The brother and sister exchanged a few words with Buck and returned to the orphanage happily.
With the new weapons in hand and a few more bottles of potions in hand, Ofina could be said to have made a fortune from this encounter with the demon wolf. Dean Karin is not allowed to go to the Twilight Forest in the near future, and it is too dangerous to fight with the monsters, otherwise Rogg will want to hunt some more monsters.
There are still 20 days before the exam. Rogge needs to master the speed movement within these 20 days. There is no need to rush to adapt to the new bow, because the same weapons and equipment will be used during the exam.
Rogge, who was quick to learn everything, went from stumbling to fast movement to lightness and agility. He finally mastered the speed movement before the exam and officially became a junior wind magician.
Time flew by and there was an exam tomorrow. Roger and Ofina were chatting at the dining table after dinner.
"Brother, you have an exam tomorrow, are you nervous?"
"Are you not nervous? I have worked very hard, but who in the hospital is not working hard? It's hard to say whether I can get the top ten." Rogge, who was originally full of confidence, was slightly anxious before the exam. .
"Don't worry, you were 29th last year. Counting me, there are only 4 people left in front of you. The others left last year. I haven't heard of anyone as talented as me this year. You have become stronger again. So much, it’s definitely possible.”
"Besides, even if you are not selected by Holker College, I will not leave. I will stay with you." The smart Ofina guessed that Rogge's current nervousness was probably due to the fact that she was not selected last year. I feel a little guilty after waiting for a year.
"I won't let you wait for me anymore. I must pass the exam this year. You heard it when I went to Old Buck to get weapons before. A large-scale war against the orcs is likely to start in the near future. This kind of war usually lasts for several days. Year, if we enter the academy earlier, we might still be able to participate.”
"Then you perform well tomorrow, brother, come on!" Ofina encouraged.
"Okay, I will! Nana, thank you for staying with me all these years."
If nothing else happens, I will stay with you in the future, Ofina thought to herself. "Then I'll sleep with you today."
"This... is not good."
"What's wrong? You thanked me just now and now you want to drive me away, hum."
"No, no, it's because... I might not be able to sleep well while you are here. I have exams tomorrow." A boy and a girl share a bed. No matter how gentlemanly a 19-year-old boy is, he still can't stand it, no matter how much he treats Ophina as his sister. test. The first few times they slept together, Roger's hands and feet became stiff and unable to fall asleep due to the fragrant smell of Ofina next to him.
Ofina blushed and said, "I know the blessing technique. I will sleep after you fall asleep. I will definitely let my brother sleep calmly and comfortably."

On April 20, 362 Hess calendar, the Garin Orphanage ushered in its annual selection examination.
The selection exam is an exam specially designed for orphanages. Each orphanage uses it to select outstanding talents to study in major colleges. It can be said to be a key point in students' lives.
Different from the ordinary school graduation examination, the selection examination is for those aged 12 to 16, and anyone who meets the age limit can take it. The graduation examination is required to be taken after 5 years of study in school.
Students in ordinary schools can choose to study in colleges after passing all subjects in the graduation examination. Whether they are good or bad, they can always learn. If the students in the orphanage have not been admitted to the academy after turning 16, they can only choose to join the army and become an ordinary soldier, or receive the orphanage's 1 gold coin fee and be self-reliant from now on.
Therefore, the selection examination is more cruel. There are more than 2,500 orphans in the entire Galin Orphanage, and nearly 1,000 of them are old enough to take the examination, and less than one-tenth of them can enter the academy.
With fewer places, outstanding talents can be selected; the age group that can participate is longer, and unexpected factors such as poor performance and bad luck can be fully eliminated. After such selection, the remaining children are basically mediocre in qualifications, not working hard enough, and have some physical or character defects.
The selection examination is divided into two parts: civil and military. The essay is a paper test, and the questions are all common sense knowledge taught in class, such as magic and martial arts knowledge, geography knowledge, racial knowledge, etc. Wu Ze is competing against each other in a group-based point-based battle. The ones with the top points will advance to the next round until the final battle. Of course, the students' basic qualities also need to be examined, such as magic power, energy, and magic and martial arts skills.
Rogge was woken up by Ofina in the morning, and the boy who was hypnotized by the blessing technique slept peacefully. After having breakfast, the two went to the main teaching building of the Galin Orphanage.
Today we have a paper test. For top academics like Rogge and Ofina, the paper test is free and there is no difficulty. Despite this, Rogge still answered every question seriously. Unlike Ofina, who wrote quickly, she handed in the papers well in advance for each exam.
"Ding ding ding..." the invigilator rang the bell, and the last test ended. Roger put down his pen and breathed a sigh of relief. The test was stable.
"Brother is so slow to answer."
"I call it prudent. Why do you answer so quickly? I won't give you any extra points."
"Okay. I want to sleep with you tonight!"
At night, Rogge braved the blue light of the blessing spell and was hypnotized again.
The next day, the highlight of the exam, the martial arts test, began. Due to the continuous wars in the Nalan Empire, the national custom is martial arts, and the martial arts test accounts for 70% of the total selection test score. The martial arts test in Jialin Orphanage is a group of 4 people. Each person in the group competes with others. In the end, the person with the highest points advances to the next round. A total of more than 1,000 students will participate in the martial arts test, and the top four will be selected after four rounds of tests. The top 4 will then go through a final competition to determine the first place.
The outcome of each competition is only one scoring point. The judgment of the situation, the grasp of opportunities, and the proficiency of martial arts and magic release in the competition are all scoring points. Both sides of the competition will be scored by the invigilator based on their performance.
After all competitions are over, students can choose a teacher from their favorite college to challenge them. If the teacher feels that the student is good, they can also enter the college to study. This kind of challenge can only be given once to each student, and the difficulty is not low. It is mainly a last chance for those unlucky ones who are unlucky enough to be grouped every year.
Before the competition, all students have to test their basic qualities. Testing the magic value and energy value is very simple. You only need to use magic power or energy against the test device and read the value fed back by the device after a while.
The full name of the test device is Joyce's Column, which looks like a one-meter-high column surrounded by one person. It was invented by Joyce, the great inventor of the Empire, two hundred years ago. Its birth allowed everyone's total magic power and energy to be reflected in numerical form, which caused a great sensation at the time.
It was Rogge's turn to test. He came to the Joyce Pillar, pressed his palm on the sensing area, and output magic power to the device. After about 1 minute, a blue number was displayed on the crystal piece on the top of the device: 704. Rogge removed his palm and waited for a while, the numbers disappeared, then pressed it again to output energy instead. After another minute, the crystal piece showed a yellow number: 760.
It's a pretty good foundation. You can enter a fairly good college with just these two basic values. Of course, just two numbers can't impress the teachers at Holk College.
At this time, Ofina also walked out of another test room. Her magic value was 2077 points and her energy value was 217 points, very luxurious data.
"Brother, have you finished the test? Let's draw lots." Ofina pulled Rogge and ran to draw lots.
The selection rounds are determined by drawing lots, with 4 people in groups, a total of 251 groups. Rogge drew the 52nd group and Ofina drew the 128th group. The huge training ground in the orphanage is divided into 6 competition venues, and the competitions are held in these venues. In the first round, each person will have three games, one game per day. The venue is very open, and teachers and students can have a panoramic view of the entire venue from the high stands. Those with poor eyesight can also use binoculars.
"Brother, come on." Group 52 and Group 128 are not in the same venue, so Rogge and Ofina have to wait for the competition separately.
"Okay, you too...well, be gentle."
