Berserk Stick System

Chapter 140 - 140-Test

Several days passed, and hot sunlight shone on the practice arena. First-year students gathered to take a test before they were allowed to take on the quest. Several tests have been carried out, such as a knowledge test, and all students passed this test.

The next test was the battle ability test. For this year's top 10 students, they all passed without taking the test. On this test, the first-year student fought second-year seniors to see how strong they were. Luckily, on this test, Trecia was able to pass it. She looked very exhausted after passing the test.

"Drink this; you must be very tired." Silvie handed her a bottle of water.

"Huh... Huh... Thanks, Silvie, "

Trecia said breathlessly, her body drenched in sweat. She took a quick gulp of the drink Silvie had given her.

"*Gulp, gulp* Fuuah... I feel better now, "

"You look great, Trecia, even if you didn't beat that senior." I smiled, patting her head.

"Hehehe," Trecia looks to have a happy face.

By the way, the seniors haven't been defeated until now. They're really great," Trecia looked at the practice arena in admiration.

"They've been in this academy before us; their abilities have definitely improved tremendously with the help of resources from the academy and battles they've been through," Celyne explained.

Hearing Celyne's explanation, an expression of hope appeared on Trecia's face. She also wants to try even harder and become stronger with Lute and others. I smiled at an excited Trecia. I knew very well how great her innate skills were when she awakened them.

'I hoped the awakening of her innate skill wasn't due to a bad incident,' I looked at Trecia with a bit of concern.

"What's wrong, Lute?" Trecia asked because I was staring at her the whole time.

"Ah, nothing, I just think you look prettier,"

Trecia lowered her head, slightly embarrassed.

Seeing Trecia like this, I feel calmer now. I don't think that incident will happen because she has us here with her. Holding her shoulder, I looked down at her eyes. Trecia looked confused by my sudden serious look.

"Trecia, if something's bothering you, tell me, or you can tell the others. We're always with you"

Trecia was even more confused by what I said because she didn't feel anything bothering her, but she nodded in understanding with her sweet smile. I breathed a sigh of relief seeing her nod. We then talked again about the battle in the practice arena.

And unexpectedly, there was one person who was able to defeat a second-rate senior; he was Richard. As expected of the protagonist, even though he doesn't have much desire to become stronger, his abilities are still as strong as they are in the story.

"Lute, wasn't he a member of your group in the previous exam? He's greater than he looks, "Alice said with an even expression.

"Indeed, he is also a genius in our generation; it's just that there are more geniuses in this generation than him. If he was in last year's exam, he would be in the top 10 students, "

Alice nodded at hearing me because she also felt that way. After the test was over, some students had disappointed expressions because they failed to take this test, especially those with supporting abilities.

But then Efleda explained that students who had support-type abilities still had another test, namely a test to see how strong their support abilities were. Students who have support abilities look happy and confident. They are sure that they will pass because that is their forte.

"Okay, students who fail, you can go back to the dormitory and take the test again next month. Those who have support abilities, stay here because soon there will be a teacher who will test your abilities. While those who pass, follow me to Quest Hall, where I will explain a few things and give you an [Explorer Card] which is used as an identity when you take a quest in Quest Hall, similar to the [Adventurer Card] used by the Adventurer's Guild,"

After saying that, Elfleda led us towards Quest Hall. When we were there, everyone looked around in awe. This place looked very spacious. Many students were walking to and fro; some were on quest boards; some were talking to the receptionist.

There are five quest boards with different ranks, ranging from rank E to rank A. There is no rank F quest here because this quest is a very simple quest, such as cleaning animal cages or other public places, so quests like this only exist in Guild Adventurers and the Academy didn't include this kind of quest on the quest board. Meanwhile, quests above rank A are considered special quests and will only be completed by high-ranked students.

When we entered Quest Hall, it caught the attention of some students who were there. Elfleda remained expressionless, and towards one of the receptionists who were there, we followed closely behind.

"Miss, is this a new student who has completed the test?"

"Right, I brought them here to get an Explorer Card,"

"I see. Wait a moment. I'll take it."

The receptionist went to the cupboard behind her; she then took a box and brought it to the table. When the box is opened, inside there are many white cards.

This is an Explorer Card. Your data has been stored in the academy and sent to this card. All you need to do is touch this card, and it will load your data, "the receptionist explained with a smile.

After the cards we're dealt, I looked at the card in my hand right now. When I touched it, my data started showing here. Starting from my name, the type of ability I have, and my ability rank, below that there is also my Explorer Rank. This should be a rank based on all students in the academy because it says Rank 602, which means I'm in the bottom rank, but if it's based on a first-year student, it's Rank 2.

Seeing that each of us had obtained our Explorer Cards, Elfleda got up from her seat and led us to the Rank E quest board.. Many quests ranged from searching for medicinal ingredients for alchemy and expelling a pack of wolves that disrupted residents' farms.
