A few days later, an assembly was held for the entire academy. The news of the competition had been spread throughout the entire academy as students began to become rowdy.

It was announced that the twins of the student council will be the representatives for their year along with three others. When the news was spread, no one seemed surprised as if it were a natural thing.

After the assembly, the other years left the hall as the first-year students had all remained behind.

The headmaster himself stood behind the podium to speak.

"The candidates of the other years have already been chosen. Now it is time for the first-year candidates to be chosen. I will hand it over to teacher Yang to announce the candidates." the headmaster spoke with his deep voice.

Ye Qin's homeroom teacher stood behind the podium, taking the place of the headmaster. Without needing any notes, she began to speak.

"First, the five gold star students will remain as gold stars next year. A new gold star student will be joining the five of them starting from today." she said.

Sitting at the front, Ye Qin and his dormmates got up and stood on the stage behind their homeroom teacher. A spotlight shone upon a young man sitting amongst the crowd. Looking at him, Ye Qin and Wang Tao recognized him right away.

"It's him." Wang Tao whispered.

Ye Qin nodded.

The young man that appeared on the Battle peak test walked up to the stage to stand beside them. The young man at that time with his monster of four elements, who had overwhelmed a gold star student from a higher year on his own.

It was obvious that he too would be joining them. The weird thing was that he didn't join in the first place as a gold star student, but rather, as a bronze star.

"Student Yang Chen will be the sixth gold star student of the year." teacher Yang continued.

"Yang Chen? He has the same last name as our teacher, it must be that..." Ye Qin thought.

"Now moving on to the candidates, students Ye Qin, Wang Tao and Yang Chen will take three of the spots without any need to compete. As for the remaining two spots, you will all decide amongst yourselves with the remaining gold stars."

"Teacher, why do they not need to be tested?" a bronze star student raised his hand to ask.

"Oi, didn't you hear about what happened during the Battle peak's test months ago?" another bronze star beside him whispered.

"The three of them have more than enough strength, if you aren't convinced, we don't care." she replied to him.

"I... I see." the student replied softly as he kept his mouth shut.

"Now that, that has been decided, today's assembly will end here. The three of them can leave while the rest of you are to remain here with the headmaster to decide the remaining two spots." Yang Xinyi finished her speech.

*************

Back at the dorms, Yang Chen's belongings had arrived by the time they got back to the dorms. "You can take one of the remaining rooms." Ye Qin told him.


Yang Chen stared at the two brothers but didn't reply. He went into the room next to Ye Qin's and closed the door shut without making a sound.

Wang Tao shrugged as he saw this take place.

"It's been a while since we last played, wanna log in?" Ye Qin asked.

"Sure, it really has been a while. I wonder if I can still use my equipment with this new frame of mine." Wang Tao laughed.

"See you there." Ye Qin said as he closed his door.

Inside his room, Ye Qin logged onto the game and waited for Wang Tao. It had been a while since they last played, looking at the leaderboard, it seemed like the ranking shifted a bit, while the same top ten players still remained up there.

When Wang Tao logged in, he opened his eyes and noticed Ye Qin waiting for him.

"My body doesn't feel much different to before even in the game, I guess stats are more important in a game after all despite this game supposedly reflecting a real world." Wang Tao said.

"The training I did must've strengthened my body a lot if I can hold such a big sword with one arm with this frame of mine, do you want to have a try boss?"

"Erm, I use dual swords, I doubt I will be able to lift it even with both arms." Ye Qin replied.

Despite that, Wang Tao through his large broadsword into the air as it rotated and dropped down with immense speed and vigor.

Ye Qin looked up and jumped high into the air before reaching out with his right hand to grab the handle before putting his left hand onto it then pulled it as hard as he could in the air.

Boom!

The huge broadsword plummeted onto the ground, creating a small crater. Ye Qin could be seen on top of the broadsword trying his best to pull it out of the ground.

After pulling it for over five minutes, he barely managed to lift the entire thing off the ground before dropping it, making the crater slightly bigger.

"I guess I should increase my strength more." he said.

Wang Tao laughed before standing behind the sword and picked it up with one hand as though it were a toy. Holding it on his shoulder, the two brothers went to town in search for quests.

***********

Roar! Grrww!

A large bear with a horn on its head growled as a large x mark appeared on its chest. Blood flowed from the mark as the bear dropped to the ground.

The sound of swords swishing as well as the heavy sound of things being crushed clearly resounded within a large open forest.

Ye Qin held his dual swords and moved like a phantom through multiple horned bears within seconds.

Wang Tao crushed the horned bears with the sheer weight of his sword. With a single swing, groups of the bears died at the same time as their bodies were blown to bits mid-air.

Just before, they had accepted a quest to subjugate horned bears in a forest. In the town they were in, most quests take place in the same forest, meaning they must travel back and forth between the town and forest every time.

After subjugating the bears, they are to take some honey that the bears were protecting and bring it back to the quest giver.

So far, they had slain dozens of bears upon arriving in the forest. Ye Qin's lack of strength was made up for his speed which meant he could defeat the bears in the same timeframe that Wang Tao did despite the disparity.

After landing the final blow on the last horned bear, Ye Qin grabbed the honey deep within their lair before crushing a teleportation item that sent them back to town.
