Sprint glanced at Katrina and shook his head. Without saying anything, he walked to the examination room.
Ever since they met in Sturk, even when they were on the dangerous sailing ship, the two of them had never stopped competing with each other. They would often ask each other tricky questions, and when they could cast spells, they would also compete with each other in terms of casting speed and magic control. However, Sprint was always the winner, which made Katrina very unhappy.
Seeing Sprint's disdainful attitude, Katrina stomped her feet and snorted, before she followed him.
"Relax. The test is easy." Lucien raised his chin and pointed at the examination room, hinting the three apprentices to go inside.
Annick and the other apprentices nodded heavily, "Yes, Mr. Evans." Then they left nervously.
Lazar put his hands in the pockets of his double-breasted suit. Seeing the respectful attitude of Annick and the other apprentices, he smiled, "Lucien, are they your apprentices? How are they doing in arcana? "
"They've only been learning for a month. How good can they be? I'm just asking them to practice a lot so that they can grasp the basics as soon as possible. In this way, they'll be able to embark on the real path of arcana and magic in the future. " Lucien answered casually. He was not worried at all that Annick and the other apprentices could pass the test. At least, they were much better than the other apprentices.
Lazar turned around and looked at Lucien, "A lot of repetitive practice? Aren't you afraid that they'll lose their arcana talent? "
"Compared to the real geniuses that people can only look up to, ordinary children with arcana and magic talent can only go further through hard work, perseverance, and perseverance. They don't have the talent, so they have to make up for it in other aspects. Otherwise, how can they catch up with the others? " Lucien smiled, but he looked a little serious. "The tempering of the way of thinking must be carried out through hard training. It cannot be taken out and cultivated alone. Otherwise, it will be like a house without a foundation that will collapse with a single poke."
Lazar was just chatting. He was not in the mood to debate, "Hehe, Lucien, you're very talented as a teacher."
"Of course, my nickname is' Professor '." Lucien could only say this in his mind, but he changed the topic, "Lazar, do you have a lot of double-breasted black gowns? Why do I feel like you haven't changed your clothes … "
Lazar laughed heartily. "This is my magic robe! You don't think that only the gloomy hooded robes of the ancient Magic Empire are magic robes, do you? Now, there were black gowns, evening gowns, tuxedos, and cake dresses. Magic robes of any style could be custom-made. Of course, there are also magic robes that can be changed at will, but they are more expensive. "
"How much does a level-2 magic robe cost? I happen to be lacking one. "Lucien was slightly excited when he heard this.
Lazar pointed at his black double-breasted gown, "Night's Praise, level-two, middle-level standard magic robe, two hundred Quintal or arcana points. Made by Wasim's Alchemy Shop, with a hundred years of reputation, good quality, low price."
"You're worth it …" Lucien added in his mind and calculated his wealth. "I only have sixty Thales and nine arcana points now. By the way, Lazar, is the exchange rate between arcana points and Quintal one-to-one? "
On the journey from Djibouti to the Sturk, Lucien did not mistreat himself.
Lazar nodded, "Yes, but the higher the level, the more useful arcana points will be. At least in Allyn, arcana points are much more useful than Thales. According to those greedy bankers, arcana points are guaranteed by the Congress with its own credit. In fact, it took me a long time to save enough money to buy a magic robe. Fortunately, after becoming a formal sorcerer, it's not hard to find a job in Allyn. Ten Quintal or arcana points per month is not a problem at all. Plus the income from the improved spells, I can buy a middle-level level-two magic item in about two years. "
"Do you need me to lend you some money? I haven't used the thirty arcana points I got from Burning Hand yet. Haha, I believe that you can pay me back, Lucien. That apprentice-level spell will definitely be studied by a lot of arcanists who want to study and improve it. "
Lucien smiled, "Thank you, Lazar, for your kindness. But I still have some materials that I can exchange for. "The high-quality Wave Stone was also very expensive as a raw material.
Lazar did not try to hide his envy, "Lucien, guys like you who inherited ancient magic are really lucky. You must have a lot of materials or magic items."
Lazar and Lazar chatted casually. Soon, the door of the examination room was opened. Heidi rushed out first and yelled happily, "Mr. Evans, the questions are so easy!"
Layria followed her, her black ponytail bouncing along with her running, "Yes, it's much worse than the exercises you gave us, Mr. Evans!"
"Haha, it's good that it's easy. What do you think, Annick? "Lucien smiled and nodded, then he asked Annick, who was the third one to walk out of the examination room.
Annick smiled shyly and scratched his fluffy hair, "It's fine, it's fine. It's all thanks to your guidance, Mr. Evans. "
"You think it's easy because you don't know how to do it, right?" One of the apprentices behind them couldn't help but say angrily, "Sprint, don't you agree?"
Sprint's proud look faded a lot, "Most of the questions are easy, but some of them are quite difficult. I'm not sure if I can do it."
