Chapter 185 Third-Class Mage Apprentice
Hand's life has calmed down again.
Because a breakthrough was imminent, Gaode, who was the top scorer in the first academic year, did not take any elective courses in the second academic year.
This has been noticed by many students.
However, with Gaode’s astonishing score of 36 credits in the first year, no one would be stupid enough to think that Gaode has exhausted all its talents and only treats it as a top-notch academic who is not in a hurry to choose courses.
Dormitory, training room, rune workshop.
This is the three points and one line of Gaode today.
He regards the promotion as a "big test". The closer the big test is, the more he must relax and stay in good condition.
Hence Gothe didn't let himself be too tense, and took a rare moment to relax.
During this period, he took the time to construct the spell model of [Mechanical Switching Technique].
At this point, the number of spells in the spell library has reached "42".
But after this, Gaode could not find any way to expand the number of spells.
After all, he has mastered all the open tricks list in the academy.
And in the Principality of Xien, where else has a richer reserve of spell formulas than Cyris College?
Definitely not.
It is impossible for him to publicly purchase rare spell formulas.
Hence the official ban on private trading of spell formulas.
Repetition day after day.
Gaode's practice progress has also been steadily improving step by step.
The 6th of the Misty Month.
Gaode walked out of the first-level training room.
Exactly 33 days have passed since the last breakthrough.
The last level of the guidance method finally broke through at this moment.
This means that his mage level has reached the third-level mage apprentice.
Norlan calendar year 9655, on the 2nd of the Awakening month, Gothe came to this world.
At that time, his meditation technique only manifested five petals, and the total amount of mana was only enough for him to cast five tricks in one breath.
After spending six hundred and four days, Gaode pushed the progress of both the guidance method and the meditation method to perfection.
Compared with the "travelers" in the novels of previous lives, this cultivation speed is indeed not very decent.
But in the Principality of Xi'en, this is already an extremely talented mage.
At least Gaode is quite satisfied with the progress.
"Are you sure you want to apply for the Ascension Water now?"
The committee, or the committee member Rachel, looked at Gothe and was surprised.
If I remember correctly, Gaode was only qualified to be a second-class mage apprentice during the entrance test.
It has only been a year, and the mage level has been upgraded to a third-class mage apprentice?
“Yes, Commissioner Rachel, I feel that I am ready. It’s time to try to be promoted to a first-level mage.”
"Just yesterday." Gao De said honestly.
Hearing this, Commissioner Rachel couldn't help but frown.
"How old are you this year?"
"Fourteen."
"Fourteen. That's still young. Don't be so anxious. It's the golden period to be promoted to a first-level mage before the age of twenty."
"You have just reached the third-level mage apprenticeship. You should accumulate one or two years before trying to be promoted to a first-level mage."
"Expertise has a great impact on a mage's future. If you accumulate one or two more years as a third-level mage apprentice, you will have the opportunity to awaken more powerful expertise when you are promoted to a first-level mage." Commissioner Rachel taught earnestly.
There are actually many students at Sires Academy who have reached the level of third-level mage apprentice within one or two years after entering the academy.
But most people will stay as a third-level mage apprentice for another year or two before trying to be promoted.
"Look at Jelika, she stayed as a third-level mage apprentice for more than three years before being promoted to a first-level mage." As if she was afraid that Gothe would not listen to his advice, Commissioner Rachel cited Jelika as an example.
"No, Commissioner Rachel, in my philosophy, mage practice must move forward, and I don't want to waste too much time in the mage apprenticeship stage." Gaode insisted on going his own way.
Of course, the reason is that he had already accumulated almost all the information before he reached the level of third-level mage apprentice.
"Okay." Commissioner Rachel did not interfere with the students' right to make decisions. Since Gao De insisted, she would no longer persuade her.
"But before that, you need to test your mage level." She added.
The time when a student reaches the third-level mage apprenticeship has always been a huge part of the weight of applying for the Ascension Water.
This is to prevent students from maliciously increasing their "weight" by reporting in advance before their mage level has reached the level of third-level mage apprentice in order to pass the application for the Ascension Water.
Gaode nodded and had no objection.
"You come with me." Commissioner Rachel stood up and said.
The world of mages is not like the immortal cultivators in novels, where one can know the other person’s level of cultivation with just one look.
Unless the mage is willing to cooperate with others, it is difficult for others except the mage himself to accurately know his mage level.
Even if it cooperates, some external means are needed for testing.
Under the guidance of Commissioner Rachel, Gothe came to a quiet room.
The quiet room is small and empty.
But on the ground, complex traces of runes can be clearly seen.
Gothe knew at first glance that this was a complex testing magic circle.
"Go in and stand in the center."
Councilor Rachel points directly to the center of the magic circle.
Gaode nodded slightly, calmed down and stepped inside.
As Gothe stood still, a slight fluctuation of magic power immediately rippled in the air.
The runes that seemed to be sleeping on the ground gradually lit up at this moment, and the light intertwined into a complex pattern, wrapping Gothe's entire body in it.
The test has begun.
Gothe could feel an unknown force, starting from his feet, rising slowly along his body, and then stopping when it reached the center of his eyebrows.
The next moment, this power seemed to turn into a fine needle, piercing his eyebrows, trying to penetrate into it.
Gothe's mental power has unconsciously formed a barrier to block this power.
“Hold on.” Commissioner Rachel’s voice came to his ears.
When Gao De heard this, he knew that this was the test method.
He closed his eyes tightly, concentrated his attention, and concentrated on resisting the penetration of the "needle".
As time goes by, the light of the magic circle becomes more and more dazzling, and then after reaching a peak, it all dissipates.
Gothe slowly opened his eyes and looked at Commissioner Rachel aside.
"If you can persist for more than thirty seconds, it means that your mental power has reached the level of a third-class mage apprentice."
"Next, come with me to test your magic power." Commissioner Rachel said.
The mana test is even simpler. Casting twenty cantrips in one breath is enough to pass the test.
After finishing the test, the two returned to the office room.
"I will help you submit the application. Based on your age, as well as your credits and grade point performance in the first year, this application for Ascension Water will definitely be approved."
Commissioner Rachel took out a document, filled in Gaode's information, and after Gaode confirmed it was correct, she said to him.
"Approximately how many days will it take for me to get the Ascension Water?" Gothe couldn't help but ask.
"It will be down within a week. If it's quick, three days will be enough." Commissioner Rachel said conservatively.
"Thank you, Commissioner Rachel." Gao De thanked him.
Leaving from the committee, Gothe slowly let out a breath.
He thought for a while and then headed in the direction of Gavin Building.
He had to go and tell He Xi that he had submitted an application, and when the water of spiritual ascension came down, he would try to be promoted to a first-level mage in the next few days.
The other thing is to ask He Xi about his experience in raising the ring.
After all, for Gaode, promotion is still something full of unknowns.
In addition to being a third-level rune constructor, He Xi is also a third-level mage, so he must have rich experience.
