President Wood. A middle-aged magician leaned over and reminded, "It's almost time." ”

"Good. President Wood glanced at Jimmy Gaunt again and sighed helplessly, "Let's get started." ”

With the loud announcement of the president of the Magic Association, Wood, the first round of qualifiers for the Truth Conference has officially begun.

The number of participants in this year's Truth Conference has reached an unprecedented 2,000!

Not to mention President Wood, even his junior brother, the Royal Court Holy Magister Andrew Highey, was full of emotion at the grand occasion in front of him.

Although Andrew has always been full of doubts about his brother Wood's succession to the chairmanship, there is no doubt that the fact that so many young magicians participating in the competition in front of him is the result of the growing strength of the Magic Guild, and it is also a proof that the way of truth is growing more and more prosperous.

The atmosphere was solemn.

After a short period of hustle, the crowd held their breath and looked solemn, and under the guidance of the instructor at the venue, they entered the examination room and sat in the corresponding seats in turn according to their numbers and names.

Wu Hui naturally followed.

"Tut, look at this atmosphere, it really feels like the college entrance examination that year. ”

Wu Hui secretly sighed, not only is the atmosphere now like his college entrance examination back then, but even the expressions of these young magicians are also the same as the college entrance examination candidates when he was on Earth.

In fact, Wu Hui didn't know that for many contestants, participating in the Truth Conference was not only because of the generous prizes after winning and the superior reward of being personally guided by any director of the association, but also an opportunity to really get ahead.

To be able to perform well at such a conference is equivalent to proving yourself in front of the world.

Once there is any outstanding performance, or is favored by some big people, then the future will definitely rise to the top and soar.

Of course, none of this matters to Wu Hui, he has only one purpose, and that is to get the first place in the conference to reward the rock soul, that is, the heart of the earth!

"Big brother, come on!"

"Brother Wu Hui, I wish you all the best. ”

Blake and Daniel, who participated together, greeted Wu Hui in the front left and right back respectively, and then sat in their seats. Another colleague who participated in the competition, Cody, was even farther away, he was in the front row on the right, and he also waved his hand to Wu Hui and others at this time, which was regarded as a blessing.

Wu Hui's position was at the back of the middle, and after nodding politely to a few of his companions, he sat down in his seat with great interest.

"It's a nice place here, oh, and a crystal ball......

Being able to relive the feeling of the college entrance examination that year, Wu Hui was in a good mood, and he looked around for a long time.

Now this examination room is located on the shore of the beautiful Xingyue Lake, and the rostrum is directly in front of it.

It can be seen that this place was originally supposed to be a green meadow, but now it has been decorated by the staff into a very chic temporary examination room.

In the examination room, each contestant has a separate table and chair seat, and in front of each contestant, a transparent crystal ball with a pedestal is placed.

This is a tool for contestants to review and answer questions, and the operation is very simple, even ordinary people who do not have much magic inheritance can easily use it. If you want to make an analogy, then in Wu Hui's eyes, this kind of thing is like the tablet he used to use on the earth, which can be controlled by just swiping and pulling with his hands.

But the only drawback is that this thing seems to only be used to answer questions, and it can't be used to do some weird things.

"Ahem, be quiet, please be quiet!"

Not long after he sat down, a calm and powerful light cough was transmitted from the direction of the rostrum.

Many contestants at the scene raised their eyes one after another.

I saw a middle-aged magician wearing a black magic robe and a white beard, and he had already walked to the front of the examination room at some point.

"Young contestants, I am the permanent director of the association and the host of this Truth Conference, Magister Wilder!"

The host, Wilder, still used his calm and powerful voice to make a brief self-introduction, and then pointed to the calm Xingyue Lake.

As he guided everyone to see, a bright blue gorgeous magic array immediately appeared on the surface of Xingyue Lake.

Soon, a curtain wall composed of lake water slowly rose from this magic array.

The host Wild explained in a timely manner with amplification magic: "The preliminaries of this truth conference are as usual, using a question bank point system, and the names of the top 100 contestants will be displayed on the curtain wall of this water system. ”

"When the exam time ends, the top 100 contestants will advance to the next round, and the rest of the contestants will be eliminated!"

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere at the scene instantly became tense. The vast majority of the contestants had solemn faces on their faces.

In the preliminaries alone, 1,900 people had to be eliminated from 2,000 people, and only 100 people could advance in the end, this kind of competitive pressure was much more stringent than Wu Hui's college entrance examination that year, and it was no wonder that these contestants were so nervous.

