Chapter 35

"I think he can solo those low-level Dungeons."

"More than that, he's qualified to solo any Dungeon below level 20, even at Nightmare difficulty."

"I don't think his combat power ends there; we haven't measured his true combat power yet."

"Let's wait for the fifth round of testing. If he wants to be the provincial top scholar, or even the national top scholar, he must choose the fifth round."

"Perhaps we'll be able to see it then."

The examiners discussed among themselves; the exam content was set by the empire's higher-ups, and they had no authority to change it.

The only person present with that power was Ning Xuanfeng, who had arrived later.

He only spoke when he arrived, and since then, he hadn't made a sound, simply watching with great interest.

The examiners also noticed that most of his attention was on Lin Moyu.

He seemed very interested in Lin Moyu.

The third round of testing ended quickly, taking no more than 10 minutes.

People like Xia Xue, Zuo Mei, and Young Guild Master Wang Zihao all successfully killed their opponents and secured their 500 points.

Some succeeded, and some failed.

Another group of candidates was eliminated, losing their eligibility to continue to the next round.

They either gave up voluntarily or were forced to stop the exam after being injured and losing their combat effectiveness.

Although these people were eliminated, their scores were quite good, and they could enter decent institutions of higher learning.

Only 120 people successfully passed the third round.

"The ranking after the third round will now be announced."

1. Lin Moyu, Total Points: 2105.

2. Zuo Mei, Total Points: 970.

3. Xia Xue, 770 points.

4. Young Guild Master Wang Zihao, 765 points.

67. Gao Yang, 302 points.

Lin Moyu saw Gao Yang's name in the rankings.

Ranked 67th, which was quite a good score.

Being able to persist until now meant it was a certainty that Gao Yang would get into Jiangning Academy.

At the same time, Lin Moyu understood Gao Yang.

This guy was also very proud to his core.

Having come this far, he definitely wouldn't give up easily.

Needless to say, he would definitely be in the fourth round.

Young Guild Master Wang Zihao was still ranked fourth; he knew there was no way to catch up in the third round just now.

"The fourth round is about to start; my chance is coming."

He gripped his battle saber tightly, his eyes flashing with burning fighting spirit.

The examiner's voice rang out again.

"We will now proceed with the fourth round of the exam."

"The difficulty of the fourth round will continue to increase, and the danger will rise accordingly."

"You may now choose to continue or give up."

"With your current scores, getting into one of the top 100 institutions in the empire is no longer a problem."

This time, no one chose to give up.

Those who could persist to this step were no cowards.

A pure white light shone down, falling upon everyone.

Everyone returned to their peak state.

Fatigue vanished, attributes were restored, and all skill cooldowns disappeared.

"Since that is the case, I respect your choice."

"The rules for the fourth round of the exam are as follows."

"Each of you will face 10 waves of monster attacks."

"Each wave will consist of 10 monsters, for a total of 100 monsters."

"The interval between each wave of monsters is 1 minute."

"Regardless of whether you have eliminated the previous wave of monsters, the next wave will appear after 1 minute."

"The last wave will be led by a Boss-level monster."

"Kill them all to pass."

"Each monster grants 10 points."

"If you can clear all waves, your final points for this round will be doubled, for a total of 2000 points."

After stating the rules, a light screen rose in front of everyone.

Behind the light screen, the first wave of 10 monsters had already appeared.

The monsters were just ordinary monsters, level 13 Wolf Orcs.

Among the 10 monsters, 9 were warrior-type monsters, and there was one mage-type standing at the very back.

With warriors coordinating with mages, the difficulty increased significantly.

Lin Moyu calculated in his heart; this difficulty had risen by more than just a little.

If one's ability to clear monsters was insufficient, they would be besieged by more and more monsters, ultimately leading to failure.

He already understood that this round was testing the ability to clear monsters quickly.

From basic combat power, to stamina, to one-on-one ability, and now to the ability to clear monsters quickly.

This covered the strengths and weaknesses of various classes.

This major exam really put a lot of effort into its design.

Several examiners already had smiles on their faces.

They stared at Lin Moyu one by one.

"This time, we'll see how you handle it."

"The best way to deal with a Summoner is not to destroy the summons, but to destroy the Summoner himself."

"I think Lin Moyu might be caught in a scramble."

"However, his summons are strong enough; completing this round shouldn't be a problem."

Ning Xuanfeng, who had been silent the whole time, finally spoke up, "I think this round of testing won't stump him."

Everyone looked at Ning Xuanfeng with slight surprise.

Ning Xuanfeng's statement carried seven parts of certainty, appearing very confident.

Although some examiners didn't think so, given the difference in status, they didn't refute him.

In any case, the facts would soon prove who was right and who was wrong.

Chapter 47: The Holy Swordsman Exerts Power, Activating Berserk Mode

The fourth round of testing officially began.

A third Skeleton Warrior appeared in front of Lin Moyu.

The 3 Skeletons rushed toward the level 13 monsters, taking one out with each slash.

Instant kills, without any suspense.

A flash of fire appeared in Lin Moyu's palm, and a flame landed on the head of the mage monster at the very back.

It was also an instant kill.

From the start of the test, less than three seconds had passed.

It was almost in the blink of an eye.

9 Wolf Orc warriors and 1 Wolf Orc mage had already been killed.

"This…"

"How does this kid have a third summon?"

"This little brat, why didn't he release it from the beginning? Why release it only now?"

"Stinky brat, why do you like hiding things so much?"

"Exactly, the stronger you are, the happier we are."

Ning Xuanfeng wore an expression that said, "As expected."

Lin Moyu curled his lips unconsciously; this was the so-called major exam? It was too unchallenging.

It wasn't even as exciting as the first time he entered the West Sea Mine Dungeon.

There wasn't a single surprise.

It made him feel sleepy now.

Unconsciously, he took out a sweet potato and started eating it slowly.

"Forget it, I'm not watching. Watching this kid is completely boring."

"Exactly, might as well watch someone else."

On Lin Moyu's side, as soon as the monsters came out, they were resolved in three seconds at most; it was indeed boring.

Watching others was much more interesting.

Xia Xue retreated continuously, stepping out a path of fire beneath her feet.

The Wolf Orcs, while pursuing Xia Xue, stepped on the flames and continuously suffered damage.

Flame Path!

This was a skill that Mages could only master at level 10; once used, it would form fire damage wherever it passed.

It was very effective when used here.

AOE attacks were a Mage's forte.

Although her level wasn't high enough yet, Xia Xue already possessed two AOE skills.

The other was Ice Rain, which had a slowing effect.

With the two combined, Xia Xue was quickly clearing out the Wolf Orc warriors.

Relatively speaking, Zuo Mei had a much harder time.

Assassins had strong burst power, rich combat techniques, and possessed many crowd control skills.

Whether performing assassinations or engaging in one-on-one combat, it was an excellent class.

The downside was that they were not good at group combat and had no AOE skills.

Therefore, Zuo Mei appeared somewhat weak here, forced to clear them one by one.

Young Guild Master Wang Zihao still maintained his wide-open, heavy-hitting combat style.

A huge two-handed sword danced, whistling through the air.

Regardless of who it was, their fights were very worth watching.
