“This damage prowess is too astonishing!”

“Is this the power of a Shadow Death God? It’s impossible for those at Knight level to fend off against that!”

“It’s not just the Knights. Even Conferred Knights… If they don’t use their abilities, there’s no way they can fend this off.”

Everyone looked at Anderson in astonishment, horror, and disbelief.

Anderson smiled, revealing a proud look, as if he was a primary school kid who had just gotten full marks for his exams.

When he met Hoult’s gaze, he threw out his middle finger in contempt.

“This guy…” Hoult’s grip on the Crimson Fire tightened as he frowned.

On the other hand, the other seeded candidate Wei Leng seemed to be in a completely different world, nothing being able to perk his interest in the least.

Other than Anderson, none of the next participants were able to show such a powerful damage prowess, not even Wei Leng. Despite the fact that he had Heaven’s Perception, which gave him a keen sense of observation and a reaction ability which boosted his damaging powers, he had no powerful Killing techniques, and his explosive attack force was not comparable to that of someone like Anderson.

Devitt shook his head and said, “Wei Leng, you’ve really disappointed me. Have you been seriously cultivating after attaining Heaven’s Perception? These are still the same skills and techniques as before. Although your damage powers are already much stronger than ordinary people, you shouldn’t only be at this level. I’ll give you 12 points.”

The oldest amongst the four, the wrinkle-covered Commissioner of Education Luke said, “This performance does not showcase your talent. 12 points.”

Yaris spoke with indifference, “Disappointing. 12 points.”

Armstrong did not comment much either. He merely said outright, “Ordinary. 12 points.”

In the end, Wei Leng only got 12 points.

“Sigh, to think that even though Wei Leng has attained Heaven’s Perception, he’s still unable to get anywhere near Anderson…”

“Although he has Heaven’s Perception, before he reaches level 20 he’ll only have an ether synchronization rate of 10% at most. It’s impossible for him to identify the metal pillar’s flaw.”

“It’s a pity. Although he has great talent, his damage powers and talent are not directly related.”

“Mmmm, seems like that Fang Xingjian won’t be able to get a high score either. The Windstorm Sword Hero has unparalleled speed and specializes in attacking while on the move. However, the damage and explosive powers are no match.”

“That’s right. Seems like the top will be disputed between Anderson and Hoult, who has yet to have his chance.”

Hearing the crowd’s comments, Lilia slightly clenched her fists, her face puffed up in fury. Kirst’s City Lord pat her on the shoulders and said, “Lili, it’s fine. The first stage is not something Fang Xingjian specializes in. It’ll be fine in the second stage. The Windstorm Sword Hero specializes in fighting against multiple opponents.”

Just as they were talking, Hoult appeared. Today, he was wearing an emerald-colored long-sleeved top, and was holding onto a crimson-red treasure sword. His long hair flowed down casually, and he looked as if he was a fallen noble. The moment he stepped up, a bunch of young aristocratic ladies started screaming their heads off.

Hoult lightly smoothed his hair, bowing toward the four examiners, and drew out his sword.

It was as if there were streams of red light flashing in the crimson-red sheath. However, when the longsword was completely drawn out, even Fang Xingjian’s brows rose.

Ferdinand and Lilia, who were looking toward the stage, as well as Rota and Hamil who were part of the competition, were all astonished.
