Lord of Arcane

Chapter 785 The First Plenary Meeting of the Academy

Although Xia Duo didn't say clearly that he would definitely be able to become an arcanist after passing the [Ascending Ring Trial], but it gave people the feeling that he would definitely be able to do so.

When Tilak heard this, his eyes immediately became eager, without any hesitation, he said immediately: "We will definitely not abandon the tradition!"

In fact, the Jin Academy has already started discussing the necessity of the [Ascending Ring Trial], which obviously prolongs the upgrade time. If Xia Duo hadn't said today, he might secretly choose other ways to upgrade.

But now, Tilak just wants to let other ways to meet the undead, he only chooses [Ascending Ring Trial], compared to the slight upgrade time brought by [Ascending Ring Trial], he prefers to see The hope of becoming an Arcanist.

At this time, everyone in the conference room also heard the conversation between Xia Duo and Tilak, with different expressions on their faces, but the only thing in common is that they have more hope for the future.

After a while, members of the Advancement Society arrived one after another.

Including Dean and others who were temporarily transferred to Horst's laboratory to help with the design of the mass production plan, Ganal who had just met Xiaduo, and Deva who had been training astral mages in the plane exploration layer for a long time kindness.

Even several teachers that Xia Duo had just seen in the apprentice class classroom came here, such as Gibson, Harlan, Colin and other newly promoted mages.

They are also members of the Advancement Society.

Up to now, Xia Duo has incorporated all the newly promoted mages of the Tower of Time into the Academic Affairs Office. On the one hand, it is also to give them the opportunity to check for omissions and fill in the gaps in the teaching process, and improve the foundation.

On the other hand, this is actually a talent reserve mechanism.

At present, the Tower of Time can only provide jobs in the Academic Affairs Office and the Magic Technician Office for new mages. Xia Duo is a bit reluctant to let these newly grown mages become magic technicians, so he can only be a teacher first.

Of course, they may have been members of the Academic Affairs Office before they became official mages.

As long as they grow further, the outstanding ones may set up their own research laboratories like Tilak, or continue teaching tasks, and of course they may also become magic technicians.

For the study classes for low-level mages and the advanced classes for intermediate mages, Xia Duo treats them equally, no matter what department they belong to or what job they do, they can participate.

They all have a bright future.

……

As the number of people in this large conference room increased, in addition to some official mages that Xia Duo was already familiar with, there were also many new faces that Xia Duo didn't know very well.

Members of the Advancement Society are roughly divided into three levels——

Official members must be official mages;

Reserve members must be level 3 apprentices, that is, quasi-mages who have completed all apprenticeship courses and are only short of passing the [Ascending Ring Trial];
Prospective members must be apprentices who agree with the philosophy of entering the society, pass the assessment, and have certain potential.

As for those apprentices who are actively considering entering the society, strictly speaking, they are not counted as members of the society, and Xia Duo did not call them this time.

It's not a bad thing that many new faces have come this time. Xia Duo knows that this shows that his team is growing. At the same time, with Dean introducing him, he is not worried about admitting the wrong person.

In fact, with his current memory ability, as long as he knows the name and appearance once, he will never forget it again.

"This is Tai, who has just become a reserve member recently. She is very talented. Maybe we will have another companion in the near future!"

"This is Pierre, who has also recently become a reserve member. He has good talent."

In addition to the two new prospective members, Dean also introduced Shadow to some of the best of the incoming prospective members.

As for some relatively ordinary prospective members, only one name appeared, and not all of them had the opportunity to be commented by Dean.

Looking at Dean's majestic look when he introduced the comments, Xia Duo couldn't help being a little surprised. Two years ago, Dean was just an apprentice. At that time, he might not even be qualified to be commented by others.

Everything is different!
Xia Duo was quite emotional about this, but he didn't show anything on his face, and nodded with all the members. After a while, all 47 members of the Academy arrived.

Among them, there are 11 official members, that is, official mages.

Of course, except for Xia Duo, all of the 11 were low-level mages, including Gibson, Harlan, and Colin who had just become official mages not long ago.

There are 6 reserve members in total, and there were 7 before. But after Gibson and the other three became full-fledged mages and were replaced as full-fledged members, only Tai and Pierre were added later, and now there are only six people.

There are a total of 30 associate members, it's not that there can be more, but Xia Duo has restricted the unlimited expansion of the Academy.

Not to mention the current scale of nearly a thousand apprentices in the Tower of Time, even in the past, there were more than 300 apprentices. If you choose casually, there will not be only 30 apprentices.

In fact, there are a lot of apprentices who are actively relying on their careers to fully meet the conditions for prospective members, but the large number is not necessarily a good thing.

Sometimes giving a threshold will make people flock to it even more, which will affect the overall atmosphere and atmosphere of the Tower of Time.

However, Xia Duo is already considering slightly expanding the personnel limit of the Academy, and this time he is going to talk about it.

After all, with nearly a thousand apprentices undergoing college-style training, some will always stand out. Under the influence of the large base, the number of apprentices must not be a small number.

If these people are not members of the Jin Society, then what face does the Jin Society have for claiming to represent the three advancements!

It’s just that the Academy has its own rules. All members must be promoted step by step, and they are not allowed to skip promotion unless there are special circumstances. It would be bad to wait until the third-level apprentices appear among the new apprentices. At that time, should they become associate members?Or become a reserve member directly?

Or wait for them to become official mages, and then let them directly become official members?

Then they will not be able to receive the baptism of the complete organizational philosophy, which will be somewhat regrettable!

Therefore, it is necessary to gather them together in advance, and when they are still in a weak state, we must penetrate the organizational concept into their hearts, and continue to strengthen it in the future, so that it is possible for them to still agree with them after they are strong.

As for how to strengthen, there is no need for Xia Duo to worry too much. The organization naturally has the function of assimilating members. If you accept assimilation, you will feel at ease. If you don't accept it, you will only feel repelled.

The so-called purification does not require the controller to do it deliberately.

Of course, the premise of all this is that the organization has a relatively complete concept, or program, and a system to maintain the normal operation of the organization.

This is the system.

In the words of the magic world, once the power of order has been formed, it is destined to thrive!
For the time being, Xia Duo can't see the so-called power of order from the operation of the system, but he still knows the power of the system and has a deep understanding.
