Pre-death assessment

"What were his test questions?"

Li Ming and the others were all somewhat curious.

"It's basically about... being a kind and friendly person, making many friends, and then, in a crucial moment, having a friend willing to take a fatal blow for you, even in death!"

Ling Wu spoke slowly.

He could already tell a little bit that Zhou Haonan was indeed friendly.

Even though he was the first to arrive at this place, he acknowledged that he was the guest.

Where are there so many good-tempered people who can reach the second level?

The reason he has such a good temper is, of course, to make friends.

"Dying because of friendship?"

Li Ming and the others murmured to themselves.

Given the nature of this second test, it might actually be true.

Anyway, theirs is the same, causing people to die for all sorts of reasons.

There are various reasons, but the option of directly killing the target is not one of them!

"And what about me? Brother-in-law, can you figure out what kind of test I'm facing?"

Jiang Luo quickly came closer, her big eyes fixed on Ling Wu.

At this moment, she seemed to wish Ling Wu knew mind-reading.

She desperately wanted Ling Wu to be able to tell what she was thinking just by looking at his eyes.

Unfortunately, this is of course impossible.

Ling Wu simply looked at her, then smiled and said, "Shall we show you?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Luo pondered for a moment.

Yes, if you want Ling Wu to figure out your test questions, you have to take some action.

Without taking any action, he obviously couldn't see anything.

She immediately sat up, pointed at Ling Wu, and said, "Brother-in-law, to be honest, I don't think you're smart at all. If you were really that smart, how could you have lost to my sister? You can't even beat a woman, you're useless!"

Upon hearing this, Li Ming and the others immediately raised their eyebrows.

Holy crap, what nonsense is this girl spouting?

No, she's trying to figure out her test questions from Ling Wu.

But... what kind of method is this?

"Li Qingxue, you are really ugly."

Jiang Luo then said something to Li Qingxue.

Li Qingxue immediately pointed to herself with a frustrated expression, wondering where she looked ugly.

"And you, Li Ming, you're nothing but mediocre!" Jiang Luo then looked at Li Ming.

Li Ming just frowned and didn't say a word.

The reason this girl is saying these things is because she has her own purpose.

That's not what she really meant!

"And you two, Guan Hao and Zhao Yu!"

Jiang Luo then looked at Guan Hao and Zhao Yu: "You're always laughing and joking, you're useless, two good-for-nothings."

"No..." Guan Hao and Zhao Yu exchanged a glance.

Why are you dragging us into this?

"And Dr. Lu, you old man, you're seventy or eighty years old, who knows when you'll kick the bucket..." Jiang Luo then said to Dr. Lu.

Dr. Lu took a deep breath.

You silly girl... don't you know that the thing old people hate most is being told that they are about to die?

After Jiang Luo finished speaking to everyone, she turned her gaze back to Ling Wu.

"So, did you figure it out?" Her eyes held a hint of anticipation.

Ling Wu smiled. It was so obvious that it was obvious.

"It's infuriating!" he continued.

Jiang Luo neither nodded nor shook her head, but simply looked at Ling Wu.

She didn't know whether she could answer yes or no when others presented her with their test questions.

"As long as you don't say it yourself, you can admit or deny what others say," Ling Wu said slowly.

"yes!"

Jiang Luo immediately nodded: "Yes, this is my test question."

As expected of Ling Wu, she saw through my slight display of skill.

"Then...can I tell you now?"

Jiang Luo continued.

Even if others have already figured out your test questions, you can't just say them out loud.

Ling Wudao: "It can't be spoken, it can't be written, and it can't be expressed in any way, such as sign language or Morse code. Besides, saying something like 'I don't even know how to make someone angry to death' is considered saying it directly."

Jiang Luo immediately pouted; this was very uncomfortable.

They can only keep it all inside, never uttering a single word.

Fortunately, Ling Wu realized that he could help him in the future.

"And yours? Can you express yours now?"

Ling Wu then turned his gaze to Li Ming and the others.

If we can see their exam questions early on, we can see if there's an opportunity to help them.

If there's no other opportunity, it's better to go kill the hunters.

"Um... that's not really appropriate." Li Ming scratched his head.

"Mine isn't really suitable either; it's not good to do it to someone you know," Li Qingxue continued.

Their exam questions were all bizarre and difficult to present.

"Okay, you can express your feelings when you have the chance, otherwise it's fine." Ling Wu nodded.

As long as they take action, you will naturally be able to tell.

In any case, every unusual thing they do is inevitably related to the exam questions.

If all else fails, then just obediently go and kill the hunters.

"Um... what I said earlier was all a lie, please don't take it to heart."

Jiang Luo then apologized to everyone.

Unless it's intentional, who would inexplicably talk about their teammates?

"Um... to be honest, I feel like what you said isn't entirely a lie."

Zhao Yu stroked his chin: "It feels a bit half-true, half-false. You're not deliberately criticizing us indirectly, are you?"

For example, she said that her joking around with Guan Hao was useless.

