That afternoon, the magic airship Xu Yi was riding on landed in the open space of a manor outside Sosri City.
As soon as Xu Yicai walked out of the cabin door, he was greeted by dozens of magicians wearing various magician robes, who must be at least over forty years old.
The one at the forefront is the current president of the Magician Union of Mana Magic Kingdom and the dean of the Academy of Magic Science in Mana Magic Kingdom, the Great Magician Forris.
Behind him were also the magicians from the Academy of Magical Science in the Magical Kingdom of Mana.
"President Xu, I feel extremely honored that you can come to participate in this magic research meeting in person. Welcome!" Great Magician Forris greeted Xu Yi enthusiastically, along with other The magicians also bowed respectfully to Xu Yi.
Xu Yi smiled slightly and glanced at the great magician Ferris and the other magicians following him. He thought that although these people appeared to be so respectful and polite on the surface, it was really hard to say what they were thinking in their hearts. .
"President Forex, you are too polite. In fact, Magister Camilla originally wanted to attend this meeting, but he has been unwell recently and it is not convenient for him to travel far, so I can only come together in his place. "
"Not feeling well?" The great magician Ferris was slightly startled. "Magister Camilla..."
Xu Yi smiled and waved his hand: "It's nothing serious. It's just because the weather has turned cold and I have a cold."
"That's it, that's okay, that's okay..." The great magician Ferris breathed a sigh of relief, then smiled and led Xu Yi towards the manor.
Xu Yi asked casually as he walked: "By the way, President Forrest, although I accepted the invitation to attend this meeting, I forgot to ask because I was too busy. What is the main topic of this meeting? "
The great magician Ferris glanced at Xu Yi, his eyes full of meaning, and replied: "The main topic was decided yesterday. It is planned to discuss the restoration of the magician rating."
Xu Yi raised his eyes slightly, but did not show any surprise. However, his voice became colder and he continued to ask: "Oh? Who raised this issue?"
Archmage Fores coughed lightly: "It was proposed by Magister Gascoigne."
Xu Yi said oh. He nodded and did not continue to ask.
The Gascoigne Magister mentioned by the Great Magician Forex is actually Roddick Gascoigne, the former president of the Continental Magicians Union.
Ten years ago, after the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Luersun Kingdom defeated the two empires, the mainland magician union was forced by the situation. They chose to reach a settlement with the Mainland Magicians’ Survival and Employment Guarantee Joint Association, and the two parties agreed to jointly lead the mainland’s magicians.
Two years later, the great magician Roddick Gascoigne, who was the former president of the Mainland Magician Union, finally made a major breakthrough in magic research and became a magister.
According to the practice of the mainland magicians union, magicians at the level of magisters cannot hold any actual positions in the magicians union, so he retired from the position of president of the magicians union.
However, stepping down from this position does not mean that he really doesn't care about anything anymore.
Before becoming a magister, Roddick Gascoigne had served three consecutive terms as the president of the Mainland Magician Union. For a total of fifteen years, he had accumulated an extremely deep foundation and connections.
So feel free to step back from this position. In fact, he still firmly controls the Mainland Magician Union behind the scenes.
And although due to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the influence of the Mainland Magicians Guild on Sainz Continent and the control over magicians are not as good as before, after all, the Mainland Magicians Guild already has a presence on Sainz Continent. With a history of thousands of years, it can still have a strong influence on matters related to magicians in the mainland.
In the first few years, Magister Gascoigne did not make any special moves. It was as if he really lived a retired life and became his own magister safely.
However, in the past three years, his activities have gradually increased.
Most of the activities he carried out were to strengthen the influence of the Magicians Union on magicians, and to try to strengthen the Mainland Magicians Union.
This is for him. There is nothing wrong with that.
As long as he didn't ruin Xu Yi's plan, Xu Yi didn't bother to pay attention to his actions.
But judging from his recent actions, it was obvious that he had other plans, which Xu Yi couldn't tolerate.
Xu Yi continued to move towards the manor. It seemed that he had no intention of responding to the words of the great magician Fores, but the great magician Fores couldn't hold it in any longer. After holding on for a while, he asked Xu Yi: "President Xu, what do you think about this issue? "
Hehe, this is also where the wind comes from.
Xu Yi smiled. He shook his head slightly and said: "I have no objection. As long as the vast majority of magicians on the mainland agree, then of course I will not object."
