The early morning sun shone on the earth, illuminating the entire city.
In a spacious hall that was beautifully decorated, Magi were walking around, shuttling back and forth in front of the counters, looking very busy.
If one looked closely, they would find that these Magi were all enveloped by an obscure force field, and they had slight spiritual force vibrations. They were all official Magi.
"Hello, is this the registration area for the Jade Hand?"
A gentle voice sounded from one of the counters.
It was a young Magus wearing a white robe with golden edges. He looked like he had just come of age, and he stood in front of the counter, his handsome face looking at a female acolyte in charge of registration.
"Hello, this is the registration area for the Jade Hand. May I ask who you are?"
The female acolyte gently raised her head to look at Adil, and a warm smile appeared on her face as she asked Adil.
"I am Adil Farcus, and I am here to take part in the examination here."
Looking at the female acolyte in charge of registration, Adil's expression did not change as he spoke to her.
Hearing Adil's words, the female acolyte's eyes lit up, and she looked at Adil with a more serious gaze.
The Jade Hand was a famous large Magus organisation in the area, and there were many experienced Potion Masters in it. They were very famous in the Mason region.
In order to join such a Magus organisation, apart from being an official Magus, one also needed to be proficient in Potion Making. This was a very rare talent.
Not long after, after Adil had registered some things, he received a black certificate from the counter. There was an image of an emerald engraved on it, and there were many orderly magic runes on it.
This was proof that one was allowed to take part in the examination, and it was the first step to joining a large Magus organisation.
Although official Magi were popular, Magus organisations could not accept just anyone. They would definitely conduct a detailed examination of one's identity and background, as well as past information.
In this regard, Adil did not have any problems. His past was very easy to check. The Northern Plains was not a remote place. At most, it would take some time to investigate, and he easily passed the verification of his identity.
After getting the certificate, Adil followed the flow of people to one side of the hall. He walked along the corner and came to another spacious room.
The room was very big, and there were hundreds of chairs inside. However, there were only a dozen or so people sitting on them, making the whole room look a lot more spacious.
"They're all official sorcerers."
Casually finding a place to sit down, Adil could not help but sigh as he sensed the aura of the surrounding Magi.
The surrounding Magi all emitted different auras. Some of them had a strong smell of blood, some were as warm as a spring breeze, and some were filled with a tyrannical force field, which made them look like they were not to be trifled with.
Magi who were able to advance to become official Magi were not simple. Most of the Magi who were sitting with Adil were wild Magi without any background. Being able to advance to become official Magi without any support showed that they were not simple.
Among the surrounding Magi, Adil also saw some Magi who looked different from normal people.
Some of them had thick hair on their faces, and their faces did not look like humans, but more like wild beasts. Some of them were very tall. If they stood up, they would be at least two meters tall. Their muscles made them look more like barbarians.
These were all Magi of different races, or rather, they had part of the bloodline of other races in their bodies, just like how half of Adil's blood flowed in his body.
Those with thick hair on their bodies most likely had some orc blood in them. As for the tall ones, they were a minority in the Mason region. Although they were also considered humans, their bodies were generally much taller than normal people.
While Adil was sizing up the others, the other Magi were also silently sizing up Adil.
The Magi who entered this room were basically wild Magi who wanted to join a Magus Organisation. To a certain extent, the other Magi were hidden competitors, so they naturally had to pay attention to them.
* Ka! *
With a soft sound, a large door opened, and a few figures walked in from outside, arriving at the podium at the front of the room.
There were three figures in total, and their bodies were shrouded in a strange force field. Powerful spiritual force was faintly vibrating on the surface of their bodies, causing energy particles to gather on the surface of their bodies, emitting waves of light.
Sensing the aura of these three people, the Magi present could not help but feel a sense of solemnity, feeling a sense of nervousness.
"As expected of a large Magus Organisation. The first move is from a Magus in the transformation stage." Beside him, Adil could faintly hear the mutterings of the other Magi, and their emotions were complicated.
In the Mason region, although the number of official Magi was much higher than other places, the number of Magi in the transformation stage was still very few. Moreover, their status was much higher than that of ordinary official Magi.
Among ordinary organisations, as long as there was a Magus in the transformation stage overseeing them, they could already be considered a medium-sized organisation. And now, in front of Adil stood three Magi in the transformation stage.
