Chapter 223: This World Is Too Boring

Faling Tower, the moment Duke walked out of the testing room, utterly cheered.

A new record was born, a genius arcane mage promoted from 1 ring to 2 rings at the fastest speed, declaring that genius is not a meteor flashing, but born like a rising sun.

"I think there should be a bell-ringing ceremony." Chief Director Oruqi announced loudly.

In fact, there is no matching bell ringing ceremony for the promotion of the arcane mage, and the bell ringing ceremony is specially set up for the new arcane mage.

But Duke's promotion this time broke the record of the Seven Towers Federation.

Not one record, but two.

"According to the information, the youngest 2-ring mage in the Seven Towers Federation is twenty-two years old." Joanna read the information in her hand, "This 2-Ring Arcane Mage, who naturally opened the spiritual sea at the age of thirteen, was promoted to Arcane Master at the age of fifteen, and was promoted to the 2nd Ring at the age of twenty-two, and finally successfully passed away as the 7-Ring Morning Star Arcane Master. ”

At the age of thirteen, he opened the spiritual sea, and at the age of fifteen, he was promoted to arcane mage.

Even Duke had to exclaim a genius when he heard it, but the record of this genius was broken by Duke after all.

And at this moment, when everyone looked at Duke, their eyes had changed.

The former 7-Ring Morning Star Arcane Mentor was promoted to 2 Rings at the age of 22, but now Duke is promoted to 2 Rings at the age of 19, does it mean that Duke's potential even surpasses the 7 Rings?

There is no way to know.

After all, there are too many constraints in the cultivation of spiritual mysteries, and it is not by relying on talent and understanding that you can go on a rampage and have a smooth road all the way.

Too many dazzling geniuses, who are pinned on high hopes, only to stop at a certain stage and eventually eclipsed.

It can only be said that Duke has infinite potential, but whether it can be realized, no one can be sure, and it will take time to test.

"Two records, belonging to our Shenjiao City Faling Pagoda, I think the chief director's proposal is very good, this is worth a bell ringing ceremony." Director Filipbel agreed.

Two directors, Malcieu and BatllΓ³, agreed.

So the bell ringing ceremony was determined.

Everyone took the spiritual ladder and went straight to the top floor.

Climb one more level to the bell room, in which hangs a huge bell, made of spiritual gold, and the clock face is engraved with dense lines.

Some well-informed reporters had already arrived in advance, standing in the corner of the bell ringing room, holding slide cards and notebooks, ready to record this unique bell ringing ceremony.

Chief Director Oluqi stroked his snow-white beard and said excitedly: "Since the establishment of the Seven Towers Federation, countless arcane mages have followed one after another, exploring the path of spiritual arcane, creating a prosperous era for us, and also leaving many valuable records. ”

There was a pause.

He looked at Duke and said in a loud voice: "And today, the record of being the youngest 2-ring arcane mage and the fastest to be promoted to 2-ring arcane mage is broken by our registered arcane master Duke of the Faling Pagoda in Shenjiao City, this is the glory of the Black Jiao River Land, and it is also the glory of all our arcane masters." ”

"Everything is a spiritual guide!"

He handed the metal rod that rang the bell to Duke and continued: "Next, Duke will ring the bell himself, tell the Black Jiaohe Land, and tell all the people of Shenjiao City that an outstanding arcane mage is writing his own legendary poem. ”

The second time the bell rang, the mentality was completely different from the first time the bell was struck.

Holding the metal rod and slowly walking to the clock, Duke turned around and glanced at the smiling faces around him.

There is no nervousness when the bell rings for the first time, and the anxious anticipation for the future.

At this moment, his mentality is calm and excited enough, but more of a thrill of control of the future victory.

This is not destined to be the pinnacle of his life, but just a touch of beautiful scenery in the process of climbing the peak.

The next moment.

The metal rod struck the bell.

Buzz, buzz, buzz......

The bell with the blessing of spiritual power began to spread from the Faling Pagoda, and floated out for dozens of kilometers in a flash, still without the slightest attenuation.

The entire Shenjiao City is shrouded in bells, and every household can hear them.

"Listen, listen, it's the bell, the bell of the Faling Pagoda, there is Master Ao promoted!" The townspeople shouted loudly.

"There is also Master Arcane, our Shenjiao City's spirituality is really strong, and we have been promoted to three Armagers in the past three or four years!"

"Don't forget that there is also a polymath among them, Lord Duke, the son of light!"

"I don't know which arcane master it is this time."

