Chapter 416 Apprenticeship Ceremony(1/2)
In early July, Silver Star Academy Auditorium.
The interior space of this round auditorium is transparent and divided into two halves. A statue of the magic goddess more than 20 meters high stands on one side. At his feet is a platform with six tall seats.
In front of the platform, rows of seats are arranged in a fan shape.
Thousands of seats range from low to high, and you can see clearly the situation on the platform from any angle.
At this time, more than 200 people were sitting in the auditorium, and people were sitting in groups of three or three. Some prayed silently to the goddess, some whispered to their friends, and some were staring at the platform with nervous expressions, as if waiting for something.
These people are all wizards.
Resling was among them, sitting far away from the platform, and he saw the entire auditorium.
Today is the day when the legendary wizards of Wizelland recruit students.
In the past, Wizelland held two to three apprenticeship ceremonies from time to time every year, but the floating city suffered a disaster last year, and the number of formal wizards dropped sharply by one third, including many legendary wizards. Tens of thousands of residents in the city were killed or injured. The floating city's vitality has not recovered until it is severely damaged, and many conventions have been broken.
This was the first time that Weizelan held a discipleship ceremony after the disaster.
So, today's ceremony was particularly eye-catching.
There are several times more new wizards than before. After all, many wizards who have accumulated over two years have passed their first soul transformation last year, and have been waiting until now.
The total number of apprentices at Weizelan College remains at about 500 for many years. Each apprentice is among the geniuses in the eyes of ordinary people from the outside world.
However, not all apprentices can pass the soul transformation ritual.
The success rate of the soul transformation of Wizelland Academy is about 80%. Among these 80% of them, only about one-third are qualified to practice meditation and become wizards. About twenty-five people each year, they stand out from countless people, enter the tower area, and truly become members of Wizelland Floating City.
This year's special situation has made the number of new wizards far exceeding the past.
Resling quietly opened the Eye of Soul and counted. There were nearly seventy new wizards sitting in the auditorium, almost three times that of previous years!
Unfortunately, not everyone can worship the legendary wizard.
Wizelland's rules have not changed for thousands of years. The fittest survives. Only legendary wizards can recruit students, concentrate resources on a few top geniuses, and carefully train them into elite wizards, far exceeding spellcasters and extraordinary people of the same level.
The energy and time of the legendary wizard is limited, and so is the resources of the floating city.
A legend can only train seven or eight students at the same time, and no matter how many, it will affect his own development. There are currently only twelve legendary wizards in Wizelland, plus the Grand Speaker Ancivodaus, which means that there are only less than one hundred places in total!
Moreover, some legendary wizards do not like to teach students, and after recruiting one or two students, there has been no movement for many years.
Usually only three or four new wizards become lucky every year.
The other new wizards who were not favored had no teachers, but they did not prevent them from joining the six major departments of the floating city, namely the Academy Department, the Management Department, the Alchemy Department, the Secret Law Department, the City Defense Department and the Exploration Department, and used their work to exchange for remuneration and resources, and slowly accumulated strength.
A wizard entering various departments does not mean that he will lose his chance forever.
When the apprenticeship ceremony is held every year, as long as the wizard without a teacher, you can sign up for it.
In the history of Wizelland, there are many successful precedents for working in the department for many years, accumulating strength, and then joining the legendary school or achieving the legend by yourself.
However, some wizards chose to leave Wizerland and go out to find other opportunities.
One after another, portals opened, and the wizard walked out of it. They found a seat in the auditorium to sit down.
After a moment, the number of wizards exceeded three hundred.
Almost all wizards without teachers in Weizelan came, and even a few advanced wizards came to join in the fun.
The floating city suffered a great disaster, and many wizards sacrificed their lives, and the quota was also given up. This apprenticeship ceremony was a once-in-a-lifetime great opportunity, and no one was willing to miss it.
In fact, there were rumors half a month ago that the legendary wizards would recruit a large number of students at this ceremony, with no less than twenty!
Reslin's indifferent eyes flashed.
This rumor is true.
His body participated in the six-person council, which was the teacher's opinion. Every legend should try his best to cultivate students and restore the power of the floating city, and received unanimous raising of hands from all the speakers.
Several young voices came into Resling's ears and attracted his attention.
"Oh, I really hope I can be chosen, Goddess bless you!"
"Me too……"
"Who do you want to be the most if you can make a decision?" asked the person who spoke in front.
The other person answered without hesitation: "Of course it's Your Excellency Speaker!"
"Who dares not become a student of the Speaker of the Grand Speaker in the entire empire! But do you think this is possible?" A third person next to him sneered, "I think it's better to lower the requirements. What about the second choice besides the Speaker of the Grand Speaker?"
"Speaker Renne!" A man and a woman replied in unison.
Some people don't think so and whispered: "Uh... Speaker Renn is so young, and has just been promoted to the legendary wizard for a few months, and they don't have enough rich experience to impart..."
"But Speaker Renne is rich!"
