After I won a large amount of gold coins for the Royal Martial Arts Academy, Teacher Weier finally realized the huge economic value of me, who had failed the Holy Knight examination. He began to have ideas about me.
Very soon, I received an invitation from the Royal Magic Academy. They wanted me to participate in the Magician's Level Test, and I gladly agreed to their request.
Becoming a Saint Mage Teacher has always been my dream. If I can pass the test to increase my magic level, then it would definitely be beneficial to me.
In my mind, the so-called magic level test was similar to the martial arts test. Send a few mages to fight with me, and if I win, I will be able to level up.
I believe that I would still have some misgivings about those knights with powerful martial arts techniques, but with my complete immunity to magic, dealing with mages was simply my forte. Even if old man Weier personally came out, he would only be beaten up.
This is also the reason why I agreed to participate in the test so readily.
I didn't expect that Teacher Weier, who was extremely familiar with me, was really too cunning. The so-called magic level test was completely different from what I had imagined.
When I questioned the test method, he actually said without batting an eyelid,
"What? What kind of people do you think we mages are? Are we like those barbaric and brainless knights?？”
"We're highly intelligent humans, so of course we have to use a more civilized way of testing. I don't think you're the kind of person who's simple-minded and brawny, right? If you are like that, I will definitely arrange a one-on-one duel for you.”
What else can I say?
I couldn't admit that I was simple-minded, so I braced myself and agreed to participate in this civilization test. After seeing the test project, I finally knew that this was a conspiracy against me.
On the test list, it was clearly written: The contents of the Mage Level Test were 1. Basic Elemental Summoning Ability, 2. Elementary Magic Usage, 3. Magic Endurance Test (10 consecutive shots of magic).
The content of the Advanced Mage test was 1. Summon magic elements quickly, 2. Use of intermediate magic, 3. Test of magic endurance (20 consecutive shots of magic). The content of the archmage test was…
In short, with every level up, the magic elements gathered and the level of magic used would also increase. These were not a problem for me. What gave me the biggest headache was the magic endurance test. I was famous for using magic three times a day. In this test, even the lowest level mage had to use magic ten times consecutively. Wasn't this going against me?
I scratched my head and helplessly said to Teacher Weier in an extremely humble tone,
"Esteemed Great Magister, my most respected teacher, I was wondering if this magic endurance test could be replaced with something else? For example, I can increase my mastery of elemental gathering and magic by a little. I can use forbidden spells during the mage examination. Anyway, the power of a hundred small fireballs can't compare to the power of one Flaming Wrath, right?”
Teacher Weier stroked his beard and smiled at me. He said unhurriedly,"Hmm, not bad. It sounds like your suggestion is very reasonable. This should be able to replace it…”
Just as I was filled with joy, his next words extinguished all my hopes.
"But, even if your words are very reasonable, our Mage Association is a place that respects the rules. Although I am your teacher, you still have to follow the rules.”
"If the Magicians who come to test their levels in the future use your method, why do we still have to formulate all kinds of strict testing methods?”
I hated that old man Weier to the point of gnashing my teeth, but I couldn't do anything to him. I couldn't possibly beat up my own teacher in public, right? Although I really, really wanted to do so.
"You're amazing. I'm impressed by you today. I don't believe that you can stump me like this. I have to think of a way!”
Unwilling to accept defeat, I ordered all my brain cells to mobilize. An idea that I had once had appeared in my mind again.
After thinking hard, I finally thought of a countermeasure. It was still my ultimate move,"Cheating."
After I quickly passed the first two tests of the Mage level, 20 fireballs flew out of my hands one after another to the astonishment of old man Weier. They accurately hit the targets made of magic crystals in the distance and completely destroyed them. Seeing those expensive targets disappear into thin air, I couldn't help but feel a sense of revenge.
It was unknown whether it was because of the great power of magic (those magic crystals had the effect of absorbing magic power, and under normal circumstances, such extremely pure magic crystals could absorb magic power.)
A target made of magic crystals will not be destroyed by magic), or was he surprised that I could use magic so many times in a row? Teacher Will and the elders of the Guild of Magic were dumbfounded.
I didn't care about that. While they were still in a daze, I started the Advanced Magician's Level Test. I also quickly passed the first two tests. Then, I shot out 40 to 50 fireballs in succession, causing the small mountain in the distance to be riddled with holes. Just as I was feeling smug, I accidentally lost control and two to three fireballs rushed out at the same time.
Ah! Oh no!
" Stop! This isn't a fireball!" Old Man Will, who was most familiar with me, had actually recovered from his trance and discovered the flaw in my magic! Looking at the other members of the Guild of Magic who were puzzled, he immediately played the role of a commentator.
"Everyone, please take a look. Just now, everyone should have noticed that Constellation's spell actually had two fireballs released at the same time. This is absolutely impossible for a single target fireball spell! I think it's a 'Meteor Shower' move. Only it can cause such a reaction.”
"What? There's no shooting star. Are these fireballs also called rain of fire?”I tried to quibble.
Will sneered and said darkly,"Hehe, you underestimate your master too much! Don't forget, I'm a fire element Great Mage. I've used this Meteor Shower countless times. Don't think that you can fool me by controlling those fireballs to create the illusion of them shooting out one by one. The best proof was that those elementary fireballs could cause such power?!”
Will grasped my weakness of not being able to reduce the power of magic, leaving me speechless.
As expected, the old men of the Guild of Magic obviously agreed with Will's point of view. They believed that those powerful fireballs were the result of the high-level spell, Meteor Shower. Although Meteor Shower was not as powerful, it was more convincing than the lowest level of small fireballs.
In the end, I was deemed to have completely failed the magic endurance test. I was disqualified from being a mage and could only be recognized as a magic apprentice.
Hearing such a decision that was simply an insult to my ability, I almost went berserk. I wanted to have a one-on-one duel with them.
When I shouted at Will," If you have the ability, then take off the 'Heart's Nostalgia' in my hand and test it again. With this damn thing, of course I can't perform to my best!”
The other mages were so shocked that their mouths almost fell out.
"What?! Impossible. With the suppression of the divine artifact, Heart's Nostalgia, it was impossible to use any magic. That was a seal created by the gods to suppress powerful magic power!”
They all looked at Teacher Weier in unison. When they saw him lower his head in silent agreement, they clearly understood the truth of my words.
After a long discussion, these guys changed their minds and claimed that because I had extremely powerful magic power and powerful magic control, they would make an exception and allow me to obtain the title of "Advanced Mage".
Sigh! I didn't expect that a super magic genius like me who dared to challenge a Great Mage would spend a lot of effort to get such a title of "Advanced Mage". This is my shame!
