Path of light

Chapter 190 191. Final

At the training ground of the Elf Academy, everyone watched the Silver Moon Elf leave the training ground in dejection. Some elves who wanted to make small moves immediately gave up the idea.

Roy and Claire looked at each other. They didn't expect that instructor Nora was really merciless. If he was caught, he would be disqualified from the exam.

Claire wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and whispered to Roy:

"Fortunately, you just stuck to your principles. Otherwise, I would have to be like Steve and have to retake the elementary martial arts training class. That would be really embarrassing!"

"Hey, I said Wagner Claire, it's okay for you and Roy to talk, don't always bring my name into it..."

Steve emerged from behind Claire and said to Claire with a dark face.

Claire was startled by Steve. Steve and Adams stood together. It seemed that they had just arrived and had not yet signed in with instructor Nora.

"Why did you two come here?"

Claire was not embarrassed at all, but instead greeted Steve familiarly.

Although Claire and Steve had some grievances, after the two had a fight in the arena, all their previous grievances were wiped out, and they actually settled their differences.

Occasionally, the two would go to dances held by some elven nobles together.

This makes Roy a little incomprehensible: Ordinarily, in the next few years, even if the two are not mortal enemies, shouldn't they stay away from each other until death?

Claire stood in front of Steve and asked him:

"Steve, was last year's strength test chopping wood?"

Steve shook his head, recalled it carefully, and then said:

"It's a weight-bearing run. Each student drags a chain with a dead ball tied behind the chain."

Claire felt horrified when she thought about it. It seemed as if it was not as easy as chopping logs.

Roy took the opportunity to ask: "Does this test have different questions every year?"

Adams, standing next to Steve, replied: "Actually, there are only a few."

Instructor Nora called Steve and Adams to sign in.

Roy and Claire came to line up for the obstacle course, still working in pairs, and they completed the obstacle course easily.

After running the entire race, Claire and Roy reached the finish line almost at the same time.

There is a clear difference between the two when running and jumping over obstacles.

Claire has such a light body that she can easily cross obstacles by simply supporting her body with her hands...

But Roy's body is slightly bulky and he needs more skills to make up for his lack of lightness. However, his explosive power is stronger and he can catch up quickly every time he jumps over an obstacle...

This test was a test in which both men tried their best.

Panting, the two walked towards the third physical fitness test area, where twenty smooth pillars were erected, each pillar was about as thick as an adult thigh.

The height of the pillar is less than three meters, and its surface is coated with a layer of varnish and is very slippery.

Twenty elf students are taking the test. Their hands and feet are tightly hugging the pillar, and they need to hold on to the pillar for two quarters of an hour.

When the two walked over, this round of testing was almost over.

Apparently the elves are better at climbing trees. Everyone hugged the pillar and gritted their teeth to give blessings...

Claire stood in the waiting area and whispered to Roy:

"Roy, I feel like you are not only running much faster than before, but your body coordination and balance are also much better than before..."

Roy said calmly: "Isn't martial arts training just for improving yourself?"

"..."

"Claire, Roy, can you two pass this round of tests?"

An assistant coach standing under the wooden pillar shouted to Roy and Claire at the top of his lungs.

"Come right away..."

Claire quickly agreed.

After saying that, he and Roy walked under the two pillars.

When the teaching assistant saw that all the students were ready, he asked everyone to climb onto the pillar, and then hugged the slippery wooden pillar with all his strength.

Timing begins……

The third test was Claire's strong point. Claire could easily chat quietly with Roy while hugging the pillar.

Roy didn't dare to speak. He could only slow down his breathing as much as possible, tighten all the muscles in his body, and hug the pillar with both hands, like a koala.

This endurance test not only tests the students' endurance, but also their willpower.

At the beginning, Claire could still chat with Roy endlessly. After only a quarter of an hour, Claire had to shut her mouth and began to suffer for a long time while holding the wooden pillar.

It wasn't until a whistle sounded and the assistant coach announced that the test was over that Claire jumped down from the pillar.

Roy hugged the pillar tightly and finally breathed a sigh of relief at this moment.

He almost slipped off the pillar, and his muscles all over his body became sore and stiff...

The two successfully completed the three physical examinations of the junior martial arts training course, which officially kicked off the final examination.

As for the martial arts assessment on the second day, instructor Nora randomly selected some basic martial arts skills for the students to complete. If they were proficient and fluent, they would be considered qualified. There was no actual combat test.

Claire did very well in the elementary martial arts test.

