I Became An Academy Spearman
Chapter 4: Entrance Exam to the Great Royal Academy (2)

Han had a modest attribute, but he was confident.

When he started walking again, Glesia was able to see the direction he was headed.

He was headed toward the Great Royal Academy.

It made sense for him to be going there, she thought. The entrance exam was in less than an hour.

Clomp

Since she, too, was also heading in the same direction, Glesia strangely couldn’t take her eyes off his back as she walked behind him.

“……”

That man would pass the entrance exam, she said in her mind.

Since he raised his attribute level to level 3, it was predictable.

But would he really be able to maintain his confidence?

She wondered if he could withstand the cold stares of the examiners with his insignificant Spearman attribute.

She had once taken the entranc exam with her sister.

She still vividly remembered the examination hall she saw when she was younger. There was a heavy atmosphere in the examination hall, an atmosphere that could probably crush ordinary people.

She was sure that the man named Han Seong, who was now walking in front of her, would not be able to keep those words of confidence.

***

Han Seong looked around.

Where he was standing was filled with people. There was a huge crowd lined up for the entrance test at the Academy’s examination hall.

He was waiting for his turn in line like the others, but he kept on feeling some strange sensation.

What the hell is this?

A shiver was constantly running down his neck.

It was as if someone was watching him all the time.

But after looking around intently several times, it seemed that no one was looking at him.

“You’re just overthinking…” he muttered to himself, touching ther back of his neck.

He felt confident about the entrance exam, since he had reached level 3 of his Spearman attribute. However, he decided that perhaps he was nervous deep down. Posted only on NovelUtopia

Even now, in his field of vision he could see several people who were waiting to take the entrance exam. And, funnily enough, most of them were also nervous and intimidated. Only a small minority were confident.

People who have good attributes smile, and the others who have common or short-range attributes feel scared. Go figure.

A hollow chuckle escaped him at the thought.

More than 90% of the people in the line would ultimately fail the entrance exam

And it would be generous to consider a 10% pass rate.

This was because many people do not receive good attributes.

Despite this, the people who were now in line attended the entrance exam because they were grasping at straws.

Everyone was in line with the feeling that they could get in by luck.

Too bad.

He shook his head.

As time went on, the line began to shorten faster than expected.

“Candidate number 401 to candidate number 410, please enter.” a loud voice called.

Less than 10 minutes later, there was another call, beckoning a new batch of candidates to the examination hall.

That was such little time to observe the attributes!

How was it possible that ten people could only take ten minutes for the entrance exam? Thats only a minute per person!

The line shortened so quickly that it was Han’s turn before he knew it.

“Candidate number 491 to candidate number 500, please enter.”

When his number was called, he took a big step following the person in front of him.

There’s nothing to be nervous about.

Because he already knew what the exam was about.

He was confident that he could pass this exam.

Just before entering the examination hall, he strengthened his whole body.

“My God!”

“What!”

Although the candidates who entered first immediately knelt down or froze in their positions, he continued to move forward with ease without hesitation.

Clomp, Clomp

His number was 496.

He finally stopped at the sixth position.

“Wow.” an examiner exclaimed.

“Not bad.” said another.

When he got the looks from all the examiners, he was filled with pride.

Because he was the best among these ten.

Suddenly, something seemed strange to him.

At first, he thought that the examiners were admiring him. But, they weren’t even looking at him.

“….”

When he turned his head to the side in bewilderment, he saw a woman standing quietly, not too far from him.

Her waist-length blue hair and icy impression looked familiar.

How the hell is she here…?

Why was she in his same test group?
