The students were selected one by one by Teacher Ruth to cast their magic on wooden targets until it was Evelyn's turn to be pointed by the teacher.

"Take it easy, you can do it. No one will mock you if you fail, many students haven't even managed to bring out anything. Give yourself confidence." Elysia provided support when Evelyn began to get nervous because she was selected by the teacher.

"Um, thanks, Ely." Evelyn smiled and nodded once before walking forward.

"Do what you can. This is your first magic practice, don't be afraid to fail." Teacher Ruth made a suggestion to the girl who seemed a little stiff and nervous.

Evelyn only nodded once at the teacher before closing her eyes. She took a deep breath and blew it out again to calm herself down. Then she practiced what she did before by flowing the magic energy in her body towards Hypmond in her hand and then making a magic circle.

Feeling that everything was going well, Evelyn opened her eyes again and tried to create a whirling gust of wind by channeling a little more of her magic energy into Hypmond, the experiment was successful and a small whirlwind swirled in the middle of the magic circle.

She finally gained the confidence that her magic would hit the wooden target five meters in front of her. 𝐛𝐞𝗱𝗻𝐨𝐯𝗲𝗹.𝐜𝐨𝐦

(AN: I changed it to five meters, ten meters is too far after I measured it hehe XD)

"Air Bullet!" Evelyn shouted excitedly. A ball of air the size of an orange immediately shot up and broke on impact with the wooden target resulting in a gentle breeze without causing anything to the target.

The girl who fired the Air Bullet returned to Elysia's side with a big smile on her face as if asking for praise.

"That's amazing! Your first try has already succeeded in materializing magic and releasing it into a technique, congrats!" Elysia understood what Evelyn wanted, so she generously gave her what she wanted with light compliments.

"Hehe... It's nothing. Eh? Ely, you weren't directly selected by Teacher Ruth right after me?" Evelyn smiled with a silly expression but she was a little surprised when Joanna was chosen by the teacher, Elysia was overlooked.

"Why do I have to be selected by the teacher right after you?" Elysia didn't understand either, but she felt the teacher was deliberate and would point herself to the very last.

"But the other students were selected as if in order, so I thought you would be selected right after me."

"Sounds like it's true, but I don't know either." Elysia has the same opinion as Evelyn, the students one by one are selected in order by the teacher but have missed her.

Consecutively the four students haven't succeeded in casting their magic even though they have succeeded in making small elements from their magic circle.

"Don't be sad, this is just your first try. The class isn't over yet, we can try practicing magic again later, okay?" Elysia encouraged her four new acquaintances who looked a little down when they saw the other students in front successfully cast their magic.

"En, thank you, Miss Elysia. I'll try to do better later." Joanna nodded in an improving mood.

"Miss Elysia, why haven't you been selected by the teacher?"

"Yes, have you been missed by the teacher?"

"Do we need to remind the teacher?"

Lana, Maggie, and Betty also felt that Elysia had been overlooked and neglected.

"Uh, just let it be. If all the students have been selected and I haven't, then it is necessary to remind the teacher." Elysia shook her head slightly followed by a 'no' palm motion.

Next came David's turn to be selected by the teacher. He walked forward confidently as he had been training himself for the past year.

"Thunderbolt!" David shouted with the cool body pose taught by his boss yesterday. A ball of lightning shot up and struck the top of the wooden target and managed to completely scorch the affected area.

"That's good, you have good progress. Continue your hard work, and you can move up to the next grade easily at the end of the school year." Teacher Ruth gave a compliment.

"Thank you, teacher!"

David saluted and returned to Brian's side then he looked at the students who looked down on his boss and himself yesterday with a defiant facial expression as if he was asking for a fight.

After that, Brian snorted when he was pointed at by the teacher. He walked forward in a pretentious manner. It's time for a real man to talk with actions rather than words, that's what he read in the book 'How to be a real man' yesterday.

Brian has to get the students who belittled him yesterday to swallow their babble back by showing his strength and talent.

"Fire Arrow!" The 30-centimeter fire arrow shot and pierced right at the top of the wooden target and scorched half of the wooden target.

Himself and David deliberately aimed at the top of the target as if aiming for the head of someone who challenged him.

"You've done well this year Brian, your body has recovered and everything will be fine this year." Teacher Ruth assured him with a smile.

"Thank you, Teacher Ruth."

Brian immediately walked back, but when he saw Elysia clapping her hands as if appreciating Brian's magic but no sound came out of the clapping, he happily smiled and nodded at her before returning to David's side.

He immediately put on an arrogant face with his chest puffed out as if telling other students to prove themselves better than him.

"Brian and David are kind of funny, huh." Evelyn looked back to see Brian and David's behavior.

"They're good people and know what they have to do. I wonder why the two of them failed to get to second grade."

"Yes, with magic like that, it should be possible. Maybe we should ask at another time and opportunity?" Evelyn shared the same opinion.

After all the students were selected by the teacher, it was Elysia's turn to be selected last. Her guess was right, she was deliberately kept as the last.

"Ely, cheer up. You can do it." Evelyn took turns cheering.

"Yes, Miss Elysia, you can do it." Joanna gave her support and was followed by three of her dorm mates.

"Okay thank you." Elysia nodded gently with a smile then stepped forward to try to cast her magic at the wooden target.

"Do your best." That sentence the teacher spoke to Elysia was very different from the other students, but no one realized it other than the person in question.

'Lil Ely, don't make an explosion like in Avrora Forest. We'll be in big trouble if that really happens.' Elena was worried and gave a suggestion while Elysia was feeling nervous inside.

'Un, I know. I just need something small, small, and round like the other students a while ago.' Elysia sighed silently before muttering and activating her magic circle from Hypmond in her hand.

After that, she easily made small sparks there to act like the other students. Feeling quite pretentious, she made sure to make something round, small, and fire.

"Fire Ball!" Elysia shouted out the name of her technique with a slight blush, remembering that she was exactly like a 'chuuni' back on Earth.

A fireball appeared and shot towards the wooden target from her magic circle but it wasn't the magic circle doing its job properly as she couldn't use it to cast magic. All the magic she used was only using her imagination and understanding.

'Come on Ely make sure it won't explode. Ball, small, round, and fire.'

Elysia reassured herself as the fireball she launched slowly approached the wooden target. She was quite worried because of the teacher's treatment and she was reminded again by Elena about an old incident.

*blop* *blop* *poof*

The fireball that Elysia launched bounced off the wooden target and bounced again on the ground before Elysia forced it to disappear. She blushed a little because what she made was no longer a fireball but an energy ball with a shape like fire.
