At First University, the first thing that comes to mind when people mention 'wands' is not the long, slender wooden stick that can help wizards unleash magic. Rather, it is a student club with a long history and a high reputation, and the critical publication sponsored by this club.

The club 'Magic Wand' was founded by Macy Wood, president of the student council of First University for more than 100 years.

From the very beginning, the club has adhered to the principles of 'silence' and 'neutrality', never expressing an opinion on any incident in the school, nor choosing a side in any dispute in the school.

There is no doubt that this choice is not beneficial to the growth of the community - as far as an organization is concerned, having a clear stance is at the heart of the organization's development. Because people are easily swayed by a certain point of view, and it is easy to lean towards the point of view that they like. And an organization without a point of view will only be a mess of scattered sand and have no cohesion.

Therefore, the 'magic wand', which is accustomed to being silent on the affairs of the HKCSS, is hardly attractive to the energetic young wizards in the school. Students prefer to chase clubs with loud slogans and decisive actions.

But from another point of view, a 'neutral' stance is a fitting choice for a wand.

On the one hand, the various large and small clubs with a long history in the First University are intertwined, especially the two major clubs headed by the 'Divine Will' of Jiuyou College and the 'Blood Friends Association' of Alpha College, which control a large part of the school's outstanding students, which leads them to take a suppressive posture against any late-developing clubs that covet their status.

To put it simply, any society that has the potential to develop into a third giant will be sniped by the 'will' and the 'blood friend'. This is the concept of monopoly and hegemony.

Therefore, the wand chose a low-key development strategy, which well avoided the risk of being suppressed.

On the other hand, it is precisely because there are so many clubs with 'positions' and 'tendencies' on the campus of Dai-ichi University that it is difficult for people to trust people from other clubs to speak from a fair point of view. Even the federation of associations, which is the glue of many associations, has no way to reduce everyone's prejudice. In many cases, the mediation meeting held by the HKCSS is more like a large-scale quarrel.

The 'wand' chose neutrality, and naturally won 'justice'. Public opinion has given this community an objective stance by nature. This makes it easy for the 'wand' to speak to be recognized by the vast majority of students.

Because of this, after a long period of investigation, the Joint Conference of Professors of the First University handed over the nomination, preliminary review and final release of the "Arcana" to the 'magic wand', and the Joint Conference of Professors only retained the review and final review of the "Arcana" list. The official rhetoric was to better train the students' practical skills, but privately, many students thought that the professors were just impatient to be blocked by students in the office building to beg for justice after the annual release of "Arcana", so they threw the hot potato out.

The wand has a good grip on this hot artichoke.

They even started a broader critical journal based on the Arcana, which was named after the Society.

This is "The Wand", which is famous in the first university and even in the wizarding world.

In addition to the list of "Arcana" published in January every year, "Wand" will also regularly publish a series of hunting-related ratings such as the rating of the first university hunting team, the rating of the hunter, the rating of the hunting team manager, etc., in addition, including alchemy, talismans, formations, magic scripts, divination, potions, animal taming and other different specialties, all have a place in "Wand".

"Magic Wand" will not only push the latest discoveries and progress in the above professions in a timely manner, but also push some outstanding professionals from time to time, and invite authoritative figures in related fields to comment.

Due to the rigorous and neutral stance of the journal, many large and small institutions, including the Wizarding Alliance Rank Review Committee, the First University Professors' Joint Conference, and the First University Student Union, have included "Wand" in the index column in recognition of its professionalism.

Although Zheng Qing only remembered the list of "Arkana" released every New Year's Day after being reminded by Dr. Xiao Da, he was no stranger to the "wand" - whether it was the "wand" of the society or the "wand" of the journal.

Zheng Qing is familiar with the club's 'magic wand', or because of the invitation turmoil at the beginning of the school year.

Because of their reputation, many first-year students searched for a way to join the Wand club at the beginning of the school year, but they all came back in vain.

It wasn't until later that Zheng Qing learned that, unlike other large and small student clubs at First University, the 'Magic Wand' had never had a tradition of open recruitment. Every year when school starts in September, they don't even give out invitations to any of the students.

It is said that the number of members of the wand is fixed throughout. And every member of the wand is directly recommended by the professor to join. Only when a senior student graduates out of school and a place is vacated will the junior students have the opportunity to fill in.

Rumors are rampant, making the truth even more confusing.

The strict recruitment system and mysterious and low-key style have made this already famous club more and more eye-catching over the years. So much so that many students believe that if it were not for the magic wand that always adhered to the principle of 'low-key, pragmatic and strict neutrality', then the community power of First University would definitely not be a pattern of two heroes competing for hegemony, but would have become a three-country division.

As for Zheng Qing's relationship with the journal "Magic Wand", it is related to his amazing performance after Fu Zheng class at the beginning of the school year.

Because he successfully tacitly found all the basic talismans in the thorough test of the chapter talisman class, "The Magic Wand" once included him in the new star of the talisman page for a brief introduction - Xin Fatzi once ridiculed Zheng Qing for a week because of this matter.

Later, after Zheng Qing got the Merlin Medal, "Magic Wand" also contacted him and tried to do an exclusive interview, but because Zheng Qing had a grudge against that medal and he didn't like to show his face, he finally declined the invitation of "Magic Wand".

At this moment, hearing the partners of the Sin Hunting Team re-mention this familiar and unfamiliar term, Zheng Qing's spirit couldn't help but be a little trance-like.

It was only then that he suddenly realized that it had been a long time since he had come to this wizarding university. It had been nearly half a year since he had first heard the terms 'wand' and 'arcana'.

Time flies so fast.

"Wow, who is this?!" A slightly exaggerated voice sounded in Zheng Qing's ears, interrupting his emotion: "Isn't this the Xiangrui classmate who earned us more than forty jade coins with five golden beans last time!"

Zheng Qing came back to his senses, and a pair of familiar blue-green eyes appeared in his sight.

John Nevelle Jr. held his notebook and betting ticket, and greeted several young hunters of the Sin Hunting Team with great interest, especially focusing on Xiao Xiao: "How about it, Doctor, do you want to buy a few more games today?"
