BXBX NOVEL Chapter 655 Class Tests
Replication of emblems was challenging to manage and very pricey!
It required enchantments, energy conversion circles, and blacksmith skills to make. That was three of the four paths of creation!
"You.. created...?!"
"Let me go sort things out first." Emeros smiled as he walked towards the classroom.
All the checkers were frightened stiff at what had happened. Many had just witnessed how the teacher, Emeros, broke the bones of a student who called him names. And many had heard of the news of the blazing barbecues that his class had made. Many vowed to invoke retribution in the tests!
But now, all the students had used their Teacher's Judgment, and they trembled.
"You! How do you have twenty emblems?!" A teacher demanded.
Many others drew closer, examining the scenario.
"There are no existing rules against this, fellow Teacher." Emeros smiled. There was an emphasis on the use of 'fellow' to indicate equality, which caused the teacher to tremble in anger.
"Create one? Disregarding the high chances of your lies! Those emblems are official school equipment! No rules against owning emblems are set, but creating imitations of the school properties are-"
"Is this an emblem?" Emeros raised his hand.
On his hand is a strange glyph made of wood.
"This is not an emblem of the school. I merely crafted the spells that the emblems have and replicated them. It acts only as an Energy Conversion Circle and Enchantment spell that I gifted to my students. Are there laws against these?" Emeros smiled as he poured mana inside the glyph.
The same reaction appeared.
Everyone trembled. But they couldn't understand how the wood managed to do what only those emblems could do and resonate with the school.
"Answer me. Did I commit a crime in doing this?" Emeros asked again.
No one could reply.
Emeros ignored them and moved towards the classroom.
Several Third-year students were watching and didn't know what to do.
Emeros's young appearance didn't make him look threatening, and merely stood by.
"Teacher Emeros... Teachers are not allowed to."
CRACK! CRACK! CRACK!
The three students were wrapped in the vines, and their bones cracked.
"AHHHH!"
"A call for Teachers' Judgment are important events. And you three stopped twenty of them."
It happened so fast, and the broken and crushed bodies of the three were tossed to the side.
Emeros ignored them and moved into the hall. As he entered the hall, he found the checkers already outside, trembling in fear.
The students of Emeros had their hands out. Although they were not harnessing energy, the checkers lost their esteemed forms. Still, they were harnessing magic while Emeros gave them casual waves.
"Get back! Get back!" One of the checkers shouted.
"Are you threatening my student?" Emeros asked.
The students all saw Emeros and quickly dispersed their energy.
"Teacher Emeros! I...! I...!"
"Teacher Emeros! Command your students to"
"So you do know me. And you know that these are my students?" Emeros frowned.
"Eep!" One of the students realized his mistake.
"Hindering another student from taking the test...? Hmm... And it seems it's a collective effort. This test sets my future, and you are hindering it by stopping my students from taking the tests. I, Teacher Emeros, give judgment. According to the school rules, for disrespecting a teacher through feigning ignorance of my class, for deliberately stopping a student from taking a test, for working as an organized group to bring one class down, the total points that each student receives is thirty points! Furthermore, all the classmates in their respective classes will receive a minus point of half of what they have for acting as a group to undermine an entire classroom!" Emeros declared.
The school began to glow as it accepted the orders of Emeros.
The students all had horrified looks. Thirty and fifteen points were vital for this exam! It was impossible to claim all thirty points, and they will surely drop in the rankings!
"Furthermore, since it is exam period, the overall increase in points of my students will be calculated, and a further subtraction of your scores will be added on top of the thirty, and your classmates will receive half the deduction of what you get. So, pray that my students don't do well. Now, carry out your duties! Dismissed." Emeros shouted as he turned away.
The checkers all collapsed.
Zwelus watched from the outside and chuckled as Emeros approached.
"Did I impress you, Senior teacher, Zwelus?"
"Yes. One of the hindrances has been beautifully removed. But there are more to come, Teacher Emeros. The feathers you ruffled are quite... problematic."
"The feathers of that Crow still are the problematic feathers. As for the rest, no one in the Floating Continent can outmaneuver my counter plans."
"We shall see. We also have our own examinations." Zwelus gazed up.
"It should be any time now..." Zwelus waited as more and more teachers were allowed to enter the hall.
Teacher Crea arrived and was shouting from afar a few minutes later.
Emeros only smiled and gave casual responses to the challenges of Crea.
Meanwhile... inside the classroom.
"Done." Mackerel completed the exam as the energy conversion circle assigned to him for the test had been fixed.
The Energy Conversion Circle was resolved and even surprised the checker. Not even a Third Year student could be that fast!
Mackerel left the room.
"The teacher said that the entire class is ranked for him to pass. So if a student can ace and earn many points and increase the classroom's rank, he would have this stage cleared. Before fighting a class, we must do our best to be seen as worthy! I have to take advantage of this! He has allowed my eyes to evolve! I will not fail, teacher!" Mackerel decided as he ran off towards another exam in the Energy Conversion Circle.
BOOM!
On the other end of the room, Chevik easily defeated the second-year student.
The Cultivation Battle Technique for Force Users was a contest of strength. But Chevik knew that his opponent would use all of his power.
Yet, against the battle technique of Chevik that was refined from his fights with Serene and Emeros, he had grown strong.
"You... cheated...!" The second-year student cursed.
"Shall I call the teacher once more?" Chevik revealed the glyph.
"You said that if I defeated you in a contest of Force, I would receive full marks..."
"You... were just evading my attacks and...!"
"You didn't specify that I had to meet your cultivation strength head-on. My movement techniques require force." Chevik demonstrated as his legs began to release a powerful force of energy.
Emeros had combined the Crow's knowledge with the various movement techniques that Blitzers and Ravagers used. These two jobs were not present even in the Continents Above the Sky, so the checker faced a totally different form of warfare.
"Well? Will you grant me my score? Or shall I call my teacher?"
"You... receive full points..." The checker trembled as he marked the paper with a perfect score.
"Thank you." Chevik smiled and left the room.
When he went out, he saw Quinn and Anna leaving their respective rooms. The three shared a meaningful look. All had the same thing in mind.
Mackerel was already starting his second exam, and Chevik saw it.
"That freak's already in another room, huh? I, his senior, can't leave it all to him!" Check rushed towards another cultivation room while Quinn and Anna visited their respective classrooms.
Outside, the doors to the second floor were opened. A tremendous pressure appeared and pressed down on all the teachers.
Many of the teachers quickly fell to their knees as the pressure mounted. Only the Senior Teachers could remain standing, and even Emeros had to use his staff to keep himself from falling.
"Teachers. The Teachers Examination has begun." An ancient voice was heard.
Several Pedagogs could be seen standing above. And with them were three middle-aged men who hovered above the sky.
Emeros could feel a powerful energy from the three men flying above.
"A Cardinal with a Crown's Potential..." Emeros saw them.
"So it is true... The ones presiding over this exam are the Pedagogs. And the guests here to observe our test... are Two Star experts of the Continent Above the Sky!" Zwelus was fighting the urge to gaze up at the sky as the pressure of immense gravity pressed on him.