"You think so too, Sprint?" Katrina was a bit relieved after hearing Sprint's words. So, it was really because the questions were too difficult, and it was not because she didn't learn them well.
"Yeah, it's really hard. My head hurts from thinking about it." The other magic apprentices all agreed.
Seeing the door of the examination room closed again, Katrina hesitated for a second and asked, "Sprint, how did you analyze and construct the apprentice-level spell, Strike at the Undead?"
"I did …" Sprint did not have much confidence in the answer, so he was no longer proud. He quickly answered for Katrina's confirmation.
The other apprentices also hurried to ask other people's answers, trying to figure out how many answers they got. The room became noisy and noisy.
Heidi looked at them confusedly, "But it's really easy!"
Layria was also confused, but when she heard the apprentices talking about the answers, she couldn't help but move closer.
"This question should be …"
"No, no, it should be calculated like this …"
"What about you? How did you answer it? "
Olmos, Annick and Heidi all joined them. Only Lucien and Lazar were looking at them with a smile on their faces.
When they finished checking the answers, it was already half past ten. The apprentices were anxiously waiting for the result. None of them said anything. The atmosphere was very quiet.
Suddenly, the door of the examination room slowly opened. The apprentices all looked at the door nervously.
Simeon walked out with a document in his hand and read it seriously, "After the assessment, I announce the result."
The apprentices all held their breaths. Even Annick, Layria and Heidi, who thought the test was easy, were a bit nervous.
"The first level is for the apprentices with excellent arcana foundation. They are Annick, Layria and Heidi, and they are all in the school of Astrology and the school of Element."
"What? Why are they here?! "
"Annick? Layria? Heidi? "
"Why are they not Sprint and Katrina?"
The apprentices all shouted. They did not expect this result at all.
Sprint and Katrina's faces instantly turned pale. They were defeated by the apprentices whom they did not consider as their opponents at all!
They stared at Simeon with hope and doubt in their eyes, hoping that he would say the word "wrong".
However, Simeon's serious voice broke their illusion, "If you don't want to believe it, you can discuss the basic arcana with the three apprentices."
No apprentices dared to doubt the credibility of a level two arcanist and sorcerer. They all accepted the fact silently. Meanwhile, they all looked at Lucien who was standing outside the corridor. Some of them regretted that they did not admit their mistakes, some hated that they did not have the courage to stand out, and some were jealous that Annick and the other apprentices were so lucky. Otherwise, they would have gotten the best result today.
"The second level includes those who have a solid foundation in arcana and have reached the level of formal apprentices. They are Sprint, Katrina, and Olmos. Sprint and Katrina are inclined to the school of Force Field, the school of Electromagnetism, and the school of Element. Olmos is inclined to the school of Summoning and the school of Necromancy."
… …
Simeon read the result, which made some apprentices happy and some frustrated. In the end, he said, "Annick, Layria, Heidi, Sprint, and Katrina are going to the Magic School of Douglas, and Olmos is going to the Magic School of Allyn …"
Simeon arranged the apprentices to go to different magic schools according to their arcana, magic level, and casting inclination. However, they were all in the five magic schools in Allyn. He did not ask them to go to the magic schools in other counties or even other countries.
When Layria followed Simeon to the office of the Apprentice Assessment Department, something suddenly crossed her mind. "Mr. Evans, are you going to stay in Allyn?" She looked at Lucien, "Are you going to stay in Allyn? Will I be able to see you again? "Her black eyes seemed to be covered by a layer of mist.
Heidi and Annick also looked at Lucien with tears in their eyes, full of strong feelings of farewell.
"As long as there are no accidents, I think I'll stay in Allyn for a long time. If I have time, I'll go to the Douglas Magic School to visit you. "Lucien smiled and waved his hand.
"Really? That's great! "Heidi and Layria hugged each other and smiled happily, but there were still traces of tears in their eyes.
Annick grinned and turned his head, not wanting others to see his expression.
Teenagers at this age were always the most emotional.
Behind them, Sprint had been looking at his toes with his head lowered. He was very quiet and did not say a word. Slowly, he followed the other apprentices into the office. Katrina pursed her lips and stared at Lucien. When the other apprentices entered the office, she suddenly bowed to Lucien and said, "It's my fault."
Then she quickly ran into the office, not giving Lucien a chance to say anything.
"What an enviable youth!" Lazar sighed with emotion.
…
After getting the certificate from Simeon, Lucien and Lazar went to the Sorcerer Administrative Department first.
"By the way, Lucien, have you thought about what word to add after your name on the paper?" Lazar asked curiously on their way.
Lucien answered with a poker face, "Lucien D. Evans."
"What?" Lazar looked at Lucien confusedly.
Lucien smiled, "I'm just kidding. I want to use Lucien Evans X."
X means unknown and mysterious, and it's also the abbreviation of Lucien's last name.
