Chapter 319 Assessment
There was a brief pause on Jie Ping's side, and then Hong Fu's voice rang out again: "Student Chen, your application has been accepted.
The exam will be held at 3:00 PM on June 5th at the dedicated exam venue on the 60th floor. The examiner will be Jiang Tian. Please arrive at the designated exam location on time. If you are late, you will be disqualified from the exam. Please make your decision carefully."
Because there will be an assessment tomorrow, in order to get a relatively high evaluation score, Chen Chuan did not do any overly strenuous training today. He just did some ordinary free-hand exercises after taking the medicine and practiced some breathing techniques to conserve his energy.
At 2:50 in the afternoon on the 5th, Chen Chuan changed into his school uniform, packed his necessary belongings, and took the elevator to the 60th floor, holding the Xuejun Knife.
After the elevator opened, I walked through a short corridor and entered the assessment area. I found that the entire floor was a training ground. Looking over, it seemed as if there was no end.
At this moment, the teachers and students in charge of the assessment were already at the door of the venue.
One of them was obviously the examiner, Jiang Tian. He was in his thirties, with long hair and a messy beard around his lips. The buttons on his collar were unbuttoned, and his hands were in his trouser pockets. His unruly look made him look more like an artist.
Not far away was an assistant teacher who was responsible for recording the assessments. The last one was a student who was about twenty years old. He should be the senior student who was responsible for competing against him.
After all, there is a big gap between teachers and students who have just enrolled. Although teachers can make better judgments, a competition without any suspense will affect their performance to a certain extent.
"Here you are." Teacher Jiang looked at him, and it seemed as if he was asking him if he had eaten.
"Hello, Teacher Jiang." Chen Chuan greeted.
The student looked at Chen Chuan and nodded to him in a friendly manner.
Chen Chuan also nodded politely.
The assistant teacher in charge of recording looked up at the two of them slightly, then lowered his head again, unconsciously poking his pen there. He was already thinking about finishing it quickly.
Because any student who is included in this kind of assessment has very limited skill levels, and there is really nothing to see.
Teacher Jiang then looked through Chen Chuan's records. "Oh, in just a few months, you've improved your grades from the bottom to the upper middle. This isn't a recent record. There wasn't a direct assessment at the time. Do you think you still have room for improvement? Well, let me see your performance later..."
Chen Chuan said: "Teacher Jiang, I'm ready."
The assistant teacher reminded him, "Student Chen, wait a moment. You're not the only one applying for the assessment this time. There's another student ahead of you."
At this moment, they heard the sound of the elevator door opening outside, and then a male student who was about half a head shorter than Chen Chuan walked in.
He walked up to the group with a bit of nervousness and said, "Hello, teachers and seniors. My name is Liang Xin."
Teacher Jiang said, "Although the time hasn't come yet, since you're here, let's get started. The sooner we finish grading, the sooner we can go back and rest."
The assistant teacher said, "You can use your own weapons, or the weapons on the weapon rack here. You should have read the specific test rules beforehand, so I won't remind you."
Liang Xin didn't bring any weapons when he came up. He walked to the side, picked up a three-meter-long gun, picked it up, and walked to the middle of the field and stood still.
The assistant teacher took a look and realized that it was quite rare to see students using such a large gun, as such weapons were not easy to carry.
Even with a telescopic and disassembly rod, you still need to pull and assemble it when fighting. If you don't have teammates to cover you, who will give you this opportunity? It's better to prepare two short sticks or pistols, or even two sections of three-section sticks.
Teacher Jiang then turned to the senior student and asked, "How is it, student?"
Student Guo said, "Teacher, no problem." He walked to the side and also brought over a big gun, but it was slightly shorter than the one in Student Liang's hand, only a little over two meters long.
The assistant teacher picked up the recording board and prepared to record. Although Hongfu could record the entire process, this kind of assessment had to be archived in paper form for cross-comparison.
How well the students perform in the assessment and how much they can give depends on the students themselves, but the scoring also depends on the examiner. If the examiner is a little strict or a little relaxed, there will be a big difference.
These two students were lucky enough to meet an examiner who was easy to talk to. As long as their performance was not too bad, they would pass.
After student Liang got the spear, the previous nervousness quickly subsided, and he became high-spirited and confident. After waiting for Teacher Jiang to announce the start, he immediately put the spear flat and aimed it at the student opposite him.
After a moment of eye contact, Student Liang took the lead and stabbed Student Guo with a gun. At this moment, Student Guo suddenly leaned forward to face the opponent, and then used the force of raising his body to rub the gun barrel of the opponent.
In an instant, a rolling force was transmitted into his body. Student Liang felt his hands go numb and he could no longer hold the spear, so it rolled out of his palm. When he realized something was wrong and wanted to hold it again, the spear in the student's hand had already pointed at his chest, forcing him to retreat.
