"Don't want to exercise? Then learn some passive spells."

Chapter 175 Is this Tier 2?

the next day.

The grand finale of the trial took place at the school camp.

Principal Blake delivered an important speech, inspiring all the students and congratulating them on completing the trial a month ahead of schedule.

The students looked dejected upon hearing this.

The trial was going well, so how did someone suddenly beat it?

I can't feel happy at all!

Countless students muttered to themselves.

But when Celia and the others went on stage, all the muttering stopped.

They all had only one thought—

A cute girl squad?!

Why not debut as a campus idol!

People have already recognized her as this year's Saintess candidate, and discussions have begun.

At the same time, they felt relieved.

No wonder they're so powerful; they were carefully selected from all over the empire as the five strongest individuals.

Then someone below said:

Why choose only the Holy Maiden and not the Holy Son?

"Because there is a Holy Lord."

"Then why not choose the Holy Lord?"

"You dare say that? Are you out of your mind?"

"..."

After Doris finished her speech as captain, Blake said, "As the third team in the school's many years of history to complete the Ancient Ruins during the trial, and the first team to complete the raid on their first visit to the ruins, we have decided to make their final boss raid the grand finale of this closing ceremony so that others can learn from the experience of the raiding team."

His words immediately drew cheers from countless students.

Knowing that someone conquered the dungeon is like telling your neighbor about eating three pounds of bread yesterday; they might discuss it briefly.

But if there is actual video footage, then it's a different story.

Everyone was curious about how he could eat three pounds of bread.

Just like now, everyone is curious about how they conquered the ruins.

Keep in mind they're only at the second tier!

Over the years, besides trying to crack the rules of the Lost Lighthouse, the researchers of various ancient ruins have spent most of their time determining under what circumstances they can pass the Lost Lighthouse.

The conclusion was already known—

Only third-tier teams that are about to enter fourth tier have a chance to successfully conquer the area.

In addition to limiting players to Tier 4, the Lost Lighthouse also restricts the number of players per team. Teams with more than five players will be assigned to different mirror worlds after entering the Lost Lighthouse.

When a group enters the lighthouse, the lighthouse door will lock, preventing other groups from entering. Mages below the fourth rank obviously do not have the ability to unlock the door—except for Celia, who has been guided by Ross.

Otherwise, we would have cleared the ruins long ago using sheer numbers.

Instead of a top-tier Tier 3 team, the researchers encountered an unremarkable Tier 2 team that cleared the ruins.

Not to mention the students, even the mentors were curious about how the Saintess Squad managed to clear the Lost Lighthouse.

Blake returned to his position and handed the rest over to the facilitating mentor.

After a series of selections and presentations, and as many students eagerly awaited the end, the final footage of clearing the ruins was projected onto the stage in front of them.

The projection starts from the ninth floor.

Ten terrifying demonic creatures, radiating an aura of terror, appeared before everyone's eyes through the Yesterday Replay spell, stunning them all.

Just as everyone was wondering how the girls would solve the problem, they witnessed the Saintess Squad crushing ten Tier 3 monsters with the help of scrolls and potions.

"What? I thought it would be really powerful, but it's just an ordinary monster."

"I can kill these monsters that only have strong physiques but no corresponding spells by myself."

"Then why don't you go and kill them?"

"Because I don't want to waste so many scrolls."

"So you killed them with scrolls, huh? Oh well, a game won't be a game if you just pay to win!"

"..."

Everyone is discussing it, and the consensus is that clearing levels by using potions and scrolls is meaningless, doesn't demonstrate strength at all, and has no value for learning.

Some people have even started looking down at their wristbands.

Faced with this situation, the others who already knew the truth said nothing, but simply watched with smiles.

Soon, the monsters on the ninth floor were cleared out, and the saintesses headed to the top of the tower to face the final battle.

The outstretched wings gradually silenced everyone.

Their voices reached everyone's ears.

"what?!"

"That's actually the legendary mount of the sea god?"

"It looks terrifying."

The battle was about to begin, and the scroll potion tactic, which had just demonstrated its overwhelming power against ordinary elite monsters, was now much less effective against the Blue Winged Seahorse.

Because it uses magic to counter, and can also dodge or blow away threatening spells.

At the same time, its defense far exceeds the third-tier limit stipulated by the Lost Lighthouse. One or two spells are just a tickle to it, requiring continuous spell bombardment.

Everyone could see that the Saintess Squad was at a disadvantage as soon as the battle began.

This continued until Celia decided to destroy the ghost ship.

