Although he said that he didn't care, Shi Yu still felt a little sad after seeing his own highlights.

"At that time... why didn't I prepare more fully?"

Until now, Shi Yu still stubbornly believes that their cooperation is quite cool.

Riding a sword to kill beasts, isn't this cooler than taming beasts to fight?

But the problem is that his clothes and his behavior are totally out of place.

Riding a panda, wearing a panda short-sleeved shirt, holding a wooden sword to fight the enemy, so it looks a bit weird.

Now what Shi Yu wants most is not to delete the video, but to regret not wearing some strange clothes at that time.

If he wore some strange clothes like other examinees, maybe the sense of incongruity would not be so high now.

"Learn from this lesson, and pay attention next time."

Shi Yu turned off his phone, found a deserted place, and entered the Relics Orb alone.

At the moment, he just wanted to numb his brain by adding points to enter a weak state, and then hold on as soon as possible until the game starts, starts...

It was agreed not to add points, but now Shi Yu didn't want to go anywhere.

...

Ancient Capital Arena.

Although the survival assessment highlights just played are very interesting and there are many things worth analyzing, the most important thing at the moment is the assessment.

As the assessment time is coming, battles have already started in various parts of the venue.

For a while, the sound of fighting in the huge venue was earth-shaking, and the roar of pets continued.

"Roar!!!————"

"Ah!!————"

In any arena, you can see super-class creatures of excellent races fighting each other.

At each arena, examiners stood solemnly on one side. Among these new professionals, only a few can control the battle situation. In most cases, the examiners and referees have to judge the victory or defeat.

"Excuse me, can I interview you?"

After a candidate left the examination area, he was immediately pestered by the media.

All major media began to look for candidates for interviews.

Only one reporter team walked pessimistically in the audience seats, looking for something.

"No, no, it seems that Shi Yu didn't come."

After the survival trial was over, the female reporter and the photographer who interviewed Shi Yu were extremely regretful.

"Cut this part out." Thinking of her own words, the female reporter wanted to slap herself.

How could they know that a random passerby would be the super popular candidate in the future——

"Ahhh——"

Not only them, but many foundations and even other top universities are currently looking for Shi Yu.

Although Shi Yu has been internally selected to enter the Archaeology Department of Ancient Capital University, who knows if you don't try to poach people.

Everyone is an adult, and there is only one reason why they can't be poached, the treatment is not in place.

At present, the 16 seed candidates are the focus of poaching by major forces.

Of course, the remaining 700+ candidates are also targets that cannot be missed.

On the first day, the ranking assessment was in full swing.

In a remote corner not far from the arena, inside the relic bead, Shi Yu quietly added points and recuperated.

On the second day, the ranking battle reached its most intense moment.

Shi Yu still lay down and added points and recuperated.

On the third day, excluding the seed candidates, the top 16 of the ranking battle were finally announced.

Shi Yu completed the point addition and ended his recuperation.

He was like a secluded monk isolated from the outside world, only occasionally checking the progress of the ranking battle on his mobile phone when he went out for dinner. As for his own news, Shi Yu didn't even click on it.

"Okay..."

Shi Yu browsed the information of the advanced candidates and the seed candidates.

There are 32 people in total, and it seems that 30 of them have pets of their own race?

There was only him and a worm master named Miao Dongdong, and both of their pets were extraordinary species.

However, although Miao Dongdong's pet was an extraordinary species, it parasitized the corpse of a monarch species creature, and was also a trick.

After carefully reading the currently known information, Shi Yu began to make the final preparations.

After three days, Eleven had not changed much, but the changes in the insects were not small.

[Name]: Green Cottonworm

[Growth Level]: Extraordinary

[Skills]: Insect Silk (MAX), Absolute Sleep (Mastery), Virtual Illusion (Mastery +4), Fear/False Dragon Power (Proficient), Super Vision (Proficient), High-Speed ​​Healing (Proficient)

Shi Yu also taught it super vision and high-speed healing skills.

High-speed healing and super vision are both mid-level skills. With supplements, teaching them is not stressful, unlike high-level skills.

During the ranking battle, due to the restrictions of the rules, Chong Chong could not use the ice dragon whisker. He only had a third-level ice energy crystal that Shi Yu bought. However, with this, he could not exert much power when transformed into an ice dragon.

It was probably just a mid-level leader of the race.

