Two-Star Mage Promotion Assessment (5)

In the world of mages in this world, there were distinctions between genius mages and average mages; only, whether they were geniuses or just average could not be found out when testing for element affinity, but gradually emerged during long-term cultivation.

Therefore, when Anna, a mage who joined the Association at the “old age” of seventeen, became a one-star mage, she had already attracted the attention and observation of some people. If she could be successfully promoted to a two-star mage, then it was almost certain that she was a genius.

Ordinary mages joined the Association at the age of seven and started learning. After several years of study, they would become a one-star mage at the age of eleven or twelve, and then become a two-star mage at the age of sixteen or seventeen. The first two levels were relatively easy to rise to, but to become a three-star mage required nearly ten years of study and cultivation. Many people that were 3 star mages were already 30 years old. Therefore, Raymond, who was about to become a 3-star mage at the age of 18, was already considered to be extremely talented.

Although Anna seemed to be able to become a 2-star mage at the age of seventeen, she was similar in this respect to an ordinary 2-star mage, but she had only joined the Mage Association for a little more than two months, which meant she had jumped two levels consecutively. It was not an exaggeration to say that she was a genius.

There was even a secret bet on whether Anna could pass the promotion test this time.

Anna suddenly realized that she had recently gained a lot of attention in the Association.

When she was reading in the library, there would be people secretly glancing at her, when she was walking around in the Association, there would be people quietly pointing at her, and when she went to the potion lab and meditation room and walked in other people’s space, there would be people suddenly running out to see her… She seemed to suddenly become the focus of the crowd.

“How vexing.” Anna sighed lowly, lying on the table in the library, not bothering to care about the fact that others were staring at her.

It’s true that it won’t lose a piece of meat when someone looks at it, but it’s really awkward.

“It’s just being stared at, what do you care what they do?” Rothgarr said so, but he also turned his head and looked coldly at those who glanced at Anna from time to time. The person he looked at was frightened, and quickly avoided his sight.

“The logic is right, but…” Anna shook her head gently. She could imagine that after she passed the exam, more people would pay attention to her, and she would become a talked about figure of the whole Association.

She wanted to keep a low profile and take it slow, but unfortunately the situation didn’t allow it.

“Forget it, there are ten days left. It will pass quickly.” Anna sat up abruptly and said this to deceive herself.

However, if she really passed, maybe there would be a turning point, so it was not all hopeless.

This slump was only temporary, and Anna soon threw herself back into the ocean of knowledge.

It was the only solution to her predicament.

In the next few days, those eyes of course did not disappear, but Anna had done a good job of psychological construction and didn’t think about it any more.

Ironically, it was Rothgarr, now, with a grumpy face all day, as if everyone owed him a hundred bucks.

He didn’t like those eyes on Anna very much, but he couldn’t do anything.

And the other thing that bothered Rothgarr even more was that, in the blink of an eye, his time was running out.

He still had nearly four months when he switched the content of the bet with Balan. He felt that this time was sufficient, but the time flew by so fast, and now there was less than a month left in the blink of an eye.

He could feel that Anna’s view of him was different now, but he also had a hunch that if he proposed to her right now, she would not agree.

For the past month, Anna had been preparing for the second-star assessment, so he didn’t do anything extra. But after her assessment was over, he had to figure out a way to do something.

He had to win this bet.

On the day of the second-star assessment, Anna was in high spirits, and both Natalie and Rothgarr accompanied her.

She knew that it was useless for her to refuse, so she just thanked them for their company.

At 8:30 in the morning, Natalie hugged Anna before she entered the examination room, and said seriously, “Anna, you will definitely do excellent!”

Anna smiled and hugged Natalie back: “Yes, I think so too.”

She let go of Natalie and looked at the demon again, and smiled at him: “I’m heading in.”

Rothgarr raised an eyebrow.

Anna waved and walked into the study room of the library.

This time without Natalie present, Anna was not afraid of causing any pressure to others, and handed in the exam an hour after the exam started. The exam questions were not beyond her learning range, and she answered them easily.

She also easily passed the mental strength portion next. Even before taking the one-star exam, she was already familiar with the application of a lot of one-star mage spells, and brushing up on them this month, she had no problem at all.

In the potion exam in the afternoon, she drew the potion related to the rabbit head grass. During this time, she did not go to the line of life and death. After all, she was injured by the three headed demonic eagles, and she had some PTSD. However, relying on her exquisite mental power micro-manipulation and familiarity with the preparation process, Anna still easily completed the preparation of the potion.
