Dixon Holt can definitely be regarded as a wonder in the Imperial Academy of Magic.
He was twenty-nine years old and was born in the province of Lille in the south of the empire.
He came from an ordinary background, his father was a carpenter, who specialized in odd jobs for the aristocracy and the wealthy, and his mother was a tailor who lived in a small city called Kata in the province of Lille, and the family had a tailor's shop.
Such a typical family of small craftsmen actually lived a comfortable life.
At the age of sixteen, Dixon Holt showed a talent for magic, and before that, he had spent three years at a local church school, where he could write and count.
And at the age of sixteen, Dixon Holt's life took a turning point.
The Imperial Magic Guild builds a new house in the local branch, and Dixon's carpenter father gets a job as a result.
And one day, when little Dixon went to the Magic Guild branch to deliver lunch to his father, who was working, was accidentally seen by a deacon mage of the local branch of the magic union, and then found out that this child is very clever and smart, this magician probably got out of the reason that he was too bored, and he was idle, so he entered this boy After a while, the test results speak for themselves.
Dixon's fate changed dramatically because he was found to have a talent for magic Even after the Academy of Magic broke the monopoly of the Magic Guild, in the past hundred years, the magical civilization of the Roland Empire has made great progress, and the number of magicians has increased by about ten times compared to a hundred years ago, but the overall number is still very rare.
This is mainly due to the fact that the mage profession relies too much on "talent" And human beings themselves are not a race known for their magical talents, so among human beings, people with magical talents are very rare, according to a not very complete statistics, in an average of 10,000 people, I am afraid that less than ten people with magical talents can be found.
That's just around 1 in 1,000.
And with the civilization level of this world, it is naturally impossible for the Roland Empire to conduct a national population census and detailed screening like the real world where Chen Daolin is located, so in fact, the number of magicians in the Roland Empire, relative to the population base, may not even reach one in 10,000.
Therefore, once a seedling with a magical talent is found, it will attract a lot of attention from the relevant convenience.
Dixon Holt's information was quickly reported.
Originally, according to this trajectory, Dixon Holt would enter the Imperial Magic Guild, be selected as a disciple by a certain magician, and then be trained according to the old model of one-on-one teaching, and finally become a standard traditional old-fashioned magician, and then become a part of the Magical Guild camp in the magical field.
But after all, the Magic Guild is an ancient organization, conservative and stubborn, and many times the style of acting is conservative and old-fashioned, so after discovering the good seedling of Dixon Holt, although the information has been reported, but From the local branch to the union headquarters in Yenching, after approval, review, and then arrange for review, and assessment, and finally put Dixon on the shortlist for the right magician to select as an apprentice This process is very cumbersome, and I have to say that in the past hundred years, the influence of the Magic Guild has gradually been weakened by the Academy of Magic, and there is a reason.
Compared to the slow reaction of the Magic Guild, the Magic Academy's reaction speed is much faster The Academy of Magic is an official student of the Empire.
After learning about the incident, the local city officials where Dixon was located also reported Dixon's matter in accordance with the procedure.
The Academy of Magic's response was much quicker than the Magic Guild's They immediately sent a magic teacher and two clerks to Dixon's hometown, and then conducted a magic talent test in front of Dixon, and the next day, Dixon was taken away.
A month later, Dixon had arrived in Yanjing, entered the Academy of Magic, and went through the admission procedures, and at this time, the information about Dixon was still being reviewed within the Magic Union.
Dixon then became a probationary student at the Academy of Magic, where he underwent an initial training and testing process to determine which department the student's talent was inclined to, and to assign the student to the branch according to that talent.
And the second turning point in Dixon's life was here.
It's such a coincidence that the preparatory class of the Imperial Academy of Magic has always been presided over by the deans of several branches in turn, but when Dixon was in the preparatory class, it happened to be Dean Carmen's turn to be in charge of the preparatory class.
Each branch dean will try his best to drag excellent seedlings into his own branch, and this truth naturally does not need to be explained too much.
Dixon was evaluated for his outstanding potential during the test, and then was selected by Dean Carmen to enter the Hogwarts Branches, becoming a student in the most honorable, legendary and powerful branch of the Academy of Magic.
Dixon did live up to the assessment of "outstanding potential".
The standard for magic academies has historically been six years.
After completing six years of standard school year magic education, Dixon successfully advanced to become a full-fledged magician, and by the time he graduated, his strength had reached the standard of a fourth-level magician, just entering the threshold of a "mid-level mage".
You know, Dixon wasn't even twenty-three years old at that time At the age of twenty-three, he became a mid-level magician, even in the Imperial Academy of Magic, a place where there are many geniuses, he is definitely a leader If you want to make a comparison, for example, Chen Daolin's nemesis Paning, and the cold-faced handsome guy Te, both of whom are in their twenties and have become middle-level samurai, have been hung with many titles and titles of "genius".
Dixon was undoubtedly also a genius, a genius of magic Of course, people like Chen Daolin, who have entered the intermediate threshold in less than half a year after becoming a magician, are not among them, and this bastard has a plug-in at all However, Dixon's reputation is not very well-known, and there is only one reason: his major in magic is too out-of-the-box If his major in magic is the most common and popular subjects such as fire, wind, water, and earth, then Dixon, who became a mid-level mage at the age of twenty-two and a half, is definitely qualified to become famous in the world and become another rising star of hope in the magic academy But Dixon cultivated Transfiguration Transfiguration has always been an unpopular subject of magic.
Because of this magic, it is extremely complicated to cultivate, but at the same time, it is not very practical, especially the lack of practical combat value.