At this moment, the student raised his foot and hooked the fallen spear in his hand. He then took a step back, straightened it and slammed it on the ground, saying, "Brother, there's no need to fight anymore."
This assessment mainly focuses on the skills of using weapons. Even the weapons have been knocked away, so of course there is no need to continue the competition.
Student Liang really didn't expect that the assessment would end in just one face-to-face meeting, and his face turned pale.
Chen Chuan witnessed the whole process from the side. On the surface, it seemed that Senior Guo had seized the opportunity very well, but in fact, he had predicted in advance where the opponent's first shot would be directed. It was not that his judgment was too good, but his initial position and gun posture invisibly induced the opponent to shoot at certain fixed places.
This is actually the gap between combat experience and combat wisdom. It was a bit unfair for Liang to lose. If it really came down to skills, the gap between the two sides would not be that big.
Student Liang seemed to have figured out why he lost at this time. He had an expression of unwillingness and dissatisfaction on his face. He felt that he was just careless for a moment. If he fought seriously, he would never be led astray by the opponent again and would definitely be able to show his skills.
Teacher Jiang then said, "Okay, Liang, if you're not satisfied, you'll have another chance to take the test later, but you'll have to wait until Chen's test is finished."
After hearing what he said, student Liang obediently stepped aside. Although he had a second chance, the evaluation points would definitely not be as high as the first time, but it was better than nothing.
The assistant teacher then looked at Chen Chuan and said, "Student Chen, it's your turn."
Chen Chuan looked at the passing student and said, "Senior, why don't you take a break first?"
The student nodded and went to the side to adjust his breathing. Although he only made one move, the force he just used actually concentrated all the strength of his body. Moreover, if he could defeat the student who was assessing him in a short time, he could also increase his evaluation points. He needed to face his opponent in a better state.
Two minutes later, he finished adjusting and walked to the center of the field, still carrying his spear. He nodded to Chen Chuan and said, "Junior, I'm ready."
Chen Chuan drew his sword and came to the opposite side of him, holding the sword in both hands in front of him, with the tip of the sword pointing at the center line of the man.
The student spread his legs, lowered his waist, held the butt of the gun with one hand, leaving only the tip of the gun outside his hand, and held the middle and back part with the other hand, pointing it diagonally at Chen Chuan.
After the two men confronted each other for a moment, Senior Guo tried to attack first, turning his waist and thrusting his spear forward.
Chen Chuan, however, did not move at all. When the spear was about to reach his body, he still did not make any move. The student frowned slightly, but he would not be scared. The spear could change from real to fake, but now he judged that Chen Chuan had no way to avoid it, so he pointed it at him.
However, Chen Chuan quickly turned sideways at this time and avoided the tip of the spear in an impossible way. His body moved forward along the spear, and at the same time, his long sword stuck to the spear shaft and swept towards the opponent's gun hand!
At this time, the student only needs to use the strength of his waist and abdomen to block the gun outwards to block the knife. If the strength is enough, even Chen Chuan can be swept away.
However, at this moment he suddenly discovered that a heavy and sticky force was sticking to the spear, and he couldn't shake it off for a while. It was obvious that he was not strong enough to withstand the opponent's strength. In the end, he had no choice but to let go and abandon the spear.
But he was not panicked. He would never be like student Liang who just dropped his gun and was defeated by his opponent. There was a move in the gun technique he learned called the Throwing and Catching Style, which meant that after dropping the gun, he could catch it again and kill the opponent.
Normally, one hand only needs to grab a small part of the gun's tail with the fingers to use the strength to twist it again, but now Chen Chuan's long sword is moving forward steadily and quickly, leaving him no chance, so he can only dodge the long sword that is stabbing at him.
As he turned around, he lifted up his heel and brought the spear that had already fallen to the bottom back up. Now he only needed to twist his body, hold the spear with both hands, and turn around to stab his opponent with the tip of the spear.
The teacher who was recording over there saw his action and couldn't help but secretly exclaimed "good". This move of "dragon tail swinging" was just right, avoiding the enemy and counterattacking the opponent at the same time.
When Chen Chuan spun around to dodge, the force of the sword that he had thrust forward seemed to have disappeared, and he needed to continue to connect and exert force. This was also the main reason why the student dared to make the next move.
However, at this moment, under the pull of the alienated tissue in his body, his body was pushed forward without interruption, like flowing clouds and water.
He stepped forward with his left foot, raised his left hand and pressed the back of the knife forward. The next moment, a flash of cold light was already on the side of the neck of the student who had not yet turned completely around. At this time, the spear in the latter's hand had only turned halfway, and after feeling the chill on his neck, his movement suddenly froze there.
