At noon.

The light in the conference room with soft, pale walls was transparent, reflecting the green plants placed on the wide windowsill, adding a lot of vitality and energy to this space.

But at this moment.

In this Sage Academy conference room that suddenly became fiercely debated due to controversial topics, it presented a chaotic state.

"Compared to that candidate from the Knight Academy with zero wisdom and temperament, the wisdom and temperament of ours seem to be too high."

"It's a bit too high."

Most teachers felt quite shocked and skeptical after witnessing Lanqi's operation, discussing this outlier while questioning their life.

Some teachers also frowned from time to time, thinking, and then looked up at the replay on the magic screen.

What kind of mental state did this kid take the exam with?

They didn't understand.

Now the teachers not only need to complete the teaching and research tasks, review this exam, but also need to urgently make a manual evaluation of all candidates' scores.

Obviously, Lanqi posed a difficult problem for them—

How to score him.

"You have to say that this guy's legal awareness is really strong, normal people wouldn't go to check the law book first in that situation."

"No, although our academy recruits law-based professionals, it's the 'law' of magic, not the 'law' of legal!"

After a round of arguments, another teacher slapped the table and shouted.

"He might be more suitable to be recommended to the Hutton National University of Finance, Economics and Law."

"Whew——!"

Just thinking about if someone like Lanqi becomes a judge in the future.

The teachers present were filled with the thought "I never want to see him in court in this life".

Various documents, charts, and notes were scattered on the tables in the conference room.

The clock on the wall kept ticking.

Vice Dean Roen remained silent, noting down key points of several different views on the draft paper in front of him, trying to organize the evaluation of this candidate.

Dean Loren is now being scolded at the Magic Engineering Department.

So this meeting could only be hosted by Vice Dean Roen on his behalf.

No one from the Sage Academy was willing to go to the Magic Engineering Department to face that eccentric Professor Bolao.

Moreover.

If Professor Bolao hears that the artificial Shadow World startup terminal was broken...

He would be very angry!

However, there's no choice, the third round of the exam still needs to use the terminal.

There must be a brave person to ask Professor Bolao to bring the technical staff from the Magic Engineering Department to help repair it as soon as possible in these two days.

"Sigh, if I were Loren, I would probably just take this kid called Lanqi directly to the Magic Engineering Department."

Their dean is still too honest and kind.

After sighing in his heart, Vice Dean Roen finally tapped the table twice lightly.

Indicating that the teachers should return to the main topic of discussion.

"From the core of the Shadow World, he seems to have made another interpretation of 'benevolence and righteousness'."

Roen sighed and said, reluctantly acknowledging the meaning represented by Lanqi's pass,

"Using violence to control violence, using evil to control evil, may also be an effective means of doing good."

It's not just battle-oriented challengers who research and discuss the Shadow World.

Enjoying this book? Seek out the original to ensure the author gets credit.

There are also many theologians, historians, and philosophers who are often active.

Scholars' excavation and analysis of Shadow World stories can also help challengers clarify intelligence and expand ideas for conquering the Shadow World.

Gradually, the Sage Academy has also added many academic researches in its development.

For example, "Introduction to Shadow World", which new students of the Sage Academy must study upon enrollment, is also the most recognized Shadow World theory in today's real world.

It once pointed out that the Shadow World is a miracle spell barrier created by the gods before they disappeared, which would record key historical nodes of many worlds and other worlds, perhaps small, perhaps great, perhaps regrettable, perhaps worth pondering.

Once a real world has evolved to have enough strength to explore the Shadow World in constant destruction and rebirth, this real world will connect to the Shadow World.

Then the creatures of this world can enter the Shadow World and re-enact a projection of history under the guidance of the Shadow World.

These historical projections from different world lines and timelines can be called excellent learning materials or knowledge treasures for any creature.

The gods wanted creatures to gain experience and reflection from the historical projections of various worlds, cross-learn, and make the real world they live in more stable and beautiful.

So there was this dual world of the real world and the Shadow World, intertwined like entity and shadow.

After Vice Dean Roen started.

The conference room once again returned to the atmosphere of a normal review meeting.

"Through the discussion of Lanqi's solution in this artificial Shadow World simulated by the entrance examination, perhaps a journal article can be published."

"I find that he seems to have more talent as a researcher."

At the round table of the Healing Mage group, Teacher Teresa looked at Lanqi's information and said softly.

When applying for admission, she felt that although this young man had no talent as a mage, his calm, composed, and gentle demeanor seemed to be that of a born scholar.

Often, if such people are willing to study hard, they will be favored by many societies.

After all, helping with review and doing research work in logistics departments is equally important.

"Indeed, he has temperament when needed, wisdom when needed, and both temperament and wisdom for morality."

Many teachers affirmed.

"Anyway—— Is it okay to rank him ahead of Lady Huberrian Alansar, that is, in the first place?"

Vice Dean Roen tapped the table lightly with his index finger, hesitated slightly, and then spoke to summarize.

Since the score couldn't be defined, they could only decide on the ranking first.

This will directly affect the grouping of the exam the day after tomorrow.

Hearing this, many of the teachers present either nodded or remained silent.

Their attitudes were all somewhat subtle, even with a sense of avoiding suspicion.

"Although his clearance time was very quick, he actually didn't hit almost any of the originally set scoring points. According to the algorithm originally set by the Magic Engineering Department, his score might not be particularly high..."

From the round table of the Healing Mage group came a stammering voice.

The vice dean looked over, it was Teacher Teresa who had received Lanqi during the enrollment application that spoke up.

"Teacher Teresa, that's not fair of you, you know?"

However.

On another table, a young teacher, with his right hand on the back of his chair, turned back to look at Teresa, interrupting her words,

"He should rightfully be first, that can't be changed."

"..."

Teresa pursed her lips, unable to say anything more.

She actually knew that what she said wasn't reasonable.

But she really wanted to help Lanqi.

Because, being first place, in this year's Sage Academy exam, is definitely not a good position.

Actually, the most troublesome new student for the academy this year is not Frey, nor Lanqi.

But this Lady Huberrian.

The vast majority of teachers are unwilling to easily get involved with her.

The reason why the duchess didn't hold back in the second round of the exam was also because she was worried that if her ranking was too low, she would encounter all arranged actor teammates in the third round.

Only with the highest possible ranking would it be possible to be assigned powerful teammates that even the opposing factions within the academy couldn't manipulate against her.

As a result, according to the current situation, if Lanqi happens to be placed in the first position.

That will probably fulfill many people's wishes, naturally letting Lanqi become a tool to drag down the duchess in actual combat.

After all, Lanqi really doesn't show any outstanding combat ability.

"Felat, I can't say much. But no matter what, please don't go beyond the rules, otherwise Loren won't sit idly by."

Roen looked deeply at the young teacher who had just interrupted Teresa, and then said.

"Of course."

The young teacher named Felat stood up and bowed elegantly to Vice Dean Roen,

"It's just that within the set rules, if nothing unexpected happens, the students ranked at the top should be examined by me. Then I will also try my best to screen out candidates without qualifications, this is for their future safety."

Felat's mouth always had a confident smile.

"..."

Vice Dean Roen silently turned the page in his hand, wanting to end this topic.

Lanqi Wilford, as a white mage function, has very marginal talent.

He's actually not suitable for the Sage Academy.

A truly first-level or above Shadow World requires not only thinking, but also a lot of practical combat ability.

No matter which group he is assigned to, he will probably be eliminated in the third round.

So in a sense, even if it's the will of heaven, letting him team up with the duchess.

Then no one can blame who for dragging down whom.

Anyway, even if these two are separated, they both have almost no hope of enrollment.
