Mage with knife

The proportion of people with magical talents is very small to begin with, not to mention that one of them needs to have an intermediate qualification. Dick doesn't have much hope, so why not try it out?

That old man Larson said that if we could practice magic together, it might also be helpful to the training of future warriors.

Dick, a bumpkin, had no chance to interrupt. He listened to Borg and Alina chatting. For the children of the nobles, the magic qualification test was over in half a month. Only three batches of noble children were tested, and less than 30% were admitted to the magic academy.

There are roughly fifty students.

It sounds like a lot, isn't it? Isn't it said that magic qualifications are very rare?

Maybe it's because there are fewer aristocratic children with magic qualifications (not all nobles have the ability to test their magic qualifications at home, most of the nobles can only go to the royal capital to test their magic qualifications).

Sure enough, Borg continued, as many as 300 civilian children who have reached the qualifications of the magic academy have been admitted as students. These are just the civilian children in and near the royal capital. There are civilian children from far away, and they come from all the way.

No.

We waited from noon until night, and when it was getting dark, a magic instructor finally appeared with his disciples.

The test begins.

More than fifty noble children were brought into a hall, and the instructor activated a magic circle. The magic circle was shining brightly and was running.

A child entered the magic circle. Alina introduced that it was a test of mental power. The longer he persisted, the stronger his mental power became.

The child persisted for less than half a minute before he came out. Alina shook her head and said: "It takes one minute for the mental strength to reach medium."

Sure enough, the instructor judged that his mental qualifications were 'low C'.

Although this child is a little frustrated, he does not have no chance at all. Next, as long as his elemental affinity reaches medium, he still has a chance to stay in the magic academy.

A shiny ball seems to be a simple test. The child holds the colorful ball on the table, and the ball gradually begins to emit brown light.

Alina shook her head again, what did Dick mean by asking?

Alina replied: "Earth magic qualifications, unfortunately, the light is less than one foot, and the elemental affinity is not medium enough."

I understand, this guy has been eliminated.

More than a dozen children were tested one after another, and only two successfully met the standard.

Ranked before Alina is Borg, whose mental power is 'low B', slightly stronger than 'low C'. The worst mental power is 'low D'. They are ranked according to the quality of A, B, C and D.

Borg's elemental affinity is pretty good, 'Medium A', which means that this guy's elemental affinity is about to reach a high level.

Overall, Borg's qualification test is pretty good.

It's Alina's turn. This girl's qualifications are indeed good. Her mental strength is 'medium-level', and her wind element affinity is also 'medium-level'. Good guy! This is already a super awesome existence. Even the test magic instructor is right.

Alina expresses great closeness.

It's time for Dick.

Dick got into the magic circle and felt a huge tingling sensation in his head. I can't bear it!

Well, in the end, all the patience was in vain. Dick’s mental power test was only ‘low armor’, so he didn’t meet the standard after all.

When Dick came out of the magic circle, the tingling sensation disappeared instantly and returned to normal. If it doesn't meet the standard, it means it doesn't meet the standard. Dick was mentally prepared. He walked to the middle and held down the colorful magic ball with his hand.

Huh? I wiped it! An accident happened, and the red light gradually exceeded one foot. It was paralyzing! It turns out that my affinity for fire elements is really good.

Wait! Not only are there red lights, there are also blue rays, and water-type ones! It’s also over a foot. I’ve reached the target of dual element affinity.

Both elemental affinities are at the top level! Dick miraculously passed the magic qualification test. His overall qualifications are barely good, at least better than Borg.

"Congratulations, Dick, you have become a glorious member of Dayan Magic Academy." The magic instructor also gave Borg a rare congratulation. It is indeed very rare to be able to practice two types of magic.

"Teacher, I will practice hard and won't embarrass Dayan Magic Academy." It's time to express your stance. Dick is a good boy with a sense of collective honor.

The magic instructor was very satisfied with Dick's statement, and even patted Dick's shoulder affectionately to show encouragement. The magic academy is also an organizational unit, so of course it must have a sense of belonging.

"Congratulations! Congratulations!" It was rare for Borg, who looked down on Dick, to express his gratitude. After all, Dick's magic qualifications are already pretty good. In the future, there is a good chance that Dick will be promoted to an intermediate magician. In this way, Borg will understand why.

Alina brought this poor relative to the capital for testing.

If he has magical potential, of course the noble family will want to win over him.

"Congratulations! Congratulations!" Did Borg also pass the test? Of course Dick had to be polite.

"Alina, I'm awesome, I can do both magic and martial arts, haha!" Dick rarely showed off in front of Alina and passed the magic test, which was really surprising.

"Your mental talent is so poor, and your magic practice is very slow." Alina curled her lips.

"I am a warrior. With the help of magic training, I will have a chance to break through to a high-level warrior in the future, haha!" As for whether magic training can really assist the cultivation of fighting spirit to become a high-level warrior, now, just listen to what the old man Larson said

That's all. In the future, who knows whether it will work or not. Is it always good to have more hopes?

"Hmph!" The proud Alina didn't pay attention to Dick's words. She has super qualifications in both tests and is a member of the future great magician. She will not argue with rude soldiers.

Woolen cloth.

Of the more than fifty children, only seven passed the test, which seems to be a lot.

Next, the students who pass the test will be picked up by the Magic Academy to arrange for board and lodging. Not bad, the board and lodging in the academy is free of charge. Dick doesn't have much money either. In addition to paying the tuition of 10,000 gold coins for the first year of the academy,

Dick only had a small bag of gold coins given by Taeta for living expenses.

Not a lot, how much is too much?

The magic gold card that Taita gave to Dick was swiped on the magic instrument. The magic gold card clearly showed that 10,000 gold coins were gone, and there was only a fraction of a gold coin left in the card.

Dick was very curious. His father and Uncle Taita were both so poor. How could they get so many gold coins?

"Dick, you actually passed the magic aptitude test?" After leaving the academy, even Tita looked at Dick in surprise.

"It's okay, but the cost of learning magic is too high." The annual tuition is tens of thousands of gold coins.

"Dick, you don't have to worry about the gold coins. Don't worry, the tuition for the next two years will be sent to you soon." Tita and Sinclair didn't expect that Dick actually had magic talent. They originally thought that Dick would be a warrior in the royal capital.

For school, ten thousand gold coins are enough for three years' tuition.

"Dick, you really have a talent for magic." Even old man Larson came over curiously.

"Yes, Grandpa Larson, I have two magic talents, fire and water."

"Interesting!" Larson laughed.
