Volume 2 Chapter 118 - Magic patent protection fee (1/2)
After a while, everyone slowly recovered from the intense light.
After they clearly saw the scene of the exam site, everyone couldn’t help taking a breath of cold air.
In the space surrounded by the magic barrier, the entire ground had been turned black and there were several large and small holes created from lightning strikes. Looking at it from a distance, it could be described as devastated.
Just based on the damage to the ground, it could be seen how terrifyingly strong the Lightning Spell that Xu Yi had released was.
Everyone stared at Xu Yi who acted like nothing had happened with dumbfounded looks and no one could say a word.
“Ah!” At this time, the Magicians Guild staff in charge of the magic barrier suddenly called out in shock and everyone looked over at him.
President Eren looked at the staff member with knitted brows and asked in a blaming tone, “What is it? Making such a big deal?”
The staff member swallowed a mouthful of saliva before pointing at the magic barrier he was responsible with. He said with a look of disbelief, “Pre….President, the magic barrier…..it seems to be a bit damaged.”
“Ah?”
Everyone was stunned again.
The use of the barrier was to ensure that the magician undertaking the exam wouldn’t hurt the others outside when using their spell.
Because the ones participating today were Sixth to Ninth Grade Magicians, considering the might of the spells they used, president Eren had personally put down this barrier which was enough to block the might of a Ninth Grade Magician.
But now that Xu Yi had cast his Lightning Spell, this magic barrier was actually damaged!
Could it be…...The Lightning Spell that Xu Yi used had might that surpassed a Ninth Grade Magician?
President Eren stood up to inspect the barrier and he couldn’t help letting out a sigh of relief. He explained to everyone with a smile, “It’s nothing really. The Lightning Spell that Xu Yi used earlier was a bit special, so it countered out the magic barrier. It wasn’t damaged because the might of the spell was too powerful.”
Hearing this explanation, everyone let out a sigh of relief.
That’s good, that’s good, it wasn’t because Xu Yi’s spell was too strong.
If it really was because of this, that meant that he as a Seventh Grade Magician was stronger than a Ninth Grade Magician!
This kind of shocking thing was not something that everyone was willing to believe in.
Seeing that president Eren had finished inspecting the barrier, Xu Yi asked with a smile, “Then sir president, did I pass this high grade magic demonstration?”
President Eren looked at Xu Yi and couldn’t help smiling, “You used such an exaggerated spell, so if I don’t let you pass, do you think that the others would agree?”
Everyone couldn’t help giving a nod.
If Xu Yi can’t pass the high grade magic test like this, then based on what could those magicians that passed before pass?
Xu Yi laughed, “I felt that my control of the spell wasn’t too good, so I wasn’t certain if I would pass or not.”
“Alright, the control of the spell is another matter, but based on the might of the spell alone, you can pass.” President Eren looked at the other four Great Magicians, “After seeing Xu Yi’s high grade magic performance, I agree with him passing. What do you all think?”
Great Magician Camilla and Great Magician Eisenkel of course immediately agreed. The other two Great Magicians looked at each other before nodding in agreement.
So the high grade magic test that Great Magician Camilla was the most worried about was something that Xu Yi easily passed.
Only Great Magician Camilla looked at Xu Yi with a very strange expression that was kind of angry, while also finding it a bit funny.
There was another difference with the high grade magician and low grade magician exams, it was that since there were few high grade magicians, there wasn’t a need to only pick a certain amount of people to pass. As long as you were strong enough, it didn’t matter how many people could pass.
So although there was also the same actual combat test in the high grade magician exam, it wasn’t as strict as with the low grade magician exam.
When it came to the actual combat test, although Great Magician Camilla couldn’t come forth because he was Xu Yi’s teacher, Great Magician Eisenkell came forward to test Xu Yi.
The others naturally wouldn’t reject this. Great Magician Eisenkel pretended to inspect him and Xu Yi was already at the level of a Seventh Grade Magician whether it was his magic power or his spells, so he easily passed this.
After the exam was over, other than Xu Yi becoming a Seventh Grade Magician recognized by the Magicians Guild, there were forty six other magicians who had passed, which was over half of the participants.
There were only three people of the twelve from the Frestech Chamber of Commerce who passed. They were all Fifth Grade Magicians who became Sixth Grade Magicians.
Comparing it, almost no one could reach the average level.
But Xu Yi wasn’t disappointed with this result, rather he was pleasantly surprised.
High grade magicians had a good understanding of their own strength. Those researchers had said to Xu Yi that they didn’t feel like they were strong enough to pass, so Xu Yi didn’t think that they would pass the exam.
But now there were three researchers that had passed, so it really was a bit unexpected.
Then again, Xu Yi had achieved the advertisement effects he wanted. As for the other things that came, he didn’t care.
After the exam was over, the other magicians had all left the exam site and only Xu Yi was left here.
