It was late at night, and the musicians who had played all night were still cheering, but the singing and music were inevitably showing fatigue. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Even if the firewood is added again and again, the bonfire burns more vigorously, even if the gluttonous food is inexhaustible, even if everyone is dressed in fine clothes and surrounded by beautiful women.

On the banks of the St. Francis River on a midsummer night, there is never the atmosphere of a carnival.

The young people around the campfire were more like they were bored, and occasionally some people would quickly return to the graceful posture of the Helians in the astonished eyes of the surroundings by talking nonsense drunkenly.

And the laughter and laughter that came from the bustling city across a few streets from time to time seemed to be the voice of another world.

Perhaps, the well-dressed people of Hailian don't need any carnival at all, and this annual carnival should only belong to those who are poor.

In such a situation, the shortest night of the year also seems so long.

And when there was a faint glimmer of light in the eastern sky, the exclamations of the crowd were not so much a celebration of the arrival of the light as a celebration of the end of the boring night.

Eventually, the campfire grew cold, and the crowd dispersed.

At Donner's estate, Bran took the carriage and left, leaving Cross behind.

"I guessed you had something to say to me. He had not slept all night, but there was no sleepiness on his face, and he stood tall and handsome, matching the splendid carriage beside him.

"Really, what do you think I'm going to tell you?" asked Donner, interested.

Cross smiled slightly, "We've met before, but you don't remember." ”

Donner nodded, and the other party's words, which seemed to have nothing to do with the question, actually proved that he already knew what he was going to ask.

"Is it in the Sacred Courtyard of Fire?" he asked.

"That's right. Cross replied.

"But that doesn't answer my question......" Donner laughed.

"Hmm...... I don't think it's worth it for you. "Cross told a lie, and the real reason was not.

Donner frowned slightly, pondering the meaning of the other party's words.

Seeing him like this, Cross hesitated for a moment, and then said lightly: "Maybe I smelled the same kind of smell on you......"

"Kind?" said Donner, shocked.

Cross laughed, he knew that the other party had misunderstood him: "You're a genius, aren't you?"

When Donner heard this, he smiled with relief. That's right, Kroos is a genius, and he really has that kind of heroic feelings for himself.

"Don't you think it's worth it to see a fellow of the same kind who is willing to fall like this?" he asked with a smile.

"Before I came over, it was a little," Cross shrugged, "though, now I'm a little skeptical of my own judgment." ”

Donner shook his head indifferently and asked, "When are you going back to the Tempest Courtyard?"

"About ten days. Cross replied cheerfully.

"Ten days...... Donner suddenly raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Then before you go back, do me a favor." ”

......

Donner slept all morning, hastily ate lunch, and went to the Magic Array Association.

After seeing Selene, he didn't wait for the other party to speak, and asked directly, "Is Master Boeon here?"

"Do you agree to be his student?" Selene was surprised.

Donner was hesitating how to answer, and Selene had already stood up from behind the desk: "I'll call him for you......"

It wasn't long before she brought Master Burgon over.

The old master of the magic array walked much faster than usual, and his hands and feet barely trembled slightly.

"Figured it out?" he asked Donner with a smile.

"Master Boegen......" Donner's face was a little embarrassed, "I'm here to apply for promotion." ”

"Advance?" Mage Boeon glanced at Selene, who panicked.

"Oh, blame me for not making it clear to Selene," Donner explained, "yes, I didn't complete forty third-level circles...... In fact, I don't think there's any need for that. ”

"Not necessary?" said Master Boegon with a look of surprise.

"Yes, there's no need to waste that time. Donner replied.

Only then did Master Boeon understand what Donner meant, and his face immediately turned cold: "This is not in accordance with the rules. ”

"I don't think this rule is reasonable. Donner replied.

"You...... You're too arrogant!" Mage Boegen's anger was already a little angry.

"Can you tell me, Master Boegen, what is the rationale for this rule, and why do you need to complete those circles in order to apply for advancement?"

"If this condition is not set, any person can apply for promotion, can these people in the association be busy?" Master Bo Geng asked coldly.

"My lord, as far as I know, you can't pass a test, and you can't apply again for ten years. So, how many people do you think will try their luck when they are not sure at all?And, even if these conditions are met, the certainty of the applicant for promotion will be even greater?" Donner did not hold back at all: "The answer is obvious, isn't it? Don't you see it yet? The purpose of the association in the first place to set this condition is no longer meaningful and outdated. ”

"The original purpose?" said Master Boegen, angrily, "What was the original purpose?"

"When the Magic Array Association was established, there was no magic workshop, and the reason why the association had such a provision was only to ensure the production of low-level magic circles. But now, there is no longer such a need, and you are still sticking to the rules, don't you think it's ridiculous?" Donner knew what kind of person Master Boeon was, and it was impossible to convince him without a little radical method.

"You...... You ......" Master Boeon was momentarily angry, but he couldn't refute it.

"My lord, if I don't pass the test, I won't be able to apply for promotion for ten years, do you think I'll be joking with my time?" asked Donner again.

Master Boggen's face was extremely ugly, he thought that the other party had figured it out when he came over today, and understood that it was impossible to overcome all the difficulties with his wisdom alone. Unexpectedly, he was so bold that not only did he not have the slightest humility, but he even dared to flout the rules of the association that had been circulated for tens of thousands of years.

Even if it is out of love, it is necessary to teach him a lesson in order not to lose his talent in arrogance.

Thinking of this, Master Bo Geng said coldly, "Okay...... I can agree to your application, but since you want the association to make an exception, the association will also evaluate you with the strictest standards, no problem, right?"

"No problem. Donner nodded, and replied with a relaxed expression.

"Young Master John......" Selene looked at Donner in disbelief, she couldn't believe that this always well-informed Young Master Hellian didn't see Master Burgon's intentions - no matter how perfect he was, the guild would not let him pass the test.