In this way, even if he was protected by Eleven, Chong Chong would be in danger if he encountered any accident. After all, his physical constitution was really fragile.

Therefore, for the sake of Chong Chong's safety, Shi Yu arranged two more skills for it: super vision and high-speed healing, and specially selected it to the skilled level. After all, entry-level skills must have many flaws and weaknesses due to their proficiency, and are easy to be targeted.

As Chong Chong had more skills, Shi Yu felt more at ease.

...

Until August 10th.

Shi Yu showed up at the most critical moment of this professional assessment ranking battle.

This time, he changed into a black and red combat suit, and wore a black duckbill cap and black sunglasses, and his temperament changed greatly.

Now he is a celebrity after all. In order not to be harassed by reporters, he should dress up...

"Uh, you are..."

In the candidate passage outside the arena, the security personnel looked at Shi Yu with a confused face. Why did he dress so strictly?

"..." Shi Yu took off his sunglasses slightly, took out his candidate certificate and showed it to the other party.

The security staff member suddenly widened his eyes, as if he saw an idol.

"You are Shi Yu..."

"My eight-year-old daughter likes your performance very much! Please do your best in the assessment."

"Curious to ask, are you still fighting on your own in today's assessment?"

Shi Yu:? ? ?

Shi Yu:? ? ?

Today is the last day of the ranking battle assessment.

According to the rules, the top 32 players today will completely determine the ranking!

Fighting several battles in a row, there is no rest time.

After a battle a day, you have to rest for one or two days. That is an entertainment performance.

The professional field does not need such performers. What is needed is an elite beast tamer with strong stress resistance. Without the physical strength and energy eight times a day, it is like kidney deficiency. It is not suitable to be a professional beast tamer.

After all, if a disaster really happens again in the future, professional beast tamers will face high pressure, and no beast will give the enemy enough rest time.

However, in order to be relatively fair, after each battle, there will still be professional medical staff to provide supplements, medicines, and treatment services to help candidates and pets recover to their peak condition as much as possible.

"Have you seen Shiyu?"

Zheng Yingjie, the leader of the Seven Heroes of Archaeology, asked in an audience seat in the arena.

Although the spectator quota for the professional assessment is an internal invitation system, they were not qualified to come, but who asked them to treat Director Li to a meal.

Anyway, the arena is very large, so they successfully followed the admissions team of the Ancient Capital University to sneak in.

This dinner was not in vain...

"I understand. It's social death. If it were me, I would definitely flee Blue Star overnight and live on the moon." Senior Lin Yu'er laughed.

Now she really wants to know how Shi Yu suddenly slipped away from the research institute... He is too skilled!

"He said he has arrived at the scene."

Senior Panda looked at the message on the phone and said, "He should be in the preparation room."

"It's good that he is still alive. I thought my junior brother committed suicide because he was depressed." The Seven Heroes and others nodded.

As long as he can still come to participate in the final assessment, there is no problem.

People are not young if they are not middle school students. Everyone has been through this, so I understand.

After speaking, everyone looked at the surrounding audience seats and found many big shots.

Although the ranking battle of the professional assessment is essentially a competition, the atmosphere of the scene at this time is not that of a formal competition.

There were no special guests, no commentary, only candidates and examiners.

No matter what their identities, backgrounds, or strengths, the audience found their own places to watch the game. Whether it was

the admissions tutors of the nine universities, the representatives of the five major conglomerates, or the officers of the Beast Tamers Corps, members of various forces all sat in their seats and stared at the big screen in the main venue.

Among the visitors from the nine universities, the audience from Gudu University was the most important.

After all, Gudu City is the home of Gudu University, and most of the beast tamers who came to Gudu City to participate in the professional assessment also chose Gudu University or local related companies as their first choice.

Therefore, the admissions tutors from other universities came purely to gather intelligence and see if they could find a loophole to poach people.

On the ancient capital university side, the admissions director Lu Dongsheng and a group of admissions tutors came. In addition to these frequent visitors to the professional assessment, the archaeology department director Li, tutor Ding, and a group of members of the battle club school team led by the beast-eared girl Bai Xi also came to join in the fun.

Lu Dongsheng looked at this group of people helplessly, knowing their purpose very well.

"Haha, classmate Shi Yu is our archaeology department's internal appointment. Director Lu, you don't have to help other departments to recruit people. I know you have a good relationship with Lao He from the battle department." Director Li said with a smile.

