After the competition, Sylutia spent a lot of time and finally walked out of the crowd surrounding her, and then arrived at the houseboat where she would stay tonight.
The shape of the so-called houseboat is like the bottom of an inverted boat, with thick grass blades as the roof. Between the roof and the wall made of adobe bricks, a layer of wood is used to separate a gap for ventilation, so that a relatively dry environment can be maintained in humid places. As for the bottom of the house, there are also wooden stumps to support it, so that the floor and the ground are separated and vacated to prevent moisture.
"Gale Season, such a house can withstand strong winds better, which is also a local characteristic." The teacher casually introduced it to the students, and then invited everyone to have dinner next to the bonfire.
Dinner was stewed taro, corn, and potatoes. No extra meat was prepared, because there were many students, and a lot of temporary preparations would easily go bad. Moreover, these students were also satisfied with this meat meal.
Gathering around the campfire, many students were still talking about the competition just now. Many students were surprised at how powerful Sylutia was, but some students who had not seen it live were not convinced.
"Isn't it just silk thread Weaving Flying Bird? It sounds like that. Nothing to be surprised about."
"I have mastered the "Chain Fireball" spell now, but it is relatively slow to cast. If there are two companions together, no matter how powerful she is, they can't stop her."
"The so-called "geniuses" are at best the strength of three ordinary students. What's so surprising?" This student explained his reasoning and thoughts, thinking that he was just a little behind compared to Hedra.
In his opinion, on the battlefield, a powerful soldier is at most equal to three ordinary soldiers. Even if the former is rarer, it will not affect the overall situation, but that's it.
"This kind of thinking is like this when the gap is not obvious." A teacher sitting by the fire slowly explained.
"However, time will continue to pass, just like two sides of an acute angle. They are very close at first, and then become farther and farther away. The gap becomes wider and wider. In the end, it cannot be filled up by quantity at all."
"One Sixth Order's Mage can easily defeat three Fifth Order's Transcendent. If you switch to the fourth level, the number can be doubled several times. Then if you switch to the third level ordinary Mage, it is meaningless to him."
"The reason why you think so now is because you are still in the apprenticeship stage and have not officially entered the third level. When time goes by, ten years from now, I am afraid that I will have to rely on those geniuses who have taught me." He shook his head slowly.
As a school teacher, he has experienced this feeling and experience many times, so he understands very well that even if he is now in the same classroom, both are second-level apprentices, and they seem to have little difference and equal status, but as long as time goes back a few years, the gap will widen to the point of sighing.
After the teacher finished speaking, many students fell silent, and many began to think about the present from a more distant future perspective, and found that this seemed to be the case.
"Then, how far can Hedra go, teacher, will she be promoted to Sixth Order?" In the eyes of many students, becoming a professor at Sixth Order is the top level of the Mage Alliance.
"Probably. The reason why I can't make a definite judgment is because I haven't reached Sixth Order yet. It's a bit overwhelming for you to force me to say it." The teacher smiled and complained a little.
"Other students don't know, but "Xinke" should be very promising. Some time ago, she went to participate in "Vichia Academy" Silver Bell Festival, and was recognized by Professor Melen, who said that her talent and talent are very good, and she has a high possibility of Impact Sixth Order in the future."
Xinke, Asura District The first-ranked student in the evaluation of the teachers has the awakened "Blood of Golden Honey", is good at bees and music conducting, and can easily control groups of "second-order" bees to perform and challenge.
The students carried wooden bowls, ate a simple dinner, and listened to the teacher's conversation. Occasionally, some people walked past the bonfire and went to the boathouse to rest and sleep, and experience the local characteristic living environment.
On the other side of the bonfire, Sylutia, together with Lovier and Aurora, were sitting on the horizontal logs and enjoying a simple dinner.
"Although it is stewed in water, the taste is surprisingly good." The stewed taro is very soft and glutinous, and the light sweet taste of the corn is not monotonous.
While Sylutia was eating, the two people on the side also chatted about the competition just now.
