This wizard only wants to take students.

Chapter 179 Before departure
Gray Bone Academy, in the first-year dormitory.

Monica was lying on the desk in a somewhat decadent manner, with empty eyes, and she seemed to have suddenly become a lifeless puppet.

And on her desk, there is a "lucky card" representing the one who was drawn.

"Relax, I don't think the academy needs to send us weak wizard apprentices to die in this way. This should just be a test." Sally on the side seemed very calm. She was comforting her friend while flipping through a book.

"But when I think about participating in a battle between wizards, I feel an uncontrollable nervousness." Monica said softly, her voice trembling a little.

"Our new blood is already pretty good, you know? More than half of the new blood of the Gray Bone Academy died within three years of entering the Gray Bone Academy for various reasons. Compared with them, our level of training may not be worth mentioning to them."

Sally did not react too much to this. After all, she had known a lot about the dark side of the wizarding world from her grandfather before, so she seemed very calm about all this happening. She even took the initiative to sign up for this clearing mission, preparing to hone herself with the help of this mission.

But her calm tone and some information she inadvertently revealed made Monica stunned.

"The death rate in the past... was it that high?" Monica murmured in a low voice.

Unlike Sally, she did not come from a family founded by a wizard apprentice, and therefore did not know much about the wizarding world. During her time studying at Greybone Academy, it seemed that only "homework" could make her feel the dangers of the wizarding world.

"Well, human experiments, accidents, hunting each other..." Sally closed the book, and every word she said made Sally's face paler.

"Maybe... this is the reason why Dean Lucian must change the rules?" Monica slowly sat up from her bed. She lowered her head, but her eyes were focused again. She took a deep breath and felt that her mood seemed to gradually calm down.

Then, she forced a smile towards her friend and said, "It's okay. I was just greedy. I should have known long ago that after I became an adult, I shouldn't believe that perfect fairy tales can happen in reality."

"Yeah." Sally nodded slightly, but soon she felt her hand being gently held by Monica.

"Thank you, Sally."

……

"What are you arguing about? Have you finished your homework? Are you ready before departure? You just know how to make noise!" In another small classroom, Tang En changed his usual gentle attitude and looked coldly at several new wizards who had been drawn because of bad luck. There was a hint of anger in his tone.

"Do you think that living a happy life in the academy is what makes you a wizard? Being a wizard is a thorny road. If you don't have this determination, I think you should give up early and become a first-level wizard apprentice. After becoming a second-level wizard apprentice, don't meditate anymore, and don't think about making progress!"

"How can there be a wizard who doesn't bleed? Do you think that just because you can cast a few spells you can be called a wizard? Dream on!..." Tang En scolded, but at the same time he thought of his own experience.

He had a good relationship with 17 of the new bloods in the same batch, but now, he was the only one still alive... "If you go out and risk your life on your own, the situations you encounter will definitely be more dangerous and more complicated than the tasks assigned to you by the academy. Now you are backing off, but if you encounter real problems when you go out, do you think the other party will give you the right to choose? Dream on!"

Several new wizards who were originally a little angry or fearful listened to Tang En's roar. Now they lowered their heads slightly, with a thoughtful look in their eyes.

"In fact, I hope that everyone in your class will take the initiative to sign up, to feel the atmosphere, to experience the feeling between life and death. Although this mission may be a little dangerous, at least this danger is controllable. It can lay a pretty good foundation for your future path." Tang En stared at several new wizards with a deep look in his eyes.

"But I won't force any of you. If anyone wants to quit, I will help him apply. But the application is also conditional. That is, you must break through the spiritual sea and voluntarily give up the path of wizards. The academy will send you home safely! I swear on the will of the wizard that I will definitely ensure that he gets home safely!"

Tang En looked at these new wizards whose bodies were trembling slightly, and snorted, "Choose!"

Several new wizards were silent at this time.

After a long time, someone stood up on his own initiative, saluted silently towards Tang En, and then turned and left.

After a moment of silence, the remaining few new wizards stood up one after another, saluted or apologized to Tang En, and quietly left the office to begin preparing for the upcoming battle.

……

"I hope my decision is correct." Lucian stood in the dean's office, holding the gray bone scepter in his hand, silently watching the wizard apprentices who were landing on the three airships in an orderly manner.

"Master Lucian, arrangements have been made for the third-level wizard apprentices. They are all third-level wizard apprentices who are willing to fight for points. At the same time, the committee has also sent two members to participate in this cleanup operation." Carly reported the latest arrangements to Lucian.

"In addition, the two official wizards of Winterhold will also participate in this operation. However, according to your previous idea, our combat power this time did not take the wizards of Winterhold into consideration..."

"I understand." Lucian nodded slightly, but his right hand involuntarily gripped the Graybone Scepter tighter. "Get ready to go. Also, I'll leave the new blood to you."

"Yes!" Carly's expression also became a little serious.

At this time, on the deck of the airship, many new recruits were being divided into wizard teams, and each team was assigned a senior second-level wizard apprentice as the leader. At critical moments, these wizard apprentice teams could form wizard battle formations to protect their own safety as much as possible in some emergencies.

However, this atmosphere of war still made many wizard apprentices who had never seen blood feel an indescribable tension. They clenched their weapons or staffs in their hands, and their spirits were already tense before they reached the battlefield.
