Chapter 224: This world is too boring
. The Magic Spirit Tower cheered completely the moment Duke walked out of the testing room.
A new record was born. A genius arcane mage was promoted from level 1 to level 2 at the fastest speed, announcing that genius is not a meteor that passes by in a flash, but is born like the rising sun.
"I think there should be a bell-ringing ceremony." Chief Director Orucci announced loudly.
In fact, there is no corresponding bell-ringing ceremony for the promotion of arcane mages. The bell-ringing ceremony is specially set up for new arcane mages.
But Duke's promotion this time broke the record of the Seven Towers Federation.
Not one record, but two records.
"According to the data, the youngest second-level arcane mage in the Seven Towers Federation is recorded to be twenty-two years old." Joanna read the information in her hand, "This second-level arcane mage naturally opened the spiritual sea at the age of thirteen, and at fifteen He was promoted to the Arcane Mage at the age of 22, and was promoted to the 2nd level at the age of 22. He finally succeeded in passing away as the 7th level Morning Star Arcane Master." He opened the
spiritual sea at the age of 13, and was promoted to the Arcane Mage at the age of 15.
Even Duke had to exclaim a genius after hearing this, but this genius' record was eventually broken by Duke.
At this moment, when everyone looked at Duke, their eyes had changed.
In the past, the 7-level Morning Star Arcane Master was promoted to the 2nd level at the age of 22, but now Duke was promoted to the 2nd level at the age of 19. Does this mean that Duke's potential even surpasses the 7th level?
No way of knowing.
After all, there are too many restrictive factors in the cultivation of spiritual arcana. It is not just talent and understanding that can lead to a smooth journey.
Too many dazzling talents have high hopes, but they falter at a certain stage and eventually fade into obscurity.
It can only be said that Duke has boundless potential, but no one is sure whether it can be realized. It will take time to test.
"The two records belong to our Faling Tower in Shenjiao City. I think the chief director's proposal is very good. It deserves a bell-ringing ceremony." Director Felibre agreed.
Two directors, Malxiu and Bartlow, also agreed.
So the bell-ringing ceremony was decided.
Everyone took the spiritual ladder and went straight to the top floor.
Climb one more level up to the bell-ringing room, where a huge bell hangs. The entire body is made of spiritual gold, and the clock face is engraved with dense patterns.
Some well-informed reporters had already arrived in advance and stood in the corner of the bell-ringing room, holding slide cards and notebooks, ready to record this unique bell-ringing ceremony.
Chief Director Oruqi stroked his snow-white beard and said excitedly: "Since the establishment of the Seven Towers Federation, countless arcanist ancestors have followed one after another, exploring the path of spiritual arcana, creating our current prosperous age, and leaving behind many legacy Precious record."
After a pause.
He looked at Duke and said in a loud voice: "And today, the record of the youngest 2nd level Arcane Mage and the fastest to be promoted to 2nd level Arcane Mage was broken by Duke, our registered Arcane Mage from Shenjiao City Magic Spirit Tower. This is Black Jiao The glory of Riverland is also the glory of all our arcane mages."
"Everything is spiritual guidance!"
He handed the metal rod for ringing the bell to Duke and continued: "Next, Duke will ring the bell himself. , tell Heijiao River, tell everyone in Shenjiao City that an outstanding arcane mage is writing his legendary poem." The
second time I rang the bell, I had the same mentality as the first time I rang the bell. Completely different.
Holding the metal rod and walking slowly to the big clock, Duke turned around and glanced at the smiling faces around him.
No more nervousness when ringing the bell for the first time, and anxious expectations for the future.
At this moment, his mentality was calm and exciting, but more importantly, he felt a sense of control over the future victory.
This is destined not to be the pinnacle of his life, but just a beautiful sight in the process of climbing to the top.
next moment.
The metal rod struck the bell hard.
Buzz, buzz, buzz...
The bells blessed by spiritual power began to spread from the Magic Spirit Tower, and spread dozens of kilometers in a flash, without attenuating at all.
The entire Shenjiao City was enveloped by the sound of bells, and the bells could be heard in every household.
"Listen, listen quickly, it's the bell, the bell of the Magic Tower, the arcane mage has been promoted!" the citizens shouted loudly.
"There is Master Arcane Mage again. The spirituality of our Shenjiao City is really strong. In the past three or four years, we have promoted three Arcana Mage Masters!" "Don't forget that there is also a erudite among them, Mr. Duke
, the Son of Light!" "
No. I know which arcane mage it is this time."
