After the Silver-Winged Vulture Squad Captain walked down, they went straight to a secluded corridor. Behind a stone pillar in the corridor leaned a cute girl with silver-white hair. Her hair color was the same as the Silver-Winged Vulture Squad Captain's, and even her eyes were a faint pink, very cute.
"Finally found it!"
Asta was a bit excited. He had finally found the prettiest girl in this exam hall. So she had been hiding behind the stone pillar all along. If the Silver-Winged Vulture Squad Captain hadn't suddenly walked down, he really wouldn't have noticed. However, it was unknown what the Silver-Winged Vulture Squad Captain said to the girl, but soon the girl withdrew from the exam hall.
This made Asta somewhat regretful. After all, the best match for a dashing, spirited youth is always the various fairy-like beauties!
"Alright, now proceeding to the second round, Mana Test!"
"There are no fancy rules for this round; you just need to strike the wall in front of you with your most powerful magic!"
After the Golden Dawn Squad Captain finished the announcement, a wall immediately shot up in front of every youth. Then, Asta continued to keep his eyes closed, arms crossed... although he had a certain amount of Chakra, he didn't yet have the ability to strike a wall from a distance.
"Second round, Mana Manipulation Test!"
"A piece of paper with a target drawn on it is enough to show your level!"
After the Golden Dawn Squad Captain finished, Asta continued to cross his arms with a dark face. He was considering whether to use his powerful lung capacity to blow the paper into mid-air like the others first? Finally, he thought better of it and gave up!
"He's still not moving. Does he want to give up?"
"So that talk from earlier was just bluffing?"
The surrounding youths whispered. The various captains on the second-floor corridor, while selecting talent, also occasionally watched Asta. After all, if one had to say who was stealing the show in this exam, it probably wasn't Yuno, who possessed the clover grimoire and performed exceptionally well in all exams, but Asta, who had kept his arms crossed from the moment he entered until now...
"Third round, Creation Magic Test!"
Asta's face darkened even more. Damn it, is this never going to end!
"Fourth round, Evolution Magic Test!"
Veins were already bulging on Asta's neck, and the Black Bulls Squad Captain, who had been closely watching Asta, felt the muscles in his face stiffen. Where was the promised aura of a powerhouse? Was he just going to stand there flatly until the exam ended?
"I originally had some expectations, but now it seems it really was just grandstanding."
The Verdant Mantis Squad Captain laughed.
"I really want to give him a countdown to his life."
The Black Bulls Squad Captain said with dissatisfaction, biting on a cigarette.
"Now proceeding to the final exam, Combat Duel!"
After the Golden Dawn Squad Captain finished, the Crimson Lion King Squad Captain couldn't wait and stood up.
"What could be cooler in this world than magic flying all over the sky? Let the battle begin! Two people per group, until one side is defeated or surrenders!"
The Crimson Lion King Squad Captain said passionately. He was looking forward to a battle in this exam that would shock them all!
"In addition, our staff who know recovery magic are on standby at any time, so everyone can go all out!"
With the addition from the Golden Dawn Squad Captain, the curtain of battle was raised!
All the boys and girls were calculating in their minds, because the opponent for this battle was chosen by themselves, not by drawing lots or assignment. This tested not only strength but also judgment. After all, if you found an opponent who was too strong, wouldn't you just become a foil?
"Oh my god, who should I look for!"
Most of the examinees were already panicking because they were all strangers, and no one knew anyone else's background. Many examinees were already regretting it; if they had known there would be this exam, they should have been observing other people's mana while giving their all in the exams.
However, they still had some impressions of the people who performed too prominently, such as Yuno and some nobles with powerful mana. As long as they avoided these people, it would be fine!
Many examinees had already started to divide who were the people who absolutely could not be provoked, and who were the people they could try to take on.
"Hahaha! These idiots, are they only just now getting anxious?"
Sekai was now as triumphant as a general who had won a battle. He really wanted to state his strategy and then accept the worship of the crowd. From the beginning, he had searched for the weak based on the number of Demon-Repelling Birds, and finally found Asta, who was surrounded by the most Demon-Repelling Birds in the whole venue. Although Asta acted very mysterious, through the subsequent exams, he could almost conclude that Asta didn't have a bit of mana. Was there a second foil like this in the whole venue?
Sekai walked to Asta's side, put his hand on Asta's shoulder, and then said condescendingly: "You must be worried because you can't find an opponent, right? Then let me be it!"
Asta glanced at Sekai, who was acting like "if I don't go to hell, who will," and patted his clothes with a look of disgust. "Get lost! You bronze-level white lotus bitch, if you don't want to join the Magic Knight Squad, don't drag me into it!"
