Chapter 240 I Hate Three Plus One

Chapter 240 I Hate Three Plus One

The affiliated schools are not lacking in geniuses, as everyone knows. The first and second affiliated schools have gathered geniuses from all walks of life and races of the empire. Perhaps these teachers have become numb, after all, there are too many geniuses here, and they are experiencing aesthetic fatigue.

The shooting range is circular, divided into eight smaller fields, each occupying a 45-degree fan-shaped area. Outside the shooting range is a series of stands with two levels. The upper level is the area where the instructors in charge of the tests can move around, while the lower level is the area where the trainees who have come to be tested can move around. Those who have finished testing or are waiting to be tested can watch the shooting of those who are being tested in the shooting range below from here.

Shooting is a compulsory course for every student, even if you haven't touched a gun yet. Once you're officially admitted, you'll need to take a shooting course. Therefore, shooting is considered a key course at the school, and many instructors like to use it to assess students. Whether it's course evaluations or current selection tests, shooting accounts for a significant percentage. Because of this, many people choose shooting.

Outside, curved shooting might be considered an extremely difficult technique, but here, in the clash of geniuses, it has become uneventful. If you hit the bullseye every time, the instructors might give you a second glance.

Some alumni from the affiliated schools were also watching. From their expressions, Xilin knew that not many of the current applicants would meet their standards. Of course, this didn't mean that the applicants were bad; if they were admitted and received further training at the affiliated school, they would shine even brighter.

As the instructors casually observed and alumni chatted, test-takers went in and out one by one. Before arriving here, they were full of ambition, but only after experiencing it firsthand did they understand why Affiliated No. 1 and Affiliated No. 2 were the top schools in the empire. Gold will always shine, but when many pieces of gold are together, yours will not stand out.

However, Xilin believes that the shooting test assesses the candidates' shooting skills on the one hand, and on the other hand, it observes the type of gun each candidate is accustomed to using on the other.

Yes, the guns used in the shooting tests here are all chosen by the candidates themselves, and they are allowed to use their own guns directly. This is why there is no ban on bringing firearms to the Affiliated First Preparatory Campus, and it also shows that the people at the Affiliated First Campus have the ability to control any potential situations.

Xilin stood in the sky watching the people below shoot.

  

Libero and Tietou didn't choose shooting, but Weilai and Teita did. Weilai was ahead of Xilin in line, and Teita was behind Xilin, according to the order of registration.

Wei Lai and Xi Lin were assigned to the same sector. Wei Lai had a great feel for shooting. When Xi Lin watched Wei Lai shoot, he thought of Tang Qiuqiu. Such a feel for shooting was either innate or influenced by his living environment. If it was the latter, then the place where Wei Lai lived was indeed quite chaotic. But it was not easy to cultivate someone like Wei Lai, who always seemed carefree, in such a chaotic place.

Wei Lai picked a gun directly from the gun rack at the shooting range, looked at it, fired a test shot, and then started firing. He hit all the shots, and it was even a burst of fire.

Standing here, Xilin couldn't see Wei Lai's expression while shooting, only her shooting technique and the result. Perhaps some of the instructors could see it through the cameras inside the shooting range. After Wei Lai finished shooting, Xilin felt that the instructors in charge of this fan-shaped area performed somewhat differently; he could call it satisfaction.

"Xilin, is it almost your turn?" Teita ran over; he had just gone to chat with a former student he knew. Teita didn't feel much pressure about the design test.

"Yes, there are two more people," Xilin said, pointing to the fan-shaped area in front of them.

Teita waved his hand and said, "Don't be nervous, stay calm!" This was something his father often told him.

Xilin smiled. "I'm not nervous."

Just then, Wei Lai returned from his walk.

"There's nothing much to see. It's unusual that all the previous students are looking at the pretty girls, and the girls are all looking at the pretty boys. The professors keep yawning; I wonder if they're deliberately trying to annoy us." Wei Lai leaned against the railing like a boneless lamb. "I'm so hungry. Do you guys have anything to eat?"

Xilin tossed Wei Lai a compressed biscuit, a bag of jerky, and a bottle of water, saying, "Conserve your energy. I reckon the next round will be quite packed."

