Just as Linna was feeling puzzled, a hand suddenly patted his shoulder.
Turning around, I saw that Meng Feifei's face was pale and her voice was weak: "Brother Nai, quick, help me up..." Her legs were shaking, as if she couldn't stand up at all.
Linna asked in surprise, "What's wrong with you?"
"What else could it be? It's all because of the second round of matches last night..."
Meng Feifei said with a bitter face, "The competition organizers are really devils! Twenty-five scenes! A full twenty-five!"
"Those bastards killed us twenty-five times in different ways! And each time they died a more gruesome death than the last!"
"Especially on the twentieth time, when I was eaten by the lava monster, I watched helplessly as my body was melted away bit by bit by that monster's magma stomach fluid... It was just too inhuman..."
"And the organizers actually ambushed us while we were asleep, and they didn't even let us wear our underwear! How despicable! They have no sportsmanship!"
"..." Lin Nai was stunned, her face full of confusion: "A competition??"
What competition?
What do you mean by dying twenty-five times?
Why can't he understand anything?
"?" Meng Feifei asked suspiciously, "Brother Nai, why do you look perfectly fine?"
Linna did not respond and remained silent.
He thought about it carefully.
Could it be that what happened last night wasn't a dream?
Last night, the seven men in black suddenly broke into his room and attacked him, resulting in a fight.
He was eventually killed by the men in black working together.
Later, it seemed that a continuous stream of divine power was gushing out from the divine core within his body.
I can't remember anything after that...
Lin Nai thought to himself, "That's not right. It seems that everyone else has experienced twenty-five death scenarios, so why have I only experienced one?"
After a while, all the students on the playground gathered.
However, at a glance, apart from Lin Nai wearing slippers and shorts and yawning from time to time, looking like she hadn't had enough sleep, the others didn't seem to be in good condition.
Some students are still vomiting there.
After a while, the lights in the playground came on.
The president of Kyoto University walked out of the podium, picked up the microphone, and looked at the students below: "I suppose most of the contestants have already guessed it."
"That's right, the nightmare you experienced last night is the topic of the second round of the competition."
"Hmm, it seems that everything that happened last night has left a deep impression on most of you."
"..." The students below all cast rather resentful glances at the platform.
The principal of Kyoto continued, "You are all newcomers. Among you, many may be exceptionally talented, and some may even possess rare sequence abilities. After all, you were selected from all over the country, and your future is limitless."
"However, as newcomers, you all share a common weakness: you have never experienced what death is like."
"You haven't experienced interdimensional wars, haven't been pierced through the heart by the venomous sting of a demonic spider, haven't felt what it's like to be torn in two by a monster and then forcibly brought back to life by a high-level healer, and haven't crawled out of a pile of corpses..."
"So for you, death may be the most unfamiliar and the most terrifying thing."
"When faced with a life-or-death race, most living beings will unleash unprecedented potential—of course, there are also some who will not unleash their potential but will be terrified."
"But similarly, because you have never experienced such a life-or-death moment before, while your physical potential is unleashed, your judgment is far worse than usual. To put it simply, you panic."
"The purpose of this competition is to ensure that you can remain calm even when facing life-or-death moments in the future."
The principal of Kyoto University raised his hand and snapped his fingers.
The main screen on the playground lit up.
The scores for each contestant in the second round are listed above.
Lin Nai, Meng Feifei, and the others looked up.
Each contestant's score is determined by their performance in twenty-five scenarios.
The scoring criteria are not just based on how long the contestants survived in the scenario.
It also calculates the changes in the players' mindset in different scenarios.
Principal Kyoto said, "The system will calculate your survival score + mentality score + your points from the previous round to calculate your total score."
"A score of 30 is considered passing. For those who score below 30, unfortunately, your journey in this National Freshman Competition ends here."
Lin Nai glanced at the points leaderboard.
The scoring system for this round is 100 points, but most people score less than 20 points in this second round!
I still need to rely on the kill points from the previous battle royale mode to barely pass the 30-point mark!
Many people even scored 0 points in this round!
Many people couldn't help but exclaim in amazement when they saw the winner of this round of competition.
First place, Bai Liao, 35+40+99, 174 points!
99 points was his kill score in the previous round.
Even so, he still managed to score 35 points and 40 rebounds, for a total of 75 points in this round!
Judging solely from the results of this round, it's almost a complete collapse!
Mu Xun, who came in second place, only scored 30 points, 18 rebounds, and 48 points!
Bai Liao chewed a piece of gum casually, a cold smile playing on his lips.
For a hitman like him who had completed many jobs, such death trials were commonplace.
He understood the fragility of life better than anyone else, and dared to face life and death head-on.
Meng Feifei looked at her score: "23 + 7 + 17... 47 points, hehe, not bad, I passed..."
"..." Lin Nai stood silently beside the screen.
"Nai-ge, what's wrong?" Meng Feifei asked, then tried to find Lin Nai's name on the screen.
At first, Meng Feifei thought Lin Nai would definitely be among the top few.
However, a quick glance at the top 50 did not reveal Lin Nai's name.
Finally, in the last column, I saw Linnaeus's name.
Linnaeus, ? +? +35\u003d?, Total score: ? ? ?
Meng Feifei: "???"
Meng Feifei was a little confused.
"Nai...Nai-ge, why is your score a question mark?"
Linnaeus shrugged and spread his hands: "I'd like to know too."
