Journey to Azeroth

Chapter 21 Apprentice Qualification Test
The open space in the middle of the hall was crowded with people, all of whom were mage apprentices with mage qualifications. Humans accounted for the majority, a small number of high elves, and a few dwarves were mixed in. Karl even saw a dwarf, which is very rare. .

As we all know, Quel'Thalas is a magical kingdom. Compared with Dalaran, the magic level is relatively higher, and the qualification requirements for mage apprentices are also higher. Therefore, there are some apprentices who fail in Quel'Thalas every year. Run Dalaran to try your luck, after all, you can find a mentor as long as you reach C in Arcane Affinity in Dalaran.

Karl's situation is quite special. Karl's full name is Karl Xingchen. There is no such name as Xingchen in Quel'Thalas, but there is a surname that is closer to Chenxing, and he is a declining branch of the Chenxing family. The competition is fierce and crowded out.

Karl refused to admit that he was a member of the Morningstar family, and changed his surname to Star without permission. He was desperate in Quel'Thalas and had no choice but to accept the support of the Windrunner family to come to Dalaran to learn magic.

The three walked up to Karthus, bowed and saluted: "Good day, Your Royal Highness."

Kael'thas enthusiastically pulled a few people up, looked at Karl, winked his eyes, and whispered, "How about super magic, is it easy to use?"

Karl nodded reflexively, showing surprise, "Your Highness, how do you know?"

Smiling mysteriously, Kael'thas made a silent gesture.

The three of them bid farewell to Kael'thas, and found a seat near the front of the auditorium. The mistress Elona abandoned the two of them in less than a minute, and went to the other side of the auditorium to have a lively chat with Gina Golden Sword Mage.

Karl lay lazily on the table, leisurely looking at the mage apprentices waiting for the aptitude test.

Desai next to him went too far, sitting on the seat in a decadent posture of Uncle Ge, "I find it really enjoyable to sit on my waist."

The decadent posture of the two immediately attracted the attention of others. The Mage Association was short of manpower, so they had no choice but to grab the young man from the position of observing the ceremony, and the lazy behavior of the two was immediately pulled over to serve as coolies.

"The big shots are enjoying the show above, but we are the busiest ones!" Karl couldn't help complaining.

Several mages were in a hurry to maintain order in the crowd. Desai took the list and confirmed the names with the mages of the association. Several mages struggled to carry the three test equipments.

Qualification testing equipment, a combination of machinery and magic, is inlaid with corresponding magic crystals, which correspond to the affinity of arcane, fire element, and water element respectively. Several mages hurried over to help.

Karl was speechless, you are mages, you move things with bare hands, "Look at me."

"Hand of the Mage!"

With a pull, the device flew out of the mage's hand.

"Don't!" Several mages tried to stop it, and then saw the device fly forward for a certain distance and land firmly on the ground.

Everyone was dumbfounded. Generally speaking, each spell has a certain range. As a 0-level spell, the mage's hand can carry 0-100 kilograms.

This qualification test equipment is close to 80 kg, which is also the reason for carrying it. Apparently several mages do not have the confidence to transport equipment with mage hands. Of course, if you cooperate with skilled mages, you can cooperate with several people to carry it with mage hands, but it is very risky. The loss outweighs the gain.

Karl himself didn't feel anything, shrugged his shoulders, and watched as several mages struggled to move the other two test equipment over and carefully placed them on the ground.

Desai ran over and threw a stack of papers to Karl, which recorded the list of people who participated in the test. Karl looked at the mage apprentices who were about to participate in the aptitude test with great interest. Most of them looked nervous. Playing around, manipulating a piece of paper with the hands of a mage to change different shapes, Carl dared to say that none of the mage apprentices present could do it. A red-haired young man was chatting wildly with the people around him.

The leading mage cast a spell to make his voice deafening, and shouted to the noisy crowd: "Silence!"

With a few "silence", the crowd gradually quieted down.

"First of all, welcome to Dalaran. The mage apprentice qualification test will start soon." The mages talked about efficiency, without boring nonsense, and went straight to the point.

"The test results will affect whether you can stay in Dalaran to study magic," cleared his throat, pointed to the testing equipment and continued: "Mage apprentice qualification test, these three equipment will test corresponding to arcane, fire and ice, The results of the test are used to judge whether it has the potential to become a mage."

"The person whose name I called came forward to conduct arcane, fire and ice aptitude tests."

"Diana!"

Frantically looking for the corresponding name in a stack of forms recording apprentice information, Karl soon found that this mage apprentice named Diana was placed first in the information. It seems that some careful mages have put these mage apprentices The information was carefully sorted out, and Karl silently praised him in his heart.

A human girl with long black hair stepped forward.

Pulling out the quill, Karl recorded on Diana's information: Arcane Affinity D, Fire Elemental Affinity D, Water Elemental Affinity C.

"Katie!"

Arcane Affinity C, Fire Elemental Affinity D, Water Elemental Affinity B.

Karl gave a passing evaluation, and joining the Mage Association is not a big problem. Of course, this is just an evaluation in his heart. After all, he is just a recorder, and the professional mages of the Mage Association should evaluate whether he is qualified or not.

"Black Hammer!"

There was silence in the hall, and the mage apprentices looked at each other to see who looked like Black Hammer.

"Black Hammer!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

There was a crashing sound coming from behind the apprentice mage, the crowd moved out of the way, and a dwarf with brown hair appeared in front of them.

His thick beard was woven into braids and hung down his chest. He wore a dwarf horn helmet on his head, heavy dwarf armor on his body, and two throwing axes pinned to his waist.

In the surprised eyes of a group of people, he walked forward calmly.

Carl couldn't help complaining: "This big dwarf brother is a warrior no matter what, he's the kind who can fight, and he looks so calm and calm in armor weighing dozens of pounds. There's really no way to connect him with a mage apprentice."

The apprentice named Black Hammer calmly conducted tests in front of the three crystals one by one.

Arcane Affinity D, Fire Elemental Affinity A, Water Elemental Affinity B.

Black shook his head and returned to the crowd, clearly dissatisfied with the test results.

The test results of the high elves are very mediocre. None of the arcane affinity reached B, and they all hovered between CDs. After all, these mage apprentices all failed in Quel'Thalas. Due to the requirements of Dalaran Quel'Thalas is lower, come here to try your luck, people who can reach Arcane Affinity B have already been robbed in Quel'Thalas.

In Karl's memory, during the mage apprentice qualification test the year before last, Desai and Leonard even fought a duel between mages in order to compete for who could be his mentor.

The result of the duel is self-evident, and Desai becomes Karl's mentor.