"This test is really troublesome." Wei Lai took the food and began to replenish her strength.

Wei Lai didn't have a subspace container, which was a luxury for him, so he couldn't carry as much food as Xilin and Teita. He didn't want to take nutritional pills either; they were fine for normal times, but they couldn't meet his energy needs during this kind of test.

"Oh, I heard from someone that there have been some changes compared to the third round of testing," Teita said.

"What's changed?" Xilin and Weilai looked at Teita at the same time.

Teita sighed, "I heard that starting this time, the third round of testing will become a three-plus-one test: three optional tests plus one additional test. However, this additional test may be different each year. It seems that this time we will be testing long-distance running."

"Long-distance running? How long?" Xilin asked.

Teita shook her head. "I don't know. They don't know either. We'll have to ask the tutor in charge."

Wei Lai, munching on dried meat, looked up at the sky with a bright yet melancholic expression: "I have a bad feeling..."

Xilin's number plate vibrated; this was a test notification.

"I'm going over there, you guys chat first." After saying that, Xilin walked towards the fan-shaped area of ​​the shooting range, and took out the box that Guan Feng had given him. Subspace was not allowed to be used within the shooting range.

Since Guan Feng gave this to Xi Lin, it means Xi Lin should use it boldly; there's no need to hide it.

After the previous candidate came out, Xilin inserted the number plate he had received earlier into the card slot. The door opened, and Xilin entered carrying his suitcase.

"What's that box?" Wei Lai asked Teita while eating compressed biscuits while standing on the stands.

"A gun?" Teita wasn't sure either, as it was rare for people to bring in guns in boxes.

There are already cursors flashing in the target area, about fifty in total. Each cursor is only the size of a fingernail and its speed and direction are unpredictable.

Xilin stood in the archer's area, opened the box on the table beside him, and began to assemble it, at a speed no slower than Guanfeng's assembly that day.

A high-ranking member of the stands, who had been casually watching his assigned area's instructor suddenly stand up, seemed unsure. He checked the monitor's display again and couldn't help but curse, "Damn it! How could that old fox Guan possibly let go?! How could he possibly let go?!"

Seeing this person's reaction, another instructor, holding a teacup, swayed over and asked, "What's wrong? Did you get a sciatic nerve spasm?"

"Smack your grandma! I've asked that old fox Guan so many times and he wouldn't give it to me, but he gave it to a little kid!"

The person who had wandered over glanced at the image on the screen and nearly dropped his cup: "This thing, it was sent out so quickly!"

The heads of the other areas were also curious about the two people's reactions, and their expressions varied after learning the reason. But it must be said, the box had definitely captured the attention of the instructors in charge.

"Hmm? Why does Xilin's gun look so strange?" Wei Lai mumbled, his mouth full.

"Hellfire Razer! That's Hellfire Razer! The pattern on the box lid is the Hellfire Razer logo, and it's a K-type gun! It's a K!" Teita shouted excitedly, staring intently at the situation on Xilin's side.

Teita had only seen the B and E models of the Infernal Razer; he had never seen the K model. His father said that there were no more than five people in the entire empire who used the K model. The First Affiliated Hospital had always wanted to train people to use the K model, but very few had actually passed the test. His father said that the old fox in charge of vetting was very difficult to deal with, so even now, some people who believed they could use the K model had been rejected by the old fox.

Teita's shouts attracted a lot of attention. Some people who were talking looked over, and even those who didn't know about the Infernal Razer's reaction to Teita, combined with the way the instructors on the second floor were looking over, began to pay attention to the situation in Xilin.

The candidates this year reacted noticeably less strongly than those in previous years. When they learned that Xilin was using the Infernal Razer K, they all looked like they had seen a ghost, and then they all stared intently at the shooting range over Xilin's side.

After the Xilin is assembled, the system will have a ten-second explanation time, telling the candidate the cursor position and shooting time, which is essentially useless information. However, the purpose of this seemingly useless information is actually to allow the candidate to adjust to their optimal state within these ten seconds. Since the candidate entered the shooting range, various physiological parameters of the candidate have been monitored, and data such as heart rate, pulse, and blood pressure have been plotted. This also effectively tests each candidate's psychological qualities.

