The contest between Benjamin and the two hundred mages ended in a hasty way that no one expected.

Feeling the magical strength that calls the wind and rain, the mages on the field have lost their fighting spirit. It took them a while to chant an attack that they gathered, only to be blocked by their opponent with a wave of their hand, and they blocked it so easily and casually. What else do they need to fight?

What's more, the ice shield as magnificent as the sky had completely shattered their confidence.

Under Benjamin's constant urging, the group of mages not only did not fight back, but began to disperse. Under the gaze of thousands of people outside the playground, they raised their hands high, revealing a panicked expression, some even fainted to the ground, and the entire queue gathered together was instantly out of shape.

The figure in the sky seemed to have become some kind of shadow that they remembered for a lifetime, and they no longer had the courage to face it.

Because of this, there is no way to continue the whole competition.

“...... Forget it, since everyone doesn't want to compete, let's end it here. ”

In desperation, Benjamin could only announce the end of the competition and slowly fall from the sky. When the mage in the clearing heard this, he also showed a relieved expression. It's just that they didn't even have the courage to say hello to Benjamin, turned around and left in a hurry, probably never approaching the Academy of Magic again in their lives.

Most of them may even return to a serious illness, some may disband their mage organization, and some may not progress in their magic for the rest of their lives...... It is said that it takes ten minutes, but in fact, the whole process is about two minutes. But in the past two minutes, it has left an indelible rift in the hearts of these people.

For a long time, when they heard the name Benjamin, their bodies couldn't help but start shaking.

Of course, that's all for later. For Benjamin, his goal has been achieved, and there should be no more stumbling blocks from the Mage Order. And this interlude is over, and don't forget, they are still in the middle of the exam!

The Academy's midterm exams will continue.

However, when Benjamin walked back into the crowd, he could find that the visitors, teachers and students around him were in a trance, as if they were in a dream. And the way they looked at Benjamin was completely different from before.

Like those students, their eyes were yearning and expectation before, but now they are in awe and fear, and when they see him walk in, they will even subconsciously take a few steps back. Benjamin suspected that if he opened his mouth to say something, the men might fall to their knees.

Is it so exaggerated?

Benjamin scratched his head.

It's not like he hasn't done something shocking, like a big water balloon in the royal capital, and his posture is much more terrifying than the ice shield just now, right? Why do you come to see him as a monster now?

...... What is the difference between live and broadcast?

He felt a little helpless. It's good that others are in awe of him, but this sense of distance is not what he wants. At the very least, he hopes that he can be an affable dean, not a nightmare where students have to bow their heads when they see it.

"That...... It's nothing, everyone will rest for a while, and the time will continue when the exam is up. He smiled and said to the people around him who were looking at him.

The people around him still stared blankly at him.

Seeing this, Benjamin just shook his head and left the playground by himself. His "Waterfall" not only frightened the leaders of the mage organizations, but also everyone present. It will probably take a while for them to recover.

I hope that in the afternoon exams, students' performance will not be affected too much. I also hope that these people will not be hit by him and lose their confidence in learning magic.

After that, in order to minimize the impact, Benjamin had to hide back in his own place and let the people digest it slowly.

"Don't you think you're wasting a lot of time after a few days of accumulating a ten-minute ice shield and it's gone?" the system complained ruthlessly.

Benjamin shook his head and said casually, "It's good to achieve the purpose at the beginning." ”

Even if someone is frightened by him and loses confidence in learning magic, it doesn't really matter. Not everyone watched the competition, and more people only listened to other people's descriptions, and their curiosity about Benjamin and the academy became stronger. As a result, Benjamin's fame will become more and more powerful.

In a sense, this can be regarded as an elimination.

Witnessing someone who is so powerful that it may be difficult to catch up, will they choose to give up, or will they redouble their efforts? Benjamin wants those who follow him to have a big heart.

In the afternoon, he also found that many students were working harder in the exam.

After all, they have experienced the attack of the priest at the opening ceremony, and they are not children who have never seen the world at all. And the atmosphere of the academy also helped them a lot, they had only been learning magic for a few months, and they could soon regain their courage and continue on the road.

As for the teachers...... They have been with Benjamin for a long time, and they have slowly cultivated some immunity to Benjamin's amazing behavior.

"You say Dean Benjamin, he's a monster, don't compare yourself to him, just meditate on yourself. You've only known him for a short time, and you'll get used to it later. ”

Frank patted a student on the shoulder, so comforting.

The student nodded understandingly, turned around and continued the test.

The mid-term exams are still ongoing, and everyone's schedule is different, with a written exam plus actual combat, for a total of two days. Most of them were not affected by the fact that the exams continued as usual.

There were many fewer visitors in the academy than in the morning, except for the mage organization that left in a hurry, maybe some other visitors were also frightened, and they were not in the mood to visit for the time being. However, it is better to have fewer people, it is easier to maintain order, and the exam can be carried out a little faster.

Benjamin even took advantage of the opportunity to find the eyeliner of several churches.

“...... You also saw that scene just now, right?" "In the remote streets of Akademi, several priests in robes exchanged words, "We must report it to the Bishop as soon as possible, the threat of that mage is beyond our imagination. ”

Hearing this, the other two mages also nodded.

While Benjamin was patrolling the town, the water elemental sense swept over them, and he didn't find anything unusual. If it weren't for the system speaking up and saying that there were a few sneaky guys around the corner, he wouldn't have noticed these people.

Hiding in the corner, he eavesdropped on the conversation between the three and quickly confirmed their identities.

"Father ...... How could this be? When I swept over them with the water elemental sensing method, I didn't find anything. It's as if they're just a few ordinary people. He asked in his mind.

"I don't know. The system replied, "In my way, their mental power is also very low, just a group of ordinary people." At first, I thought there were just a few thieves here, trying to use them to deceive you, but I didn't expect that it was really the people from the church, and I miscalculated. ”

“......”

Benjamin was speechless for a moment, shook his head, and still rushed to make a move before the three priests could send the news back to the Hori Kingdom, expand the water elemental realm, and completely encompass them.

"Oops...... It's that guy, how could he find out about our ......"

Benjamin didn't bother to talk nonsense, and with a wave of his hand, he summoned a storm of hundreds of ice blades, slicing them into pieces along with the barrier of light.

It's a pity that he didn't find anything of value from these people.

"Has the church's eyeliner begun to blend in with Akademi?"

Coming out of the corner and looking at the crowded street not far away, Benjamin suddenly narrowed his eyes and muttered to himself.
