Chapter 8 Magical Talent

Three months passed in a flash, and the summer wind brought a touch of warmth to the northern town of Fallen Dragon Castle. In the square of the town, a group of teenagers were training. Today, there were only a few personalities in the square.

Two hundred people. There are two times when the Pu'ang Empire joins the army. One is after the busy autumn harvest, and the other is in the late spring and early summer every year. At this time, more than a hundred young people from Falling Dragon Castle have gone to their military career, and the remaining

The children are relatively young, and since this is the warmest and most pleasant time of the year in northern towns, most children are inevitably a little lazy.

Although Wright really wants to become a magician, he also knows that talent cannot be forced, so he can only redouble his efforts to train as a warrior. As his father Andy said, if you can't become a magician, becoming a powerful warrior is just as good.

At this time, Wright was only wearing shorts, and his bare upper body was covered with sweat. His whole body was lying on the ground like a taut string, his hands were firmly pressed on the ground like the roots of an old tree, and his whole body could not move.

Don't move, rely only on your hands and the toes of your feet for support. Your whole body is completely tense.

Static tension exercise!

It is a simple and applicable exercise method that can exercise the muscles of the whole body at the same time, especially the dead areas of the abdomen and calves. However, in a small town in the North like Falling Dragon Castle, this kind of exercise is not common.

The temperature in the North is too low, so apart from the "Qi Accumulation Style" that must be practiced, the exercise methods are mainly dynamic exercises. People who can maintain static tension for a long time are often good fighters.

More than a year has passed, and Wright's training has begun to bear fruit. Today, Wright is already at the level of a first-class warrior---considering that he is only a 9-year-old boy, this strength is actually quite astonishing.

"This morning's training ends here." Rooft shook his head and said, "Plan, Leonard, Harris, Wright, Gallon... the eight of you will come with me later."

Hearing Roofut's words, most of the children looked at the children whose names were called with sympathetic eyes, except for some older ones, Nuosuosi.

Wright was not surprised because he knew what it was about.

The evening before, after dinner. "Light," adoptive father Andy said somewhat solemnly, "do you still remember what you said before about wanting to be a magician?"

Wright: "Huh?"

Looking at Wright's somewhat confused expression, Andy said with some resentment: "The Blue Castle Magic Admissions Test will begin in about two months. Are you not going to go?"

Ah, magic test admissions?" Wright suddenly remembered this matter. Half a year ago, his parents had asked if he wanted to be a magician, and he quickly replied: "Dad, I really want to be a magician.

Please arrange for me to go to Blue Castle to take the magic admissions test as soon as possible. Blue Castle is so far away, should we go now?"

"Don't be in a hurry, you are a magician. It also depends on whether you have talent. If you don't have talent, it would be a waste of gold coins to go there." Andy touched his chin with rare pride and said, "So the guards and I

Several old brothers in the team have discussed it and went to find Master Wilmot. He promised to help you guys test whether you have magic talent. If you don't have any talent, there is no need to go all the way.

If he is very talented, he can also write letters of introduction to the mages he knows."

Wright: "......"

----------------

Rooft first led several children to a residential area and picked up five teenagers and girls. Then he walked to an independent mansion in the west of the town and knocked hard on the door. After a while, a young man about 17 or 18 years old opened the door.

When he walked out, the young man was wearing aqua blue robes and holding a staff in his hand. His face was thin and his temperament looked very gentle.

The young man first greeted Luofut in a friendly manner, and then asked, "Brother Luofut, are these children testing magic talents?"

After receiving a positive answer from Luofut, the young man invited Luofut and several children to sit in the living room, and then said to Luofut, "Brother Luofut, although I can do the test, as usual, I still have to tell the teacher that I am now

Go and ask the teacher for instructions. Children, please follow me first."

Then he led Wright, a total of thirteen boys and girls, to the door of a room at the back of the mansion, and knocked on the door: "Teacher, the child who came to test today has arrived."

A serious voice came from the room: "Karl, come in." Then the door opened automatically.

Several boys and girls, including Wright, opened their eyes wide when they saw the scene at the door. Otherwise, the furnishings in this room were too mysterious. The floor was made of bright marble, with huge crystal lanterns hanging above their heads, and a strange mist spiraling up.

