While the two were standing in front of the painting chatting, the sound of opening the door suddenly came.
Lanta's eyes moved towards the door.
"It seems I came just in time?"
Countess Rosalinda came towards them with a small bag of documents and motioned for them to sit on the sofa.
Today she no longer wore a bright red evening dress like that night, but a corset Card Makers Association work outfit with a rose pattern.
"Miss Rosalinda, thank you for inviting us to view this painting."
Lanci and Talia both said hello to President Rosalinda and started chatting with her.
At this moment, Countess Rosalinda's more formal identity is the president of the Parrieux branch of the Southern Continent Card Maker Association, and she is also the person in charge of the Eastern Region Platinum Level Card Maker Examination.
"I was worried that I kept you waiting for a long time. Because I had too many official preparations recently, I almost got delayed and didn't come back on time. However, I originally wanted to invite you to see this painting. After all, you are my lovely junior brothers and sisters."
Rosalinda was still as enthusiastic as the last time she saw them, and she smiled intimately when she saw the two of them.
"Today's examination schedule and examination topic selection have been announced by the headquarters of the Southern Continent Card Makers Association. I have also brought the invigilation regulations for you as examiners and assistants. You can take a look at it first. If you don't understand anything, feel free to ask me. "
She handed a stack of pages to the two people across from the sofa.
"Miss Rosalinda, I would like to make some changes regarding the examiner's assistant this time."
Thalia took the page, put it in Ranchi's hand, and said to Rosalinda.
"what?"
Countess Rosalinda's eyes were full of doubt.
"I won't be Lanqi's assistant this time. I have to take the exam."
Thalia's voice was full of determination.
To take the platinum-level card maker exam through the conventional route, you must not only meet the gold-level registered card maker qualification of the Southern Continent Card Maker Association, but also need a certain number of years of work experience and contribution results. On this basis, you can apply for the exam to be promoted to the platinum level. .
Or the second way is to get a guaranteed recommendation from an active platinum-level or magic crystal-level card maker, or you can apply for a special exam.
Back then, Duke Milaya took the platinum-level card maker exam when he was able to make his debut. This was exactly what his teacher, General Sphintos, the dean of the Knights Academy, asked for recommendations from old friends who were platinum-level card makers from other countries.
For example, Kallen was promoted to gold level in the second year, and took the platinum level card maker exam in the third year. It was recommended by the platinum level card maker from the Aloran Kingdom.
"Well, since this kind of recommendation has a limit and is limited to one time per session, it is often difficult to obtain it from platinum-level or magic crystal-level card makers."
Countess Rosalinda looked at Tata, then at Ranchi, and said to Tata,
"Have you made an agreement with Lan Qi?"
The Hutton Kingdom did not ask for Lanqi's recommendation this year because there were no suitable new gold-level card makers who could make an exception and take the platinum-level exam.
She probably knew that Tata wanted to participate, and she probably wanted to get a recommendation from Lan Qi.
"He has no problem with it."
Tata replied.
The reason why she dared to make a bet with Kallen was so that Lan Qi could be ordered to recommend her.
Lan Qi: "..."
He really had no problem with it.
"Junior sister Tata really doesn't want to be an assistant anymore and she has to take the exam?"
When Rosalinda heard this, not only was she not embarrassed, she actually showed a look of joy.
"I just said that Junior Sister Tata looks like a talented magic craftsman. How could she be willing to remain unknown?"
After all, even Professor Borao is willing to let Tata work in the laboratory, which is enough to illustrate her ability.
According to Rosalinda's conjecture, she originally thought that Tata was a craftsman who was better at other types of magic research, but since she could serve as Lanqi's examiner assistant, it meant that she was actually a card maker who could make cards.
"Talented woman..."
Lan Qi's face was ashen, he leaned on the sofa and muttered.
After eight hundred years of accumulation of knowledge, they are indeed talented women.
Most of his strength as a card maker lies in Da Ai.
Now that Da Ai has been eaten by Tata, Tata still needs to use his magic power to take the exam. Now he is not sure whether he can do the job of an examiner.
"Just tell me if I am a talented woman."
Thalia questioned him mentally.
She heard Lan Qi mention "eight hundred years" just now, but she decided to give Lan Qi a chance.
"Indeed, they are all accumulated talents. They are not only talented and virtuous, but also have charm."
Lan Qi sighed inwardly.
Suddenly, Talia reached out and pinched Lan Qi's waist secretly, which cheered Lan Qi up for a moment.
"..."
Countess Rosalinda watched the two people's little movements in silence from the opposite side.
In fact, she kind of noticed it last time at the Earl's Mansion, but she just pretended not to see it.
She is not blind.
These two people seemed to think she didn't see them, and now they regarded her as part of some kind of game, making her even more embarrassed to expose them.
Fortunately, these two are talented and good-looking. Needless to say, the man is not a good-for-nothing demon like Ifatia, who eats young grass and has no sense of shame. Unlike Milaya and Ifatia, That pair made her heartache.
"Okay, let me help you arrange the registration process for taking the exam. The recommender and the recommended person can each fill out a form. Your information does not need to be submitted again. I still have the previous backup here."
Rosalinda sighed softly, took out the communication magic device in the living room, and asked her assistant to help deliver another set of documents.
"You can take a look at the exam information first. Later, there will be some content that only the examiner can listen to, so please ask Junior Sister Tata to avoid it."