Lu Dongsheng's mouth twitched. As for the battle department, he really asked him to help recruit Shi Yu to the battle department if he had the chance, although the hope was really slim.

Shi Yu's achievement in discovering the evolved form of the iron-eating beast in archaeology is no longer a secret to some leaders in the ancient capital university.

"I know, I know."

Director Lu smiled and shook his head. He didn't plan to bother about this matter. The mission of their admissions office was not to serve a certain department or to recruit a certain person, but to have them all, to try to invite all the more than 700 new professional beast tamers to study at the Ancient Capital University.

Only when the source of students is good enough and the students are good enough, can these top universities obtain more education grants, and then become more comprehensive. In the end, they can attract more outstanding beast tamers. This is a positive cycle that cannot be left behind in any year.

"Big sister, is it really okay to slack off in training and come to watch the assessment?"

On the Ancient Capital University side, in addition to the Seven Heroes of Archaeology, some people from the Battle Club also came.

Facing the inquiries of other members, Bai Xi, the beast-eared girl, rolled her eyes and said, "Who asked you to come along? We will train twice as hard when we go back."

Everyone: ???

"We have to find a way to trick Shi Yu into coming to the Battle Club." Bai Xi looked back at the screen. That day, after seeing Shi Yu's video performance, Bai Xi was silent for a long time.

As expected of her teaching, his fighting style was deeply inherited from her, and he was a talented person with great potential.

Bai Xi had the urge to wait for Shi Yu to enter the school and then take him to various places to compete.

Anyway, there are not so many relics for Shi Yu to explore during college, so it is

better to cultivate his strength first and follow them to compete. Well, only by cultivating Shi Yu's combat power can Shi Yu be a better tool for Senior Sister Lu, no problem.

In addition to these people who came to the scene, there were also many heavyweight candidates' families.

For example, Yu Shu's mother, a top dragon tamer, stayed quietly in the corridor smoking, waiting for the assessment to begin.

There was also Yin Chuanqi, who was very concerned about his son, and he and an old friend stood quietly on the high platform of the venue where no one paid attention, looking quietly below.

Each candidate has a separate preparation room.

At this time, Shi Yu went through many difficulties and finally came to the preparation room, feeling tired.

It was too difficult.

Does anyone know how he got here? It would be fine if he had to be wary of passers-by and the media, but how come the assessment staff was so excited when they saw him?

He also said something like "You are my eight-year-old daughter's idol, and my daughter thinks you are very handsome." This made Shi Yu directly master the earth escape skill and almost dug out a dungeon with his toes.

Shi Yu sighed slightly, looked at the supplements, medicines, and nutrients in the preparation room, then shook his head and finally looked at the most critical small TV.

The situation of the opponent in the assessment has not been updated yet...

The other 31 candidates are probably waiting outside at this time, watching the big screen outside, but Shi Yu is out of place. In order to avoid trouble, he waited in the preparation room by himself.

...

8 o'clock in the morning.

In the main venue, as the examination time approached, the chief examiner of this professional examination, Master Qujie, appeared again.

His appearance meant that the examination was about to begin, and the thousands of spectators present looked at the big screen in the venue.

At this time, the screen was playing a loop of the wonderful battles of the 16 candidates who had advanced in the previous ranking battles.

These 16 people were also very good, not necessarily inferior to the seed candidates.

Those who were not selected as seed candidates may lack some luck, such as the luck of being edited by Tianyan...

After three days of screening, 752 candidates have obtained their approximate rankings in this professional examination.

Today is the last day of the assessment. From the initial 768 candidates, the 16 candidates who have broken through the siege will have the final ranking battle with the initial 16 seed candidates.

The rules are mainly based on the elimination system. The winners advance to the next level, and the losers will compete for the next ranking.

At present, with the end of the last cycle of the battle collection video, the picture on the screen immediately changed, and 32 names appeared, and they kept rolling and combining.

"According to convention, it should be the candidates who advance and the seed candidates who face each other first."

In the candidate seat, Yu Shu leaned against the wall, crossed his arms, and pouted. It didn't matter who it was. He just wanted to fight Shi Yu now.

"Hmm?"

Yu Shu had just finished thinking when a name suddenly appeared on the big screen, accompanied by a half-length photo.

Shi Yu!

Two big characters came into everyone's sight.

"Is it him?"

