The Sorcerer's Guild was in the southern part of the city, while the Breeze Sect was in the center of the city. Nian Bing identified the general direction and slowly walked. At this time, the sky was gradually darkening, and evening was coming.
Because he couldn't use magic, his speed was no different from ordinary people. After walking for a full hour, he saw a tall building not far away. It was a building that looked like a steeple, and its height was even higher than the Dacheng Pavilion. The steeple of the building looked very special, and on the side facing the street, there was a huge golden hexagram symbol. Needless to say, this was the place he was looking for. Thinking of this, Nian Bing quickened his pace and walked in the direction of the Sorcerer's Guild.
At this time, the sound of a horse's hooves suddenly came from behind. Judging from the sound, the horse's speed wasn't fast, but it was very rhythmic. The crisp sound of hooves on the ground was like music. When he was young, Nian Bing once heard his father say that only the best horses had a fixed rhythm when they galloped. Curiously looking back, he saw a girl riding a tall red horse coming in his direction. The girl on the horse was wearing a blue magic robe without any embroidery. Her long purple hair was neatly combed behind her back. She was very beautiful. Nian Bing secretly compared her with Feng Nu. He was surprised to find that this girl who looked a little weak was not inferior to Feng Nu. Her big black eyes were looking in the direction of the Sorcerer's Guild, and she revealed a gentle smile.
Many passers-by on both sides seemed to know her, and they smiled and made way for her. Although the girl's horse was not fast, it was still faster than Nian Bing's walking. She arrived at the Sorcerer's Guild before him.
She jumped off the horse, and a man wearing a yellow magic robe came out from the Guild. He helped her hold the horse and said kindly, "Ling 'er, you're finally back. Why were you gone for so long?"
Ling 'er smiled gently and said, "Xuejing asked me to stay for dinner. Senior brother, you know that I have always liked the food at the Breeze Sect, so I came back a little late. Have you eaten?"
The man smiled and said, "I've already eaten. Let's go in."
When Nian Bing heard the two words Ling 'er, her heart suddenly moved. Could it be that this young girl was the Great Magician Long Ling that Miss Xuejing had an appointment with? Looking at her appearance, her temperament was completely different from Xuejing's. Their names should be changed. Since she was the daughter of the president of the Magic Guild, it should be easier to get an answer from her. Thinking of this, he quickly stepped forward. Taking advantage of the fact that Long Ling 'er had not yet entered the union, he ran in front of them and asked, "Excuse me, is this the headquarters of the Magicians Union?"
Long Ling looked at Nianbing curiously. Seeing him in such a hurry, she couldn't help but smile.
The man glanced at Nian Bing and proudly said, "That's right, this is the Magician's Union. What do you want?"
Nian Bing said, "I want to ask, what are the conditions to be able to read the magic books in the union?"
The man frowned and said, "That can only be read by people in the union. Moreover, it has to be based on your own rank. You can't skip ranks to read the information in the union. Could it be that you are a magician?"
Nian Bing quickly nodded and said, "Yes, I am an ice magician. I don't know if I can enter the union to read it?" He was already familiar with fire magic as a rank eight magician. Rank eight magician needed to be an experienced mage to use it. What he needed the most right now was ice magic spells, so he naturally said that he was an ice magician.
When the man heard Nian Bing say that he was an ice magician, the expression on his face eased a bit. "Then have you ever joined a union in another country? If you have, we don't welcome you here. Otherwise, you can come to the union to take a test. According to your test results, the union will give you a corresponding mark. However, looking at your appearance, even if you are a magician, your level shouldn't be too high. "Although the man's words were a bit harsh, but what he said was indeed the truth. Being a magician was a very expensive profession, especially in the early stages. If one didn't have the help of good gems, it would be very difficult to feel the existence of magic elements. And the price of gems, no matter which country in the Yangon continent, was always high. It was simply not something that ordinary people could afford. Moreover, practicing magic required the guidance of a teacher. If there was no teacher, it would be very difficult to achieve anything. Therefore, it was no wonder that this man had some doubts.
