Principal of Kyoto: "In this round of the competition, there were a total of 1,998 participants, and 687 of them advanced by achieving a passing score of 30."
"The advancing contestants can go back and get some rest. The third round of the competition will begin at 6 p.m. tonight."
"Oh, by the way, players who achieve an excellent score of 60 will receive some cultivation resources as a reward from the official team. They will be sent to you via the system mailbox shortly."
"Now, everyone disperse."
After the disbandment was announced, all the students left one after another.
Many people sighed and lamented; they were all contestants eliminated in this round.
Lin Nai's score in this round is all question marks, but even so, based on the kill points from the previous round, he is still qualified to advance.
As they were leaving, several referees approached Linna: "Linna, please wait a moment."
Lin Nai stopped and looked at the referee in the lead. After a moment of contemplation, he said, "I remember you. You are the level 9 man in black who appeared in my dream."
Level 9 Referee: "...It's me."
Linna: "Is there something you need?"
Level 9 Referee: "There were some unusual issues with your performance in the last round. Our event organizers need to ask you about some things. Please cooperate."
Linnaeus: "Okay."
Follow the Level 9 man in black to the backstage surveillance room of the competition group.
Linnaeus met many referees, as well as many school principals and administrators here.
Director Pang and Liu He are also here.
Liu He winked at Lin Nai as a greeting.
The chief judge, his face scarred, sat down in front of Linnaeus: "Linnaeus, do you remember what happened in the Death Illusion last night?"
“Hmm…” Lin Nai tilted her head and thought for a moment: “A few men in black broke into my room, and I fought with them.”
Then he pointed to the Level 9 referee: "Oh, I remember, it's those guys."
The Level 9 referee and the several Level 8 referees behind him: "..."
The chief referee continued to stare at him: "And then?"
Linna shook her head: "I don't remember."
The chief referee was surprised: "You don't remember? What did you do? You don't even remember?"
"I remember being stabbed through the heart with long knives by you referees."
Lin Nai looked at them, puzzled: "Didn't you create this illusion? You're asking me if I'm going to enter it to kill you?"
"......"
"I should be asking you that too, what happened next?"
"......"
The chief referee remained silent, unsure of what to say.
Please try your best to recall.
"Hmm... I really can't remember."
The chief referee opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something.
At this moment, a transparent message box popped up in his system.
It was sent by Professor Ji.
[Professor Ji: Never mind, no need to ask further.]
The chief referee nodded and then said to Linna, "Alright, Linna, you can go back now."
Linnaeus: "What about my score in this round?"
Chief Referee: "It doesn't matter. Your score in the last round was already enough to pass this round directly."
Linna: "Won't the points from this round affect the later matches?"
Chief Referee: "Don't worry, this round is not for points, just for performance score. The score from this round will not be used in the following rounds."
Lin Nai: "What about the 60 points of cultivation resources as a reward? How do you calculate that?"
Chief Referee: "...We will calculate based on your score of 60 points, and you will also receive a set of cultivation resources."
Linnaeus nodded.
Then he was relieved.
To be honest, he didn't actually lack cultivation resources.
He still hasn't used up all the cultivation resources he plundered from those bandits from another realm last time.
But why not take advantage of any extra reward?
......
One night passed.
The sky gradually brightened.
Linna didn't wake up until noon.
After waking up, he kept thinking about what had happened in the death illusion.
What happened after that?
Why did everyone else experience twenty-five death scenarios, while I got stuck on the first one?
Linnaeus pondered for a long time but couldn't come up with a solution.
It's a real shame, though.
Others faced twenty-five different life-threatening crises.
Although those athletes appeared to have suffered significant psychological trauma after experiencing twenty-five deaths.
Just like the first time you kill someone, it takes many days to recover.
But at least they all went through it.
Linna, on the other hand, was in a state of "skipping class".
Lin Nai thought for a moment; there was still an afternoon before the third round of the competition that evening.
He opened the system panel and found Night.
[Lin Nai: Instructor Wan'er, could you come to my room for a moment?]
[Night Child: ......]
[Night: What's wrong? (cautiously)]
[Linnai: Of course, I have something to ask you, Instructor.]
[Night Child: Oh... okay then...]
After a while, night fell.
Linna pulled the girl into the room and closed the door.
The girl asked curiously, "Brother Linnai, I heard that you had already played the second round of the competition last night?"
"Hmm..." Lin Nai: "But some unexpected things happened."
Night tilted her head: "What accident?"
