"How do you think we cheated?" Aurora asked.

"It's not obvious, surely you must have brought people from outside to get rid of the creatures for you, it is impossible that you could have killed all those high-level creatures by yourself" John said using logical reasoning to put the people of his side.

Although John had a high score, none of the monsters were beyond level 3, on the other hand, Aurora and her group even had level 6 monsters, although all three managed to reach level 5 it still wasn't very realistic.

"That's impossible, the forest had been blocked by innumerable soldiers, and a space seal was placed so that no one can be transported in or out of the forest" said Aurora.

But before John could open his mouth, Chris continued.

"All these arrangements were arranged by the education magistrate, unless the magistrate allows entry to the exam, it is impossible to enter the forest, but everyone knows that the magistrate is a righteous person who is known by the masses for his impartiality with people it is impossible for him to do something as dishonorable as cheating"

Once these words left Chris's mouth, the magistrate's face turned ugly, as did all the people around him, some contained laughter while others nodded.

These words were addressed to everyone to remember that, if there was a case of cheating, the first suspect was the magistrate, but more than anything it was to make fun of John since everyone knew how useless he was, to obtain those results the only way was that he cheated, plus it wasn't the first time he'd done this.

Being teased in such a way John's face turned ugly, but an idea came to his mind.

"Everyone doesn't think it's rare that a group of rank 5 can kill a level 6 creature, everyone knows that the difference in strength of rank 5 and 6 is more than 10 times it's impossible for them to defeat a creature of level 6." creature of level 6, I propose that to prove that you did not cheat one of you fight with a deadly warrior of rank 6" said John

Usually between the ages of 15 and 18, the regular strength average would be rank 2 or 3 while prodigies would make it to rank 3 between 16 and 17 years old and reach rank 4 between 18 and 19 years old, and they are considered the innate cream of the crop anywhere, as they still have a way to reach rank 5 or 6 in a short time, so they are sought after by all factions, while a part of the people reach rank 4 between the ages of 18 and 20, and there is even a chance to reach rank 5 in the years to come in the mid-20s, although they are not treated as prodigies no matter where these people go they are the top, on the other hand the people who stagnant unless they make big contributions and merits they won't get much attention if their initial performance wasn't up to standards.

(n.t: this average only applies to people who train as martial artists or become magicians which is only part of the population, the rest just live as normal people among the first rank at most.)

When John said this, everyone agreed with his suspicions after all rank 6 is called the true rank as one gains the ability to fly as well as physical strength and magic power density and Prana is increased by least 10 times, being considered true experts only below rank 7 and above.

It was understandable that no one believed that a group of 3, rank 5s, could defeat a level 6 creature that is equal to a rank 6 expert.

Even though everyone agreed that the group of three people, rank 5s were prodigies based on their ages, and could reach rank 6 in the next two 2 years, and even rank 7th in their early 20s, It's not uncommon for these people to doubt the strength of the three against a rank 6.

"Okay, you can test our strength"

Chris knew that arguing with this person was a waste of his words, the only way to end all this is to finish off the opponent so they don't get up again.

Once Chris said that John showed a sneer, thinking the group was an idiot "Go ahead" John said to a guard standing on the podium, he was a rank 6 who was close to reaching rank 7.

The man once heard the order and appeared in front of Chris while the surrounding people made room for them.

"Brat you really have bad luck, but don't worry I'll finish you quickly after paralyzing your legs... hahaha" said the man while mocking he even made everyone around hear his mockery, he knew that the magistrate would save him from trouble as long as when I don't kill the brat in front of him.

Once Chris heard this he frowned, he thought to get rid of this guy fast, but now he would not only snub the guard, but would leave him scarred for life.

"Start"

Once the start signal was given, the man's body glowed in a rather thin light, this light is magic with no physical strengthening attribute, real physical fighters used Prana for strengthening, but due to the difficulty of using it, not many fighters low level physicists know how to use it, so they go for the solution of using magic it's not as good as using Prana, but it's easier to use.

Once he increased his strength, the man disappeared in front of everyone so that in the next instant he appeared in front of Chris, he put all his strength into his fist to hit Chris's stomach and make him lose his breath, and then finish off with a roundhouse kick so he could break the legs of his opponent, once he did everything in the blink of an eye he took a step back leaving a cloud of dust.

When everyone thought that they would see Chris lying on the floor with his broken legs, the dust cloud calmed down, but everything was silent, a young man standing as calm as possible as if he hadn't flinched an inch, while around Chris a thin layer of green surrounded him.

Everyone knew what it was, they knew that the boy is a wind user the cloak surrounding him was condensed wind as a sweep around him would not only protect him from damage but even repel attacks.

At that moment Chris compressed the wind like a bullet in his hand and slammed it into his opponent's stomach pushing him back.

*crack*

Once the bullet touched him, the sound of breaking bones was heard, in contrast to the sounds the guard did not seem to have suffered from broken ribs, but he did lose his breath.

*BOOM*

In that careless moment Chris covered his hand from a small cyclone and delivered a rank 5 full force blow to the guard's face.

Taking advantage of the moment, Chris created small wind needles to destroy all the lower nerves in the man's lower body.

Chris was not going to miss any opportunity to kill the man, therefore he would paralyze him, but he would not do it in public so when the wind bullet hit him despite the ribs they seemed to be fine the truth is that they were broken, probably in an hour's time his ribs would move and he would notice that they are broken, as for the lower part of the man's body even though he seemed fine now, tomorrow you will see that he is paralyzed losing the lower part of his body as all his nerves and meridians were severed.

The man being sent flying so easily by a child who is not even half his age became enraged and because of the shame he couldn't take it anymore and used recovery magic to lessen the pain and immediately used physical hardening to do your body stronger.

After all he believed that by using this magic the boy would no longer be able to hurt his body due to how robust he would be.

But getting up he saw that Chris was still surrounded by the small cyclone, when a black flame appeared in the young man's hand.

This hell flame was not the combination of fire and darkness powers that she normally used, but rather one created through the condensation of her dark power and the surrounding fire element in the environment, like Lillia does, as she if he used the first one the man in front of him would not be incapacitated, but would turn to ashes in a matter of seconds.

Once Chris condensed a flame that wouldn't kill the man, he smashed the hellfire into the cyclone causing them to combine, making it appear as if the cyclone turned into a storm of hellfire.

At that moment he moved the storm of flames covered the field and attacked the man.

The man seeing that got scared, leaving the battlefield would be considered his loss, but if he receives that attack even though with the physical hardening he could resist the damage from the flames of hell to a certain extent, this fire is known for its ability that once they touch the body will not go out until devouring all the magic power of that person, only if the person is powerful enough can he get rid of the flames of hell, that or be a user of light.

The guard knew that once he loses all his magical power at the hands of the flames, he would be a toy at the hands of the young man in front of him, he did not think about it anymore and left the stage, he knew that, if he was totally defenseless in front of this young man, he would take revenge by making him suffer and even if he tortured him no one would blame the young man, after all, all the people saw how arrogant he was at the start of the battle, making his defeat even more miserable, making him lose all face.
