"Okay, the next one can come in." Victor shouted in a classroom of Magic School.

In addition to him, there are also mages in several nearby classrooms doing elemental perception tests for students who come to sign up.

The next second, a frustrated child walked out of the classroom. Not everyone has the talent to become a mage, and the vast majority of them have no talent. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many people practicing Battle Aura.

After seeing the depressed peer who was eliminated, Roland became a little nervous, but after clenching his hands, he mustered up the courage to walk in.

"Hello, teacher, my name is Roland, from Nafu City." Roland bowed first after entering.

"Yes." Victor nodded and pursed his lips toward the seat in front of him, "Please sit down."

Roland sat down properly and looked at Victor with a look of anticipation and nervousness.

Victor pushed a crystal on his chest and said softly, "Next, put your hand on this crystal ball. It can determine whether you have magic talent."

His strength is not as high as Claire, so testing other people's magic talents requires the use of certain tools. This crystal ball is a kind of Magic Tool that can test people's magic talents.

Roland After licking his lips, he slowly put his hand up.

The next second, a shocked expression appeared on his face, and he said in an exaggerated tone, "I feel there are a lot of Small Light Orb flying, the colors are colorful, very beautiful!"

Victor: "..."

"I haven't injected the magic yet, but you can feel it?" Victor said helplessly.

Roland was also a little embarrassed after being exposed. After laughing a few times, he added, "Is there a possibility that my talent is too strong? Can I feel it without injecting magic power?"

Victor waved his hand, summoning an emerald green vine from the ground, and gently patted Roland on the head, "There is no such possibility."

Roland was in pain and covered the area where he was hit, and said with an aggrieved face, "No, there is nothing. Why did you hit me?"

"Let me tell you, my grades in school are very good. The teachers all praised me for being smart."

"That has nothing to do with magic talent." Victor said calmly. Magical talent is something you have, and if you don't, you don't. It won't change just because you are excellent in studies or come from a noble family.

"Then I did some work for the lord!" Roland said with pride.

Victor became a little more interested and asked, "What have you done for Lord Claire?"

"There used to be a church pastor who came to our school to preach, and then I used the knowledge taught by the lord to question him. He was very angry."

"Oh." Victor smiled. He had no respect for the authority of the church, so he was quite suitable to be a mage.

But you still have to see if you have magic talent. If you don't have it, it will be useless no matter how suitable you are.

"Okay, we've officially started testing. Please be more honest this time."

Hearing this, Roland became slightly nervous again.

"Come on, I'm not afraid!"

"As I said just now, put your hand on top of the crystal ball." Victor said, slowly injecting magic power into the crystal ball.

And Roland looked shocked and shouted, "I really saw it this time. There were many small light spots, which were different from what I had seen before."

Because of Roland's performance just now, Victor didn't really believe his words. After confirming that Roland was still closing his eyes tightly, he gathered the fire elements into his hands. While letting just gather elements in the hand, they are not shown in the real world.

Before he could ask any questions, Roland took the initiative and said, "Teacher, I saw some small red light spots gathering into a big ball of light. What's going on?"

Victor waved away the fire elements and said, "You can open your eyes now."

Roland opened his eyes in confusion, not understanding what the red Great Light Orb was just now.

Then he asked nervously, "Teacher, do I have magic talent? I heard Melly said that I have talent when I see Small Light Orb."

Victor raised his eyes and glanced at him, and the doubts in his heart were relieved. It turned out to be Melly who told him. No wonder he saw a small light spot as soon as he came in.

"How many light spots did you just see?" Victor asked.

"There are quite a few. I can't count them. There must be thousands." After Roland finished speaking, he asked again, "Is there any connection between these?"

"The more you see, the stronger your perception of elements becomes. Your talent is pretty good."

"Then I actually saw tens of thousands, teacher!" Roland said seriously.

Victor: "..."

"The total number of elements here does not exceed five thousand. How did you see tens of thousands?"

"Do you think there is a possibility that my talent is too strong?"

Victor put down the pen in his hand and said with a serious look, "Then do you think there is a possibility that you have no magic talent at all? You were just fooling around before?"

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! I really saw thousands of Small Light Orb!" Roland waved his hand, as if he was determined to defend his talent to the death.

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. Now there is good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?"

Roland After hesitating for a moment, he responded, "Hear the good news first?"

"The good news is that with your talent, you can enter Magic School."

A hint of joy flashed across Roland's face, and then he asked, "What about the bad news?"

Victor also had a bad smile on his face at this time, "The bad news is, I remember you, your name is Roland, right? I will ask you to get up to answer questions in my classes from now on."

"Ah?" Roland was shocked and looked helpless. If he had known that he had talent, he wouldn't have said so many words! Now that I'm being targeted by the teacher before I go to school, what should I do in the future?

"Get out." Victor waved his hand.

Then he shouted, "The next one can come in!"

There were a lot of people who came to sign up, and Claire had people give them food during the period. Victor The five of them were so busy that they were almost finished by the time it was almost evening.

"Ha!" Victor stretched on his seat.

A total of more than 3,000 people came today, but only about 50 people stayed in the end. This ratio is already good. According to the normal ratio, it would be a hundred to one.

Of course, these fifty people are not the final number. This is just the end of today's work. There are still several days of enrollment to come. In the end, Victor estimates that the total number of students should be around one hundred or two hundred. Although it is not as large as Royal Capital Magic Academy, as a county's Magic School, it can be said to be very good.

What's more, the earldom is just in its infancy. If it develops later, it may be comparable to the scale of Hill City's Magic Academy. As for surpassing Royal Capital Magic Academy, Victor didn't dare to think too much about this. He graduated from the Royal Capital Magic Academy, so he naturally knew how strong Royal Capital Magic Academy was. It was simply a matter of gathering the strength of the entire kingdom to develop Magic Academy. It would be really difficult for a county to surpass him.

Regardless of anything else, Royal Capital Magic Academy's teachers are all Archmage level magicians, and sometimes Archmage teaches, but now High Mage is the only one supporting Nafu City's Magic School. This kind of foundation cannot be supported by the current Griffin County.

Also, the dean of the Royal Capital Magic Academy is Archmage Merlin. According to other students, the highest combat power in the earldom is Lord Claire at Archmage level, which is three levels behind.

But it is not impossible. If Lord Claire is that young, he is Archmage. In the future, he may have the opportunity to advance to the Dharma Saint. Then he will have a chance.