Transfiguration is a branch of physical art.
Of course, it's not that this magic is weak.
In fact, if the Transfiguration Technique is cultivated to a high depth, it is also very powerful If you are a high-level magician who is good at transfiguration, then you can transform into a variety of powerful magical beasts, which can be said to be ever-changing, and you can simulate all the magical abilities of the changed magical beasts From this point of view, the power of Transfiguration lies in the fact that the magicians who cultivate it are actually not restricted by the magical caste from a certain point of view A Transfiguration Mage can transform into a Flame Rhinoceros and can use fire magic, or it can become an Ice Demon Wolf and can use wind magic.
It can also turn into a water troll and use water magic This is where Transfiguration Mages are truly powerful and valuable.
However, it was a very long, even long, road to cultivating Transfiguration to a high level.
Legend has it that if a Transfiguration mage cultivates to the Holy Rank, he can even become the ultimate high-level creature dragon, and has the same abilities as the dragon However, it has not been thousands of years since there has been a magician in the Roland world who can cultivate Transfiguration to this level.
And even if Dixon has cultivated the Transfiguration Technique to the middle level, he will at most become some relatively weak magical beasts, such as the Ice and Snow Demon Wolf and the like, which is the limit.
But the strength of the Ice and Snow Demon Wolf can be dealt with by just a low-level warrior.
You know, magicians have always been stronger than warriors.
In the case of the same level, the magician is generally stronger than the martial artist, and a magician of the same level can definitely defeat a martial artist of the same level.
But the Transfiguration is hehehehe Before the Transfiguration Technique is cultivated to a high level, the role of actual combat is very limited, so it has always been not taken seriously, and it is also the most popular among all magic subjects.
It can be said that in recent decades, almost no one has chosen to practice Transfiguration.
Dixon Holt, however, is absolutely a wonder.
He just chose such an unpopular subject to practice.

Therefore, even though he obtained the status of a mid-level magician at a young age, he still has no reputation.
And after he graduated, he did not leave the Imperial Academy of Magic, but chose to stay in the academy to serve as a metamorphosis magician Anyway, even if he left the academy, there were no real wealthy nobles willing to recruit this kind of mage who did not have much practical value, and as for those local nobles in the countryside, Dixon was really not interested in going.
Besides, there is no better place in this world than the Academy of Magic, where he likes to study Transfiguration, and the Academy of Magic has the largest inventory of magical literature, materials, materials needed for research, magic laboratories, and food and clothing In this way, Dixon stayed to teach at the Academy of Magic, but he did not become a formal teacher in the academy, because apart from him, there is currently no student in the academy who practices Transfiguration As for other subjects, he was too commonplace, so he could only enter the general management department of the college and took up a position in the logistics department.
And the son of this carpenter from the south is a wild boy in his bones, and he is a troublemaker.
In the past few years in the academy, I have violated almost every college rule I can think of.
If it weren't for Dean Carmen's protection, I'm afraid he would have been swept away by the academy a long time ago, and Dean Carmen did this purely for the sake of Dixon's cultivation of Transfiguration.
Very few people are willing to practice this spell now.
As the Dean of the Sorting House and the de facto first person of the Academy of Magic, Dean Carmen has a strong sense of mission, and this woman believes that it is her duty to preserve a seed of Transfiguration for the magical community of the Empire.
Even if you keep this little bastard and just fill a gap and put it there as a mascot, it's good.
At least, as long as Dixon is around, it can be seen that in the Academy of Magic, Transfiguration has not broken its heritage.
Dean Carmen still values this significance.
As a result, Dixon, who had been in trouble again and again, was placed on probation again and again And at the moment.
Dixon stood at the door of Chen Daolin's house early in the morning, whether it was this guy who likes to cause trouble, or Chen Daolin himself, the two of them didn't know a fact at the moment: Dixon, the son of a carpenter from the South, has reached the third major turning point in his life since he stood on the doorstep of Chen Daolin's house Chen Daolin grabbed his hair helplessly.
He was wearing a brand-new robe from the School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, a black robe, and the Hogwarts Sorting Badge was embroidered on his chest, there was no doubt that this Sorting House was founded by Dewey in the past, so the pattern of this Sorting Badge was naturally a tulip However, in order to distinguish it from the totem of the Tulip family, the Tulip, the emblem of the Hogwarts Branch, has been modified somewhat.
The totem of the tulip family is a tulip flower blooming in flames.
The coat of arms of the Hogwarts Branches, although it is also a blooming tulip, is not a flame in the background, but a lightning bolt "Hmph, does it mean a boy with a lightning mark?"
Chen Daolin was a little speechless.
This Dewey, how much do you like to watch Harry Potter?
"What lightning, what boy" Dixon on the side turned his head to look at Chen Daolin and asked suspiciously.
The two of them were walking side by side on the wooded road leading to the Hogwarts Chapter.
This guy is very enthusiastic about Chen Daolin, and he is very talkative, after all, he has been in this place for thirteen years since he entered the academy at the age of sixteen, and he can be regarded as an old bird of the academy.
Along the way, he was telling Chen Daolin about all kinds of strange things in the academy and gossiping about the inside story.
However, Chen Daolin noticed that this Dixon did not say anything about Carmen It stands to reason that Carmen's mother and son should be the most gossipable characters in the entire magic academy.
But Dixon didn't say a word, and in his words, it was obvious that he had a deep awe for Dean Carmen, and to Chen Daolin's surprise, in this awe, there was more respect than fear
