Lord Wizard: Starting your studies with infinite magic crystals!

Hearing Felia's words, Andrew suddenly realized what she meant.

"I see!"

"Young Master, I understand!"

Wayne couldn't help but smile upon hearing this. If he still didn't understand, then he was truly hopeless.

General Delhi covered his face and quietly moved a few steps to the side, as if to say, "I don't know him."

.........

On the other side, on the banquet stage of the Colosseum Hotel, Aurora was momentarily stunned as she looked at the thousands of students staring at her below.

It wasn't that she was nervous, but rather that if it weren't for the Holy Domain's favor in having her follow the young master, she probably wouldn't even be able to see these people now, let alone stand on the platform and look down at these people waiting for her to speak.

It was standing here that Aurora truly understood the sentiment expressed by her young master: "All the talents in the world are now within our grasp."

Back to topic.

Aurora looked at the students below and said, "Young Master Wayne has issued a message at the last minute, and I'm here to inform you now."

"Today's recruitment will adopt a battle system based on different levels, and the top ten in each level will be trained as dragon knights."

The words fell.

The crowd below immediately became excited, their breathing quickened, and everyone began to rub their hands together in anticipation.

And Aurora's voice rang out again.

"Young Master said that this assessment will not consider background or talent; he only wants the most loyal swordsman."

"A dragon contract isn't something everyone can have. I hope everyone is prepared. I don't know if the young master will hold another recruitment like today, and I don't know about the training of dragon knights, so don't hold back."

"The opportunity is here for you all, so please make the most of it."

After saying that, Aurora turned around, stepped off the stage, and left the banquet hall.

After Aurora left.

The banquet hall became incredibly lively, as if it had been injected with adrenaline.

"Haha, I'll definitely be in the top ten."

"Tch, as if everyone's a genius."

……

The sounds rose and fell, when suddenly a voice came from the doorway: "You idiots, I'm going first. Luckily, I've loved weapons since I was a child and had one custom-made a long time ago."

"Haha, are you dumbfounded now?"

After saying this, the young man left quickly, and a strong chorus of protest erupted from the crowd. At the same time, the crowd began to push their way out, since most of them were wearing formal attire.

.........

An hour later.

The news of Wayne recruiting dragon knights spread like wildfire across the forums of the three academies.

The response was enthusiastic.

This also revealed a bunch of geniuses, including many senior students from the eighth and ninth grades. These geniuses hadn't originally planned to participate because they were all somewhat confident that they could contract a dragon.

But now it's out.

After all, opportunities to contract a dragon so easily are rare, and Andrew flaunts a young dragon around the Knight Academy every day.

It would be a lie to say I'm not envious.

The same was true at the Elemental Wizard Academy; some senior genius students were also blasted out. The blessing of a giant dragon was no less powerful for them than the blessing of top-tier resources.

that's it.

At least eight out of ten students from both academies were drawn by the news and all wanted to compete for a spot in the top ten.

…………

It was 2 PM.

The enormous arena was filled with tens of thousands of students, each with a face beaming with excitement and hope.

Suddenly, the arena fell silent.

Only the sound of footsteps could be heard.

Wayne led his group out from the inner walkway of the Colosseum and headed towards the central edge of the arena.

That's the stage.

Tens of thousands of people stood at attention, even slowing their breathing. Although their minds were filled with countless thoughts, no one dared to break the silence.

Listen quietly to the footsteps, your eyes following Wayne's movements.

After a while.

On the stage, Wayne stood there, took a step forward, looked around, and then spoke.

Good afternoon, everyone.

"First of all, thank you all for coming. I'm sure you're not in the mood for a long talk right now, so let's get down to business."

The words fell.

Laughter filled the arena.

At that moment, Wayne's voice rang out again.

"Now let me explain the rules of the upcoming battle. This battle will be a free-for-all."

"Taking a Level One Black Iron Knight as an example, anyone who reaches this level can fight in the arena."

"There are no rules in this battle. Only the last ten survivors will become my dragon knights, and so on. Do any of you still have questions?"

The words fell.

A voice suddenly rang out: "Junior Brother Wayne, what about us elemental wizards?"

Wayne looked in the direction of the voice and was surprised to see it was Tland. However, his surprise lasted only a moment.

"Wizards and knights fight separately, with the top ten from each level being selected."

"Senior, is there any other question?"

Tland shook his head and then sat down.

Seeing this, Wayne nodded in satisfaction, but instead of announcing the start, he remained silent or waited for a full five minutes. When no one asked the so-called question, Wayne was even more satisfied.

He snapped his fingers.

"Linus, it's your turn to step in."

The words fell.

A figure appeared out of thin air in the sky above the center of the arena, hovering there. At the same time, he lightly touched the void, and an array covering the entire arena was formed.

"Alright, go ahead and do your thing. I'm here, there won't be any problems."

Wayne nodded and looked at everyone.

"Gentlemen, those who are ranked as first-class Black Iron Knights may enter the inner arena to prepare."

The words fell.

One by one, figures rose from their seats and flew into the arena. Each person who entered the arena was enveloped by a beam of light from a magical array.

After all seven thousand people had landed in their respective positions, Wayne's voice rang out.

"Remember, everyone, what I want are wolves and sharp swords. Fight with the resolve to die, and the one who stands last will win the dragon."

"Let's begin."

As soon as the sound faded, the battle began, with figures clashing and shouts of battle echoing throughout.

Colorful magical halos danced in the air, creating a spectacular scene.

On the hosting stage.

Philia couldn't bear to look, so she hid behind her mentor, Philna, peeking out with a mixture of wanting to see and being reluctant to look into the arena.

"Teacher, it's so bloody."

Upon hearing this, Philna looked at the scene of blood splattering everywhere, but her eyes showed no emotion. How could the story of becoming a level seven True Spirit Wizard be without blood and fire?

This time, Philna didn't offer any protection. Instead, she pulled Philia in front of her and forced her to look at her.

"I've protected you too well."

"Watch, even if you can't bear it, you have to watch. Real pioneering will only be more cruel than this. In real pioneering, there won't be a seventh-level lord wizard to save you at any time. You will have to face this kind of thing sooner or later. As long as you still want to pursue the truth, this is an unchangeable fate."

Aurora overheard these words. Although she didn't lose her composure like Philia, she was still a girl and naturally felt a little sorry for her.

However, after hearing these words, Aurora suppressed her emotions, perhaps because she was a knight, or perhaps because she knew that she would become a pioneer of the young master's territory in the future.

Therefore, it was overcome quickly.

Wayne, on the other hand, saw that the three Derry brothers showed no change or fear whatsoever; instead, they were incredibly excited, as if they wanted to go down and fight.

This scene left a deep impression on Wayne.
