The task written on the assessment parchment was that multiple Lizardman tribes existed here, and the one they just encountered was just one of them.
Duke and the others planned to search for another Lizardman tribe, then kill two more Lizardmen in the same way. As long as they completed the task, that would be enough.
The only concern was that if they had alerted one Lizardman tribe, other Lizardman tribes might also encounter other wizard apprentices.
About one hundred fifty people were participating in this assessment, and these wizard apprentices were bound to have conflicts with multiple Lizardman tribes.
Duke and the others were just lucky; the Lizardman tribe they encountered earlier hadn't met other wizard apprentices, so they were unguarded.
If they encountered a guarded Lizardman tribe, the situation would be different.
After a short rest, Duke and the others continued on their journey. The oasis was still not far away, so it wasn't entirely safe yet.