Nian Bing didn't care whether she joined a union or not. As long as she could learn the magic spells she needed, it was enough. She quickly said, "I haven't joined any union yet. Can I trouble you to take me in for a test? If possible, I am very willing to join the Ice Moon Empire's Magician's Union."
The man glanced at Long Ling, who was beside him. Long Ling was also looking at him. "Senior brother, please help him. Looking at his appearance, he should be from another country. Now that there are fewer and fewer people in the union, we also need to recruit more fresh blood. Several elders in the union are here. If he has good potential, perhaps we can increase our strength. "
The man nodded and said, "But it's already a bit late today. I think, let's talk about it tomorrow. Young man, come back tomorrow morning. "
Nian Bing thought that she still had to stay in the Breeze Sect tomorrow. She should also explore the specialty dishes of the Breeze Sect, so she didn't have much time. She couldn't help but say to the man, "Respected Great Magician, can you make an exception? I have some things to do during the day tomorrow, but I happen to have some free time now."
Although the man was Long Ling 'er's senior brother, he was only an earth element adept mage due to his limited aptitude. He hadn't reached the realm of a great mage yet. When he heard Nian Bing call him a great mage, his mood immediately improved. He thought to himself, My junior sister likes to help others. If I help this kid this time, my junior sister might have a better impression of me. When he thought of that, a faint smile appeared on his face. He said, "Seeing as you're not from here, I'll make an exception. Come with us. "
Long Ling 'er smiled and said, "Senior brother, I know you are the best."
Being praised by his beloved junior sister, the man's mood immediately improved. He smiled at Long Ling 'er and led the horse inside. Nian Bing gave a grateful look to Long Ling' er and hurriedly followed the two into the Magician's Guild.
The huge building outside the Magician's Guild was only the surface. After passing through the gate, there was an open space like a field. The surrounding buildings were closely connected with each other. The area was so large that even the Great Accomplishment Pavilion and the Breeze Sect couldn't compare to it. It was worthy of being the Ice Moon Empire's Magician's Guild.
After the man handed Long Ling 'er's horse to a servant, he and Long Ling' er led Nian Bing into a building on the left. As they walked, he asked Nianbing, "What's your name? What realm have you reached in ice magic?"
Nian Bing hurriedly replied, "My name is Nian Bing. I have always been practicing by myself. I don't know what realm I have reached. I haven't asked for your name yet, Great Magician. "
The man said indifferently, "My name is Shi Jiu. This is a testing area. According to the Guild's regulations, any magician's test must be carried out by an elder of the Archmage rank. You wait here for a moment. I will go and see if the elders have entered meditation. If they have already started meditating, they cannot be disturbed. You can only come back tomorrow." After saying that, he said something to Long Ling 'er and turned around to walk through a side door.
Long Ling 'er smiled faintly and said, "Although senior brother's temper is a bit eccentric, he has a very good heart. If my words have offended you, I still have to ask for your forgiveness. "While saying that, she continued to lead him inside.
Listening to Long Ling's soft and gentle words, Nian Bing's heart was particularly comfortable. She felt that she was much easier to get along with than Xuejing. She smiled and said, "Great Magician, you don't have to be polite. This time, I have really troubled you. Although I have always been practicing magic, I have always been unable to grasp the essentials. Therefore, this time, I wanted to learn some things in the Guild. If there is an opportunity, I would like to ask for your guidance. "
Long Ling 'er smiled faintly and said, "I don't dare to give you guidance. You also don't have to call me Great Magician. I still haven't taken the advancement test. This is my father's request. He said that anyone under his tutelage who hasn't reached the realm of Great Magician is not allowed to take the test and wear a symbol to avoid losing face for him. My father is very powerful. If you pass the test, I can introduce you to him. In the future, you can just call me by my name. My name is Long Ling 'er. Everyone calls me Ling' er. Speaking of which, I am the same as you. We are both ice magicians. Why don't you have a magic robe? If you don't wear a magic robe, how can it represent your identity as a magician? "
Nian Bing pretended to have a bitter look and said, "Since I was young, I wanted to become a magician. But my family was too poor, so I could only find opportunities to learn by myself. Previously, I accidentally met a magician. He said that I have an ice attribute physique, so he taught me a meditation method. I practiced according to his method. Later on, I really did have magic power. But that magician only taught me meditation and didn't teach me incantations. Therefore, until now, I only know some of the lowest level ice magic."
