages, but the advantage is that wind spells are transparent and good at yin, and at the same time, the auxiliary ability is also good. At the advanced stage, he was promoted to a thunderbolt mage, and his furious output ability can even wrestle his wrist with a fire mage.

Elemental mages are the most learned, and they are simple and easy to understand, but they are difficult to learn to master, and the shortcomings are obvious.

But the so-called number of people is overwhelming. With a huge base, the Elemental Magic Academy has become the second largest magic school.

"Grandpa, can you tell us about the top colleges in the Silver City-State? I'd like to get the full picture. Edward asked.

"Hey, the young man is very ambitious. Still can't look down on our Fiada School of Witchcraft and Wizardry? The old man said angrily.

"No, no. I just want to find out, after all, I've heard that the Silver City-State has a lot of unique magic schools, so I want to know more. And I don't necessarily have a talent for elemental magic. Edward quickly explained.

"Hehe, I'm just scaring you." The old man was also joking.

"You know that our Silver City-State was formerly known as the Seven Cities Alliance?" The old man said.

"Yes." As long as you know a little bit about history, you can know this. All three girls nodded.

"In fact, when the Seven Cities Alliance, it was not simply an alliance of only seven city-states. It's just that seven of the city-states are the strongest. Later, after the Battle of Fire and Tears and the Battle of the Broken Staff, two city-states of the Seven Cities Alliance were completely destroyed, so they could only be changed to silver city-states after reconstruction. However, the establishment of the Seven Cities was still retained. And the status of these seven cities is completely determined by the strength of the magic academies of each city. That's what the House Contest is for. The old man said proudly.

"I didn't expect the Academy Competition to have such a historical reason." Edward sighed.

"Yes, so the annual Academy Competition is a major event in our country, and this year's one is about to be held, so you can come to the right time, and you can go to the Academy City in April." The old man said with a smile.

"We're here to see the Academy." Edward replied.

"Really? I thought you didn't even know that. The old man laughed and said, "It's far away, where did you just descend?" …… Oh, it's after the rebuilding of the silver city-state, the magic schools of the original five cities are still there, but in recent years, those dwarves in the south have developed rapidly, and last year two new magic schools occupied the position of the seven cities at once. The old man didn't seem happy in his tone.

"Shorty?" Riven is a little sensitive to this, but after thinking about it, it seems that there shouldn't be many dwarves in the silver city-state?

"It's the gnomes, those guys are smart and obsessed with alchemical magic. They used to be slaves of mages, but later they were so smart that they actually learned magic while doing odd jobs for mages. There was a ** teacher who whimsically wanted to train a dwarf disciple, and then really made that dwarf a powerful great magician. Later, the gnomes were free, and now they all live by the sea in the south. It seemed to notice the dislike in Ruiwen's tone, so the old man quickly changed his words, but he didn't apologize or anything.

"Gnomes? They are said to have goblin blood, so it's not surprising that they have such a magical talent. "Riven's adoptive father, Orin, the master explorer, has studied all the dwarf races.

Dwarves come from giants, otherwise there would be no god of war dwarves who are taller than humans, which is an atavistic phenomenon.

Gnomes are a combination of goblins and humans, and goblins are a type of orcs.

"Oh, it's wrong again, it's easy to make mistakes when people get old." The old man patted his head as if his brain was really broken, and then said: "There are naturally a lot of magic academies in our silver city-state, and the Deep Blue Academy in College City among the seven magic academies is a comprehensive magic school, and you must be the elite of each academy to study there, so you have no hope." The second is our Fiada Academy, which I just told you about. The third is the city of Butcarson, also known as the city of the East, in the easternmost part of the city-state. There's a very old school of magic, Battle Mages, but unfortunately Battle Mages are more demanding than Deep Blue Academy, so you're even more hopeless. ”

"Battlemage!" Edward's heart lit up, this is what he was looking for, Edward was a kind of blade mage of the battle mage who worked at the violent female master, but unfortunately at that time, he only gave the intermediate mage a cultivation method. I can't go back to the Land of the Dead now, so this time the Silver City-State Edward Chong is a battle mage.

"You don't want to learn battle mages, do you? Although the battle mage is very good at fighting, the battle mage must have both combat talent and magic talent, and it is difficult to have one in tens of thousands of people if you want to have this talent. And those battle mages have been circulating for a long time, so they are very conservative and xenophobic. Most of the students there were self-trained, and few had heard of recruiting disciples from outside. The old man noticed Edward's excitement and immediately kindly persuaded him.

"Don't accept outside disciples!?" Edward was stunned, he wouldn't be happy after all the hard work.

"It's not that you don't take it, it's that you collect very little. Forget it, I'll tell you about the other colleges. The old man shook his head and said.

"Oh." As soon as you hear it, it's easy to do. Edward has already started, and believes that even if the battle mages are conservative, they will definitely not accept their talents there.

"The fourth place is the Haijiram School of Magic and Magic, which is the territory of the Spiritual Oracle School among the four ancient mage schools, by the way, I am afraid you don't even know the Spiritual Oracle School. In layman's terms, summoners fight by summoning elemental creatures and various magicians. Their strength is mainly based on luck, and last year's academy competition, a student of the Spirit Oracle School summoned a baby black dragon, and won the game in a daze. Later, my luck ran out, and I summoned a slime in the next game, but I finally managed to finish fourth. The old man said with a laugh.

"Oh yes, Hajram's magic potions are pretty good, and you can make a lot of money if you join there and become a magic apothecary. Magic scrolls like our Fiada are the hallmarks of our city. The old man kindly reminded.

"The fifth place is the Oranris City School of Magic, which is also a school of construction of the four ancient mage schools, oh yes, they are puppeteers, who specialize in making those puppet golems. But I don't recommend you go there, you look very lively, the puppet mages there are like nerds, they spend all day in the Golem factory, especially girls who do that all day. ”

"The sixth and seventh are the two new cities, both of which are controlled by the dwarves. One was Sikkim, who specialized in making magic machines, and they made those weird things powerful, but I always thought they were cheating. The organizing committee of the competition should limit them. The second is Johra, a city near the sea, and those gnomes are really strong in business, and I heard that the largest chambers of commerce in Johra are opened by these gnomes. Johra Academy doesn't have much of a special feature, that is, those goblins are willing to spend money, and their magical equipment is the best. It's just a matter of throwing money. The old man seemed to be very ashamed of this behavior, but there was an expression of envy on his face.

"Oh, by the way, it's almost time to get to the city, where are you going? Why don't you send you to the testing center to test your magical talents? The old man suggested.

"It's not a rush now, can grandpa take us around the city first when you come for the first time?" Edward wondered if he should tell him that he was already a full-fledged mage.

"Well, the library, the magic academy, and the mage tower are all great places to visit." Edward's proposal would make the old man a lot more money, so he readily agreed. (To be continued.) )