In the next two days, Roy took the exams in the Elf Academy's modern history of the elves and the geography of the Elf Continent. Roy had worked hard on the geography of the Elf Continent. This time, Mr. Harper The questions were not too difficult. The last question was to explain the geographical location of Parram Island.

Roy's only impression of the island was that there was a prison on the island, and it was said that many extremely vicious prisoners were imprisoned there.

If you take a boat from Castletown Port to Parram Island, it will take half a day to sail when there is a tailwind. If there is a headwind, you have to hide in Castletown Harbor and wait until the weather is good before going out to sea...

Roy walked out of the examination room and walked along the path to the entrance of the college.

Claire was at the gate, surrounded by a group of Silver Moon elf students. Many Silver Moon students wanted to invite Claire to their summer vacation activities.

Seeing Roy walking out of the college gate, Claire walked out of the crowd.

Roy asked Claire:

"Claire, how many courses have you completed?"

While Claire was greeting the elf students passing by, she whispered to Roy:

"I've passed four exams, and the last one is very easy. By the way, Roy! The college has a dance at the end of every semester. Do you want to go and find a female partner?"

Why is Claire lacking a female companion?

Roy knew that Claire was obviously saying this to accommodate him. She wanted to replicate the dance on the Nautilus, hoping that some Silver Moon Elf girls would be willing to buy one and get one free...

So, Roy refused: "Claire, I want to invite the female companion myself this time."

Claire shrugged, put her arm around Roy's shoulders, and said, "Whatever you want..."

…

The final exam of the Elf Academy is a top priority for every elf student.

Students are rarely absent these days, and once they miss the exam, it means they have to do it all over again next year.

The sea breeze in the morning is a bit cool, and the north wind blowing from the frozen sea will feel cold to the bones when it blows on your body.

Sabrina, wearing a long skirt and a sheepskin waistcoat and scarf, stood at the door of her house, waiting for Roy to walk out of the yard...

"What are your plans for the holiday?"

Sabrina took the initiative and said to Roy.

Roy turned around and closed the courtyard door, turned around and walked towards the intersection with Sabrina, and said:

"I may have to go on an adventure with Instructor Nora's adventure group. Their adventure group lacks a trainee priest."

"Is there such a good thing?" Sabrina covered her smiling mouth with her hand and pretended not to know:

"I heard that if you go on a plane adventure, if you're lucky, you'll get some pretty good results!"

"This... maybe, this is my first time on an adventure trip, and instructor Nora hasn't even said where I'm going!" Roy said.

The two of them walked to the crossroads as they talked, and could already see a long carriage slowly approaching from a distance.

After the two of them got into the carriage, Sabrina asked Roy:

"Is there no news from Abt?"

Roy shook his head and said, "No, he seemed to have disappeared suddenly..."

Sabrina could feel that Roy was a little strange today. He seemed a little nervous and even spoke less.

From time to time, she turned to look at Roy...

Roy hesitated for a long time, thinking that if he formally invited Sabrina, he wouldn't be beaten even if she was rejected.

So he mustered up his courage and said in one breath to Sabrina sitting next to him:

"Sabrina, can you be my companion to the dance held at the college this weekend?"

Sabrina turned to look at Roy, blinked her big emerald eyes, and said, "Okay!"

He agreed readily, so readily that Roy felt a little unreal.

Roy raised his fist and shook it in front of his chest to celebrate his success in inviting Sabrina...

Then, the atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward, and neither of them knew what to say for a moment.

The long carriage ran over the stone slabs in the street and drove slowly through the streets of the lower city.

…

Roy passed all three courses and final exams smoothly, and his nervousness finally relaxed.

Next, Roy will take a two-month vacation.

Roy hummed the song all the way back home, only to find Ms. Belinda packing her bags in the living room. She looked up and saw Roy walking in from the outside, and said happily:

"Roy, you came back just in time. This time I received an invitation from the Bruno Art Gallery, one of the three major art galleries in Buenos. They want the exquisite balls I carved to be displayed in their venue. I need Go to Buenos to discuss some exhibition details with them. Are you on vacation? Do you want to go shopping in Buenos with me?"

"Belinda, I might not be able to go. There is a dance at the college this weekend and I have made an appointment." Roy took off his shoes, walked into the living room, sat on the sofa and said to Ms. Belinda.

Ms. Belinda pinched Roy's cheeks with both hands and said to him affectionately:

"Then you stay at home and take care of yourself. I will come back as soon as possible."
