I Can Bind the Legendary Archmage to Train for Me! - Chapter 36

At this moment, a freshman could not help but ask.

He had just come to report yesterday. The moment he arrived, he heard someone say that a new student had beaten up several senior students.

And it was a lightning mage.

When Karl introduced himself, this student had yet to connect the dots.

But now, he saw how talented Karl was.

Moreover, when Karl came, the recruitment teacher, Gargado, asked Karl if he had enjoyed the fight yesterday.

With everything added up,

the identity of the freshman who had beaten up the senior students was revealed.

Hearing what he said, everyone looked at Karl again.

“That’s not right. What do you mean Karl beat up the senior students? Those senior students took advantage of their seniority and snatched Karl’s cultivation room by force. They were taught a lesson by Karl.”

Elena corrected him.

After all, Karl had beaten up a senior student. This sentence made it sound as if Karl was the one who caused trouble first.

However, they now knew that Karl did this because the seniors had forced Karl out of the cultivation room.

This meant that Karl was not the one who initiated the fight.

“It’s really him!”

“Hiss, he’s too strong. I heard that one of the seniors is already a four-star mage. He was beaten up by Karl!”

“God, we’re too different from Karl.”

“Comparisons are odious. Compared to Karl, I seem a little useless.”

“Like everyone else.”

Everyone looked at Karl and discussed among themselves.

They were surprised and shocked.

Elena, on the other hand, couldn’t help but smile at the shocked crowd. Her eyes narrowed into crescent moons.

Douglas looked at Karl and then at Diana, who was standing beside him. There was a strange look in his eyes.

He was thinking about something.

Next, the remaining students introduced themselves one after another.

But there was no one as powerful as Karl.

“Well, now that everyone has finished their introduction, we’re getting to know each other. Now let’s get down to business.”

After all the freshmen were introduced.

Gargado looked around and said slowly.

Hearing her words, everyone immediately stopped talking.

Gargado continued, “I think the students already know that all the academies in the Sacred Shield Empire will hold a Freshmen Competition after school starts.”

“There are three purposes for the Freshmen Competition. The first is to train the freshmen, which is also the main purpose.”

“Secondly, students will be ranked based on the final result of the competition. The higher the ranking, the more resources the Sacred Shield Empire will give us next year.”

“Thirdly, we can use this opportunity to select some elites for focused training.”

“Of course, it’s unconditional.”

After Gargado finished speaking, everyone’s eyes lit up.

Unconditional training meant that the academy would use all of its manpower and resources.

If that was the case, they would become a great mage in less than ten years!

“Teacher Gargado, I don’t think there was focused training in the past?”

A student asked.

He knew the Magic Academy quite well.

Not just Holy Vestige Magic Academy, there was no focused training even at the other three Magic Academies.

“You’re right. This matter was also decided by the higher-ups this year.”

Gargado said calmly, “As for the reason, you are still weak at this stage. You are not qualified to understand.”

“According to the rules of today’s competition, Four Major Magic Academies will select six people each. The other academies will select two people each.”

“Do you know what this means?”

After Gargado’s voice fell.

Everyone’s hearts tightened.

This meant that from this moment onwards, the competition had already begun.

After all, everyone was talented in magic.

They were all geniuses among geniuses.

Who wouldn’t want to improve further and become the focus of the academy’s training?

Who didn’t want to become a respected expert?

However, there were only six spots.

And there were a total of 20 of them!

“There are more than 500 Magic Academies in the Sacred Shield Empire, which means there will be 905 people added up. Even if one of you is selected, the opponent might not be someone from the other three major Magic Academies.”

“There’s also the possibility that they’re from other academies or major magic influences.”

“And according to the news we received this year, the situation is not optimistic. There are 30 people in the Sacred Shield Empire who have elite magical talent.”

“As for Holy Church Magic Academy and Holy Glory Magic Academy, there are 18 people each.”

“In addition, there are nine people with magical talent scattered in other schools.”

Gargado explained these things to the students, and everyone listened carefully.

After all, they needed to know how many people possessed similar talent as themselves.

“Hence, from now on, Teacher Gwen and I will be in charge of your special training. At the same time, this is also a kind of selection. Do you understand?”

Gargado said slowly.

Teacher Gwen was the teacher beside her.

Gargado’s words ignited the fighting spirit in everyone.

After all, even though there were 20 special admissions students at the Holy Vestige Magic Academy, other than Karl and Douglas, especially Karl, whose magical talent was exceptional, everyone else’s magical talent were about the same.

No one was weaker than anyone else, and no one was stronger than anyone else.

Especially Diana, her eyes were burning with a fighting spirit.

Then, she glanced at Elena.

Her intention was clear.

She wanted her younger sister to advance together with her and receive academy’s focused training.

Initially, Elena did not care much about cultivation. When she heard that the competition was so intense, she was already ready to back off.

After meeting her sister’s eyes, she subconsciously wanted to avoid it.

She hid behind Karl and pretended not to see Diana’s eyes.

“Teacher Gargado, what kind of special training is it exactly?”

Karl asked.

Even though he didn’t really need these things since he could level up by himself by sharing others’ cultivation gains, he still wanted to find out

Gargado looked at Karl and said with a smile, “Karl has hit the nail on the head. Teacher Gwen and I have already formulated the special training plan. The dean has approved it.”

“Teacher Gwen, why don’t you tell the students about this?”

Teacher Gwen nodded and said to the students, “The Freshman Competition will begin on August 15th, and the academy’s internal selection will begin on July 30th, so everyone still has two months.”

“Special training is divided into two parts. Basic training and actual combat training. Among them, basic training lasts for eight days and actual combat training lasts for two months.”

“And in actual combat, there are two further parts. The Devil’s Den’s actual combat is the main part, so the schedule is quite tight.”
