Gao Wu: Others practice martial arts, but you cultivate immortality?

"Third stage of the assessment: Within ten days, each person must kill a beast of a higher cultivation level than themselves!" Xie Jun said with a smile, "How about that? Isn't it easy?"

Keep it simple...

Many people cursed inwardly, but their faces remained expressionless;

"You're just a bunch of unintelligent beasts, and each of you has mastered martial arts!"

The odds of winning... are actually quite high;

If you can't even do this, then go do whatever you're supposed to do!

Of course, as always, you can give up; no one will force you...

"Reporting, Instructor!"

"explain."

"Can we team up?"

"Okay, but I don't want you to do anything that crosses the line just to pass the test..."

Xie Jun offered a reminder and then disappeared, leaving everyone to discuss it amongst themselves.

Upon hearing that they could team up, everyone initially felt a bit relieved;

But after the initial excitement, it became clear that things weren't so simple...

"Brother Chen, can we team up?"

The boy whose name was called looked at the eagerness in the other person's eyes and shook his head with difficulty: "I'm sorry, this assessment... even I'm not very confident..."

After the second round of assessments, fewer than a thousand people remain at the training base.

There are no longer any martial artists at the Qi and Blood Realm; the weakest students are at the Unfailing Realm, and martial artists at the Inner Breath Realm are no longer limited to disciples of martial arts families, but have increased in number.

From the perspective of the students in the Unobstructed Realm, if they teamed up with martial artists in the Inner Breath Realm, their mission should be very easy to complete.

But... others also have their own assessment tasks, and they are even more difficult: hunting exotic beasts from the four realms!

Why waste time and energy on irrelevant people?

If I were to encounter another powerful beast from the third realm and get injured, and just barely fail the test... who would compensate me for my loss?

When forming a team, you should team up with people of similar skill level. Why would you want to bring along someone who is a burden to you?

You're only thinking that your task might not be difficult for me, but why should I help you?

Seeing the girl's disappointed expression, Brother Chen still tried to comfort her, saying, "If I have time after I finish my assessment... I'll come and help you!"

But everyone knows that this is probably just an excuse;

The girl forced a stiff smile: "Thank you, Brother Chen..."

Seeing this, the others gradually lost their desire to seek out stronger teammates.

That would make things awkward for both sides, which wouldn't be good...

......

"The first assessment tests one's comprehension;"

The second assessment tests one's talent for cultivation;

The third assessment will test both combat effectiveness and strategic thinking.

"Pretty much." Xie Jun nodded. "After the three assessments, the training camp should enter its second phase."

In fact, if we're just testing combat strength, all we need to do is stipulate that teams are not allowed.

The reason for allowing team formation is twofold: firstly, to test the interpersonal skills of the weaker participants;

Secondly, it tests those who are relatively strong, whether they can see the situation clearly, and whether they know that they can't just show their compassion at any time.

Thirdly, it can also increase the cohesion among students who are in teams with similar skill levels!

There are only so many geniuses in this year's cohort, so we'll most likely be interacting with each other frequently in the future...

Chu Yuan asked, "Can I team up with someone? There aren't any sixth-realm beasts here for me to complete the assessment..."

Xie Jun rolled his eyes: "If you're at the ninth level, where are we supposed to find a tenth-level beast to help you complete the assessment?"

"..."

"As for forming teams... just don't go too far," Xie Jun said vaguely.

Chu Yuan naturally understood his meaning, and the next day he only took Yang Yi, Tian Tian, ​​and Cui Hanyu into the snow mountain;

Several exotic beasts from the fourth realm were quickly found...

"Chu Yuan, let me try first." Yang Yi looked at the tall white ape in the distance, eager to give it a go.

"Go ahead," Chu Yuan said, unconcerned.

Cui Hanyu said with some concern, "Yang Yi, be careful."

"Don't worry." Yang Yi grinned, grabbed his knife, and jumped out...

There's nothing wrong with bringing Tian Tian and Yang Yi along to clear the game, but the reason Chu Yuan brought Cui Hanyu along wasn't because she was also from Chenyang City;

Instead, they discovered that Yang Yi and Cui Hanyu seemed to be having an affair... Since that's the case, they're practically one of their own, so it doesn't matter if they bring them along.

Yang Yi has made great progress. After he unleashed his swordsmanship, the cold light enveloped the white ape like a torrential downpour.

The scene was quite impressive, causing snow to scatter and rocks to fly everywhere within a radius of dozens of meters!

The hurt was just somewhat touching...

The snow hadn't melted yet when the group saw a figure being thrown out...

Yang Yi stood up, leaning on his knife, spitting out small mouthfuls of blood;

Seeing the worried look in Cui Hanyu's eyes, she stubbornly insisted, "I'm fine..."

Cui Hanyu: "......"

Yang Yi charged toward the white ape that only had a few scratches on its body, but this time he was much more cautious.

Chu Yuan could tell that he had learned a sword technique, a body technique, and a leg technique;

His attacks were fairly well-planned, but his mastery of these martial arts techniques was still somewhat rough... After all, he had only been learning for a short time, and most of his time was spent practicing his cultivation techniques.

The white ape repeatedly swatted the annoying little bug away, but could not kill it, and began to get annoyed.

It leaped into the air and slammed its fists down!

The howling wind made Yang Yi's scalp tingle, but he did not back down and slashed diagonally upwards with his sword!

A chilling flash of light disappeared in an instant, and Yang Yi's figure was suddenly lowered by half, his lower body slammed into the ground...

But one of the white ape's arms was also severed and fell to the ground in the snow!

Its eyes turned blood red in an instant, and it raised its huge foot to stomp!

Cui Hanyu exclaimed in surprise, "Yang Yi!"

Even faster than her shout was a black line;

The black line pierced straight through the white ape's head, causing it to explode like a watermelon, drenching Yang Yi with its juices...

......

"This kind of beast is not very intelligent and has not mastered any martial arts skills, yet you still managed to beat it to this extent."

If you continue fighting like this when you encounter other races or enemies in the future, you'll be courting death.

"I understand what you mean... but why should I fight against alien races that are above my level?"

"Soldiers against soldiers, generals against generals, let the strong deal with the strong." Yang Yi, though seriously injured, still spoke with righteous indignation;

"...What you say makes a lot of sense, but what if we actually encounter that situation?"

"If we can run, we'll definitely run; if we can't... then we'll just have to fight him!"

Chu Yuan patted him on the shoulder and exclaimed, "You're such a bachelor, you'll definitely live a long time."

Hehe~
