And so.
Old Greensford coughed twice, put on his glasses again, and said to the two with a kind smile:
“If you need magic treatment, Old Greensford can help you arrange it now, but your brother has to accept the next magic test.”
Greensford narrowed his eyes and stroked his beard. He quickly withdrew his shocked expression and tried to maintain an enigmatic look.
After all, he was a tutor of the Gusteco Mage Academy. If he was shocked to the point of making a fool of himself just because of a student’s talent…
That would be too embarrassing, wouldn’t it?
However, the cries of surprise from the surrounding people were endless.
“How is that possible? Did this lady learn magic by herself? She actually has such powerful psychic energy!”
“I remember that even the Gusteco Mage Academy seems to have produced a person with such powerful psychic energy in the past two years!”
“Of course, that lady is the Princess of the City-state of Gusteco, and she has a strong affinity for the water element. However, I think that this lady’s psychic energy is not much weaker than that of the princess. This is the psychic energy of a Grand Mage!”
“…”
Facing the exclamations of the crowd, Old Greensford tried his best to maintain his calm and composed face.
However, he was also very surprised by Amy’s talent. The last person who had such high psychic energy was…
It was the Princess of Gusteco!
Princess Tish, who had strong psychic energy and had a 60% affinity with the water element!
If he could, he really hoped that Amy would be his student.
However, the following exclamations of the other students made it impossible for him to remain calm.
“How… How is this possible?! This is the psychic energy of an intermediate mage! Who Is this young man? This is the psychic energy of a mage!”
“Impossible! It’s impossible for any new member to have the psychic energy of a mage! There must be something wrong with the crystal ball! I want to re-test! Or… change the crystal ball!”
“The psychic energy of an intermediate mage… doesn’t that mean that he can become the youngest Grand Mage in Gusteco with just a little bit of study? Oh my god! How is this possible!”
“…”
The psychic energy of an intermediate mage?!
Even Old Greensford was suspicious of this exclamation.
Psychic energy did not represent the level of a mage.
It was considered a mage’s talent and the maximum amount of mana he could absorb.
In other words, a mage’s psychic energy determined how powerful a mage could use magic in the future, and also determined his maximum mana!
And because of their powerful psychic energy, these people would have a much easier time learning magic compared to others.
Their psychic energy determined the upper limit of their magic attainments!
As for John, he remained calm in the face of everyone’s shock.
That was because he knew how talented he was in magic from the very beginning.
After all, he was a dragon that could make the entire world proud!
This race was born to be favored by magic!
The psychic energy of the dragon race was naturally stronger than that of humans. Even John, who had never learned psychic magic, could influence the spiritual world of humans to a certain extent!
From this, one could see how much the heavens favored this race.
At the same time, this was also the reason why the dragon race was so proud!
To be honest, his psychic energy was not just that!
His psychic energy had even reached the late stage of a Grand Mage level. However, if he were to use it all at once, it would definitely arouse suspicion.
Therefore, John only used a portion of his psychic energy.
At this time, many students, including Old Greensford, who was pretending to be calm.
They were all waiting in their hearts for the big surprise that this genius sister and brother would give them!
Was he stronger or weaker than his sister?
Now it seemed that Princess Tish, whom they had called a genius, paled in comparison to Miss Amy!
It wasn’t because they weren’t talented. It was because John’s psychic energy was too strong, beyond their comprehension!
Even Old Greensford could not hold back the excitement in his heart. The profound and calm look he had before had long disappeared.
Now, it seemed that the brother of this genius sister was not a genius or monster; these two words could not describe a mage with such a powerful talent!
Oh god!
“This… how is this possible! Could it be that the City-state of Gusteco is going to have another Divine Mage!?”
“No… not just a Divine Mage, but even… even surpassing the Principal! Becoming the most powerful Mage King on this continent!”
Old Greensford’s tone gradually became agitated, and he couldn’t help but tremble. Beads of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
That was because the last person who possessed mage-level psychic energy was the Principal of the Gusteco Mage Academy!
Could it be that the person who surpassed the Principal had appeared in front of him today?
“How is this a genius! This is clearly the chosen one who was privately chosen by the God of Magic!”
“Little brother, what kind of potion did you drink when you were young? If possible, can you recommend it to me? I will definitely buy it with a large sum of money!”
“That’s not right. Why don’t you re-check the test crystal ball? What if there is something wrong with the crystal ball! I remember that the last person who had reached the level of a mage’s psychic energy was only Principal Kurkas! Moreover, I remember that his psychic energy was only at the initial stage of a mage!”
“…”
Old Greensford naturally heard these words. To be honest, he did not believe in the brainless statement that the crystal ball had a problem.
Their Gusteco Mage Academy, even in the entire human world, could be ranked as a top academy.
Even some of the students from the central region countries would specially let their citizens come here for training. How could they say that such a low-level problem had appeared in an academy like theirs?
This was simply a joke!
However, Old Greensford took off his glasses and looked at the youth in front of him who had the potential to surpass Principal Kurkas.
“If it’s possible, can you extend your hand for me to check?”
To be honest, he still wanted to confirm it. If such a strong student with such strong psychic energy was delayed in other places.
Their City-state of Gusteco might very well lose a person who surpassed the Principal of the Mage Academy!
If such a talent was delayed, he, who advocated magic, might very likely be immersed in regret and distress for the rest of his life!
John did not care at all and sent his hand out.
After all, the other party’s attitude and tone made people feel comfortable from the beginning.
At least, it was not to the extent that it made people feel disgusted.
Old Greensford glanced at John. After getting confirmation from the other party, a red halo appeared on his right hand, and he grabbed the main character’s wrist. Then, he closed his eyes to sense and read out word by word.
“Psychic energy: Intermediate Mage!”
“Magic Perception: Highest level!”
“Elemental Attribute Affinity: Fire-type!”