However, the host Wild seems to have become accustomed to these reactions, and he continued to use his powerful voice to introduce: "The difficulty of the exam questions is still divided into three categories: elementary, intermediate and high, and the corresponding scores are 1, 3 and 5 points respectively, and the questions that you don't know can be skipped." ”

"Remember, this qualifier is a points-based tournament and the exam is a magic month. "Speaking of a magic moon, the hourglass was placed upside down on the rostrum.

At the same time, Wild once again used amplification magic to face the audience, loudly announcing: "The preliminaries begin!"

Suddenly, the whole venue fell silent.

The vast majority of the contestants almost all fell in front of the crystal ball at the same moment.

The crystal ball began to glow with a gentle and bright magical light, and the contestants frowned, their expressions focused, and their eyes were almost straight as they stared at the crystal ball that began to appear on the exam.

Looking at their expressions, it was as if they were left behind by others as long as they were even a second slower.

"It's kind of interesting. Wu Hui still looked around with great interest, looking at the nervous and solemn expressions of the contestants around him, he couldn't help but think of the scene when he took the college entrance examination that year.

Retracting his gaze, Wu Hui raised his hand and rubbed the quaint ring on his finger, full of confidence.

Speaking of which, as an outsider from Earth, he was actually very curious about what kind of exam questions would come out of this world that admired magic and vindictive spirit to test the results of cultivators.

And in a limited time, you can accumulate points by brushing questions indefinitely, which is really very different from the exams on the earth.

So with curiosity, Wu Hui looked down at the crystal ball in front of him.

"Poof, what the hell is this?"

This didn't matter, and it almost didn't let him fall headlong in front of the crystal ball.

The title that appears on the crystal ball now reads: "There were several chickens and rabbits, kept in the same cage, counting from above, with 35 heads, and counting from below, with 94 legs." Q: How many chickens and rabbits are in each cage?"

This, isn't this the classic topic of the Earth Huaxia Country, the classic topic of the Primary School Olympiad, the chicken and the rabbit in the same cage?

As a person who had been educated in the exam, Wu Hui was simply dumbfounded, and he was petrified on the spot.

Of course, even if he was petrified on the spot, he clearly remembered that there were many solutions to this problem, the most classic of which was the foot-lifting method, the hypothetical method, and the equation method.

But now as a qualifier for the Truth Conference, shouldn't the exam questions be related to magic?

Just when Wu Hui was surprised, a young magician who was counting with his hands folded had been tortured by chickens and rabbits in the same cage and went crazy.

I don't know if he is more unlucky, the first question is the same as Wu Hui, and he drew the classic chicken and rabbit in the same cage.

This young magician, who looked like he was not from a bad background, broke out in a cold sweat when he looked at the question, he sat in his seat, scratched his ears and cheeks anxiously, and counted his hands for a long time, and finally his mentality completely collapsed.

"Ahhh

He tugged at his hair and wailed on his back, "What the hell is this? We studied magic, so why should we care about how many rabbits and chickens are in the cage?"

The silence of the scene was immediately broken by his screams.

Many contestants who drew similar questions cast a look of deep approval at him.

Indeed, the questions of this qualifier are too strange and difficult!

However, as soon as the exam began, there was such a commotion, and the chairman of the rostrum, Wood, the Holy Demon Mentor Andrew, and the "Ice Calamity" Iswell, all frowned slightly.

Under the stands, the host Wilde understood and immediately waved one hand and drove away: "The examination of the Truth Conference is sacred, and it cannot be interfered with!"

Before the words fell, the two magic puppets standing on both sides of the examination room, like knights' armor, immediately took heavy steps, and dragged the complaining young magician out of the examination room in three or five strokes, disqualifying him from the preliminaries.

"I repeat again, respect the rules of the exam and abide by the discipline of the examination room, otherwise you will be disqualified from the preliminaries!"

The presenter, Wild, used amplification magic to give a stern warning to all the candidates, and his expression was full of unquestionable majesty.

The scene quickly quieted down, and even if many contestants had more doubts and puzzles in their hearts, they didn't dare to talk about it at this time, so they had to honestly bury their heads in the question.

President Wood saw this, slowly got up, and through amplification magic, spread his calm and powerful voice throughout the room: "Young contestants, magic is the great voyage to the truth, magic is the noble knowledge that explores the essence of all things, and magic is the way and method to grasp the true meaning of the world!"

