The Otherworldly Adventures of a Super Naive Girl

Chapter 23: The Assessments Start

Fortunately most of those who fell in the water were sword users with a straightforward personality. They easily saved those more delicate magicians from drowning. Had this not been the case those magicians would surely have been even more miserable.

As everyone was discussing the situation, three virtual shadows appeared in the sky overhead. Even though they were only virtual shadows the aura each one projected was still very powerful, alerting everyone to the fact that these were very strong individuals.

Everyone seems to have made it safely. I know you must be curious so Ill get straight to the point. I am the supervisor for the second and third part of the assessment. The two standing beside me are supervisors as well. You will know our names if you pass the assessment and enroll as students at the academy.

Some of you have already correctly guessed that this is the site of the next phase of the assessment, indeed you are no longer on Tianfeng continent. The place youre currently in is a special space that holds magical items such as books, swords, and staffs. There are also swords hidden away here as well. You will make many discoveries and encounter situations more dangerous than you can imagine. For example if you are found and killed by the indigenous people of the island you will fail. However do not worry. Only your spiritual body is here so even if you are killed you will not be in any real danger. You will wake up from the dream but your physical body will not be harmed.

There are several more ways to fail. You will fail if you do not find any items. It can be considered that you have poor luck. You will fail if you find items but they do not suit you, for example if a magician finds a sword or if a sword userfinds a staff. Every item hidden in this space is categorized by their attributes. Only those who can find the items matching their own attributes will pass.

You have ten minutes to ask us questions. We will answer them as long as they dont violate the rules. As for those questions we cant answer, youll have to figure it out by exploring.

The prospective students gazed up at the trio. Standing in the middle was a 27 year old woman wearing a magic robe. Beside her were two men of about the same age, both of them carried a sword. Together the three exuded an impressively intimidating aura.

No one seemed to have the courage to ask anything until a voice rang out.

Excuse me, can I take items from someone else if they find what I need first? This question came from a black-eyed teenager.

At the sound of his voice everyone turned their attention to look at him. They saw that he was a short teenager dressed in a black robe. Everyone assumed he was a magician based on this impression. The attention didnt seem to fluster him at all. His face remained smooth without any hint of blush or nervousness. His composed demeanor left a good impression on the three supervisors.

Since the question came from a magician the female teacher in the center answered the question. That is allowed however fighting each other for it is not.

Any other questions?

The boys and girls below looked around at each other but no one replied. Seeing that no one had any more questions to ask, the female teacher spoke up again.

There are a few things I forgot to mention. There is a neutral place where you will be safe from attacks. This place is a neutral city surrounded by a blue wall. Each of you will also get a dimensional bag with ten silver coins inside. You can get more coins by earning money in the city, which you can then use to buy various goods.

Hidden inside the city are also clues to the location of a treasure map. If you want to find your attribute item quickly, and your luck is good, then I suggest you go to the front of the city.

That is all I have to say. The last two rounds start now and will end in one month. After a month we will come back and pick you up. Please work hard everyone.

The three figures immediately disappeared leaving the children no time to ask any thing else.

What should we do? asked a person looking around uneasily.

How about going to the city first? Didnt the teacher say theres a treasure map there? asked another.

With this everyone decided to go to the city together in order to find the map. However where was the city?! They were not told what direction it was in.

Some people decided to head out on their own while others formed teams. Feng Wu stood alone gazing at the sea and trees while listening to the world around her. She was concentrating on the sound of the trees and the waves.

Look there are people coming. Just like last time. Its strange theyre always falling from the sky.

Yeah yeah humans sure are weird. Dont know where they came from.

Look over there! The girl with the blue dress. The air on around her body is really comfortable to be around.

Shes coming over! Shes coming over!

The small trees along the beach were talking to each other and Feng Wu had heard their conversation. That was why she was walking over to them.

Who are you? We like your smell!

Feng Wu walked in front of the trees and greeted them. Hello, you can call me Tian Lan[notes] or you can call me Feng Wu.

You can hear us? The trees shook their leaves showing their interest.

Yes I can hear you. Can I ask you a question? Do you know the way to the city thats neutral? Its a city surrounded by blue walls.

We dont know. We were born here and have never left since birth. We only know that people will fall from the sky every now and again.

Do you know if anyone knows how to get there?

The little trees hung their branches down. It seemed like they didnt know.

It doesnt matter. Ill go farther up and ask. She absentmindedly stroked one of the nearby tree saplings.

The little tree was ecstatic. She touched me!

Ah! Touch me too!

Me too! Me too!

I want to be touched too!

The other trees who didnt get touched exclaimed their desire to be petted as well. Feng Wu reached out to other trees near the first one she touched. After a round of petting they were finally satisfied. This made Feng Wu laugh.

To her side not far away was a group of people who had just formed a team. Their objective was to head to the city. Interestingly enough both Zi Cheng and Ai Lin were on the same team, however neither of them was the group leader. Instead the leader was a sword user who had actually reached out to them to be a team. He looked like he was around fourteen or fifteen, with a good build and a straightforward personality. He had a charming smile and it was obvious from a glance that he was the one recruiting people.
