Chapter 547

So Dak didn't care too much.

When he finally finished the final project of astronomy class, it was already the third week of May.

In the first two weeks, he drew a total of 5 drops of "pride" and 5 drops of "greed", and the remaining "pride" 6.5 points and "greed" 6.5 points were all stored in the insect tree.

Then on Thursday afternoon of the third week, the History of Magic class finally arranged the final project!

As one of the major courses, the History of Magic class has always been an assessment mode of theoretical examination combined with classroom defense.

But every professor has his own ideas.

Professor Ryan Hakes believed that the theoretical examination of the History of Magic was not very meaningful, and changed it to an open-book project paper, which is the same model as astronomy.

He listed a total of eight topics, which students can choose by themselves.

But in fact, the difficulty of each topic is not low, and they are all boring and uninteresting, which makes the first-year magicians wail.

After all, the History of Magic is a major course, unlike astronomy, which is an interest course.

Once the score of this course is not up to standard, you will face failure, make-up exams, and even tutoring.

If you fail multiple courses, you may face repeating the grade - that's really the end!

Therefore, although the first-year students are wailing in their hearts, they are still working hard to find information and complete the project.

The same is true for Dak. These days, his spare time is basically between the library and the dormitory, and he is getting busier and busier.

In addition to the history of magic, the assessment methods of other courses have been announced one after another during class.

Among them, summoning, magic theory, potion science and dueling classes are both theoretical written tests and practical tests.

Only arithmetic and magic beasts have only theoretical written tests.

Among them, the requirements of magic beasts are relatively low, and they are temporarily classified as interest courses.

All practical tests will be conducted in the fourth week of May, and theoretical written tests will start on the 28th.

In short, papers, experiments, and reviews fill the students' entire May.

So much so that the first-year students' attention to the competition for the college cup has decreased a lot.

Many people were studying hard when they suddenly realized that the competition between the different branches was about to begin!

Although freshmen could not participate in the competition between the different branches, the sense of collective honor inherited from the long history still made them deeply involved.

The atmosphere between students from different branches became much worse because of this.

"From 8pm on Friday to 8pm on Sunday, for 48 hours."

"Students from each branch from grade 2 to grade 6 will select three students from each branch and grade to form a team to enter the dungeon adventure. Finally, the points will be calculated based on the behavior of each group."

"The school will issue several high-score tasks before the game starts. If you can complete the tasks first, you can get high points."

"In addition, there are extra points for defeating class bosses and exploring unknown areas."

"There is also a weighted coefficient for lower grades relative to higher grades."

"So in the dungeon adventure competition, the points obtained by higher grades may not be able to steadily suppress lower grades."

"It's a pity that the dungeon adventure competition is not live, and the situation can only be estimated through the changes in the points of each branch."

Dake put down the rule book and continued to review.

He is not very interested in other people's dungeon adventures.

This time next year will be his stage.

...

It was not until 7pm on Sunday that he temporarily put down his pen and paper, left the dormitory and came to the common room.

The common room was already crowded at this time.

The students of the Nobles Academy gathered here and discussed the changes in points fiercely.

The four branches, five grades and twenty adventure teams in the underground city have obviously accelerated in the last hour, and the temporary points of each branch are rising at a very fast speed.

Dak found the position of the first grade, sat down next to Duolong, and asked: "How is it, who has the advantage?"

Duolong's cheeks were flushed with excitement, and he immediately said excitedly: "Of course the Nobles Academy has the advantage!"

But the fat boy Pistan beside him seemed a little nervous: "Xiaoyou is in the lead, but he may be surpassed at any time. This year's Magic Academy is so strong!"

Dak took out the branch card and clicked on the bar chart. Sure enough, he found that the temporary credits of the Nobles Academy were only slightly higher than those of the Magic Academy, and the temporary credits of the Knight Academy and the Fool Academy were also catching up.

The overall strength gap between the four branches is not as big as imagined. The contestants selected by each grade are also top students, and they are basically evenly matched.

"There is still half an hour before the critical period?" Dak thought for a while and said.

Pistan nodded immediately and said, "Yes, in half an hour, the strongest mission BOSS of this dungeon competition will appear. Whoever can find and defeat the BOSS in this half hour will most likely take the lead. Even the Fool House, which currently has the lowest temporary credits, has a chance to win the championship instantly!"

"The strongest mission BOSS... I'm afraid that with the level of the second and third graders, it will be difficult to defeat it even if it is found."

Dake looked down at the sorting card again, and suddenly his eyelids jumped, and he said in surprise: "Did this Fool House complete some high-scoring mission?"

Almost at the same time, exclamations rang out one after another in the common room.

The bar chart representing the Fool House suddenly soared a lot, making this college, which originally had the lowest temporary credits, jump to the highest!

Dak turned his head slightly and found that Duolong, who was still excited just now, was now slapping the table hard, like a poor man who was suddenly killed by a reversal in an advantageous game.

The fat man Pistan quickly raised the gap on the table and comforted him: "Don't panic, Duolong, we have a chance!"

"Yes, don't give up until the end, don't give up until the end!" Duolong clenched his fists and muttered repeatedly to calm down.

Dak observed for another week and found that many people were as excited as Duolong.

He couldn't help but think: "Why do these people seem to value the College Cup more than me?"

