It was a girl, no more than seventeen or eighteen years old, she should be a freshman, and her trembling legs were so nervous that she confirmed this even more.

The referee who controlled the competition was very kind, and said with a smile: "Classmate, don't be nervous, let me ask you, are the rules of the game clear?"

"Clear ...... Clear. The girl nodded hurriedly.

The referee nodded: "Now stand in the red circle, give you a minute to prepare, and then signal to me, and you can start the game." ”

"Good...... Good. ”

A minute later, the girl raised her hand to signal that she was ready.

The referee gave an order: "In the first round of the control competition, player L starts!"

With some strange wave of magical power, a ring about ten centimeters in diameter rose and swirled around the equipment in the center of the field.

At the same time, the girl also recited the mantra of the mage's hand, and controlled the metal ball on the ground, which was only a little smaller than the ring, and flew towards the circle in the sky.

The speed of the ring is not fast, and the height is only one meter above the ground, so it is quickly overtaken.

However, the girl did not dare to immediately follow the requirements of the game and pass the metal ball directly through the ring, but controlled the metal ball to keep the same speed as the ring and circle, until the speed of the two was completely the same, then she adjusted her mental power and controlled the metal ball to jump over.

"Whew!" the first lap was successful, and the girl let out a long breath.

In the next second, on the screen of the alchemy instrument, a number 1 was displayed, indicating that she had completed one layer at present. The ring, on the other hand, was quickly raised by 1 meter in height and slightly increased in speed.

However, these changes were still not too difficult, and soon, the girl completed the second lap, and the number on the instrument screen became 2.

After a little more than a minute, the tenth floor is completed, and the eleventh floor is about to begin.

At this moment, the ring has climbed to a height of 11 meters. It's also a lot faster than before.

The girl was sweating profusely, obviously struggling, but still persevering.

She desperately tried to hold the metal ball steady and maintain the same speed as the ring, and then concocted the same method, trying to control the metal ball through the ring.

But just then, the speed of the ring suddenly increased slightly.

"Ding!"

With a crisp thud, the metal ball hit the edge of the ring, then lost control and fell to the ground.

The game is over.

The referee immediately announced, "Player No. 1 has a score of 10 floors." Now please leave the competition area and go to the rest area to recover and wait for the next round. Player 2 is invited to enter the competition area. ”

The girl looked at the ring in the sky with some unwillingness and shook her head. She knew that there would be a change in speed in the ring after the 11th floor, but she forgot about it because she was too nervous, so she could only leave silently and give up her position to a boy in the back.

Contestant 2 soon restarted, and the others were discussing the girl's match.

A burly intermediate student said to his companion: "It's not bad for freshmen to be able to complete the 10th floor, the last competition. My best score was only 12 floors. ”

The companion pouted and said, "That's because you're too weak, I reached the 13th floor in the last competition." ”

"What's wrong with the 13th floor, the first place in the last session was the 17th floor. The burly boy said dissatisfiedly, and then smiled: "But after three years of training." I've been able to reach the 23rd floor now, how are you?"

Hearing him say this, his companion immediately questioned: "My best score is only 21, can you reach the 23rd floor?"

The burly boy raised his eyebrows: "How can you brag? If you don't believe it, you will watch it for a while! Brother, I will show you what is the 23rd floor!"

"Then I'm going to have to take a good look. If you can reach the 23rd floor, you might be able to make it to the top three. ”

On the other side, Leo was watching intently as player No. 2 controlled the metal ball. At the same time, he consciously analyzes his control of the metal ball, simulating the scene of his own competition.

At this time, Conrad, a classmate who also participated in the control competition, came over and said in a low voice: "Oh, I'm so nervous, I'm next, it's really unlucky to draw such a high serial number." By the way, what number are you?"

Leo smiled and said: "I'm No. 22, don't be nervous, there are 3 rounds in total, even if you don't play well the first time, there are still two chances in the future." ”

"That being said, this kind of competition is usually the best result for the first time. Although the mage's hand can't consume much mental power, in order to find the orbit of the ring, it has to maintain a high-speed calculation, and the strength of mental power will definitely decrease, and the further it goes, the greater the impact. Conrad said with a sad face.

Seeing the two talking, Hayes, another contestant from Intermediate Class 1, also came up and sighed: "Alas, my luck is not good, I won the 43rd draw, and I have to be the penultimate match." At this rate, it will take at least an hour to wait, and it will be annoying. ”

Conrad patted his classmate's shoulder, feeling a little connected to his fate, and then said: "Hayes, you were the first place last year, just now I heard the tall and strong man in class 3 say that he can reach 23 floors, how many floors can you reach this year?"

Hayes shook his head: "I can't say for sure, we usually don't have instruments to practice, so we can only get something to try by ourselves." However, my current mental control is much stronger than when I first entered the school, and when I opened the practice not long ago, my best score was 25 layers. ”

Leo knew something about their claims from Sanders.

Except for the Tour de la Tour, which has no special equipment requirements, many other events must be competed using the college's proprietary equipment. In order to prevent students from only pursuing competition results and ignoring the usual applications, the academy will only take out these instruments for everyone to practice one month before the competition starts.

This guide is lacking in practice for many people, but it is relatively fair and can reflect a person's true level.

"Hehe, then we're both the same, my best last week was also 25. Conrad said, looked at Leo with an excited face, and asked, "By the way, Leo-san, how many floors can you reach? If you can reach 24 floors, our class will almost be able to take the top three." ”

Leo didn't answer immediately, but had a headache. Because he was afraid that if he said it, he would scare the other party and affect the match that Conrad was about to play. And he hasn't discovered his upper limit yet, so it's really hard to answer.

Just as he was using his brain and pondering what to say, the referee's voice came: "Player No. 2 has a score of 12 layers, now please leave the competition area and go to the rest area to wait for the next round." Next, please ask the No. 3 player to enter the competition area. (To be continued......)
