Reborn as a tiger, he was chosen by the nation as its guardian beast.

Chapter 95 The Test from Wang Hu

September 1st.

At the foot of Tianniu Mountain.

A sea of ​​people, a dense, dark mass.

Wang Hu stood in front of the gate of Qiyuan University halfway up the mountain and looked down, finding it densely packed with people.

Looking at these people, he couldn't help but grin.

This year, Huacheng Qiyuan University was recruiting 300 students, but 5,328 candidates came from all over the country.

It is said that all these people experienced various physical reactions after practicing guiding techniques.

To put it simply, this is more than five thousand geniuses.

This also shows that China's resources are indeed substantial.

So many cultivation geniuses can be found so easily.

But we need to filter out 5,000 of these 5,000 people and select the best 300 from among them.

This is definitely a huge undertaking.

Just then, Zhang Shouzhou, wearing his loose-fitting lay Buddhist robe, strode over.

He stopped beside Wang Hu, glanced down, and a fine layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.

"Big Cat, I'm entrusting the first challenge to you. You'd better do a good job."

Zhang Shouzhou lowered his voice, his tone urgent.

"In any case, you have to eliminate four-fifths today. Otherwise, the remaining assessments can't be conducted, and the school's facilities can't accommodate so many people."

Upon hearing this, Wang Hu couldn't help but sigh.

He thought to himself, "That old fellow Zhang Shouzhou is really treating me like a donkey pulling a millstone."

All the dirty, tiring, and offensive work falls to him!

But there's nothing we can do; his abilities are just right.

Looking at Wang Hu's expression, Zhang Shouzhou knew that Wang Hu would have to put in a lot of effort today, and he couldn't let him go without some compensation.

He turned around and waved behind him.

Two uniformed staff members immediately carried over a bamboo basket that was about half a person's height.

The basket was placed heavily on the ground, making a dull thud.

Zhang Shouzhou ripped off the red cloth covering the top.

A basket full of crystal cores.

It shimmered with colorful light in the sunlight.

"Big Cat, feel free to use these crystal cores."

Zhang Shouzhou pointed to the basket and waved his hand.

"Eat whatever you want if you don't have enough spiritual energy. The school will reimburse all your expenses today."

Upon hearing this, Wang Hu's heart stirred, and the sullen expression on his face softened somewhat.

The compensation is indeed quite good.

He definitely won't be able to use up all of these crystal cores today; he can keep the rest for himself.

It just so happens that he has almost finished using up the crystal cores he got from Qin Tieshan.

Wang Hu shook his fur, let out a low growl, and gave Zhang Shouzhou a reassuring look.

"Bang!"

Just then, a crisp command gunshot rang out from down the mountain.

The assessment has begun.

The densely packed examinees began to surge forward, climbing up the newly built asphalt mountain road.

When Zhang Shouzhou heard the gunshot, a look of urgency flashed across his face.

"Big Cat, I'm leaving this place to you."

"I'll go inside and take another look."

He hurriedly gave a few instructions and then ran back up the mountain.

Wang Hu took two steps forward and glanced at the densely packed examinees below.

The spiritual energy in his dantian was quietly circulating.

At the same time, it mobilizes the nine orifice stones within the body.

It opened its mouth wide and exhaled a breath of spiritual energy towards the direction below the mountain.

When the breath was first exhaled, it was only a very slight gust of air.

But after this airflow traveled down the mountain path for a distance, it began to expand and accelerate rapidly.

It quickly turned into a strong wind.

The wind grew stronger as it went downhill, and gradually a whistling sound could be heard from it.

A fierce wind swept down.

The wind blew so hard that the trees on both sides of the road shook violently, and the leaves rustled loudly.

Wang Ziming was walking uphill in the crowd.

A strong wind blew straight into our faces.

He suddenly leaned back, lost his footing, and stumbled.

cold.

A bone-chilling cold seeped into my clothes with the wind and clung directly to my skin.

He began to tremble uncontrollably.

Something's not right about this wind.

The wind carried a sense of oppression that made his bones ache.

A thought popped into his head.

He turned and went down the mountain.

Once you leave this road, you can escape this suffocating cold and oppressive feeling.

The surrounding crowd began to stir.

A girl with a ponytail stood to Wang Ziming's left front.

She was blown back two steps by the wind, and then, whether frightened by the wind or for some other reason, she suddenly burst into tears.

She quickly turned around and ran down the mountain, crying as she went.

Wang Ziming watched the girl's retreating figure, and his legs started to cramp.

He swallowed.

This should be the first hurdle in the assessment.

The person in charge who brought them there said that Qiyuan University only admits 300 students.

There are so many people here this time, probably several thousand.

This wind was definitely created by supernatural forces.

The purpose is to filter out those who lack willpower.

He glanced back at the foot of the mountain.

My parents were standing outside the cordon, tiptoeing to look this way.

He recalled the things he had said at home.

For the rise of China.

To protect my family.

If he can't even withstand a gust of wind today, then even if he becomes extraordinary, will he have the courage to face those ferocious monsters in the future?

Take a step back, go back to studying for the college entrance exam, and be an ordinary person.

Further down the line, they may face life-or-death battles.

He clenched his fists so tightly that his nails dug into his flesh.

He's had enough of the life of an ordinary person.

This time, he wants to climb to the top of the mountain and see a different view.

Wang Ziming gritted his teeth and gripped the seam of his pants tightly with both hands.

He lowered his center of gravity and took another step forward.

"call"

Another gust of wind swept down from the mountain.

It was even more intense than before.

The chill intensified.

There seemed to be a faint, almost imperceptible roar of a tiger carried on the wind.

Wang Ziming felt as if he had been hit in the chest by a sledgehammer.

It felt like I couldn't breathe.

The urge to escape was screaming wildly in my mind.

A large number of the candidates around him collapsed.

Some people were pale-faced and sat on the ground, panting heavily.

Some people turned around and joined the group fleeing down the mountain.

After the second gust of wind, a large section of the more than 5,000-person team was instantly cleared out.

The number of people being eliminated is rising sharply.

Wang Hu stood halfway up the mountain, looking down at the scene.

He controlled the wind intensity.

We need to weed out those who lack determination, but we also need to give everyone time to adapt. We can't let these hard-won talents develop problems.

This is much harder than simply slapping an enemy to death.

Prince Ming stared intently at the sloping mountain road ahead.

The thigh muscles were taut.

He lifted his right foot.

Braving the fierce wind that threatened to push him down the mountain, he stomped hard on the asphalt road.

The soles of the shoes rubbed against the road surface, making a soft sound.

The first step has been taken.

The resistance has increased.

But he didn't stop.

The left foot then lifted and fell again.

The second step.

Sweat beaded on my forehead, only to be instantly dried by the cold wind.

Those around him who were still persevering began to follow his example, lowering their bodies and moving upwards step by step.
