Chapter 152: The Compet.i.tion Begins!
Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL
In addition, all kinds of mages, big and small, and even some idle mages, as well as some old monsters who had gone into seclusion, brought their own disciples.
Some of the older generation came personally because they wanted to teach their disciples better than their old friends, and also to catch up with their old friends whom they had not seen for many years.
As for the young mages, they were extremely ambitious. They hoped that they could obtain a good ranking in this magic compet.i.tion.
If they could, they would become famous in one day.
Under such circ.u.mstances, the Magic Alliance Compet.i.tion, which was the focus of everyone’s attention, had finally begun.
The preliminaries would last for five days.
Three thousand people would be selected from the partic.i.p.ating mages from all over the continent.
After that, these three thousand people would compete with the students from the 32 magic academies. A total of 3,800 people would enter the official compet.i.tion.
They would compete for the top three hundred spots.
Su Han and the others did not need to partic.i.p.ate in the preliminaries. The ones hosting the compet.i.tion were the Deacons from the Magic Alliance.
Under their auspices, the preliminaries were successfully completed. The final three thousand young mages stood out.
Among these three thousand outstanding young mages, some of them had successfully established their reputation.
Among them, a few were the most talked about.
One was from a remote town at the southern end of the Empire.
It was said that this person was the b.a.s.t.a.r.d son of a Marquis. Because he was not valued, he was sent to a remote area to become the city lord of a small city.
And after this person became the city lord, he quickly revealed his extraordinary talent.
Not only did he develop his city to be very lively and prosperous, but he also recruited many outstanding and powerful mages to be his subordinates.
His business developed very quickly, and the product called ‘soap’ was not only immediately popular, it could even be exported to other provinces.
The ‘perfume’ that he produced was even more popular with n.o.blewomen.
It was said that several rather large chambers of commerce on the continent had cooperated with him and had already spread out on the continent. Even some of the n.o.ble ladies in the Imperial Capital had begun to use it.
And they were very fond of it.
And that was not all.
This b.a.s.t.a.r.d son of a Marquis was also said to have extraordinary magic talent.
While he was vigorously developing his own city, his magic cultivation did not fall behind.
Within a short period of time, he had become a tier-4 mage.
This time, he had brought the mages beside him to partic.i.p.ate, intending to obtain a good ranking in this magic compet.i.tion.
Other than that, there was another person who was very worthy of people’s heated discussion.
This person was a good person. He was clearly a mage with very ordinary talent, but the strange thing was that his magic cultivation progressed very quickly.
People who knew him five years ago discovered that this person did not know how to cultivate at all, but after five years, not only had he become a powerful magician, but he had also become a powerful warrior.
There was actually a Giant Dragon by his side that acknowledged him as its master.
This was a Giant Dragon!
Although it was only a very ordinary fire element Giant Dragon, but it must be known that after each Giant Dragon matured, they would have the strength of a tier-6 magician.
But now, this adult dragon had actually submitted to a tier-5 mage.
Many people were secretly puzzled.
They guessed that perhaps this young mage had some amazing fortuitous encounter.
As for the other popular figure, he was more mysterious.
No one knew his background, nor did they know his ident.i.ty.
It was as if he had suddenly appeared.
He had appeared in the north of the continent three years ago, and then single-handedly killed a group of bandits that roamed the north.
That group of bandits was very powerful. It was said that the leader was a tier-5 warrior.
However, he was still killed cleanly by this person.
The strangest thing was that this person clearly did not have any magic power in his body, yet he was able to display all sorts of magical techniques.
In this compet.i.tion, he held a strange wooden sword in his hand. With a wave of his hand, he sprinkled some yellow talisman paper, and then he would summon all kinds of elemental energy.
Freeze!
Fire!
Lightning!
It could be said that there were endless waves!
His opponent was defeated by this strange method.
There was still one more.
His magic cultivation was clearly only at the level of a tier-3 mage, but he had opened a magic academy on a desolate mountain.
More importantly, there were some strong teachers in the academy.
This person was also very arrogant. He told everyone that he wanted to build his magic academy into the best magic academy on the continent.
He even said that in terms of foundation, the Saint Laurent Magic Academy and the Royal Magic Academy could not compare at all.
Many people thought that he was a fool.
…
It had to be said that this grand compet.i.tion of the Magic Alliance had attracted many strange people.
But there was no exception.
Although these strange people made people hate them to a certain extent, their strength was unquestionable.
Many people made bets in private, and people fought to place bets on the mages they valued to advance to the top 300.
During this time, Su Han stayed in the Magic Alliance.
He naturally heard the rumors outside.
But he didn’t pay too much attention to them.
From his point of view, those strange people were undoubtedly some lucky ones.
But he wasn’t in a hurry.
Since the other party had come to partic.i.p.ate in this compet.i.tion, they couldn’t escape Su Han’s grasp.
Under the noisy situation here, the preliminaries had pa.s.sed.
And the official compet.i.tion had also begun!
When the Deacons of the Magic Alliance invited him, Su Han had already made preparations and headed to the compet.i.tion venue.
As one of the leading instructors of the four top magic academies.
In addition, he was the junior brother of the Great Mage Shen Fa.
Although the Magic Alliance had only arranged for Lilia’s position before this, after learning of Su Han’s ident.i.ty, they had specially added a seat for Su Han.
Outside of the five main judges, they specially established special judge tutor!
The official compet.i.tion was located on a huge square in the Imperial Capital, which could accommodate hundreds of thousands of people.
And when the compet.i.tion was about to begin, the venue was already packed with people.
Countless mages and knights who were watching, as well as the n.o.bles in the Imperial Capital, took their seats one after another, waiting for the official start of the compet.i.tion.
Under their watchful eyes, the three thousand mages who had just risen to prominence in the empire in the past ten years would reveal their splendor.
The entire continent’s magic academies and many powerful mages were gathered here.
It was no exaggeration to say that anyone who could show off here would be able to spread their reputation throughout the entire continent in the shortest amount of time.
The monthly magic report under the jurisdiction of the Magic Union had been waiting for a long time.
Once a mage was known, they would record it and then print it into a booklet that would be spread across every guild of magic on the continent.
On the huge square, there was a huge balcony.
There were already over a hundred people set up on the balcony.
The people who could sit here were all Deacons from the Magic Union, the leaders of the various major magic industries, the great n.o.bles of the Empire, and powerful mages from all over the continent.
