Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master-Chapter 247 It’s Time For A Test

He emptied almost eighty percent of his spirit power, and that wasn't enough to leave him in the same sorrow state as how he ended up back at the Spar arena.

William leaned more on using his lightning spirit element in this fight, the same way he'd fight the dark spirit masters in.

Ibra didn't lose out thanks to any technique, or even spirit power… He lost thanks to his inexperience in using his spirit element. Not to mention he didn't even care to know a bit more about William before the fight, or even was attentive to notice the lightning spirit power William used.

Ibra wasn't fighting William seriously, and if he did, William wouldn't have walked away in such a state or Ibra would be left unconscious on the ground.

William moved forward, and the moment he did, Berry, Sara, Lang, Peter, and John moved after him without any hesitation or delay.

Other spirit masters around, be it the ones who came here to watch or to join, both sides looked at the all burnt down Ibra on the ground and then moved their eyes at the distant back of William.

"Tsk! It seems the academy won't live in peace any longer," one of those who came to watch sighed, while others silently agreed with him. ƒ𝚛𝐞𝚎𝑤𝘦𝚋𝓷o𝚟e𝘭.c𝐨𝙢

William's actions here weren't just mind goggling, but they were like a statement. The upcoming generation was going to create miracles and take over those higher, stronger, and older than them. ƒ𝑟𝐞𝗲𝘄𝙚𝚋𝑛ｏ𝙫𝒆𝒍.𝒄𝘰𝓂

The ones who came to watch didn't follow William anymore, feeling like they already saw enough.

This kid… He got what it took for him to act in such an arrogant and daring way!

The others who came here to join William didn't hesitate any longer. The last words William said before Ibra's intervention managed to leave behind a shadow in their hearts.

But when William showed off his abnormal strength and managed to beat down such a scary spirit master, all the doubts in everyone's hearts vanquished.

No one loved to hear about walking to their deaths. But following such a strong spirit master, one who defied logic, had a much deeper impact on themselves than fear.

William walked for a mile inside the safe zone of the forest, taking a zigzag route, before finally stopping. Not a single one brought up by his four trusted friends was left behind.

"Ok, at least they got the courage to follow me," William thought to himself before moving his eyes around, "now, it's time for your admission test."

"Admission test?"

"What test?"

"Is it the one that will decide who will join the team and who won't?"

Many exclaimed in doubt, while the five around William showed a tinge of confusion on their faces.

"It's a test to decide who is going to follow us outside, and who won't," William moved his eyes around, stopping for a few moments over those white grade kids, "and it's a pretty simple task… I want each of you to walk around, find and kill at least ten monsters alone, and bring back their materials and cores."

"This…"

"That simple?"

"What grade do you want? It can't be white grade monsters, right?"

"Any grade will do," William paused, before adding, "but you got only three hours to do so. One second later and you'll be disqualified!"

"This…"

"And fighting among yourselves is forbidden," William added, "go and start killing monsters. The test starts now! And don't forget, I want you to impress me!"

William didn't give any of these forty kids a chance to even absorb or digest what he said. Once he said his last piece, everyone exchanged looks in silence, before they dispersed around the forest.

"Killing ten in three hours? That can be achieved easily," Sara pouted from the side, "you should have given them one hour! Or even less than that!"

"There are forty of them! And that means they have to cross a large area first to secure more monsters than others," Peter said, as this dude grasped part of the trick William played in his words.

"Kill more?" Berry blinked, "don't they need to kill only ten?"

"That dude said at least, and that means he wanted more," Lang sighed, while pointing at William, "why didn't you tell them about this point? That killing more monsters will bring more chances in joining us?"

"Because it's not as simple as that," William sighed, "for example, those silver grade spirit masters can easily kill ten of white grade monsters. If they did, then they wouldn't be qualified to join the team."

"But…" Berry was still unable to grasp what William wanted from this test, "didn't you say any grade will do?"

"Sure," William nodded, "but if the silver grade spirit masters focused on killing white grade monsters, then that will tell me a lot about their nature."

"This…" Berry looked around, and it seemed she and Sara were the only ones who didn't get the idea behind this test.

Even John seemed to realise and guess bits of William's real intentions.

"I don't want spirit masters who will go around and get satisfied in doing the lowest requirement of any task… I want daring dudes, ones who aim to go higher and achieve better results than they got asked for."

"That's why this dude asked to get impressed at the end," Sara shook her head in realisation, "you should have stated all this from the start. Many won't get the point behind your test this way."

"I don't want anyone to get my point," William showed a calm smile that wasn't one, "I want to see their true selves. I want to see how they'll act in normal situations, without having anything like preset conditions or achieved goals or something."

To Sara, William should have told everyone what he wanted so they'd adapt and do as he'd expect them to do. Her point was also supported by Lang, as the latter got worried over his clansmen.

John didn't speak up, as he still felt it was a mistake for him to be here or might be pure luck. So, he didn't have a say in this, and decided to keep himself neutral and didn't take a side.

Berry didn't like how William acted with these kids as well, and thought the same way as Sara and Lang.

The only one who showed support to William's idea was Peter.