"Yes, yes, Speaker Rennes is Earl Gen Lamorgan, with such a large territory and is said to be generous. Last year, he also gave the Alchemy Department a corpse of a green dragon, providing the wizards with a lot of potion equipment. If he becomes his student, he will be developed!"
"And Speaker Rennes is so young, only a few years older than us. He is the youngest legendary wizard in history. He has great hope of being promoted to the Holy Soul in the future. He is no worse than the student who became the Grand Speaker. Then he will benefit from it, tsk tsk..."
The new wizard who spoke was quite excited, and his tone was full of yearning.
Such discussions happen frequently in the auditorium.
Reslin listened secretly for a moment and found that he was very popular among new wizards, especially the witches, who almost all expected that they could accept them as students, and couldn't help but smile proudly.
I finally realized the treatment of "tall, rich and handsome".
But taking disciples is not a joke. Leslin took advantage of the ceremony before it even began and quietly opened the Eye of the Soul to observe the wizards in the auditorium.
The information about registering for the wizard was submitted to the legends a few days ago.
After all, the information written on paper is not as clear as if it were personally observed.
Resling sat high, his soul's eyes were like radar, quickly finding out the details of the wizard present, and he had a clear goal in his heart.
It has to be said that Wizards in Wizelland are much stronger than those of the extraordinary outside.
Even the new wizard who has just passed the soul transformation is only at level one, and some even have just mastered the meditation method, and their soul strength is several times higher, and their potential is far beyond ordinary!
The two of the most dazzling ones in this group of new wizards are.
One is a high elves from Demit, who came from the west of the distant old continent.
The figures of elves can often be seen in Modu. The wizards in the floating city are no longer surprised by elves. Elfs do not have a curse of blood souls, and their talents are much better than humans. However, not every elves can become mages, and their talents are also of high or low.
This high elves called "Darama" have extremely high talent. They mastered the meditation method at the age of twelve and became a formal mage. They just reached the age of twenty this year and are already a third-level mage. At the age of an elves, they are underage, but their minds are as mature as humans.
For some reason, Darama left the Elf Kingdom and entered the Floating City of Vizeland to study.
Three years ago, his arrival caused quite a shock.
The arrogant high elf spoke out, and he was only willing to worship the Grand Speaker or the Speaker Cleos, who was also the High Elf.
Obviously, Darama didn't know that Cleos was a dragon, and the elves were just a disguise and didn't want to accept him as a student at all.
And Ancivodaus didn't like him either.
Previously, there were also legendary wizards who were willing to earn Darama, but were rejected on the spot. This was his third time participating in the apprenticeship ceremony.
Darama sat in the front row against the platform in the middle, with no friends around her. Her handsome face was full of rebelliousness, and she seemed to not take anyone seriously, but her back felt a little lonely.
The second one that is highly anticipated is a witch.
Her talent is amazingly high. She is the first new wizard to achieve perfect soul transformation in nearly a hundred years. When the news came out a few months ago, it caused a sensation in the Floating City, and even Ancivodaus praised her for a few words.
People don't know that she is actually the second perfect soul transformation.
But this does not affect everyone's expectations for this witch. Every wizard with a perfect soul is a rare genius that is rare in a century. As long as nothing unexpected happens, he will definitely be promoted to a legend in the future. As for whether he can become a holy soul wizard, it depends on her chances, and there are a few more points than other legends.
The witch's name is "Perlaris".
She sat not far from Darama, surrounded by a large group of people, starry sky, which was in a strong contrast with Darama's situation.
Resling looked at Perlaris in the crowd.
When the Eye of Soul saw through, she practiced the "Wheel of Stars" meditation, which shows that she has changed to an arcane.
In just a few months, Perlaris has been promoted to one level and is currently a second-level wizard and has mastered nine spells. The number of magic seals is four more than the normal second-level wizard!
"It's worthy of being a perfect soul transformation, this talent is almost catching up with me." Resling muttered.
Perlaris is extremely talented, but the bigger reason why she is so popular is her beauty.
She is just over nineteen years old, with a slim figure and a well-fitting magic robe, with a long neck and no flaws on her smooth skin. Her long black hair looks refreshing and capable when she tied her head. Her facial features are delicate like a masterpiece of a god. When she smiles, her bright eyes narrow into a pair of beautiful crescent moons. Her posture is graceful and her temperament is bright. Every frown and smile can touch people's hearts.
Only her side face can be seen in Resling's position, but this angle has a thrilling beauty.
"This looks!"
"Not worse than Siriya, no wonder it's so popular, with a group of suitors around you..."
Resling's eyes had a deep meaning. This witch with beautiful appearance was not as easy to get along with as she seemed. Her soul remained calm and had almost no fluctuations. It was completely different from the cute smile on the surface. She obviously had her own scheming and scheming.
"A wizard who has both talent, beauty and wisdom is destined to have a bright future."
Reslin secretly exclaimed.
In a world where the strong are respected, only beauty is useless, which may in turn bring disaster, but beauty plus strength or wisdom is too powerful.
Perlaris has just become a wizard, but his fame is no less than a legendary wizard.