"I'm so lucky, another dragon among people has been favored by spirituality... Alas, I am also a spiritual apprentice, but I can't even understand the twists and turns of energy lines. Apprentice stalled at Star Two."
"I'm going to order tomorrow's newspaper to get to know this new arcane mage."
For the citizens, the bell-ringing ceremony is a piece of news in their lives, and it just adds a little more material for chatting. There is really no more connection.
But for the employees of Faling Tower, they were very excited.
For every bell-ringing ceremony, everyone can get double their salary for a month. Such benefits make all employees wish they could ring the bell every day.
However, it often only takes place once every few years.
"Do you think I can get double salary for this bell-ringing ceremony?" Suddenly an employee asked worriedly.
"Why can't you take it?"
"But even though the bell is ringing, there is no new Arcane Mage. It's just a special ceremony arranged by several directors for Lord Duke. Maybe it doesn't comply with the regulations of the Magic Spirit Tower." "
This That's true."
"That's not true. The bell has been rung, so you can't get double the salary, right?"
The employees in the department couldn't figure out the reason, so they encouraged the department head: "Mr. Weirgang, please help us ask. For this bell-ringing ceremony, do you think I can get double salary?"
He shook the collar of his clothes.
Weir Gang, the director of the Meditation Law Department, took the spiritual ladder to the top floor and prepared to personally ask the Ao Mage in the tower whether today's bell-ringing ceremony would enjoy the benefits of a normal ceremony.
Entering the bell-ringing room, Will just saw Duke, who had just finished ringing the bell, being interviewed by reporters under the big clock.
"You are so young!" Weir Gang sighed in his heart. "Compared to when I was promoted to Arcane Mage a few years ago, my appearance has not changed much, but my demeanor has become calmer and my aura has become stronger... Spiritual guidance has made me Witness the growth of a proud man."
He still vaguely remembered the first time he met Duke.
Was it outside the Magic Spirit Tower, with Duke lingering at the gate, or was he leading Duke into the Magic Spirit Tower: "If you think about it, I am still Duke's leader in spiritual arcana." Of course
.
He only dared to think about this idea in his mind and did not dare to express it at all.
After listening to Duke's interview for a while, he found Director Philibert in the crowd: "Master Director, are the benefits for this bell-ringing ceremony the same as usual?" Philibert responded calmly: "Of course, ring the bell
. The purpose of the ceremony is to celebrate with the people and share the glory of the arcane mage. Now the glory of Duke can naturally be shared by the entire Magic Spirit Tower, and all the benefits will be distributed as usual." "Then I'm relieved." Will
Gang He breathed a sigh of relief.
For a "civil servant" like him, although his income is not low and he is not short of food and drink, who would think it's too much if he can get an extra month's salary.
Seeing that the interview was over, Duke and others had already gone downstairs, and Will just returned to his department to announce the news that benefits would be distributed as usual.
This time.
Cheers broke out in the department office.
"Long live Lord Duke!"
"May the spirit always care for you and guide you, Lord Duke!"
"I hope Lord Duke can come to the Magic Tower to ring the bell every year. It would be better if he could come every month!" "
Every day. Wouldn't it be better to come?"
A young employee said: "I have been working in Faling Tower for a short time, but I can enjoy three bell-ringing benefits in four years. And two times are from the proud man Duke, and one benefit is from the source. Lord Kylia, the beloved daughter of heaven, tusk, may the spirit guide you two adults!" "The
proud man of heaven and the beloved daughter of heaven are really a match!"
...
Union Tower, top five tower conference center.
The top buds of the Mysterious Vine strive to grow towards the direction of the sun. Around the huge circular conference table, five Grand Arcana mages are having a heated discussion.
Christian Fury, Williams, Irvine, Stephen Wings, and Bernoulli.
"Cuihai City must not be controlled by one family. Bernoulli, your conditions are indeed good. You have reached an agreement with the Black Jade Horseshoe Dragon to reduce the losses in the pioneering war. But one Black Jade Horseshoe Dragon is not enough to make Cuihai City Become your jurisdiction,” Williams said coldly.
Bernoulli responded calmly: "Two cities in one place, with the scale of Heijiao River, it is difficult to support it. If it cannot be calmed down quickly, other cities will definitely intervene. By then, you may not be able to guarantee your interests in Cuihai City. "
Haha, you are not ashamed to say that, you are also from a foreign city!" Stephen Yihu said unceremoniously.
"I'm different." Bernoulli's expression remained unchanged, "I have joined the Black Dragon River Land, and the Holy City of Offa has also approved my launch of the pioneering war. My interests are actually the same as everyone's." "Okay,
Stephen , don’t call Bernoulli the name of a foreign city in the future." Erwin laughed, "But Bernoulli, you are too greedy when it comes to the interests of Cuihai City. This new city must not be left to your control. Come and undertake the construction."
