Upon hearing the shouts, the other examiners in the other transparent rooms saw what had happened in Moss’s test room and immediately ran over.
When they arrived just outside the room and looked through the glass, they saw an unusually pained expression on the examiner’s face. Meanwhile, Moss’s face was also pale as sweat covered his forehead.
A middle-aged man saw this and started sweating also. “Maria, go and get the head of the mental strength team, quickly!” He urged as his eyes were full of anxiety.
Maria nodded solemnly and quickly ran to the office. A moment later, a tall, middle-aged man with a full beard rushed over at astonishing speed. His expression also turned solemn as he stood outside the transparent test room.
After observing for a moment, he slowly opened the door and quietly entered. When he stood next to Moss and his examiner, he composed himself, tightly closed his eyes, and stopped moving. Others could only see his eyeballs frantically moving under his eyelids.
Alan widened his eyes and was flustered. He pointed at the big screen and quietly asked, “What happened?”
“I can’t say for sure, but judging from Mill’s test, there must’ve been a collision of spiritual power between the examiner and examinee.” Baylon shook his head, looking nervous as he stared unblinkingly at the screen.
…
Five minutes had passed in a flash, but Alan felt like he had stared at the screen for five days. It was long and heart-wrenching.
“L-Look, the bearded man opened his eyes!” Baylon shouted when he noticed the slight movement on the screen.
Alan heard Baylon’s shout and immediately stood up. He stared at the big screen with widened eyes.
A moment later, Moss and his examiner seemed to have collapsed instantly. They sat on the ground as the bearded man hurriedly supported them. The other examiners saw this and immediately ran into the test room.
“Sir, that’s…”
“It’s all right. Fortunately, you guys reacted in time. Perhaps Moratti was already a little tired when he met this examinee with such potent spiritual power. Moratti’s spiritual power might suffer a backlash from the examinee.
“Moratti stimulated the examinee’s highly potent spiritual power and could not control it. Hence, Moratti was the one who suffered more than the examinee.”
The bearded man wiped the sweat off his forehead, and a sense of fear glinted in his eyes. He sighed and continued, “Let these two rest for half an hour. Don’t let others disturb them.”
Maria nodded and told the examiners to carry Moss and Moratti away.
After witnessing what had happened, Mill stood outside Moss’s test room and waited anxiously. Her worried heart finally relaxed when she heard the conversation between the examiners just now.
Half an hour later, Alan finally relaxed after seeing Moss exit his test room as if nothing had happened.
Alan was the first to run up and give Moss a heavy pat on the shoulder and a big hug. “What are you playing at, huh?! You scared the cr*p out of me just now!”
Moss gently patted Alan’s back. “It’s okay. I don’t even know what exactly happened. I only felt a burst of spiritual power.”
He embarrassedly smiled when he saw the other Guardians members approaching. “I’m okay, guys. Sorry for making you all worry just now.” Then he changed the topic and asked, “How did you guys do on the test?”
“We finished our tests much faster, thanks to you. We’ve been foolishly waiting here for quite a while. Unlike you, enjoying your nap in the test room!” Alan said.
Then the other Guardians members laughed.
…
The audience was bustling, and the atmosphere was lively in the Magical Beast taming test arena. The students watched the Magical Beasts in the arena while discussing among themselves.
The organizing committee had divided the Magical Beast taming exam into two parts. One was the test of intimacy between a beast and its owner, and the other was to test the tamed beasts’ battle potential.
There were two difficulty options for the Battle Potential test—easy and hard. The examinee could choose either one according to their circumstances, and the system would grade the tamed beasts based on their performance in battle.
Finally, the organizing committee would score the examinees by combining their scores during the intimacy and Battle Potential tests.
After Moss and Mill signed in, they found a relatively quiet place and sat down. While waiting for their turns, they watched the Battle Potential test with great interest.
“The Battle Potential test is fascinating. Look at that Flying Demon Rat. It’s typically cute, but it’s fierce in a fight!”
“The battle between an Ocelot and a Flying Demon Rat is interesting, but the Ocelot will have trouble dealing with the rat.”
“Also, this is just the easy option, so the hard ones should be more exciting to watch.”
The group standing before Moss did well in livening the atmosphere, and their discussions were much more intense than usual.
A moment later, the examinee and their Ocelot ended their Magical Beast taming exam by subduing the Flying Demon Rat. However, it was evident that the examinee and their Ocelot needed to get used to each other since they only scored 60% in their intimacy test.
Then an announcement sounded from the exam area, “Mill from White Deer High, please choose your difficulty and place your beast into the arena.”
Mill was shocked when she heard the announcement and hurriedly approached the arena as Moss followed her. After selecting her difficulty level, Mill entered the participant viewing area.
Two Ocelots of different sizes dashed out as the arena’s hidden door opened. Immediately after, the examinees in the exam area cheered and chanted.
“Whoa, it’s one Ocelot against another! This battle is even more interesting than the previous one!”
“Mill’s Ocelot is slightly smaller than the other. It seems her Ocelot might have trouble dealing with its larger opponent.”
“Who said size matters? Let’s just watch what happens.”
As the examinees discussed animatedly, the two Ocelots had already engaged in battle.
‘Mill’s Ocelot is quite powerful,’ Moss inwardly praised as he smiled.
Although the match had just started, he could already guess its result because he sensed that Mill’s Ocelot possessed more potent spiritual power than the other Ocelot.
Moreover, he knew Mill and her Ocelot had decent intimacy levels and would only continue stimulating their intimacy through spiritual power.
As expected, Mill’s Ocelot always had the upper hand in battle, and its attacks were even more fierce.
“Wow, Mill’s Ocelot won!”
The students discussing the next match heard the shout and turned their attention to the arena.
“The smaller Ocelot won?! I can’t believe it.”
“Yeah, right. You’re not as profound as me.”
“Of course, you are. You even want to challenge the Howling Sky Demon Wolf in the next exam.”
“W-What?! The Howling Sky Demon Wolf?”
The surrounding students were shocked when they heard the beast’s name.
