Chapter 4: Practical assessment, Xingyao Level 2
The next day, early morning.
Chen Yue, led by Wu Tong, came to Yangzhou City Extreme Club Hall.
More than thirty would-be warriors rushed to the train station to take the train.
In the closed train carriage, Chen Yue sat quietly alone.
"Dear quasi-warriors, I am from the HR Alliance..."
On the big screen in the carriage, a middle-aged man's speech was broadcast live.
Next, representatives of the three parties including the Extreme Martial Arts School, the Thunderbolt Martial Arts School, and the Chinese government and military began to promote the event through the big screen.
The surrounding quasi-warriors suddenly started talking about various forces.
Chen Yue was lost in thought.
He is undoubtedly going to enter the extreme martial arts gym.
Today on earth, the most effective way to increase the progress of cultivation is wood crystal and the spirit of plants and trees spawned from wood crystal powder.
However, Chen Yue did not awaken his spiritual power.
Want to get Babata's attention.
Difficult!
So, he set his sights on Dragon Blood.
Dragon blood, only Hong can supply it stably.
He will show off his talents today and become a blockbuster!
Let the top management of Extreme Martial Arts Hall take you seriously.
A moment——
"We're here!" An unknown quasi-warrior next to him shouted.
Chen Yue then discovered that the train had begun to slow down and stopped after a while.
“Wow!”
The carriage door opened, and the would-be warriors in each carriage rushed out excitedly.
Chen Yue followed the team from behind, his pace was calm and slow.
At the moment when they were about to part, Wu Tong gave him a comforting look and said: "Don't be nervous. Just play to your usual level!"
"I know, Wu Uncle!" Chen Yue responded with a positive nod.
————————
That afternoon.
After a short rest, 1,600 would-be warriors gathered in an open square to receive weapons and combat uniforms.
Not far from the square, in a quiet two-story building.
In the hall.
"Wu Tong, that boy is the orphan you brought back, what is his name?"
A middle-aged man with a feminine face wearing a dark black combat uniform, pouting. Taking a sip of tea, he looked at the slightly lonely figure in the square.
"Yes, supervisor. His name is Chen Yue. He took part in the quasi-martial arts assessment two months ago. His fist strength is 1008kg and his speed is 36.8 meters/second." Wu Tong said respectfully beside him.
"Oh? Such a result in the first test, not bad!" The middle-aged man is officially one of the four giants of the extreme martial arts gym in Jiangnan Base City, Zhuge Tao.
"How much did his fist power increase after he first practiced genetic energy?" Zhuge Tao asked.
The qualifications of a warrior can be judged from the increase in genetic original fist strength after practicing for the first time.
This is already recognized.
"This... I was negligent." Wu Tong smiled bitterly.
In fact, Wu Tong would bring food to Chen Yue every day, he had vaguely guessed it.
After Chen Yue practiced genetic energy for the first time, his punching power would not increase much.
Today, Wu Tong wanted to praise Chen Yue in front of Zhuge Tao.
Even if you can't get preferential treatment like Luo Feng, you can still get some attention.
He was worried that with Chen Yue's character, once he became a warrior in the future, he would suffer a lot during field training.
Now that Zhuge Tao asked this question, he could only pretend to be confused.
"It doesn't matter, let's see how he behaves for a while!" Zhuge Tao said calmly.
He just asked casually out of habit.
After all, not everyone can have Luo Feng’s qualifications.
Wu Tong thought in his heart: "Boy Chen Yue, it depends on your own destiny."
————————
At six-thirty that night, at the entrance of the monster town next to the camp.
"The actual combat assessment of warriors starts now and ends at 6:30 tomorrow morning!"
"Points are calculated based on the number of monsters killed and left ears cut off!"
"Among the 1,600 of you, only the top 960 will pass the assessment in the end, and the next 40% will all fail!"
"Based on past experience, you can pass the assessment by hunting three monsters."
An officer stood on the roof of a small dilapidated building inside the town, looking solemn.
"Start! All quasi-warriors, enter the monster town!"
While the surrounding quasi-warriors lamented that the pass rate was too low, Chen Yue had already taken the lead in entering the gate of the town.
