Unrivaled Medicine God, page 670
But comparing Xie Jingyi to Jia Chong, the disparity was indeed not small.
This first round, he, Ye Yuan, was just a special case.
Under normal circumstances, the longer one persisted, the greater the potential, the more powerful the strength!
Ye Yuan patted Xie Jingyi’s shoulder and said with a smile, “Buck up then. Your potential might not be less than his! From the sixth day to the 30th day, did you dare to imagine it previously? Therefore, there’s no impossibility. Just depends on whether you dare to do it or not! But, if you’re eliminated, you can only fade into the crowd, the disparity with Jia Chong getting bigger and bigger! In that case, your Ah Xiu will probably get further and further away from you.”
Xie Jingyi’s entire body trembled, seemingly suffering some tremendous stimulation. Grimacing, he said, “Good brother, let’s buck up together for the two rounds at the back, and strive to both enter the Wu Meng Academy! We’re going to let those who look down on us trash see that rookies can counterattack too!”
Ye Yuan chuckled when he heard that. This guy’s joker problem indeed could not be fixed.
Finally, the first round, Qin Shao ranked first with the result of 53 days, obtaining 115 points. Su Yuecang took second place with 51 days, obtaining 105 points. Jia Chong ranked third, obtaining 100 points with the result of 50 days.
…
On the platform, an old man opened his mouth nonchalantly and said, “You all being able to pass the first round, it’s sufficient to prove your excellence and also enough to prove the resolution of your Martial Dao heart! However, Wu Meng Academy only recruits the most outstanding students! The first round is merely a warm-up. What’s harder is the second round and third round!”
The old man swept a glance over everyone and slowly said, “Right away, begin the second round, Earth Carnage!”
The moment the old man’s voice faded, this enormous plaza’s scene suddenly changed.
Originally, the million lotus seats disappeared, leaving only several thousand lotus seats.
Seeing this scene, everyone could not help clicking their tongues in wonder.
“Now, you all choose a lotus seat to seat at will! The second round, Earth Carnage, is all the same for each of you! The array formation activating, you all will enter a consciousness space! At that time, all of your strength will automatically be compensated to become grand completion Grotto Profound. You guys will be facing the assault of 50 waves of divine beasts! These divine beasts will be stronger wave after wave. Being able to make it through 20 waves is considered passing the test. Before 20 waves, if you die inside the consciousness space, you all will be transported right out, failing the test! Every additional round you survive, your points will increase by 10!” said the old man in a clear voice.
Hearing these words, everyone did not reveal much surprise.
Clearly, everyone was clear about the contents of the test.
Rather, for Ye Yuan, it was still his first time hearing the specific contents of this second round. For a moment, he felt that it was rather novel.
Automatically compensating for cultivation realm, this appeared very fair.
But very clearly, this level was not easy to pass.
What this level tested was a martial artist’s true combat power, without a trace of deception.
“Come on, I don’t wish to see you being transported out when I come out!” Ye Yuan said to Xie Jingyi with a smile.
“Pooh! You’re the one who will be transported out! I’m the man who’s going to marry Ah Xiu, how can I possibly lose?” Xie Jingyi retorted.
As soon as he was seated, Ye Yuan felt like his consciousness was being taken away from something.
When he appeared again, it was already inside an empty space.
This was a consciousness space. There was nothing at all.
Ye Yuan discovered that his realm really became grand completion Grotto Profound!
“Mm? This … ”
Ye Yuan revolved his divine essence a bit and discovered to his dismay that his divine essence consumption speed was different from his actual situation!
“Looks like there’s no way to cheat,” Ye Yuan said with a bitter smile.
Considering Ye Yuan’s true realm, his divine essence was incomparably condensed.
Unleashing large-scale martial techniques, the divine essence consumption would also not be very great.
Under the impact of this wave after wave, the thickness of divine essence was very useful.
But unfortunately, he was just a wisp of consciousness right now. This body was configured by the grand array and not himself. He was unable to alter it too.
“Fortunately, the Voice of the Dragon God can still be used. But it can only be used at a crucial time.”
The Voice of the Dragon God was released with the power of the fleshy body, although this body was not as good as Ye Yuan’s fleshy body, it could still unleash the Voice of the Dragon God.
Except, he sensed it a bit that the Voice of the Dragon God could only unleash for around 10 breaths of time.
This was his final trump card and could not be used easily.
“Now, please choose your weapon!” At this time, an ethereal voice sounded out.
Ye Yuan said, “I choose the sword!”
A light flashed. Ye Yuan’s hands had a sword appear out of the blue. It was actually a spirit divine artifact!
“Looks like this test is very fair! Everyone’s starting point is identical! It will depend on the individual’s Martial Dao comprehensions and willpower!” Ye Yuan said to himself.
At this time, that ethereal voice sounded out once more, “The hour has arrived; Earth Carnage test begins!”
Following this voice landing, Ye Yuan discovered to his amazement that there were countless wild beasts ahead, rushing over towards him with an irresistible momentum.
These wild beasts virtually filled the entire space. There wasn’t even a place to escape at all!
