My Space-Time System

Chapter 113: That was too smooth.

"Now for those afraid that it would be a theory-based exam you have nothing to fear. My exam is simple, just cast all the spells we have treated so far and you will pass.

Easy right?" Professor Gibson said with a smirk as some of the students couldn't believe their ears.

'Well, that makes things a lot easier for me.' Blake saw the basic magic exam as a way by which professor Gibson wanted to give them free points.

Even if they were mentally drained, casting arcane spells wasn't meant to be difficult for students of the elite class, and?for people at the top half of the elite class it was a walk in the pack.

After close to 1 hour 30 minutes of waiting for his turn, Blake was finally called up to cast all arcane spells they had treated. He started with the levitation spell and within 5 minutes he perfectly cast the arcane attack spell, mana ball. The mana ball is a concentrated ball of mana that would explode on contact.

The completion of the mana ball marked the end of the exam for him, and after receiving his 10000 points, Blake went to the lightning mastery class.

Members of the elite class had faced one of their fears, but it was time to face the last for the first part of the trimester and that was elemental mastery class.

With the elemental mastery class divided into different elements, the elite class divided into different groups as they branched to their different elemental classes.

It was after every member of the lightning mastery class was seated did professor Langston walk out of a warp gate.

"Good day everyone." Professor Langston said with a smile and his usual energetic tone.

"I am here to announce the results for the lightning the mastery exam so let's get this over with. Coming in 3rd position..." Before professor Langston could continue with the announcement, he was interrupted by murmurs coming from the members of his class.

"Is this a dream?" A blonde student couldn't help but ask because even the basic magic exam seemed too good to be true and with professor Langston's announcement, it being a dream was more convincing.

"Announcement for which exam?"

"Did we have an exam that I wasn't aware of?"

The entire class was confused and with everyone talking at the same time, it became quite rowdy.

"Oh, so sorry I forgot to tell you what the exam was. Seems I was faster than my shadow, yet again." Professor Langston immediately apologizes when he realized what was going on.

"We the elemental mastery professors have decided to use every one of your battles in the knockout exam in grading your level of mastery over your main elements."

"That is not fair!" Those who hadn't performed well in the knockout exam protested against the decision.

"I know many wouldn't agree with the decision but it is the only option unless you all want another knockout exam that is?" Immediately they heard about the possibility of another knockout exam everyone calmed down and listened to him because they were in no condition for another knockout exam.

"For those that are afraid because they hadn't gone far in the knockout exam, you don't have to worry because the mode of assessment isn't based on how far you went in the tournament, but by your performance with your main element." Professor Langston explained.

"Even if you were knocked out in the first round it doesn't matter, as long as you put on a good fight and displayed your prowess in your main element, you passed." Professor Langston smiled when he saw the students were ready to listen.

"Back to where I stopped. Coming in third position, Layla, with 6000 points.

The second position, Camilla with 8000 points.

And in first position, Blake with 10000 points." At this point, no one was surprised that Blake was at the top of the lightning mastery class. All the feats he had accomplished since the beginning of the trimester made them wonder if it was the same lightning element they had awakened.

The same thing had happened in the other elemental mastery classes. For the fire class, Luciano had undoubtedly gotten the first position followed by Castiel who had gone quite far in the knockout exam with only the fire element and then Ansgar 3rd.

As for the earth elemental class, Brian came in first position for displaying his prowess with the earth element and also lasting to the 4th round even though he didn't have many offensive abilities. In second place was Haldor even though he was knocked out very early in the exam.

...

After the supposed elemental mastery exam, Blake met up with the rest at the canteen where they had lunch together.

"So the exams are over just like that?"

Blake was feeling quite odd. He had been expecting an action-packed day, but everything had gone on too smoothly.

"I still finding it hard to believe that the same school trying to kill us some days ago are making things so easy." Brian couldn't help but voice his thoughts.

"I love the free points so I don't mind..." Luciano said before taking a bite of his steak.

"Right now their motive doesn't matter because I will finally get a good night's sleep..." Castiel said with dilated eyes.

"Yeah, that reminds me. With the number of points I have gotten, I can finally get a high-grade armor at the exchange point." Blake became excited when he remembered about the armors and their functions.

"Now that you mentioned it, I am not yet sure of what to get with my points..." Luciano said with his hand on his chin.

"Unlike you guys that can afford almost anything at the exchange point, some of us can't, so don't rub it in our faces..." Brian said with a bleeding heart.

"Sorry..." Both Blake and Luciano smiled sheepishly when they realized that they were making the others jealous.
