In the academy arena, Rand, who ranked first in the first grade, was facing off against another student. He was a brown-haired boy, about the same age as Rhine, named Lin Lei. It was said that he had not participated in the grade arena competition either.

"Linley Baruch, speaking of which, he is quite close to you, Laing." Isaac's talent is not very high, but he is well-connected in the academy and knows some of the geniuses in his grade.

"Oh? What should I say?"

Lai Yin smiled and asked, he and Lin Lei had never met before, so how could they have any fate?

"Hey, you don't know, his entrance test is that his talent is the same as yours, he is super in both departments, and his mental power is also superior." Isaac smiled, "Besides, this guy doesn't participate in the academy grade either.

In the arena competition, tell me, are you quite destined?"

Lai Yin was startled for a moment, then looked at Lin Lei and said with a smile: "That is indeed quite fate."

"Then who do you think will win between the two of them?"

Myen also asked from the side.

"Me?" Rhine looked at the two people on the stage and then said: "This Linley Baruch will win."

"Really? Let's have a bet, too?" Delvin said with a smile. Of course, this was just their internal entertainment and nothing else would be involved.

"Today I am having a magic contest with this boy named Lin Lei. The loser will be given 10,000 gold coins. The winner will also be asked to walk around when he sees him in the future. Please notarize it for us." Rand said loudly, he enjoyed it very much.

The feeling of being in the spotlight without any stage fright.

There was a sudden burst of cheers below. Rand had just experienced the grade competition. Naturally, Rand had a group of supporters. On the contrary, there were very few people who supported Lin Lei. After all, he was not interested in the grade competition. Only a few people who knew his strength knew about his strength.

Man, and his Grandpa Delin.

"Have you said enough?" Lin Lei said calmly.

Rand smiled confidently: "Okay, let's begin."

Rand and Linley recited magic spells silently almost at the same time. Both of them were second-level magicians. The first- and second-level magic spells were relatively short, just one or two sentences.

"call!"

Seven consecutive cyan wind blades formed out of thin air and slashed directly towards Rand. Rand also used his own magic at the same time, and saw five red fireballs also hitting Lin Lei.

"Second level magician?"

The senior students below figured it out right away.

After that, Linley's performance was even more astonishing for them. He evaded Rand's magic very elegantly, and then directly defeated Rand with a burst of earth magic.

The whole process took less than a minute, and the first grader in the first grade was defeated.

"This kid has such precise control and his body movements are so flexible." Delvin and the others couldn't help but be shocked. Their eyesight was not bad and they could see some clues.

"He has practiced the warrior system, so he is naturally better than Rand." Rhine said. Compared to Isaac and others, his eyesight is even more extraordinary, and he can see many unusual things.

"This Linley Baruch is not simple. Maybe in two years, he will become as famous a genius as Dixie." Rhine smiled and gave a high evaluation.

"Dixie?" Delvin was surprised. They naturally knew Dixie. He was the number one genius in the academy. He was only nine years old now, but he was already a third-level magician. Moreover, in this third-grade competition, he also

Strongly won the first place.

This is different from someone like Rand, who is so famous. Dixie is so famous that many people want to compete with him. Although the level of the third-grade arena competition is not as good as that of fifth- and sixth-grade students, it is definitely the most valuable.

Almost all third-year students participated.

And under such circumstances, Dixie, who was only nine years old, still won the championship strongly, solidifying his reputation as the number one genius in his academy.

However, now, Rhine said that Linley has the potential to grow into a genius like Dixie, which is not a low opinion.

But soon, Delvin realized that Rhine was a second grader like them, but how could he confidently evaluate Dixie, a third grader?

Unless, his strength is already equal to Dixie, or even surpasses Dixie!

"Rhine, tell us the truth, have you...become a third-level magician?" Delvin asked in a low voice. They knew Rhine's character and didn't like to be too public.

Rhine thought for a while. He had already joined the institute, and the institute would definitely report it later. It would be difficult to calm down.

Of course, he didn't care about this. After all, he was not interested in the fights between these children. He might as well continue to study magic with Dumbledore.

Therefore, he also nodded, which actually confused the three Isaacs. Even they did not expect that Rhine was so strong.

"Okay, it turns out that you are the one who hides the most in the dormitory. No, Delvin will treat us tonight, but tomorrow is the holiday and we will go to the Holy City to play. You have to treat us!" Myne said.

The grade competition lasted for nearly a month, and at the end of each month, Ernst College would have two days off. They had originally made an appointment to go to King Finlay City.

"OK."

Rhine smiled. Originally, he only had to be a tour guide, after all, his home was in the Holy City, but now he had to treat guests.

Of course, he has also had some personal money in the past three years, so he will not refuse such a small thing.

"Okay, I've been very comfortable these two days. There are two big families to eat, hahaha!" Isaac and Myne laughed. The four of them laughed and returned to the hotel to celebrate.