These wild beasts were just the lowest-level initial-stage rank 1 divine beasts. It was just that the numbers were too terrifying.
“Heh, the first level was willpower assault. This second level is wild beast assault. Interesting!”
Ye Yuan’s expression turned stern, wielding the sword and pressed forward, directly charging into the beast horde!
The violent beast horde practically engulfed Ye Yuan right away.
Ye Yuan’s sword dance was airtight, shuttling back and forth inside the beast horde, continuously reaping the lives of wild beasts.
Chapter 1368. No Longer Sensational |
“Ouch! You beast dare to headbutt me, I’ll headbutt you!”
While talking, Little Fatty’s figure dashed and really headbutted over.
That divine beast was directly knocked flying by Little Fatty, immediately knocking down a large swarm.
When Xie Jingyi saw this, he could not help laughing delightedly and said, “Haha, who asked you to provoke your Grandpa Xie! Now, you know my prowess! Goodness, here again!”
Honestly, if Ye Yuan was here, he would probably get a huge shock too.
Although this Little Fatty did not have many powerful martial techniques, his movement technique was first-rate.
Shutting back and forth inside the beast horde, those divine beasts actually could not catch him.
Just now, he got accidentally bumped by a divine beast, he immediately retaliated.
This was already the ninth wave. The level of the divine beasts had long been raised to middle-stage One-star already.
One shouldn’t look at how the ranks of the divine beasts were not high. The numbers were very alarming, totally unable to kill completely.
Especially after a few waves, after the realms of the divine beasts increased to middle-stage One-star, the martial artists’ pressure would suddenly soar.
However, Little Fatty relied on the advantage of movement technique and still had plenty more room to maneuver until now.
“Heh heh, Ye Yuan that punk definitely can’t imagine that I, Xie Jingyi, would be so relaxed this round, right?” Little Fatty said as he laughed smugly.
…
“This position of top dog, I’m claiming it! This round, I must break the records and shake them off far behind!” Qin Shao said and gritted his teeth.
Qin Shao was the Qin Family’s this generation’s top talent. He was Qin Peiyu’s cousin, but he was only the son of a concubine. His status in the Qin Family was not high.
The Qin Family brimmed with talents. He relied on his talent to charge out of the heavy encirclement and became the Qin Family’s this generation’s number one genius.
In the Qin Family, this kind of large family clan, the competition among the younger generation was very brutal.
Even right now, he and Su Yuecang three people were simultaneously called Wu Meng Four Young Masters, but even so, his status in the Qin Family was far inferior to the others.
Because above him, in the Wu Meng Academy, there were still several formidable foes.
The Wu Meng Four Young Masters were merely squabbles in front of family clans.
Therefore, he wanted to astound the world in a single brilliant feat in the entrance examination this time, and overpower the other geniuses, becoming the top dog.
That way, he could truly enter the Qin Family’s nucleus.
It was only to see Qin Shao’s sword moving boldly and unconstrained, akin to a no-man zone in the beast horde, his strength overwhelming!
That youth called Ye Yuan can’t be underestimated. Even if I really get top dog, I absolutely can’t lower my guard too! Although his current strength isn’t strong, once he enters the Wu Meng Academy, he might very likely catch up and surpass his seniors! Qin Shao thought to himself.
Ye Yuan’s performance in the first round made him feel tremendous pressure.
Su Yuecang and the rest were indeed his competitors. But those people’s potentials, he more or less knew a little.
But Ye Yuan’s first round’s performance was too astonishing, exhibiting limitless potential.
If Ye Yuan could successfully pass through the three levels, he might become a formidable opponent in the future.
One had to know that Wu Meng Academy was not just a stay of one or two years. Within a thousand years in the future, they had to all study here!
Such a long time, no one would know what kind of variable would happen too.
…
Ye Yuan discovered that he could still cheat!
Maybe this could not be called cheating, but it was his specialty as an alchemist.
Facing these divine beasts with grand completion Grotto Profound Realm, he did not need to expend much divine essence.
With his exquisite control over divine essence, his survivability greatly increased compared to other martial artists.
This round, what they competed in was not how many enemies killed.
But … survival!
The tidewater-like divine beasts, even if the realm was any lower, it was a considerable pressure to same realm martial artists too.
To be able to charge out from the first round, they could be said to all be geniuses among geniuses.
Their strengths were a notch above others to begin with.
If it were ordinary martial artists, being able to survive three or four waves was already considered very impressive.
Ye Yuan’s exquisite control over divine essence could let him slay even more divine beasts with the least divine essence.
Ye Yuan’s combat experience was very rich, far from what others could compare to.
Walking all the way from the Immortal Grove World, the battles that he had seen before, other geniuses had not seen before at all.
This degree of slaughtering was nothing to him.
Of course, Ye Yuan’s greatest drawback was his martial technique.
Although the Vast Heaven Sword Art was pretty good, compared to Qin Shao, those geniuses who walked out of large families, it had inherent deficiencies.
This point, Ye Yuan experienced it very soon in battle.
