Sword God in a World of Magic

Shang left the third challenge and walked to the next room, which was where the rewards were stored.

He entered a rather sizable hall with five rows of floating items.

Most of the items were in the first row and the least in the fifth.

Shang could see all the items in the first four rows, but the single item in the fifth row was obscured by a barrier.

In front of the first row of items was a stele that explained everything.

"Congratulations on passing the trial!"

"Your performance has been judged to be Four Stars. You may choose one item amongst the first four rows."

'Four Stars?' Shang thought.

A little bit lower, Shang could see how the trial judged performances.

One Star: Get to the end.

Two Stars: Get to the end and fulfill the criterium for success for one of the first two challenges.

Three Stars: Get to the end and fulfill the criteria for success for both of the first two challenges.

Four Stars: Get to the end and achieve minor success on the first two challenges.

Five Stars: Get to the end and achieve major success on the first two challenges.

That answered some of the questions Shang had.

'It seems like the first two challenges were actually optional, and I only needed to get through the third one to get a reward.'

'I presume that knowing the level three Concepts for ice and fire would get someone a three-star evaluation. To get a four-star one, someone probably needs to push it even further.'

'The five-star one probably needs the level four Concepts for both of them.'
