541 North 1

With the end of the potion competition, both the magic academy in Bracada and the towns managed by the lord have been affected a lot.

Although the time until the end of the potion competition is still short, the final rankings of each region have already spread throughout Bracada along with the rankings of the mages participating in the potion competition.

Even mages who have no interest in potions have to pay attention to it. The final ranking of each region is closely related to the mage's own interests. Any mage wants to get some useful information from it.

In addition to the rankings in each region, the specific rankings of the contestants in the potion competition, if they are not interested in potions, mages will not pay special attention to them.

As the information about the potion contest spread, these mages learned that in this potion contest, the area with the highest ranking was not the area where the champion of the potion contest came from, but the area where the runner-up was located.

Regarding the emergence of this result, all mages who knew this were puzzled in their hearts. Although the regional rankings refer to the comprehensive rankings of the three contestants who entered the finals, according to the past practice, the gap between the champion and the runner-up, Perhaps the rankings can be better differentiated.

Due to the region's ranking, the Crimson Magic Academy, which was the gathering place of this academy event and was also responsible for guiding the previous rounds of the potion competition, naturally gained a lot of prestige.

It is foreseeable that the prestige of the Scarlet Magic Academy will gradually decline until the holding of the academy event in the second year, but in this year, the Scarlet Magic Academy has enough resources to vigorously develop itself.

As the region that ranked first in the potion competition this time, the Scarlet Magic Academy will undoubtedly attract a large number of mages who are interested in potion science to join, and even mages who have participated in the potion competition will choose to join in order to study potion science in depth Scarlet Magic Academy.

The area ranked second is the position represented by Rhodes. Among them, the Ice Blue Magic Academy, which led this academy event and made this area the second place, is also known by more mages.

It's just that, compared to the Scarlet Magic Academy, the number of mages who know the existence of the Ice Blue Magic Academy is after all less.

For most mages, in addition to paying attention to the ranking of their own area, they may only pay attention to the area ranked first, and they will not pay attention to the area after the first. Only some mages who are interested in the championship of this potion competition will notice the existence of the Ice Blue Magic Academy.

Even so, the situation in the Ice Blue Magic Academy has undoubtedly changed greatly compared to before the academy event. Whether it is the number of mages in the academy or the elemental creatures around,

It is far beyond the scene before the opening of the academy event.

Perhaps the most affected by the regional rankings are all the magic schools in this area. After the potion competition, a large number of mages from the other magic schools in this area chose to come to the ice blue magic school to celebrate each other.

The mages who come and go gather in this town dominated by the Ice Blue Magic Academy. Even those elemental creatures who don't care about the regional ranking can feel a kind of heartfelt joy from the faces of these mages.

At this moment, except for a few well-informed mages with obvious worries on their faces in the Ice Blue Magic Academy, the rest of the ordinary mages are still celebrating for the regional ranking.

However, in such an environment, there are also mages who are dissatisfied with what happened to them, and even extremely angry.

"Didn't it mean that you can rely on the certificate obtained in the potion competition to join the magic academy? I also entered the finals of the potion competition, why can't I join?"

At this time, a mage was expressing his dissatisfaction. If Rhodes was here, he would be able to recognize at a glance that this mage who was complaining about his dissatisfaction was the North he met in the potion competition.

During the preliminary round, North showed his strength in potion science and greatly increased his influence. It was not until Rhodes refined the perfect potion that North was suppressed.

During the finals, unlike Rhodes, who was able to leave directly from the airship by relying on the ghost dragon, North waited until the potion competition was completely over, and then returned to the ice with the time and space gate displayed by Sock. Blue School of Magic.

Although he failed to achieve a higher ranking in the finals, in North's view, his harvest in the potion competition was already relatively rich, enough to solve the difficulties he has been facing.

For North, although he was able to study undead spells and potions safely under the protection of the lord, in North's heart, he was actually tired of this kind of hiding.

In the process of studying Potions, North has long understood that if there is no guidance from a master of Potions, or if there are no classics, but only by himself, the scope of research on Potions is extremely limited.

Just like the feeling that the potion contest brought to North, when North felt this clearly, North realized that perhaps what he longed for was to return to the magic academy.

After witnessing the scene where Rhodes won the championship with his own eyes, North also had a rough prediction in his mind about the regional ranking here and the future development of the Ice Blue Academy of Magic.

North believed that if he could return to the Ice Blue Academy of Magic and study together with mages who were also attracted by potions, then his potions strength would undoubtedly be raised to a higher level.

Originally, North didn't have any worries about whether he could join the Ice Blue Magic Academy. Before the start of the final round of rematch, what Eli said made North understand this clearly.

North knew that as long as he showed the certificate obtained after completing the potion refining, he would be able to join the Ice Blue Magic Academy, not to mention that he had also entered the finals, although he did not get a relatively high score like Rhodes. High ranking, but also surpassed most of the mages here.

From North's point of view, once he has revealed his identity and his intention to join the Iceblue Magic Academy, he can easily join the academy. In addition, because he entered the finals, he even directly became a member of the Iceblue Magic Academy. It is not impossible to have a Potions Master, just as Thok once said.

However, the situation did not develop as North imagined. When he expressed his intention, all he had to do was to refuse. It seemed that the Ice Blue Magic Academy did not welcome North's arrival.
