Whoosh.
Three magicians in white mantle ca out of the evaluation center and led all the applicants to the place where the exam would take place, the underground arena.
Evan went with the others. He was still thinking about what had happened during the test. At that mont all his thoughts were focused only on it.
Slowly the group of hundreds of students approached the underground arena. On their way, they passed through the outer corridors of the Academy. Evan's thoughts were occupied with other things, but the other newbie magicians were extrely surprised.
The size and architecture were astounding. "The Last Moon" had definitely invested a trendous amount of resources to look so majestic.
The group made their way down the wide staircase, the descent taking a few minutes. At the end of the path were massive, jade gates.
A woman approached it, put her hand on it, and the gate opened. At that mont, every student could see what the Academy's underground arena looked like.
It was similar to the arena in Mossy Vulture, only bigger and more luxurious. This arena was not only used for exams during recruitnt, but also for fights between students and various tournants.
"The Last Moon" encouraged resolving conflicts by force, but everything had to be official and a non-lethal duel only. If there was a disagreent between two students, they could go to the arena at any ti and sort things out.
Moreover, fights were often held with bets by both students and spectators, if the fight was between strong or popular students. All in all, the arena was an extrely important and useful place in the Academy.
Three magicians in white mantles only brought the challengers to the arena, but they were not going to conduct the exam. They told everyone to wait and the next mont they were in the stands. As ti passed, more and more people appeared in the stands and at that mont, Evan finally broke away from his thoughts.
.
In fact, all of these people were teachers and they weren't here for the spectacle. They were looking for capable students and the entrance exam was the best place to do that. Right now, each student, depending on his or her results, would beco either an "Outer student" or an "Inner student".
Step. Step. Step.
After a while, a man in a gray mantle with long white hair entered the arena, it was Draven Heliot. He calmly examined each of the newbie magicians and slowly said.
"The rules are simple, whoever holds out against for ten seconds becos an "Inner student".
After his words, a wave of amazent rose among the students and small whispers began. It might seem that ten seconds was very little ti and everyone could do it, but it wasn't that simple.
Evan thought to himself.
anwhile the first contestant ca out against Draven. He was a tall fellow, dressed in luxurious clothes, which ant he ca from a noble family.
It was obvious from his face that he was confident and naturally, he was going to beco an "Inner student".
The lad waited for a command, but Draven simply said: "Attack, once you attack, ti will go."
The young man nodded and the next mont attacked Draven. He was a "Creator", and knew the spells of Creation Magic, so instantly fireballs appeared above his head that rushed towards the examiner.
The young man knew that it was unlikely to do Draven any harm, but his goal was not to win, but to last only ten seconds.
Bam.
. Evan thought to himself as he watched Draven knock out the newbie magician with a single blow.
Draven's movents were lightning fast. The mont the fireballs had not yet ford he instantly reached the young man and ended their battle with one powerful blow to the stomach.
The fight lasted about half a second. Nevertheless, it was enough for the magicians in the stands to draw certain conclusions for themselves.
The first contestant perford badly, half a second was a real sha. Although on the other hand Draven didn't hold back in the slightest, he was hitting hard enough to make the students faint with a single blow.
Whoosh.
Imdiately after Draven's punch, several people appeared who quickly carried the first challenger away. He was in no danger and would be quickly brought to his senses.
"Next." Draven said calmly. He didn't want to spend too much ti on this exam. There were plenty of applicants, but besides the exam, there were still lists to be made and an entrance ceremony to be prepared.
It didn't take long to wait for the next volunteer. Everyone wanted to beco an "Inner student" and show the best of themselves in order to get to the strongest teachers.
Strangely enough, the second candidate was Katlyn van Erden. She had always been confident in her abilities and especially now. During her checkup, she`d learned that her Class is "Creator" and her "Warp" is purple. This greatly increased her already considerable self-confidence.
But, unlike the first challenger, she did not attack. This exam was not only a test of strength, but also of strategy. She only had to hold out for a few seconds, which ant that defense was the best option for her.
Draven asured the girl with a calm gaze and said quietly: "You`ve decided to wait for to strike? Suit yourself."
Whoosh.
Draven stepped forward and turned into a blurry silhouette. He was instantly in front of the girl and delivered a swift kick to the stomach.
Katlyn hadn't expected Draven's attack to be so swift, but she had ti to react.
Whoosh.
The girl bounced to the side, but suddenly her world was turned upside down. Seeing that Katlyn had dodged his punch, Draven struck again. He attacked the girl with his other foot and the force of the blow sent her flying several ters away. Katlyn's ribs were broken and she lost consciousness.
"Two seconds, not so bad, next." Draven said unemotionally.
Evan thought to himself,
