He understood why first envoy was going over the line for a mere disciple. Even if the envoys fought during the recruitment, it will only cause minor problems for the academy however, if the academy came to know that the envoy, for the fear of offending other academies or for some other reason, let a disciple such as this one, then it'll be counted as a crime and they will be heavily punished.
"Wah!!"
Exclaimations of shock resounded in the Colosseum. No one could believe what they were seeing.
"Nice." Vincent almost shouted and couldn't contain his excitement. He didn't believe even he has what it takes to push the rock one feet back. However, precisely this excited him. In his excitement, his body started shining...
105!
This number appeared on the giant rock. Making people even more shocked. The limit of power one could exert for Two-star mages was 100 units. Although, it was normalised. Even so, it was no easy feat to breach this 100 units boundary. However, those who could do this were called 'Unrivalled in the same realm'.
This 'Unrivalled' didn't mean that they were undefeated in their realms. It was only a title that given to those who had surpassed the limit of their realm in terms of power and if they could surpass the limit, then undoubtedly they were genius amongst geniuses.
"Two-star mage, 105 units. Qualified." The supervisor announced, his voice louder than usual.
Everyone's perspective of the bald man changed completely. They understood that he wasn't taking the recruitment lightly but he was just so confident of his strength.
After completing his test, the bald man turned around and walked to his seat without saying anything.
Max was stunned. It seems the feeling he got from him wasn't any illusion. From the crowd, he understood that no one here knew who he was or where he came from.
Quickly it was Miss Flavia's turn. Seeing her Neer almost shouted "Young master, it's that goddess turn." His face was flushed with excitement.
Max also look at her carefully. She always seemed like a goddess and her beauty wasn't any less than Lilly when she dressed herself well.
Seeing many people cheering for her, Max smiled. No matter where, beauties are always appreciated.
Just then Max felt a piercing gaze locked at him. He turned around and saw that Dalton was staring at him with menacing look.
"What's the problem of this guy? Is he really upset about that day?" Max frowned.
He thought that it wasn't anything. After all, he only complemented Miss Flavia because he found her to be very beautiful. And most probably other people would often complement her upon seeing too. Would he go and found trouble with everyone who did so? No right? But apparently he was wrong.
The driver noticed him mumbling with a frown creasing his brows. He following Max's gaze and understood.
He smiled bitterly and said "Young master, some people are too arrogant and won't tolerate if someone even glanced at their woman. There are many people of this type. However now it seems he won't let young master go without finding trouble with you. I hope you will be a little more cautious from now on.''
Max didn't say anything as he was in deep thoughts. Was he going to stop being himself if other party was strong, for the fear of not offending them?
Then he recalled that When he opened his eyes in this world after dying on Earth. After finding out that he was a piece of trash who didn't have any talent but was a son of a Noble, his first thoughts were to avoid trouble that may arise and live a luxurious and comfortable life.
However when he found out that he has a system that could help him become strong and he wasn't the 'piece of trash' he once was, his thinking started changing over time, without him knowing.
When beast tide broke out and he saw people dying around him, he understood that the value of life here was too low. You could die anytime if you aren't strong enough. And after witnessing Lilly's resolve to become stronger to be with him, he also wanted to be strong enough to keep his woman with him.
However, now he had to bow down to some young master even though he wasn't in the wrong?
'No even if I was wrong, I wouldn't back down. If I'm stronger than him, why would I be afraid!' His eyes flashed.
He smirked toward him and focused his gaze on Miss Flavia. He was also onfident in his strength just like that bald man. He could even survive Mina's full strength assault that was no easy feat so he should be stronger than Dalton. He guessed that if Mina was here, she too would be called 'Unrivalled' and her score would have been more than just 105 units.
Dalton saw this and his blood boiled. He gnashed his teeth "This bastard!"
....
Oblivious of their little encounter, Flavia proceeded to the giant rock. She took out a few small metal balls. Her lips moved delicately as she chanted a spell. The shape of metal balls changed to became a spear. She gripped it tightly, inhaled deeply and then threw it at the giant rock with all her strength.
BANG!!
The spear after leaving her hand, picked up speed and before anyone could even blink, it crashed in the middle of the rock. The giant rock trembled but this trembling stop in the next moment. Even then, its trembling was a bit more intense than it was when Dalton punched it.
Flavia stood in her place with a trickle of blood flowing down at the corner of her lips. She had overexerted herself to score higher than Dalton. No matter what she didn't want to lose hope just yet.
93!
"Woah! This girl is fierce despite having such delicate body." A young man commented, however in the next moment he had to duck his head down because he could feel a murderous gaze locked at him just as he said this.
....
The supervisor announced "Two-star mage, 93 units. Qualified."
In the stands, Dalton had an ugly expression but it quickly changed into a smirk 'So you are still resisting because you have some strength, huh?'
Seeing that her result was better than Dalton's, Flavia smiled. However, her smile put many young men present in daze. Even though there was a blood stain at corner of her lips, her smile was still a beautiful spectacle.
She didn't return to her seat beside Dalton, instead she went and sat in front seats and started meditating to replenish her used mana. Dalton calmly watched her without showing any expression.
"It seems it's my turn now." Vincent stood up from his seat and walked toward the arena amidst the loud cheering of audience.