At the 20th wave, all of the divine beasts’ strength went up another stage, all becoming late-stage One-star!
Immediately, Ye Yuan felt the pressure on him soar sharply. Divine essence consumption speed also accelerated significantly.
This 20th wave is indeed extraordinary. There are probably quite a number of people that will fall at this level, right? Ye Yuan estimated it over in his mind.
In reality, only 30% was able to hang on until the 20th wave, just less than 2000 people!
Not every person could save divine essence like Ye Yuan, expending until now.
Even so, such a high intensity consumption, his divine essence was running low too.
“Starting now, there will be array formation cooperation among divine beasts! Each round passed will add 10 points!”
The moment the 20th wave passed, that ethereal voice sounded out once more.
Then, a large wave of divine beasts struck!
It was just that this time, they no longer rampaged around wildly like before.
Among each other, there was some order.
Seeing this, Ye Yuan felt his head hurt, and he said with a bitter smile, “Looks like Earth Carnage this round can’t earn much points!”
Ye Yuan used all his power and even used the Voice of the Dragon God in the end, finally stopping at the 23rd wave regretfully.
Under the cooperation of several dozen divine beasts, Ye Yuan was trampled into minced meat in the end.
His consciousness abruptly withdrew, returning into his body.
“Ye Yuan, cleared 23 rounds, obtaining 30 points. Total points, 120!” announced the old man on the platform directly.
When everyone saw this scene, they all heaved a long sigh in relief.
“Scared me to death! I even thought that this guy will defy the heavens all the way!”
“Looking at it now, it’s also just that his Martial Dao willpower is a little firmer. His true strength is still far off!”
“Mm, this round’s performance not being good shows that his overall strength can’t make it.”
“What the entrance examination tests focus on are overall strength. Adding together the results of the three rounds is the final benchmark to judge a person’s potential.”
…
As the sole middle-stage Grotto Profound among the people left, Ye Yuan’s every action and movement naturally attracted much attention.
But very clearly, his dazzling light did not last.
Ye Yuan’s performance this round was not astonishing. It could even be said to be at the bottom. This made Ye Yuan much less of a topic of conversation. These people naturally lost interested in him too.
Hence, everyone’s focal point was placed on the top dog this time.
Very soon, Xie Jingyi’s consciousness also returned to his body.
Seeing the old man announce Little Fatty’s results, Ye Yuan was extremely shocked too.
This guy actually made it to the 25th wave, obtaining 50 points!
When he came to the waiting area and saw Ye Yuan, he said smugly, “Haha, this time, this bro beat you, right? Looking at your expression, Lord Fatty, I, am enjoying it very much!”
Chapter 1369. You're Afraid! |
Ye Yuan was indeed rather surprised. Little Fatty passed the first round so laboriously, so Ye Yuan did not expect that he actually earned points in the second round.
Looks like this joker, Little Fatty, was not as simple as he looked on the surface!
Although this second round was done under a very fair environment, it was also considered each trying to outshine the other.
Each person had some of their own trump card ability, even if being restricted in various ways.
But with Xie Jingyi successfully passing the round, Ye Yuan was happy for him too.
“Heh, couldn’t tell that you really have some capability!” Ye Yuan laughed and said.
Xie Jingyi also smiled and said, “The one who’s capable is you! Although cultivation realm was adjusted accordingly, being able to pass through the second round with your strength is already very difficult to begin with!”
Time passed day by day. One martial artist after another was killed in the consciousness space, then came out.
In this round, Ye Yuan’s results were not only not considered outstanding, it even somewhat paled in comparison.
But all these, Ye Yuan actually expected it to some extent and was also not really dejected.
Ever since coming to the Heavenspan World, Ye Yuan had already set his mind straight.
He was no longer a proud son of heaven who possessed a lifetime’s experience and was also unable to crush all the way like in the past.
But he could take it one step at a time, walking firmly!
In reality, Ye Yuan’s cultivation path had only just begun.
It was very normal for him to not be able to compete with those disciples that large families groomed heavily.
But then again, his middle-stage Grotto Profound strength being able to do it to this extent already crushed countless powerhouses.
He believed that when his cultivation realm rose, he absolutely would not be worse than these so-called geniuses.
After a month, the second round, Earth Carnage, ended. Qin Shao shook the others off behind with the result of 40 waves, leaving them far behind in the dust.
After two rounds, he ranked first with 315 points!
But what everyone did not expect was that Brilliant Peace City’s Jia Chong actually caught up from behind after this round, surpassing Su Yuecang, and ranking in as second!
His result was 36 waves.
Seeing Jia Chong obtaining this result, Xie Jingyi’s expression became very ugly again.
And just as the results were announced, Jia Chong actually walked over toward Xie Jingyi.
He looked at Xie Jingyi with a haughty look and said disdainfully, “I didn’t expect that you, this kind of trash, could actually clear two rounds too! But … it’s useless! You saw it yourself too, the disparity between you and me is like a firefly versus the bright moon! You don’t take a piss and check yourself out either, are you worthy of Lin Xiu?”