At this time, they had already passed through two doors and came to a hall. Because the building had a pointed roof, the hall was very tall. The area was about two hundred square meters. There were all kinds of murals on the walls. On the murals, there were all kinds of pictures. Most of them were magicians wearing magic robes and some magic items. In the center of the hall, there was a circle with a diameter of five meters. There was a six-pointed star in the center of the circle. The six points of the six-pointed star were white, blue, red, green, yellow, and gold. These six colors symbolized the six most mainstream types of magic.
Long Ling heard Nian Bing's words. Her eyes immediately showed sympathy. She comforted him and said, "It doesn't matter. As a magician, relying on meditation to cultivate magic power is the most important. Magic power is the foundation of all magic. As long as your magic power is strong enough, coupled with incantations, you will naturally be able to use higher level magic. As for the magic robe, you don't have to worry. After passing the test, we will naturally give you one here. However, you must be at least an intermediate magician to be able to join our guild. Otherwise, you can only continue to cultivate on your own. "
Nian Bing nodded. In his heart, he thought that he was at least an advanced magician. Even if he didn't have any advanced ice spells, he still knew one or two fourth level ice spells. Passing the test shouldn't be a big problem. "Miss Ling 'er, I really have to thank you. If I didn't meet you and your senior, I really wouldn't know how to enter the Magician's Guild."
Long Ling smiled and said, "There is nothing to thank. Even if you didn't meet us, after entering the Guild, as long as you show your identity as a magician, there will naturally be people to receive you. Later on, you have to work hard. During the test, no one can help you. Everything depends on your own strength. "
Nian Bing firmly nodded and said, "I will definitely pass the test."
Just at this moment, the sound of footsteps was heard. Nian Bing and Long Ling both looked behind them and saw Shi Jiu walking in with an old man wearing a blue magician's robe. That old man had snow-white hair and looked to be at least sixty or seventy years old. There was a symbol embroidered on the left side of his chest. Nian Bing couldn't be more familiar with this symbol. It was the same symbol as her father's sorcerer symbol. Very clearly, he was either a water or ice sorcerer.
Shi Jiu took the lead and walked to Nian Bing's side, saying, "Your luck is really not bad. Today, Teacher Li Hua hasn't entered meditation yet. He is a water sorcerer. Why haven't you hurriedly saluted him?" In the field of magicians, status was extremely important. As long as there was a difference in level, one must bow and salute. Nian Bing had long heard her father mention this point. Towards the strong, he had absolute respect. She hurriedly bowed to the old man and said, "Greetings, respected sorcerer."
The old man didn't seem to like to talk much. He only made a sound of 'en', indicating that he agreed.
Shi Jiu respectfully said to the old sorcerer, "Teacher Li Hua, can we begin now?"
The old man looked up and down at Nian Bing and extended his hand to Nianbing, saying, "Stimulate your magic and use your strongest power to transfer it to me. I must first know what level your magic has reached."
Nian Bing agreed. He reached out his right hand and grabbed the old magician's withered hand. He carefully controlled the ice magic in his body to separate from the vortex of ice and fire, and attacked the old magician. She didn't want others to know that she had two types of magic at the same time, so when she attacked with her ice magic, she tried to restrain her fire magic as much as possible to avoid being detected by the other party.
