Chapter 451 In an unfamiliar environment
It sounds simple and plain, but it is not easy to implement. In the Erdu Dynasty, there are 46 cities with a population of over one million, which are large cities, and Lingjiang City is one of them. There are 3 cities with a population of over 20 million, which are super cities. But super cities, big cities and small cities have only places.
In fact, some people who were particularly eager to rank did go to remote areas temporarily. The Erdu Dynasty allowed candidates to freely choose the examination venue, which was easy to understand from a rational point of view: it was fairer to let examinees from big cities flow into small cities.
The first round of assessments in different cities are not the same, and the difficulty levels vary as well, but that doesn’t matter, because this is a selective exam and as long as you rank in the top 20 you will be selected. Of course, only 20 people are allowed to be selected.
Lingjiang City is the core of Zhou Domain, but Zhou Domain is not outstanding among the twenty-five domains of the Erdu Dynasty, and the core of Zhou Domain is not as good as the cores of those large domains.
Apart from the people passing by, the place is almost empty.
Inside the hall, there were already quite a few people gathered here, and judging by the number of people, it was far more than 100. There was nothing wrong with visiting the examination room with relatives and friends before the examination began.
When a person always measures how serious the sins of others are, the kindness of others is ignored.
He came here, took a look and left. There were no seats in the venue, so standing for half an hour wouldn't be tiring, but walking around seemed more relaxing.
The "horn" on the head of the unicorn sturgeon is actually a long tooth that protrudes from the lips. The long tooth can be up to 1~2 meters long and is spiral-shaped. It gets its name because it looks like a horn.
The back of the unicorn sturgeon is brown or brown, the juveniles are black or light gray, the abdomen is white, and the long teeth are also white. The body length of an adult unicorn sturgeon is generally 2 to 3 meters, this length does not include their horns.
After the assessment began, 20 adult horn sturgeons appeared in the examination room.
This thing is an endangered species. The horn sturgeons in the examination room are not real ones, but the product of the fusion of Maya's power and modern technology. They not only have physical bodies, but also possess speed and strength that are unmatched by natural horn sturgeons.
The rules are simple: break the tusks of two horn sturgeons with one attack, but as the horn sturgeons rushed into the crowd, the situation got out of control in an instant.
From the moment everyone took out their tools, the assessment turned into a hunting game full of freedom and competition.
The horn of a horned sturgeon will break if it is hit once. There are 115 candidates in the examination room. Even according to the most optimistic estimate, there are only 10 places for advancement.
In the initial stage of the assessment, it is unwise to attack the horned sturgeon. Attacking the candidates is the best option. As long as you knock down everyone else, you can easily reap the rewards.
Supremacy doesn't seem "wise" enough.
His first attack was at a good angle, and if nothing unexpected happened, he would almost certainly hit both sturgeons.
Even though he had used the purple light when he broke into the museum that day, he felt comfortable doing it again now.
Just as they were about to hit the first sturgeon, someone dragged the sturgeon away. Another person secretly snapped his fingers, and green flames splashed out, canceling out the phantom light.
Zhishang sighed lightly. These people still have a good understanding of the overall situation. When faced with something that would harm others and benefit themselves, there must be very few people who can resist the temptation.
It was only the first beam of light that missed, and he didn't feel sorry about it. Purple light of that intensity could be released by just stretching out a finger, and it would be an exaggeration to say that it was just a trial run.
He held the scroll in his right hand and placed it behind his back, the scroll was level with the ground, and his left hand was upright in front of him. He smiled and raised his eyes, and the dark time passed by like a flash.
He was still aiming at the two horns.
If no one interferes with him, he should be safe this time.
However, there are still more than a hundred candidates who are still able to move on the field, and at least one-third of them are watching the condition of the sturgeons. They are very qualified sturgeon protectors. They never attack the sturgeons, and they also help the sturgeons block attacks from others.
But even so, it only hit one horn.
A young man blocked the beam with his body, so he failed to hit the second sturgeon. The Supreme cast a strange look at the man, and the other candidates cast strange looks at him.
There are still 15 horns left on the field, but not a single candidate has met the assessment requirements. The situation is becoming increasingly frightening. With only 10 of the 7 spots left, the contenders are inevitably anxious.
The first four "Horn Breakers" were all besieged, one gave up the test, and another was even kicked out of the test. This shows that there are considerable risks in the assessment process.
If the invigilator had not stopped him in time, he would have been kicked out of the examination room. He was kicked out, but he was lucky not to suffer any injuries.
Only one person was kicked out for "incurring public anger", but there were many who were kicked out due to normal competition or voluntarily withdrew from the exam, leaving less than 1 people on the field.
This is pure data analysis.
Although the other side has more people and more power, it is still uncertain who will surround whom.
Got to deal with one person first.
Who to solve?
Can we deal with the man who dragged the sturgeon away?
Can we deal with the person who set the fire?
Can we take out the person who is blocking the light beam?
The answer is, no, because these people have no grudges against him. Although they have affected his performance, it is human nature and unavoidable.
He would attack the person closest to him. Whoever charged first would be the first to be hit.
This evil bone was obtained from a famous and prominent figure. It was a tomb that was open to the public. The person in the coffin had been dead for more than a hundred years. The body was rotten, but his fame and great deeds were still there.
The bones of the wicked are not real bones, but the sins of the person are recorded on the scroll. When a person dies, the body disappears and the bones weather. It doesn't matter. As long as this person has come into this world and committed heinous crimes, he is qualified to be part of his power.
He did not reject this "impure" power at all. If sin is a calamity, then these people are just those who cannot escape it. It is destined, and those who are doomed cannot escape it. Powerful power does not distinguish between good and evil. It mainly depends on who uses it.
More than twenty people rushed towards him, coming from all directions, and one even swooped down on him.
Zhishang swept his eyes across the entire field, his left hand in front, emitting a stream of purple light, and he himself was only slightly slower than the light.
When the man was hit by the flowing light, he swung his right hand behind him, and the scroll rotated and collided with the human body. With a "dong" sound, the man fell down.
The one who charged in the front was hit the hardest. There were two reasons for this. One was that he was not prepared. He was in the lead and ran the fastest, so he didn't take the man seriously at all. The other reason was that the evil bone suppressed him too much.
Zhishang didn't think he used so much force that he could knock the man down with just one move.
He couldn't quite measure the weight of the evil bones. In his hands, the evil bones seemed to have always been that heavy.
Although he didn't understand it at first, he soon realized why the evil bones were so lethal to this person.
Although the assessment was important, there was no need to get beaten up, not to mention that there was no benefit from getting beaten. After a brief consideration, they dispersed.
The Supreme stood aside and waited for the opportunity.
Someone obviously couldn't wait any longer.
One of the examinees released a large amount of white smoke, blocking everyone's view. Under the cover of the billowing white smoke, screams continued. Sturgeons swam in the smoke, forcing the examinees to "fish in troubled waters."
