Entrance of Loran Academy, heavy traffic.

The day of the actual combat drill was finally here.

The students who passed the selection test gathered at the academy. They will be led by the teacher to Black Lake Forest in the southern part of Lombard Kingdom to participate in the exciting and stimulating actual combat drill.

Black Lake Forest was one of the few large jungles in Lombard Kingdom. Among them, demonic beasts ran rampant and it was full of dangers. Although there werent any particularly high-level demonic beasts, the cold-blooded hunters who hid in the dark could easily kill anyone who got too complacent.

According to rumors, there was a strange lake in the deepest part of the forest. The lake was a horrifying black and emitted a deadly miasma. It was difficult for normal people to reach, but it was a good place for demonic beasts to live. It was called Black Lake and the forest was hereby called Black Lake Forest.

The mission for this actual combat drill was to go to the deepest part of Black Lake Forest, find the Jackalwere camp, kill the leader and completely eliminate this pack of cunning Jackalwere!

A while ago, this group of Jackalwere who should have stayed in the forest suddenly rushed out of Black Lake Forest to attack nearby villages, then they fled back to the depths of the forest to hide. They were ferocious and despicable, they burned and looted, many innocent villagers have suffered. In order to prevent the tragedy from happening again, they must be completely eliminated!

Originally, this kind of work should have been left to the Holy Light Church and the kingdoms army. However, the Holy Light Church seems to have encountered sothing troubleso recently, so mbers of the church have been rushing to the south. They did not have the manpower to take care of such trivial matters. If one wanted to mobilize the army, the procedure was very complicated. It must be approved at various levels and leaders would have to be found. When the order is finally given, who knows how many more people would die.

Therefore, the principal of Loran Academy volunteered to take over this job that no one wanted to do. They would send students to hunt the Jackalweres, eradicate the problem at the root, and at the sa ti conduct the actual combat drill, killing two birds with one stone.

Lets go! under Teacher Woos guidance, the grandiose hunting team set off.

Loran Academy was one of the best academy in Eileen. They hired more than 10 carriages, so were for students to ride on, and the others pulled the luggage. It could even be said that it was rich and overbearing. If you looked from far away, soone may even think that a large-scale rcenary group was carrying out an expedition.

There were more than 20 students participating in the actual combat drill, as well as attendants, school workers, and teachers. In addition to Woos, the academy also sent a number of teachers to accompany for protection, the weakest being an advanced sixth-level magician, there were even a few muscular warriors

They were teachers from the warrior departnt, each carrying a giant weapon bigger than themselves. They were tough and stocky, had tanned skin and their fists were larger than sandbags. They looked very reliable.

However, students couldnt relax their vigilance.

During last years actual combat drill, Loran Academys Magic Departnt students tead up to capture a fifth-level demonic beast the Fla Boar, which was widely circulated in the academy. The adult Fla Boar is very large, almost as big as a house. Ordinary magical attacks have no effect on it. If you dont work together and properly cooperate with each other, it was absolutely impossible for the students who had an average of second-level magic.

The students paid a painful price to catch the Fla Boar. They also had a party of around 20 students, there were 9 minor injuries, 3 serious injuries, and one of them even beca disabled because of his injuries and could no longer accumulate magic, forfeiting the possibility of becoming a magician.

At that ti, the protection from the academy was not inferior to todays, it was also a grandiose squad, but after all, it was an accident. The teachers will try their best to protect the safety of the students, but if it is not a matter of life and death, the teachers will never rashly intervene during a battle.

This ti, Teacher Woos said more frankly.

No one can protect you in a real battle! Your life is your own, you control it! If you dont want to die, show so spirit!

Only by walking on the edge of life and death can these magical rookies really grow into a real magician! Risk and sacrifice are necessary.

There might be cowardly students who believe that as long as they are cautious and careful, he doesnt have to work hard and will be able to tag along and can easily pass the actual combat drill, but thats wrong, very wrong!

Why did the students risk injuries and danger to catch the Fla Boar in the actual combat drill last year? Were they all lunatics who were not afraid of death? No, because that was the test they had to complete!

The actual combat drill was not a trip for fun, it was a graded test!

The accompanying teachers were not only responsible for protecting the safety of the students, they also had another more important task to grade the overall performance of the students during the actual combat drill!

From the instant the student gets onto the carriage, the actual combat drill has officially started

Throughout the entire trip, the teachers will record the performance of each student: Such as, whether or not they had a quick enough response ti to an ergency, whether or not they cooperated with a team, whether or not they had a leadership temperant, etc

After the actual combat drill, each student will receive a final score, which was divided into five levels: A, B, C, D, and E. There was also a unique S-level special evaluation, which was specially used to recognize students with outstanding performance.