"Am I still greedy? It's up to you to dig the spiritual mines, and the mining rights of the spiritual mines in the area under the jurisdiction of Cuihai City are handed over to Xibiti. I am sincere enough to give up such a big benefit!
" After a pause, Bernoulli said angrily: "I'm even willing to give up the ancient spirit in the spring of spirituality. Isn't that enough?" "How can
a mere ancient spirit be used to argue? "Stephen Yihu mocked again.
"Just an ancient spirit?" Bernoulli was so angry that he wanted to laugh, "Does your mage tower have an ancient spirit? Has an ancient spirit appeared in the Winged Tiger family? This is an ancient spirit, not an elf. As a tower Spirit, it is the guarantee of the immortality of the family inheritance!"
At this time, Christian Raging Waves, who had been squinting his eyes and letting a few people quarrel back and forth.
Suddenly he spoke: "Okay, I want the ancient spirit, Bernoulli. Originally, even if Cuihai Valley became your fiefdom, this ancient spirit would have to be taken out." "Why?" Bernoulli was unconvinced
. , "You already have one in your Raging Waves family!"
"For no reason, I have already given this ancient spirit away."
"You...who did you give it to?" Bernoulli continued to ask without giving up.
But Christian sneered: "Who did I give it to? Do I need to report this to you? It is my kindness to you to allow you to set foot in the Black Dragon River, so don't push it too far!" "I don't mean to do that
! ."
"If not, let's continue the discussion."
Christian returned to his previous attitude, squinting his eyes and letting several fourth-level earth mages argue back and forth.
He is a fifth-level ocean arcane mage, one level higher, and he is still an arcanist. His strength is his greatest confidence to watch the show.
"The spirituality of the Black Jade River Land is insufficient. Cuihai City wants to refuse interference from other cities. Reaching a contract with the Black Jade Horseshoe Dragon is the best way to solve it. I have established an alliance with the Black Jade Horseshoe Dragon and the entire Black Jade Scorpion group. Initial trust!"
Bernoulli said loudly: "Once Yalong joins, I can guarantee that this will be the final link to complete the spirituality of Black Dragon River!"
It was at this time.
A melodious, long and steady bell sounded, buzzing through the wall of the Union Tower, causing the top buds of the Mysterious Vine to tremble.
When Stephen Yihu heard this, he burst out laughing: "It's ridiculous, Bernoulli, didn't you say that the spirituality of the Black Dragon River is insufficient? Listen, what is this? It's the bell of the Faling Tower. I, Black Dragon, Another Arcane Mage was born in the Riverland!"
Williams also laughed: "Duke, Kylia, and this new Arcane Mage, three Arcane Mage have been promoted in four years, my spirituality is with me!"
Bo The excited expression on Nuli's face was awkward. He was promoted to three arcane mages in four years. Such a frequency is indeed difficult to describe as a lack of spirituality.
However, he was deeply cultivated and quickly adjusted: "Compared to other cities, the spirituality of Heijiao River cannot be said to be less."
He said sincerely: "But everyone, there are two cities in one place. Once Cuihai City is established, Heijiaohe Land will be more spiritual." The spirituality of Jiaohe Land is indeed enough. I have reached a contract with the Black Jade Scorpion Clan, and Cuihai City will have a protective barrier. After decades or hundreds of years, Cuihai City will be impregnable." "Don't listen, don't listen.
" Williams shook his head, "Anyway, I still want to hunt the Black Jade Horseshoe Dragon. The blood feud in Shenjiao City must be avenged!"
Stephen Yihu nodded: "That's right."
Bernoulli looked at El Wen, Erwin said haha: "Let's discuss it again, don't be anxious."
Christian Fury, who had watched the show for a long time, stretched out his arms: "Okay, let's discuss it another day, I'll go find out about me Black Jiaohe Land, the little guy who has just been promoted. Oops, I can’t get enough of the newcomers, and I can’t bear to look at old faces like you for even a quarter of an hour.” So the meeting ended in vain
.
Bernoulli left the conference room, and he seemed to be less excited. He happily put his hands behind his back and followed Keystone: "Chief Consul, let me also see the newcomers in the Black Flood River. You won't hide this." Just tuck it in."
"Haha, it's up to you." Christian yawned.
Soon, the staff of the Union Tower received the accurate information from the Faling Tower and came forward to report: "Chief Consul, Mr. Bernoulli, according to the report of the Faling Tower, there is no bell ringing ceremony. Newly promoted Arcane Mage."