"I am the person in charge of the Blackthorn Academy. Those who have signed up for the Blackthorn Academy, follow me immediately!"
Walking to the podium, a middle-aged Magus with a hooked nose and black robes spoke first. His body was shrouded in a bloody crimson halo, and the spiritual force waves emitted from it caused many of the Magi present to furrow their brows.
"Those from the Griffin Academy, follow me." Beside him, a middle-aged Magus dressed in a noble's robe, who looked like a noble, spoke solemnly. His body was also vibrating with a force field, intimidating the many Magi below.
"Those who have signed up for the Emerald Hand, please follow me."
The last Magus, who looked like an ordinary old man, spoke. His expression was calm, as if he did not care about anything.
They did not seem to care about the Magi in front of them, and after stating the organisations they represented, they turned and walked out the door.
Among the three of them, many Magi did not hesitate and walked towards the person in charge of the organisation they had signed up for.
Adil observed carefully for a while and discovered that the number of people heading towards the Blackthorn Academy was the highest. There were slightly fewer people from the Griffin Academy, but the numbers were still not bad. The Emerald Hand that he had signed up for had the least number of people. Including him, there were only three people who had signed up.
Naturally, there was a reason for this.
In the Mason District, the Blackthorn Academy's style was very ruthless. There were many Blood Magi in the academy, and they were famous for their valiant battle strength and their crazy style.
Although this kind of academy was a little dangerous, the recruitment requirements were more lax. They did not care much about a Magus's identity and other aspects, and only focused on battle strength. This was very suitable for many wandering Magi.
Griffin Academy was a strict academy, and many of its regulations were more stringent. As long as there was a problem with one's identity, they would not be able to pass the examination. Even if they passed the examination, they would have to sign a strict contract, so naturally, they were not very popular.
As for the Emerald Hand, although the treatment was more generous and other aspects were more lax, the recruitment requirements were too harsh for ordinary Magi. Only Potion Masters could pass.
Following the path to the front, Adil followed a few Magi beside him and arrived at a spacious laboratory.
In the laboratory, there were many small experiment tables with many things placed on them. Most of them were the equipment needed to refine potions.
Looking at these things, the eyes of the three Magi participating in the examination, including Adil, flashed with a hint of understanding.
These Magi would naturally inquire about the academy that they wanted to join, and the contents of the examination were of utmost importance.
The Emerald Hand was an organization that was famous for refining potions. The organization was very concerned about the Magi's attainments in Potioneering, so the contents of the examination were naturally related to refining potions.
"Refine three different basic potions within two hours. Those who pass will be qualified."
Arriving here, the grey-robed old Magus who was walking at the front stopped and looked at Adil and the other two behind him. "The ingredients are on the side. As the examinees, you have an hour to prepare. If there is anything you need to prepare, you can bring it up during this time."
Hearing his words, the two Magi beside Adil nodded. After hesitating for a moment, they walked to the counter at the side, looking like they needed to prepare something.
The difficulty of refining basic potions was not very high. Since the three Magi present dared to participate in the examination, they naturally had some standards. Refining basic potions was naturally not a problem.
The real difficulty lay in time. To refine three different basic potions within two hours, the requirements for time and accuracy were very high. If there were a few failures during the refining process, it could lead to a lack of time.
In order to ensure that they could pass, they naturally had to choose the few potions that required the least time to refine and were the most familiar with.
Seeing the two competitors go to the counter to prepare, Adil did not move. He directly bowed to the grey-robed old Magus in front of him and smiled. "I have no problems. We can start now."
"Oh?" Looking at Adil, the old Magus was a little surprised, but he still nodded in agreement.
Under the surprised gazes of the other Magi, Adil directly took a set of ingredients from the counter and walked to the experiment table in front.
"Only taking a set of ingredients. Is he really confident, or is he just being arrogant?"
Looking at Adil, the grey-robed old Magus's expression was calm, but he thought to himself in Silence.
Under his gaze, Adil began his own actions.
A light blue flame began to ignite, and in front of Adil, a few ingredients were quickly processed and then quickly placed into the groove according to the sequence.
His movements were very fast, but also very precise, like a high-precision machine. There was not the slightest deviation in his movements, and it looked very smooth.
The Magi present more or less had some understanding of Potioneering. At this moment, seeing Adil's smooth movements, they were immediately stunned.
