The assistant examiner looked at the time and announced loudly, “The exam is almost over. The ‘Fire Dragon’ transport will arrive shortly, and we’ll return to Faye City.”
Hearing that, Mo heaved a sigh of relief and smiled.
He would be in first place in this official magister exam, after all.
By then, his name would circulate throughout the city!
How did his father become a legendary tier-four magister?
Was the level of a tier-four magister very high?
It was not the highest tier in the world.
The reason why Wu became a legend was that he was always number one in everything he did.
First place in the official magister exam!
Top of the tier-two magister assessment!
Among the tier-four magisters in Faye City, Wu ranked first as well!
“No one can surpass me, nor anyone can possibly surpass me!” Mo said to himself.
Cass stepped forward to conclude.
“From today onwards, you are all official magisters.
“When you return to the City of Faye, the Magister Association will issue your bronze magister medals within three days. Remember to collect them.
“Remember! Hunting vicious beasts is a magister’s honor and the cornerstone of protecting our homeland!
“The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. I hope that all of you can become stronger and stronger on the path as a magister.
“And one day, you might reach the peak and become the first-ever tier-nine magister in the world!”
Cass’s impassioned speech stirred up the apprentice magisters as they clenched their fists emotionally.
Tier-nine magister.
A distant dream!
However, who would not want to stand at the peak and become the first tier-nine magister in the world?
A tier-nine magister would be able to turn the tide and sweep away all the vicious beasts in the world.
That would be a legend that would be recorded in human history eternally!
Not only were there no tier-nine magister in the Human Faction, but there were also no God-level vicious beasts on the other side.
Once a god-level existence appeared on either side, the scales of victory would tilt.
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
A thunderous noise came from the station.
The ‘Fire Dragon’ had arrived.
“Alright, as the exam is almost over, and there should be no one left anyway. We shall set off.”
The assistant examiners prepared to organize everyone to board the transport vehicle.
“Wait, the exam has not ended yet!”
“Wait a while more!”
Everyone could not disobey the chief examiner.
Besides, the exam was not over yet.
“By this hour, it’s impossible for anyone else to return.”
“That’s right. Those who could come back would have returned long ago.”
“Dammit! I want to leave this damn place as soon as possible!”
No one believed that anyone would come back at this time.
Those who had not appeared at the station by now were most likely dead.
“Bastard lecher. I don’t believe you’ll die so easily.”
Hika appeared calm on the surface while she clenched her fists subconsciously.
She felt uneasy.
Although Austin could kill a mid-level beast, the Armored Raging Bear, he might be no match to a high-level beast.
Hika was worried that Austin would encounter the injured high-level beast.
“Ugh, why should I even be worried?
“Yes, I probably want to recruit him. That must be it!”
Hika found an excuse to tell herself.
Time gradually passed.
The time was almost up.
“Are they dead after all?”
Hika’s eyes dimmed, and she felt inexplicably stifled.
The strong might not necessarily survive by default.
In the past, it was not too rare for powerful seeded magisters to lose their lives in the Vicious Beast Town.
“Let’s go…”
Hika turned around disappointedly.
At this moment, someone exclaimed, “Someone’s coming!”
Hika turned around in surprise and saw a cloud of dust rising from the end of the street.
A man and a woman were rushing over at the speed of a cheetah.
A few seconds ago, they were still at the end of the street. In just a few blinks of the eye, they had already reached the transport station.
“Did we make it in time?”
Austin asked hurriedly.
Hika was about to reply when she remembered that she was a superior level-four magister who should remain reserved.
Thus, she opened her bright red mouth but closed it again.
The assistant examiner who was in charge of tabulating the results took a look at the time and nodded, “You’re on time.”
Austin breathed a sigh of relief.
“That’s good, that’s good…”
Catherine gasped, her youthful figure outlined by her combat uniform.
She rolled her eyes at Austin and complained, “Brother, it’s all your fault. You insisted on hunting that high-level beast and almost made us late.”
Austin laughed and said, “It’s because that Storm Beast is too careful and fast.”
“But it’s not so bad. We made it, didn’t we?”
The magisters nearby laughed.
The assistant examiner laughed as well.
The few chief examiners did not laugh. Instead, they looked at each other in confusion.
They knew that the injured high-level beast was the Storm Beast.
But the problem was… how did Austin know?
The chief examiners did not reveal any information about the high-level vicious beast.
Logically speaking, as long as they did not encounter the Storm Beast, they would not know the name of that high-level beast.
“Come on, what are you bragging about? Hunting a high-level vicious beast?”
“I think the two of you combined wouldn’t even be enough to fill the gaps between the teeth of a high-level vicious beast.”
“Let alone a high-level vicious beast. If you could kill a mid-level vicious beast, I would follow your surname!”
“If your results are better than mine, I’ll call you Daddy immediately!”
“Come on, let’s see how many low-level beasts you have hunted down.”
Some thought that Austin and Catherine were pretentious, so they began taunting them.
“Just clowns.”
Mo crossed his arms and smiled disdainfully.
He did not believe that those two would be able to challenge his first place!
The assistant examiner said, “Please present your tracking devices.”
Austin glanced at them, his lips curling in contempt.
“You are killing me. I don’t have sons like you, but I still have to show the examiner to calculate our results.
“Catherine.”
“I know, brother. They’re all in the bag.”
Catherine picked up her backpack and poured it on the table.
Indeed, everyone else pulled out the tracking devices.
She poured them out instead.
The tracking devices rushed onto the table and piled up into a small mountain!
The impact was like an avalanche or a tsunami, and it was shocking.
Everyone went silent!
Absolute silence!
Everyone else was stunned.
Catherine scratched the back of her head and smiled shyly. She said to the dumbfounded assistant examiner, “My brother and I were too busy hunting to remember how many tracking devices there were. Please count them.”
