His companions were also caught in the explosion and flew together into the stands. The noble then fell to the ground completely defeated, and was disqualified from the entrance exam. Louis celebrated his first point, and Cain found the commoner's game interesting.
The other two archers were furious about their leader's defeat and shouted in anger. One of them looked around and wondered where the boy had gone, as he had suddenly disappeared. Cain then appeared in the air and got the nobles' attention, telling them to look up.
Meanwhile Louis was already preparing to launch the second slime and secure more points. The blue monster hit the second archer's face dead on, with no chance of defence. With that he was also disqualified, and thrown far away by the force of the attack.
The last remaining noble panicked and could not believe what he was seeing. Louis then appeared behind him with a smile and said that he was the last on the list. The boy threatened him, saying that the upperclassmen would not forgive him for this at all. But suddenly Cain stepped on the noble's foot, making him trip as if it were an accident. With the noble on the ground, Cain told him to be more careful next time, with a smile on his face.
Louis thanked him for the help, and Cain asked whether his hand was all right after all. With a handshake, Louis said that he was pretty decent for an elite noble. The blond then told him not to compare him with the others, and revealed that he was from the Aurank family.
The great families, it was explained, were powerful clans with many grand masters among them. Louis reflected that there were various types of nobles, as the duo continued to fight.
Then another group of candidates got angry at the commoner's interference in the fight. They shouted in anger that they would not let the duo score any more points. With that, the two prepared for battle, releasing a powerful aura from their bodies. The nobles advanced, shouting that commoners should disappear forever from their world.
Suddenly a group of candidates noticed that Lord Cain was the main target. So they decided to help the heir, and charged at the lesser nobles. At this the arena became a battlefield, and Cain told the boy to be careful.
A girl and a little boy watched the fight, and she said that things were getting interesting. She then called out to Milana and told her to make the nobles regret everything they had done.
Louis realised that he had become a target for many, and that scoring more points would be a problem. He turned and noticed that several slimes had suddenly appeared in the battle arena. The little boy used his staff to make one of the candidates trip and fall to the ground. Meanwhile Milana used her weapon to launch a powerful area attack on the others.
Suddenly a redhead with a giant hammer appeared, having defeated several candidates on his own. With a smile on his face he shouted that this was all great, and a lot of fun. He said that hitting people was much more fun than fighting weak slimes.
With a battle cry, the redhead spun his giant hammer with all his might in the arena. The boy started spinning faster and faster, ready to unleash a powerful attack. With his eyes glowing, he shouted for everyone to get out of his way as quickly as possible. He then unleashed an area attack that sent all the candidates flying with the impact.
After the attack the redhead stood still with his hammer on his shoulder, looking very victorious. With that, several candidates were left lying on the ground, completely defeated and out of combat.
One of the examiners asked whether they should stop it. The director said their energy was good, but another instructor was worried about so many nobles being disqualified in the same exam. The director said that the academy had its rules, and not to worry about public opinion.
He then went to the arena to signal the end of the exam for good. The director announced that the second exam was finally over for everyone. He said that the scores and rankings would be announced shortly. With the end of the exam the earth magic dissipated, and one of the nobles fell to the ground, exhausted.
The examiners then brought healing potions to the candidates who had been injured in the fight. Louis took a potion and was impressed by the mysterious power it emanated. Cain approached and asked what was wrong with him, seeing him deep in thought. The noble told him to relax, and said that he would not go easy on him even if he won their bet.
The director then announced that the results of the second exam would be revealed to everyone. He summoned a giant magic scroll, and Cain asked what Louis's position was. The nobles mocked him, but the list only showed as far as sixth place.
The director announced that the top five had broken records, and that Milana Royce was in fifth. To the surprise of many, the heir Cain was only in fourth place in the test. In third place was the red-haired girl named Faye Duran, who seemed very confident.
Louis wondered whether he had been disqualified for having attacked those other nobles. But then second place was announced, and Louis Cygnus appeared with eight hundred and eighty-seven points.
Cain was completely shocked, and asked who that boy was, since he had never seen him before. Then the blond noble remembered that this was the commoner from earlier, and the young man said that that was his secret. Cain accepted his defeat in the bet, and Louis said he would tell him what he wanted after the exam.
With that, the glorious first place winner was about to be announced to everyone. First place, with a record of eight hundred and eighty-eight points, was Neil Gunn.
The redhead smiled and said that there were interesting people around, and told them not to disappoint him. The others were shocked to see two commoners at the top, and said that Neil was too strong. Meanwhile Milana looked at Faye, who was standing still, holding her enormous spear. The red-haired girl then said that she would love to have a battle against the first place winner of the exam.
