Chapter 38 Passing the Exam
Despite the time constraints, Colin, who entered the second floor, still checked the surrounding walls by the way, trying to find the missing meditation method on the first floor here.

But here, except for a circle smaller than the one below, it is empty.

Colin, who was already prepared for disappointment, didn't waste any time. He walked to the stairs leading to the third floor and stretched out his right hand.

……

outside the tower.

"Colin Wayne has reached the third floor." The female examiner who observed through the magic lines left in advance said.

"what?"

Harris and Berkeley were stunned at the same time.

"How much time did he spend on the second floor?"

"It took almost no time."

The female examiner replied, and without waiting for Harris and Berkeley to respond, she continued:
"The fourth floor."

The two looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a while.

"Now?" After a moment of silence, Harris asked again.

"He stopped on the fourth floor." The female examiner replied.

Instead, Berkeley and Harris breathed a sigh of relief. If Colin Wayne continued to reach the top floor at that speed, they felt that it was necessary to carry out maintenance on the trial tower.

"How much time is left?"

"11 minutes."

"It's too late."

"Others are, but it's really hard to say at the speed at which he climbed to the fourth floor."

"He's only been awake for half a year." Berkeley sighed.

"Maybe less than half a year." Harris said.

The two were silent again.

"The fifth floor." The words of the female examiner hit the hearts of the two of them again.

……

Ke Lin went all the way to the fifth floor, the first three floors were empty, and there were 9 people on the fourth floor, and the number of people became smaller and smaller as he went up.

But Kress was not found.

That guy really has a bit of capital.

Colin, who had a smooth journey, quickly attracted the attention of others. Since the spell evaluation, everyone has known his identity. After all, the name Colin Wayne has been circulating in the magic circle of the entire Tulum Kingdom for nearly half a year, but because of this , except for the surprise at the beginning, everyone was not very surprised that he was able to cast such a terrifying "lava technique".

Because the rhythm of the exam is extremely tight, most people don't have time to pay too much attention to him.

It wasn't until the seventh floor that Colin saw a relatively familiar face.

That was the female magician who popularized the knowledge of the air wall on the first floor.

Although no one introduced it, as long as you try it yourself, you will understand, but in the final analysis, among the seven or eight people who have participated in the assessment, she is the only one who kindly reminded her.

The age of a magician, especially a female magician, is actually hard to tell from the outside. If you have to say, this magician is probably in his early twenties, thirties, or less than 40 years old.

This is also the most common age for novice magicians.

It is rare in a hundred years for Roman Sagan to pass the initial stage at the age of 12.In addition, without a good teacher, it is actually not easy to pass the initial assessment only by thinking about it yourself or communicating within a small group.

Everyone else on this floor was meditating and recovering. Obviously, they would not be able to try again for a while. Only the female magician stretched out her hand against the air wall.

Colin watched her for a while, and prepared to go up and try himself.

The female magician heard movement behind her, maybe she just failed to try, so she turned her head and took a look.

Seeing that it was Colin Wayne, she stepped aside subconsciously, then nodded slightly:

"Mr. Wayne, please first."

In fact, the width of the stairs is enough for 3 to 4 people to pass side by side, but since the other party is so polite, Colin doesn't want to waste time.

"Thank you."

He nodded and reached out to press the air wall.

In just a dozen seconds, he "went through" the air wall and walked up the stairs smoothly.

The female magician looked puzzled. It's not surprising that Colin Wayne is strong, but if that's the case, why didn't he reach this level until now.

In addition, she keenly discovered that when Colin Wayne passed the air wall, he did not lean forward with a slight loss of center of gravity like others, but "blends" into the wall very naturally.

Is it because it's too easy for him?
……

Ke Lin continued to climb up the steps, took two steps, then turned around suddenly, and said to the female magician:

"You can try interleaving the 'single-breathing' and 'double-breathing' meditation techniques."

After finishing speaking, he continued to climb the stairs under the stunned eyes of the female magician.

Eighth floor.

At this time, there were 4 people in total.

Colin finally got his wish and saw Kress, and unconsciously said in his heart, "Small, where are you running?"

When Kress saw him, he also had mixed feelings.

He didn't know about Colin's situation downstairs, but in terms of the total time spent, the other party was not much worse than himself.

"Hello, Mr. Kress."

"Hello, Mr. Wayne."

"You come first?" He said as if meeting an old friend.

"I just tried it once, and it will take a while," Krystan admits.

"In that case, I'll take a step first." Colin said and walked towards the stairs leading to the last floor.

Kress was stunned for a moment.

He just came up, so he doesn't need to rest?
You must know that the further you go to the back, the more difficult it will be to break through the air wall on each floor. Kress failed the first attempt because he was too impatient before.

In the eyes of everyone, Colin Wayne stepped forward, stretched out his hand, broke the wall, and climbed the stairs, all in one go.

Before everyone reacted, he had already reached the top floor of the trial tower.

……

The space on the top floor is undoubtedly the smallest, but it is still more than enough for a dozen people.

When Colin came up, there was only one person here.

It was the dark-skinned magician named Saul Howard.

"Hello, Mr. Wayne."

The other party was not surprised to see Ke Lin, and even secretly pleased that he reached the summit one step earlier than Master Roman's disciples. , but this did not prevent him from being secretly happy.

"Hello, Mr. Howard."

Colin responded, not paying much attention to him, and habitually looking at the surrounding walls—this is what he would do every floor.

The continuous disappointment has made him less hopeful.

However, at the next moment, Colin couldn't help showing surprise on his face.

……

outside the tower.

"Colin Wayne has reached the top, second only to Saul Howard." Under the constant urging and questioning of the two great magicians, the female examiner breathed a sigh of relief as if she had completed the task.

"How long would it take to remove the time wasted on the first layer?" Harris asked.

"It's never been calculated like this before, but it's about 10 minutes." The examiner said.

"10 minutes."

Harris sighed: "This is already at the level of intermediate mental power."

"It can't be calculated like this, but it is estimated to be about the same."

The mid-level assessment will not use the trial tower, but judging from past experience, even mid-level magicians may not all be able to reach the top floor within 10 minutes.

Just at this time, a staff member of the association came running from a distance, and when he got close, he gave a deep salute to the three magicians present, took out a gray bird paper and handed it to Berkeley, saying:

"Your Excellency, the written test results have come out."

Berkeley took the report card and opened it for a closer look.

"Kress scored 591, very good." He smiled slightly, but then his face froze.

"What's wrong?" Harris asked.

"See for yourself."

Harris took a look at the transcript and was also taken aback.

"Colin Wayne, 869 points?"

"Master Roman has always attached great importance to the study of elemental theory, it seems that it is not just talking."

"This score..." Harris frowned.

"This should be the third highest score in the entire Tulum Kingdom in the past 20 years." Berkeley sighed: "Not only that, I have seen Colin Wayne's test paper before, and he only did 870 questions in total."

"That is to say..."

"In other words, almost all of them are correct."

Together with the examiner, the three of them were silent, so that Kress and others had already climbed to the top of the trial tower without noticing.

for a long time.

Berkeley slowly raised his right hand, and finally touched his left chest lightly.

The other two saw it and followed suit.

Then, the three of them spoke in unison:
"Praise the storm!"
