WIZARD STARTING FROM SHOEING DONKEYS

Chapter 542: Chapter 236: Sword Bearer Assessment (Two-in-One Mega Chapter)_3

Of course, there are special cases, such as the first or second place who are exceptionally strong. If that’s the case, I’m sorry, but the subsequent scoring by the examiners will naturally be lower…

After all, the bar has been set high.

Just then, a slightly miserable voice suddenly rang out!

“Oh no! I’m number one!”

“Silence!”

“Whether you accept it or not, luck is also a part of strength!” the middle-aged Great Knight said in a stern voice.

…

For a moment, everyone couldn’t help but look sympathetically at this unfortunate fellow!

…

After everyone had drawn lots, the middle-aged Great Knight continued, “Now the drawing is complete.”

“There is only one rule for the assessment, the use of disposable sorcery scrolls, Transcendent potions, and special weapons is not allowed.”

“Of course, if you are a scroll maker or a pharmacist by profession, you are allowed to use them, but a separate review will be required after the assessment.”

“Now, everyone follow me.”

After walking down a long corridor, they arrived at a spacious hall with a domed ceiling. At the center of the hall stood a tall, black statue surrounded by iron railings, resembling an indoor arena.

Off to the side were about a dozen people, seemingly staff, with the five in the front dressed in black uniforms similar to noble hunting outfits, holding paper and pen, looking like examiners.

The middle-aged Great Knight approached one of the men, an old man dressed in an earthy yellow Wizard Robe with his hands tucked in wide sleeves, and bowed slightly:

“The assessors have all arrived.”

“Then we’ll trouble Master Matthias now,” he said.

At this moment, the old man opened his eyes, a sharp light flashed through them as he replied, “No trouble at all. It’s Stoneroll School’s turn this year; it’s a good time to see if there are any promising candidates.”

Suddenly, he took his hands out of his sleeves, revealing a short black wand in his right hand. He pointed it towards the statue in the center of the arena and began chanting softly.

Rein looked at the old man in surprise. Even though he was tens of meters away, he could still feel a powerful and condensed wave of Spirit energy.

“Crack!”

But what surprised everyone more was that the shell of the black statue in the center of the arena began to crumble.

It was only then that everyone realized that the two-story-tall giant statue in the center of the arena was not an inanimate object but a living creature.

“Oh no! It’s an Obsidian giant!”

“Is our Sword Bearer assessment really about defeating an Obsidian giant?”

“This is crazy! It’s impossible.”

…

Suddenly, the crowd of assessors was buzzing with whispers.

“Silence!” the middle-aged Great Knight took a deep breath and shouted loudly.

“This year’s Sword Bearer assessment requires surviving under the Obsidian giant for one minute to pass.”

“Even if you don’t last, we hope every assessor gives their all because your performance will be recorded by the panel of examiners.”

The five middle-aged people in black hunting outfits began swiftly jotting down notes with their feather pens.

This immediately quieted down everyone present.

“Number one!” the middle-aged Great Knight shouted loudly.

“Number one! Who is number one, come up immediately!”

After shouting again, a knight holding a sword and shield, with a gloomy face, walked forward.

He had intended to give up, but seeing other department heads of the empire present, he decided to try his luck; even if he couldn’t join the Sword Bearers, other special departments might accept him.

He moved cautiously around the Obsidian giant from a distance.

The Obsidian giant looked at him and raised its hands high. Just as he was puzzled about what the opponent was intending to do, suddenly, a wave of earth-based energy came through, and a circular stone appeared out of thin air in the hands of the Obsidian giant.

“Swoosh!”

A blur flashed by, and the stone shot towards the young man with the sword and shield like a cannonball.

In that instant, the young man went pale, rolled to the side just in time to narrowly evade the Obsidian giant’s strike, but the splinters of stone still made him dusty and battered!

The key point was, this was just the beginning. The Obsidian giant’s hands continuously produced circular rocks, hurling them at the young man!

“Boom!”

Finally, the young man could not dodge in time and had to block with his shield, only to be blown away on the spot!

“Duration eighteen seconds, not qualified!” one of the staff shouted.

Meanwhile, the five examiners were fervently recording something.

The injured young man with the sword and shield was immediately taken aside for treatment by a professional physician.

“Next up! Number two!” the middle-aged Great Knight looked over the crowd and called out sternly.

Seeing the giant size but swift response of the Obsidian giant, everyone looked at Rein approaching it as though he was marching to his death.

…

Facing the six-meter-tall, several-tons-heavy Obsidian giant, Rein didn’t show any fear; in fact, he felt a thrill of excitement.

Having faced such large Transcendent creatures before, Rein had slain beasts like the nearshore plesiosaur and the scaly armored turtle before he even became a Great Knight.

“Give it your all, even if you don’t pass, your performance will still be recorded,” the middle-aged Great Knight said, as usual, to Rein.

Rein nodded.

Originally, Rein had thought about holding back a bit, but now that he was the second one to take the assessment, this….