Students who receive an A level or higher evaluation will undoubtedly beco the focus of the teachers from then on. They will get more resources and grow faster than others! Moreover, only students with a grade A or above can qualify for the Academy Tournant in the second half of the year!

In contrast, an evaluation below D level represents a failure, obtaining a D is tantamount to being told you may not have the innate gift and talents necessary to beco a great magician, it is better to give up early.

As for E level? A student who gets E is equivalent to getting a notice of withdrawal consciously scrambling ho is the only way out.

It was in order to get a higher rating that last years students attacked the Fla Boar with their lives on the line. Whoever was afraid of death and hid at the rear, would likely get an E-level evaluation and then be expelled from the academy!

Even if they knew perfectly well that their life might be in danger, they still have to face it head on!

Rumble.the carriage moved slowly.

On the road, there was no laughter in the carriage carrying the students. The students who were full of curiosity now had to retract their playful attitudes and seriously confront the actual combat drill.

If they get an E-level, their life would be all over It would be better to die in Black Lake Forest!

The actual combat drill, so were delighted and so were worried, of course there was also soone who was completely unenthusiastic

Lin Xiao, youre ssing around! The actual combat drill isnt a trip to have fun, whyd you bring your maid? Before they left, Woos had angrily questioned Lin Xiao.

Because of the existence of the slave contract, Elena must stay by Lin Xiaos side at all tis, otherwise she will suffer from the rebound and die, so they must participate together. At first, Woos strongly disagreed. Although Elena was qualified to be a maid, Woos thought that she did not understand magic and was just an ordinary girl. She was a big burden, so it was too dangerous for her to co along.

But later, Teacher Woos compromised.

Its just a re Jackalwere, an inferior demonic beast, wheres the danger?

When she said that, Elena was expressionless and looked indifferent, as if saying sothing that was natural. Even Woos was shocked by her overbearing attitude and carelessly let her get on the carriage.

I guess thats right, in the eyes of the Demon King, any demonic beasts were inferior, there was nothing wrong with what Elena said.

Hunting Jackalwere, how boring on the road, Lin Xiao was sulky.

As an otaku, participating in outside events were life-threatening. If it was not because the score of the actual combat drill directly determined whether he could participate in the academy tournant in the second half of the year, he would be too lazy to co.

In order to beco a reserve hero, he must obediently do what he is told

However, his current magic level was already interdiate fourth-level, he also mastered the chantless instant cast skill. Lin Xiaos combat power alone may be higher than all of the rookies at Loran Academy. To say sothing irresponsible, he alone was enough to destroy the entire pack of Jackalweres and easily get the S-level score.

At this very mont, Lin Xiao was worrying about sothing else the duel with Caesar!

After the actual combat drill, he must accept Caesars challenge and compete with Caesar in the duel. Although there was no suspense in winning or losing, as long as he was willing to win, but things were not that simple.

He could not win this duel. If he won, he will surpass Caesar, be elected as the hero, and then be used as cannon fodder on the battlefield! That would be a tragic life that he could never tolerate!

At the sa ti he could not lose. The defeated dog would lose all dignity and credit, and he would lose the necessary condition to beco a reserve hero. As a result, his dream of eating and dying would be completely shattered.

It was a delicate situation.

Ahhhh, its so annoying, I cant win or lose. What should I do? Lin Xiao was about to collapse.

In the end, its all Elenas fault! If she didnt open her mouth and speak conceited nonsense to ridicule Caesar, then Lin Xiao wouldnt be worrying about a duel.

However, the main culprit did not have the slightest bit of conscience Elena was leaned against the side of the carriage and sitting quietly, holding her arms and shrinking her body into the gray burqa, staring at the trees that kept retreating on both sides. Her quiet expression made one unable to disturb her.

Among all the students, only Lin Xiao was carefree enough to bring a beautiful servant, so Woos was rciful and allowed them to ride a small carriage by themselves.

Eh? Elena, who was looking at the scenery, noticed Lin Xiaos resentful gaze. She wrinkled her brows and asked, Do you need sothing?

Sighits useless to complain now anyways.

Is it about the duel? Elena seed to feel sowhat guilty regarding the incident and unconsciously removed her gaze. You seem to care about that human.

The carriage in front of them, Elenas eyes fell on a handso blond boy.

That teenager and the other students were cramd into the comparatively larger carriage in front of them, he didnt feel anything like royalty, only the wide-bladed sword hanging from his waist was particularly eye-catching.

Oh, youre talking about Caesar. I think hes pretty amazing.

Why? Elena asked.

I think hell definitely beco a hero!

Eh?
