@deltarayedge Indeed. The correct response to a seven year old boy who can hold up, even barely, against a trained adult is " That's amazing. You pass. "

@IMACOP tbf it's kinda hard to stop the test when you're barraged by attacks
sure, he missed the chance to declare the test completion when he see mc powering up his arms, but for all we know, that one moment where the examiner frozen by amazement might be all the time it needs for mc to finish the enchantment and attack
and the examiner didn't miss the next chance he got to declare the test completion
@deltarayedge seems like it's his generic battle cry when he's cornered tbh
a handful of other mc also say the same thing to monster that can't even understand words

@mage_goo The MC already held his own against the examiner even before he used his skill. That's already a pass, but the examiner continued with the insults and when MC used his skills, which is obviously not normal (even the examiner himself is shocked), instead of ending the test, he further pushed the MC into a confrontation. He only ended the test after the place was trashed and he got beaten up, and MC went into super apology mode and stopped. He had plenty of chances to end the test before all this. Again, mind you, he's testing a kid, trying to enter a bloody school.

I know it is just a test, but as a teacher myself I have to say that I absolutely hate this approach to testing. It might make some sense to use this method, such as inspiring students to get stronger or letting them know their own weaknesses. But I feel like this method may make or break the students. It is alright for our MC because he is strong (and he is not really a kid inside). But for weaker kids, instead of inspiring them I am afraid the test is going to traumatize them. The goal of the school is to learn. Sure, the kids should at least have some basic skills before applying (like before you go to primary school you should at least know your alphabet), but they ultimately come to school to learn more, so they are likely not going to be super skilled or something.
Perhaps I am just too soft. I do like skilled kids, as they sometimes make teaching easier (only sometimes because some skilled kids thinks they are too good to listen), but I absolutely love determined kids regardless of their level. It makes teaching worthwhile.
Well, I guess this is one way to make sure that your elite school will only have elite kids coming in.
TL; DR version: Insulting kids for testing is never a good testing method.

@IMACOP eh, before using his skill, mc just got beaten up real bad
really doesn't look like the examiner gonna pass him at that point, so letting him use his skill is like, giving him another chance to prove himself
and he stopped the test before mc even apologized tho
heck, mc is still eager to go at that point, but he took the l somewhat and stopped the test

...Ahhh the disappointment... I knew he wouldn't kill him but to even bow and apologize without forcing him to kowtow and apologize for his mother... truly disgusting.

If you get offended that easily i don't recommend you look up what they do in the military.
This is just a perfect example of the teacher trying to insult you at every opportunity to check if you can keep your cool.
You clearly would not pass that test.
@illusion_moon
This is supposedly a school for the best of the best as its intended to be a school for royal retainers.
Its basically a school for people who are going to work in the military( at least the part he is joining ) and this practise is pretty common there.
Here the idea behind the insults is to check if you can keep a leveld head and while yes its possible that some might not get positive reinforcement out of it.
It doubles as a test to see if they have the base level of skill and mentality they are looking for as this is not just a regular school so they dont waste their time on inferior students.
It does have other benefits to it as well, but i'm not going to go into a full rant on it, check it up if you are curious.
Is it an optimal system ? probably not, but it is effective witch is why its still in use today.

@Goldenzeal It's about satisfying the reader, this is fantasy themed fiction and he is the crown prince, killing him for insulting royalty is nothing much.
This has nothing to do with me, it's simply about entertainment.
This chapter could be a very fun one, but it wasn't simply because of the most boring and commenly used approach in japanese manga. (Hetare mc)
And is that what you pull yourself up with? That you passed the test? You let yourself insult and could endure it? Congrats! You're super amazing you did something millions if not a billion of people did before you! You must be very proud of this heroic deed. Oh? You wasn't in military but was bullied in school and think you would pass this test? Awww wanted to proliferate your ego on something you never did in real life huh? Is that fun? How about working out and taking revenge on all those that bullied you? Because that would be entertaining.

@mage_goo No, MC was beaten up bad, but they already showed you the difference - other kids beaten to the point they were on the ground, while MC continued. Also, right before that, MC already held his own and won against a knight/soldier while he's still back at the royal palace, without his skill. In other words, you're saying the examiner was going to fail a kid with that level of skill. If so, how's the academy even getting any students at all? Yeah, he stopped it before MC apologized, so? He stopped it after the place got trashed and he got beaten up, probably then after getting himself smacked around calmed him down enough to think about ending the dumb test.
