Anne's arrow whistled towards the sandbag. It pierced through the air like a comet and left a trail of blue light.

Upon contact, the collision caused the pillar to briefly shake because of the intensity behind the shot.

It continuously went up until it reached the 5th gem which is already considered as a pass but it was still going up. It passed through the 6th gem and went halfway there before coming back down.

The whole stadium became silent, many people rubbed their eyes or pinched themselves to confirm if what they saw was real.

Carl coughed a bit before making the announcement. ”Anne Fiore, 6500 units. Pass!”

It didn't took long before the they erupted into furious cheering which made the stadium shake. Anne's relatives were furiously waving their fans while loudly chanting her name.

”Holy crap! That was amazing!”

”6500 units of strength? How is that possible? If someone told me that this lady is already at the Soldier Realm, I would've totally bought it!”

”Kyah~! Husband! Husband! Did you see that!? Did you see that!? Annie is so fierce!” Emma grabbed Clyde by his collar and shook him back and forth.

”I know! I saw it too! Stop shaking me, I feel dizzy!” It took him a great effort to release himself from the grip of his wife.

”Wish me luck.” Mark said while stepping forward.

”Bullshit! Just hit the thing as hard as you can, there's no luck needed for that!” Paul retorted while sending him away.

Mark shrugged and chuckled. He then took out his swords and went into a battle stance. Before he even condensed his energies, he heard Raven's voice.

”Do your best. He's watching.”

A shiver ran through his spine as he heard those words. He didn't need to confirm it, if Raven says so then it's true. Mark wanted to search for the person on his mind but he knew that it's pointless.

Nevertheless, eagerness bloomed on his heart. He yearned for his father's approval for so long, now's the time to show him the fruits of his labor.

He held his sword tightly and condensed his energy. The swords flared with a glaring blue light, he then swiftly swung his sword horizontally and following up with a vertical one.

Two fin-like sword energies merged into one and swiftly arrived at the target. Fortunately, the sandbag was made out of exceptional materials or else it would've been pierced by Anne's arrow or quartered by Mark's attack.

The pillar shook once more and the pendulum shot up. Under the dumbfounded gazes of the crowd, it instantly passed through the 5th gem and kept going until it passed halfway through the 7th gem.

Carl smiled wryly as he announced the results: ”Mark Anderson, 7500 units, Pass!”

”Tch. Didn't make it 'till the 8th mark.” Mark was a bit dissatisfied.

Carl had the impulse to smack his head upon hearing this. 'This brat! I wasn't even near your strength when I was at your age! You're already very strong and your still complaining?' Of course, he wouldn't say such things aloud.
