Chapter 135: Irregular License Exam (22)
But that excited look disappeared when he turned to look at the other two in the room with him and he said, "Get ready, it\'s about to happen. Don\'t hold me back, or else."
Neither of them responded to this, they just gave a simple nod as they let him push them around however he wanted.
After a few more minutes, the final red light lit up on the mural.
However, there was nothing that changed…
After waiting for a minute, the young man with the shield\'s face twisted and he said, "What\'s going on? We already did what it said and it\'s still not opening?"
As he said this, the expressions of the young man with the pompadour and the magical girl changed.
The magical girl\'s face filled with guilt while the young man with the pompadour turned to look at the magical girl with a worried look.
It was clear that he was more worried about how this would affect her than himself.
But then…
There was the sound of stone grinding.
There was a red light that appeared in the center of the mural.
Then the mural started to move to one side.
Seeing this, the young man with the shield revealed a wide smile before saying, "I knew it wouldn\'t be wrong! I knew that this was the only way!"
The expressions of the young man with the pompadour and the magical girl became a bit ugly, but they didn\'t say anything as they followed the young man with the shield forward.
But I was different.
The moment that the door opened, I could feel the powerful mana that was coming from inside.
Whatever was behind this mural definitely wasn\'t weak, but it didn\'t seem like the three of them noticed this…
Long Shui Ling beside me also seemed to sense something as she revealed a trace of fear on her face. But then after turning to look at me, she revealed a determined look and faced forward again.
After waiting for a bit for them to go in, we followed behind them.

There wasn\'t a long corridor behind this mural and it didn\'t take long for us to reach our destination.
The room here was surprisingly bigger than we thought.
It was a large space that was almost as big as the space that I had fought the Great Wolf in.
But unlike that space, this one was filled with many different things.
This room…seemed like the throne room of a king and at the very other side of this room was a throne where a lizardman was sitting.
This lizardman had a crown on his head and was much bigger than all of the other lizardmen that we had met.
It was clear that this was the king of the lizardmen.
But it wasn\'t just the king alone who was here.
There were a bunch of other lizardmen who were also gathered around the king, each one wearing a heavy set of armour while also holding a shield and some kind of other weapon.
These were the elite guards that protected the king.
When I saw this, I deeply knitted my brows.
That was because even without the Lizardman King, I could tell that not a single one of these guards were easy to take down. Just their armour alone would be hard to cut through.
The young man with the shield also stopped a bit when he walked into this room, but then he took that shield off his back and said with a smile, "We\'re going in."
The other two of his group had worried looks on their faces, but they still followed him in.
The shield of the young man suddenly expanded as he charged forward.
It became a giant shield that was like a bulldozer as he charged at the lizardmen.
The lizardmen were caught off guard by the sudden appearance of this young man with the shield, but they quickly took formation in front of the Lizardman King.
These lizardmen guards quickly raised their shields to block the young man.
When the two sides clashed, the young man couldn\'t help revealing a surprised look.
That was because they had actually stopped his charge.
Whenever he had used this ability before in this dungeon, he had never been stopped before. So now that he had been stopped, he couldn\'t help being taken off guard.
That only lasted a moment before he suddenly turned and shouted, "What are you idiots waiting for? Can\'t you see that I\'m distracting them! Attack already!"
The two others looked at each other before following the young man\'s order.
The young man with the pompadour charged forward with the young man with the shield while the magical girl raised her staff.
She was gathering her power, but she didn\'t release it yet as if she was waiting for something.
When the young man with the pompadour finally reached the young man with the shield, that was when she fired off her attack.
The young man with the shield shrank his shield when the young man with the pompadour reached him, revealing the lizardmen in front of him.
This opened him to attacks, but he wasn\'t worried at all.
The lizardmen were surprised to find that the shield had disappeared and raised their own weapons to attack, but then they sensed that something was coming from in front of them. So they stopped lowering their shields and formed that wall once more.
However, the magical girl\'s attack was already on its wall.
This was an attack that suddenly turned into liquid while flying in the air and splashed onto the shields of the lizardmen.
When it splashed on the shields…there was smoke that came from the shields.
This was an acid attack that was melting those shields.
The two lizardmen that got splashed by the acid had no choice but to drop their shields and that created a gap for the young man with the pompadour.
But even though they had dropped their shields, they were still wearing thick armour, so it wasn\'t as if they were completely unguarded.
In the end, that didn\'t matter for the young man with the pompadour.
With a single punch, he blew a hole in the armoured lizardman, armour and all.
Then he gave another punch to take down the other lizardman.
These two lizardmen were easily taken down with just two punches…it was clear how powerful those punches were.
After taking down these two lizardmen, they immediately jumped back to create distance between them and the lizardmen.
Then when they stabilized themselves, the young man with the shield revealed an arrogant smile as he said, "Hah, just one punch is enough? This is going to be easy."
But the looks on the faces of the magical girl and the young man with the pompadour made it clear that they thought otherwise.
They were looking in the direction of the Lizardman King.
As soon as his voice fell, the Lizardman King suddenly stood up from his throne.
