Chapter 664 The selection is over and the rankings are announced!
When Tanjiro woke up again, it was already noon the next day, and today was already the last day of the "final selection".
After killing the demon, Kanahu did not choose to leave. Instead, she sat aside and waited for Tanjiro to wake up.
Although she seems to lack emotion now, her companions still understand her concept.
Previously, Tanjiro risked his life to save her. If he walked away while the other party was unconscious, what would happen if the unconscious Tanjiro was attacked by other cannibals?
So during the period when Tanjiro was in coma, Kanahu was beside him in a bored daze... or to be more precise, she was protecting Tanjiro.
Tanjiro woke up and felt the pain all over his body. When he saw Kanahu beside him, he already knew that the Baihua ghost had also been killed.
And just when he was about to ask about the details of the matter, two figures suddenly appeared in front of them and informed them that the "final selection" had ended.
"Mr. Ye Cheng, long time no see..."
There was no doubt that the two figures that suddenly appeared in front of them were Ye Cheng and Xing Jurou.
Tanjiro might not know Anjuro, but Tanjiro recognized Yashiro at a glance, and hurriedly wanted to get up to say hello, but he soon felt pain because many bones in his body were broken.
"For the sake of getting to know each other, I'll give you free treatment.
Saonian, we have all seen your previous performance. I have to say, even I didn’t expect that the former charcoal-selling boy could actually grow so much in two years. "
Yashiro used the "return path" to quickly treat Tanjiro's injuries to the point where he could move freely.
The latter originally wanted to ask something, but was told that all those who passed the selection must gather at the foot of the mountain again before sunset.
I had survived the high-intensity ghost-slaying routine for seven consecutive days, so the final test was naturally nothing.
Except for the three people who were unable to persist for seven days at the beginning, the remaining five people all persisted for seven days in Tengxi Mountain and passed the "final selection" perfectly.
When announcing the results, Ye Cheng also explained the true purpose of this "final selection".
The three people who were eliminated first were eighth, seventh and sixth respectively. Although they passed the selection, they could only be tentatively classified as Gui.
The three of them had no objections to this result. After all, it was quite lucky for them to pass the selection.
After announcing the results of the last three, Ye Cheng turned his attention to Tanjiro and the other five, and slowly said: "As for you...
Since you not only passed the selection, but also passed it in the most difficult way, it is enough to prove that your strength and performance are no weaker than ordinary members of the Demon Slayer Corps.
According to past practice, new members who have just joined the team usually start from the 'Gui' level.
But this time due to your outstanding performance, we will make an exception and allow you to become a member of the ‘Xin’ class, and you can choose the materials for forging the Nichirin sword on your own.”
After hearing what Ye Cheng said, the three people who were eliminated first looked at Tanjiro and the other five with expressions full of envy.
Not to mention choosing the forging materials for the Nichirin Sword by yourself, just starting with the "Xin level" class is extremely enviable.
Compared with "Gui", they are one "Ren" level higher than themselves. Everyone participated in the selection together, but the other party seemed to be their superior.
Of course, the three eliminated people were just envious of this and did not feel jealous because of it.
After all, they have already experienced firsthand how difficult it is to stay in the Tengxi Mountain for seven days.
"First of all, the first place in this final selection, Lihua Rakanahu.
Second place, Kamado Tanjiro. The third place is Kubihira Inosuke.
The fourth place is Xuanya Immortal Kawakawa.
The fifth place is my wife Shanyi. "
Regarding the ranking results announced by Night City, several people present had different expressions.
Chanel's face remained expressionless, looking at the eagle crow she had just received, as if she didn't care whether she was the first or not.
Tanjiro was a little surprised that he was ranked second, but with Kana's strength, Tanjiro was not surprised that he was ranked first.
My wife, Zenitsu, still looks timid. Although he is at the bottom, he doesn't care at all. He even doesn't know how he passed the selection inexplicably.
Of course, there are people who accept the results, and there are also people who are dissatisfied with the results.
For example, Inosuke Kihira, who wears a pig-man hood, and Genya Immortal Kawakawa, who was arrogant before.
Inosuke didn't mention it for the moment, but his beast-like intuition made him vaguely feel that Yashiro and Anjuro were not easy to mess with, so he didn't speak at the moment.
But he had already turned to look at Kanahu and Tanjiro on the side, planning to go and discuss with them later to see why these two people were ahead of him.
Because of Inosuke's beast-like intuition, he rarely chose to be content, but Genya Kawa refused to do so until he died.
Everyone has stayed in Tengxi Mountain for seven days, so why are their rankings higher than Huang Mao over there!
"I have doubts about this ranking. What are you basing the ranking on? Why do you rank me fourth!"
Seeing Immortal Kawa Genya shouting with a dissatisfied look on his face, Anjuro immediately frowned, thinking to himself that this guy must have a bad brain.
But when he thought about the relationship between the other party and Feng Zhu, he was worried that he would anger Ye Cheng, so he immediately stepped forward and said: "The ranking is a comprehensive evaluation of your strength, performance and character by us through secret observation.
Could it be that you have doubts about Zhu's judgment?
Kid, don’t be too self-righteous. The Demon Slayer Corps is a highly disciplined organization. Don’t say that you have just joined the team. Even if you are a Class A member, you are not qualified to question Tingzhu’s judgment. "
Hearing Anjuro's words, Fusukawa Genya showed a look of reluctance. The opponent was Tingzhu. He had no right to be arrogant, but he still didn't feel that he would lose to others.
"You seem to think you are the best? Then let me tell you why."
Ye Cheng's figure slowly walked past Xingjulang, and his body gradually exuded astonishing coercion and terrifying murderous intent.
Seeing this scene, Xingjulang directly covered his face with his hands. Fengzhu, the younger brother, felt like he had a hole in his head.
Well now, congratulations to these newcomers for directly receiving a gift package of murderous intent baptism.
Terrifying murderous intent emanated from Ye Cheng, and Tanjiro and the others couldn't help but feel their hearts trembling whenever they got close to everyone.
Not even knowing when, Tanjiro realized that his palm had grasped the handle of the long knife at his waist.
"This guy is a monster, a real monster!"
Inosuke Kubihira's intuition was very strong. At this moment, he felt that Night City was extremely dangerous, and his sense of danger kept reminding him to leave the other party's side.