After discovering that the first assessor of the day was actually Shi Yu, everyone showed an excited expression.

The effect of the initial assessment was explosive!

Moreover, after a photo of Shi Yu riding a panda appeared under his square name, everyone was immediately happy.

"Ni Ma." In the preparation room, Shi Yu looked at his avatar and his face turned black.

Is this going to end?

Arranged his first assessment, and used this as his avatar. Shi Yu said that the assessor had no bad intentions. He didn't believe it at all.

However, Shi Yu was the first to appear, and it was indeed what everyone expected.

"Hello, it's the Iron-eating Beast Rider."

The thousands of spectators present were no strangers to Shi Yu.

Those examinees who were eliminated in the survival trial and those who completed the ranking positioning all looked at Shi Yu's avatar with mixed feelings.

After analysis, Shi Yu is strong... but it's still a bit painful to be ridden on by such a guy.

In this day and age, not only are honest people bullied, but normal people also have no future?

"Shi Yu..."

At this moment, as Shi Yu's name appeared, the remaining 31 examinees had a light flashing in their eyes. Some wanted to meet Shi Yu, but some didn't want to meet this guy too early.

But before they could think about it carefully, the name of Shi Yu's opponent in this round immediately rose together.

One of the 16 candidates who advanced, Han Dong.

Seeing this name, everyone immediately remembered his information.

Beast Taming Space Level, Level 2.

Beast Taming Talent, Frost Enhancement.

Pets, low-level leader species Frozen Tree, high-level extraordinary species Ice Elemental Elf.

Basic test, Frozen Tree energy value 1300 points.

"..." At this time, the advanced candidate named Han Dong stood speechlessly somewhere in the venue, staring at the big screen.

Speaking of which, he and Shi Yu knew each other. On the plane to the destination of the survival trial assessment, the two were neighbors.

Now facing Shi Yu, he had a strange feeling.

"Next, please ask the candidates to go to the main venue. The assessment battle will officially begin in 5 minutes." Below the venue, the very penetrating voice of the master of distortion rang in the arena.

Next, the 32 best players of this year's professional assessment will compete against each other. As a top master, he will be the referee. He must not only ensure that the beastmasters themselves are not harmed, but also ensure that their pets are safe.

...

"This Han Dong, the trump card is actually the ice elemental elf of the high-level extraordinary race."

Some of the audience began to review the previous battle video.

In the video, a frozen tree stood on the field, surrounded by dozens of ice elemental elves, the scene was extremely spectacular.

On the other side, was the opponent who had become a piece of incomplete broken ice sculpture.

Although the race level of the frozen tree was higher, the ice elemental elf was his original pet and trump card!

The opponent must have used some ice-type spiritual object on the ice elemental elf, so that the ice elemental elf learned the "elementalization" ability that elemental creatures can only master after the commander level before reaching the commander level.

Elemental creatures with elemental abilities are immune to some attacks to a large extent, and at the same time, they can have better control over their own attribute powers. This is a great talent of elemental creatures.

At the main venue, Han Dong, wearing a blue combat uniform, has arrived here. He greeted the chief examiner and referee Master Qu Jie, and stood quietly to the side waiting.

"Where is Shi Yu?"

After Han Dong came on stage, Shi Yu was nowhere to be seen, and the audience began to wonder.

They looked at the candidate passage, curious whether Shi Yu would come out from it riding the Iron-eating Beast.

But it was obvious that they thought too much.

A moment later, a handsome young man wearing a black and red combat uniform, with neat short black hair and a calm expression, who looked nothing strange, walked slowly towards the venue.

Thousands of spectators thought it was normal.

But because it was too normal and inconsistent with the previous style, it seemed even more abnormal.

Who are you, handsome guy?

Where is Shi Yu riding the Iron-eating Beast?

Shi Yu walked to the test venue like a quiet handsome man, nodded slightly to the referee and his opponent, and then quietly waited for the test to begin.

He was tense, with a steady and expressionless face, trying not to say a word so that others would not find any flaws.

"Ahem."

The master of misinterpretation, Han Dong, looked at Shi Yu with a strange expression, as the painting style suddenly became normal and he seemed to have no reaction to what happened before.

Not only them, but also everyone in the ancient capital university and many spectators looked at Shi Yu in silence.

Something is wrong with you!

"Where is your sword?"

On the opposite side, Han Dong couldn't help asking.

