My Mage System (BL)

Chapter 119

Kevin wanted to know if he could absorb the darkness particles that were contained inside the darkness talisman papers they got.

And, he also wanted to learn how to introduce particles into talisman papers so that he could help Alan and they would get a better chance to craft as many weapons as possible with the Trinium.

Axel told him that as long as he was just talking there was no problem, he reminded him that he should definitely not use his Soul force yet.

Kevin nodded and reassured him, then he asked him when exactly the selections for the annual capital's tournament would take place and what the tests consisted of.

Axel told him that the selections would start on the 11th of the next month and that they would end on the 15th.

As for the annual capital's tournament, it would start on the 21st of the 10th month and the finals would be held on the 30th to celebrate the end of the year.

Axel told him that for the mages' tests all he knew about it was that the first test was always on crafting potions, and the second one was the spell fights.

When he saw Kevin looking at him puzzled he told him that during spell fights only spells could be used.

The mages had to stand inside a circle at a certain distance from each other and if ever one stepped out of their circle, he would lose the fight.

Too cool, Kevin thought, but when Axel reminded him that those in first year couldn't participate, he couldn't help but be disappointed.

Axel then decided to explain to him how was the tests for the fighters, he was sure Kevin was going to love it.

He explained to him that it was a little different for the fighters, only those in 3, 4, 5 and 6th year could participate, the 1st and 2nd year being too inexperienced and the 7th year having become tutors it was their students who represented them.

And only those who had succeeded in qualifying in the Three Sects tournament could participate in the selections for the annual capital's tournament.

The Three Sects tournament was a tournament between the three largest sects on the continent, it was necessary because otherwise there would be too many fighters for these selections, in the Sun Sect alone there were about 200 fighters per year.

For everyone the tests would be the same, there was always a maximum of 200 participants per year category, and everytime this number was reached.

Then, they would be divided into two groups of 100 people, and on a giant platform, the two groups would take turns to fight.

On the 100 fighters only the last 15 who would remain on the platform would be selected for the one-on-one fights and in each group a fighter who was eliminated would be drafted thanks to his number of points.

To gain points it was easy, you just had to eliminate other fighters, for each fighter eliminated 1 point would be given.

Anyone who succeeded in selecting themselves for the one-on-one fights would be selected for the annual capital's tournament.

At the end, the top 3 of each year usually won generous prizes.

Axel added that all weapons were allowed except artifacts, and now that he knew weapons had Stats, he wasn't surprised anymore that some managed to get qualify without having any real talent.

Kevin nodded, and then he asked him curious : "I hadn't noticed that there were so many fighters in the Sun Sect, where do you train ? The gymnasium is way too small for all of you."

Axel smiled at him and replied : "The gymnasium is reserved for those in 4th year and up, and every day there is a rotation between the different years.
