Chapter 206 - Target Achieved!

Moss’s visit to the top three institutes was over, and although it took almost four days, he thought it was worth it.

During that time, Moss experienced the might and influence of the top three. It also allowed him to get to know some of the world’s elites.

Sensing the competitive atmosphere from all over the country, Moss dared not be negligent as he rushed to return to the elite training camp. After that, he devoted himself to training in as many types of Mystic Realms as possible.

He had just cleared a six-star Mystic Realm on the sixth level and was about to move on to the next when the system sounded in his head.

“Congratulations, you have reached level 30! You can now use four-star equipment and potions. You have met all conditions to become a Holy Light Knight. Would you like to evolve now?”

‘Evolve now!’ Moss did not hesitate and quickly conveyed his decision.

“Now evolving. Please wait patiently.”

As soon as the notification sounded, Moss felt many strange things pouring into his brain as beams of holy light enveloped his body. The beams of light shot out from Moss creepily, but he felt warm inside as power filled his body.

He was about to experience the magical light when the system sounded again.

Ding!

“Congratulations, you have completed your evolution and become a Holy Light Knight! You have received an intermediate Holy Light Protection skill.”

“Unlocked a new condition: Class evolution.”

“Current condition: Reach Holy Belief value of 1,000. Current value: 502/1,000.”

“Holy Light Knight is an epic-level class. Now awakening 100 Defenses Enhancement Skill. Current skill potency: 50%.”

“When 100 Defenses Enhancement Skill reaches 100%, it will evolve into Absolute Defense.”

Moss was surprised about 100 Defenses Enhancement’s miraculous effects when the system sounded again.

“Congratulations, you have unlocked a talent: Glorious.”

Soon after, Moss discovered that Glorious would give him the ability to activate Holy Belief during battle. It would also become more robust as time passes.

It also meant he could use his spiritual power and pass on Holy Belief’s effects to his teammates during battle. Thus, stimulating his and his teammates’ potential and giving them explosive power.

He carefully checked his newly acquired skills’ detailed descriptions and was incredibly excited. ‘The Holy Light Knight class is terrifyingly strong!’

He had experienced several class evolutions and had a certain understanding of the Holy Light Knight’s class. Even so, he was amazed and pleasantly surprised.

Moss revealed an expectant smile after understanding the improvements he obtained from his class evolution as he thought of the upcoming college entrance exams.

…

Aisha called Moss and the others to Elroy’s office the day before the exams. When the five Guardians entered the office, they saw Na’er standing respectfully beside Elroy, saying something to him.

Elroy was smiling.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Elroy invited everyone for a seat as he sat beside Na’er.

“Dear Guardians, I’ve called you all here for a chat and nothing more,” Elroy spoke first as he looked at everyone pleasantly. He resembled a grandfather who cared about his grandchildren at that moment.

Besides Moss, the others had rarely seen Elroy looking like that. He was different from the stern and dignified director they knew, making the others feel slightly awkward. For a moment, the rest of the Guardians did not know what to say.

“Na’er told me you’re all doing well in your preparations. I am thrilled to hear that,” Elroy smiled and continued, “The college entrance exams are tomorrow, so how does everyone feel?”

Alan scratched his head and said thoughtfully, “To be honest, I’m still a little nervous.”

“M-Me too!” Bass said

“We were fine yesterday, but now…” Baylon echoed.

Mill said smilingly, “I was nervous two days ago, but not anymore after seeing everyone here.

Moss remained silent when he heard that. He simply smiled and looked at Elroy. He was not nervous at the moment, only excited because he could prove to the world that he could make it to the top three institutes.

Hearing everyone’s words, Elroy looked around and smiled. “I want to tell you about my experience with the college entrance exams.”

He told everyone about what happened during his exams, and the students were not the only ones who listened attentively. Aisha and Na’er were also listening with great interest. Some parts of Elroy’s story even caused everyone to laugh out loud.

After listening to Elroy’s vivid narration, the atmosphere in his office became lively and cheerful as the students chatted with each other.

Seeing that everyone was emotionally stable, Elroy spoke again, “Everyone will be nervous when they encounter such an event like the college entrance exams.

“What we prepared for will not significantly impact the exams if we don’t perform well. The key to ensuring good results is a good attitude. I shared my story with everyone in hopes you can all maintain confident attitudes.”

Everyone’s heartfelt laughter echoed throughout the room once again. Elroy chatted with them for a while before ending the conversation he enjoyed very much.

Everyone left except Moss, so Elroy added more water to Moss’s cup and said smilingly, “Moss, although I didn’t see you much over the past few days, I can see the determination in your eyes. I know that you’ve prepared well for these exams. Still, there is one thing I want to say before I leave you today.”

“Please, what is it, sir?” Moss looked at Elroy expectantly and asked respectfully.

“I know you’re someone with ambition, a sense of responsibility, and full of chivalry. However, one with such qualities often thinks of others and carries a burden on their shoulders.

“With that, I hope you can put your family’s, teachers’, and friends’ expectations behind you. Forget everything else and be yourself wholeheartedly to enjoy the college entrance exams.”

“Thank you so much, Director Elroy!” Moss felt gratified as he spoke sincerely.

Elroy knew his words had reached Moss when he noticed Moss’s thankful expression. Elroy felt much more relieved. He was confident in Moss and believed he would overcome his difficulties to achieve excellent exam results.

Elroy patted Moss’s shoulder and said, “Go and get some rest. We’ll leave at 8:00 am tomorrow,” then he reminded Moss, “Don’t forget to bring your documents, or you will be the same as I was when I took the exams.”

Elroy laughed after saying that.
