The real adventure will begin

"Level 5. Very good. Put the items on the table." The two examiners finally showed some change in their expressions.

Someone reaching level 5 was a very rare thing to happen. That was a reason to celebrate.

"!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Qin Li felt his heart tighten in desperation. He never thought that Lin Hai could be two levels above him.

It was necessary to understand that the higher the level, the higher the difficulty level. Also, the place only had two levels for creatures, level 1 or level 5.

Level 1 creatures gave little experience to level 3 or 4, so it was very difficult to level up to level 5 in four days. Because it was still necessary to walk around and wait for the creatures to appear again.

This only happened every minute, it was necessary to walk through several places to find the creature.

The other villagers erupted with excitement because it was very difficult for someone level 5 to appear in the starting area. Adults have seen this only once in a while in their lives.

Lin Hai's parents were very proud of their son, but the pride turned to irritation as the words left his mouth.

"Sir, I apologize. But I don't have any items with me. Someone robbed me a few moments ago" Lin Hai said in a serious tone.

"!!!!!" Qin Li couldn't believe what he was hearing as it was impossible.

"..." The two examiners just looked at each other before announcing.

"As participant Lin Hai does not have the required items on the list, you are disqualified from the test" One of them announced. They could not approve a participant who did not complete the requirements.

"Thank you for your understanding." Lin Hai rejoined the line with a victorious, sarcastic smile on his face.

"..." Qin Li's face was dark and ugly because this was obviously a tease for him.

"Next"

Liu Yang walked away even the examiners and information was shown to him

"Level 5. Very good. Put the items on the table" The two examiners were surprised to see two people reach level 5.

This was very rare to happen.

But when they saw the name, they remembered people from the village saying that he was the young man who didn't want to go to Combat School, but travel the world and be an adventurer.

"!!!!" The villagers celebrated again because one more person reached level 5, but they know that Liu Yang will continue in the test because his goals were different.

His parents were happy with this achievement, but a little worried about him because it must have been very tiring and dangerous.

Qin Li felt all his pride and humor disappear when he heard that Liu Yang also reached level 5. For he was only level 3 and the others passed him in rank.

This was very humiliating because he acted arrogantly before.

"Sir, I apologize, but I don't have the items either" He spoke with a serious tone.

"Since participant Liu Yang doesn't have the items, you are also disqualified. You can return to the queue"

Liu Yang walked back casually.

"Now, we will announce the five participants who passed the first test. Qin Li, Zi Long, Wu Lin, Sun Bai, and Zi Fu. Tomorrow morning, we will leave on a trip to the City of Beginning and use the transport stone to the Combat School, the trip will take two days. After we arrive, you will have three more days to level up and reach level 5. After that, you will choose your class and the second test stage will begin. You can rest." After the announcement, the two examiners packed up all of the participants' items and returned to the cabin where they are resting.

The village gave them a place to live.

For the rest of the day, a big party was prepared to celebrate the success of the Coming of Age Challenge for all the youth.

…

The party lasted several hours before ending with the burning of a large bonfire to signal the coming of age of the seven young people who passed the challenge.

At home…

"Liu Yang, we are proud of you. It was way beyond expectations that you could manage to reach level 5. When I started, I only reached level 3." Liu Yang's father commented with an embarrassed tone.

"Son, you don't have to try so hard. Sometimes a little rest is good for your health." His mother was worried that he might try too hard and not take care of his health.

"Mom, I'm fine. I only managed to get to that level because that fatty helped me a little. Otherwise, it would have been impossible." Liu Yang had to admit that Lin Hai was a great help.

Without his heavy sledgehammer, he would never have the strength to defeat an Elite Devouring Mushroom.

"That is good. Have some trusted friends around. Liu Yang, what are you going to do tomorrow? Your friends will go to Combat School and won't be able to be in the village"

"Father, I plan to start my trip in the afternoon" Liu Yang already planned to leave the village to train the Devouring Mushroom.

"I see… It seems like a grown child can no longer be kept at home. Liu Yang, take good care of the sword."

"I will take good care of the sword"

"wua wua wua" The baby made some sounds during the conversation.

"Liu Yang, your younger brother wants to say goodbye"

"I hope you grow up well and have good friends" He hugged his younger brother.

…

On the morning of the next day, the examiners and the five youths were already on their horses along with Lin Hai and his father, the pair would also travel, but for other reasons. They would be taken to the nearest town, but it took twelve hours to travel.

The inhabitants just waved their hands as they watched the group disappear over the horizon.

As the sun reached the highest peak in the sky, the gates were opened again and a young man wearing leather and cloth clothes along with a backpack came out.

At his waist were two swords, one wooden and one metal. He was Liu Yang.

His real adventure will begin.
