Chapter 3: The First Test [Ilay]

"When the hourglass is reversed, the assessment will officially begin." Tolanche was holding a glass hourglass that was larger than the palm of his hand. Judging from the size, this hourglass can measure the time of a meal.

"When the hourglass is completely gone, even if there is a small piece of ice floating on the water, it cannot be considered a pass." Tolanche didn't know how many times he had explained the test rules to these students - after all, there were many of these people who had not passed the exam three or four times. Although calcite was only the lowest level in the magician class, students also needed to be able to release magic smoothly, otherwise it would be very difficult to learn other magic.

At this moment, the apprentices were ready; they sat on small wooden stools, put their hands between their thighs and held the iron basin containing ice, and just waited for Tolanche to give the order, they began to melt the ice with fire magic.

Ailey believes that such a posture is not easy to release magic - the assessment is the effect, so why should we pay too much attention to beauty?

Holding such a heavy lump of ice was too tired, and he was a little frozen. Aile simply put the basin on the stool and sat down on the ground. Then, he stretched out his arms, wrists on the stool, and covered his hands on both sides of the iron basin. He believed that this method was more effective for heating the ice.

Regarding Alay's posture, the apprentices just rolled their eyes: this guy usually adheres to "not taking the usual route", and it was expected that this incident was happening now; Tolanche believed that as long as it did not hinder others, even if he took the assessment upside down, there would be no problem.

"Then..." Tolanche said, turning the hourglass over, "starting."

Ailey, whose ears were plugged, naturally couldn't hear what Tolanche said. His eyes were only staring at the hourglass; after the hourglass was turned around, he closed his eyes and felt the magic in his body wholeheartedly.

The magic power of fire attribute is the easiest to be perceived by the human body - it will give people a feeling of "hotness"; after learning the theory of basic magic, you can try to transfer this heat to the palm of your hand and release it - this is the most basic magic, the Fiery Art; although no one has counted how many kinds of magic there are in total, in terms of difficulty, this "Fiery Art" is definitely the simplest of all magic.

When releasing this magic, the hands' perception of heat will become weaker and their tolerance to temperature will also increase - after all, fire-attribute magic itself is the process of releasing fire-attribute magic from the body. At this time, even if you encounter some hot things, you will not be injured.

Ai Lei was isolated from hearing and vision. If he could, he even wanted to hold his breath - of course, it would be too stupid to do that. He could feel that the magic of fire attributes was constantly passing through his arms towards the iron basin -

Can do it! Can do it!

Alay couldn't help but open his eyes and glance at how gorgeous the flames he released were; unfortunately, doing so would not help casting magic, but it might affect the normal release of magic because of being too excited.

Alay decided to keep it like this - according to this output efficiency, the magic in his body is still sufficient; when the exam is about to end, Teacher Tolanche will remind him.

Sure enough, after a long time, Tolanche's staff hit Ayre's head again. Tolanche had no choice but to hear him. There was so many apprentices here, he could not shout out without regard to the reserve of the elderly, right?

Ailey opened his eyes: the hourglass was only a little left; in one breath, the remaining bit completely slid down.

The assessment is over.

Ailey was not in a hurry to see how his ice melted - judging from the heat he felt just now, the ice definitely melted; in comparison, he was more interested in what other people had to evaluate.

A dozen people except Ailee basically had ice cubes of large or small in the basin; although they could summon the flames, the temperature of the flames was really uncommon. The best-achieving one should be Ailee's good friend Dahl, who only had a basin of water left in his iron basin, and there was no ice residue left at all.

Huh—Ailei was glad that his companion passed the assessment. Then his situation should be similar, right? As Ailei thought so, he turned his attention to the basin on his side—there should be a basin of water, right?

However, the basin was empty and there was nothing.

...Why is this happening!? Ailey looked at Tolanche with a surprised look, but the teacher gave him only a roll of his eyes; Ailey then noticed that the expressions of other apprentices looking at him were quite complicated.

Including Dahl - his expression, Aly looked familiar. When did he see it?

Well, it was the villagers' livestock fight that time. Dahl witnessed a big white goose driving away a wolfdog half a human tall with an extremely fierce attitude; he never expected that the goose would have such great combat power.

Ailei knew that he must have done something "extraordinary" to do.

"Teacher Tolanche..." Aire smiled awkwardly and pulled out the cotton stuffed in his ears. "What happened just now? Where is my water...or, my ice...?"

"Your ice has been burned into water." Tolanche said as he walked towards Alay, his expression looking a little gloomy, which scared Alay very much - he seemed to have done something bad?

"But...whether...whether the water?" Ailey's body instinctively shrank back, "This... no matter how bad my grades are, there will be...water, right? Why don't there be any water at all?"

"It's good to a certain extent!" Tolanche's slightly angry expression made people easily think of whether this "good" was talking nonsense: "You did a good job, it's really good! There is no doubt that you passed the exam, but you can't just leave...!"

Ailey was a little panicked: It seems that he has caused some trouble!

He looked at the situation in front of him carefully - he didn't notice at all just now that the stool had been burned by the fire-attribute magic he released, leaving only a broken rack that could barely put down the iron basin.

The stool was made of wood, and the temperature was too high and it would burn out. Before the exam, Alay completely left this behind.

"Where did the water go? Who did the water go??" Tolanche cursed, and swung his staff and hit Aly in the face: "You have boiled the water! After the water goes to boil, they keep burning it all! Where did you say you have gone? The stools are burned, you closed your eyes and blocked your ears and can't see or hear! I'm just a few solid wood stools for apprentices! Today, if you don't pay for the stool money, don't think of this door!"