…

On the first of the following month, the students returned to Ernst College again, but they gathered at short notice, and all grades were included.

This situation is rare, because Ernst College students have classes every day and gather at short notice unless something urgent happens.

Soon, the dean of the college and several vice-presidents also arrived, but surprisingly, there was also a red archbishop from the Holy See of Light, and behind them was Dumbledore.

"Dear students, this is Archbishop Gilmer from the Holy See of Light. He came to our college this time to announce something important." said a vice-president of the college. Archbishop Gilmer himself is a ninth-level magician.

, and his status is very special, he is one of the red-clothed archbishops of the Holy See of Light, so even if it is just an introduction, it will be done by a vice-president.

Cardinal Gilmer is a middle-aged man with curly brown hair, a high nose, and a smile on his lips, making him seem very approachable.

After the introduction by the deputy dean, he walked to the stage, looked at the thousands of Ernst College students below, and smiled gently: "Hello fellow students, today I come to Ernst College on behalf of the Holy See of Light.

I came here for a teacher from the college..."

Archbishop Gilmer's words made all the colleges and even other magic teachers look at Dumbledore, who was also sitting on the rostrum.

"Yes, as everyone thought, I am here for Mr. Albus Dumbledore this time. Mr. Dumbledore is an excellent magician and an admirable scholar.

Even His Majesty the Pope appreciates his attainments in magic theory..."

Gilmer spoke very gently, with a convincing power. After hearing this, the students and even the teachers below all looked at Dumbledore sitting on the podium in shock.

It was a great honor to be praised by His Majesty the Pope of the Holy See of Light, but he seemed very calm.

"At the same time, due to the many contributions made by Mr. Dumbledore, we, the Holy See of Light, decided to jointly establish the Magic Research Institute, with Mr. Albus Dumbledore as the director, and enjoy the same rights as the Dean of Ernst College.

treatment.”

There was a commotion below. Although I had long guessed that Dumbledore would become a big shot at the level of deputy dean sooner or later, I never expected that he would find a new way and go out on his own to become the director of this magic research institute.

And the level has reached dean level!

"It's really amazing!" Lin Lei couldn't help but admired in the crowd. He had been in the academy for nearly a year, and he naturally knew the legend of Dumbledore.

"Haha, this is nothing. When you become stronger in the future, you will be able to enjoy the same or even higher treatment than him." A voice came from Lin Lei's Coiling Dragon Ring, and only he could hear it.

This is Grandpa Delin, who has been teaching him for a long time. He used to be a magician at the pinnacle of the Holy Realm.

"Yeah." Lin Lei nodded, with longing in his heart.

"Thank you Archbishop Gilmer for reading the letter of appointment for Mr. Dumbledore. Next, please ask Mr. Dumbledore to announce the list of the first batch of students entering the institute." After Gilmer's speech, the vice-president said again.

As the protagonist this time, Dumbledore looked very indifferent. His silver-white beard hung down to his waist. He looked like a kind old man without any terrifying majesty.

He stood in front of the stage with a smile on his face, and his eyes under his glasses seemed to be able to see through people's hearts.

Then, he spoke slowly, and through the magic circle, the voice dispersed in all directions: "In our Magic Research Institute, a total of thirteen students have been selected as junior researchers this time."

"The list is as follows:"

"Sixth Grade: Jeff Techel, Sierra Severen..."

"Fifth grade: Sean Varan, Carlo Valenti..."

"Grade 2: Rein Harut."

"The above thirteen students can already compare with ordinary seventh-level magicians in terms of theoretical knowledge of magic. They have excellent theoretical research talents. I am also honored to lead them to conduct research in the field of magic..."

Before Dumbledore finished speaking, the students below were already excited.

The election of fifth- and sixth-grade students seemed normal to them. Those students had studied in the academy for at least ten or twenty years, and it was not an exaggeration to say that their theoretical knowledge could reach the level of a seventh-level magician.

But what happened to sophomore Rein Harut?!

In the second grade, it will not take more than five years to enter the school with a full score. In five years, the theoretical knowledge reaches the level of a seventh-level magician. What kind of weirdo is this?!

Even if his magician level is not high, his attainments in theoretical knowledge are enough to make him a figure that every major family is willing to pursue!

Moreover, judging from the second grade, he is definitely not very old. There will definitely be room for growth after joining the institute, and his worth will only be higher in the future!

"Who is Rein Harut?"

Suddenly, the students began to inquire about each other.

Some people who knew Rhine were also confused at this time. Several of Delwin's roommates were even more dizzy. Looking at Rhine in front of them, they always felt that the whole world was joking with them.

Lin Lei, a first-year student, was equally shocked after hearing the news. Even if he was taught by a saint-level magician, his current theoretical knowledge is far less than level seven.

But now, a student who is only one grade above him has reached such a height.

"This student is indeed very powerful."
