I saw the toucan flapping its wings and shouting at Merlins in a dissatisfied tone:
"Merlins, don't think that because you have become a legend, you can order me whatever you want! A toucan will never be a slave."
Merlin glanced at it silently, and the aura belonging to the legendary mage rose up, directly restricting the rules of time and space in the office.
"Bang!"
The toucan fell heavily on the desk with its feet in the air.
After a few minutes, Merlins slowly lifted the magic, and the toucan struggled to stand up again.
After looking at the thick and hard staff and the cold expression on Merlins' face, the toucan whispered, "The legendary mage can't be offended," and flapped its wings and flew out of the window.
Five minutes later, the sixth-level magician Les Ross came to Merlins' office.
Laisi is twenty-five years old this year. She is tall, has slender legs, has long fiery red hair and a good figure that is envied by women. Coupled with her status as the "Tower Master's student", she has always been quite dazzling in the Mage Tower.
existence.
"Lice, how are the enrollment plans for this year planned?" Merlins asked.
"Teacher, as in previous years, we plan to recruit twenty-five people this year," Les replied succinctly. "There are five places at Cambridge University, five places at Osford University, and the remaining five places are reserved.
Leave it to the noble heirs.
"After the final exams of the two universities are over, we will conduct a magic talent test on students whose grades meet the requirements, and select the best students based on their rankings."
Merlins nodded without objection.
Since the destruction of the Dark Temple, the power of the Church of Light has expanded unprecedentedly. Both the magicians and the secular noble forces once bowed their knees under the oppression of the Church of Light and struggled to survive until both parties chose to cooperate, and then they were able to stand up and have
To gain the capital to fight against the Church of Light.
The admission quota specially reserved for the heirs of great nobles is part of the cooperation agreement between the two parties.
Merlins was born a commoner and was extremely dissatisfied with this; but after he gradually understood the whole story, he realized that in the face of a behemoth like the Church of Light, Mage Tower had almost no choice but to cooperate with the nobles.
.
"Among this year's group of aristocratic children, are there any candidates who need special attention?" Merlins then asked.
"Well... there is such a one," Les took out a notebook from her arms and replied, "The youngest daughter of Duke Solomon's family, Selina Solomon... A few days ago, Wizard Wilbert went to give her
I took a talent test and found that her combined magic talent can reach the 'excellent' level."
"real?"
"Absolutely true."
There is no doubt that this is exciting news.
This means that in the near future, the Mage Tower is likely to have another ninth-level magician or even a legendary powerhouse, which is not impossible.
"That's really surprising."
Hearing this, Merlins, as calm as he was, couldn't help but reveal an unexpected smile on his face.
"Magic talent", or "magician's potential", has always been a rather complex concept. This includes mental strength, elemental affinity, magic control ability... and even intelligence, physical fitness, etc.
Based on the comprehensive indicators, Master Tower has established a set of specialized testing standards based on many years of experience.
According to this set of standards, magic talents are divided into five levels: "unqualified", "qualified", "good", "excellent", and "genius".
Reaching "qualification" means you can become a magician.
Reaching "excellence" means having the potential to become a ninth-level magician.
Throughout the ages, there have been very few people with "excellent" talents. As long as they don't die young or give up halfway in the search for the truth, they have basically made great achievements in the field of magic.
As for "genius", it is even rarer. In the past hundred years, Merlins was the only one. No wonder he is so narcissistic.
At that time, the young and energetic Merlins even suggested that instead of changing the name of the level of "genius" to "Mellins", he was the only one anyway, so it didn't matter if he drew an equal sign.
Of course, his proposal was undoubtedly rejected.
The reason is: Talent is just potential, only represents a possibility, and does not mean the final achievement in the future. If you are complacent and lose your ambition by playing with things, the "genius" may be beaten by "qualification".
However, having said that, a magician with an "excellent" talent level will definitely receive more resources during the learning process than a magician with a "qualified" level.
This is not discrimination. This is just improving resource utilization efficiency.
Therefore, every new student who wants to enter the Mage Tower attaches great importance to this magic talent test because this test almost determines their future destiny.
"I want to designate a place in advance," at this moment, Merlins suddenly ordered in an unquestionable tone, "Lice, write down this name, a student of mathematics at Cambridge University, the second son of the lord of Kent.
Alan York.
"Regardless of how he does in the final exam or the results of his magic talent test, he will be recruited. I want to teach him personally."
Les Rose took out a pen and quickly wrote down what Merlins said in her notebook.
"It's just...teacher," she asked with some confusion, "didn't you ask President Lynn of Cambridge University to investigate the relevant information of Alan York for you? No more waiting?"
"It's not necessary," Merlins shook his head gently. "When I was promoted to legend, I saw the future through the river of destiny more clearly than before. In my field of vision, everyone's destiny trajectory is very clear.
, only Alan York is vague and indistinguishable, full of uncertainty.
"I think... now that the Church of Light is so powerful, the future of the Mage Tower is likely to be bumpy. Perhaps... only by making good use of uncertain factors like Alan York can we have a chance to rewrite the future."
After hearing this, Laisi no longer refuted.
Merlins has always been a master of prophecy, and after being promoted to legend, he has become a unique authority in this field. Les has always obeyed his words.
Unknowingly, Les once again felt envious of "Alan York" whom she had never met.
I remember that in order to become a student of Merlins, she had to endure hardships, study hard, go through a lot of hardships, and overcome many obstacles... Looking back now, I still feel extremely sad.
But this guy Alan York was directly appointed by the legendary mage?
What kind of bad luck did he have?
It makes people crazy with jealousy!
