Souta wiped the blood on his mouth while looking at the Shield Class 1-A. This class was the weakest class among the class 1-A of the first year. The rank of the strongest student of this class was over thirty. They didn't even house a single person from the top 10 ranking.

It was different from the other class 1-A that houses the top 10 rankers. The power of this top 10 rankers was on different levels. They could even defeat some of the second years with their own strength.

Souta shook his head and walked towards the red flag of the Shield Class 1-A. He stretched out his hand and grabbed the red flag before he pulled it out.

He turned his head and looked at Lynn who was watching him from the side. He smiled and said, "One red flag acquired."

Lynn's face turned red. She quickly turned around and held her cheeks.

"Ah! This is bad! He is so cool!' Lynn thought when she saw Souta fought the whole Shield Class 1-A.

"What's wrong, Lynn?" Souta asked her with a confused expression.

"N-Nothing." Lynn faced him and said. She fixed her clothes and asked, "So, what should we do now?"

Souta walked towards her and gave her the red flag of the Shield Class 1-A. "Here, hold this for a while."

"O-Okay." Lynn nodded and she received the red flag from Souta.

"Then, let's go to the next location," Souta said as he looked up in the sky. He still could remember the position of other classes.

"Eh! Right now?" Lynn said. She then remembered what happened before and her cheeks turned red.

"Yeah, we only have one hour, so we need to gather the red flags as much as we can," Souta replied to her.

"Alright, I'm ready now," Lynn said as she straightened her body. She prepared herself.

Souta looked at her and nodded his head. He went beside her and wrapped his right arm around her waist.

Lynn's face was turning red because she could feel his arm around her waist.

[Air Walk]!!

Souta bent his knees and jumped in the air. He turned his head and saw Lynn's eyes were tightly shut.

He opened his mouth and said, "Grab tightly."

"O-Okay," Lynn said while her eyes were close. She then hugged Souta tightly.

Souta looked at her. He could her feel her soft body tightly close to his body. He then stepped in the air and charged towards the west.

This time he was going to hunt the other Class A.

The power of his attack was one hundred percent higher than his normal attack before. It was because of the effect of the [Corruption] trait skill that he gained from evolving to Goblin Corruptor.

The [Corruption] trait skill was really good. It will help him a lot in his future battles.

Souta hoped that the class they were heading was a Class A.

...

In the teacher's campsite...

They were using a crystal orb that projects what's happening in the special test. This device also came from the Mechanic Country.

Everyone saw how Souta soloed the whole Shield Class 1-A. The Shield Class 1-A didn't even manage to send a team to collect the red flag of other classes. Before they could do that, Souta appeared and defeated the whole class alone.

There's no hope for Shield Class 1-A anymore in this special test. Most of them were unconscious, while the remaining students couldn't even move their bodies.

Lando, the teacher of the Shield Class 1-A, looked at Bargan and said, "You've been blessed with a good student this time."

"Yeah." Bargan nodded at his words. He was proud that the other teachers were praising his students. There's no teacher who wouldn't be proud when someone was praising their student. It's the same for him. He just didn't show it on his face.

Lando was a man with short orange hair and strange legs. His legs were larger than normal people. It was also green in color. He was a demi-human. To be precise it was a grasshopper.

Grasshopper folk has a powerful ability. Their jumping ability was so powerful that they could jump a hundred meters in the sky in an instant.

Lando was one of the powerhouses of the Ladro Institute.

Lando stepped forward and said, "I'll withdraw my class. They couldn't continue this special test with their current condition."

The administrator of the special test nodded his head. He was a teacher of the second year. He opened his mouth and asked, "Are you sure? Quitting means that your class will not get any points in this special."

"Yeah, I'm sure. My students will understand it." Lando replied.

"Okay, I will respect your decision." The administrator nodded his head. He then declared that the Shield Class 1-A was out of the special test.

Bargan smiled while watching Souta's team, Bryan's team, and the remaining three teams. He saw that the other classes also dispatched a group to gather the red flags of their opponents.

The teachers watched the battles with their own eyes. They were evaluating each student that they saw potential.

Right now, several battles were happening in the mountain. When a gathering team arrived at the campsite of the other classes, it will always lead to a battle.

Bargan moved his eyes and looked at the other projection.

He saw a man in the projection. A man with shoulder-length dark purple hair. He had average build and there were six orbs attached on his forehead. These orbs were also his eyes. He also had two sharp fangs. His nails were sharp and the hair on his hand was unusually long. It looks like a gray color fur.

He was a demi-human. A redback spider. His name was Gyron Dwein. He was the top 1 ranker of the first year. They came from the Brawler Class 1-A.

Behind Gyron was three people. There were his teammates and they were tasked to collect the red flag of the other classes.

Gyron looked around and said, "Take the red flag. This Sword Class 1-C was done."

His teammates nodded at him before they went to the red flag and pulled it out. They already collected two red flags.

Their group defeated the whole Sword Class 1-C. Their battle was one-sided even though they have a clear disadvantage in terms of numbers.

The power of the top 1 ranker was entirely different from the rest of the first year.

...

At the campsite of the Mage Class 1-B...

Lumilia, Alice, Yujin, and the rest of the class were defending the red flag of their class.

A few minutes ago, a team from the Sword Class 1-A arrived in their camp. It leads to an all-out battle against the team from the Sword Class.

The worse thing was that the one who was leading the Sword Class was the top 3 ranker of the first year.

The Sword Class didn't even try to hide. They just walked forward like in the park towards their campsite.

"Yuriko... The top 3 ranker..." Lumilia muttered when she saw a woman with long pink hair that was tied in a ponytail.

Yuriko was human. She had a voluptuous body like that of a mature woman.

'This is bad.' She thought. She then looked at the four people behind Yuriko before she looked at her classmates. Their numbers were higher than the opponents but she wasn't sure if they could defeat the top 3 ranker with the group she had.

Yujin stepped forward and said, "Class rep, I will hold her for a while. You and the rest of our classmates deal with her comrades."

"Are you sure?" Lumilia asked.

"Yes, I can hold her for a while." Yujin nodded his head. "Five minutes is my limit." He added.

"Okay, I understand." Lumilia nodded her head and told her classmates that they will fight the other three while Yujin was going to stop the top 3 ranker.

They needed to knock out her comrades within five minutes. It will be bad if the other class arrived here while they were battling.

'In terms of sword skills, I know that I'm not a match for her. But... I'm not a pure swordsman. I'm what they called magic swordsman.' Yujin took a deep breath and he slowly pulled out his sword from its sheath.

Shiing!!

Yuriko looked at him before she looked around. She found that Yujin was the only one that was going to fight her. She opened her mouth and asked, "Hey, are you the only one who's going to fight me?"

"Yeah, is there any problem with that?" Yujin said.

"No." Yuriko shook her head and she pulled out the one edge sword that was hanging on her waist.

"Then, let's see how you're going to fight me alone!"

Randolf, a student of Mage Class 1-B, was sitting beside their red flag. He was watching the scene in front of him a smile on his face. He found this situation quite amusing.
