Until the BOSS's health was down to 40%.
"Roar!"
The BOSS let out a roar, and countless fireballs quickly rose around its body.
Each fireball was the size of a basketball, and at a glance, there were at least a hundred of them!
Then, as if they cost nothing, these fireballs came crashing down in a large area, and their speed was incredibly fast.
Much faster than a mage's fireball spell.
This was another skill of the BOSS, [Meteor Fire Rain], which could gather a large number of fireballs nearby and hurl them at the target until all the fireballs were exhausted.
Moreover, each fireball could inflict 150 points of fire damage.
The damage didn't seem high, but if all these fireballs hit one person, no one could survive.
However, Jiang Chen was prepared. He activated his black wings and flew into the air.
At ten times the speed, Jiang Chen, with a trace of afterimage, swiftly maneuvered through the dense fireballs.
Just like that, he braved the fireballs like a rain of bullets and reached the BOSS in less than three seconds, flying past it and appearing behind it!
Then, Jiang Chen's skill was ready.
A dazzling hexagram magic array emerged.
-5340! (Double Casting)
Under the glow of the magic array, the BOSS's health continued to decrease.
With the wings on his back, this Fire Wyvern clone couldn't do anything to Jiang Chen.

Killing it wasn't difficult for Jiang Chen!
"Once you can fly, many BOSSes become easy to deal with!"
Jiang Chen wore a faint smile as he continuously attacked the BOSS.
...
Outside the pavilion.
Many people were increasingly surprised that Jiang Chen hadn't appeared yet.
After all, not coming out meant the ability test was still ongoing.
This left many people in disbelief.
"Is he still aiming for a five-star skill?"
"That's too much. I've been at the academy for years and never heard of anyone obtaining a five-star skill."
"He's probably just holding on, should be coming out soon."
Many students were discussing.
"Junior Mortal World is strong, but I've never heard of anyone obtaining a five-star skill in recent years, not just at Skyward Academy, but at the other seven academies too. Why is he still in there?"
Kai Qiang spoke, looking at the skill pavilion with a mix of expectation and confusion.
"Judging by their expressions, it seems like getting a five-star skill is quite difficult."
The speaker was the female priest from Qian Xingtianxia's team, Late-night Fairy.
"After all, it's a five-star skill. It's normal for it to be hard to obtain, but..."
Qian Xingtianxia wore a confident expression and said slowly, "I am determined to get it!"
"Young Master Qian is mighty!"
Zainxia Faye chimed in with a timely compliment.
On the other side.
"Why hasn't big brother come out yet?"
Yuna's beautiful eyes were fixed on the skill pavilion, looking eager.
"He can't come out too soon. If he comes out early, it means Brother Mortal World didn't get the five-star skill."
Qing Ying had already come to Yuna's side and explained to her.
"Why?"
Yuna was a bit puzzled.
"Boss, this ability test requires challenging a BOSS. Coming out too quickly means the challenge failed."
The speaker was Grey, who knew well what the ability test entailed.
"That's not right."
Yuna shook her head.
"What's not right?"
Grey was puzzled, as were Qing Ying and Tao Xiaoyao, who looked at Yuna with some confusion.
"Since it's a BOSS challenge, wouldn't quickly defeating the BOSS mean coming out quickly?" Yuna said matter-of-factly.
"Boss, you make a good point, but the BOSS inside is too powerful to be quickly defeated." Grey explained in detail.
"I believe in big brother!"
Yuna smiled faintly, raising her small pink fist as if cheering for Jiang Chen.
A little further away.
The expressions of the three academy teachers became increasingly serious.
Because Jiang Chen had been in the lit fourth floor of the pavilion for some time.
Normally, he should have come out by now.
"Could he really be about to pass the five-star ability test?"
Lubu murmured in disbelief.
"Impossible, don't scare yourself. It's only been a short time. To pass the five-star ability test, it would take at least several tens of minutes."
Fa Li said calmly.
"To hold on this long, he's already the best student in recent years. Let's wait, he should be coming out soon."
Tie Zhan touched the sword at his waist, somewhat regretfully saying, "It's a pity he's a priest. If he were a warrior, I could teach him sword techniques."
They continued talking.
Suddenly.
The highest level of the five-story pavilion lit up without warning.
At this moment, the entire pavilion was glowing with white light, dazzling and brilliant.
For a moment, the three academy teachers couldn't help but open their mouths, as if witnessing something unbelievable.
