Xu Yuehuai looked at the two black bears in front of him and assessed the difference in their strength. The black bears realized that their roars had failed to frighten Xu Yuehuai, who trembled and left. Enraged, they charged at Xu Yuehuai.
Xu Yuehuai lightly touched the ground with her toes, and with the help of spiritual power, she soared into the air and leaped behind the two black bears, right where they had been sleeping.
However, as soon as she arrived, Xu Yuehuai discovered something unusual about the open space behind it. There was a dark cave behind it, and outside the cave were countless complex ancient secret techniques that firmly sealed the entrance.
Xu Yuehuai's intuition told her that something was wrong and she needed to leave immediately.
"I think Xu Yuehuai is nothing special. He thinks he's so strong, but when he came to the depths of the forest, he turned out to be nothing. He turned around and ran away when he encountered danger." This assessment is public. In addition to the elders and others in the academy, those who were eliminated in the first round can also see it.
Many people had long been dissatisfied with Xu Yuehuai. She was powerful, but she did not come from a sect, which made many wealthy families present resentful.
"She's asking for it, so let's just ignore her. I hate seeing people like her who are courting death!" Everyone was waiting to see Xu Yuehuai make a fool of herself.
But something unexpected happened.
As Xu Yuehuai was about to turn and leave, she was stopped by two black bears. She knew that black bears that had evolved to this level had all gained intelligence, but she didn't know if this was the case in this illusion.
"I didn't mean to trespass, please let me leave." Xu Yuehuai withdrew her spiritual power and tried to befriend the two black bears.
Although she is not a kind person, she would not kill innocent people indiscriminately, especially not spirit beasts that have already gained sentience.
However, the black bears ignored Xu Yuehuai's overtures, roared at her, and then surrounded her from the front and back, launching an attack.
Xu Yuehuai summoned the silver sword, unleashed a burst of spiritual energy, and murmured "Eclipse Moon Sword." At the same time, the two black bears sensed an unprecedentedly powerful spiritual energy approaching them.
The two creatures, unable to dodge in time, were struck and tumbled backward, crashing into the cave's protective barrier. The entire illusion trembled slightly. Xu Yuehuai's expression darkened slightly.
She quickly dealt with the two black bears, and her points instantly increased to 1,550!
"What's going on?! How could a black bear be worth 500 points if it was taken care of so easily?! Is there something wrong with the token?" When everyone saw Xu Yuehuai easily reach first place on the leaderboard and exceed the task requirements, the smiles on their faces finally disappeared.
The five deans all came when they heard that there were promising talents this year, and they have all arrived at the scene. Dean Zhong looked at Xu Yuehuai on the big screen. He defeated the black bear in just two moves. How come he had never heard of such a person before!
"What do you think?" Dean Zhong couldn't see anything amiss.
If Xu Yuehuai did indeed cheat using other illegal methods, the college will certainly not tolerate it.
Dean Duan shook his head and said, "I've been watching here for a while and haven't found anything unusual. It seems there are quite a few dark horses among this year's freshmen."
In the vast leaderboard, Xu Yuehuai is in first place by a huge margin, leaving the second place with more than a thousand points.
After dealing with the two black bears, Xu Yuehuai planned to leave immediately, as she had already achieved her goal.
However, the next second, a huge suction force pulled her into the cave.
Those outside couldn't see the cave behind the small hill; they only noticed that Xu Yuehuai's figure suddenly began to twist.
The photo-recording stone switched to another scene in the next second, and everyone whispered that they still wanted to see Xu Yuehuai and what she was going to do next.
Several deans clearly noticed that Xu Yuehuai was acting strangely in the last scene. Dean Fu Jia looked at Dean Guo's position, and the two exchanged a glance. Dean Guo's head shook slightly, swaying gently from side to side.
The people on the screen at this moment are Shi Zhiyu and Ji Yuanchi.
The two were surrounded by about ten people. "You two are nothing but a bunch of idiots. You'd better hand over your points obediently, and we might let you go!"
The boy in the lead had red hair, was arrogant and domineering, and spoke in a haughty tone.
Shi Zhi remained expressionless, still holding a silver sword similar to Xu Yuehuai's. If one did not look closely, the two silver swords would appear to be exactly the same!
Ji Yuanchi looked at everyone expressionlessly, as if she were looking at some clown. "Are you coming at us all at once or one by one?"
The red-haired youth sneered and said, "You're simply overestimating yourselves! Since you're courting death, don't blame us for being impolite!"
As he spoke, the red-haired boy led a group of people to attack Shi Zhiyu and Ji Yuanchi.
"Isn't this second young master of the Fu family a bit unreasonable? Bullying the weak with numbers like this, I used to think the Fu family was a respectable and righteous family!"
"You don't know this, but the Fu family and the second young master of the Fu family are not comparable. The people of the Fu family are noble and virtuous, but this second young master of the Fu family is a complete playboy. He does one bad thing after another, but he happens to be quite talented. I don't know how the Fu family raised such a child."
The crowd pointed and whispered about the red-haired boy's actions, and many people felt it was a pity that Shi Zhiyu and Ji Yuanchi had failed in the second round. "Their strength must be quite good. They were two of the first three to reach the top!"
"Tch, he's just a bit faster, what's there to be proud of!" Some people disagreed and began to slander Shi Zhiyu and Ji Yuanchi.
However, the scene that unfolded the next second shocked everyone present. "Holy crap! Is this real? Those two guys took down a whole group of people!"
"Such strength is terrifying!"
After Shi Zhiyu and Ji Yuanchi defeated everyone, they took all their tokens.
The red-haired boy's eyes were sinister, and he was very dissatisfied with this. "After you've transferred the points, hurry up and give me back the token!"
The red-haired youth was furious and shouted at Shi Zhiyu. He had come charging in with great momentum, but ended up slinking away, which made him feel very embarrassed!
Suddenly, the surrounding scenery changed, and the red-haired boy and his group appeared directly on the grand arena of the assessment. Their appearance here meant that not only were the points in their tokens gone, but their tokens had also been crushed.
"My god, which two people are so tough? They just sent Young Master Fu out like that. Tsk tsk tsk, they're probably in big trouble when they get out!"
"Who says otherwise? I've never heard of Shi Zhiyu in Qingcheng. If Young Master Fu doesn't dare to touch Miss Pu, does he not dare to touch Shi Zhiyu?" There were many opinions, but the person involved didn't listen to more than a few words, turned around, stepped off the stage, and left Qingcheng Academy.
