Don't disturb the sorcerer's scientific research

Chapter 44 Meeting with Problem Student Jia Xiu

In the evening, the wind from the sea finally blew away some of the heat accumulated in the city.

In a large, rugged sea view villa located in the southwest corner of Larven, Thomas enjoyed his exquisite dinner in the sunset.

He picked up the glass and took a sip of white wine. The fresh fruity aroma was the taste of victory.

He was confident of winning the final round of exams.

According to tradition, the main purpose of the final round of exams is not screening, because after the written test and the phantom world, there are only less than 600 candidates left, which is very close to the final number of admissions.

The main purpose of this round of examinations is to showcase the characteristics of all candidates and allow instructors who are not familiar with this year's freshmen to observe their level with their own eyes.

Therefore, this is the only round of entrance examinations that is open to the public.

It is open to all teachers, and audiences are welcome to watch as well.

Therefore, it is also an annual lively event worth seeing in Larven City.

The details of the exam content may change, but it is generally fixed. Candidates are divided into groups of three. If the college does not have three candidates, the college will provide constructs or golems to fill the gap and challenge the instructor.

Of course, it is unrealistic to expect freshmen who have not yet enrolled to defeat their instructors. All instructors will limit the number of spell rings that can be used, and will also disclose the spells that will be used in the exam in advance. This is considered a kind of question, giving candidates a few days to think of how to respond.

If you can last ten minutes, you will pass.

The instructors will not be too harsh, and as long as the candidates do not perform too poorly, they can basically last ten minutes.

Of course, there are a few eye-catching bags every year.

Unlike the elimination in the first two rounds, candidates who show major problems in this round will inevitably become the laughing stock of the city in the following year because of the outside audience.

As a warlock who inherited the power of the red dragon, Thomas naturally does not need to worry about embarrassing himself in public.

What he needs to consider is how to play beautifully and with style, and become the object of competition among the best instructors in the college.

Become the envy of all the young spellcasters in the city, but the target they cannot catch up with.

Everything is planned.

At this moment, the housekeeper knocked on the door.

"Master, a letter from Mr. Guderian."

"Oh, really? Send it in quickly."

Thomas spoke calmly, but he was actually quite confused. Guderian's letter proved that there was something wrong with the final ranking of the second round of exams.

He opened the letter with feigned composure.

"All batches of the second round of exams have completed today. The fastest time to reach the 30-crown mark was set by a candidate named Ram, while the highest overall score was set by Jia Xiu."

Seeing this, Thomas exerted force with his hands and crumpled the letter into a ball.

It’s gone, all gone, not a single one of my top names is left.

Mia makes a lot of money, Ram is fast, and Jashu makes a lot and fast.

Jia Xiu, it’s this Jia Xiu again.

He ranked first in the written test and first again in the second round.

Could he be the first nemesis he will face in his life?

Thomas sneered.

"Paper and pen."

He wanted to write a reply. He wanted to make Jia Xiu a laughing stock in the final round of exams...

……

Sant'Ero College, Examination Center Conference Room.

All the staff responsible for the entrance examination, including the instructors who will appear in the final round, and Dean Nico who was not originally going to appear, are sitting here, waiting for the golem to announce the team formation results.

Yes, during the examination process of San Dero, as rumored, a large number of magical creations were used. For example, constructs were really used when grading the papers, and when grouping the final round of exams, specially made golems were used.

This golem was created to resolve the differences of opinion arising from previous artificial grouping.

There should be three candidates in a group, and logically there should be one candidate with intermediate, high and low levels, and their strengths should complement each other.

However, each professor has a different understanding of this topic, and personal relationships play a significant role, making manual grouping time-consuming and often unsatisfactory. To address this issue, the college created a special grouping automaton that is completely devoid of emotional influence and relies solely on data for grouping.

After nearly an hour of work, the group golem finally gave the result.

A long list of groups was "spit out" by the golem.

The person in charge of the final round of examinations picked up the list for inspection.

"Eh?"

The person in charge exclaimed.

"How come there are three people who haven't been grouped? There are clearly two groups that aren't full."

This is the first time this has happened to the golem.

"Which three are not grouped?" asked Dean Nico.

"Mia..."

"There are also Ram and Jashu, right?"

As soon as these three names were spoken, scattered laughs broke out in the conference room.

The "reputation" of these three people has spread throughout the teaching circles of Saint-Dero and has even begun to spread to other colleges and universities.

It’s because Saint-Delo has never had such outrageous candidates since its establishment, but now not only has it appeared, but there are three at once.

"Yes Dean."

"How about letting the golem divide the three of them again?"

"Okay." The person in charge picked up the files of the three people again and stuffed them into the input port on the back of the golem.

After receiving the file, the golem started working immediately, but the working process was quite abnormal.

Magical arcs that shouldn't have appeared crackled and flickered on the top of the golem, followed by a few wisps of green smoke rising from its head, accompanied by a burnt smell.

Seeing that the situation was abnormal, the person in charge hurriedly wanted to stop the golem. This thing was difficult to make. If it burned out in his hands, the professor in charge of the production of magical creations would be anxious with him.

But before he could stop, the golem with simple intelligence chose to "save itself".

It vomited out the three files directly and sprayed them far away. Although it had no expression, it seemed as if it was almost disgusted with these three files.

Dean Nico stroked his much thinner beard.

The golem strike is completely understandable, but who can figure out these three?

The person in charge asked, "Dean, how do we deal with these three?"

Smoke also began to come out of Dean Nico's head.

The old man's central processing unit is running at full speed.

Finally, "Forget it, let's group the three of them together. Their styles are so consistent, it would be a shame to separate them. But there's still a problem."

"Dean, please say."

"Who will be in charge of these three in the final round of exams? Is there anyone who can take the initiative?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the conference room fell silent.

Candidates are afraid of making a fool of themselves under the gaze of the audience, and tutors are even more afraid.

If a candidate makes a fool of himself, he will be laughed at for a year at most, but if a tutor makes a fool of himself, he will be laughed at for a lifetime.

When it comes to simulating actual combat with candidates, it doesn't matter whether the candidates are stronger or weaker, but the real problem is that we don't know what they are thinking.

Who knows what Jia Xiu and his friends will do in the examination room? What if it is another big job? It is not easy for a tutor to accumulate a reputation. By then, everything will be over.

"Is it true that no one is taking the initiative? This is a great opportunity. Aren't you tempted by a talented young man like Jia Xiu? Take this opportunity to get to know him better. If no one takes the initiative, I will draw the lots." Dean Nico encouraged.

"Let me do it."

A voice came from the corner.

Dean Nico stood on tiptoe and looked over. "Ha, Mr. Guderian, thank you so much for your help. You will be in charge of Jia Xiu and the others' exams. I wish you good luck."
