My anime-style card deck is fine!

After swallowing Amon's room whole, it flew to Amon's side.

Then a protective shield was erected, isolating the people around it from the outside.

"No, it's not a protective shield!"

At first, Amon also thought it was a protective shield, but he quickly realized something was wrong, because the crowd did not disperse when he walked through it; instead, a path suddenly appeared in front of him.

It's not that the crowd has been separated, but that we ourselves have become 'narrower'!

Even in dense crowds, there are gaps.

And these gaps are the [roads] that Amon walked on!

"That's really impressive. I wonder who came up with this." Amon already thought this quiz assistant was pretty amazing, but he never expected it to go even further!

However, this answer ultimately went unanswered.

Amon followed the question-answering assistant to the examination hall, where he met Wang Quan and the others again.

Unlike Amon's listless and dejected appearance in the morning, these people seemed to be getting a good rest, which annoyed Amon. When they saw Amon, they naturally came over to greet him.

"Damn it, you guys didn't even remind me yesterday!"

Amon spotted Huang Jie waving at him immediately. After walking over, he launched into a probing question, only to be met with Huang Jie's retort: ​​"You just didn't notice. What does it have to do with us?"

"Let's duel now! Since I've had a long and tiring day, you won't have an easy time either!"

"Whoa, what a treacherous scheme! But if I refuse the duel, how will you respond?"

Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Second Round of Exams! Begin!

Naturally, Amon ended up in Silver's circle.

Even the Silver-ranked players, led by Wang Quan, naturally accepted Amon's joining, causing the Bronze-ranked card masters around them to exchange glances.

Ammon probably didn't notice either.

Unlike before, it was still a test preparation area, but Amon was in the center of the bronze statue, as insignificant as an ant.

But now, Amon stands amidst the silver, and no one can ignore his brilliance.

"it is finally over."

Amon looked at the high-ranking leader on the stage, who was waving to the audience and candidates after the final speech. He kept applauding from below the stage and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The people around them all had similar expressions.

The applause grew even more enthusiastic and lasted for quite a while.

"Honestly, how well are you prepared for this round of assessments?"

Huang Jie, very outgoing, sidled up to Amon. The archaeologist's rigidity and dullness were completely absent from him—although Amon knew that such professional labels and stereotypes were unreliable, this guy was really lively, and he would even bring a drink helmet to parties!

Despite having little interaction with this guy, Amon inexplicably felt a connection with him and replied, "Don't worry, I now have the power of a million people!"

Don't even mention that it's just a little tiring; even staying up for three days and three nights is nothing to me!

"what?"

Huang Jie was completely bewildered, not knowing what had happened.

After the boring speeches by the leaders and the top leaders, it was almost time for the second round of assessments to begin.

After bidding farewell and offering blessings to Wang Quan, Dadi, Huang Jie, and Wushan Yu, Amon took his room key from the quiz assistant's mouth, unfolded it, and returned to his private rest room.

After a final rest and deck check, the second round of assessments begins!

Just like the very first battlefield.

The answer assistant transformed into a portal of light, standing in the corner.

Within Violet's personal spiritual consciousness, her card trembled slightly. Sensing this, Amon smiled and strode towards the portal, disappearing into it.

—The Second Round of the Ultimate College Entrance Examination: Card Production!

Officially begin!

……

[Welcome, Amon, to the second round of the final college entrance examination – the Myriad Realms Corridor.]

After Amon stepped into the portal of light.

A familiar quiz assistant suddenly appeared beside him, and behind the door, Amon found himself in a blank room. Apart from the light door behind him, the only things that caught Amon's attention were the six wooden doors in total, which were up, down, left, right, front, and back.

The wooden doors were all of a very ordinary style, with no special features. Amon had some guesses, but he still looked at the quiz assistant next to him.

This winged slime is constantly bubbling.

A series of messages appeared.

[The answer-answering assistant is projected onto the candidate's retina using special technology; it is not a physical entity in reality.]

Now, this answer assistant will release the relevant rules for this round of assessment to candidate Amon.

[1. Entry Rules - Candidates are not allowed to use any cards they bring with them for this assessment. Please hand over the cards in your card box to the answer assistant here [Entrance Space] for temporary use.]

【10:……】

This year's final college entrance examination was jointly organized by the Ministry of Education and seven universities, including Tsinghua University, Beijing University, Shanghai University, and the National University of Defense Technology.

This assessment is protected by relevant laws. Violation of the assessment rules will result in civil liability, and serious violations will be subject to criminal liability.

Finally, the assessment is about to begin.

Wishing Amon the best of luck on his exams.

A familiar row of bubble messages appeared, then one bubble was pushed aside by another, and the winged slime opened its mouth and spat out a machine that looked strangely familiar to Amon.

—Card making machine!

Of course Amon was familiar with it; he used it to wage a war of attrition yesterday!

However, compared to the one used by Amon, this machine was much more refined and sophisticated. Then, the answer assistant started to pop up bubbles, displaying the instructions for using the card-making machine.

Amon glanced at it a few times and found that the card-making process was basically the same as yesterday's.

However, several new card production modes have been added.

It must be related to the subsequent assessment stages. After confirming that Amon had viewed the information, the card-making machine was swallowed back into the stomach by the question-answering assistant.

Amon was not surprised.

—After all, the card-making machine is such a big machine, it's really not easy to carry around.

[Now that you have reviewed all the relevant rules, please temporarily entrust the cards in your deck to the answer assistant for safekeeping.] The answer assistant will display a pop-up message.

Then another situation description was randomly updated:

[Candidates may keep their own cards, but if a candidate uses their original card during the assessment, it will be considered cheating unless absolutely necessary, and the case will be transferred to the judicial authorities. Please be aware of this.]

"Have you considered that some cards are not suitable to be out of your possession?"

Amon was still hesitating, after all, his wife Violet had just come to his side and he was about to be separated from her, and he was thinking about whether to withdraw from the exam.

However, since you can carry it yourself, it doesn't matter if you don't use it.

Chapter 99: The Corridor of Myriad Phenomena

Concentrate your mental energy.

As the cards were removed one by one from the card box, the last Violet card flickered slightly when it was removed.

"Good job, Major."

"Yes, Violet."

Holding Violet's card in his hand, Amon smiled slightly.

However, after removing the cards, he couldn't help but feel uneasy. It wasn't just because Violet left, but more importantly, once the card box lost the cards as its support, it would instinctively return to the sea of ​​collective consciousness.

Once it collides and intersects with the collective sea of ​​consciousness, the card master's personal sea of ​​consciousness will be severely damaged.

In severe cases, patients may even need to undergo card repair surgery at the hospital.

This is also the fundamental reason why a player usually loses when their deck is completely emptied during a duel.

However, suppressing it for the time being is still not a problem. Amon casually took a card from the answer assistant next to him, and looked down to see that it was indeed the answer assistant's card.

——The 46th National College Entrance Examination Answer Assistant——

Attribute: Normal

Rating: ★

Terms: [Ultimate College Entrance Examination], [Answer Assistant]

Effect: Prevents cheating - This card is not affected by other card effects during a duel. This card cannot be added to your hand, summoned to the field, sent to the graveyard, or banished in any way. If this card is the only card in your deck, the duel is lost.

A completely useless card.

This card was prepared specifically for this assessment. Apart from preventing any accidents caused by an empty card box, it has no other use. Its effect almost completely blocks any possibility of its use.

[Preparation time is about to end. Please prepare.]

The answer assistant popped up a bubble, and about ten seconds later, a new bubble appeared, and at the same time, all six doors of the blank room opened.
