Creation System: Reborn As A Fantasy Worldsmith
Chapter 310 A Lot Of Pressure
Chapter 310 A Lot Of Pressure
The taller male teacher who was smiling stepped forward, "Everyone, quiet down. Sir Rerth will now announce the most important part of this exam."
All the students quickly finished their conversations and listened intently to what Rerth had to say.
"This exam is serious," he said in a very stern tone. "The academy will not interfere with this grave whatsoever, so all of you will have to face your own consequences. We know not what challenges this graveyard holds, that is up to you to figure out and overcome."
As he spoke, everyone began to get more serious. They began to understand the severity of this exam.
"Small injuries, to maybe even death. That is what you all can expect... so take it seriously. If it comes to that, then we will try our best to help, but we cannot guarantee anything. It is all in your hands, as the future stars of the world."
Many let out long breaths. Rerth's words weren't light.
"On top of that... the pressure of the three kingdoms is on your shoulders alone."
'This is that big of a deal?' Lyrian mused as other kids had surprised expressions. Others, however, were stone-faced.
"Everyone is going to be looking at how you do, and everyone is going to be curious about Orion's grave. What secrets, inheritance, relics, and power did he leave behind? That great mage... what knowledge did he know? What did he want in his grave? Everyone wants to know, and it is up to you all to give them the answers!"
Rerth yelled, finishing off his words. After a few seconds of silence, the crowd of students erupted into an exhilarated roar.
Those words from Rerth were enough to hype them up.
"Hell yeah! Let's conquer this damn place and show the world what the students of Anaviotis can do!"
"I will show Orion's inheritance to everyone!"
After this, Rerth explained some basic rules. In the end, he dismissed the students,
"The exam will begin today at 5 pm. Make sure you are there... if you don't show up, it will be immediately expulsion no matter who you are."
That last line was clearly directed to the higher-status kids, who tended to slack off because of that.
Lyrian looked around for a moment and noticed that not a single kid was leaving.
"They seemed determined to stay here until the exam begins..." Lyrian grumbled as Leon and Alten nodded in agreement.
"Then, let's do some training," Lyrian smirked, "Alten, Leon... show me what you two got."
Alten was a bit surprised, "What!?" He laughed.
Leon smirked, retorting, "Sure."
Most of the kids heard this, and couldn't help but be interested. Seeing an MVP fight wasn't a small deal.
It was something that everyone wanted to witness to gauge their own strength.
This meant that both Godfrey and Linus were also interested.
"But, I won't fight you two versus one," Leon said firmly, "Even if you can take us, I want a fair duel."
"That's fine by me. It's not like we are in a time crunch anyway. Plus, that will allow me to see where you both are in terms of power better."
Lyrian was interested in this, as he knew he was going to be teaming up with these two in the exam.
'I need them to be strong enough to help me. Even if they are my friends, I refuse to carry around dead weight.'
The three made their way over to one of the arenas, as the crowd turned to look at them.
Jackson was the first to follow them there. "I want to watch!" He looked thrilled.
With his first move, others also began to gather around the arena. Before long, everyone had made their way there.
Drake and Linus stood at the front of the groups. Drake crossed his arms and looked ahead with a smile on his face.
Linus looked to the side nonchalantly, seemingly thinking of something else.
Alten and Lyrian hopped onto the platform and made their way to opposite sides.
"Graze my shirt..." Lyrian said.
Alten showed a curious expression, as Lyrian clarified, "If you graze my shirt with your arrow, you will pass my test."
"Ah... so you are actually giving me a test huh?" Alten joked back.
As Lyrian said this, a few kids in the crowd couldn't help but exclaim their disbelief.
One kid let out a laugh. "He wants him to actually land a hit!? That is far too much to ask." He shook his head.
"Alten is from my class... last time I sparred with him over 3 months ago, he was way too weak."
He paused, hesitant to utter his next words.
"I wouldn't be able to touch an MVP in my entire life, so to think he can... it's an optimistic dream."
Another kid teased, "Hey... maybe he's grown stronger in these past months."
"Even still..." This kid looked at Lyrian. He had heard the rumors of him beating Drake, but after all, those claims were deemed as only rumors by everyone.
Still, who knew if it was true or not. Nonetheless, Lyrian was a scary individual.
Most were in doubt. Lyrian looked at them and then back at Alten. "You hear them? They don't think you can do it. What do you say?"
At this moment, Lyrian was fully expecting Alten to joke and say that he couldn't, but he would try.
That's what he was used to Alten saying... it was his personality. However, Lyrian stood corrected.
"The chance I pass this... is 100%. I guarantee it, Lyrian. I will touch you with my golden arrow no matter what."
As he said this, Lyrian got slightly excited. Alten's words were convincing, and the fact that all the odds stood against him made it even more hype.
"Are you sure you are fast enough?" Lyrian quipped.
"Are you sure that speed is not the deciding factor in this duel?" Alten smirked back.
'What? Is speed not the deciding factor? Then what is?' Lyrian was intrigued to see what Alten would pull out of his sleeve.
"Get ready..." Leon said as the crowd held their breath, "Begin!"