She told the two of them while instructing her assistant.
Since the exam regulations have been made public today, it does not matter if candidates see the test questions. It is within the normal process.
Since the release of the new solar calendar regulations of the Southern Continent Card Maker Association, the Platinum Level Card Maker Examination has a total of six dimensions of questions.
Each session is a matter of choosing three out of six, depending on luck.
They are magic engineering principles, attribute specialization, deck testing, artistry, theoretical research, and type specialization.
"no problem."
Thalia agreed.
She knew Lan Qi wouldn't help her cheat, and she didn't need Lan Qi's help. This time she would use her strength to crush Kallen and make her lose completely.
Lan Qi picked up the document and looked through it quickly.
The exam questions drawn this year are [Magic Principles], [Deck Test], and [Artistics].
The exam is divided into three rounds, with each phase testing different skills and areas of knowledge.
The first round of Magic Craft Principles is more of a theoretical knowledge test, examining candidates' theoretical and cognitive attainments in magic crafts. There is a high probability of being selected every year. Card makers who are good at this will also be powerful magic wizards themselves. Weapon master or magic craftsman.
The second round of the deck test is a practical skills test, which requires candidates to use designated materials and tools to complete one or more high-quality products within a limited time. It is also the most difficult level. It will be a more simulated battlefield system. The higher the comprehensiveness of the card maker's functions, attributes and types, the greater the advantage. That is, under certain conditions, the card maker is ordered to make a set of countermeasure cards, and at the same time, the artificial shadow world starts an actual combat simulation to determine whether this deck can Help the artificial intelligence projected creatures pass the test, or directly engage in simulated battles.
The third round of artistry is an innovative challenge, and candidates need to demonstrate their indispensable and possible skills.
"Junior Brother Lanqi, you are responsible for being the deputy examiner for the first magic engineering principle examination and the chief examiner for the third artistic examination."
Countess Rosalinda came over and pointed at the exam arrangement entry in the document in Ranchi's hand.
This is also the most information about the exam that Tata has heard.
There are three rounds of the Platinum Level Card Maker Examination, and there are three examiners. Each round has a chief examiner and deputy examiner. The three examiners will serve as the chief examiner and deputy examiner respectively.
The chief examiner represents the item that the examiner is best at, and the deputy examiner represents the item that the candidate is not good at. If the candidate wants to pass, he must at least beat the deputy examiner to prove that he has reached the qualification line of a platinum-level card maker.
If you can't even match the weaknesses of other platinum-level card makers, you won't be eligible for promotion at all.
"The examiner for the first exam is Mr. Bruton Izainha, a platinum-level card maker from the Kingdom of Aloran. He is a very nice person. There is no pressure to work with him to invigilate the exam. He was the one who gave Mi Gai the exam in the first place. Ya recommended, I will partner with him in the second game, and you will partner with me in the third game.”
Countess Rosalinda explained for Ranchi.
The first round is this Saturday, the second round next Wednesday, and the third round next Sunday.
Candidates will have three days to adjust between the two sessions, and examiners will also have more time to rest.
"I understand. Tomorrow I will put on the uniform and the magic device mask that you gave me last time, senior sister. I will arrive about two hours early and the location will be in Hall 1 of the Holy Silver Vine Arena, right?"
Ranch confirmed the core items on the file with Rosalinda.
He has already asked for leave at Count Baptiste's house in advance. He will only go to the Count's house tomorrow morning to complete some necessary arrangements, and then he can leave early in the morning.
Thalia glanced at Lanqi silently.
She knows that any job is equally important to the dedicated Ranchi.
He is really a master of time management and can actually operate two lines of work on the same day.
"Yes, we will borrow the venue with the largest artificial shadow world activation terminal in Parrieux. Whenever there is an exam, the magic competition will be suspended that day."
Rosalinda felt that Ranchi and Tata had been to the Saint Silver Vine Arena in District 6 these days, which was also a very famous attraction.
As for the competition in the arena, the formats of the exams in the three games are all different.
The first session [Principles of Magic Craftsmanship] is mainly in the form of a seminar. Shadow World has its own mechanism. The deputy examiner conducts question and answer exchanges with the candidates, and the chief examiner reviews and scores.
The passing line is the score obtained by the chief examiner during the final review of the deputy examiner.
At the same time, the examiner has the right to make adjustments of up to plus or minus 10% if the score line is too high or too low.
Generally speaking, if the deputy examiner is normal, there is no need to use this authority.
And once used, it can easily trigger "examiner's challenge" and review by the headquarters.
Examiner challenge means that when candidates have doubts about the examiner's judgment or strength, they can ask the examiner to personally prove their strength. At that time, the deputy examiner will publicly review the examiner.
The second [Deck Test], this one has nothing to do with Lan Qi, he can take a day off.
In the third session [Artisticality], the examiner selects a proposition and the examinee creates it within a time limit. Except for the objective score, which is automatically determined based on the degree of completion, the other part of the score is scored by the examiner.
Similarly, the examiner also has the right to adjust the score by 10% according to the situation.
"In addition, I still want to remind you that the honest registration system has been added to the exam world. Even if you two know each other, you must not have the intention to cheat. Otherwise, once detected, the candidate's qualifications will be cancelled. Examiners will also be severely punished."
