As the exam was gradually coming to an end, winners had emerged in some arenas.

The winners laid in blood, enjoying their victory with a relieved smile on their faces despite the terrible state they were in.

Surviving a chaotic battle among hundreds of people was still a cruel battle for these little flowers that had been kept sheltered in the greenhouse for all these times.

However, such cruelty was necessary for their growth.

The battle over at Lilith’s side was coming to an end too.

There were only two people left in the arena. One was the bear-like young man who proposed to keep Lilith for the end, and the other was a delicate girl who wielded double daggers.

The two performed quite well in the battle. At least, they were significantly ahead of their peers.

The bear-like young man wielded a broad sword with a sharp tip. His powerful swings could sweep his enemies away like fallen leaves in autumn wind. No one could pretty much get three feet near him.

The girl who wielded double daggers was an extremely outstanding assassin. She was lithe and agile like a civet cat. Every time she sent her daggers flying, clean cuts would be left on someone’s body. Her ability to conceal herself was the most terrifying part about her. She could melt into the shadows and disappear under everyone’s gaze. The next time she reappeared, someone would fall.

If Lilith hadn’t participated in this exam, the two of them would definitely be the winners of this arena.

Unfortunately now, only one of them would rise above the rest in this exam.

Unless, one of them managed to kill Lilith.

It was at this time…

Lilith stared intently at the two people in the arena with her dead fish eyes that seemed to hold a lot of grudges in them.

Hurry up!

Hurry up!

It’s gonna be my turn once you two are done.

Hehe.

However, the young man and girl in the arena still stood facing each other. Neither wanted to strike first.

Although their strength could pretty much crush their peers, their stamina was pretty much depleted after such a long battle. The two of them also sustained a few wounds on their bodies.

Both of them needed some time to catch their breaths, so no one moved.

After a long time, winners had pretty much emerged in the other arenas.

Perhaps the girl who wielded double daggers thought that dragging this on would put her in an extremely unfavorable situation since she was weaker in strength, so she took the lead to attack.

Her figure vanished before appearing right in the blind spot behind the youth in the next moment. She sent the dagger in her hand flying right at the youth’s nape which was left completely undefended.

“Heh, I was waiting for this.”

The young man seemed to have anticipated the girl’s attack. Using himself as the axis, he swept his broadsword backward powerfully, conjuring up a violent sword gale.

The girl was forced to back up, but not before leaving two extremely shallow wounds on her opponent.

Blood seeped through the wounds, but went unnoticed by the young man who was grinning so widely that his bunny teeth were exposed.

“Pretty impressive, lady. You actually managed to dodge this.”

“You flatter me.” The girl’s voice was as cold as her temperament.

“Oh, turns out that you’re an ice queen on top of that, I like you. My name is Gulliver, how about you lady?”

“Xina.”

Xina responded coldly and at the same time, charged toward Gulliver, left another wound on Gulliver’s sturdy body before quickly pulling away from him again.

“Haha, interesting.” Gulliver forced her back and then laughed, “Let’s see if you will exhaust me first, or if I’ll land a hit on you first.”

Broadsword and daggers danced without touching each other, blood was shed and dancing in the air.

Lilith sat on the sidelines, still staring at them with her dead fish eyes.

That was all she could do.

Their battle could be considered a lesson on a fight between an assassin and a warrior.

However, it was nothing to Lilith who had seen the greater things.

She could even say that it was boring.

She was irritated and depressed.

Her hands were itching.

She wanted to beat someone up.

“Hurry up and get it over with… Hurry up and get it over with… My turn next…

“Mangling your flesh with my left fist… Blowing your brain with my right fist…

“Beating people up… It’s really fun… It’s really fun… Hehe…”

Lilith started humming softly.

But the lyrics…

Were kind of scary.

And finally…

As Lilith mumbled to herself like a broken record, the battle between the two was coming to an end.

Gulliver was soaked in his own blood and swaying unsteadily like he was about to lose his footing.

Xina remained unscathed.

The outcome of the battle was obvious.

“Give up.”

“Hehe, no way.”

“You probably can’t even stand still by now from losing too much blood.”

“Hey lady… Same goes for you. Your legs are… trembling. Looks like… constantly sneaking attacks… is taking a great toll on your body.”

Xina’s eyes were cold. “I still have enough strength to give you another cut.”

She brandished her daggers and charged toward Gulliver.

Instead of a sneak attack from behind, she was directly attacking from the front.

Perhaps it was because she was triggered by how Gulliver deliberately emphasized the words “sneak attacks”.

Lilith glowed when Xina’s dagger was about to pierce Gulliver’s skin.

It’s over, it’s finally over! It’s my turn now!

Although the girl named Xina had almost exhausted her stamina, Lilith had a lot of recovery scrolls. She could just heal her up completely before their fight.

Moreover, agile types like Xina were her nemesis. She still remembered the pathetic state she was reduced into by a rank seven assassin with high agility back in the underground auction.

Hm, I should be able to play for a very long time if I’m careful this time.

“Ha, you finally fell for it, lady!”

Lilith went speechless.

She swore…

Throughout her two lifetimes…

Through the storms she had weathered through…

Through the countless people she had known…

Of all the words she had heard…

This was the worst thing she had ever heard!

Can this bear cub just go and die already?!

Gulliver roared like the male protagonist in some movies. He waved his broadsword and sucked Xina’s body in, as if she voluntarily collided into the sword by herself.

If it wasn’t for the fact that the blade wasn’t pointing at her, her delicate body would have been cut into two.

Even so, she was sent flying away dozens of meters by the broadsword like a fly.

Xina struggled to get up, but her broken body no longer allowed her to do so. She could only glare at Gulliver with unwillingness in her eyes.

She didn’t even have any strength left to speak now.

“Haha, it’s still my victory!”

Gulliver laughed loudly twice before his legs gave out and he collapsed on the ground.

The sparse applause in the surrounding quickly turned into a magnificent ensemble.

The candidates applauded to show their respect for the winner.

Some teachers also smiled and applauded. It was truly amazing to witness such a praiseworthy battle among the students.

Gulliver laid in his own pool of blood like a general who returned from victory.

He had a triumphant smile on his face as he basked in the glory of his success.

However, his glorious moment didn’t last long.

The applause suddenly stopped.

It didn’t fade away gradually, but stopped abruptly.

The atmosphere turned awkward among tens of thousands of people.

Because all of them suddenly realized that the young man whom they were applauding for so long didn’t actually win.

A petite and cute girl stood up silently in one corner of the arena, completely unscathed. Not even a single strand of her hair fell.

This girl was the only person left standing in the arena right now.

And according to the rules, she was the real winner.

For a moment, everyone felt like they were a general who had returned victorious from a deadly battle, only to find that the international dispute had been settled by a useless prince, whom he had always looked down on, through political marriage with a princess.

The general didn’t even get any credit for the hard battles he fought.

And the prince held the beautiful princess in his arms with a lewd smile on his face.

It was really frustrating!

A petite shadow suddenly loomed over Gulliver’s face.

Gulliver was dumbfounded, then looked as though he just recalled something that he had forgotten. His already pale face from severe blood loss became paler.

Lilith looked at Gulliver who was at her feet and clenched her jaw.

“You weak chicken.”

Gulliver couldn’t respond to that.
