Xue No was obviously not very happy and continued to be cold.

"Why don't you reflect on why you were so bewitched by a man you've only been with for two days? I'm not blaming you for the main responsibility. I know the main problem lies with this man. I wouldn't mind if you could have just eliminated him."

"Yukino~~~~"

Chaoyang looked at Yukino with pleading eyes, as she completely ignored him.

Yukino looked directly at Chaoyang with a powerful gaze.

"Can your head hold anything other than your lower body right now?"

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about it anymore. Let's talk about the next steps."

"That's what I wanted to say. Why did you invite these two here?"

Yukino didn't want to be too direct. The two of them were indigenous people, so there was no reason for her to get involved in the topic of their other world.

"Actually... Connie and Rabinie want to visit our world. I have an idea. And... I also want to give Philen the ability to visit my world at will."

Liang didn't give him any face and just snickered, revealing the essence of the matter.

"Pfft, to be frank, Chaoyang, do you want more options for sleeping with you in your bed?"

Chaoyang stood up and slammed the table. He said that everyone had a very strong stereotype about him and he had to improve it.

"No! Absolutely not! Okay, I already said we won't discuss this anymore! Even if I become a first-level magician, I'll ask Celie to teach me some magic that can copy things. The magic in this world has both concrete and abstract concepts.

Copying something so common shouldn't be a big problem... If possible, I'd also like her to teach me how to detect objects. After all, there's so much I don't know about the Dimensional Resonator. The idiot who gave it to me barely explained anything. Since there's a convenient magic spell that can reveal the type of poison, perhaps there's something similar.

At this time, Youyouzi said dissatisfiedly that she had probably heard the content.

"We already know all this stuff. The key is how to become a first-level magician. This is only the first round, isn't it? I heard the examiner for the next round is named Zanze... I actually know what the exam is about, and I already have a strategy. But the third round is the trouble. It's a direct interview with Celie, the closest thing to a goddess on this continent. So even if anyone here passes the second round, those who lack the strength will be rejected outright by her."

Rabinie had heard before that Chaoyang had a similar ability to predict the future, so he was only slightly surprised when he heard Chaoyang say these things.

"There's nothing we can do about that, right? Even if we knew, we still don't have enough strength. There's nothing we can do to change anything in two days."

After saying this, his face darkened.

[After all this hard work, is this still the result? ]

"Haaa! Then what's the point of taking the exam? Why not just do this from the beginning?"

This time, Youyouzi slammed the table in dissatisfaction.

"Hehe, there's a solution for everything. Don't underestimate the brains of modern people. But I'll have to ask Fulilian to give you some intensive training."

Chaoyang stood up as if he had a perfect solution.

"Everyone, gather at the Rabiner family training ground tomorrow for secret special training! I'll have Philen call on Freellian."

Chaoyang gave orders without hesitation.

"You're so rude! You're using it as your own..."

Seeing Chaoyang's frown as if it was natural, Rabinie hoped that his brothers would be quieter tomorrow.

"And now let's discuss the second exam..."

------------------

Two days later

The rest time is always short, and soon it was the day of the second round of exams.

The scattered royal tombs of the northern kingdoms

Explaining the exam in front of many examinees was the examiner Zanze, who had beautiful brown hair and a petite figure similar to Yuyuko and Fulilian. His expression was as unchanged as if he was paralyzed as he described the content of the exam.

"...The test is simple: reach the deepest part of the scattered royal tombs. Since I'm a pacifist and don't like to cause arguments, anyone who reaches the deepest part will pass."

At this time, questioning voices were heard from the crowd.

"This is a maze that no one has ever conquered! Countless adventurers have gone in and never returned. Is this Examiner Zanze's pacifism? Or is he simply trying to deny everyone a pass?"

"What are you talking about? Your goal is the pinnacle of magic, right? Whether it's untouched or not, for the existence you aim to become, these things must be overcome. It's not that you have to be a first-level magician to make the impossible possible, but that only those who can make the impossible possible can become a first-level magician."

Zanze turned his petite body and looked around at everyone.

