Transcension Academy - Chapter 44:

“Ring.”

<Mock test for the transcendents!>

<Special know-how of the Transcension Academy accumulated over the years!>

<Complete analysis of the past questions of transcendent students in each subject!>

<Including incorrect answers and difficult problem explanation videos!>

A notification window appeared as if it had been waiting.

Seo-joon looked blankly at the notification window, forgetting even the thought of listening to Xiang Yu’s lecture.

Transcendent Mock Test.

He didn’t know exactly what format was, but the purpose of the mock test seemed similar to that of the professional hunter test therefore, Seo-joon had no choice but to question.

“···… Is there really a transcendent test?”

In fact, Seo-joon did not know in detail what transcendence exactly meant other than what Mentor initially defined it as “those who have crossed the limits of their race.”

However, Seo-joon’s thoughts while experiencing the Transcension Academy were regarded as some that reached the limit of a field, whether it was battle, production or art.

But there was a transcendent mock test?

Doesn’t that mean that there are some criteria for passing, like the professional hunter test, and that there is someone who evaluates it?

So a transcendent has a license like a professional hunter?

Seo-joon thought of the Transcension Academy commercial he saw the first time.

There were words related to fifth-grade fables and ninth-grade Sword masters in the advertisement.

At that time, Seo-joon thought it was a metaphorical expression that was just an advertisement, but now that he looked back, it didn’t seem like it was just that.

He suddenly became curious about Transcendents and the Transcension Academy however Seo-joon quickly cleared away his questions.

“Is there a reason for me to take the transcendent mock test?”

Seo-joon wasn’t in a position to think about it yet. Objectively speaking, Seo-joon was not confident of passing the professional hunter test right now.

Although he stood out in the Academy competition or the Dungeon Sweep contest, he was technically only in the fourth division.

Even in the third or second division alone, there were a lot of talented students, not to mention Hunter Mill, Ale, and Gaon, which are called Korea’s top three academies.

Therefore, the Hunter Mill mock test next month was more meaningful for Seo-joon.

And before that, it was more important for Seo-joon to complete one lecture before the free pass period ended than to participate in the transcendent mock test.

Seo-joon thought so, and opened Xiang Yu lecture without regrets.

[The mock test is coming up soon, right? If you can, you should participate since it’s not easy to have a chance to objectively figure out what your current position is.]

[You guys need to be a little self-aware. Isn’t it time to start shrugging your shoulders a little bit while using the power of Reverse Divergence? Kahahahaha!]

[No way! You guys are trash! But if I say this a hundred times, you won’t listen, so take a look. I feel how trash you guys are!]

The lecture came to an end.

“Ring.”

<Mock test for transcendents!>

<Special know-how of the Transcension Academy accumulated over the years!>

<Complete analysis of the past questions of transcendent students in each subject!>

<Including incorrect answers and difficult problem explanation videos!>

A reminder window appeared as if it had been waiting again.

“What is it?”

Seo-joon looked at the notification window, which emerged with ridiculous eyes.

“No, wait a minute. Isn’t this a recorded video?”

A video he had no idea when it was recorded.

It didn’t make sense that Chiron and Xiang Yu would mention the mock exam at the same time. Even if the Transcension Academy had timed it, it was impossible.

How could they say such a thing at the same time if the time of the lecture was different for each student?

“Could it be the same for Shakyamuni and Merlin?”

Seo-joon played the lectures of Shakyamuni and Merlin just in case. Of course, he didn’t listen to the whole lecture, just the end.

[The mock test is coming up soon]

[Don’t get too hung up on how you do on the test…]

At the end of the lecture, Shakyamuni and Merlin also mentioned something about the mock test.

“……What?”

Seo-joon was quite puzzled. He hadn’t heard anything about the mock test in the lecture before but no matter how much he thought about it, he couldn’t figure out the answer.

“Is the mock test that important?”

Seo-joon immediately accessed the community, “The Chatter of Beginners.”

He set his search keywords to “mock test” and “combat class” and searched.

A slew of posts popped up on his screen. Most of them said things like, “I messed up my mock test, what should I do?” or “The questions are too hard.”

Seo-joon slowly scrolled through the posts one by one and one post in particular caught his eye.

“[Be in debt, then become a debtor]: When Should I Take the Transcendent Mock Test?”

Seo-joon pressed the post.

.

[Hello freshmen. Everyone is having a hard time preparing for transcendence.

I heard it’s hard, but after experiencing it, I didn’t know it would be this hard.

Now, I am entering my 10th year, and I can’t even see the way to go.

In that sense, the mock test is coming up but I’m wondering if I should or shouldn’t watch this.

Actually, it’s embarrassing, but I’m not at the level to take the transcendent exam.

I am still taking an introductory lecture, but I wonder if it is necessary to take a mock test while cutting causality.

I asked the senior students around me, and some don’t need to take it while some of them do.

I don’t know what to do because everyone says different things.

I aim to become a combat transcendent.]

.

.

“In a way, the situation is similar to mine.”

Seo-joon scrolled down to check the comments.

.

.

[I’ll definitely transcend this time!]: If you’re in your 10th year, you’re a total beginner. Can you use Reverse Divergence?

[Be in debt, then become a debtor]: Yes. I can use Reverse Divergence freely, but beyond that…

[I’ll definitely transcend this time!]: Hmph, that’s a bit vague, but it’s common for mock exams to end with some theory and then move on.

[Be in debt, then become a debtor]: That’s true.

