Why had the flames in the minds of these Undead Knights started to change?
"These Undead Knights have some kind of power related to Undying," Ewart spoke up.
"Undying?" Everyone else was surprised.
"Their Undying ability should allow them to withstand a lethal attack while having a protective shield, which means the flame represents the protective shield. Once the damage exceeds the limit of the shield, the undying ability is activated to resist the damage, but this ability should have a cooldown."
"No wonder-!" A scientist clapped his palm and suddenly realized: "We just had two rounds of Artillery fire. In the first round, the undying power of these Undead Knights was passively activated, but not in the second round, so only energy shields can be depleted."
"There's one more thing," Ewart added. "It's not just the flames; these Undead Knights should also be able to transfer their ability to each other. That is why, if we hadn't just covered them with our full firepower, they could have used this to never take casualties."
"So that's how it is." The crowd was in a trance.
This ability was too unbelievable. If it weren't for Ewart, I'm afraid it would have taken a lot of effort to figure this out.
Sebastian, who watched all this, was not worried. The Artillery fire of the Astra Militarum was powerful, so even without knowing the Undead Knights's abilities, under the barrage attack, the Undead Knights could still be wiped out.
Of course, the Astra Militarum couldn't eliminate all of them. In every battle, there was always an effort to capture some alive for research, this time was no exception. Soon, under the heavy Artillery barrage, the Undead Knights' shields and abilities were all consumed.
BOOOM-!
A shell fell and blew an Undead Knights to pieces and the Undead Horses beneath them didn't fare much better, also meeting their end. Before long, most were wiped out, and the Astra Militarum began to move in. They surrounded the remaining Undead Knights to capture them alive, but it took some time to do so.
After all the Undead Knights were eliminated, Sebastian looked at the leaderboard ahead and there were already two results listed. Undead knights were a nightmare for most of the candidates, but for the top geniuses, they were not a problem. They simply crushed them with strength, not bothering with strategies.

BOOOM-!
With a loud noise, under the fifth round of bombardment by the Mage's Legion, the Undead Knights began to suffer casualties.
"This sister of mine..." Seeing this, Edward couldn't help but shake his head.
Lucy also hadn't discovered the Undead Knights's secret and the ability to transfer it, she simply used her powerful magic to bombard the Undead Knights into destruction. Most of the other geniuses did the same this strategy even earned the approval of some of the top masters.
"This is the best way. The exam is about competition; so there's no time to analyze everything. You just have to get through it by any means necessary." A person said.
However, not all geniuses succeeded. Some of the top-ranked students lost to the Undead Knights due to their abilities, so they lost their chance to keep competing.
[ ===== ]
"Sister-!"
Lina, who had once fooled Sebastian, looked at her sister's planet and felt her heartache. Her sister, Kita, was the second top genius in her City. The civilization she created, the Giant Bear, had great potential, but they were countered by the Undead Knights's abilities. On her planet, the fierce battle continued. Watching her sister's units fall before the Undead Knights, she knew that her sister's journey was over.
Shortly after, Kita dejectedly opted out. She had expected to make it to at least the third wave, but instead, she didn't even pass the second wave.
"If only I had gotten that 10x Multiplier Card back then, she could have beaten the second wave of the Supernatural Invasion." A trace of regret and unwillingness flashed in her eyes.
[ ===== ]
"Please take a ten-minute break and prepare for the start of the next round." The ghostly prompt sounded, and the second wave was over.
Many candidates breathed a long sigh of relief, this wave had been incredibly difficult. Few were able to identify the Undead Knights' weakness, as most had to brute force their way through. In the examination area, many candidates were eliminated early, this wave saw even more casualties than expected, including some from the Genius List.
"I lost..." Ana's eyes were dull as she looked around numbly. Her goal had been to attend a top-ranked academy, but now, she would have to settle for one of the worst.
"Sure enough, I still wasn't strong enough." Sebastian's classmate, Okabe, sighed helplessly, but since he had anticipated his performance, he wasn't too upset.
"Let's see how Sebastian did." Okabe looked up.
Many of the candidates who had been eliminated also looked toward the leaderboard in the sky.
"I don't think I'm ranked very well right now," Sebastian said, glancing at the ranking with interest.
In the next moment, his eyes slightly widened.
