Rise of the Dark Witch

Red Lotus Swordsman Academy.

The long-awaited knight assessment is finally coming.

Three years of hard work will soon bear fruit in the next three days of assessment!

Deep beneath the academy.

In a space as vast as the Colosseum, a ten-meter-high bronze gate stands in front.

In front of the gate, fifty students from the Red Lotus Swordsman Academy stood.

Only the top fifty people in the school are eligible to participate in the knight assessment.

While waiting for the examiner to arrive.

Many of the students present were whispering.

Two of them are Anna and Yasi.

"Anna, please take good care of me during the next knight assessment!" Yasi said coquettishly, wrapping her arms around Anna's arms.

The old Anna would definitely have a dark face, wondering if Yasi was teasing her on purpose.

How could she, a lowly person of thirty, take care of a perennial top ten student in the academy?

But she is different now.

After several months of sparring with her brother Roja, her understanding of swordsmanship has improved greatly. If she simply compares swordsmanship, she can definitely run for the top three in the academy.

After learning "Fire Fighting Demonic Sword", she gained a new understanding of the use of magic power. She suddenly became much more proficient in various basic magic skills that she originally had a mediocre grasp of, perhaps due to a direct connection.

Although her physique, magic power, and mental power have not increased much, her overall strength has jumped from the top thirty in the academy to the top ten, which is 50-50 equal to Yasi.

If she uses the secret skill Flame Fighting Demon Sword, she will be confident of defeating the number one person in the academy.

So when faced with Yasi's words of begging for care, she just nodded slightly and said confidently: "Yasi, let's work hard together!"

"...Anna, you have changed a lot." Yasi said quietly, looking at Anna.

"Well, I have indeed become a lot stronger."

"No, I don't mean strength, but your mentality, your confidence, and your gentleness."

In the past, Anna seemed very confident, but in fact she was filled with inferiority complex.

In the past, Anna seemed very strong, but in fact she was very weak inside.

In the past, Anna seemed very kind, but in fact, there was a huge gap between herself and others.

But now Anna.

The glow of self-confidence comes from the heart, giving people an unshakable strength from the outside to the inside, and the barrier that surrounds the heart and is unwilling to contact others disappears.

"It's a pity that I'm not the one who changed you..." Yasi muttered a few words with regret, then hugged Anna harder, "Anna, if I marry your brother, can we be together forever?" Together?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Anna flicked Yasi's forehead wordlessly.

Anna thinks her brother is the best brother in the world. She doesn't care what others think of her. She thinks her brother is worthy of any woman in the world, let alone the jeweler's daughter Yas, even if he is a princess. .

But it was impossible for her brother to be with Yasi.

It's not that she doesn't like Yasi.

If she could have her favorite brother and her best friend together, she would be very happy.

It's just that the interests, personalities, and hobbies of Luo Ya and Yasi are too different. Every time they meet, although they seem to have a good relationship, she can feel that there are invisible sparks between them. Colliding.

They are not from the same group at all!

"Hey, Anna, don't you like me as a younger sibling?" Yasi asked, blinking her big eyes.

"Have you already called yourself sister-in-law?" Anna was even more speechless, "Do you really like Roja that much? So much that you want to marry him?"

"Because then the three of us can be together forever!"

"Yeah?"

Anna was noncommittal.

Suddenly, crisp footsteps sounded.

Everyone who was chatting a second ago suddenly fell silent.

The examiner is here!

Everyone present looked towards the examiner.

It was a heroic female knight, about twenty-five years old, wearing the uniform of the Knights.

Anyone who can serve as an examiner must be at least a senior knight.

He is only twenty-five years old, not much older than these students, but he has already become a senior knight and an examiner?

People's eyes are full of envy, jealousy, admiration... and other emotions.

"I am Susan, your examiner this time."

"This knight assessment is a joint examination of seven schools, with a total of 350 students from seven schools participating."

"Students from each school will lead to the assessment site through the Demon Realm Gate deep under their college."

"The location of this knight assessment is the Shadow Spider's lair."

Susan pointed to the door behind her, "Next, you will go to the shadow spider lair to hunt shadow spiders. The more you kill, the better your results will be."

"We will admit the top 30 students in this assessment to become members of the Knights."

There are 350 students in seven schools, and 30 students are admitted.

The acceptance rate is close to one in ten.

But most people present knew that they were just making up the numbers, and only the top ten in their grade could pass the knight assessment.

Although there are examples of thirty people from outside the country who successfully passed the knight assessment and became members of the knights, this kind of miracle may not happen once every ten years, and not many people expect this kind of miracle to happen to them.

Then, Susan continued:

"The Shadow Spider is a low-level monster with low speed, weak attack power, average defense, and its poison is not deadly enough..."

"The only thing that is more powerful is the ability to hide..."

"Their habit is to knock down the prey, wrap it up with spider silk, and keep the prey alive for three days before eating it."

"So even if you are defeated and captured by the Shadow Spider, you don't have to worry about your life being in danger. We will rescue you after the assessment is over."

"If you want to give up midway, you can use mental power to stimulate the admission emblem on your body. The admission emblem will emit a special spiritual force field that can make the shadow spider ignore you."

"The mental force field will last for three hours."

"During this time, you can go to the safe house and wait for the assessment to end."

"Remember, once you give up, the demon seal on you will be reactivated."

"So you must enter the safe house while the mental force field lasts. Otherwise, if the mental force field disappears and you are attacked by the shadow spider, the toxins of the shadow spider that are not fatal to people with magic power will kill you all at once. life."

Susan, the examiner, explained the precautions in detail to those present.

Regarding this knowledge, every student present has heard it explained countless times by teachers in the school.

Now they just want to start the knight assessment quickly and enter the shadow spider lair to hunt the shadow spiders!

After Su Su talked about the precautions for nearly an hour.

The examiner looked at the candidates who looked extremely impatient, then looked down at his watch, and finally said the words that shocked all the candidates.

"Next, I will activate the gate of the Demon Realm and open the passage to the Shadow Spider's lair. Please enter the examination room in an orderly manner."

As she spoke, Susan pressed her hands on the door and injected magic into the door.

Buzz buzz.

The gate of the Demon Realm shook.

The examiner Susan was slightly startled, "This magnitude of vibration..."

Click!

An inaudible cracking sound came from the door.

The sound was so slight, but in Susan's ears it was louder than any thunder! (End of chapter)
