Chapter 74 The year-end exam
Whether you are looking forward to it or fearing it, what should come will come eventually.
The year-end assessment of the freshmen of the Blood Yao Royal Academy has begun.
The sky was overcast, and there were scattered snowflakes, which added a bit of a solemn atmosphere to this fateful assessment.
The 23 students of this class stood in a circle around the 500-square-meter circular martial arts arena and stepped forward one by one to draw lots.
The year-end assessment of Xueyao Academy determines the ranking of the results by competition, and the students determine the opponent by drawing lots, and the winner enters the next round of the battle, and finally determines the first place in the score and receives the scholarship.
The losers of the first round will also play against each other, and the winner will pass the test smoothly, and the loser will continue to face off until the final eliminated one is determined.
In the end, it is not necessarily the one with the worst strength, but it must be the one with the worst luck, because luck is also part of strength. And there is no restriction on the use of enchanted equipment, magic scrolls and other items during the competition, because wealth is also part of strength.
The whole assessment process is the true embodiment of His Majesty Streich's military philosophy, the winner is king, regardless of the process, only the living have the opportunity to speak, history is written by the winner!
"At the beginning of the assessment, please draw the students who have drawn the No. 1 sign to come to the stage. "The one who presided over the assessment was the great magician Austin, and he came to the stage without any nonsense and announced the start directly.
The assessment is carried out one by one, and the academy also takes the assessment as part of the actual combat teaching, hoping that students can learn to find the weaknesses of different departments of magicians by observing other people's battles.
Joan, who won the No. 1 lot, was still dressed in white, and he calmly walked to the center of the arena, first smiling and bowing to the Austin Grand Magician, and then to the surrounding classmates.
Arthur in the audience pouted, Joan always looked polite and loved in front of outsiders, so that people who hated him couldn't hate him.
Joan's opponent was a tall, lanky teenager who walked into the jousting arena with a calm face behind Joan.
After the two stood facing each other at a distance of twenty meters, Austin officially called to start. Because it takes a certain amount of time for a mage to cast a spell, the battle must be spread a certain distance to create time for the spell to be cast.
The tall, thin boy came up and raised a wooden wall in front of him. This is the most common way for mages to fight, first to protect themselves, and then to unleash attack magic to inflict damage.
When the opponent was protecting herself, Joan walked forward more than ten meters without hurrying, and then took out a magic scroll and tore it open.
A huge fire dragon roared out of the scroll, and the wooden wall in front of the tall and thin boy instantly turned to ashes, and the scorching heat made the surrounding students couldn't help but take two steps back.
And the boy opposite Joan was already completely stunned, and the attack magic he was about to cast was completely interrupted, and the huge fire dragon was too shocking for a second-level magician.
When the temperature of the flames burned his face painfully, and the fire dragon was about to swallow the boy in one gulp, a flash of lightning suddenly fell from the sky, scattering the fire dragon in one fell swoop.
Joan won. Austin announced the results directly. As an examiner, he also has the responsibility to ensure the safety of students' lives, and he can't kill or injure a few people in a real combat assessment.
"It's so shameless, you can use the 'fire dragon technique' when you come up, what is it better than that!" Arthur scolded quietly.
"It's just too rogue!" Moral beside Arthur actively echoed, "Big brother, you said that if I don't use the method you taught me and borrow two magic scrolls from Joan, will he borrow me?"
"Please draw the No. 2 student to come to the stage. "Austin has already announced the start of Game 2.
A delicate-looking, petite girl walked into the arena, while her opponent was slow to play.
"It's so lucky, it can't be a bye, right?"
"I'll count to three, and if the other student doesn't come on stage, I'll lose directly, three ......" The Austin Grand Magician had already stretched out his tone and started to count the seconds.
"This one seems to be a bye, big brother, what time are you, and the next one will be on me. Moral kept talking as soon as he was nervous.
“1......”
"Wait, here's it!" said Moral, and Arthur remembered to glance at the lottery in his hand.
When Arthur jumped out, the girl's smile that was full of smiles in the last second instantly turned into an expression of wanting to cry without tears. Since cleaning up Zirao, Arthur has almost become the recognized king of this new generation, and the result against Arthur is undoubtedly defeated.
"Shall I admit defeat on my own initiative?" the girl cried as she looked at Austin, the archmagician.
"Glory needs blood to defend, and when you encounter an enemy stronger than yourself, you retreat, you don't even have the courage to fight, you don't deserve to be called a student of my Blood Yao Academy, and those who take the initiative to admit defeat will be eliminated directly. Austin's loud, majestic voice buzzed in every student's ears.
"I'll fight!" replied the girl, gritting her silver teeth and stretching her face.
"Let's go!"
As soon as Austin's words fell, Arthur's "Wind Technique" was instantly activated, and the person rushed out like a bolt of lightning, and the distance of twenty meters was instantly shortened, and the girl's defensive spell had not even had time to be released, Arthur had already arrived in front of him, and the starfall giant sword smashed into the girl's face with the sound of the wind.
"Ahh
Arthur's sword stopped in mid-air above her head.
"Arthur wins. ”
Arthur bared his teeth at Austin and ran off the stage in a hurry, and it didn't take ten seconds from the time he shot to the time he stepped down.
"And Joan, I think you're more rogues!" Moral muttered under him.
The first two ended very quickly, which made several professors in the audience who usually teach keep shaking their heads, feeling that their magic lessons for more than half a year were all in vain, and Joan and Arthur did not use the fighting style of magicians.
Fortunately, there are only two strange flowers in the magic department, Arthur and Joan, and the two teenagers who compete on stage are normal magicians.
The two of them, one fire and one earth magician, came up and put up a fire shield and an earth shield in front of themselves respectively.
The fire mage began to move quickly, throwing a steady stream of fireballs at his opponents as he moved, interspersed with one or two fast-firing rockets.
Earth mages also move quickly in the field, judging the direction and position of their opponents' movements, stabbing from the ground from time to time, and occasionally throwing a few swamp spells to set traps on the field.
Shooting magic at a distance is the orthodox way of fighting for magicians.
Both of them are second-level magicians, and they are both wary of each other, although you come and go to fight fiercely, it is difficult to distinguish the winner in a short time, I am afraid that only when one of the magic runs out, can you tell the winner or loser.
While the students of the Department of Magic were still flying kites at a distance, the assessment of the martial arts department on the other side had already turned into fists and bayonets......