His emphasis on the College Cup is based on the need for the Holy Grail.

But these students now seem to be simply because of the so-called sense of honor of the Noble Academy?

...

Just as Dak was analyzing the psychology of his classmates, the bar chart on the division card changed drastically again.

The Knight Academy, the Magic Academy, and even the Noble Academy, which was relegated to second place, seemed to have suddenly completed a high-score task, causing the temporary credits to soar.

Then, when there was only half an hour left before the dungeon competition, this increase suddenly slowed down.

According to the predictions of the senior students, this is most likely because the senior groups of the four colleges found the strongest BOSS at the same time!

"How many points can this mission BOSS provide?" Dak couldn't help asking.

Pistan immediately picked up a document from his side and took a look, then looked up and said: "One hundred thousand points."

"One hundred thousand points?" Dak thought, "I remember that in the duel competition of the college cup, each win is 10,000 points?"

Pistan nodded and said: "That's right, the duel competition adopts the mode of confrontation between the sub-colleges. First, it is a confrontation between the grades, and then a cross-level confrontation. Each grade can only send one person, and everyone has a chance to challenge the cross-level challenge.

Each duel win can get 10,000 basic points, and one grade can win 10,000 basic points. The college with the most points can get an additional 100,000 points of winning bonus."

"In other words, these 100,000 points can offset the final winning prize of the duel confrontation."

Dak couldn't help squinting.

Because it is temporary credits, these tens of thousands of temporary credits have no practical significance no matter how many there are, and the main thing is the difference.

A difference of 100,000 points can lay the foundation for victory.

Once the strongest mission boss of the dungeon competition and the winner of the duel competition are obtained by two colleges respectively, the winner will rely on other accumulation.

At this time, the actual total credits and the temporary credits converted from the final examination scores, which are not much different, have a sense of existence.

…

The atmosphere became obviously anxious afterwards, and the students in the common room were staring at the bar chart of the school card, waiting for the final result.

Until the last two minutes left before eight o'clock, the temporary credit column of the School of Magic suddenly jumped up!

The whole audience wailed!

"It's over, this year's Holy Grail is over!"

"Why is it the School of Magic? Why is it the School of Magic?"

"Quick, calculate the credit gap..."

The students screamed one after another, and there were sounds of slapping tables, watermelons and carrots everywhere.

Next to Duolong, who looked ashen, Dak immediately calculated the credit gap and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The slight advantage that the Nobles Academy had established at the beginning worked, and the credit gap between the two academies was still less than 100,000.

This means that as long as the duel competition is won, the Nobles Academy will have a high probability of winning the Academy Cup.

In other words, there is still a chance.

Of course, it is better to have a chance than not to have one.

The atmosphere on the scene gradually eased.

The juniors talked about it.

The seniors, however, were like deflated balloons, drooping their heads and leaving one after another.

Looking at the reactions of the seniors, Dak crossed his fingers and estimated: "It seems that we have to be mentally prepared for not getting the Holy Grail this year."

It is not so easy to win the Academy Cup Duel Competition, especially when the fourth grade of the Magic Academy has the "Silver Dragon Girl".

Last year's Duel Competition was like this. The "Silver Dragon Girl" not only won a victory point in the duel with the same grade, but also won a second victory point in the challenge of the higher level, helping the Magic Academy to win the final victory in the duel.

If the House of Nobles had not gained such a huge advantage in the dungeon competition, it would have been impossible to win the College Cup last year.

"Well, you have to rely on yourself for everything."

Dake took a deep breath and stood up from his seat.

Fortunately, his current demand for the Holy Grail is not that high.

"The Lost Soul Curse" has been upgraded to the primary level with the help of Professor Harvey.

"The Underworld Art" has also reached the threshold of breakthrough with unremitting efforts.

Dake patted Duolong on the shoulder and said, "Don't be discouraged. Even if you lose this year, there is still next year."

Chapter 442 Dak Dimon Final Examination (4.5k)

The success or failure of a moment may make people sleepless, but after waking up, they will eventually face a broader tomorrow.

More than 20 days have passed in May, and the first-year students of St. Marian College finally ushered in the first exam week.

After the final review from Monday to Wednesday, there will be a practical examination every morning or afternoon from Thursday to Friday, a total of four courses.

For first-year students, this is the final summary of a year of hard study and also the key to whether they can have a good long vacation.

Some people are gearing up, some are improvising, some just want to pass, and some are aiming for perfect scores.

As long as you observe carefully, you can read each person's personality tendency from the quality.

It was already ten o'clock in the evening when Duck came out of the library, and there were only a few people left in the reading room.

He held the book and walked in the quiet corridor. He was looking forward to the experimental assessment that would start tomorrow.

This was a mentality he had never had in his previous life. He never thought that one day he would also like studying and look forward to exams.

Perhaps it was because he really needed an exam to make a formal summary of his hard work this year.

"In short, the goal is to be first in grade!"

…

There are so many talented first-year students this year, and it is not easy to come out on top in the written examination.

Both Sara Swati and Emma Metis are extremely strong opponents.

But Duck's strength lies in practice.

The four practical assessments were the key to his high scores.

After returning to the dormitory, he spread the excerpted exam schedule on the table with a hint of confidence on his lips.

"Starting at eight o'clock tomorrow morning, it will be the practical assessment time for the first summoning class."