"It's really fortunate that there is another dragon among the people who has been favored by spirituality...... Alas, I am also a spiritual apprentice, but I can't even comprehend the twists and turns of the energy line, and I have been stagnant in the two-star apprenticeship for many years. ”

"I'm going to order a newspaper for tomorrow to get to know this new arcane mage."

For the citizens, the bell-ringing ceremony is a piece of news in life, nothing more than a little material for chatting, and in fact there is no more connection.

But for the employees of Farling Tower, it was very exciting.

Every time the bell rings the ceremony, everyone can get a month of double salary, such a benefit, so that all employees want to ring the bell once a day.

However, it often only takes a few years to knock on it.

"You say, can you still get double the salary for this bell ringing ceremony?" Suddenly, an employee asked worriedly.

"Why can't you take it?"

"But although the bell is ringing, there is no new Master Arcan, it is just a special ceremony arranged by several council members for Lord Duke, which may not meet the rules of the Faling Pagoda."

"That's just as well."

"No, the bell is ringing, you can't get double your salary, right?"

The employees of the department couldn't discuss the reason, so they encouraged the department head: "Mr. Wei Gang, can you help us ask if there is double salary for this bell ringing ceremony." ”

Shook the collar of his clothes.

Wei Gang, the head of the meditation department, took the spirit ladder to the top floor, ready to personally ask the mysterious mage in the tower whether he enjoyed the benefits of a normal ritual in today's bell ringing ceremony.

Entering the bell room, Will just saw that under the big bell, Duke, who had just finished ringing the bell, was being interviewed by reporters and talking eloquently.

"How young!" Will Gang sighed in his heart, "Compared to when I was promoted to Arcane Master a few years ago, my appearance has not changed much, but my bearing has become more and more calm, and my aura has become more and more powerful...... Spiritual guidance allows me to witness the growth of a proud son of heaven. ”

He still vaguely remembers the first time he met Duke.

It was outside the gate of the Faling Tower, and Duke was wandering at the gate, or he led Duke into the Faling Tower: "In this case, I am still the leader of Duke's journey into the spiritual arc." ”

Of course.

He only dared to think about this kind of thought in his mind, and did not dare to express it at all.

After listening to Duke's interview for a while, he found Director Filipbel in the crowd: "Your Excellency, is the welfare of this bell ringing ceremony the same as usual?" ”

Felibel replied indifferently: "Of course, the bell ringing ceremony is to celebrate with the people and share the glory of the Arcane Master. Now Duke's glory can naturally be shared by the entire Faling Pagoda, and the benefits will be distributed as usual. ”

"Then I'll be relieved." Will just breathed a sigh of relief.

Although a "civil servant" like him has a high income and does not lack food and drink, he can have an extra month's salary, who would be too much.

Seeing that the interview was over, Duke and the others had already gone downstairs, and Will Gang also returned to his department to announce the news of the benefits being distributed as usual.

This time.

In the department's office, cheers erupted.

"Long live Lord Duke!"

"May the Spirit always favor you and guide you, Lord Duke!"

"I hope Lord Duke will come to the Faling Pagoda every year to ring the bell, and it would be better if he could come every month!"

"Wouldn't it be better to come every day?"

One young employee said: "I have been working at Faling Pagoda for a short time, but I have been able to ring the bell three times in four years. And twice from Lord Duke, the pride of the sky, and once from Lord Kiria, the lady of heaven, tsk, may the spirit guide the two adults! ”

"The pride of the sky and the lady of the sky, it's really right!"

……

Union Tower, the top floor of the five-tower conference center.

The top buds of the Mystic Vine were trying to grow in the direction of the sun, and around the huge circular conference table, the five Grand Arcans were discussing fiercely.

Keystone Fury, Williams, Elwin, Stephen Wing, and Bernoulli.

"Cuihai City must not be controlled by one family, Bernoulli, your conditions are indeed good, reach an agreement with the black jade horseshoe crab dragon to reduce the losses of the development war, but a black jade horseshoe crab dragon is not enough to make Cuihai City your jurisdiction." Williams said coldly.

Bernoulli responded calmly: "One place and two cities, with the scale of Heijiaohedi, it is difficult to support it, if it can't be quickly pacified, other cities will definitely intervene, and at that time, you may not be able to guarantee the interests in Cuihai City." ”

"Hehe, don't be ashamed, aren't you also from other cities!" Stephen Yihu said politely.

"I'm different." Bernoulli's expression remained unchanged, "I have joined the Black Jiao River Land, and the Orfa Holy City has also approved me to launch a pioneering war, and my interests are actually the same as those of you. ”

"Alright, Stephen, don't shout at Bernoulli in the future." Erwin snorted, "But Bernoulli, you are too greedy for the interests of Cuihai City, and this new city must not be built by you." ”

"Am I still greedy, the spirit mine is dug by you, and in the area under the jurisdiction of Cuihai City, the spirit mine mining rights are all handed over to Xibidi, and I am sincere enough to give up such a big benefit!"