"What?" Christian frowned.
Bernoulli smiled and narrowed his eyes: "There is no new Arcane Mage, so why is the Magic Spirit Tower ringing the bell? This is no joke."
When Christian heard this, he snorted.
The staff said cautiously: "According to reports, the bell-ringing ceremony is because Duke, the 1st-level arcane mage and scholar, was promoted to the 2nd-level arcane mage, breaking the record of the youngest 2nd-level arcane mage in the Seven Towers Federation, and The record for the fastest promotion to the 2nd level Arcane Mage is hereby held."
"Hmm!" It was Kisson's turn to smile broadly, "Seriously, this guy Duke has been promoted to the 2nd level Arcane Mage?" "
It's true in the report. Presented like this."
"Haha, good!" Christiansen laughed, "The youngest 2nd level Arcane Mage, the fastest to be promoted to 2nd level Arcane Mage, the record of the entire Seven Towers Federation was broken by my little kid from Black Dragon River. Got it!"
He hugged Bernoulli and said, "Come on, I'll take you to meet my young people from the Black River River, and let you see where the spiritual beings from the Black River River have gone!"
Bernu The smile on Lee's face was awkward: "That's not necessary, I've met Duke." "
That's no good, you have to go. As seniors on the path of spiritual arcana, we must not hesitate to encourage and support our juniors!" Keith Dun hugged Bernoulli tightly, then turned around and shouted, "Williams, Erwin, Stephen, let's go together!"
Erwin and the other three quickly followed and went together.
...
Penrose Wizard Tower.
Penrose was giving lessons to Kiria Furious Waves. As a junior of Keyston, even if Kiriya had no talent, Penrose would not dare to just perfunctory the lesson.
When he started taking classes, he was much more serious than Professor Duke.
"This circuit structure must be continuously drawn and engraved on the premise of fully delineating the psychic energy, so that the energy line can remain stable." Penrose was operating the steady-state ring position meter while teaching in detail, "Understand Have you?"
Kiliya nodded, then shook her head: "I generally understand, but there are some things I don't understand. This circuit..."
Listening to Kiliya's question.
Penrose had no expression on his face, but he sighed slightly in his heart: "This is normal teaching. The teacher teaches patiently, and the students just ask if they don't understand. It's not like someone..." Then
he thought that when he taught Duke before, he basically taught He nodded casually and perfunctorily, preparing to ask questions that Duke didn't understand.
Then.
Duke nodded and said yes.
And occasionally he would ask questions, but they were inferential questions. Some questions made him, as a tutor, unable to answer them right away.
Comparing the two, I feel more and more that it is better to teach ordinary people and feel relaxed.
Buzz...
The bell came from outside the window, waking Penrose from his memories. He listened carefully and said calmly: "Don't be affected, let's continue teaching." "Yes, mentor." Kylia no longer paid attention to the bell
. Voice.
But not long after, Secretary Levsky knocked on the door and came in: "Sir, Your Excellency Kylia, I'm sorry to disturb you."
"What's the matter?" Penrose asked.
"I just received the news that the bell-ringing ceremony was not about a new arcane mage, but that Duke was promoted to a second-level arcane mage, breaking the record of the Seven Towers Federation, so the bell-ringing ceremony was held." Levski Give a brief explanation.
As soon as the words came out.
But both Penrose and Kilia were stunned.
Kiriya reacted very quickly and immediately exclaimed: "Has Duke been promoted to the second level Arcane Mage? This is too fast, too fast!"
Although she was very aware of Duke's talent, it took two and a half years for him to be promoted. 2 rings, she still couldn't understand.
Penrose on the other side did not say any words. In fact, he had thousands of words in his heart that he wanted to express, but in the end they were choked in his throat and he could not say a word.
I can only keep reminding myself.
"Be prepared. Maybe in ten years, maybe only five years, a card-making scholar will appear. I have to work hard, but I can't be surpassed by a junior in the field of card-making... In addition, my cultivation must be accelerated. I have a chance to reach the fourth level!"
If he doesn't reach the fourth level as soon as possible, he worries that in the near future, his level will be surpassed by his juniors.
"Mentor, mentor!" Kiriya called.
Only then did Penrose come back to his senses: "What?"
"Duke is still in the Magic Spirit Tower. Should we go over to see him and hear how he practiced so quickly and was promoted to a second-level arcane mage?" Kilia Already a little impatient.
Penrose thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay, let's go and have a look."
He really wanted to know how Duke cultivated to his current level and how he could satisfy his spiritual core in less than three years. conditions for evolution?
