After a pause, Duan Qingxi continued, "Even if you can't enter the academy, I won't try to get you in. This is because of your ability. If you are really embarrassed by others, I can only stand up for you. Do you understand?"
Yun Ting looked depressed. In fact, he knew that Duan Qingxi's words made sense, but he still felt a little uncomfortable.
Duan Qingxi sighed upon seeing this, patted his shoulder and said, "Don't worry, you won't necessarily face very powerful monsters. Didn't Ye Ling say that they are all low-level monsters. No matter how powerful they are, they won't be stronger than mid-level monsters. If they can't handle them, then I really don't recommend them to enter the academy."
What if I get tricked by someone and encounter a mid- to high-level monster again in the future? Wouldn't that mean I can only wait for death?
Yun Ting nodded and said, "You're right, maybe I was too anxious."
However, they all underestimated the difficulty this time.
The contestants also went forward in order. Because it was a contest with monsters, they could only enter the enclosure. The enclosure was like a huge cage. The entrance for the examinees was also the exit, and there was only one. There were nine entrances for monsters, and the doors had serial numbers written on them. There was also another door which was the exit. Presumably, that was the exit where the monsters would be driven back after being defeated.
After the candidates enter, someone will release a monster from one of the entrances. The monster behind the door with the number drawn will be released.
The first candidate to come on stage drew number 4, so as soon as he entered, door number 4 was opened and a low-level magical beast was released.
The other candidates who also drew number 4 suddenly became nervous and stared at the candidate and the low-level monster intently.
Ye Ling whispered to Duan Qingxi and Yun Ting, "Actually, the so-called competition doesn't necessarily require defeating the monster. After all, we're all untrained candidates, and we haven't learned much. Defeating the monster would be best, but as long as we can hold out for an incense stick of time without being defeated by the monster, we'll be considered the winner."
Hearing this, Yun Ting's eyes lit up and he said to them, "Then this shouldn't be difficult for you. Even if it's a powerful low-level monster, it's still a low-level monster after all. Just keep running away and avoid being bitten by it!"
Ye Ling also smiled slightly and said, "That's what I thought."
Otherwise, he wouldn't be so calm.
They were all ranked relatively late, so it was their turn only after those in front of them had almost finished.
Many of the candidates ahead have been eliminated, and only about ten can stand up to the monsters, most of whom are from aristocratic families.
They already had good resources thanks to the help of their family, and the monsters they drew were not very powerful, so it was not difficult for them to deal with them. Some people could even kill the monsters in one go.
Ye Ling counted and said to Duan Qingxi and the others, "Wait a little longer, there are only two more people left before it's our turn..."
Just as they finished speaking, they realized that the person coming on stage was actually a teenager in a wheelchair.
It turned out to be Ji Yichen!
Yun Ting was shocked and said, "Ji Yichen is actually participating in the competition?! Isn't he the legitimate son of the Suzaku family? Logically, he should be able to enter the academy directly!"
Ye Ling was also a little surprised, but in fact everyone understood why he wanted to participate in this competition. He simply didn't want to rely on the protection of his family.
Moreover, no one should know that he came here to participate in the competition, because the monster he drew is the most powerful of all the monsters that have appeared so far.
Although their relationship with Ji Yichen was just average and they didn't have much friendship, everyone was very nervous and cheered for him in their hearts!
Ji Yichen seemed to have noticed their gazes, so he turned and looked in their direction, then slightly raised the corners of his mouth and nodded as a greeting.
Yun Ting and the others were quite excited. Although Ji Yichen was also from one of the four major families, he had a very gentle temperament and seemed very easy to talk to, which was quite rare.
However, they all underestimated Ji Yichen. Even though he was sitting in a wheelchair, the monster was many times bigger than him, but he was not afraid at all. When the monster roared and rushed towards him, he was still sitting safely in the wheelchair.
But the candidates who were watching were so frightened that their faces turned pale, as if they could see him being swallowed by the monster in the next second!
Some girls couldn't help but close their eyes and screamed softly.
but……
The cruel scene did not happen. Ji Yichen was seen sitting in the wheelchair, with his right hand, which was originally on the armrest, raised. A thin silver thread flew out from his cuff, like the most powerful and terrifying hidden weapon, and it actually pierced the throat of the monster directly!
With a "puff", a column of blood spurted out of the monster's throat!
But the monster did not die because of this. It could still move its feet. But then, the thread wrapped around and turned back again to pierce the monster's throat!
This time, the silver thread was not retracted, but wrapped around the huge body of the monster. Ji Yichen retracted his hand slightly, and the monster was entangled by the silver thread and fell directly to the ground.
With a loud "bang", the monster could only lie on the ground like a fish on the chopping board, struggling hard and watching itself bleed to death.
“Wow—”
This fight is so exciting!
All the candidates present stood up excitedly, and even the tutors' eyes widened and they quickly stood up.
So awesome!
It only took two or three moves to kill the monster, and it was still sitting in a wheelchair!
He is worthy of being the legitimate son of the Suzaku family!
It seems that rumors cannot be fully trusted!
Ji Yichen calmly retracted his silver thread, as if he was not the one who easily killed the monster.
Yun Ting couldn't help but say: "This Ji Yichen... is so amazing!"
Duan Qingxi nodded and said, "Yes, with his skills, he may be able to deal with high-level monsters!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Ling and the others looked at Ji Yichen with even more fiery eyes.
In this continent, no matter who you are, you all have a mysterious admiration for the strong. What's more, Ji Yichen is still young but has such talent and ability. He will become a great man in the future!
Ji Yichen had already left the competition arena, and the next person to come on stage was a girl, but she failed the test and unfortunately left the stage.
After that, only Duan Qingxi and a few others were left.
Although he didn't take these low-level monsters seriously, Duan Qingxi was still quite nervous.
The first one to go on stage was Yun Ting. After he came on stage, Yun Ting deliberately looked up in the direction of Duan Qingxi and the others. Duan Qingxi and the others also made a cheering gesture to him.