Her hair suddenly began to move as if it were alive.

"Ugh, so disgusting, the way it moves is like a snake."

"You idiot, that's very rude."

Zanze ignored the whispers from the audience and simply divided his hair into 21 bundles, each of which was wrapped into a strange bottle, and then distributed them to the candidates present.

"Give this bottle to all of you first."

219. I can clear the level by myself, everyone prepare to win easily!

"This is?"

Everyone held the bottle and looked at it curiously. Only the people in Chaoyang's small group had been informed by Chaoyang in the previous meeting and knew that the bottle was an emergency escape device.

Including the content of the exam is exactly the same as Chaoyang said.

My confidence in passing the second round of exams without any pressure gradually increased, even though no one in this cemetery had been able to pass it yet.

"This is a golem developed by a first-level magician for escape. Break the bottle and it will appear. I'll carry you outside the labyrinth. Anyone who uses it will be disqualified. I won't allow promising talents to die. Tomorrow morning, the bottle will automatically break. That will be the time limit for this exam."

Mei Te Dai raised her hand to ask a question at this time.

"Then how can we prove we've been to the deepest point? For example, by obtaining some token or treasure?"

"No need for that. I will follow you in and reach the deepest part. Of course, I won't provide any help."

"How dare you say that? You're already causing trouble just by going in. A clone just appeared out of nowhere."

Chaoyang had already told his companions that there was a water mirror demon deep in the maze, and if too many people went in, it would cause trouble.

But Chaoyang raised his hand and asked a question at this time.

"Ms. Zanze, what if one person clears all obstacles and reaches the end, while others reach the end without much effort? In this case, will all those who reach the end be considered qualified?"

"Well, it's up to you whether you want to sit back and watch or wait for death."

"So, no matter what happens, we just need to reach the deepest part of the cemetery before dawn tomorrow, right?"

"Yes. If there are no further questions, then the test officially begins!"

Chaoyang felt relieved after hearing Zanze's promise.

The strategy for the second round of exams was extremely simple: Chaoyang would pass it alone, and no one else would enter.

Chaoyang immediately walked out of the crowd and cheered to everyone.

"Everyone! I have a proposal for everyone to 100% clear the game. I have unconditional analysis of the intelligence regarding this cemetery."

The rest of the team sat down at the same time.

"Haha, someone actually proposed teamwork before me? And he's a young guy..."

The second-level magician Duncan also planned to analyze the situation and try to recruit more people to join his team to pass the level together. Unexpectedly, Chaoyang was faster than him and did not even think or hesitate.

All the candidates originally planned to discuss with their own small groups, but after hearing Chaoyang wanted to share information, they looked at each other and nodded in confirmation, and decided to listen to what he had to say first.

"Young man, tell me your intelligence. Just spouting off the top of your head might discourage others from working with you. ...But since I can see the advantages of working together, I, an old man, am willing to join your team regardless of the outcome."

After Duncan finished speaking, he sat on the ground and waited for Chaoyang to speak. As Duncan led the other two people in the team, the girl Laofen and the middle-aged man Lishita also sat down.

"Are you serious? This guy is only a fifth-level magician?!"

It is obvious that the other exams do not trust Chaoyang very much.

"Use your brain more. The fact that he's a fifth-level magician and made it to the second round proves his extraordinary strength, doesn't it? And look at the magicians in his team—they're all exceptionally talented. If you can't see that, you'll never become a first-level magician."

The experienced Duncan directly refuted it with reason and evidence.

The others had also basically figured it out. Almost no one knew anything about this maze, so they gathered around it since there was no harm in listening.

In this way, everyone sat in front of the entrance of the magnificent ruins and started chatting as if they were on a spring outing.

Only Chaoyang stood up and explained to everyone like a teacher

"First, this is a maze from the Unified Period. It's full of traps and mechanisms, of course, and there are also gargoyles guarding it. However, considering the strength of everyone here, these shouldn't be too much of a problem. At most, some of the weaker ones will be killed. The biggest problem is the presence of monsters from the Mythological Age deep within this maze."

