Chapter 11

One who could suppress the entire crowd.

Such was the power of a tier-three magister!

The intense aura that erupted from Cass’s body was unmistakably something tempered through hundreds of battles after killing countless vicious beasts and enemies.

To put it bluntly, all the apprentices present were rookies. How could they withstand Cass’s terrorizing aura?

As for Austin, the pressure of Cass’s powerful aura had allowed his cells to evolve again.

“Ding… The host has received external mental stimulation. Cell evolution. Obtained the abilities: Intimidation Lv.1 and Deterrence Lv.1!”

“Four tier-three magisters and one tier-four magister? I feel like shaking hands with them and getting to know them!”

When other people saw the experts, they were in awe and looked up to them.

But Austin was different.

In Austin’s eyes, these powerful magisters were like hot cakes that he wished he could pounce on them and take a bite.

“Too bad I’m not familiar with them.”

“It’s certainly unrealistic to spend a long time connecting with these experts without exposing my system and abilities.”

Austin sighed and lamented.

There was still an enormous gap between him and a tier-three magister.

It would take a long time to initiate body contact through shaking hands to evolve his cells.

Austin certainly could not hold hands with any of them for long periods.

Unless…

Austin’s eyes lit up as he stared at Miss Hika.

A thought flashed across his mind—hit on her!

Study for the rise of the nation.

Wait no, hit on her for the evolution of my cells!

As a tier-three magister, Miss Hika was naturally sharp with her senses.

She sensed an intense gaze on her and discovered Austin soon.

“Wearing such ordinary clothes for the exam?

“He’s either a fool or an arrogant fool.”

Hika shook her head and looked away.

It was clear that she treated Austin as a foolish and arrogant lecher.

Cass waited for a moment after silencing the crowd with his aura before speaking slowly. “I’m sure many of you have received the news.”

“That’s right. The person beside me is the branch president of the Thunder Magister Guild, Mr. Chuan Yi!”

The branch president of the Thunder Magister Guild!

Upon hearing Cass’s introduction, everyone present was shocked even though they had already guessed Elder Chuan’s identity.

Cass continued concisely, “President Chuan came here in search of some fresh blood for the Thunder Magister Guild.”

“So I won’t beat around the bush anymore. The difficulty of this official Magister examination has increased a little bit!”

The increase in the difficulty of the exam caused a commotion among the apprentice magisters.

Cass continued, “I’m sure all of you are aware of the details of the magister exam. Survive the Vicious Beast Town overnight and hunt down at least one low-level Vicious Beast.”

“And now, we have thrown four mid-level vicious beasts into the town and one injured high-level vicious beast.”

Mid-level vicious beast!

High-level vicious beast!

Everyone gasped.

To begin with, the mortality rate in the official magister exam was not low.

Now, there were four intermediate-level beasts and one advanced-level beast.

Was that not the same as sending them to their graves?

Some of the apprentice magisters could not help but feel a little resentful.

Cass snorted, “The exam has not begun. Those who are afraid of death and want to withdraw can scram now!”

Some whispered.

Some looked hesitant.

Some remained silent.

After a while, a few people left the transport station.

Cass did not bother about them as he sneered and continued, “This time, anyone who can kill the mid-level vicious beasts will be accepted into the Thunder Magister Guild.

“If you can kill that injured high-level vicious beast, you will be accepted into the Thunder Magister Guild’s main hall, where you will also meet the Thunder Magister Guild’s head— Thunder Magister Lord Ray!”

Boom!

The crowd was in an uproar.

Everyone became excited as their enthusiasm shot up.

A chance to meet a tier-five magister from the Thunder Magister Guild!

Was there anything more exciting than this?

The Thunder Magister Guild’s tier-five thunder magister was one of the three tier-five magisters in the nation, and one of the world’s top ten experts!

With such a peerless existence, just meeting him once was enough for anyone to boast to his descendants for a lifetime.

“I feel sorry for the few who quit out of the fear of death,” said Cass.

President Chuan, who was holding a walking stick, coughed and said loudly, “Don’t get too excited.”

“Compared to meeting the Thunder Magister, your life is more important. So you must weigh your abilities and act accordingly.

“Those four mid-level vicious beasts and the injured high-level vicious beasts could only move within a limited range.

“If you encounter them, but you lack the means to kill them, it would be best for you to retreat and save yourselves.”

Staying alive was more important than anything else!

Austin had a better impression of this amiable elder.

President Chuan had made the hot-blooded trainees regain their composure and reconsider their options.

Mid-level Vicious Beasts were much stronger than any low-level Vicious Beasts.

Moreover, there was one high-level beast in the mix.

Although the high-level beast was injured, a starving camel was still bigger than a horse.

A dozen or so apprentice magisters might not be enough to kill a high-level vicious beast.

“Alright, without further ado, let us head over to Vicious Beast Town.”

Without saying much, President Chuan and a few proctors led the way and walked through the transportation station onto the railway platform.

Transport stations and platforms had all been modified to defend against the beasts.

Of course, this place was safe since it was still within Faye City.

Outside Faye City.

Austin noticed that a magic barrier had been erected on both sides of the tracks.

Every once in a while, there would be a military checkpoint in order to provide timely support for unexpected situations along the railway line.

This was still just a defensive measure.

The transport vehicle itself was armed to the teeth.

Austin and his sister, Catherine, and the others crossed the transport station onto the platform.

They were all dumbfounded when they saw the transport vehicle parked beside the platform.

Everyone gasped with their eyes filled with shock.

It was the first time Austin had seen a “transport vehicle” after the apocalypse.

At first glance, it was simply a monstrous steel dragon!
