Except for Adam, several others wanted to visit this bustling city. Compared with the southern Harbor City, Hanfeng City in the north, it is undoubtedly a small country town, and young people yearn for a world of flowers.

The plan could not keep up with the rapid change. Before they could leave, the gate of the Duke's Mansion opened and a group of people walked out of it.

The Duke looked like a middle-aged man. He came to Master Black and presented a standard aristocratic etiquette, greeted him, "Dear Master Black, welcome you." Then he made a hug at the six apprentices and said, "You are welcome, the elementary apprentices."

Everyone returned the gifts, and the Duke laughed and led them to the Duke's mansion, saying, "You are here just in time. The dinner has just begun. The rest of the wizards and their apprentices have arrived."

Master Black smiled and said, "Oh? That's not bad. It seems that I can set off early. I've left the mage continent for too long, and I'm a little tired."

The Duke expressed his regret: "Is it in such a hurry? I still have many questions to ask for."

"There's no way, this time is different from the past. You know, the college is in a hurry..."

While speaking, everyone came to the banquet hall. Many people had already sat by a huge round table. Two men and one woman sat at the beginning and end. When they saw Master Black, they stood up and greeted him: "Master Black, you are a little late."

Master Black greeted one by one: "Master Robert, Mage Jerome, and the beautiful Mage Erin, you must know that I am responsible for the far north, so naturally I am not as quick as you."

Adam and the others bowed to the three strange mages and saluted each other. Apart from them, there were thirty-four apprentices, all of whom were about the same age, but they seemed not very friendly to Adam and his party.

The duke who appeared again was wearing a bloated and gorgeous dress, standing at the door and directing the servants to serve plates of exquisite food that was unbearable. Buckets of wine that emitted a strong fragrance flowed into the cup without any money, and then the beautiful maid personally sobered up and brought it to everyone.

Ophelia looked ugly and looked very embarrassed. Compared with the dinner at the Duke's Mansion, Earl Johnson's hospitality was really unavailable.

Corriester and the three male apprentices were shocked. One of them was a civilian and the three were from small nobles. In addition, they lived in a barren place in the north and had never seen such a luxurious banquet.

The Duke announced the beginning of the banquet in a loud voice, and he himself walked to the mages, and the apprentices were naturally served by the servants.

"Gudong."

Sam Aiden couldn't help but swallow his saliva in his throat.

Adam did not focus on food. In the north, both nobles and civilians used oil lamps to lighting at night. However, here Adam found that the lighting devices were used to illuminate lights, but he did not find any traces of electricity use.

"Is this an alchemy product? The power of magic?" Adam was very curious and stared at the lamp.

When everyone was about to enjoy the food, a disgusting word came, which ruined their mood: "Ha, why, have you never seen a dinner party of this type? No wonder, I heard that you are from the North? Do people there live with wild beasts? Tsk tsk, it's so pitiful. You have to eat more later, otherwise you will have no chance in the future."

The apprentices in Northland turned their heads angrily and looked at the person who was talking, and found that this was a young man with greasy hair and meticulously combed his hair behind his head. He slowly fiddled with the food on the plate with a knife and fork. He didn't even raise his head when he spoke, and looked extremely rude. He didn't look at the apprentices in Northland until he felt his eyes, and then mocked: "What's wrong with everyone? Am I wrong? If so, I'm willing to apologize to you on behalf of the nobles of the civilized world."

Sam Aidenten stood up from his seat, took out a glove from his arms in a mysterious tone, and said in an angry tone: "Tell me your name and apologize immediately, otherwise you will bear the anger from the Aiden family."

The greasy and powdery face still looked down on him: "Has I told you? The Aiden family? Haha, I have never heard of it. Did you rely on your mouth to obtain aristocratic status?"

The duke and the mages didn't care about the conflict under their noses, but just said lightly: "Don't break things." Then they didn't care about it again.

Most of the other apprentices were watching operas, especially waiting for the Northerners to make a fool of themselves.

The faint blood waving of Sam Aiden rose, and he waved his gloves and roared: "Tell me your name, coward, don't you dare?"