Wait until you go downstairs.
Then he found that two assistants, Vikas and Lidman, were already waiting at the door, followed closely by Oriana, Balza, and Blanc.
"You?" Penrose frowned.
Vikas smiled and said: "Teacher, Duke was with our classmates. He was promoted to the second ring. We should go and congratulate him." "Yes, yes,
tutor, we just happened to go over and have a look." Oriana also He smiled and said, "We have been together for more than two years, and I really miss Duke. I just happened to go over to share Duke's glory and miss the past." We have been together for
two years.
It is indeed a fate. Penrose frowned: "Then let's go, let's go there together." ... "
I
have practiced my exclusive meditation method very quickly. I currently have 11 kinds of visions. I have also understood the guardian vine of mystery. ."
In the conference hall.
Duke, who had just finished ringing the bell, was invited here by Chief Director Orucci to exchange experiences after accepting a brief interview with reporters.
When every arcane mage is promoted, he will leave a teaching speech at the Magic Spirit Tower.
Sharing one's own cultivation experience to help those who are behind in learning is the consistent proposition of Faling Tower and the tradition of the Seven Towers Federation.
Without sharing, there would be no prosperity of spiritual arcana today.
"I'm very busy during the day, but once I have a little free time, I will build arcane wonders. I only need to ensure normal sleep at night, and the rest of the time will be spent practicing." Duke walked back and forth on the stage, "I don't I deny that I have a certain amount of talent, but hard work and sweat are the steps to my progress."
He suddenly faced the audience and said loudly: "Genius is 1% inspiration, plus 99% sweat!"
There was a burst of applause. Come.
Effort is always worthy of recognition.
When the applause subsided, Duke smiled slightly: "Of course, it is undeniable that I am still a level 2 elf user, and I have an elf. Every time I practice, I will merge with the elf and enter the elf form, which will greatly improve My cultivation efficiency."
Duke's face was not red and he was out of breath, and he put Xiao Yi's training day and night into his own body.
Xiaoyi is a part of him, and what's Xiaoyi's is naturally his.
certainly.
He also knew that his cultivation experience would not be of any help to those who were less advanced. It was not considered poisonous, but it was definitely not chicken soup.
So I quickly finished sharing my cultivation experience. Seeing that it was still early, the speech obviously couldn’t be so short.
Duke spun around on the stage.
Then his expression gradually changed from the previous cheerful one to a solemn one, as if some big news was brewing. Their eyes focused on his face, and everyone couldn't help but lift their spirits.
At this time, the door to the conference room was pushed open.
A group of gray-haired elderly people entered the conference room with a group of entourage, which quickly caused a commotion in the conference room.
Even Duke couldn't help but be surprised.
The visitors turned out to be several great arcane mages from Shenjiao City, as well as Bernoulli who came from Angry Point City. Each of them was a big shot who could make earthquakes by stomping his feet - he really could make earthquakes.
Oruch stood up to greet him, receiving a knowing look from Christian Raging Waves.
Then he immediately shouted loudly: "Everyone, be quiet, be quiet, and listen patiently to Duke sharing his cultivation insights... Duke, don't be disturbed by the audience. Everyone is here to listen to your speech. You can say whatever you want." Don’t worry about what you say.”
However, it seemed as if he had received some signal.
Keyston and other big shots had just entered. Before Oruch finished speaking, another group of people opened the door and came in. It was Penrose leading several students, and another 3rd-level arcane mage, Scott Yihu, leading Come in with Shan Feisi and other students.
Then several more third-level arcane mages came with the students.
Upon seeing this, Oruqi bared his teeth, walked over to Christian and the others, and asked in a low voice: "Chief Consul, why don't you wait a moment, and while there is still time, ask every mage tower I can send invitations to everyone."
"That's fine, everyone has a lot of time anyway, so it's not worth it." Christian agreed happily.
Arcane mages have a long lifespan, and they don't rush into practice and research. It doesn't matter if they delay for a long time, at least it doesn't matter to Christian.
so.
This sharing speech took a full hour to wait.
Duke went backstage to rest early in the morning, closed his eyes and pondered silently for a long time, waiting for Oruch to send someone to inform him.
He opened his eyes suddenly, and a bright light flashed past.
Then he strode onto the podium and looked around. The audience was crowded with people. Probably half of the arcane mages in Shenjiao City were here.
The youngest second-level arcane mage in the entire Seven Towers Federation, and even in the entire human society, deserves such recognition.
Take a deep breath.
Duke resolutely launched the speech plan he had prepared, and his voice was low but clearly reached everyone's ears: "This world is too boring!"
