Chapter 102: The Academy’s Enrollment Season!
“Everyone is a true prodigy. They believe that they are true geniuses. In order to prevent them from indulging in their own talents, and to allow them to go further, the academy has to give them support while also giving them a certain blow and tempering!”
“And your existence will undoubtedly make them deeply realize… What a true genius is!”
“More importantly…”
At this point, Shen Fa sighed and said, “Nowadays, many mages pursue the power of magic, and even get deeply involved in it. On the contrary, they don’t pay much attention to magic knowledge. This is very wrong!”
“The reason why magic is magic, and the reason why it can display great power, in addition to the magic itself and ultraviolet light, lies in the magic itself… Knowledge!”
“Knowledge is the source of magic’s power!”
“During the Great Cataclysm of the ancient times, if the ancestors did not study hard, even if they could master magic, they would not have been able to overthrow the old magic and introduce new magic, leading magic to its current height!”
“But unfortunately, people nowadays only know to pursue the power of magic and learn from the predecessors, but they do not know how to be flexible and create their own!”
“Now, our magic has not improved for a long time… This is not a good sign!”
“Everything in the world always follows the rule that once you reach the peak of prosperity, you will weaken. If magic is not learned and evolved, I think there will be a day when more advanced knowledge will replace it.”
“I don’t know whether that is good or bad for humans, but as an old man who has been immersed in magic for countless years, I really don’t want to see the day when magic is silent!”
“As for you, you already have the possibility to lead the direction of magic, and you’ve worked hard to learn, so you have a profound knowledge of magic.”
“So, I hope that when you become a teacher in the academy, you’ll also let those proud children of heaven in the advanced cla.s.s know that now isn’t the time to be proud!”
Hearing Shen Fa, Su Han nodded.
Shen Fa’s reason could be said to be very sufficient.
It made Su Han unable to find the slightest excuse to refuse.
Su Han thought for a moment and found that he could only agree.
But just before he agreed, he suddenly thought of something, so he smiled and asked, “My dear senior brother, respected grand mage, I can understand that you want me to become a teacher of the Saint Laurent Magic Academy… But I think that among the reasons you gave, there’s still one missing!”
When Shen Fa heard these words, the smile on his face suddenly froze.
But then, his expression returned to normal, he said seriously, “Although I am very unwilling to admit it, as your senior brother, lying is not right. Therefore, since you asked, the reason why I want you to become a teacher is mainly because the current students are not willing to learn knowledge.”
“I hope that because of your appearance and temperament, I can attract more students to come and learn.”
Hearing this, Su Han was stunned for a moment.
“…”
“Senior Brother… Why didn’t you look for your disciple? She is the Princess, and no one can compare to her in terms of temperament.”
“She also agreed,” Shen Fa said with a chuckle.
Su Han: “…”
…
In the castle.
“Lilia, how is it? Have you thought about it?” Shen Fa asked with a smile.
“Master, has Martial Uncle Su Han agreed?” Lilia asked.
“That’s right. Su Han has agreed to be a teacher. What about you?”
Shen Fa nodded.
Hearing this, Lilia lowered her head and began to think.
Perhaps this was a good opportunity to get close to him.
‘Let’s see what secrets this man has.’
Thinking of this, Lilia finally stopped hesitating.
“Master, I’m willing to be a teacher.”
Lilia nodded her head and agreed.
“That’s great.”
Shen Fa excitedly clapped his hands and stood up.
It saved the academy two fees to hire a teacher. That was great!
…
As the academy with the longest history on the continent, Saint Laurent Magic Academy only recruited a thousand students each year. The number of students in the academy numbered in the tens of thousands.
In addition, there were at least five hundred people with teachers, tutors, and a.s.sistants.
No one knew exactly how many specialized mages there were. After all, many old fellows had come to the academy a long time ago.
Some people might go into seclusion for a long time in order to study something.
In addition, they were all old, and no one knew if they were still alive after seclusion, so no one could say for sure.
…
The New Year had just pa.s.sed, and it was the beginning of the New Year’s recruitment season.
The Saint Laurent Magic Academy would recruit students every year, but the time for recruitment was not fixed. Some would be in autumn, and some would be in spring. Each recruitment would last for half a year.
Usually, after the autumn recruitment, the students would be recruited in spring the next year. This was to allow the people who did not catch up last autumn to smoothly take the exam in spring.
After all, this continent was too big. Many young mages from remote areas, after receiving the news of the enrollment, wouldn’t be able to arrive in a month’s time even if they rushed day and night.
The spring of the next year was prepared for them.
Every year, the Saint Laurent Magic Academy would become a hot spot on the continent.
And the enrollment in the spring of the past few years naturally suppressed other news.
On the overpa.s.s of the academy, countless students and parents who accompanied the students had gathered.
Among them, there were many n.o.bles. Of course, in the spring, most of them were commoners.
After all, if they were great n.o.bles, they would have already received the news in advance and would have rushed over in the autumn.
The Saint Laurent Combat Magic Academy was also recruiting in the autumn.
After all, only n.o.ble families had the conditions to nurture magic seeds, and it was too rare for commoners to produce mages.
In addition to the problem of birth, many of them had different qualifications.
But the reason why Saint Laurent left a path for the commoners was to make sure that the real geniuses would not fall into the dust.
And the spring recruitment of a few years ago, the academy originally didn’t care much about it.
But who knew that they actually recruited geniuses with extremely good magic talent?
And all of them were born commoners!
This result made the academy extremely surprised.
Of course, there was more information.
After all, being able to recruit talented magic seeds was something worth being happy about.
With the pa.s.sage of time, the spring recruitment finally came to an end.
The spring recruitment usually had around three hundred people.
The students who successfully entered the academy were elated, while those who failed to enter the academy returned with regret.
What was worth mentioning was that there were also a few students who had immediately become famous people the moment they entered the academy.
However, Su Han did not pay much attention to these.
With the end of the spring enrollment, as the new tutor of the academy, he was about to begin teaching.
As a tutor, this was Su Han’s first time. Although he was not nervous, he still had to do his job well.