The crystal arrow, imbued with all of Celia's magic, destroyed the ghost ship below, a scene recorded by Celia's bracelet.

The version shown on stage was an edited version, compiled from the records submitted by the five participants and edited by the school's instructors, allowing everyone to see the power of that arrow.

And the pollution storm that erupted after the ghost ship was destroyed made them understand why such a terrible pollution storm had occurred back then.

At this moment, everyone retracted their idea that the Saintess Squad had cleared the level entirely by throwing gold coins at it.

Because with the Blue Winged Seahorse, the scroll, a form of spell that cannot completely lock onto a target, is much less effective than spells cast by oneself.

Without the protection of the ghost ship, the girls displayed powerful magical attacks, almost instantly killing the Blue Winged Seahorse. Later, when the Blue Winged Seahorse entered a low-health berserk state, the intimidating power it displayed shocked everyone.

"This level of strength... it's already at the fourth tier, right?"

"This is terrifying. Is it even possible to clear the level with a leader of this strength?"

"Now I know why no team has been able to clear the game for so many years."

"All the puppets are damaged. How did you manage to complete the game under these circumstances?"

Countless people are born with curiosity.

Then they saw Celia, who had destroyed the ghost ship, step forward.

They gulped down the mana-restoring potions like they were free.

Despite the ferocious attacks of the Blue Winged Seahorse, it was like a small boat facing a storm, yet it could never be capsized.

Until the ice cone missiles in the sky successfully converged, smashing the Blue Winged Seahorse, which was trying to fly up, down and leaving it in a near-death state.

Finally, at the cost of completely shattering the high-grade magic crystal, Celia imprisoned the dying Blue Winged Seahorse, allowing Doris to deliver the final blow.

Finally, the second wave of pollution storm engulfed everyone. The camera then switched to Phil in the background, where he saw a strong, divine light emanating from Celia, shielding everyone from the storm's onslaught.

This concludes the film.

The entire square remained silent for a long time.

Is this a second-tier mage?

Are these first-year students in the same year as us?

Are those ice spikes and freezes really something a second-tier mage could use?!

Bang bang bang——!

No one knows who started it, but applause began to ring out until it erupted into a thunderous clapping sound that shook the heavens and the earth.

Everyone is still reminiscing about this battle.

Blake then brought the five girls up on stage again and signaled to the host mentor to let Celia, who played an important role, give a speech.

Completely taken aback by this turn of events, Celia was utterly bewildered. She habitually said modestly, "I was just doing my duty. Doris was the one who killed the leader in the end. Without her sword, we would all be dead."

Doris: "?"

Three more chapters to go, I'll write them slowly~

Chapter 176 The Flowers of the Star Spirit Tree

"You're leaving already?"

"Aren't you spending the Lunar New Year at school?"

After the trial concluded, the students returned to school in batches under the guidance of their mentors, and then the official holiday began.

The five girls who had fought together were also parting ways.

Doris crossed her arms, her eyes reddening, and turned her head away: "Hmph, after this separation, we'll be competitors from now on. You might as well give up now."

“If Doris can convince us, then abstaining isn’t out of the question,” Benovia said with a slight smile.

Celia waved to them: "See you next year, everyone!"

"goodbye!"

After parting ways with the other candidates for sainthood, Celia carried her luggage and prepared to go to her dormitory to unpack, but bumped into someone downstairs.

Mil looked at Celia with a complicated expression. He hesitated for a moment, then mustered his courage and said, "Celia, are you going back to Starash Town? I'll take you."

"No, thank you. I have hands and feet, I don't need anyone to take me," Celia said indifferently.

Mir watched her enter the dormitory building and finally sighed with melancholy.

"Nosen, Nosen, are you really taking any action? Celia has improved so much, are your actions really effective?"

From the videos shown at school, Mir saw a strong side of Celia. He used to think that Celia would never become a saint, but now he felt that Celia was the one most likely to become a saint.

With such a strong opponent, they will inevitably attract more attention, which will further diminish their chances.

Mir felt extremely uncomfortable.

It seems that starting from the second level, Celia has become increasingly distant from her classmates.

He sent the information to Norson.

After a long pause, Norsen replied, "Why didn't you listen to me earlier? If you had listened to me then, things wouldn't have turned out like this."

Mil: "..."

……

After tidying up her things, Celia left the dormitory and saw Mir still standing outside, somewhat surprised: "Why are you still here?"

“Celia, I…”

"goodbye!"

Celia nodded politely and left without looking back.

She first went to have a meal with Ainars, then went to report to Elena, before leaving the school and boarding the patrol car bound for Southland City, a city near Starash Town.
