The Devastator roared angrily, it swiped its arm diagonally then cones of bones were springing up towards Iode. He stood still and unmoved.
"Since I have an identity aura, maybe i can cast an advanced level spell" he thought.
"Sunbeam". A magic circle appeared on Iode's hands and beams of purple light scourged the bones up shoots and smeared the face of the Devastator.
The eyes of the examiners and the advanced level students almost popped out seeing Iode cast such spell, they couldn't believe what they saw.
While both the examiners and the advanced level students are flabbergasted, they have different train of thought.
The advanced level students thought of Iode as an advanced level mage who joined the low level students to learn healing magic from the basics, as that is the main magic learned and researched in the blue tower and the Rohanes Academy.
The examiners, confirming that Iode is the successor of Igor, knows that he's a one star mage and can't learn advanced level magic talk less of casting one, began brainstorming.
The Devastator roared more angrily and attempts to claw Iode with its long sharp claws. Iode casted a fire magic and flew to a safe distance. The Devastator would not give this tiny being a chance for smearing it face, it lunged towards him.
"Seems Tony was right all along, i have an identity aura which is usually attainable at the advanced level, why don't i try this, the advanced level book that was given to me, why don't i use it again". He said.
His eyes glowed purple, and a large magic circle with intricate signs in them appeared in Iode's hand, he said
"Beast summon: Triospinosaurus". Then a purple mist starts to gather and formed a very large hologram beast.
It was a 60 meter tall beast with length twice its height. With it fairly long arm, ending with long sharp claws, its long jaws filled with razor sharp teeth and most striking characteristics is its sails, which are three in number; two small sails at the neck and tail and a very large sail that ran through its back. It also has webbed feet.
This beast is known as Triospinosaurus, classified under the Mega Fauna type. While it doesn't have any special abilities, it greatly rivals those classified under the Mystical beasts.
With the domineering size of this colossal beast, the juvenile Devastator slowly backs off, knowing how much trouble its in. The hologram Triospinosaurus roared then swiped its claws at the Devastator and destroyed it with one hit.
Iode has passed his test in an overwhelming way. He unsummoned the Triospinosaurus and for the first time ever, he felt his mana depletes.
"That creature Summon sure consumes a lot of mana, no wonder it's rarely used".
As he was about to leave the arena, he felt something happen around his heart. No longer was one star swirling around the heart, now two additional stars had formed. He's now a three star mage. Iode couldn't believe this, all these years of trying and it took just one test battle to better him.
He was happy but he noticed, the whole arena was dead silent, if a pin were to fall it would be heard. He looked at the examiners, their eyes were widely opened and their mouths opened agape.
He looked at the whole arena, everyone had different expressions written on their faces, he saw Ian and Kyle, their expressions was close to funny, even Jaen wasn't left out.
Iode gulped as it was obvious that everyone in the arena was mesmerized, surprised with Iode's recent stunt. He attempts to leave the arena as quickly as possible but was called back by Bradford who still have the surprised face.
"Iode, you are to show yourself at the academy's senate building after the end of the test". Bradford said.
"Yes sir". Iode responded as he quickly left the scene.
"That anomaly mage, he's an advanced level mage, to cast that last spell, he must have a lot of mana in his mana vessel ".
"Yeah, i heard that spell consumes a lot of mana depending on the creature summoned, he must have a lot of mana to summon such colossal beast ".
"If he's an advanced level mage, why is he with us low level students ".
Iode was hearing different reviews and gossips about him left and right and he's now regretting casting an advanced level spell.
He got to his seat and he would not expect any less, they were all staring at him with different expressions written on their faces, surprised, curiousness, excitement, subtle fear.
"Will you all stop giving me such looks, I'm already embarrassed with all I'm hearing don't add to it". Iode said.
All eight of them kept staring at him and didn't even know what to say to him.
At the front sit of the arena, the examiners couldn't take their minds off what happened moments ago.
"He's a one star mage, i saw it, where did he get access to advanced level spells, they are not available outside, only in the academies and towers and it can't be taught to a low level mage, how did he do it". Bradford pondered.
"It not possible to have also inherited the memory of Igor right? it not reincarnation. Of all the successors of the original five none of them have memories and knowledge of their predecessors. This doesn't make any sense ". Sara said bewildered.
"How he knows about it will be known by the end of the day ". Pandavatton said.
