Chapter 36 Duel
"Magic exists in every corner of the world, but if you want to use the power of magic, you must undergo special learning and training. Even so, only a very small number of people can use the power of magic. These people are called magicians.
I must correct one thing here, that is, wizards and magicians are different. Wizards' abilities come from blood, while magicians come from spiritual power and self-cultivation..."
In the Crow Tower, Lin Xuan was teaching the first batch of students. He had no experience as a teacher, but as the world's first magic lecturer, no one would say anything.
After nearly a month of screening, a total of sixteen children in the first batch passed Lin Xuan's test, and their mental strength reached the minimum requirements for magicians. Most of them came from various noble families. But there were also four
This child was born into a poor family, even a homeless child. The main reason for this is that the geographical location of Crow Island is still somewhat remote. In a medieval era, it was still quite difficult for many children from civilian families to travel to such a place.
Difficult.
Lin Xuan synthesized what he had learned and divided the entire magic course into several main categories: elements, potions, alchemy, spells, and general. According to the different talents and hobbies of each student, each student will have a major course.
, while taking an elective course. Each category has one class per day, Lin Xuan gives some basic explanations, and the rest is for them to practice on their own. After all, magic requires talent and accumulation, and the role of the teacher is
Just to lead the way.
The most important course in the entire Magic Academy is the practical class. Students in each subject are required to use what they have learned in practical combat as much as possible. There will be a practical confrontation every three days. Lin Xuan is the teacher, and
is the referee. All students he deems unqualified will be punished.
What surprised him was that the first batch of students had surprisingly good talents. At the beginning of this magical era, geniuses appeared in droves, which gave Lin Xuan the feeling that a great era of magic was coming. A student from a certain small school
The aristocratic girl named Katie has a talent in potions that puts Lin Xuan to shame.
Lin Xuan rummaged through all the books in the Crow Tower and found books about alchemy in this world. There were even many books about magic. However, all of these books were shelved in the cabinet and did not flow outside at all. Lin Xuan
Xuan combined some basic knowledge of his own potions and the potions of this world to develop a potions system specifically for Katie.
Elemental magic is undoubtedly born for war. Imagine what it would look like when hundreds of magicians stand on the city wall and use fireball at the same time. In the face of the enhanced version of fireball, no amount of legions of dead people can do anything.
It's just cannon fodder.
Even if the newly admitted students have good mental talents, there is still little time left for them. It is very likely that the White Walkers will have crossed the Great Wall before they have formed a reliable combat effectiveness.
So Lin Xuan also responded to the lack of time. From the first moment he started school, Lin Xuan was taking the exam. Combination magic was the best solution Lin Xuan thought of. The elemental system was Lin Xuan's.
Xuan is best at magic and happens to be the best choice for combining magic.
Combination magic requires a high degree of tacit understanding between casters. In a society with extremely rough class divisions, this is a problem that Lin Xuan cannot imagine.
"I am from the noble Hightower family, why should I cooperate with these untouchables?" This sentence came from a thirteen-year-old child. What is most interesting is the matter-of-factness when he said this sentence, even the adults around him
Most children think the same way. You can tell by looking at their faces that what they are thinking is the same.
But Lin Xuan's next words completely confused the child named Kyle Hightower. "Are you? Didn't your family tell you? Since you came to this school, you are no longer
Born into a noble family. As a mage, what we pursue is the secret of magic.
, the true meaning of power, worldly vanity should not be something you talk about. What's more, even worldly honors are obtained by your ancestors and have nothing to do with you. So if you think you are noble
, then prove it yourself.”
"Show me how noble you are. Ray, teach him a lesson."
Lei is a wanderer on Crow Island who has no name. Sasan and Lisa used detection magic to find him. Lin Xuan got the name Lei casually for him. His mental talent is not very outstanding.
It's just a passing grade. But Lei, who has been hanging out at the dock since he was a child, has amazing fighting talent. And this talent also reflects
Now it's magic. He has the strongest practical ability among all Lin Xuan's students. Even Sasan, who has drunk the Fountain of Deep Shadow and is extremely talented, and Lisa, who has the physique of a witch, can't compare with him. Maybe.
It was Lin Xuan who helped him escape from the lower class of society. This child, who was only fourteen years old, had a fanatical admiration for Lin Xuan.
Upon hearing Lin Xuan's order, Lei stood up immediately and made a standard mage salute to Kyle.
"Kyle, as a noble member of the Hightower family, what should you do when faced with a challenge? Face the challenge bravely? Or choose to bring shame to your family."
Kyle was stunned. His mental talent was very high, and he could be said to be among the best among all students. But in terms of combat talent and control of his own magic power, he was far behind. He had seen Lei's battle.
, knowing that his opponent was far superior to him. But in the end he accepted the challenge. Born in a noble family, he knew that if he chose to escape, there would be no good results either at school or at home.
The two of them started preparing the first magic spell in unison. In fact, in more than a month, the most talented students could barely master three or so elementary element magics. They were nothing more than fireball, wind candle,
As well as basic elemental magic such as lightning strikes. Among them, Wind Candle is just a magic spell with no lethality at all, so there are even fewer magics to choose from.
Kyle chose Lightning Strike for the first time. This is also the spell that most students would choose. In their opinion, being able to master the thunder in the sky is an extremely cool thing. But surprisingly, Lei did not choose the Tired Strike spell.
, but chose the seemingly innocuous magic of Wind Candle.
Both sides need the assistance of spells to complete their magic. The wind candle technique is simpler, so Lei completed his magic first. The reason why it is called wind candle, as the name suggests, is to blow out the candle. You can imagine the purpose of this spell.
The damage effect is almost zero. But Lei chose this magic.
Lei was the first to take action, and the Wind Candle Technique went straight to Kyle's face. Kyle didn't even dodge. In his opinion, even if the magic hit him, there would be no harm, so there was no need to worry. But Lin
Xuan understood Lei's intention instantly. He saw that the wind candle technique accurately hit Kyle's mouth.
At this time, Kyle was at the last moment of the spell, and suddenly a breath of cool wind came into his mouth. For a moment, the last spell was stuck in his throat. Although it was a basic spell, it still suffered a certain degree of backlash.