Under the influence of her mental strength, the ice magic was transmitted through her arm and rushed to the sorcerer. When Nian Bing's magic moved to her arm, because her magic was always rotating, it had a very strong suction force on the magic elements in the air. Naturally, it attracted the ice elements in the air to attack Li Hua.
Blue light was emitted from Nian Bing's body. Just the release of magic light was enough to prove that she had at least the strength of an intermediate sorcerer.
Li Hua's half-closed eyes suddenly opened and looked at Nian Bing with some surprise. Feeling the magic from his hand continuously rushing to him, the surprise in his eyes became more and more intense. He clearly discovered that the young man in front of him, who looked about the same age as Long Long'er, was transmitting an exceptionally pure magical power without a trace of impurities. What was even more precious was that his magical power was very condensed. After it was transmitted into his body, his own water magical power actually had a very difficult time dispelling the condensed icy aura. Moreover, when the ice magical power was transmitted, it was actually slightly rotating, like an endless river. With his own strength as a Magic Shooter, it was somewhat strenuous to resist this peculiar ice magical power.
"Okay." Li Hua suddenly opened his mouth and his right hand shook slightly. Nian Bing only felt a gentle airflow like a wave, pushing her hand away from Li Hua's hand. Li Hua frowned slightly and looked at her, saying, "Tell me, who is your teacher?"
Nian Bing lowered her head and said, "Honorable sorcerer, I don't have a teacher. I only learned to meditate from an unknown sorcerer. After that, I have been relying on myself to practice. Do you think I can pass the test?"
Li Hua's eyes showed a strange light, and said, "Whether you can pass the test or not depends on your performance. Now, you can use the magic you are most proud of, which is the highest level magic to attack me. You have to remember that magic control is a very important part of magic. If you can only release magic but can't control it effectively, then you can't be a qualified sorcerer. "
Besides her father, this was the first time that Nian Bing had been instructed by another sorcerer. She nodded quickly. She didn't dare to use the Stone of Ice Goddess, so she just raised her hand and chanted loudly, "Great Ice Goddess! Please lend me your anger and send us to the lost shore. "
Hearing her spell, Li Hua didn't show any expression, but Long Ling 'er and Shi Jiu were surprised. Long Ling' er whispered to Shi Jiu, "Senior, this should be the spell of Blizzard! Blizzard is a Grade Four Ice Spell that covers a large area. I've only mastered it not long ago. Since he can use this spell, his magic power shouldn't be below mine. It seems that we were right to let him in for the test. "
Shi Jiu's expression was a little ugly. He snorted and said, "That depends on whether or not he can really use this magic. Who knows, maybe he's just trying to force himself to chant the incantation. What's the use of just looking good?"
Under the effect of the spell, the temperature in the air suddenly dropped sharply. Clear blue light spots constantly condensed on Nianbing's body. Although he didn't use the Sigh of the Ice Goddess, which could be used as a magic wand, he had been practicing with the Stone of Ice Goddess for many years. He had long been connected with the Stone of Ice Goddess. Although he didn't use it directly, the effect was only a little less.
The blue light spots floated around Nian Bing's body. The light flashed one after another, and the blue light spots began to spin around Nian Bing's body quickly. Blizzard was the Level Four Ice Magic that Nian Bing was best at. Because when the Blizzard was spinning, it was secretly connected to the magic power of ice and fire in his body. In the process of using it, he could save some magic power.
Snowflakes appeared one after another. Li Hua's face also became serious. Feeling the surrounding temperature, he took out a small magic wand that was only eight inches long. In a low voice, he chanted a few words. Suddenly, a watery ripple appeared in front of him. This was not a simple Water Wall Spell, but an advanced version of it. It had reached the Level Five single-target defensive Water Magic — Water Mirror Spell. Not only could it have a very good defensive effect, but it could also, to a certain extent, counterattack the opponent's magic.
The Blizzard was finally formed. It spun quickly around Nian Bing's body. The spinning speed was getting faster and faster. Gradually, his figure could not be seen. Nian Bing's eyes shone with blue light. The Blizzard condensed into a small tornado that flew close to the ground and flew towards Li Hua.
