279 – Yang Feng’s Disciples
Arthur came up to the middle-aged Wizard and thanked him respectfully: “Sir, I am Arthur, and this is my sister, Beth . Thank you very much for helping us . ”
Beth bowed slightly to the middle-aged Wizard in salute and said respectfully: “Thank you, Sir!”
The middle-aged Wizard swept the pair of siblings with a glance and said with aloofness and concealed disdain: “Don’t thank me . I’m just following Sir Ian’s orders . ”
“Let’s go!” After leaving behind a few words indifferently, the middle-aged Wizard strode outside the slums under the escorts of the Great Knight rank powerhouse . He didn’t want to spend a minute longer in the sewage-infested, reeking slums .
Arthur detected the hidden disdain in the words of the middle-aged Wizard . He understood that the middle-aged Wizard was only following Sir Ian’s orders and had no good will towards the both of them .
Arthur very astutely followed behind the middle-aged Wizard with his sister and quickly left the slums .
The Black Poker didn’t dare to make any troubles for Arthur, and helplessly watched him leave the slums with his sister .
Once Arthur left the slums with his sister, he headed to the west of the St . Tulan City .
After crossing one street after another, a huge and imposing college under construction with an area of over 300 hectares appeared in front of the siblings .
This huge college with an area of more than 300 hectares was the magic college Yang Feng spent a huge sum to build .
There huge magic college had 4 gates . Numerous luxury carriages gathered in front of the east gate, with many young men and women dressed in aristocratic clothes forming circles of different sizes .
Arthur looked at the east gate, then turned and took his sister to the north gate of the magic college .
In front of the north gate of the magic college gathered numerous commoner and peasant youngsters dressed in ordinary attires, forming long queues . These youngsters came to Yang Feng’s magic college with the dream of changing their destiny .
So long as they were wealthy and were willing to donate a huge sum of money, and given that their cultivation aptitude wasn’t too lacking, aristocratic children could directly enroll into the magic college established by Yang Feng . As for commoner and peasant youngsters, those who had extraordinary cultivation aptitudes would be exempt from tuition fees and would get a monthly allowance .
The north gate of the magic college was an opportunity for commoner and peasant youngsters to come into contact with the world of magic .
Every time the north gate of the magic college opened, there would be 200 to 300 commoner and peasant youngsters pour into it . Before long, the majority of the commoner and peasant youngsters would return with looks of disappointment . Every time, only 1 or 2 youngsters looked excited, eager to tell everyone that they qualified . More often than not, all youngsters in a batch would have gloomy expressions upon return .
The tremendous crowd ahead of them rapidly decreased . Simultaneously, more people kept coming . Slowly, there were many youngsters behind Arthur and his sister .
Hours later, it was finally the turn of Arthur and his sister . The siblings followed 200 youngsters into the north gate of the magic college and entered a vast room engraved with numerous profound and mysterious magic runes .
Inside the room sat a middle-aged Wizard with a rigid expression . He snapped his finger, and the room suddenly grew dark .
Seeing the room turn dark, the youngsters panicked and made noise .
Arthur put himself in front of Beth and drew his dagger, looking alert .
The middle-aged Wizard barked imposingly: “Keep quiet and don’t talk! Otherwise, get out immediately . ”
The youngsters quieted down upon hearing the middle-aged Wizard . This was a fate-changing opportunity, so they could not let it slip past their fingers .
The middle-aged Wizard chanted an incantation and pointed with his finger . A crystal ball in front of him glowed with magic radiance .
The magic runes inside the room lit up and strange fluctuations of magic shrouded the youngsters in the room .
Light with different degrees of brightness rose from the youngsters . The light coming from the majority of the youngsters was dim . The the light coming from Arthur and Beth resembled 2 suns – 1 small and 1 big, suppressing the light emitted by the other youngsters .
“Geniuses! 2 geniuses! That’s great, I found 2 geniuses!” Full of excitement, the voice of the middle-aged Wizard trembled when he saw the lights shining alike 2 suns – 1 small and 1 big .
“I have to report this to Sir!” The middle-aged Wizard took out a communications crystal and poured a tremendous amount of spirit force inside .
Yang Feng’s indifferent yet dignified voice came from the crystal: “What is it, Fitts?”
