Primary Grade exam
Although the Magicians Guild was in Anvilmar City, because there were too many people who had registered, the location of the exam was arranged outside the city.
Xu Yi smoothly entered the site of with his registration badge and ran into quite a few people who took the initiative to talk to him.
The day of the registration, in order to recruit more workers for the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, Xu Yi had taken the chance to talk to every magician he saw.
Although there were few people who agreed, Xu Yi’s conversation skills were quite good and he had left a good impression on these people. So when these people saw him, naturally they came to greet him.
“Hey, Xu Yi, I never thought that you had this many personal connections.” Seeing Xu Yi come over, Erwin punched his shoulder as he spoke with a smile.
Xu Yi gave a shrug, “There’s no other choice, I’m just too handsome.”
Erwin laughed, “So cocky. An old bachelor like you and you’re still saying your face is handsome? If Roy and the others heard this, they would laugh themselves to death.”
Xu Yi helplessly rolled his eyes.
Back in the Senkaiser School, because Xu Yi was already twenty four, being much older than most of his classmates and adding in the fact that he didn’t have time to interact with girls since he was still integrating into this world, he was called an old bachelor by them.
Xu Yi was helpless in refuting, so he could just let them be.
“Where’s Rooney and Bob?” Xu Yi looked around before asking.
“They aren’t participating in the Preliminary Grade exam like us, of course they’re not here.” Erwin said with a smile.
“Oh…..” Xu Yi then remembered, the Magicians Guild exams were separated by grades. The first day was the Primary Grade test and there weren’t any limits. The second day was a test for Primary Grade Magicians and if they passed, they would become Second Grade Magicians.
The third day was a test for Second Grade Magicians. And so it went like this, with the last day being the exam for Fourth Grade Magicians which is the Fifth Grade exam.
“Alright, let’s hurry up and take care of this Primary Grade exam. Don’t you feel it’s embarrassing having the two of us stand here like this?” Erwin said.
“Embarrassing?” Xu Yi was surprised before he reacted.
If one was a magician with outstanding talent, they would have been taught magic since they were young. Normally one would take the Primary Grade exam when they were ten to become an official magician.
For someone like Erwin who was nineteen and still hadn’t passed the Primary Grade exam, it meant that he didn’t have an outstanding talent.
And as for Xu Yi who was already twenty seven and hadn’t passed the Primary Grade exam, his talent must be even lower. In his entire life, it was impossible for him to become a Great Magician.
Standing among a group of kids who were ten and participating in this exam, no wonder Erwin felt this was embarrassing.
But it was a good thing it wasn’t just embarrassing for them. Other than them, there were also quite a few magicians in their twenties with average talent. There was even a white haired old man who seemed to be over sixty years old.
Seeing this old man covered in a black magic robe, Xu Yi couldn’t help feeling respect for him.
To still persist in participating in the Primary Grade exam at his age, this grandfather must really love magic.
Very soon, the Magicians Guild staff member in charge announced that the exam would be starting.
Because this was a Primary Grade exam, other than checking a magician’s magic power, they also needed to test a magician’s fundamental understanding and interpretation of magic. So other than the combat exam, there was a written exam that came first.
Xu Yi took the exam scroll and couldn’t help smiling.
He had already studied the contents back in the Senkaiser School, but the scope of the questions was a bit deeper.
Erwin could graduate from the Senkaiser School, so there was definitely no problem passing this written test.
The reason why he didn’t pass the Primary Grade exam before was obviously because of the combat test.
No wonder he chose to become an adventurer after graduation. This was because a dangerous job like being an adventurer could let him increase his combat experience, allowing him to be much more relaxed in the combat test.
No wonder he was filled with confidence this time. It had to be known that this fellow had one of the lowest magical talents among all their roommates.
The problems on the scroll weren’t any problems for Erwin, so naturally Xu Yi who was considered a genius in the Senkaiser School would find it to be a cinch.
After less than half an hour, Xu Yi had completely answered all the questions on the test paper.
With his discretion as an engineer, Xu Yi checked over his answers twice. After confirming that there were no problems, he handed in the test paper.
After leaving the test area, he found that there was already a person waiting there.
Seeing Xu Yi come out, a taunting smile appeared on that person’s face.
“You actually took this long for a Primary Grade written test, do you still dare say that you don’t have a special relation to Great Magician Camilla?”
Xu Yi knit his brows to look at this youth who seemed to be underaged still and revealed a thoughtful look. After thinking for a while, he finally clapped his hands and pointed at him while shouting, “I finally remember! You’re that person I met when I was registering called what…...Anke Galen?”
“Eren!” Anke Eren thought that no one would forget him once they saw him, but he never thought that Xu Yi would only remember him after thinking for a while and even got his name wrong. He instantly flew into a rage, “Xu Yi, I’m telling you, you are dead today!”
Xu Yi shook his head, thinking that this kid must definitely be pampered by his family.
He was disinclined to arguing with a kid and directly found a place to sit, patiently waiting for the next test.
But this manner enraged Anke even more. He came in front of Xu Yi and pointed at Xu Yi’s nose as he said in a loud voice, “Xu Yi, do you hear me? You are dead today!”