Seeing this, Shi Jiu, who was at the side, said disdainfully, "Junior Sister, what did I say? The snowstorm is only so small. Can it be called a snowstorm?"
Long Ling's eyes showed a strange expression. "No, Senior Brother, you're wrong. Father once said that the Blizzard spell can not only attack a large area and allow the Ice Magician to fly for a short period of time. If the Magician's magic power reaches a certain level and he has good control of his magic, then it can be used as a single-target attack spell. Using the Blizzard spell as a single-target attack, then its true power can be displayed. Father told me that when I can reach such a level, then I can continue to advance in the direction of an Archmage. "
Looking at the Blizzard that had condensed into such a large area, Li Hua's expression changed several times. He waved the magic wand in his hand and chanted a few words. Two more Water Mirror Spells blocked in front of him.
Seeing that the Blizzard that Nian Bing had condensed was about to reach Li Hua, it suddenly stopped in its tracks. Just as the other three Magicians present were in a state of shock, the Blizzard suddenly rose into the air. The entire whirlpool was horizontal, like a huge whip. From top to bottom, it lashed towards Li Hua's position.
After all, Li Hua had been immersed in magic for many years. In the face of chaos, he was not flustered. He took a step forward and pointed the magic wand in his hand upwards. He forcibly raised the three Water Mirror Spells in front of him above his head and welcomed the attack of the Blizzard.
Nian Bing's Blizzard spell, which had the same source of ice and fire, was like a sharp blade. The mirrors could reflect light and even energy. However, when faced with a sharp blade, they could only meet force with force. The ear-piercing sound of friction rang out continuously. The first Water Mirror was quickly destroyed by the rapid rotation of the Blizzard, followed by the second. When the Blizzard reached Li Hua's final line of defense, it did not weaken. Other than the thinning of the snowflakes, its attack power did not decrease in the slightest. The hurricane filled the entire hall, forcing Shi Jiu and Long Ling to retreat to the edge of the hall and release their own defensive spells. At this moment, Nian Bing had already raised her magic to the limit.
Li Hua's eyes shone brightly. His body suddenly became distorted. When the last Water Mirror was destroyed by Nian Bing's powerful Blizzard, his body suddenly burrowed directly into the Blizzard. Under everyone's shocked gasps, blue waves suddenly flashed. Nian Bing's entire body shook. She was pulled back a few steps and almost fell to the ground. The Blizzard also disappeared in Silence amidst the waves. In the entire hall, other than the extremely low temperature, everything else returned to normal.
Li Hua's body appeared not too far away from Nian Bing. He seemed to be deep in thought as he said, "A tier 4 spell can actually force me to use a tier 7 spell, Water Melting Sky. Kid, your control over magic is almost on par with mine. It's a pity that your magic is only at the level of a Grand Mage. "
Long Ling, who was at the side, said in surprise, "Uncle Li Hua, you're saying that he's a Grand Mage?"
Li Hua nodded and said, "Other than you, this is the first time I've seen such a talented child. It's not easy for such a young age to cultivate magic to such a level. His level of magic is about the same as yours, but his control of magic is much better than yours. It's obvious that his spiritual power is very strong. It's almost at the level of a sorcerer. You can give him the title of a Grand Mage. The reason why your father didn't let you take the test is because your control of magic is not enough. In the future, you have to work harder in this area and strive to become a Grand Mage as soon as possible. Child, how old are you? "The last sentence was asked by Nianbing. His tone was much gentler.
Nian Bing had used a lot of ice magic, but his spiritual power was strong, and he had the support of the same source of ice and fire, so he didn't feel much discomfort. He respectfully said, "Honorable sorcerer, I'm 18 years old this year."