"How did Hedra avoid the opponent's attack?" Aurora also analyzed it for a while, but couldn't figure out how Sylutia solved the problem.
"This..." Sylutia was thinking about how to explain.
If she lied at this time, she might have to tell more lies later to make up for it, and she didn't want to deliberately hide such a thing.
"Actually, I know a little bit of "Breathing Technique", which can slightly change the pulse of the blood, so that spell won't do much harm to me." She tried to downplay the difficulty, making people think it was just a trick.
"That's it." Aurora has never practiced Breathing Technique, so he didn't know how difficult it was. Then his attention was quickly diverted by other things, so he didn't continue to ask.
"If you sprinkle some salt on this potato, it will taste much better." Lovier Use a fork to carefully pick up a piece, slowly put it in your mouth and chew it.
"This is simple." Sylutia thought for a while, stood up, dug out a small bottle from his suitcase, and then added some to the potatoes on Lovier's fork.
"Actually, you can bake it yourself to make it crispier." The girl suggested.
"Really, let me try." Lovier finally remembered that he seemed to be Transcendent of "Blazing Sun" Aspect Power. He turned the potatoes on the fork, and a faint ring of fire spell appeared around the potatoes, baking them.
"Sure enough, it tastes quite delicious, but it's a little hot."
"Let me do it." Aurora took it, a bit of cold breath surrounded her hand, and then turned into a small vortex, wrapping the potato and cooling it down.
"That's good. It shouldn't be too cold." After it was almost done, Aurora handed it back to Lovier.
"Winter Slumber" and "Blazing Sun", these two roommates are both Japanese, Transcendent, Sylutia suddenly thought of it.
If summer comes in the future, she should be able to rely on Aurora's ability to cool down the dormitory, so that she can live more comfortably even without air conditioning. She thought of this inexplicably, just like when she takes a shower in the dormitory, she often borrows Lovier's crystal ball to heat it, and usually Lovier gives it Charging.
With my thoughts flying, Sylutia suddenly felt that it was a very happy thing to have these two roommates.
After dinner, the students returned to the boathouse to sleep and rest. Sylutia and the three of them also slept together on the large wooden bed tonight and fell asleep unconsciously.
As the night progressed, the bonfires in the rest areas gradually extinguished, leaving only a few places for vigil, with teachers and students taking turns to guard them.
When it was approaching twelve o'clock, a hurried figure came from the distance of the wilderness, approached the bonfire, greeted the guarding teacher, and sat down against the fire.
"Sorry for coming so late, but I finally finished the experiment before I left." The speaker was a girl wearing a smart green and white skirt. She had golden hair and pure red eyes. If it was Sylutia here, you would find that the other party's features are very similar to the Iona you once knew.
"It's good that you're here, Xinke. It's rare that we all come out to play together this time. If you are absent, you may not have the chance to make up for it in the future." The teacher comforted her with a smile, and then heated up a dinner left for her and brought it over.
"Eat something."
"Thank you, teacher." Xinke took it and ate it slowly. The teacher also told her what happened today.
"In the evening when you didn't come, School No. 24's "Malo" competed with School No. 89's "Hedra"."
"What's the result?" The girl was a little curious.
"Hedra won a great victory. Malo was knocked into the air by Flying Bird and rolled on the grass until it was covered in mud." The teacher commented with a smile.
"This guy also needs someone to control his arrogance."
"Is the famous "Hedra" so strong?" Xinke was a little surprised. She actually knew "Kuras Blood-Shock Technique" before and knew that it was not so easy to deal with. Even she might lose accidentally.
"It's really amazing, whether it's reaction speed, flexibility and precision in manipulating spells, etc."
"When she was in Silver Bell Festival, she went to the Rorick Academy and was still in Freshman Tournament. She got the ranking and defeated several third-level official Mage." The teacher recalled and commented.
"We only found out about this incident after the fact, and it is only now spreading."
"A third-level opponent is indeed very strong." Xinke put down the empty wooden bowl.
"I'm looking forward to the day when I can compete against her in the future."
"There will come a day. You are all the best students in this class, and you will meet sooner or later in the future."
