Magicians never make wishes

Chapter 100 Testing and Betting

For a moment, everyone looked around, curious about who the person in charge was talking about.

Although Ronan was curious about what kind of light he could measure, he was just going through the motions and naturally didn't need to go on stage for testing.

To his surprise, there were quite a few people like him.

He saw three other people walk onto the stage from the crowd, and he followed suit.

"My lords, please wait here."

The person in charge, with a fawning expression, pointed out the locations to Ronan and his group of four.

That was the area where the apprentices who had already passed the tests and been selected were located.

Adele looked at Ronan, who had been like an invisible man in the carriage, and now stood with those who met the criteria without even needing to be tested. The implication was obvious.

Her pride and resentment seemed to find an outlet; she pointed at Ronan and shouted, "It's not fair!"

"Why can he?!"

This roar seemed to ignite a powder keg among the many who had failed to qualify, instantly resonating with everyone.

"Yeah, why can they?!"

"At the very least, we should get it tested—"

"Who here isn't of high status? Why this discrimination?"

"Who isn't a reserve soldier?"

"And there's one who's not even a reserve!"

The sentiment is indignant.

Based on Ronan's attire, everyone judged him to be of the lowest status, and thus they all turned their anger towards him.

"quiet!"

The person in charge roared, making everyone's eardrums ring.

But these unsuccessful candidates were all from privileged backgrounds and pampered, and they wouldn't be so easily intimidated.

Here.

Indeed, this is true; those who were not selected are simply not selected now, it does not mean they will not be selected next time.

The significance of the reserves lies in this: they will have the opportunity to participate in the selection tests again next year.

Therefore, the person in charge would at most pick a few troublemakers to make an example of, but this was the first time he had ever seen such a large-scale outcry.

"These four adults have already qualified for admission and do not need to participate in the selection test," the person in charge patiently explained.

"You say so, so it is?"

"How did they get it? Why do we have to be selected while they don't?!"

"Yeah, yeah————"

Seeing that the crowd wouldn't stop, the person in charge's face darkened, and he harbored murderous intent.

These piece of trash, if it weren't for the extraordinary power protecting your families, I would have slaughtered you all one by one.

"Why don't you go and get tested?"

A man with light green hair and a gloomy smile spoke to Ronan.

Ronan decided to call him the Green-Haired, Smirking Man.

"Why aren't you going?" Ronan asked.

Everyone's urging you to get tested!

The green-haired, smirking man was about to resort to moral blackmail when Ronan surprisingly nodded and said, "Okay."

Although he was very unhappy with the green-haired, smirking man's purpose, he also wanted to test what the result would be.

However, if he just obediently went to get tested, there was a risk of being further disgusted by the other party, so Ronan said to him, "Why don't we get tested together and take a gamble?"

"What are we betting on?" The green-haired man with the sinister smile seemed intrigued.

"Let's bet on who has a higher color grade. If the grades are the same, the one with higher luminous intensity wins."

He learned from insiders that the luminosity levels of crystal balls, from low to high, are: white, green, blue, purple, and orange.

Only those reaching blue light levels can meet the standard.

"Interesting," the green-haired man said with a sinister grin. "What's the stake?"

"Let's see what you have, and see what I have."

Anyway, I won't lose.

He had cautiously expanded his mental domain at the scene and found that none of the people present had a mental strength comparable to his own.

The highest level he achieved was only about one-third of his pre-enhancement level.

The crystal ball displays a corresponding color based on the strength of one's mental energy.

Although I don't know exactly what color I can measure, it will definitely be higher than that of the green-haired, smirking man.

Ronan took out a small ball from his bag, its interior surging with violent energy. He had exchanged it for points earned from his writing fees before leaving the Mystic Arts Academy.

"Concentrated Element Orb, what can you offer?"

He looked at his opponent with utter disdain, his mockery overflowing. It was as if he was saying, "Hurry up and bring out your most valuable possession!" The green-haired, smirking man clearly didn't think he'd lose. He pulled out a small shield and said, "My Dragon Heart Shield is far more valuable than yours."

"And now?" Ronan took out another concentrated element ball.

"So-so, here we go."

The green-haired, smirking man was the first to walk towards the crystal ball.

Those watching immediately fell silent and instinctively held their breath.

They wanted to see for themselves just how big the gap was between themselves and those who could be admitted directly.

The green-haired man with a sinister smile reached out and placed his palm on the crystal ball.

In an instant, the crystal ball flashed with a rich purple light, which lasted for quite some time before stopping.

A series of exclamations of praise immediately rang out from the audience.

Previously, a person also observed a purple light during testing, but the light was weak and flickering was very difficult.

However, that is the best result achieved in the test so far.

But this apprentice, who had already enrolled, surpassed the best score the moment he made his move, his purple light blazing brightly, putting him ahead of everyone else.

Indeed, those who are qualified for admission possess abilities far exceeding those of others.

As for Ronan...

Upon seeing that the green-haired, smirking man possessed such limited strength yet still detected purple light, he could already guess what color light he himself could detect.

He calmly walked forward and said to the green-haired, grinning man who was still standing in front of the crystal ball, seemingly wanting to continue his display of power, "Make way, go down and rest after you're done."

"Still not giving up?" the other party said arrogantly, mockingly. "You'd better hand over those two beads obediently now, and I'll pretend nothing happened."

Ronan looked at his self-sun with a smile, as if he were watching a clown performance.

Seeing that Ronan didn't react, the green-haired man with a sinister smile chuckled and stepped aside.

He didn't go too far; he just stood to one side.

It allows you to quickly and closely observe the other person's expression after losing the bet.

When the crowd saw that someone else was going up to be tested, and it was the same person they had the most complaints about, they all immediately showed expressions of watching a show.

The green-haired guy in front was already so strong, how dare he go up there?

Ronan didn't care what others thought; he calmly extended his right hand and placed it on the crystal ball.

Suddenly, a strange power invaded his right hand and headed straight for his mind.

Then, the crystal ball suddenly burst forth with a dazzling orange light, the intense light shooting into the sky and spreading rapidly, instantly enveloping the entire area.

Everyone felt a stinging pain in their eyes and quickly closed them, unable to see what was happening in front of them.

At this moment, what Ronan held in his palm seemed no longer to be a crystal ball, but a blazing, dazzling orange sunset.

at the same time.

As the strange power used Ronan's body as a springboard to invade his mind, an unparalleled pressure emanated from his divine core, instantly crushing him into nothingness.

Bang.

In an instant, the crystal ball shattered, scattering countless glittering fragments all over the ground.

The bright lights faded, and the audience fell completely silent.