After a pause, Bernoulli said angrily: "I'm willing to give up even the ancient spirit in the spiritual spring, isn't it enough?" ”

"Just an ancient spirit, can you take it out to tell the story?" Stephen Winged Tiger scoffed again.

"Just an Ancient Spirit?" Bernoulli was so angry that he wanted to laugh, "Does your mage tower have ancient spirits, has there ever been an ancient spirit in the Winged Tiger family?" This is the spirit of the ancients, not an elf, as a tower spirit, it is the guarantee of the immortality of the family inheritance! ”

At this time, Keystone Furytao, who had been squinting and allowing several people to quarrel.

Suddenly spoke: "Okay, the Ancient Spirit is what I want, Bernoulli, originally even if Cuihai Valley becomes your fiefdom, this Ancient Spirit will also be taken out." ”

"Why?" Bernoulli was not convinced, "Your Angry Tao family already has one!" ”

"No, this ancient spirit has been given away by me."

"You...... Who did you give it to? Bernoulli continued to ask.

Keystone sneered: "Who did I give it to, do I need to report this to you, I can agree to you to set foot in the Black Jiao River, it is already my benevolence to you, don't get an inch!" ”

"I didn't mean that."

"If not, continue the discussion."

Keystone reverted to his previous attitude, squinting his eyes and letting several 4-ring earth arcane mages quarrel and quarrel.

He is a 5-ring ocean arcane mage, one level higher, or an arcane master, and his strength is the greatest confidence he can watch the show.

"The spirituality of the Black Jiaohe Land is insufficient, and Cuihai City wants to refuse the interference of other cities, and reaching a contract with the Black Jade Horseshoe Crab Dragon is the best way to solve it. I have already established initial trust with the Black Jade Horseshoe Crab Dragon and the entire Black Jade Scorpion Clan! ”

Bernoulli said loudly: "Once the wurm joins, I can guarantee that this is the final link to complete the spirituality of the Black Jiaohe Land!" ”

At the right time.

A melodious, long, steady bell buzzed and pierced through the walls of the Union Tower, causing the top buds of the Mystic Vine to tremble.

When Stephen Yihu heard this, he immediately burst out laughing: "Ridiculous, Bernoulli, didn't you say that the spirituality of the Black Jiaohe Land is insufficient, listen, what is this, it is the bell of the Faling Pagoda, and my Black Jiaohe Land has given birth to another arcane mage!" ”

Williams also laughed: "Duke, Kiriya, plus this new arcane mage, three arcane mages in four years, the spirituality is mine!" ”

The passionate expression on Bernoulli's face was embarrassed, and the frequency of promoting three arcane mages in four years is indeed difficult to describe with a lack of spirituality.

However, he cultivated profoundly, and quickly adjusted: "Compared with other cities, the spirituality of Heijiaohe Land cannot be said to be less. ”

He said sincerely: "But everyone, one place and two cities, once Cuihai City is established, the spirituality of Heijiaohe Land is indeed enough. I reached a contract with the Black Jade Scorpion Clan, and Cuihai City will have a protective barrier, and after a few decades or hundreds of years, Cuihai City will be impregnable. ”

"Don't listen, don't listen." Williams shook his head, "In short, I still want to hunt the black jade horseshoe crab dragon, and the blood feud in Shenjiao City cannot be avenged!" ”

Stephen Winged Tiger nodded, "Yes." ”

Bernoulli looked at Erwin, and Erwin said, "Let's talk about it, don't worry." ”

Keystone Futao, who had watched the play for a long time, stretched out his arm: "Okay, let's discuss it another day, I'll inquire about my Heijiao River, the little guy who has just been promoted." Ouch, I can't get enough of the newcomers, and I can't bear to look at you old faces for a quarter of an hour. ”

So a meeting ended in nothing.

Bernoulli walked out of the conference room, and seemed to be less excited, happily folding his hands behind him, and followed behind Keystone: "Lord Archon, let me also take a look at the newcomers in the Black Jiaohe Land, you won't hide it, right?" ”

"Hehe, whatever you want." Keystone yawned.

Soon, the staff of the United Pagoda received accurate information from the Faling Pagoda, and stepped forward to report: "The Chief Consul, Lord Bernoulli, according to the Faling Pagoda's report, there are no new arcane mages in this bell ringing ceremony. ”

"What?" Keystone frowned.

