"You're lucky this time, at least I still can't trust my cousin, Aaman," said Barsha as she lowered her hands again and she turned her gaze to the front where the big stage for the Heavenly Troops exam was about to begin.
Kaja just smiled and didn't respond. He had met so many people so far, people who were just boasting at the start were too many. In the past, he became a legend even when the name Thunder Fist was mentioned many people would tremble. It's good to be in a young body like this, that's how Kaja feels right now.
No one knowing him is probably one of his current strengths. In the past, he had always been proud of his name, now he had become like an ordinary person. And, it's quite fun.
Kaja also saw Barsha from behind, Kaja smiled a little, the granddaughter of his best friend was not much different from his old friend, Ganada. Their temperament is always fierce, but they will become good friends if we can keep up with them in battle.
The woman's body is ideal, certainly able to seduce many normal men. However, Kaja feels normal, he has become old with his age. In fact, during his lifetime he was the one who never had a wife, compared to Yonan and Ganada, who both had grandchildren.
Several people on the stage raised like sizable city steel. Four people lifted the object and entered the stage and in the center of the stage, the steel box was lowered.
The steel box is about 2 square meters in size and is in the shape of a cube.
Yarko walked over to the silver steel box. Its size, which is 2 square meters, of course, can be seen by everyone. Yarko was in the front corner of the box.
"Your first test is not difficult. Just give this box a scratch from your full strength. Use whatever weapons you have, and if there is a mark you leave on this box then you pass the first test."
Everyone listened to Yarko's loud words. There were some participants who felt this was an easy test, but there were also those who thought it was just a trap.
All participants have been marked with a number attached to their shirts. There were those who boasted from the Sword Clan of the Emerald Continent. He went up to the stage by climbing the stairs while carrying a large sword.
His name is Ando, he asked Yarko's permission to try it. Yarko agreed and allowed even with the artifact sword. All weapons are allowed in this first test.
Ando mounted his stance and got ready, he held the sword with both hands. He raised his sword back and with his full strength, the whistling wind collided with the energy overflowing from Ando's sword. All eyes were stunned to see Ando's attack that was so big aimed at the steel box.
Dug!
The power energy exploded like a mist. Everyone thought that the strong Ando would pass. How not, the power of his attack was very powerful.
The fog began to thin, Ando was seen still holding his sword and his sword did not scratch the steel box at all. In fact, restrained by a very thin layer that envelops the steel box.
This! This is
Everyone understands now, that apart from that steel is indeed strong there is a magic barrier used to protect the box. In the wizarding world, it was called an Array. Arrays are the power to protect something from attack.
The array is mounted on the steel box. Arrays themselves can be made by magicians with the lowest tier being Arrays of tier 3, that's the lowest. Some places or cities even installed tier 5 and 6 Arrays, very few people could install tier 7 or above Arrays.
For the steel box in the Sky Force's first test, it seemed to be an Array of tier 7 and above. Ando's sword power was restrained by the Array.
"Mr. Yarko, sorry in advance," Ando pulled his sword back, he looked exhausted from the sweat pouring out. The energy seemed unable to penetrate the shield from the box at all.
"I didn't know before that the box was shrouded in a shield Array, in fact, the Array was extremely powerful. If I may, I'd like to try it one more time," was Ando's plea. He wanted to bring out his strongest power.
Yarko smiled at Ando, "Okay, you can try again."
Yarko opened his right hand to invite Ando to try again. Ando nodded and thanked him.
Ando immediately took steps. He concentrated all of his energy on his sword, both of his hands blazing and enveloped in dense energy. Energy seemed to revolve around Ando's hands and sword. Like a hurricane composed of light energy, Ando pulled his greatsword backward. Prepare to throw all his energy.
Yarko stepped back a bit and allowed Ando to concentrate properly. This test, of course, must be able to pass those who are truly talented in order to maintain world peace.
Not only strong but also has the broad insight to see every condition he faces. Yarko is sure that the exam after the test that has been planned in the selection of members of the Sky Army will find people who are ready to bring world peace in the future.
This first trial was assisted by one of the best pillars of the Orpris continent. He was Gonan, a level 8 mage and he had already installed the most advanced tier 8 Array that people encountered today.
Tier 8 arrays are difficult to penetrate with any power unless the person has strong internal strength or he has a way to break the Array.
In this world too, Yarko thought of his best friend, Gonan. He was the greatest person in the wizarding world and became one of the strongest people on the Orpris Continent. Gonan set up the Array to really choose the right person to be a member of the Sky Army. Gonan contributes to the search for members of the Heavenly Army and becomes the main examiner in the first exam.
This time, Yarko wanted to see who could pass the exam this time. He was really very curious.
Explosion happened.
Boom!
Everyone was affected by Ando's burst of energy blowing his sword at full power. The sword seemed to ignite the moment before slashing at the steel box.
That's when a huge explosion occurred, the energy explosion caused a very strong whistling wind that could even smack anyone in the vicinity. The participants even had their faces hit by a spark of energy from the explosion.
Can Ando pass this first test?
Klang!
All eyes were on a large shiny object above them. The sun's rays can reflect off the flying object, glare. The object fell and the surrounding swordsmen jumped backward to avoid it.
The participants were shocked. It's a fragment of Ando's greatsword? Ando's sword broke and the shards flew and even fell on the place of the Sky Force test takers.
What does it mean???
Ando failed. Even Ando's full-strength sword couldn't touch the steel box and his sword broke in two. The participants then realized that this simple test was a tough one.