Thinking about it carefully... it does seem to be true.

So far, neither of them has really contributed much to the team.

Let alone the two of them, to be honest, even Li Ming hasn't played much of a role yet.

The only role the three of them have played so far is fighting against the three ability users when they were besieging them.

Jiang Luo joked, "You two are quite clever to have figured that out."

"..." Zhao Yu and Guan Hao were both speechless.

……

Before long, Liu Ruyan and Zhou Haonan brought out a sumptuous dinner.

Zhou Haonan was very polite and friendly to everyone.

He certainly gives off an impression that anyone can be his friend.

Even if we become friends with you, we will never take a knife for you!

During the meal, Ling Wu suddenly said something.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Haonan immediately stopped eating the chopsticks he had brought to his mouth.

Then he stared at Ling Wu with a look of surprise.

Holy crap, who is this guy?

I didn't say anything, so how did he figure out what my test question was?

Does he have some kind of psychic superpower, like being able to read minds?

That's right, his test question was indeed to get a good friend to willingly take a fatal blow for him when he was in mortal danger.

"Wow, this guy's pretty amazing. Does he have some kind of psychic superpower?"

He then smiled and did not deny it.

"No, it's just that you made it more obvious."

Ling Wuhui replied.

"Wow... Is that impressive? You figured it out so easily?"

Zhou Haonan didn't understand. Had he done something too obvious?

Isn't what I'm showing just the hospitality that a normal person should have?

"Of course, this... is our captain!"

Liu Ruyan smiled sweetly: "He is our leader, and he's very smart."

As she spoke, she used her chopsticks to add a piece of meat to Zhou Haonan's bowl.

Zhou Haonan was flattered and quickly smiled in response, "Thank you, beautiful lady."

"My name is Liu Ruyan, didn't I just say that?"

Liu Ruyan glared at him: "You can't even remember someone's name?"

"Got it, got it, hehe."

Zhou Haonan chuckled dryly, looking somewhat embarrassed.

It's quite obvious that he seems somewhat shy in this regard...

A smile played at the corners of Liu Ruyan's lips.

Dealing with young boys like this is definitely her specialty.

Making her completely infatuated with him is no problem at all.

"By the way, did you guys teleport directly from the Xu Shi (7-9 PM) assessment space?"

Zhou Haonan then asked, "Or did you wander around other assessment spaces before coming to the Xu Shi (7-9 PM) assessment space, and then proceed to the second level from there?"

The first level has twelve major categories of assessment space, and the assessment space at the hour of Xu (7-9 PM) is the only passage to the second level.

There are two types of people who come here.

One type has only one summoning ability, while the other... has other abilities besides summoning.

"They basically only have summoning abilities."

Liu Ruyan replied, "I'm different. I also have a fire elemental superpower."

"Elemental system? That's impressive!"

Zhou Haonan looked at Liu Ruyan and asked, "Among the twelve categories of superpowers, apart from summoning abilities, the other superpowers are divided into five levels. Which level are you at?"

"The Four Realms!" Liu Ruyan replied with a smile.

"That amazing?"

Zhou Haonan was somewhat surprised.

Such a beautiful woman, and also a fourth-realm fire elemental superpower user.

She could practically be called the Goddess of Fire!

"And you?"

Liu Ruyan picked up where Zhou Haonan left off: "How many superpowers do you have?"

"I...I only have one."

Zhou Haonan chuckled dryly: "The first time I came to the pre-death assessment space was at 7 PM. I only got one superpower and then came down."

"So what is your summoning ability?" Liu Ruyan then asked.

"I can summon a bunch of gangsters..."

Zhou Haonan chuckled dryly, too embarrassed to call his superpower.

What good is summoning a bunch of thugs?

In the second level of the pre-death assessment space, a group of gangsters are sent to fight to the death with knives against the hunters.

Or should I fight to the death with other ability users?

Isn't that ridiculous?

Upon hearing this, Liu Ruyan and the others all gave a dry laugh.

So, you should be called Chan Ho-nam...

"What are your summoning abilities?"

Zhou Haonan then asked curiously, "You guys are actually able to summon those hunters?"

Chess!

Li Ming replied, "We can summon corresponding items based on the chess pieces, but they must be within our knowledge and actually exist."

"Holy crap, is that awesome?"

Zhou Haonan was someone he greatly admired.

Can you summon a corresponding item or creature based on a given word?

Wouldn't that allow the summoning of trains, chariots, and super cannons?

That's practically defying the heavens!

Compared to them, what use is it for me to summon a bunch of cannon fodder gangsters?

"Summoning abilities are all conceptual abilities."

Ling Wu spoke up, "Your ability to summon gangsters shouldn't have any limitations, right?"

Their chess summoning ability is limited; it must be something that actually exists and is within their knowledge.

Zhou Haonan's summoning ability should be unlimited.

"Yes, but only in modern comics or movies," Zhou Haonan replied.

"That means... it may not actually exist."

Ling Wu smiled and said, "Perhaps you should take a look at those high-level gangster comics or novels."
