The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World

Chapter 273 273 - Bet

Pressure was the thing which separated the greats and the ones who were average.

Those who can handle it will become great and those who can't will always be inferior to those who can.

Learning that pressure is a good thing when improving is also extremely important to reach the apex of strength.

Pressure is something that can bring you up, but it can also bring just as fast, there's simply no doubt about that which is why you need to find a way to harness it.

That's the final goal, harnessing the pressure, and using it for yourself to become the best version of yourself and that's why Lady Sophia was always making sure that they would be feeling as much pressure as possible.

As minutes passed by, Aiden noticed that people were starting to crumble and others were starting to rise, creating a clear contrast between the two, which was extremely nice to watch from an outside perspective.

Aiden obviously didn't feel any pressure as he had already learned the skill and had qualified for the final part of the entrance exam which was the sparring between two students.

And, truth be told, Aiden was hoping that he would be fighting one of those entitled brats as he would be able to make them understand that they aren't that special at all.

'Well someone else that I would like to fight right now would be that guard who was named Jack, that way I could kill him without much problem,' Aiden thought with a smile.

And he knew that killing people would now be useful for him as his gloves would be able to evolve if he killed a certain number of people which was honestly great, well... from Aiden's point of view.

The people who will be getting murdered probably wouldn't agree with that statement.

"Alright, it's now time for you to show me if you have learned the spell or not, get in a horizontal line facing me," Lady Sophia demanded as she noticed that everyone listened to her without the slightest complaint.

it seemed that everyone remembered when she had shouted out of nowhere at the start of this part of the entrance exam.

Then, people who were on Aiden's right, slowly started to concentrate as they knew that if they failed it would be the end for them.

All of them didn't have a system like Aiden after all.

Aiden noticed that some of the participants were sweating a lot as it was showing on their foreheads.

Then, Lady Sophia started heading to those who were on the extremities of that line which contained at least 50 people who were all extremely nervous except a few.

As she arrived at the extremities, she simply stared at the person waiting for her to show the skill just like she had done with Aiden when the two of them had been alone.

'I guess, it's another tactic to apply pressure,' Aiden said to himself, not surprised at all.

Then, the first person seemed to struggle to create something as everyone noticed that his legs were starting to get out, it seemed that this whole thing was too much for him to handle.

However, Lady Sophia didn't care at all as she stopped looking at him waving her hand which made that person disappear.

"Alright, your turn," she said, once again, looking into that person's eyes without saying another word.

Then, a few seconds passed by, and it seemed that there was some energy that was being summoned around his palm.

'Oh, this one succeeded in the first part of the spell, now what will he do now?' Sophia thought.

She expected people to succeed in the first part of the spell since it wasn't too hard to figure out, however, what came next was the tricky part of this spell.

She knew that not many here would be able to reach the sparring round and that was made on purpose as they only wanted the elites of the elite, this academy wasn't for everyone to join.

Then, after a few seconds, it seemed that this person also didn't succeed in creating anything which meant that he was eliminated as he was teleported out.

***

Lady Sophia was now right in front of Aiden simply looking at him, waiting for him to show the spell.

However, what no one knew was that she already knew that he had learned the spell.

She already knew that he had learned it in under 10 minutes which had impressed her like crazy.

'Alright, I won't waste time, Universal Spell.'

Then, mana started to gather in the palm of his hand and before he heard the beeping sound to ask him what he wanted to create, he had already decided.

'A wand, I'll make a wand again.'

Then, the small object appeared in Aiden's hands.

"Alright, it seems that you are the tenth person to have succeeded," Lady Sophia announced as she continued her testing walking to the next person who was in line.

It seemed that she didn't want to give Aiden too much attention, acting like he was like all the other people who had succeeded in learning the spell in a couple of hours.

***

Everyone had been tested and out of the 50 people who had participated, only 16 of them had succeeded in learning the spell.

However, Lady Sophia didn't seem to mind one bit as she had probably expected such a result.

"Alright, it's now time to do the sparring between you guys," she announced.

Aiden and the others nodded as they already knew that such a thing would be coming their way.

"However, the director didn't explain how the sparring would be working, so I will do it right now."

"The sparring is very important since there will be a lot of eyes on you while doing it. Also, those who lose in the sparring will probably be kicked out of the academy, but there are some rare cases," Lady Sophia explained as she was about to reveal the information which everyone had wanted to know.