Fitts said respectfully: “Sir Vice-Dean, I found 2 geniuses, no, 2 exceptional geniuses . They should be commoners or peasants . ”
“Exceptional geniuses? Interesting . I’ll be right there . ” Not long after Yang Feng’s voice faded, white light flashed, and the whole room was illuminated brightly .
The gazes of the youngsters were attracted by the light source, only to see Yang Feng covered in sacred radiance step out from the light as if a god treading in the secular world .
When he came out, Yang Feng saw the 2 children, Arthur and Beth, emit light as bright as 2 suns – 1 small and 1 big .
Yang Feng’s eyes glimmered with joy and the corners of his mouth rose slightly: “I picked up a treasure . ”
From the magic light emitted by Arthur and Beth, you could tell that Arthur had a superior level-6 soul aptitude and Beth had an intermediate level-7 soul aptitude . They were both geniuses when it came to the cultivation on the Warlock path and the Wizard path .
Warlock cultivation and Wizard cultivation were very similar to begin with, just that Warlock secret methods emphasized both the cultivation of physique as well as spirit force, and they were a notch better than the meditation methods of the Feisuo Plane that solely focused on the cultivation of spirit force . So long as these 2 geniuses were carefully polished, they would shine brilliantly .
“I am Ian, the vice-dean of the magic college . What are your names?” Yang Feng walked towards Arthur and Beth . Along the way, the youngsters in front of him were slowly pushed aside by a gentle force, making way for him to reach Arthur and Beth .
Arthur looked up at Yang Feng and said excitedly in a loud voice: “My name is Arthur, and this is my sister, Beth!”
Yang Feng smiled gently and asked: “Arthur, Beth, I want to accept the both of you as my disciples . Are you willing?”
Arthur felt very excited . Astutely, he pulled his sister to prostrate on the ground and said deferentially: “We are more than willing . Sir Vice-Dean, please accept us as your disciples . ”
A random Wizard of the magic college could already berate the One-Eyed Dragon Band, who was the number one big shot of the slums, like a dog . Band didn’t dare to make a sound at the time . For such a bigwig as the vice-dean of the magic collage to personally accept them as disciples, Arthur was clear what it meant . Simultaneously, he didn’t dare to be the least bit arrogant for fear of missing this chance .
Yang Feng said with a smile: “Get up!”
A gentle force covered Arthur and Beth and made them stand up .
Gazes of envy and jealousy, which Arthur could clearly perceive, focused on them .
Even the middle-aged Wizard had envy flash past his eyes, aware that the fates of the siblings would be changed greatly .
Yang Feng pointed, a white light enveloped him and the siblings, and they disappeared from the room .
The middle-aged Wizard’s eyes fell on the youngsters in the room, and he said indifferently: “You are not qualified to get a scholarship, go back . ”
Aristocratic youngsters, even if they were lacking in terms of qualifications, were still eligible to enter the magic college Yang Feng established to study magic once they paid a huge sum of money . Commoner and peasant youngsters, on the other hand, had to be geniuses to enter the magic college to learn magic knowledge .
Yang Feng could not and did not want to change this aristocratic supremacy custom . After all, it took a lot of money to keep a magic college running . If it wasn’t for the huge amount of money aristocratic children brought him in, the magic college wouldn’t be able to function as it didn’t had financial support from the Morrince Empire .
The youngsters could only leave the room with forlorn looks .
In another luxuriously decorated room, Yang Feng and the siblings appeared in the room with a flash of light .
Dressed in a cyan martial attire, Becky came up to Yang Feng and greeted respectfully: “Sir!”
These days, Becky had been working at Yang Feng’s side . She slowly shed her temper of an entitled brat and became a very competent secretary .
Yang Feng said lightly: “Becky, these 2 are my disciples starting today . Take them and teach them the rules . ”
Becky gave Arthur and Beth an envious look, and then replied respectfully: “Yes! Sir!”
Yang Feng disappeared with a flash of light .
Becky looked at Yang Feng’s fading back with longing in her eyes, then turned around and said full of dignity: “My name is Becky . You can call me Big Sister Becky . Now follow me . I will teach you the rules here . ”
Arthur replied very astutely: “Yes! Big Sister Becky!”
Beth followed suit: “Yes! Big Sister Becky!”