"These questions seem to have nothing to do with magic, but in fact, each question is inseparable from the exploration and use of magic!"

"If you can't even answer such a simple question, and don't even want to think, then how can you become a true great magician in the future, and how can you become a pioneer for those who come after you on the way to the truth?"

The words seemed to be ignited instantly, and the blood in the hearts of all the candidates on the scene was enthusiastic.

The contestants' eyes lit up and they seemed to have a deep understanding.

The scene soon fell silent, and they no longer complained, but looked at the exam questions in front of them very seriously.

As President Wood said, magic is the path to truth, full of thorns and bumps, and if they can't solve even the problems in front of them, what capital do they have to become a true great magician?

The atmosphere was high, and President Wood sat back in his seat satisfied, patiently awaiting the appearance of outstanding students.

Ice Scourge Iswell, who was sitting next to him, nodded slightly, acknowledging the test policy of President Wood's qualifiers.

On the other side of the neighborhood, the palace Holy Demon Master Andrew's eyes changed, and he agreed with President Wood's words just now, but the corners of his mouth were still full of banter.

In his opinion, more than ninety percent of the many contestants on the scene are mediocre talents who are not in the stream, and it is difficult to achieve anything in this life. Magic, on the other hand, is a higher talent for the elite to learn, and President Wood's idea of teaching nothing but is a foolish waste of time.

"Puff puff!"

Time passed little by little, and the magic water curtain rising on the surface of Xingyue Lake finally flipped for the first time.

As the waves surged, the names of the contestants appeared one after another on the water curtain.

The first place was Ben Stuart, a genius from the School of Magic directly under the Holy Land, and a disciple of President Wood.

The appearance of his name seems to have been expected by many people. However, there are still many academy members and beautiful girls outside the stadium, looking excited and happy, if it weren't for the preliminaries, no noise, these spectators outside the stadium would probably have cheered loudly.

Not long after, the second place also appeared at the top of the water curtain, which was none other than Charles Springhall, the third prince of the empire, from the imperial royal family, the disciple of the palace holy demon mentor Andrew.

The appearance of his name also aroused the excitement of many supporters and girls, and there was only a one-point difference between him and Stuart, which was comparable at the beginning of the preliminaries.

Soon the name of Karen Glacier, a disciple of Iswell of the Northland Sea Clan and a disciple of Ice Calamity, also appeared, and he followed in third place.

The reason for the third place seems to be that he was a little uncomfortable with the Magic Association's standard crystal ball at first, and his movements were a little slower, but again, it was only a point difference.

From the current point of view, it can be determined that his strength is on par with the top two talents.

"Awesome!"

"Look at these three, they're amazing!"

"It's only been less than a quarter of an hour before the opening one-third of the game, and it has achieved such a high score, which is unprecedented!"

The crowds of spectators outside the venue were discussing one by one, and every pair of eyes were paying close attention to the rankings on the water curtain.

Although they had already expected that the top three would be firmly occupied by these three, the pride of heaven who had been taught by the master. But watching the battle between the three heroes of heaven is more exciting than watching the other players.

Even many of the contestants in the stadium are paying close attention to the ranking trends of the three geniuses.

"Hehe, His Royal Highness the Third Prince is really outstanding, and there is only a difference between him and Stuart. ”

"Stuart is indeed a good seedling, but His Royal Highness the prince has not really made any efforts, and I believe that he will be the first to refresh the ranking in the next round. ”

"Speaking of rankings, my beloved apprentice Karen Glacier is just a little slower at the beginning. The next time the rankings are refreshed, don't be too surprised by the two of you. ”

On the podium, President Wood, Andrew, and Iswell were all calm and light-hearted, and they were also full of confidence in their beloved disciples.

It's just that between the three of them, Jimmy Gangter, who was also sitting on the rostrum, didn't say a word, and sat silently in his seat, his old face turned red.

The rankings of the top 100 on the water curtain have all appeared, and Jimmy Gunter Tsai looked at it carefully three times, but he didn't see Wu Hui's name.

The worst thing is that after careful observation, Jimmy Gunter found that Wu Hui's bastard boy hadn't even done a single question so far!

What kind of joke is this? It's just going to kill him!

Wu Hui, Wu Hui, everyone is doing things for the great me. Don't kill my old Jimmy.