Hearing this, Zanze had a bad feeling.

I didn't expect that there was someone among the candidates who knew about this.

"It's a fragile monster without combat capabilities, but it can read the memories and other information of those who enter the labyrinth, then create copies of the original. These copies are physical, and possess the same magical powers, abilities, and even combat habits as the original. Furthermore, copies of the same person will regenerate after being defeated. ...There should be a few of you here who specialize in mind control magic, so let me preface this by saying that copies have no hearts, so they can't be bound by mind magic.

So you're essentially facing the challenge of Magic Infinity itself. If that's all, it wouldn't be the scariest thing. But what if a clone of a stronger candidate were to encounter a weaker candidate? For example, if a clone of Mr. Duncan appeared, who here is confident they can defeat him?"

"..."

Everyone looked at Duncan. There was no doubt that he was the best among them in terms of the amount of magic.

Everyone was thinking, if what Chaoyang said was true, then this exam would indeed be very troublesome.

"Most importantly, Miss Zanze just mentioned going in... This proves that the clone we're dealing with has a Level 1 magician added out of nowhere. Furthermore, even if we destroy it, if we can't quickly eliminate the Water Mirror Demon, it will continue to create new clones."

Many people suddenly stared at Zanze with hatred, as if to say, "So this guy was planning this?"

"..."

Feeling pressured, Zanze turned his head away.

"Haha, but from the way you sound, you must have a solution. Otherwise, you wouldn't be saying something like, 'Let everyone pass the test.'"

"The solution is, everyone, please don't enter the cemetery. I will destroy the Water Mirror Demon, and then everyone can enter. If there are only copies of me, there is still a way to deal with it. If there are too many, I will be overwhelmed. The premise is, are you willing to trust me?"

"What a joke! If you die in the middle of this, won't we have waited for you for a whole day in vain and then we will all fail the test?"

"Half a day, half a day is enough. If I don't come out, I'll be considered dead. While you're waiting, you can work on your strategy. I'll leave marks along the way so you don't have to search for traps. What do you think? Of course, I can wait for you to retreat from the maze one by one before entering. The clones will disappear after you leave the maze. Examiner Zanze won't go back on his word, will he?"

"Hmm? Oh, so that's what you're planning? ...Haha... If one person could clear the level, there wouldn't be people who haven't yet."

Zanze sighed, feeling that Chaoyang was going crazy.

"Indeed... I was almost fooled by this fifth-level magician. I don't know what you're planning, but..."

The next moment, Chaoyang quickly moved to the side of the candidate who was speaking and knocked him unconscious with a single blow from his sword.

"Haa ...

Several candidates raised their staffs and pointed them at Chaoyang.

"You guy!"

"Don't worry, he's just unconscious. I'll take him to the third round. But at this level, he probably won't be able to become a first-level magician even after passing it. Just leave it as a souvenir for him."

Duncan looked calm, just stroking his beard and whispering

"...Laorfen, his magic is probably the same type as your Jilwer (high-speed movement magic)."

Sitting behind Duncan, Laorfen recalled the flow of Chaoyang's magic power just now. The way he felt was obviously different from his own.

"It's a little different, and the speed is slower than mine...but..."

Duncan looked at Chaoyang and completed the rest of the sentence.

"Unlike you, your magic power decreases significantly every time you use it, but his doesn't. It seems his magic is not simple. ...It's quite interesting, isn't it? It's only half a day. You can use it to sleep."

It seems that everyone has the same idea. It is indeed not a bad idea to use half a day to rest early.

After Chaoyang demonstrated his strength, everyone actually gained some confidence in him. They had nothing to lose after all. This wasn't an exam with a limited number of qualified candidates, so there was no need to harm each other.

"In that case, I'm leaving now. If nothing unexpected happens, the next time we meet will be the end. Good night."

After saying that, Chaoyang walked into the majestic entrance of the destination.

But I didn't expect Zanze to follow.

"...Could you please not come in?"

Chaoyang turned and looked at Zanze with disgust.
