Chapter 214 Closed Beta Players



The battle against the beast tide began after learning that the enemy had a primordial beast in command.

All the tactics Su Yu learned from textbooks for dealing with the beast tide became ineffective.

In many cases, those ingrained thought patterns even lead him to make fatal judgments.

After a day and a night of defense, not a single person survived, and the city was officially declared defeated.

The moment his chest was pierced by the primal beast's claw, he felt as if he were truly facing death.

Zhuge Yun did not immediately ask what had happened.

Su Yu closed his eyes and began to review all the information from the past day and night.

Several tens of minutes later, he opened his eyes again.

"What time is it now?" he asked first.

Zhuge Yun smiled and said, "One hour."

Su Yu looked slightly surprised!

What happens in the beast tide world, a full day and night, is less than an hour in the outside world?

He was absolutely certain that every second in that world had truly passed.

He looked at Zhuge Yun.

Zhuge Yun smiled but remained silent.

He then turned his gaze to the pure white helmet.

The teacher said this helmet is worth over 100,000 academic credits.

In retrospect, its value is definitely more than 100,000 credits.

"You are the only one on the entire planet who has this helmet."

"You can think of it as an upcoming game."

"And you are the first beta tester of this game."

"This game has nine levels. Only by completing all nine levels can you be qualified to access the Wasteland Battlefield."

"Your performance in the game will be fed back to me in real time."

“After each monthly challenge day, I will go through a debriefing session with you.”

"Playing games for an hour every day can help you relax from your stressful training life," Zhuge Yun said with a smile.

Su Yu was speechless.

Witnessing a monster breach the city every day, being killed by a monster every day, and you're telling me this is relaxation?

Despite his inner grumbling, Su Yu still stood up and bowed, saying, "Thank you for the gift, Teacher."

Zhuge Yun waved his hand: "You don't need to thank me. It was your ancestor who heard you didn't have enough time and got you one of these things."

"Grandmaster?"

"That is Grandmaster Ji Qing."

Seeing the expression on someone's face, Zhuge Yun said calmly, "Don't think that just because you're of a lower generation, there are no more than two hands' worth of tactical division commanders in the country with a higher seniority than you."

Su Yu immediately straightened his chest.

Zhuge Yun was speechless.

Standing to the side, Wu Qingmei listened with eyes full of envy and longing.

Su Yu then noticed that she had woken up and apologized, "Senior Sister, I'm sorry, I didn't control myself just now."

Wu Qingmei shook her head: "No, I should be the one apologizing to you."

The next moment, she realized what was happening.

“But junior brother, you are clearly still on the path of a tactician, yet you deliberately agreed to my bet.”

"Junior brother, are you trying to get something for nothing again?"

Su Yu remained unfazed when her little scheme was exposed on the spot: "Senior sister, we're all tacticians, you know what I mean."

Wu Qingmei was speechless. This junior brother... ah, bah, in terms of seniority, he was a senior uncle.

This kid not only has the heart of a tactician, but even his face is a tactician's standard feature.

"A bet is a bet. If you ever need anything in the future, just call me."

Su Yu smiled and said, "Since you know that I was going to study tactics anyway, you don't need to take the bet seriously."

He looked at Zhuge Yun and asked curiously, "Teacher, in the game, those primal beasts are already able to control beast tides to carry out basic tactical attacks."

"Has it really come to this point in reality?" He asked with a hint of worry on his face.

Zhuge Yun's expression also became more serious, and he said earnestly, "The current alien beasts are definitely capable of launching such a war."

"Once they have more mid-grade intelligent beasts, I'm afraid China will be ushering in an era of rampant beast tides."

"This is also why all the sophomores to seniors in our country started school early."

"You should have realized in the game that our past experience in dealing with beast tides is now becoming a hindrance."

"Your senior classmates will undergo another month of training before heading to various cities in China."

Su Yu's expression shifted slightly: "If they encounter a beast tide..."

"That's when we'll put our knowledge to use!" Wu Qingmei said fearlessly.

Soon, Zhuge Yun and Wu Qingmei left together.

After seeing the two off, Song Qinghuan said earnestly, "Su Yu, I'm going back to cultivate now!"

The fact that the beast tide had become intelligent was like a sword hanging over my heart.

Zhuge Yun's arrival made her even more aware of the sword's sharpness.

The initial excitement of entering university quickly dissipated.

...

The next morning.

After picking up Qiao Qiao, the five of them arrived at the classroom on time.

The 228-day shift of 30 people quickly all arrived.

Yesterday, Su Yu took on five opponents at the martial arts academy. Today, when the others arrived at class, they looked at him with even more respect.

A short while later, Yang Xiu stepped forward, carrying a long spear.

He glanced at everyone and smiled: "Not bad, at least you know you can't skip the first class."

"Enough with the small talk, let's get to today's topic—guns."

The students immediately perked up.

"I'm not going to talk to you about things like 'ten years of sword training, a lifetime of spear training' anymore."

"As a master of the art of the spear, in my eyes the spear is definitely superior to other weapons."

"The teachers who teach you later will also have their own interpretations."

"You need to make your own judgments about these things."

As he spoke, Yang Xiu casually thrust out his spear, and the sound of it cutting through the air rang out.

He brandished his spear and performed a very basic spear technique on the arena.

There was no martial arts technique, nor any fluctuation of qi and blood.

A seemingly ordinary set of marksmanship, yet it left everyone wide-eyed in astonishment.

“Some of my classmates have already mastered advanced martial arts techniques involving marksmanship.”

Yang Xiu looked over.

Su Yu and Song Qinghuan sat up straight.

"Can my basic spear technique break your spear martial arts?"

They both nodded at the same time.

He continued, "Everyone in our class should have learned the basics of marksmanship."

"Whether it's basic spear techniques or basic sword techniques, the difference between them and martial arts lies in the use of bones, meridians, and qi and blood."

"A superior martial art can make your blood and qi burst forth with many times the power."

"Basic marksmanship is the foundation for you to master martial arts."

"When your basic marksmanship reaches the level of a grandmaster, and your spear strikes are intentional."

"Any spear technique or martial art in the world is no problem for you."

"Of course, it's better to be a master than a jack of all trades! If you can master a single spear technique to the level of a master, that is, the level of great achievement."

"Then one can achieve the effect of blood and qi leaving the body, which is barely attainable by a peak third-grade martial artist, even at the first-grade martial artist level."

As he spoke, Yang Xiu raised his gun again.

The spear flashed like a dragon, its gleam blinding.

What he was displaying at that moment was clearly the Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix Spear technique.

When he used the Phoenix Three Nods technique, a phoenix actually appeared in the classroom, spreading its wings, and there was a faint sound of a phoenix calling out.

At this moment, in Su Yu's eyes, Yang Xiu was a plump white sheep.
