Chapter 208 - Level 10, Hell

A bell rang as a countdown echoed in the exam venue.

“Three!”

“Two!”

“One!”

When the countdown ended, the nine bronze doors opened simultaneously as their energy fluctuations emitted a profound and dazzling light.

The examinees rushed toward the doors and used their spiritual power to perceive the test contents.

“Type 1 test: The shore leading to success.”

“Difficulty: Level 8.”

“Optional levels: Simple, hard, and hell.”

“Hint 1: Before you reach the Shore of Success, eight vicious beasts with cruel natures will be waiting for you.”

“Hint 2: The beasts will be five-star Mystic Realm boss-level beasts.”

“Type 2 test: Onward to the Ideal Palace.”

“Difficulty: Level 9.”

“Optional levels: Easy, hard, and hell.”

“Hint 1: Before you arrive at the Ideal Palace, nine ferocious, bloodthirsty beasts will be waiting for you.”

“Hint 2: The beasts will be six-star Mystic Realm boss-level beasts.”

“Type 3 test: The Path to Freedom leading to top-tier institutes.”

“Difficulty: Level 10.”

“Additional levels: Simple, hard, and hell.”

“Hint 1: Although the Path to Freedom heightens your chances to attend a top-tier institute, you must eliminate ten beasts to be free. These beasts are pure evil.”

“Hint 2: The beasts will be seven-star Mystic Realm boss-level beasts.”

“Note: You can either complete your tests or use your spatial portals to escape. The test will end immediately, and the examiner will rate you based on what you have completed, time, quality, and other aspects.”

The examinees were shocked after discovering the three types of tests.

“The level 8 test requires us to fight beasts that are five-star Mystic Realm boss levels, and it’s the easiest among the three. That is insane!”

“Exactly! They still haven’t told us what kind of beasts we’ll be facing! Are they expecting us to go in there blind?”

“The level 10 test is even more terrifying! Whoever chooses that will face ten seven-star Mystic Realm boss-level beasts! We might not even conquer one of them, let alone ten!”



The examinees were shocked because they did not know the difference between simple, hard, and hell. They only thought of how insanely difficult it was to complete their tests.

Although the tests were challenging, the examinees still had essential qualities. After all, they had studied for many years to pass the college entrance exams.

No matter how challenging the tests were, the examinees had to look at the contents out of respect for the person who set them.

The examinees weighed their options when a broadcast sounded above the venue, “Examinees, pay attention. All examinees must mind their spatial portals. Please use them if you encounter any dangers you cannot handle.”

The examinees knew the importance of their spatial portals when faced with such rigorous tests. The examinees’ lives would be in danger if they did not use their spatial portals should they encounter terrifying beasts and other unknown variables.

The organizing committee also prepared a casualty counter. They would consider the test’s time successful if it was within a particular range.

The organizing committee had included those contents in their contracts, and the examinees knew they had signed them.

After deliberating, the examinees walked toward the nine bronze doors, one after another. The Guardians formed a circle and shouted, “Let’s go!” before entering their chosen tests.

Alan and Baylon walked into the middle of the first row, which had a bronze door with a level 8 difficulty. Then Bass and Mill chose bronze doors with level 9 difficulties, respectively.

Meanwhile, Moss was determined as he walked toward the last bronze door with a hell level in the third row. He activated his spiritual power one second later and entered the spatial rift.

The college entrance exams officially began when the last examinee entered a level 8 bronze door. At the same time, an enormous screen appeared above the nine bronze doors at the venue’s center.

The schools’ directors, principals, other staff members, and leaders of education centers could see information and situations in the examinees’ tests through the screen.

The organizing committee also set up a special waiting area for the examinees’ parents anxiously waiting outside. The parents could see the students’ every move through the big screen in the waiting area.

Since there were many examinees, the organizing committee set up nine screens instead of just one, so the parents could view each student’s performance based on their corresponding screens.

“Black Dragon City’s Number One High: Maurice.”

“Class: Swordmaster.”

“Test level: 9 (Hell).”

“Black Dragon City’s Number Five High: Thompson.”

“Class: Red-Robed Great Mage.”

“Test level: 10 (Easy).

“Python City’s Number Two High: Hayes.”

“Class: Dark Warlock.”

“Test level: 9 (Hard).”

“White Deer City’s Number Three High: Marzel.”

“Class: Great Swordsman.”

“Test level: 10 (Hard).”

“White Deer City’s Number Two High: Emir.”

“Class: Necromancer.”

“Test level: 10 (Hard).

These examinees were their city’s top performers and scored highest in the mock exams. Hence they received more attention than others.

“As expected of Black Dragon City’s star students. They chose tests that are level 9 and above.”

“The students from White Deer City are fierce too since they chose level 10 tests! White Deer City’s Number Two and Three High seem quite ambitious this year!”

“Wait, why don’t I see Moss from White Deer High? Wasn’t he planning to take the exams to attend the top three institutes?”

Besides the star students from other cities and countries, Moss also received a lot of attention because he was the Future Star recipient for S Country’s professional competition and S Country’s elite training program’s best graduate. Also, he had rejected special enrollment offers from the top ten institutes.

The onlookers quickly searched for Moss on the big screen.

“Hey, Moss’s information is on the right-hand side of the screen. Over there on the second to last panel,” someone in the stands shouted as those searching for Moss looked to the screen’s lower right corner.

“White Deer High: Moss.”

“Class: Knight.”

“Test level: 10 (Hell).”

There was a wave of controversy and clamor in the stands as more and more people looked toward Moss’s screen.

“He chose a level 10 test with a hell-level difficulty?!”

“Oh my goodness, is he desperate to attend the top three institutes?”

“The Path to Freedom test might sound nice, but it can’t be easy.”

“Moss is too arrogant. It would be good enough if a knight could get into the top 30 institutes. He even rejected the top ten institutes that offered him special enrollment.”

“Moss will be the first examinee to use his spatial portal among the others.”



For a moment, more and more onlookers focused their attention on Moss. BT006’s level 10 hell difficulty was too attention-grabbing, and most would say Moss’s choice was outlandish. Out of more than 10,000 examinees, only a few chose the same test as Moss.

Michaels, the Education Bureau’s director, sitting in the front row in front of Elroy, turned around with a livid expression as he said in a questioning tone, “Director Elroy, will Moss be okay? A level 10 hell difficulty test is no joke!”

Elroy knew Michaels was angry, so he dared not answer his question yet. Elroy only smiled bitterly. He knew Moss would pick a level 10 test but never expected him to choose the hell difficulty.

Elroy was familiar with BT006’s tests. They weren’t intended to scare the examinees but were terrifying compared to the other hell-difficulty tests.

He felt regretful when he saw the tests and did not tell Na’er to notify Moss immediately. Still, he knew Moss was not a rash and impulsive person.

While Elroy regretted not speaking to Na’er about the BT006 tests, he began to look forward to Moss’s performance. He was eager to see how Moss would face BT006’s tests.