Bernoulli smiled and narrowed his eyes: "There is no new arcane mage, what is the Faling Pagoda doing when the bell is ringing, this is not a joke." ”

Hearing this, Keystone snorted.

The staff said cautiously: "According to the report, this bell ringing ceremony is hereby held because the 1st Ring Arc Mage and Erudito Duke, who was promoted to the 2nd Ring Arc Mage, broke the record of the youngest 2 Ring Arc Mage in the Seven Towers Federation, and the record for the fastest promotion to 2 Ring Arc Mage. ”

"Hmm!" Now it was Keystone's turn to smile on his face, "Really, Duke this kid has been promoted to 2 Ring Arcane Mage?" ”

"That's exactly what it says in the report."

"Haha, good!" Keystone laughed, "The youngest 2-ring mage, the fastest to be promoted to the 2-ring mage, the record of the entire Seven Towers Federation has been broken by my little doll in the Black Jiaohe Land!" ”

He hugged Bernoulli: "Let's go, I'll take you to meet my young junior in Heijiaohedi, let you see the spirituality of Heijiaohedi, where have they gone!" ”

Bernoulli had an embarrassed smile on his face: "It doesn't have to be, I've seen Duke." ”

"That's not good, we have to go, as the seniors on the spiritual arcane path, we must not hesitate to encourage and support the juniors!" Keystone hugged Bernoulli tightly and turned around and shouted, "Williams, Elwin, Stephen, go together!" ”

Erwin and the three followed, and went together.

……

Penrose Mage Tower.

Penrose is giving Kiria Nutao a lesson, and as a junior of Keystone, Kiria doesn't dare to be perfunctory even if she has no talent.

In class, he was much more serious than Professor Duke.

"This loop structure must be continuously drawn on the premise of fully outlining the spiritual energy, so that the energy line can remain stable." Penrose was operating on the steady-state ring instrument while teaching carefully, "Do you understand?" ”

Kiriya nodded, and shook her head again: "I roughly understand, but there are some things I don't understand, this circuit ......"

Listen to Kiria's question.

Penrose had no expression on his face, but he sighed slightly in his heart: "This is normal teaching, the teacher teaches patiently, and the students ask questions if they don't understand, unlike someone who ......"

Then it occurred to him that when he taught Duke before, he basically casually ordered some questions, ready to leave the questions that Duke didn't understand.

And then.

Duke nodded and said yes.

And occasionally he does ask questions, but they are inferences, and some of the questions make him, as a mentor, unable to answer them in the first place.

Compared with the two, I feel more and more that it is better to teach ordinary people, and I feel relaxed.

Airplanes......

The sound of the bell came from the window, awakening Penrose from his memory, and after listening attentively, he said indifferently: "Don't be affected, let's continue to teach." ”

"Yes, Mentor." Kiria no longer pays attention to the bells.

But it didn't take long for the secretary Lefsky to knock on the door and come in: "Your Excellency, Your Excellency Kiria, sorry for the interruption. ”

"What's the matter?" Penrose asked.

"I just received the news that the bell ringing ceremony was not a new arcane mage, but that His Excellency Duke was promoted to the 2nd ring arcane mage, breaking the record of the Seven Towers Federation, so the bell ringing ceremony was held." Lefsky made a brief explanation.

As soon as these words came out.

But Penrose and Kiria were stunned.

Kyria reacted extremely quickly, and immediately exclaimed: "Has Duke been promoted to the 2nd Ring Arcane Mage, this is too fast, too fast!" ”

Although she was well aware of Duke's talent, two and a half years of promotion to the second ring still made her understand that she couldn't.

Penrose, on the other side, did not have any words, in fact, he had a thousand words in his heart that he wanted to express, but in the end he held it in his throat and could not say a word.

You can only keep reminding yourself.

"Be prepared, maybe ten years, maybe just five years, and a card-making scholar will show up. I have to forge ahead, but I can't be surpassed by a junior in the field of card making...... In addition, my cultivation has to be accelerated, and I have a chance to hit the 4 rings! ”

If he doesn't hit the 4th ring as soon as possible, he is worried that in the near future, even the level will be surpassed by the juniors.

"Mentor, mentor!" Kiriyah called.

Penrose came back to his senses: "What? ”

"Duke is still in the Faling Pagoda, should we go over and see him and hear how he cultivated so quickly and was promoted to the 2nd Ring Arc Mage?" Kiria was already a little impatient.

Penrose thought for a moment and nodded, "It's okay, let's go and have a look." ”

He really wanted to know, how did Duke cultivate to his current realm, and in less than three years, how could the spirit core meet the conditions for evolution?

