Chapter 120: The Abnormal Test (1)

  "Isn't anyone from the Department of Techniques coming?" Shen Yanxiao looked around, but didn't find any students with a techniques badge in the crowd.

  Donnatch's face was a bit strange, and he said in a low voice: "The Saint Roland Academy's Department of Magic has not recruited students for many years. It's not just here, but the entire Bright Continent can hardly find a few magicians. I'm afraid that the magician will be extinct soon."

  "Extinction." Shen Yanxiao slightly furrowed her brow, in a month of understanding the practitioners, she truly felt that this was a profession with great potential, but why had it fallen to such a miserable state.

  Tang Na looked around cautiously, making sure no one was paying attention, before speaking in a hushed tone: "You may not know that 100 years ago, mages weren't as miserable as they are now. Back then, mages were very popular, but among the three strongest mages on the Radiant Continent at the time, two of them began using curses to study human bodies. They used some forbidden and brutal curses on living people for experiments, killing a large number of powerful warriors on the Radiant Continent. When the truth came out, the gods' domain sent troops to wipe them out. Since then, mages have become synonymous with evil in many people's eyes."

  "Taboo?" Is this something in the skill of a technician?

  "Yeah, using curses to modify the human body, I heard they once tried to merge magical beasts with humans... Ugh, just thinking about it is disgusting. Let's not talk about this anymore, anyway, mages are almost extinct now." Donnatchi flicked his lip, not wanting Shen Yanshao to hear too much frightening content.

  He was unwilling to say more, and Shen Yan Xiao naturally wouldn't ask further. She finally understood why such a powerful profession would be despised by the Radiant Continent.

  "Ah! The principal has arrived!" A shout of surprise rose from among the students.

  At the frontmost high platform, Ou Yang Heng Yu in a long robe walked slowly under the gaze of thousands, his aged face showing no signs of fatigue, his majestic presence like that of a celestial deity, an aura so powerful it could be felt even by students standing at the farthest distance.

  The entire square instantly changed from being noisy to dead silent, with everyone's eyes fixed on Ouyang Huan Yu.

  Tang Zhi was somewhat excited, his eyes gleaming with a green light. If he wasn't staring at an old man but a beautiful woman instead, Shen Yanxiao suspected that he might just pounce on her directly.

  "Can you be more calm?" Shen Yanshao furrowed his brow, Tang Nachi's tone was a bit too heavy.

  Tang Naoshi slapped Shen Yanxiao on the back of the head and said, "You little brat, do you know who this old man is? This is our Saint Roland Academy's principal! He is also the strongest magician in the Dragon Xuan Empire, and the only one to reach the level of Grandmaster, a three-star Grandmaster!"

  Great Demon King?

  Shen Yan Xiao, even if he had no common sense, had been in this world for a long time and was not unfamiliar with this term. Every profession has its own level of division, from the sixth stage of magic and Dou Qi onwards, they would start from zero, and every five layers of cultivation would advance one level. In the profession of magician, starting from the initial magic apprentice, followed by primary magician, intermediate magician, advanced magician, and great magician, and above the great magician was the first turning point of the profession, that is, the magic guide, and Ou Yang Huan Yu's great magic guide was even more advanced than the magic guide.
