Chapter 25 (1/2)
After a night of fighting, more than half of the thousand apprentice magisters had died.
The remaining magisters were glad that they had survived the night.
At the same time, they had experienced what the night in the hunting area would be like in advance.
“I’m alive?”
An apprentice magister crawled out from under the carpet of an underground warehouse.
He was something else as he hid under the carpet in the underground warehouse instead of in the open.
“I’ll become the first place for this exam!”
A man with spiky hair and upturned eyes, his back leaning against a tree trunk, opened his sleepy eyes.
He opened his tactical backpack to reveal five bronze tracking devices.
Although he did not have any silver tracking device, it was good enough for an apprentice magister to kill five low-level beasts.
In fact, before the exam, the man had followed his father to the hunting area to train and gain combat experience.
Otherwise, it would be difficult for an apprentice magister to obtain such good results on his first exam.
It was a dilapidated house and an ordinary master bedroom.
Catherine yawned and woke up to the alluring aroma of grilled meat.
“Austin?”
She looked outside. Austin was indeed grilling meat.
Another unfortunate vicious beast became the siblings’ breakfast.
“Silverback Wolf King, a mid-level vicious beast. It ran up our roof last night and howled.”
Austin rotated the brown-gold legs and explained the origin of the breakfast.
“Mid-level vicious beast…”
Catherine was somewhat numb.
Another one!
There were a total of four intermediate-level beasts in the exam, and half of them had fallen into Austin’s “clutches”.
After Austin killed the Silverback Wolf King, his cells evolved to obtain an ability—Howl of the Wolf.
With this ability, there was a probability that Austin could summon a wolf pack that had a lower level than him!
“Could you check how many tracking devices we have in total, sister?”
Austin took a pinch of salt with his fingers and sprinkled it on the grilled leg.
“Well, let me see.”
Katherine dug her backpack to check on yesterday’s results.
“There are a total of 38 bronze and two silver tracking devices.”
Catherine answered.
Most of the tracking devices were, of course, Austin’s doing.
Austin sprinkled another handful of cumin powder. “Not a lot,” he mused. “I don’t know if anyone has hunted more beasts than we did.”
“There’s still some time left before the end of the exam. We should take this opportunity to gain more combat experience.”
“Catherine, we’ll carry on with the hunt after breakfast.”
“Sure, brother.”
Catherine nodded in agreement.
Other apprentice magisters would have been eager to return to the city as soon as possible, but this pair of siblings continued their hunt after breakfast.
The exam was coming to an end.
More and more apprentice magisters gathered at the transportation station of Vicious Beast Town.
Most of the apprentice magisters looked battered and exhausted. Their bodies were tattered and covered in wounds.
Elder Chuan, Cass, Ankti, and the other examiners stood in front of the transportation station.
The assistant examiners began to tabulate the results.
