Chapter 539: Dispute with Song Li
With the capabilities of this instrument, its more suitable destination is not the examination room, but the magic game console.
Although, it is actually very difficult to enter magic power and control it, and you are always practicing (squeezing) the participants' magic use skills.
But, since it can simulate a confrontation, why can't it help the user?
If the magic power it consumes is controlled to a level acceptable to the newly-entered magic apprentice, then it can become the most popular luxury of the entire aristocratic class. If we go further, reduce the manufacturing cost and make civilians qualified to experience the fun of this "game", then it will become a great invention that illuminates an era!
Wien's eyes lit up while rubbing the complex lines inside the instrument.
Conley could not resist his atrocities, so he had to sit aside depressedly, sighing in his mouth: "Money...my money is gone."
"Just treat it as the reward you paid for squeezing my labor force before."
Hearing this, Conley had nothing to say.
After venting it open, Wien used magic to carefully explore its internal structure and finally discovered a secret.
"So that's how it is actually used to regulate the energy supply... but it is necessary to deposit enough magic in advance, which is a big flaw..." he said to himself.
Not all the magic reserves in their bodies are as strong as themselves.
What's more, how many advanced magicians are willing to spend the magic that they have accumulated with great effort on such things?
I still have a long way to go to promote it in my daily life.
"How is it?" Kang Li finally couldn't help but start to feel complacent when he saw his thoughtful expression. "Are you impressed by the ingenious thoughts of being a master?"
"Indeed, I have to admit that you do have two tricks, teacher." Wien nodded.
Conley's two beards were raised higher.
"But over the years, teacher, you have made countless inventions, including many very successful products, but why haven't you made a fortune?" He seemed to really not understand.
Conley's face suddenly collapsed.
"Well, that's just because it's cost to be at the forefront of magic research. Don't look at the final product that seems to be very profitable, but in fact there are countless resources to consume."
After a moment of pause, he sighed, "In addition, I may have lost some luck."
Many nobles often paid for funding in the laboratory under his name, and several teachers and students occasionally took on private work. But until now, Conley himself has not lived a wealthy life.
He doesn't fall in love, get married, or make friends. He just studies every day, and when he is tired, he will sleep in the laboratory nearby.
Just by investing in various new research, he almost spent all the money he had saved up every year.
If it weren't for the chief disciple Oliv's helping to formulate a budget and limit expenses, before he could have achieved any useful results, Conley would have to sit at the gate of the school to beg for food.
Wien glanced at him who was slightly frustrated and comforted him: "Actually, your luck is not too bad, teacher."
"At least you don't have me as an apprentice~ I am a man destined to shake the entire continent in the future." He shamelessly gilded himself on his face.
"Ha." Conley also glanced at him sideways.
"Until then, I would be even more grateful if you were willing to go back and convince Duke Elliot to increase the sponsorship fee a little more."
"——Sorry, just pretend I didn't say anything."
...
Not long after the special lecture, a report written by Oliv himself was soon released.
Students from three different classes were used as samples and compared with each other in different grouping methods. Although the sample capacity was not sufficient, it could indeed prove some facts.
When Wien came to the front of the bulletin board, Ge Li had been standing here for a long time.
When she noticed someone approaching her, she turned her head slightly.
But as soon as she saw Wien's face, she immediately turned her gaze back.
"..." Wien didn't know what to say for a moment, so he could only find nothing to say.
"Teacher Oliv's report is very detailed."
The entire bulletin board was almost covered with all the same content, and probably the same content had been placed on the desks of the leaders of the school.
Wien read it one by one.
In the summary table, the scores of Class A are concentrated in the upper and lower positions, with few middle scores, while Class B is generally one level lower than A.
Although there are not many groups with scores at the top in the e-class where Wien is in, the scores in the upper middle part are unexpectedly quite a lot.
Oliv's final conclusion was very simple, that is, the combination of group pros and cons is most conducive to improving overall grades. It is recommended that the rest of the classes study humbly.
"I don't agree." Ge Li suddenly said.
"Hmm?" Wien looked at her.
"I don't agree. Other classes need to learn from your experience." Geli stubbornly bit her lower lip. "If it weren't for you, the first place would be our class."
Wien thought for a while and asked softly: "But even if the first place is your group, is the overall score still the highest average score in our class?"
"It's just a little higher..."
"One point higher is also high."
Knowing that she would probably be unwilling to give up, Wien didn't care about her improper arguments.
"In fact, this investigation can also have reference significance in real life. There is a theory called the 'barrel effect'..."
He was about to talk aloud, but the song liar interrupted his words without giving him face. "——A person with low abilities has no meaning to be valued at all."
Before Wien could finish his words, he suddenly got stuck in his throat.
Perhaps he regarded his silence as a fault, Ge Li continued: "This research deviated from the right path from the beginning."
"There is no need to think about how to make poor students achieve better results, and allocate all resources to the strongest and most promising people, which is the most reasonable way to train them."
Wien frowned and said, "So, because I am better than you, I should naturally get more resources than you?"
"I have no objection." Ge Li answered without hesitation.
"..." Wien didn't know what to say.
"It's not like this." He said in a deep voice, "The major magic academies of the Kingdom are established to cultivate enough magicians, even if they are not the strongest ones."
How can talents produced year after year be able to compare with those elites who have been practicing behind closed doors and carefully polished for decades to become masters?
