Chapter 20: The Battle of Tutors, the late-stage Grand Mage Kurt!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
In the City-state of Gusteco, Principal Kurkas was known as the strongest person.
When John looked at him, the other party was also sizing him up. When Kurkas saw John’s indifferent expression, he immediately stood up.
“Kurkas Coles, from now on, you can directly call me Principal Kurkas. Congratulations, John Z. You have successfully passed my test.”
The others might not know what the meaning of this sentence was, but John was very clear that the other party was trying to use his mage psychic energy to test his psychic pressure.
The other party’s psychic pressure had reached the level intermediate mage, but John did not show any signs of pressure or discomfort.
And the other party also did not continue to be aggressive.
After releasing the psychic pressure, he withdrew the powerful psychic pressure.
Just as everyone was puzzled, Kurkas smiled kindly and said, “John Z., your talent is very high. Even I have never seen it before in my life. Here, on behalf of all the tutors of the Gusteco Mage Academy, I welcome your arrival. One day, you will make the students, and perhaps even the hope of the human race, turn over a new leaf!”
Hiss!
All the tutors present were shocked by Kurkas’ words.
There was no other reason.
Kurkas’ words were too solemn and affirmative!
He had even directly said it out loud!
Hope for a comeback for the human race!
Could it be that this young man in front of them had talent that could rival that of the legendary Grand Mage Founder!
If it were anyone else who said these words, they would definitely have caused a huge laugh. However, these words were said by Principal Kurkas!
No one would question Principal Kurkas’ words. They would only be shocked and astonished.
If that was the case, could it be that Principal Kurkas was completely certain that this young man would have the ability to lead the human race to a path of recovery in the future!
Oh god!
What kind of existence could rival the Grand Mage Founder and lead the human race to victory?!
These words were not groundless, because he could feel the psychic pressure he had just exerted.
John did not feel any pressure or discomfort at all.
In other words, John’s psychic energy might not only be at the intermediate level of a mage.
It was very likely that he had already reached the level of a Grand Mage!
It was just that John himself did not know, or it was simply impossible to test his hidden potential!
The reason why Kurkas did not continue the test was because he wanted to find a successor.
On the other hand, he was not a person who liked to bully the weak.
Since he already knew the other party’s strength, for him to be able to say this, there was naturally nothing strange about it.
He had really never seen a person who could achieve such powerful psychic energy while only cultivating the path of knights!
To be honest, even if he traveled around the country of the central region, he had never seen a human who had such powerful psychic energy from the beginning!
At the same time, after receiving the instructions of Principal Kurkas, John also came back to his senses.
If others knew about the invisible test of the two people just now, they would definitely be shocked!
“Thank you for the praise, Principal, and tutors. However, I still want to ask, how much should we pay for the tuition every year?”
John’s question was very straightforward. Moreover, he did not come here to learn human magic.
Instead, he came to see Princess Tish and complete the system mission.
Moreover, the tuition fee for the Gusteco Mage Academy would definitely not cheap. The tutors around were also stunned when they heard his words.
Suddenly, the office was filled with laughter.
The others were about to open their mouths, but when they saw the Principal, they wanted to say something but hesitated.
So, they waited until Principal Kurkas came to John’s side, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile,
“You’re worrying too much John Z., with your grades, as long as you become a part of the Gusteco Mage Academy, not to mention the annual tuition fee, in the future, the academy will also pay for all the magic materials and experimental fees that you personally spend in Gusteco Mage Academy!”
Damn!
It was no wonder that this place had become the City-state of Gusteco, and even the best academy in the human world.
This was because the policies and rules here were prepared for the truly talented mages!
“Alright, back to the main topic. Since the two of you have already chosen to join the academy, then let me introduce your next itinerary.”
“In short, normal freshmen usually begin their apprenticeship after they enter the academy. However, the two of you are an exception.”
“Personally, I hope that I can directly arrange for the two of you to join the third-year graduating class for academic study. The magic for the first and second-year students might not be able to greatly improve you.”
“At the same time, the academy will personally arrange your accommodation. Since you are brother and sister, you can also choose to live together. You only need to abide by the strictest rules of the academy. You are not allowed to study or study the two taboos of dark magic and necromancy. I can turn a blind eye to small matters.”
After hearing Kurkas’ words, John finally understood.
By brazenly opening the backdoor like this, the other party was completely trying to groom him as the successor!
The talent that he had displayed had completely attracted the attention and scrutiny of these people.
Even the Principal would make such a good request because of this.
However, the others did not know that he was a dragon and would leave this place sooner or later.
Kurkas winked at the servant next to him, and then the servant took out two exquisite robes.
“This afternoon, you’ll be able to enter the academy with this robe and start classes directly.”
“However, there’s another very important question.”
Amy and John took the robes and asked together:
“What is it?”
Through the expressions of the people around him, John could feel that something big was going to happen here today!
As expected!
Kurkas stood up and looked at the tutors behind John:
“According to what you’ve seen, the ten teachers present at Gusteco Mage Academy are all at least of mage level. You have to choose your tutors in the next few years.”
“So, please make your choice.”
In the next moment, without waiting for John to speak, the burly middle-aged mage among the tutors spoke.
“Principal, I feel that John is the most talented student in history, and he is also a dual-cultivation mage.”
“Furthermore, I am also a battle mage, so I should be the tutor of this student for the time being.”
The person who spoke was Kurt. When he said this, he deliberately said: “for the time being.”
It was because he knew that no matter what, John would eventually learn from Kurkas.
Moreover.
His strength was still that of a late-stage Grand Mage!
