With a snap of powerful wind, the four examinees along with their three ostriches fell into a mound of deep white snow. Lyrian quickly stood up before digging out space in the snow to be able to breathe. After taking in a deep breath, he held it as he began to dig through one side with his hands. The more he dug, the denser the snow got, since it was building up when he pushed it forward. After about 20 seconds, or so, he thought to himself, 'Wait... Why am I even doing this.' Before casting a wind…-

Traveling through the harsh, sheer cold biome that was the tundra, Lyrian, and his crew could almost feel that the environment itself was alive. Each step felt like it triggered something else to move. Whether it be snow being crushed under the Rock Ostriches foot, bushes swaying, snow falling from the trees, or wind howling through the air, everything felt organic and real. Creatures moved along, quickly dashing away from the group, and sometimes the group dashed away from certain creatures…

What Lyrian wanted badly right now was to use his power. 'I want to know how much closer I am to being powerful.' He thought to himself. Although the crowd of kids behind the factions, ready for a battle, were surprised by the actions of Lyrian and his team, they couldn't say much. They weren't in the position to after all. It was up to the factions themselves, and how they handled the situation. While looking at the Yaltan Wind Group, Lyrian noticed not only Silvus, who had clearly recognized…

Lyrian looked around, noticing everyone that had shown up, 'This is... not the ideal situation. I wanted to explore the different groups at the very least, but it seems the final few days of this exam are going to be nothing but a fiery dance of determination and battle.' Seeing Ray's somewhat frustrated expression, Lyrian realized what he was probably thinking in his head. They clearly didn't want many to know of this since it would lessen their chance of getting the core. 'They tried to hide it as…

After a few minutes or so of waiting around, Ray from the Yaltan Wind group took a step forward, as everyone changed their attention to him and began ceasing their conversations. "We will begin choosing the hunters now!" Everyone stood tall, wanting to be seen as the best candidates, as the White Knight's representative stepped down from the small stone platform and began to choose seemingly random kids for the exam. "You, in the green. You, over there in the red. You in the glasses in the back!"…

As they cautiously looked at him from the other side of their sewn grass carpet, Lyrian scanned through the various trinkets laying around. The trinkets consisted of smaller items from beasts that had simple abilities like healing and mana regen, and also some potions and magical items. Lyrian noted the potions but knew that magical items were pretty much just for show since they didn't work on the school grounds or the exam, as stated by Julius before the exam began. As the sun neared the middle…

"A moron huh?" Lyrian questioned himself as he looked through the several items on the carpet, flipping them over and inspecting them all around. The storekeeper simply stared at him with a confused expression as he said, "It's 5 points for each thing..." Lyrian looked up, "5 points? Isn't that half of what a tier 3 creature core is even worth? That's a bit expensive don't you think?" Lyrian grinned slightly. The kid seemed to be angered by this, "Shut up! You probably aren't going to buy it…

'... He could sense my presence?' The dark-haired boy thought to himself, a slightly confused expression on his face. "I don't care about forgiving you, just don't do stupid things again and there won't be any problems." Lyrian nonchalantly said to him with his back turned as he walked back to where Alten was. The crowd was slightly confused about what Lyrian was talking about but soon dispersed as well. All in all, they seemed to be slightly worried, but overall happy with the experience. It was…

"Woah... is he going to fight seriously here?" A boy from the crowd exclaimed in surprise. A boy next to him couldn't help but speak, "Didn't you see what that other guy did to him? Of course he would fight seriously after that..." Everyone started to back up and make some space as Lyrian and Kedward neared the center of the crowd of examinees. As Kedward's aura exuded into the atmosphere, making contact with everyone in the crowd, Lyrian looked down at his hand. 'Perfect... I can test out my new…

"What kind of names are these?" Alten questioned in confusion, "Yaltan Wind sounds like some sort of national natural disaster or something." Rylan quickly answered, "Well... they didn't choose the name themselves. These nicknames were given to them by the kids. It's what they are most memorable for I guess." Hearing this, Alten was slightly taken aback by a sudden realization, "Most memorable? Yaltan... Wind?" Hearing this, a sudden puzzle seemed to meet in his mind, that he was confused about for…