After ten seconds, the system announced the start.

Xilin raised his hand and fired without any hesitation.

"It's off-center..."

Before Wei Lai could finish speaking, the system on Xilin's end announced five consecutive "Target hit!" messages.

And then... no more.

Xilin put away his gun, disassembled and reassembled it, and left.

The area was completely silent, with only the sounds of the other sector systems in the shooting range audible.

The combination caused a roar of applause from the entire audience.

Wei Lai spat out the biscuit crumbs in her mouth and almost choked to death. She had to pour several mouthfuls of water into her mouth to recover.

"Five...five shots?!" Wei Lai stretched out his palm toward Teita, his five fingers spread, as if confirming the number.

"Hmm! Five shots!"

Teita's eyes lit up. This was the K-type! The highest-level K-type from the Infernal Razer! His father had always hoped to recruit someone who could use a K-type gun, but the cunning old fox never let anyone through. Teita often heard his father complain, but after witnessing Xilin's shooting today, Teita finally understood why his father was so persistent in recruiting someone who could use a K-type gun. Although his current abilities were limited and he didn't fully understand, five shots, fifty hits—that was enough.

The instructor in charge of the Xilin sector looked at the physiological parameter chart of the shooter drawn by the system, and after a long while, sighed, "Another one."

Another person who fires guns like they're eating, with no fluctuation in firing parameters.

Before Xilin, Wei Lai was the same.

"Sirin! Sirin!" Teita rushed over, gazing longingly at Sirin. "Can I touch K?"

"K" is Teita's nickname for the Razer Inferno K-type; he has always called it that in private.

"It depends on your performance. If you do well in the later test, I'll agree."

"It's a deal!"

It's a deal.

"Alright! You wait here!" Teita said and ran towards the shooting range. It was almost his turn, but he wasn't in this sector; he was on the other side.

Wei Lai looked at Xi Lin with a strange expression. "Hey, what kind of snake is that? How does it shoot? I want to see too."

"I'll show you when we get back."

"Hehe, thanks!" Wei Lai chewed on a biscuit and continued watching the test in the arena, but his mind was already wandering.

Teita was young, but his marksmanship was quite good. He didn't have any fancy techniques, no arc shots, or multiple hits in one shot, but every shot hit the center of the cursor, and he fired very decisively.

After the test, Teita couldn't wait to run back: "How was it? Not bad, right?!"

"That's good. I'll show you when we get back after the test. Now, take a break. The shooting is almost over, and the additional events will be revealed soon," Xilin said.

Just as Xilin had said, after the shooting ended, the other events also concluded, and the trainees were taken to a meeting point. At the meeting point, Xilin and his two companions met up with Li Bello and Tie Tou. Judging from their expressions, they had done quite well on the test.

However, while the three tests went well, the subsequent additional test left everyone bewildered.

The additional item is long-distance running, which many people have heard about, but the specifics are only now being revealed.

What exactly happened? Running around the ball.

What does it mean to run around the ball? Look, everyone is standing on the "equator," which is also the name of a track that was specially built by the First Affiliated High School.

The "equator" is not as smooth and narrow as other runways. It is wide and full of obstacles: forests, piles of rocks, earthen slopes, and so on.

Even though Planet Heke isn't very big, circling it once is enough to exhaust everyone. Apart from the geographical obstacles, when they looked at the black guy running over from not far away, they suddenly felt as if autumn frost had swept over them.

"That's... a monkey?"

"No, that's a chimpanzee, a giant chimpanzee!"

"That's huge."

As the chimpanzee ran closer and closer, the ground shook more and more violently.

"My stomach is starting to tremble," Wei Lai said.

"That's your kidney, that's where you're touching."

"I'm trembling all over. I've never had anyone teach me how to fight this species before!" Wei Lai pointed at the huge creature that looked to be about ten meters long.

"There are more," Xilin said, pointing to some animals that were running over from the other side.

In other words, they not only have to run around the ball, but they also can't just run slowly without any precautions, because these big guys will be chasing them closely.

"I hate 3+1!" Wei Lai sighed to the sky.

Xilin looked around and suddenly realized that the cat had run off somewhere to make friends.
