The bronze door suddenly flashed with energy as the students, teachers, and parents discussed. It was a sign that someone was about to exit a Mystic Realm.
“That’s the door to a level 8 hard Mystic Realm.”
Most audience members turned to look at the bronze door in the middle of the first row when they heard the audience member’s words.
A moment later, a tall and slender bespectacled male student exited his realm excitedly. Judging from his expression, he was satisfied with his performance.
“Hahaha, he’s a Python City’s Number Eighteen High student!”
A chubby male teacher danced in excitement as if the student who had just exited the Mystic Realm was the entrance exams’ top scorer.
“He was only in a level 8 hard realm. Still, it’s a little difficult for him to score well.”
“Let’s wait and see. Our school’s students have not entered one of the top 100 institutes over the past ten years. It’s still an honor for one of our students to be the first to exit a Mystic Realm.”
…
The other school teachers also started to discuss the scene before them.
Then other examinees walked out of the level 8 bronze doors in the first row, while some occasionally exited the level 9 bronze doors in the second row. However, there was no movement from the level 10 bronze doors in the third row.
“When will the footage return? What’s going on inside the level 10 Mystic Realms?”
“Yeah, did the examinees encounter something horrific?”
“All this suspense is making me anxious!”
…
More teachers and parents became anxious since the sky and screen were still dark. At that moment, an unusually excited voice echoed from the audience, “Wow, one of the bronze doors in the third row is flashing!”
The audience member’s shouts jolted everyone’s hearts. They wanted to see who would be the first examinee to complete the level 10 Mystic Realm exam.
Even if it were just a straightforward level 10 test, the first person to complete it would achieve excellent results.
“Whoa, someone just exited a level 10 hell Mystic Realm!”
“D-Did you just say the level 10 hell realm?! Is there anyone else in there besides Moss?!”
“I-I don’t think so.”
…
The audience was in an uproar when a handsome student smilingly exited the bronze door.
“I-It’s Moss!”
The audience was excited to see Moss exiting his Mystic Realm.
“He completed his exams so quickly?!”
“T-That’s unbelievable!”
“Moss handled the level 10 hell Mystic Realm alone! I can’t seem to imagine how he did it!”
“How amazing. Nothing can stop Moss!”
…
Moss’s performance amazed many, while some were skeptical.
“Just because he came out of his Mystic Realm does not mean he completed all the tests. He could’ve used his spatial portal to quit for all we know.”
“That’s highly possible.”
“That can’t be. Considering Moss’s demeanor when he entered the Mystic Realm, he didn’t seem to have any intentions of using his spatial portal.”
Moss’s supporters were displeased when they heard some people’s doubts. Moss’s supporters immediately retorted.
“So what if he used his portal? He still took a long while to come out of the Mystic Realm. Moss’s scores should be high, considering the number of beasts in the level 10 hell Mystic Realm.”
“Yeah, everyone knows how capable Moss is!”
…
Still, the doubters did not show signs of backing down.
“How do you know if he’s been killing the beasts or not?”
“Time goes on even if he’s resting. The organizing committee will score Moss based on the number and quality of beasts he kills per minute and the Mystic Realm boss.”
…
Both sides debated endlessly when the screens lit up, showing the examinees in the Mystic Realms.
The Mystic Realm’s emergency system had recorded the corresponding footage during the blackout. The screens replayed past clips of the examinees’ performances in the Mystic Realm.
“Look, that’s the footage of Moss’s performance during his third test!”
“D*mn, there are so many beasts in his area. I-I can’t watch! I have a phobia of scorpions!”
“There’s so much blood! It’s like the God of death has possessed me!”
…
Most doubters kept their mouths shut as they watched Moss’s performance during his third test. The doubters became believers when Moss’s performance during his fourth test appeared on the screen.
In the end, they witnessed Moss killing the Mystic Realm boss, and all those who had doubted Moss completely changed their opinions.
“Moss’s stamina is insane. I don’t think I’ve noticed it.”
“Moss cleared the level 10 hell Mystic Realm at breakneck speed! Most chose the level 10 easy realms, yet they’re still in there!”
“With such speed, Moss should rank highly throughout the country, right?”
…
At that moment, Moss was like a superhero and the brightest star in the students’ hearts. The teachers and the audience also excitedly discussed his performance, but the most joyful ones were White Deer High’s students and teachers. They could not help but stand up and wave their hands in celebration.
At that moment, Moss represented not only the second-year students but also White Deer High.
“Na’er, how do you think Moss will rank throughout the country?” Church, White Deer High’s physical education teacher, asked expectantly.
The other White Deer High teachers heard this and looked over curiously. They also wanted to know how high Moss would rank in the country.
Na’er noticed everyone’s expectant gazes. Although he had a rough idea, he would not speak rashly since Elroy and Michaels were waiting for his reply.
He immediately looked at Elroy and saw the look he gave. He instantly understood Elroy’s thoughts, so he respectfully asked Michaels, “Director Michaels, you are well informed. What do you think of Moss’s current performance?”
At that point, Michaels was overjoyed. However, he was surprised when he heard Na’er’s question.
“That Moss kid is quite capable, Na’er. I would like to help him in the future if I have the chance,” then he cleared his throat and continued, “Although this is the first appearance of the level 10 exams, and there are no standard references to use, Moss’s speed and completion rate rivals those who chose the level 9 Mystic Realms.
“Based on my many years of experience, if the exams end now, Moss’s performance would guarantee that he would be the top scorer. He also has a chance to make it to the top 20 in the country.”
“W-What? The top 20 in the entire country?”
“Wouldn’t that secure his spot in the top three institutes?”
“Of course! They’re all here to snatch Moss for themselves!”
…
Michaels suddenly thought of something and turned to Elroy. Then he asked smilingly, “Elroy, did your school prepare any equipment or potions for Moss?”