, the bookshelf that occupies half of the house, the gleaming gemstone staff, and various strange biological specimens, these boys and girls suddenly felt a sense of admiration. Even Wright was quite surprised. Is this the life of a magician?

It looks a bit too mysterious. Dad also knew a magician before, but this style of painting is completely different from what Dad said!

The corner of Karl's mouth on the side was twitching. His teacher was very serious when teaching magic, but sometimes it was too funny. Now, in order to show off in front of a few children, the teacher seemed to use those useful things.

All useless things were taken out for decoration, and I was afraid that I would have to clean them myself in the end.

"Okay, children, come here." The old mage with long hair, wearing a black robe with dots of starlight, and holding a staff with a huge ruby ​​in his hand said, "Let me check your magic talents. One by one.

Come here, Karl prepares a record." He took out a crystal ball from his robe and said: "Later, put your hand on the crystal ball to test the element affinity. Then go to the magic circle to test your mental power."

The first person to test was a little girl named Shirley. The little girl put her right hand on the crystal ball nervously, and suddenly the entire crystal ball began to glow with a hazy light blue light.

Karl's eyes widened, "Shirley, water element affinity, medium."

The old mage was also quite surprised. Although medium element affinity is only the bottom line talent for magicians, and it also requires mental strength, which is also very rare, it is indeed a bit disappointing for the first little girl to have such a talent.

People were surprised.

The young mage apprentice Karl guided Shirley to a complex hexagonal magic circle. The old mage waved his hand and sprinkled a stream of aqua blue magic light into the magic circle.

Water magic water pressure!

The little girl in the magic circle felt a sense of dullness. After a while, the dullness turned into suffocation. Shirley struggled to breathe, and then the magic power suddenly disappeared.

Karl recorded excitedly on the side: "Withstanding the endurance for five minutes, the mental strength should be 12-14 times that of people of the same age."

Master Wilmot touched his beard and asked happily: "Little girl, your talent is not bad, are you interested in being my student?"

"Teacher!" Karl reminded helplessly from the side, "There are still 12 children." The old mage came back to his senses and said with a smile. The little girl comes to my side first. Let's finish the rest of the test first, and then

Let’s talk about the apprenticeship again.

Encouraged by Shirley's one-time success, everyone was a little excited.

But the results of the next test poured cold water on me.

"Harris, the fire element affinity is elementary, there is no need to test the mental strength, it is not qualified!"

"Pu Lan, the wind element is average, the dark element is average, and the mental power is 5 times that of his peers. It's a pity, it's almost!"

"Jena, elementary earth element, unqualified!"

Eight people in a row all failed. Except for Pu Lan, he could try practicing more meditation according to Master Wilmot. Maybe he could improve his mental power and reach 6 times the mental power of his peers in the test at Blue Castle next year.

Just outside the qualified baseline, the other seven people have absolutely no possibility of practicing magic.

"Next, Wright," Carl called.

Wright took a breath to calm down, stepped into it, and placed his hand on the crystal ball.

In an instant, the entire crystal ball suddenly became dazzling. The earthy yellow and fiery red light complemented each other, and the light was faintly dazzling.

This dazzling light stunned everyone in the room.

"Bah!" The recording pen in Karl's hand fell off, causing him to wake up. He looked at the crystal ball carefully, and couldn't help shouting in a higher tone, "Lite, earth element, fire element affinity is super."

Wright's heart was beating loudly. He had heard from his parents that magic talent mainly depends on elemental affinity and mental power. Although it is not clear what level of talent "super" actually represents, it is definitely not low, if not mental power, it is also high.

,So....

"Mental power test," Master Wilmot said loudly after coming back to his senses.

Wright walked into the magic circle, and immediately after the magic was activated, a strange pressure acted on his spirit.

"It's just so so." Faced with this kind of spirit, Wright didn't feel much pressure at first, as if a breeze was blowing on his face.

As time passed, the magic array's light became brighter and brighter, and the pressure also became stronger and stronger. After about a quarter of an hour, he felt the pressure getting stronger and stronger, and Wright slowly fell to his knees in despair.

Carl carefully calculated the time and Wright's grade, and said excitedly: "The mental strength is 28-33 times that of his peers, which is on the border between advanced and super."
