Chapter 203 A new batch of apprentices, the possibility of receiving scholarships!
It's another quarterly performance review.
But many new people have joined.
Sitting in his seat, Ian looked behind him and saw that there were now eight more wizard apprentices.
These apprentices exuded the aura of zero-ring wizards.
Moreover, they were dressed in clothing incorporating elemental mystic arts, and with relatively youthful faces, they were clearly disciples of the Elemental Mystic Arts Academy.
Gwen, whom Ian saw yesterday, was among them.
Seeing him look over, Gwen immediately gave him a sweet smile.
Ian nodded to her.
He was somewhat surprised.
Are there really that many people in this group?
The last batch consisted of ten people, including both academy members and visiting wizards, but this time there are eight.
With the nine people present, that makes seventeen, exceeding Peter's previous estimate of a maximum of fifteen.
I wanted to ask Peter, who was standing nearby, but I saw that he also looked puzzled.
"Don't look at me, I don't know what's going on either. In previous years, the college only had three or four."
Sensing his gaze, Peter turned around and shrugged, indicating that he didn't know either.
It wasn't just him.
The other wizards were also somewhat surprised, as the number of apprentices recruited this time was indeed much larger than usual.
The group whispered among themselves until Kieran arrived, at which point they finally quieted down.
Kieran, however, acted as if nothing had happened.
The lecture began.
The content concerns some points to note when studying natural runes, as well as specific and efficient methods.
Ian listened carefully.
After all, this is his current research topic, and Kieran must have his reasons for saying this.
When others heard that it was about this, their interest immediately waned.
Because most wizards, in pursuit of greater combat power and authority, would certainly prioritize mature witchcraft and runes.
The study of natural runes is generally undertaken by wizards with scarce resources or for specific purposes.
Either the rune itself is very powerful.
But there are very few of these.
Kieran naturally noticed this scene as well, but shook his head, realizing that the wizards of this generation were indeed lacking in the spirit of inquiry.
However, it is indeed related to the current environment of the wizarding world, so we can't blame them.
Even he wasn't so optimistic about Ian, because this kind of thing was really not worth it.
The returns are low, and it takes a lot of time.
However, he still expressed his support for every wizard who was willing to explore knowledge.
Although few wizards of this kind actually grow up, those who do often go further and longer on the path of wizardry.
This time he spoke for a full three hours.
Ian ended the lecture with great interest, having gained a great deal.
Kieran explained many methods that Kieran was unaware of, which could greatly shorten his research time.
And so the story ends.
Kilan has begun the assessment as scheduled.
As he passed by El, he nodded in satisfaction: "Your talent is indeed quite good. The first crystal has already condensed to about 50 or 60 percent completion. Perhaps in a year you will be able to reach the limit of the early stage of the first ring. You can consider breaking through."
El smiled, and the senior students around him also turned around and smiled back, showing great enthusiasm.
Are they in their fifties or sixties?
Ian's eyes flickered; this speed was indeed much faster than his.
However, he has a strong foundation and needs more time, so he may not necessarily be worse than her in the future.
"Moreover, I'm only 700 points away from the Crescent Moon level, and I'm getting closer and closer to it." Ian regained his composure.
He couldn't control Al's progress.
He just needs to do his own job.
More importantly, it depends on whether Kieran can help him borrow the stone tablet, as this is crucial to his progress and scholarship.
Kieran walked past El and stood in front of Ian, then took out a spatial ring and handed it to Ian.
"Return it after one year."
"Okay, teacher."
Ian looked delighted, quickly stood up to take it, and then put it away.
Seeing this, the others immediately understood that Ian must have met Kieran's requirements.
Is the Four Symbols Resonance Method a further advancement?
Even Flynn had to reconsider Ian's value at this point; his magical talent was truly formidable.
Sofia also looked slightly surprised.
Because the Four Symbols meditation method is indeed very difficult.
For a moment, the wizards who knew about this meditation method all had strange expressions, but the three new wizards, Andre and El, did not feel much.
Seeing Ian's progress, Andre felt a faint sense of crisis.
He naturally couldn't be without thoughts of the scholarship. Although he had been friendly to Ian before, he didn't think Ian could compete with him.
But is there an opportunity now?
El glanced at her and then stopped paying attention. Compared to her, she really didn't think Ian, with his first-class talent, could cause any trouble.
The students in the back watching this scene were left wondering what they were thinking.
soon.
It was the apprentices' turn.
Kieran looked at them and said, "Although the academy has increased the number of prospective students, it doesn't mean my requirements will be lowered. You must become a full-fledged wizard within two and a half years."
Although these words were spoken to prospective apprentices, they made Ian and the others understand the reason.
So it was an order from the academy!
No wonder!
soon.
Kieran left.
Then Flynn strode up to Ian, smiled, and said, "Brother Ian, you're getting more and more of the teacher's favorite!"
"No, no!"
Ian said modestly.
He was also a little surprised, because this was the first time in more than a year that Flynn had taken the initiative to get to know him again.
"come on."
Flynn patted him on the shoulder and then left.
The other wizards smiled kindly at him as well.
Of course, these people weren't just like that towards Ian, but also towards Al, and were even more enthusiastic towards the latter.
After all, although Ian seems to have made some progress, when it comes to competing for scholarships and future potential, Al is clearly stronger.
After a few words of conversation, the group of people...
Then they dispersed.
They didn't care about the prospective apprentices; only those who could stay were worth getting to know.
After all, there are quite a few people with Silver Moon-level talent who have been eliminated by Kieran.
Leave the castle.
As Ian walked down the road, he heard a familiar voice chasing after him from afar.
Turning around, I saw Gwen giving me a sweet smile.
"Hello, Senior Ian!"
"Gwen? Is something the matter?"
Ian turned around and asked.
"Nothing much, just thank you for your guidance yesterday, which made my meeting with Professor Kiran a couple of days ago much smoother," Gwen replied.
"oh!"
Ian nodded.
Gwen really comes up to thank me for such a small thing...
"Then I won't bother you any longer, senior. If you need anything, just call me anytime."
Gwen said.
"OK."
Ian nodded, then turned and left.
They quickly returned to their own house.
He took out the spatial ring that Kieran had given him, preparing to examine its contents.
I couldn't help but feel nervous.
Because it is very important to him.
"Whether or not you can get a scholarship may depend on this."
Take a deep breath.
Ian opened the spatial ring.