The officer glanced sideways at Chen Yue and nodded secretly.
"Everyone is here! Enter the town quickly!"
The would-be warriors suddenly realized and entered the town one after another, and then the gate was closed.
————————
In Monster Town. The winter sky turns dark very early.
As night fell, more than a thousand would-be warriors were like mud and rocks falling into the sea, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Chen Yue was walking down the long street with a sword slung across his back.
"Sand~Sand~"
Combat boots stepped on the road, adding a touch of vitality to the quiet night.
“Hmph——”
Next to the street, there was a roar like a domestic pig.
A pig-like monster, about one meter in size, with hair like spikes all over its body, was staring at Chen Yue with its mouth wide open, and a frightening cold light emitted from its eyes.
H-class monster, iron-haired wild boar.
"Whoosh!"
Chen Yue instantly increased his speed while holding the handle of the knife behind his back with his right hand.
Poof!
In the middle of the street, a silver-white train suddenly lit up.
The light of the knife intertwined with the sound of flesh and blood being cut.
Boom——
The huge body of the iron-haired wild boar crashed down like a car.
Another sword light lit up, and a pig's ear suddenly appeared in Chen Yue's hand.
He put it into his backpack, sheathed his sword, and continued to move forward.
————————
Beside an abandoned truck, the chests of two would-be warriors were rising and falling violently.
“Look! Someone is coming!” said one of the young men with a scar on his face.
"Huh? Is this guy a fool? He's alone in the middle of the street without a shield?" Another lean young man's eyes widened with disbelief on his face.
“Follow him!” The scarred young man was heartbroken.
"Are you crazy? Fighting each other is strictly prohibited in the actual combat assessment!" the lean young man shouted loudly.
"Don't worry! I'm sensible. I only said that fighting is not allowed, but I didn't say that you can't ignore death..." The scarred young man curled his lips.
The lean young man hesitated for a moment and followed.
In the middle of the street.
"How weak!" Chen Yue sighed secretly in his heart.
He remembered that in the original work, Luo Feng suppressed his strength and honed his sword and body skills during the quasi-martial arts assessment.
At this time, Chen Yue couldn't help but wonder.
That’s it?
How to practice?
It’s gone with one knife.
"Ouch——"
"Meow——"
On the roof of a three-story building, several figures suddenly appeared.
Looking around, there are eight shadow cats.
As an H-class monster, Shadow Cat is equivalent to a junior warrior.
Exceptionally fast, good at concealing his aura, and has an alert personality, making him extremely difficult to deal with for would-be warriors.
"Holy shit! Why are there so many shadow cats?" The lean young man following behind Chen Yue looked surprised.
Of course he didn't know that as Chen Yue walked along, the left ear of a monster he was holding tightly in his hand was bleeding along the way.
Shadow cats are born with a keen sense of smell and are naturally attracted to this bloody smell.
Whoosh!
The eight shadow cats, as if they had discussed it in advance, jumped down from the upstairs at the same time.
Flying towards Chen Yue——
They opened their sharp front claws and were bound to tear the prey in front of them into pieces.
"Be careful!"
The situation was critical, and the lean young man turned pale with fright, and shouted a warning to Chen Yue.
Ignoring the dissuasion of the scarred young man beside him, he rushed out and prepared to fight side by side with Chen Yue.
However——
The sword is unsheathed!
Xingyao Double Level!
Poof! puff! puff! puff! puff! puff! puff! puff!
Chen Yue stood there without moving.
The sword in his hand turned into stars, and the light and shadow lit up the long street.
As Chen Yue retracted his sword, the middle of the street suddenly became quiet.
Chen Yue looked at the lean young man and said, "Thank you!" Then he turned and left.
It was only then that the lean young man recovered from his shock.
He looked towards the location of Shadow Cat——
There were already eight corpses!
The left ears of two corpses had been cut off at the root.
The other six corpses had their left ears intact!
The lean young man suddenly realized that he turned around and wanted to thank Chen Yue.
Only found that the figure of the other party had already disappeared into the darkness...
