"Next, the next one..."

He spoke again, his laughter unchanged, and the contest continued.

For the remaining survivors, the strongest has won and can leave the game with their badge at any time.

This means that you can only have a maximum of four badges out of five, making the competition more intense as the number of badges decreases.

The crowd exchanged glances, each seeing a hint of confidence in the other's eyes. Some had witnessed Xiao Linlin answering the three questions.

This doesn't seem to be too difficult.

His questions are tailored to each individual questioner, and are not overly difficult; there is always a possibility that the questioner can understand and answer them.

Xiao Linlin once said: It doesn't matter whether the answer is correct or not, what matters is how to satisfy Him with the answer.

There are no problems, and there are absolutely correct answers, but His questions cannot be dealt with perfunctorily or distorted.

How to strike this balance is something each respondent needs to assess for themselves.

Without needing to be randomly selected, new people quickly stepped forward and volunteered, "I'll answer!"

This was a strong man, his muscles bulging, extremely tall, and he looked even bigger than Su Lin.

"A new seeker of knowledge, I look forward to your wisdom."

He was smiling, and it seemed as if a gaze was emanating from the darkness, sizing up the man's size, before slowly posing the first question: "My question is..."

Ten minutes later.

After racking his brains, the man gritted his teeth and gave an answer, which was clearly a gamble.

Unfortunately, the answer was incorrect.

"It seems your muscles don't match your intelligence."

He smiled sarcastically. Having received a wise person like Xiao Linlin, the remaining survivors seemed less appealing.

But the challenges continue even under the rules.

Randomly selected, some volunteers stepped forward... Survivors answered questions one after another, some correctly, some incorrectly.

Time passed slowly, and Su Lin remained silent as he observed. Xiao Linlin beside him seemed lost in thought, her expression blank as if she were pondering something.

During a break in the competition, Su Lin quietly asked her, "Linlin, are you feeling unwell?"

"No, I'm just thinking about some things."

Xiao Linlin glanced at the status of the respondents. Some people had answered three questions wrong, but fortunately they had not died. The elimination in this competition did not involve life or death. Those who got all the questions wrong could leave the competition area.

Interestingly, He seemed regretful, as if bound by rules and forced to let the loser go.

"A contest of wits is not dangerous."

Xiao Linlin muttered to herself, whispering a reminder to Su Lin, "Brother, there's still plenty of time. You can try doing something else."

"good."

Su Lin nodded, understanding what Xiao Linlin meant, and silently closed his eyes to circulate his internal energy.

Soon, Su Lin was surprised to discover that this almost empty, dark depths were filled with the spiritual light of heaven and earth.

Although the content is not much and cannot compare to blessed lands, it is no different from the normal game world and can meet the basic cultivation needs.

Su Lin had thought about the reasons behind this, but had not found an answer, so he simply calmed down and took a good rest.

During this process, Sulin felt His gaze upon him. He knew what Sulin was doing, but did not stop him because it did not violate the rules.

Of course, it could also be due to the nature of the system.

Xiao Linlin then withdrew from her contemplation and observed the remaining survivors with great interest.

Most of the survivors had answered two questions; some answered two incorrectly, some answered one correctly, and only two people answered two questions correctly in a row.

Regardless of whether they answered the first two questions correctly or not, they still had to face the third, ultimate question. Even if they didn't answer correctly enough times, they had to keep answering until they had three correct answers before they could receive the reward.

In theory, the unluckiest guy would need to answer at least five questions to find out if he has won.

Undoubtedly, this was an extremely stressful situation, but fortunately, the first eliminated player proved the new rules, meaning that at least everyone doesn't need to worry about being eliminated and dying, which would result in failing to advance in the next match.

It was precisely because of this that the other survivors had even more courage to answer the questions.

No one wanted to waste time, since most of the survivors outside were still continuously acquiring badges to compete for the limited promotion slots.

One by one, people stepped forward to answer the third question. Xiao Linlin watched patiently, her gaze focused on the two outstanding performers.

Unfortunately, even though they were careful until the very end, they still answered all the questions incorrectly and did not survive the final question.

People kept getting eliminated and leaving the competition, turning around and walking back to the waiting area through the corridor.

Fewer and fewer people remained until the last unlucky guy answered five questions in a row and finally left the stage with regret, giving Xiao Linlin a resentful look as he left.

Xiao Linlin gave him a friendly smile, and the man nodded expressionlessly before turning and leaving.

"elder brother..."

Xiao Linlin raised her hand and gently tugged at Su Lin's sleeve: "It's over."

"Um."

Su Lin finished his practice and slowly opened his eyes.

He looked around and found that he and Xiao Linlin were the only ones left on the huge platform.

Looking up at the lights in the darkness, there were still five glittering lights; no one had taken the badges of wisdom.

Of course, this does not mean that the eliminated contestants cannot obtain Wisdom Badges through other competitions, nor does it mean that every Wisdom Badge is as powerful as the one here.

"Now, it's just us left."

He was still smiling, but with a hint of laziness, as if he were bored.