Wait until after going downstairs.

It was found that Vikas and Liedman, the two assistants, were already waiting at the door, followed by Oriana, Balza, and Bronke.

"You guys?" Penrose frowned.

Vikas smiled: "Mentor, Duke has a game with everyone, he has been promoted to the 2nd ring, and we should go to congratulate him." ”

"yes, yes, mentor, let's just go over and have a look." Oriana also smiled, "After more than two years together, I really miss Duke, just in the past to share the glory that Duke has obtained, and miss the past." ”

Get along for two years.

It is indeed a fate, Penrose frowned: "Then let's go, let's go together." ”

……

"My exclusive meditation method has been cultivated very quickly, I currently have 11 visions, and I have also comprehended the vine of protection and mystery."

in the conference hall.

Duke, who had just finished ringing the bell, was invited here by Chief Director Oruch to exchange experiences after a brief interview with reporters.

When each Armagor is promoted, he will leave a teaching speech at the Faling Tower.

Sharing one's own cultivation experience to help the junior ones learn is the consistent proposition of the Faling Pagoda and the tradition of the Seven Pagoda Federation.

Without sharing, there would be no flourishing spiritual arcane law today.

"I'm very busy during the day, but as soon as I have a little free time, I will build an arcane wonder, and I only need to ensure normal sleep at night, and the rest of the time will be used for cultivation." Duke walked back and forth on stage, "I don't deny that I have some talent, but the sweat of hard work is the ladder of my progress." ”

He suddenly faced the audience and said loudly: "Genius is 1% inspiration, plus 99% sweat!" ”

There was a bang, applause.

Hard work is always worth affirming.

Waiting for the applause to subside, Duke smiled slightly: "Of course, it is undeniable that I am still a 2-ring elf envoy, and I have a little elf." Every time I practice, I will merge with the elves and enter the elf form, which will greatly improve my cultivation efficiency. ”

Duke's face was not red or breathless, and he put Xiaoyi's reluctance to practice day and night on himself.

Xiaoyi is a part of him, and Xiaoyi's is naturally his.

Of course.

He also knew that his cultivation experience was of no help to the latecomers, and it was not poisonous, but it was definitely not chicken soup.

So I quickly finished sharing my cultivation experience, and seeing that it was still early, it was obvious that the speech could not be so short.

Duke spun around the stage.

Then his expression gradually changed from the previous comfortable to solemn, as if something big news was brewing. Eyes focused on his face, and everyone couldn't help but lift their spirits.

At this time, the door to the conference room was pushed open.

A group of gray-haired elderly people entered the conference room with a group of entourage, which quickly caused a commotion in the conference room.

Even Duke couldn't help but be surprised.

The people who came were several great mages from Shenjiao City, as well as Bernoulli from Angry Horn City, each of whom was a big man who would stomp his feet and would earthquakeβ€”he would really be an earthquake.

Oruqi, who stood up to greet him, got a look in the eyes of Keystone Fury.

He immediately shouted loudly: "Everyone is quiet, quiet, and patiently listen to Duke share his cultivation insights...... Duke, don't be disturbed by the audience, everyone is here to listen to your speech, you can say whatever you want, don't have any scruples. ”

However, it seems to be getting some signal.

As soon as Keystone and other bigwigs entered the door, before Oruch could finish his words, another group of people pushed the door in, and it was Penrose who came in with a few students, and another 3-ring arcane mage, Scott Yihu, and Sanfiz and other students.

Then a few more 3-ring mages came over with their students.

Seeing this, Oruqi bared his teeth, simply walked to the side of Keystone and the others, and asked in a low voice: "Lord Consul, why don't you wait for a while, and while there is still time, you can send invitations to each mage tower." ”

"It's okay, everyone has a lot of time anyway, it's not worth it." Keystone happily agreed.

The arcane mage has a long lifespan, and he is not in a hurry to cultivate and study, so it doesn't matter if he delays for half a day, at least for Keystone.

So.

I waited for an hour for this sharing speech.

Duke went backstage early in the morning to rest, meditating silently for a long time with his eyes closed, waiting for Oruch to send someone to inform him.

He opened his eyes suddenly, and a bright light flashed.

Then he strode onto the podium, and looked around the audience, the black pressure was full of heads, and probably half of the arcane mages in the entire Shenjiao City came.

A young 2-ring arcane mage in the entire Seven Towers Federation, and even in the entire human society, deserves such an arrangement.

Take a deep breath.

Duke resolutely used his brewed speech plan, and his voice was low but clear to everyone's ears: "The world is too boring! ”
