One skill point per second, I turn fireballs into forbidden spells.

Chapter 91: Giving Shenxiao a little shock to the Necromancer System!
in the audience.

Li Yuanjing was also somewhat taken aback when he saw Lin Yi's handsome face appear on the big screen in the arena!
How could it be so fast!

The first two placement matches should take a lot of time, right?
However, recalling Lin Yi's method of directly unleashing two seventh-tier spells, one ice and one fire, during the fifth round of the national college entrance examination, he was still impressed.

He suddenly realized it wasn't strange at all...

The characters in the first two rounds of battles were, after all, monsters and professionals created from the illusionary dungeon.

It would be incredibly easy for Lin Yi to crush them.

Most importantly, after talking with Meng Yuanzhou, Lin Yi is no longer so cautious in his thinking.

Since the fact that he had already mastered seventh-order spells had been exposed, there was no need to keep it hidden any longer.

However, Meng Yuanzhou told him to be more careful and to avoid using those eighth-tier and forbidden spells if possible.

"Good morning, good afternoon, and good evening, fellow students of Shenxiao Academy!!"

Welcome to the Divine Firmament Arena!

"I'm Xue Liang, your favorite host!!"

A passionate voice rang out from the loudspeakers throughout the entire Shenxiao Arena. At the same time, the arena where Lin Yi was located moved to the center of the entire arena stage at an extremely fast speed.

Having witnessed the astonishing technology of the Divine Firmament mothership, Lin Yi had become accustomed to such scenes.

"Perhaps it's because the Abyss Level 0 dungeon, which is the most difficult in our academy and the rarest in the entire Great Xia, is about to open!"

"Our college welcomes its first batch of outstanding freshmen today!"

"And among them, the most outstanding is none other than this student, Lin Yi!"

"He broke the 176-year history of Shenxiao Academy and is the fifth student in our academy to be admitted through special admissions!"

"Meanwhile, in the recently concluded National College Entrance Examination, this student, Lin Yi, also achieved a perfect score of one million points in five rounds, completing an ultimate dark horse comeback!!"

"This rising star has now cleared the first two rounds of the qualifying tournament at a record-breaking speed!!"

"In the final ranking match, he chose the highest-ranking player he could currently select—Yu Jingcheng, a C-level second-year powerhouse from Chiyou Academy!!"

"Yu Jingcheng has just won the battle against Wu Yang in the grade exchange, and his ranking in the C grade has risen by 79 places!"

"At this moment, he is full of fighting spirit and his momentum is at its peak!"

"Who is it that our legendary freshman Lin Yi was able to complete three unprecedented placement matches and directly advance to C-level!"

"Which student, Yu Jingcheng, will be able to defeat this super rookie and obtain all of his freshman resources and benefits? We'll find out soon!!"

"Both sides, please prepare for battle!!"

The host's voice ignited the atmosphere in the audience.

It is currently summer vacation, and most of the students at Shenxiao Academy have already gone home for the holidays.

Some of the "Kings of the Roll" were also on field missions.

However, quite a few students still stayed on campus.

Even if you don't participate in the battle, watching other people's matches in the arena is a very interesting thing.

I just didn't expect today to be so special.

To witness a battle between a freshman who dared to challenge a senior student who had just enrolled!

Boom!
Boom!
Two muffled footsteps sounded.

Lin Yi noticed that on the opposite side of the arena, a burly man nearly two meters tall, clad in armor, with bulging muscles, walked up, looking like a berserker from Norse mythology.

Yu Jingcheng planted the two giant axes into the hard arena floor, revealing a sinister smile: "What gave you the courage to challenge me?"

"Is it because he/she is the top scorer in the country?"

"Back in the day, I was second in the country. Everyone in Shenxiao was in the top ten nationwide, wasn't they?"

As soon as Yu Jingcheng uttered these words.

The atmosphere in the entire arena was completely ignited.

Lin Yi heard a burst of laughter from the audience.

These people aren't particularly interested in prestigious titles like "National Top Scorer" or "National Second Place Scorer."

They didn't even take it to heart.

As Yu Jingcheng said.

Anyone who can enter Shenxiao is already among the top ten in the country.

Top scholars, runners-up... are a dime a dozen in Shenxiao, the number one academy in the Great Xia Dynasty.

"Junior, it's too late to regret it now. I'll gladly accept your freshman resource package."

Yu Jingcheng picked up the giant axe from the ground and pointed it directly at Lin Yi.

At the same time, a countdown appeared on the big screen.

Once the countdown ends, the battle will begin.

Lin Yi already knew the rules regarding the new student resource pack and the role-swapping challenge during the first two rounds of the placement matches.

First of all, the New Student Resource Pack is the first and only free benefit that every new student entering Shenxiao enjoys.

It includes 5 special dungeon entry scrolls that require a rating of C or higher to obtain, as well as growth resources such as breakthrough magic crystals and attribute magic crystals.

If there's no benefit to the person in a higher position from a challenge, then fighting against someone in a lower position would be a loss for them.

Because of the risk of failure.

Therefore, Shenxiao stipulates that once a person in a lower position successfully challenges another person and rises to a higher position, they will accumulate one mandatory battle attempt.

As long as you have a number of mandatory battle attempts, you must accept any challenge from a lower-ranked challenger.

In the battle just now, Yu Jingcheng had just defeated a formidable opponent he had studied for a long time.

The position change was successfully completed.

That's why he appeared on Lin Yi's list of available challenges.

Because he had to accept the fight.

However, in return, Shenxiao also stipulates that if a lower-ranked person fails in a challenge, not only will the number of forced battles on the higher-ranked person be removed, but the daily resource allocation enjoyed by the lower-ranked person will also be transferred to the higher-ranked person in a certain proportion.

This means both sides face risks, while the winners also reap the rewards.

This system is what has allowed the entire rating and role-reversal challenge system to be implemented to this day.

"3!"

"2!"

"1!"

"The battle begins!!"

On the big screen, the countdown reached zero.

The bell rang to signal the start of the battle near the arena.

The next moment, Yu Jingcheng, wielding two axes, leaped high into the air and, with the force of an avalanche, slammed them down on Lin Yi's location.

Berserker Skill: Cleave Mount Hua!

Contrary to the common perception that soldiers are short-armed and clumsy.

Yu Jingcheng's speed is extremely fast!

Actually, Lin Yi had already noticed this when he saw him fighting that knight.

As a heavily armored melee class, he has a great many movement skills.

Besides this aerial leap and slash, there are also skills like charge and berserk dash.

Warriors fight mages.

Once a warrior gets close, a mage basically has no chance to fight back.

That's the opinion of most people in the audience.

They had initially thought that Lin Yi, this exceptional freshman specially recruited by Shenxiao, would bring them a different experience.

Now it seems that their combat experience is severely lacking!
This kind of newbie who only knows how to take exams is no match for the second-year students who have extremely rich combat experience and have even walked on the edge of life and death!
However, just when everyone thought Lin Yi was about to be smashed to zero health by this powerful slash,

Something unexpected happened.

Ding!
The sound of gold and iron clashing sounded.

A giant python with scarlet eyes and its body covered in hard scales suddenly appeared in front of Lin Yi.

Although it was almost cleaved in two by Yu Jingcheng's strike, undead creatures do not feel pain!

Protected by the giant python's body, Lin Yi was unharmed.

It's time to give Shenxiao Academy a real shock, that little necromancer!
