Chapter 8

"Don't worry!" Jia Lan comforted, "As long as you are willing to work hard, everyone can become a great person that people admire."

Learning magic does require some talent, but more importantly, "hard work" and "concentration". Just like the teacher said: "Attitude is the most important!"

The teacher's words gave him a lot of inspiration. Although he lost the opportunity to become a more advanced magician, with the encouragement of his teacher, he changed his career to become a researcher and scholar, and also became an assistant lecturer at the Affiliated College of Kolanburg Library, although he did not cast spells.

Imagination, creativity, and the accumulation of knowledge are the keys to the success of a magician. Talent and qualifications can only determine how high you can go, but not your depth.

Wait!

Jia Lan suddenly felt something was wrong. He looked away from the young man who was preparing for the "Kolanbang Public Magic University 200th Anniversary School Festival" in the college square, frowned, and then asked gently: "Alan, can I see your recommendation letter?"

"Oh... OK."

Although a little confused, Alan still took out the recommendation letter that she thought was extremely precious from her leather schoolbag.

Jia Lan took a quick look at the recommendation letter written on parchment. This kind of paper is very cheap and common. Judging from the fact that the "quasi-eighth-class knight" Master Mapdoler was reluctant to use even slightly better paper, the importance of this recommendation letter may not be as great as imagined. It is more of a symbolic recommendation and identity proof.

It seems that if you want to enter the magic university, the more important thing is the "entrance examination". In the "entrance examination", the theoretical knowledge test is just a formality to see how much knowledge the freshmen have mastered so as to teach them according to their aptitude.

And the final "element talent test" is the key to determining whether the freshmen can become students of the magic university!

The knowledge system of this era is different from that of Jia Lan. Because even the knowledgeable Jia Lan does not understand what the relationship is between becoming a magician and elements? What is the relationship between mastering the use of elements and talent?

Jia Lan shook his head in confusion. Is it too hasty for the magic university to judge whether students are qualified to become magicians based only on the "element sub-school" of the "transmutation department"?

In other words, does the magic university only teach the major of the "transmutation department"? Only recruit students who study the "elemental sub-school"? This is too strange!

Moreover, Jia Lan discovered that some of the words in the field of magic used by Alan when speaking were different from those he knew.

For example, she called "magician, robe" "magician, magic robe", and the name of this magic university was directly called "Magic University". The spellcasters that Jia Lan was familiar with were "arcane mages, arcane robes", abbreviated as "magicians, robes", and had nothing to do with "demons" or "devils".

In Jia Lan's era, the only spellcasters who could be related to "magic" were probably those warlocks who belonged to the "evil camp" and had "magic blood".

But the spellcasting ability of these magic warlocks depends entirely on their own "bloodline inheritance" to awaken. How can they have time to learn knowledge? Not to mention expecting those guys with chaotic natures to stay in the academy and study obediently.

However, Jia Lan was a little uncertain. Judging from the fact that the Magic University values "talent", it seems to have something to do with warlocks who rely on blood talent... Is the Magic University a warlock academy?

Jia Lan, who felt it was ridiculous, shook his head with a smile. This was too ridiculous!

Although both wizards and warlocks are called "casters", and people even call the spells they use "arcane", the spells they master are completely two completely different fields and two completely different systems.

Although there were people in Jia Lan's era who practiced both spells at the same time, to say that warlocks who rely on talent would waste time sitting down to study magic knowledge is like saying that sows can climb trees.

Seeing Jia Lan shaking his head with a smile, Alan asked nervously: "What's wrong? Is there anything wrong with my recommendation letter?" She was worried that the stingy Master Mapdoler had deceived her simple father and gave her a fake recommendation letter.

"No, it's okay."

Jia Lan smiled and looked at the words on the recommendation letter again. Fortunately, the words used in this era have not changed much, but there are some new words he doesn't understand yet.

For example, the address written on the recommendation letter:

Star Continent - Zilargo Continent - Kolan State - Talandor - Limestone Town - Wheat Stem Village.

Jia Lan knew the three words "Zilago, Kolan, and Talandor". "Zilago" is a country on the Khorvare continent, called the Kingdom of Zilargo, "Kolan" should refer to Kolan Castle, and "Talandor" is a small town about 300 kilometers away from Kolan Castle.

Jia Lan is not sure about "Limestone Town" and "Wheat Stem Village", but if he has been sleeping for hundreds of years, it is normal for the place names to change.

But what about "Star Continent - Zilargo Continent - Kolan State"?

When did the Khorvare continent change its name to Star Continent? When did the Kingdom of Zilargo become a continent? When did Kolan Castle become a state?

Even if the place names change with the changes in history, this change is too big.