[Forest Ruler]: I have a slightly different opinion than you. I think there’s something to be gained from mock exams even if you’re lacking in theory, so I would definitely recommend taking them, but it depends on your situation. Have you talked to your mentor?

[Be in debt, then become a debtor]: My mentor told me that it’s okay to take the test if causality allows it.

[Forest Ruler]: Then I recommend you take it. Of course, you’ll probably get a terrible grade, but you’re a first-timer, so you’ll be able to progress in your lecture.

[I’ll definitely transcend this time!]: Ah, now that I think about it, I’ve made progress in the lectures, so I think you should look at it as Forest Ruler said.

[Be in debt, then become a debtor]: Is it really that much progress?

Forest Ruler]: You’re taking an introductory course, so if you go beyond the introductory level, it’s just fine, but at your current level, you’ll make a lot of progress.

[Be in debt, then become a debtor]: I see! I’ll take the test then! Thank you for your advice ^^

.

.

That’s how the comments ended.

“You can increase the progress of the lectures?”

Seo-joon opened his eyes wide.

The next day Seo-joon headed to Dream Academy early in the morning.

Seo-yoon has not yet appeared since she was busy recruiting new students so Seo-joon immediately took out his smartphone but instead of listening to Chiron and Xian Yu’s lectures, he checked the notification window that came yesterday.

<Mock test for transcendents!>

<Special know-how of the Transcension Academy accumulated over the years!>

<Complete analysis of the past questions of transcendent students in each subject!>

<Including incorrect answers and difficult problem explanation videos!>

A notification window about the Transcendent Mock Test.

“Should I take a look?”

Seo-joon thought for a moment.

The first thing Seo-joon had to do now was to raise the progress of Chiron and Xiang Yu lectures and complete them.

In 25…No, now that a day has passed, in a short time of 24 days. Therefore, Seo-joon did not think about taking the mock test for transcendents.

It wasn’t meaningful at Seo-joon’s level. However, while reading the forum yesterday he confirmed that this transcendent mock test seemed to be able to significantly increase the progress of the lecture.

Since for Seo-joon the progress rate was the biggest priority, had no reason to refuse.

Of course, various questions remained about the mock test and the Transcension Academy, but there was nothing Seo-joon could do right now.

“Mentor must be thinking of coming after the Free Pass expires.”

Seo-joon shook his head.

Well, there were only 24 days left, so he could ask all the questions then but now was the time to do what he could.

Seo Jun pressed the link that came with the notification window without hesitation.

<We are measuring your appropriate application price by calculating the cause and effect··>

Then the cause and effect l price measurement notification window appeared.

“Anyway, there’s no place that doesn’t cost money at this academy.”

Seo-joon laughed without realizing it. Actually, he was kind of expecting it.

“The question is how much will it cost?”

Seo-joon looked at his smartphone quietly and after a while.

<Free of charge for the first time!>

<Would you like to take the mock test for transcendents? Y/N>

“The first one is free.”

Seo-joon pondered for a while since it also meant that if it was free the cause and effect would not matter.

In other words, 100 million people are free. Even 10 billion people are free.

“It’s money. I can make more money.”

Seo-joon shook his head.

In the first place, the lack of money was the same, and above all, there seemed to be a separate season for the mock test for transcendents.

In short, it means he would have to wait until next season if he didn’t take the test now and he didn’t know when the next season was.

Seo-joon pressed Y without hesitation.

.

[1.Please select the profession you wish to transcend].

①Combat ②Production ③Medical ④Mind ⑤Art ⑥Other

Seo-joon naturally chose combat and the next question appeared.

[2.Please select the rank you want to achieve].

① Fifth-grade fable

② Grade 7 Grand Sword Master

③ Grade 9 Sword Master.

④ Civilian Transcendent.

.

.

Various classes were listed below.

“Is there really such a thing as a license?”

Seo-joon’s mind raced with questions.

Which one should he choose?

“Probably Grade 9, right?”

Seo Jun chose the Grade 9 Swordmaster.

Grades don’t mean much to him now, but he still had to have something to show for it.

There were about ten more questions after that, and he chose accordingly.

.

.

<You are taking a mock test. Please wait a moment.>

<Completed.>

.

.

<This mock test is based on questions from the Transcendent exam>.

<Difficulty level is based on the Transcendent Examination and does not reflect personal factors.>

<There are 7 subjects in total, and the score is measured based on the questions and points for each subject.>

<Please note that this is a mock test and may differ from the actual exam.>

.

<First subject. (Combat power)>

<You are taking the first stage. Please wait a moment.>

“What, does it start right away?”

Seo-joon was surprised and hurriedly picked up Longinus’ spear.

He looked around, but nothing happened.

“……How does the exam work?”

Seo-joon looked at his smartphone again but all he could see was a notification that he was taking the First stage.

Still, it’s a transcendent test, so even stage 1 will be quite difficult.

“It said that there are 15 stages in total, so considering the level of the Transcendent, even if it’s stage 1, will there be a 5-star or 6-star monster?”

Even if the first stage is 5-stars, and even if it goes up by one star, the 15th stage would be 20 stars.

And 20 star monsters…

“Ring.”

<The question will be presented.>

Suddenly, a terrible roar broke out on the smartphone screen, and something small popped out of the screen.

It gradually increased in size and soon filled Seo-joon’s view.

The horns on the head, the huge body, the big wings on both sides.

“…Dragon?”

<Time limit: 30 minutes.>

A reminder came.

“……Are you crazy?”

Seo-joon was dumbfounded.