The great magician Forrest paused slightly. He thought that Xu Yi would immediately express his opposition to this issue directly, and even angrily accuse Magister Gascoigne. However, Xu Yi now behaved very calmly. He didn't seem to care much about this issue at all, which was beyond his expectation.
The other magicians following the two heard the conversation between the two, and their expressions showed varying degrees of surprise.
The purpose of Magister Gascoigne raising this issue is obvious.
The rating of mainland magicians was originally a system implemented by the mainland magicians union for thousands of years, and it was also a powerful tool for them to control mainland magicians.
However, with the rise of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and Xu Yi's actions, magicians in the mainland no longer attach so much importance to level assessment, but instead pay more attention to the assessment of magician-related professional skills.
This aspect is not under the control of the Mainland Magician Union, but is mostly the responsibility of the Vocational Skills Association jointly formed by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and the Mainland Magician Survival and Employment Guarantee Association.
Therefore, without the rating that most affects the mainland magicians, the influence of the mainland magicians union on the continent of Sainz has become weaker and weaker over the years, so that many magicians now have almost no need Pay no attention to the Wizards Guild, even if it doesn't exist.
Naturally, Magister Gascoigne was extremely unwilling to accept this. This time he proposed to restore the rating of magicians at this meeting, obviously hoping to get the consent of the magicians participating in the meeting and regain control of the mainland magicians.
However, Xu Yi, a leader who has vigorously promoted the reform of the mainland's magician system, causing almost all magicians on the mainland to change their stance and join the magic industry, also came to participate in this meeting, so he must have a certain understanding of this matter. It is appropriate to vigorously oppose the issue.
Even if Xu Yi didn't show any opposition now, no one believed that he would turn a blind eye to it.
A group of people quickly entered this huge manor specially prepared for hosting this meeting. After crossing a wide lawn, they came face to face with a group of magicians wearing magician robes.
The first person was none other than Magister Gascoigne, whom Xu Yi and the Great Magician Ferris mentioned just now.
Seeing Xu Yi from a distance, Magister Gascoigne immediately laughed and walked over quickly. He held Xu Yi's hand and shook it. He said with great enthusiasm: "President Xu can do this despite his busy schedule." It’s rare to find time to attend this meeting.”
Xu Yi smiled and withdrew his hand.
"What Mr. Gascoigne said, what I said is that he is one of the mainland magisters and a member of the mainland magicians. It is only natural to attend such an important magic research conference. Besides, our new The Flying Chamber of Commerce’s consistent policy is to conduct sufficient scientific research on magic, so how could I give up such a good opportunity to exchange research experience with everyone?”
Magister Gascoigne laughed again: "Yes, that's right, President Xu has always been extremely enthusiastic about magic research, otherwise he would not have become the most powerful magister at the age of forty."
Xu Yi shook his head: "No, the magic research I am talking about is not the study of how to become a magician, but the research on magic science."
Magister Gascoigne's expression changed slightly, he paused, and suddenly said seriously: "President Xu, do you think there is a conflict between becoming a magister and studying magic science?"
"Of course not." Xu Yi shook his head. "The so-called magic science originally includes all aspects of magic research, and it naturally also includes the research required to become a magister. But... in my opinion, the magic research required to become a magister does not There is too much meaning, becoming a magister is just a false name, and you don’t need to take it too seriously.”
As soon as these words came out, not only Magister Gascoigne, but also the expressions of everyone around him changed.
Among the people gathered here now, except for Xu Yi and Gascoigne, who are two magisters, the weakest of the rest is also a powerful magician at the level of a great magician. Becoming a magister can almost be regarded as their lifelong dream. .
However, Xu Yi now said that the magic research required to become a magister was meaningless. This was tantamount to saying that what they had done in the previous decades was meaningless.
If someone else had said this, they would have retorted loudly or even scolded him.
But now it was Xu Yi who said this, and they could only respond in silence.
Because Xu Yi is a magister himself, many people even think that he may have become the most powerful magister on the continent. Moreover, he also strongly advocates scientific research on magic and is a representative of the new magic research system created in recent years, so he I am fully qualified to say this.
Magister Gascoigne narrowed his eyes slightly, and after a while, he asked in a deep voice: "So, President Xu, do you think it is meaningless to assess the level of magicians?"
Facing the focused gazes of everyone, Xu Yi smiled slightly, but then shook his head.
"No, I think this is still very meaningful." (~^~)
