At the beginning of January each year, the Royal Academy of Magic of the Empire begins to test the magical talent of children who have reached the age of twelve in the Imperial Capital and the surrounding area, and even the entire Middle Realm.

The total population of the five realms of the Sassen Empire exceeded 35 million, and the population of the middle realm was almost 8 million, of which there were about 2 million children under the age of 14, and about 150,000 children under the age of twelve.

In this huge group, in addition to Xia Lin's group of children who are almost one in a thousand or even one in a thousand, there are naturally many existences whose qualifications are only one or two levels lower than them, but they are also screened out.

For example, it took almost fifty-three days after Xia Lin came into contact with meditation to successfully release his spiritual power and become a traditional mage apprentice, and it would take about two to three months for those who failed to reach Xia Lin's level.

In the past, when the Northern Military only needed so many sergeant students every year, these children would naturally be screened out, but now with the needs of Xia Lin's New Leaf Chamber of Commerce, then these children have once again been given the opportunity to become mages.

"Biller Yincasis, the third ring of talent, addresses Blackwall Avenue in Amphelon......

Monica Barbie, the third ring of talent, lives at Chaplin Street, Amplon City......

Xia Lin carefully looked through these detailed materials, and suddenly realized that one of the powerful things about the Mage Guild was that in this era when even the royal family was unable to complete the population count, the Mage Guild was able to organize so many literate grassroots personnel every year to complete the registration of the information of these school-age children.

In Xia Lin's view, this information is not only useful in the selection of graduate candidates, but also in civil affairs.

However, one yard is one yard, and now he still has to determine the candidate for graduate school first, after reading these stacks of materials, Xia Lin first raised his head and raised the doubts that he had been in his heart for a long time:

"Dean Manan, what is the basis for determining the number of talent rings on these materials? How does this work?"

"Is this it? Quite simply, hundreds of years ago, Archmage Hagnes Vernardo struggled with the lack of certainty about the exact qualifications of his apprentices, so he and his friend Master Geos Brooke researched the Apprentice Crystal Ball that we use today.

Drawing the subject's psychic power into the crystal ball by some means activates a specially modified secondary phantom spell within the crystal ball, which generates an illusion image based on the amount of psychic power input into the crystal ball.

Therefore, the evaluation of the spiritual power qualification of you sergeants is determined according to the number of rings generated in the apprentice's crystal ball.

For example, your spiritual power qualification is the fifth ring, and the minimum requirement for the spiritual power qualification for the students admitted by our Royal Academy of Magic every year is the fourth ring or the third ring."

Dean Manan explained to Xia Lin freely, and also solved another doubt that Xia Lin had accumulated in his heart for a long time, that is, the spiritual power of the mages can be released, so whether the spiritual power of ordinary people can be released.

….

It turns out that through a certain means, the spiritual power of ordinary people can also be put into the crystal ball, so that the scope of application of many magic items that can only be used by mages has been expanded a lot, realizing this, Xia Lin suddenly felt a little inspiration, but he put these inspirations aside for the time being, and continued to ask:

"In this way, the number of rings of spiritual power qualification is related to the time it takes for us to meditate and break through to the level of spiritual power release? The higher the number of rings, the better the spiritual power qualification, so the faster you can release your spiritual power when meditating?"

"That's right, that's the case in general, generally speaking, it only takes about a month for a top-qualified mage apprentice in the Sixth Ring to meditate to reach the apprentice level, the Fifth Ring takes almost two months, and the Fourth and Third Rings take about three months.

However, the spiritual power qualification does not represent the later achievements of the mage apprentices, at most it means that they have spiritual power far beyond ordinary people from the beginning, so it is easier to release their spiritual power.

For example, if you pour tea into this teacup that represents spiritual power, your meditation process is to keep shaking the teacup.

Every shake that pours out the tea in this teacup means that your mental power is successfully released, and in the process, it is undoubtedly easier to pour out the cup with more tea poured at the beginning."

Dean Manan nodded, took the pottery cup and water in his hand and said metaphorically on the coffee table, this image metaphor also made Xia Lin understand what meditation is all about.

At the same time, he probably understood why he was able to have the spiritual power qualification of up to the five rings, just like the protagonist in the soul piercing he had seen in the past, his soul may have been the weight of two people, so his innate spiritual power is much higher than that of ordinary people.

After witnessing the existence of the bone dragon with his own eyes and knowing that there is still a group of necromancers called "black magicians" in this world, Xia Lin's original materialistic concept has evolved again, at least he has almost accepted the existence of souls, gods and other mysterious and objective possibilities in his heart.

"In that case, then ask Dean Manan to arrange for all these children whose spiritual power qualifications are above the second ring to enroll! It should be three hundred and twenty-seven!"

Xia Lin sorted out the materials he had finished reading and put them on the coffee table and said to Dean Manan.

"Three hundred and twenty-seven? You need so many low-ring mages?"

The number of Xia Lin's requirements has exceeded the enrollment of the Royal Academy of Magic this year by almost two times, and this is still the case that the Royal Academy of Magic has been covered by Xia Lin a lot of wool this year, and the number of non-commissioned officers and students needs to be replenished has been expanded, Dean Manan couldn't help but ask in surprise.

"Of course, Dean Manan, in addition to the fact that my research institute needs so many researchers, the several Xinglan primary schools I have established also need enough teachers to teach those ordinary children.

I hope that Dean Manan will select the more gifted 50 of them to be cultivated according to the normal academy education plan, and the remaining children will contact me when they have developed their spiritual powers, and I will arrange them to study another system of knowledge in Xinglan Primary School."

Xia Lin's idea was something he had considered a long time ago, as long as a person with mage talent successfully released his spiritual power to become a mage apprentice, their intelligence seemed to have a wonderful effect with mental power, making the mage apprentice's memory, comprehension, logical thinking ability, and analysis ability improve in all aspects, and because of this, there were few fools in the mage group.

In this case, Xia Lin only needs to set up a special class to cramm the five-year textbooks of primary school into the minds of these "enlightened" mage apprentices as before, and he can easily obtain a group of teachers and technicians who are familiar with the scientific knowledge system, which can be described as an excellent shortcut to obtain talents.