Li Hua's eyes flashed. "18 years old. That means you're one year younger than Ling 'er. It seems that I can only describe you as a genius. Ling 'er also barely entered the realm of a Grand Mage after she was 19 years old, but you're even younger. An 18 year old Grand Mage, hahahaha. It seems that our Ice Moon Mage Guild will have another new talent. Come again tomorrow. I think the president will be very happy to see a genius like you. "
Although Nian Bing wanted to read the books on ice magic spells tonight, he also knew that he couldn't be too hasty at this time. He respectfully saluted Li Hua and said, "Then I'll have to trouble you."
To the side, Shi Jiu's expression changed, and his eyes flickered with light. He had never thought that this youth in plain clothes would actually have the strength of a Grand Magus, and was even stronger than Long Ling 'er who had always been called a genius. The jealousy in his heart made his face ashen, and he couldn't say anything. At this time, Nian Bing turned to Shi Jiu and Long Ling and said, "Thank you for your help. I'll come again tomorrow." After saying that, he smiled at the two of them and turned to walk outside. Long Ling looked at Nian Bing's figure from behind, and a strange feeling suddenly rose in her heart. Ever since she was young, she had always been the princess of the Magician's Guild and was hailed as a magical genius. She had never thought that a plainly dressed youth would actually be stronger than her in terms of magical cultivation. She didn't feel jealous because of this. Instead, she was very curious about Nian Bing. She was curious about how he cultivated to this level. Long Ling could be said to have grown up in magic gems. Her father, in order to let her understand the true essence of magic faster, began to teach her magic when she was five years old. Although she was only 19 years old now, she already had 14 years of magic cultivation. In addition to her extremely high perception, she had her current achievements.
"Ling 'er, are you very surprised? You have to understand that there is always someone better than you. "Li Hua looked at Long Ling and said with deep meaning in his eyes.
Long Ling nodded and said, "That snowstorm he used just now was really powerful! I've only heard of it from my father before, but I never thought that a snowstorm used for short distance flying could have such a strong attack power. Uncle Li Hua, your magic seems to have reached its peak again. Just now, I didn't even see you chant an incantation and you used a seventh-level spell. I don't know when Ling 'er will reach this level. "
Li Hua smiled bitterly and said, "Are you mocking me? Not to mention me, even your father can't use a seventh-level spell without chanting an incantation. I was too careless and only used a low-level spell to defend myself. By the time I reacted, it was too late to chant an incantation, so I could only use a seventh-level scroll. Sigh, that scroll of mine took a lot of time and your father's help to complete. If I were to sell it, it would be worth at least a hundred purple coins. It's a situation where there is demand but no supply. I'll go find your father now and tell him about this. "
Shi Jiu said with some dissatisfaction, "Teacher Li Hua, is it that important? Maybe that boy also used a scroll just now? "
Li Hua said indifferently, "If I can't even tell if he used a scroll or not, then I can't call myself a sorcerer. Magic can be activated with a scroll, but magic control can't be faked. If I give you a snowstorm scroll, can you control it like he did just now? Not only can he gather the snowstorm so densely, but he can also control it to suddenly change its direction. Although it's not very skillful, but even an ice sorcerer can only control it so well. His control over magic is so strong that it's much better than any of the great magicians on the continent. I really don't know how he trained at such a young age. "After saying this, he looked at Shi Jiu with deep meaning in his eyes, then turned and left.
Li Hua left, and Long Ling woke up from her previous surprise. She muttered, "Uncle Li Hua hasn't smiled for a long time. During the test just now, he actually smiled."
Shi Jiu said unhappily, "I think Teacher Li Hua is a little …. Forget it, let's not care about him. Junior sister, let's go. How about I accompany you for supper?"
Long Ling shook her head and said, "No, senior brother. Today, I realized that in the practice of magic, I'm still so far behind. I don't have any advantage among my peers. I want to seize the opportunity to practice and strive to catch up with Nian Bing as soon as possible. You should practice more too. See you tomorrow. I don't know what father will do when he sees Nian Bing tomorrow. "After saying this, she bid farewell to Shi Jiu and fluttered away.
