Arcane Lord

Dean's answer made Xia Duo realize that there were probably not a few people within the Institute who supported the construction of the territorial branch, but most people were not as radical as Gibson. He will not express his position easily when trying to acquire a piece of territory.

However, to a certain extent, this also highlights the current mainstream concept of lord authority in Netheril. Even in a group as advanced as the Institute, it is still inevitable to be influenced by old ideas.

And not only the concept of lord authority, but also countless old ideas are probably invading the members of the society at all times!

Fortunately, most of the members who entered the society were recruited from the Tower of Time apprentices. Except for a few old apprentices, most of them were new apprentices under the new system after the transformation of the Tower of Time.

Moreover, these apprentices are not very old, they have just reached adulthood (16 years old) and are very malleable, which allows Sha Duo to guide them so easily.

If it were an adult in the outside world, I'm afraid it wouldn't be so easy to change.

Thinking of this, Xia Duo couldn't help but sigh, as the saying goes, hope lies in the next generation, and it really is true!

"Dean, what do you think about the moral education classes for apprentices?"

"Moral education class? It's very good! The apprentices like it very much. They are so happy to have a chance to relax!"

"I'm not asking what the apprentice thinks, I'm asking what you think!" Sha Duo emphasized on "you".

When Dean heard this, he was stunned for a few seconds. He knew that Xia Duo would not simply talk about this topic. It was just that the attitude within the institute about adding a moral education class to the Tower of Time was actually different. He was not sure about Xia Duo. Which part do you want to hear.

After hesitating for a while, Dean finally decided to talk about it, "I also think moral education classes are necessary. In the past, the distance between spellcasters and ordinary people was too far, and it was like two worlds.

"Even among relatives, I often hear that some people never go home after becoming an official mage. Although I can't think of a specific explanation, I intuitively think that this phenomenon is wrong.

"How can there be any reason to accept the contribution of the family but not report anything back!

"Currently, the moral education classes at the Tower of Time allow apprentices to work with their families. This allows them to understand the hardships of their families and prevent them from abandoning their families."

"Then wouldn't they hate ordinary people even more because they don't want to do manual labor?" Xia Duo asked.

"Of course not!"

Dean glanced at Xia Duo strangely, "Xia Duo, don't you know how much academic pressure the Tower of Time apprentices have now? There is a small test every ten days and a big test every month. Each test has rankings. Almost everyone My nerves are all tense, for fear of being overtaken by others.”

cough--

Sha Duo originally wanted Dean to talk about the guiding role of moral education teachers, but unexpectedly Dean suddenly turned to the issue of weekly and monthly exams for apprentices.

In fact, for the Tower of Time apprentices in the main plane, exams are not only pressure, but also a steady source of motivation.

Checking your recent study status through an exam is a treatment that no mage apprentice has ever had in the past.

Although Xia Duo has heard a lot of complaints about exams, the most common complaints are that they are stressed or that a certain classmate is too aggressive. He has never heard anyone say that they want to give up on exams or study!

Almost everyone knows that they must seize this opportunity that may disappear and never appear again, and that can change their own and even their family's future destiny!

Compared with the current enthusiasm for learning among the apprentices of the Tower of Time, Xia Duo dared to say that it was unmatched by students from any school in his hometown when he traveled through time.

Of course, with the continuous popularization of magic education, more and more people have the opportunity to receive education. In the future, anyone may appear. People who do not cherish learning opportunities like those on earth will almost inevitably appear.

Even now, Xia Duo can't guarantee that these apprentices who seem to be very hardworking and very attentive don't have any shrinkage in their hearts.

Once you confirm that you can never catch up with others, it is almost inevitable to fail, or it can be said to be "calm mentality".

Thinking of this, Chateau reminded Dean: "Exams are inevitable at this stage, and in the foreseeable future, exams are unlikely to disappear completely.

"For the apprentices at the bottom of the rankings, be more patient and pay more attention. Even if it is difficult for them to achieve any major achievements in the field of magic in the future, they can still become enlightenment teachers and cultivate a large number of talents for the new era.

"Pay close attention to the psychology of apprentices and don't let them have the idea of ​​​​giving up on themselves. Moral education teachers, in particular, must pay special attention to guidance."

"I understand, I will keep an eye on this myself."

Dean actually felt very deeply about Sha Duo's worries. If he hadn't met Sha Duo in the past, he might have given up on himself.

And now, although his development in the field of magic has gradually fallen behind most of his peers, and the gap will become wider and wider, he has found a new direction in life. He does not feel that life is hopeless, but is full of hope. .

Sha Duo is quite reassured about Dean. Although he may not be able to keep up with him in terms of ideological consciousness in pursuit of progress, there is one thing Sha Duo appreciates very much, and that is Dean's empathy for ordinary people. Maybe they're all at the front.

Compared with most apprentices who come from merchants, craftsmen, landowners, and rich peasant families, Dean, who comes from a poor family, has a deeper identification with ordinary people.

Of course, this is also thanks to Xia Duo, otherwise maybe we might have agreed with each other in the past, but now we want to cut off from the past.

"By the way, let me explain to you again. In the near future, in the name of Daxia Territory, I will send invitations to members of the Society to come to the territory to serve as magic affairs officers."

"Magical Affairs Officer?"

Hearing this strange yet familiar name, Dean didn't react for a moment. When he reacted, he was surprised and asked: "You want to build a branch in the territory?"

"It's not the branch." Xia Duo shook his head, "The branch's proposal was not passed at the collective meeting. I initiated this entirely from the territory and has nothing to do with entering the academy."

"This is a good idea. I think Gibson and the others will be extremely happy when they hear the news."

"Don't approve Gibson's application for the time being. I know they have full enthusiasm for progress and are staunch supporters of our cause, but enthusiasm is not enough for many things. They also need wisdom in dealing with things. Let's examine them for a while! "

Dean heard that Shado was not dissatisfied with Gibson, but had higher expectations for them, and a trace of inexplicable jealousy appeared in Dean's heart.

Of course, he would not specifically target Gibson and others because of this. The most taboo thing within the society is to suppress each other, and unity is the main theme.

"I see."

After that, Dean asked: "So what exactly does a Magical Affairs Officer do? What should you pay attention to when selecting someone?"