Adam was a little confused. Maybe he had contacted too few nobles, but even Marshall and Dennis never seemed to have done such a stupid move. Although Sam Aiden and others were cold after hearing about their civilian status, they were not rude after all. Why was the person in front of him so stupid?

This time even Ophelia couldn't help but speak out: "Insulting a nobleman but not daring to name him to accept the duel. I never knew that there were people as cowardly as you among the nobles."

Sam Aiden received support from Ophelia and became more confident. He threw his gloves on his greasy face: "Dull fight, coward, only one of us can survive."

After the gloves faded from their faces, the greasy and pink face could no longer maintain the sarcastic and provocative face. He looked at his companions around him for help, but found that no one paid attention to him.

At this time, a young man with a similar temperament as Ophelia stood up and said, "Enough, Tom. I never knew when a civilian was qualified to represent the nobles, now, apologize, and then sit down."

Grey-headed flour, oh no, Tom looked at the young man in disbelief and said, "No, Mr. William, I just want to teach this group of country people a lesson. You can't do this, I..."

"William Alfreid, this is the name of a young man, the Duke's parent-child, the most dazzling genius in the south, excellent mental power, and a soul tendency with fire elements." Mage Erin said after taking a sip of the wine, "Congratulations, Duke Alfreid, your son has a better talent than you, and it is very likely that a formal wizard will appear in the Alfreid family."

The Duke couldn't stop smiling, obviously very satisfied with his son, but he still said, "You have over the award, and William still needs to learn a lot."

Master Erin didn't care and asked several companions: "Where are you? Have you found any good seedlings?"

Master Robert, who is in charge of the West, complained: "This time is too hurrying and it is impossible to organize a larger test. The apprenticeship qualifications I brought are very ordinary, and only one showed a faint curse affinity."

The other mages expressed regret to him that since the success of the mage revolution, most of the cursed spells have failed, and cursed affinity is really a narrow path to development.

Master Jerome, who is in charge of the east, said: "The east is pretty good, there are a few people with excellent mental qualifications. A civilian apprentice named Quentin has the talent of affinity in vitality."

"What about you, Black, the northern land is barren, I think you won't get much, right?"

The mages were talking to each other, and the conflict between the apprentices was not over here.

Ophelia easily saw William Alfreid's thoughts. First, she let her companions provoke her. When she saw that her companions could not hold on to the scene, she came out to smooth things out. How could such a cheap thing be? Soldiers were against soldiers and generals. Ophelia stood up and said, "When can civilians insult the nobles be solved with just one apology? Is this the rule in the south? Since Sam has initiated the duel, the civilians will either accept it or compensate Sam for the price of his life or become his slave."

Tom was completely scared and asked for help tremblingly: "Mr. William, please, I can't..."

William ignored him. People always pay the price for their stupidity. If it were not for such an occasion, if he was not from the south, William would be happy to see him unlucky.

"I am lucky to know your name, this beautiful lady?" William asked Ophelia with a gentle bow.

"Ophelia Johnson."

"I've heard of your name, Valkyrie of the North, and I'm honored to see you." He said that, he took a ring from his hand and put it in front of Ophelia. "This is a magical item that stores level zero magic fireball techniques, which I think is enough to make up for Tom's fault."

hiss.

A gasp sounded, and even Ophelia and Sam did not expect William to take out such a thing as compensation.

The apprentices who had just seen the magical mage had zero resistance to being able to possess a magic item immediately. Sam "forgived" the civilian's rudeness in an instant and nodded at Ophelia's inquiring eyes.

Seeing this, William smiled and said, "Then, the deal is completed."

Sam picked up the ring excitedly, and after struggling countless times in a few seconds, he reluctantly handed the ring to Ophelia: "Miss Ophelia, I think this ring should belong to you."

Although Ophelia was also very eager, she did not want to take the ring as her own and shook her head and stopped talking.

The conflict ended, and Mage Black said at this time: "It seems that I am not lucky. Although I only recruited six apprentices, three of them have soul tendencies. Ophelia has amazing talent in body refining, and another girl has the same talent as me. The last one is amazing. As for talent, I can't see through it."

The mages congratulated him. After returning to the academy, the dean would reward him based on the number of geniuses he received, but it was better than nothing.

But Duke Alfreid put these words in his heart.