He really hoped that Shi Yu would show off and play by himself this time.

Because in that case, the pets need to be more distracted to protect Shi Yu.

If Shi Yu, the beastmaster, is the target of attack, no matter how strong Shi Yu is, as long as the referee determines that Shi Yu is in danger, the victory will be his. In

a normal battle, he really doesn't have much confidence. Even if the race level of Shi Yu's two pets is low, they can't withstand the terrifying high skill proficiency.

Han Dong was taking chances, thinking that low-level and mid-level skills with high proficiency would not have any effect on them.

After all, the iron beast and the caterpillar did not seem to be able to cooperate with each other, and Shi Yu himself had a telepathic talent and could not increase the combat power of his pets.

However, his frozen trees and ice elemental elves were different. With his talent to increase their power, they might be able to fight.

"..." At this time, Shi Yu wanted to say, I don't even need to use my sword to deal with you, but this was too stupid, and he was afraid that it would be recorded and made into an emoticon package.

"Toot!!" After a moment of silence, the master of distortion blew a whistle, and Han Dong's expression became serious.

At 8:10 am, the first round of assessments for the day officially began.

"Beep! --" Master Misinterpretation blew the whistle again to start the battle. In an instant, Han Dong's expression became more serious. He also knew Shi Yu's terrible strength. At the beginning, the ice element energy surged around him, instantly activating his own frost strengthening talent!

Whoosh whoosh! ! !

Immediately afterwards, under the condensation of wind and snow, a three or four-meter-tall pine-like tree, but with a white trunk like frost, and a fluffy crown like a blue ice cloud, took root in the frozen field and appeared in the outside world.

In addition, inside the frozen tree, a group of ice-blue crystal creatures floating like a nine-pointed star, and the ice elemental elves also appeared.

[Name]: Frozen Tree

[Attribute]: Ice

[Skills]: Chill, Blizzard, Snowfall, Freeze

[Name]: Ice Elemental Spirit

[Attribute]: Ice

[Skills]: Snow Hide, Clone, Self-Destruct, Ice Light, Elemental Transformation

Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!

The moment Han Dong's two pets appeared, the frost nine-pointed star-like ice elemental spirit immediately transformed into an element and then condensed into dozens of clones, densely swirling around the frost tree and blending into the wind and snow, making it impossible to tell which one is the original.

Opposite Han Dong, on Shi Yu's side, a summoning array appeared. A one-meter-tall iron-eating beast stood on the field, and a green sponge worm lay on the head of the iron-eating beast. The two pets stared at the ice and snow in front of them, with the same calm expression as Shi Yu.

"Who can win?"

In the audience, a candidate who had lost to Han Dong stared at the field intently.

Because he had fought against Han Dong before, he knew how terrifying this guy was.

There was simply no solution.

The frost tree, which seemed to be of a higher race level, was actually a power bank for the ice elemental spirits. As long as the frost tree kept producing snow and wind, the ice elemental spirits that could transform into elements would always have a nearly immortal physique. With the help of clones and self-destruction, the clones would rush towards the opponent like the suicide squad, which was simply disgusting.

With the slowing and freezing effects of frost, it was a complete nightmare for melee pets.

"Isn't this obvious?" muttered another candidate sitting next to this candidate.

"What do you mean?"

"Masterful hardening, perfect thunder palm... Isn't this a crushing degree of proficiency? In addition, you don't really think that their proficiency in other skills is low, don't you think that the intimidation skills shown in the video can only scare the enemy but not cause any damage?" Bai Qi looked at him and said.

If it wasn't for cooperating with Shi Yu to show off, I'm afraid that the mental intimidation shown in the video would be enough to kill all opponents in seconds!

Bai Qi, who came from Bingyuan City and competed with Shi Yu for the Evolution Holy Spring, was killed in seconds by the kingly aura of Shi Yu's Iron-eating Beast from his initial pet Sky-Snatching Wings. He looked at the field with a mocking look.

A large number of clones that can be reborn infinitely with the blessing of a power bank and self-destruct tactics?

It was okay to deal with ordinary candidates, but when it came to a monster like Shi Yu...

on the field.

Both candidates had just summoned their pets.

Facing the huge combination of frost trees and ice elemental elves, Shi Yu remained expressionless, and Eleven and Chong Chong were also extremely calm.

The next moment, Eleven raised his head slightly and looked at the sky full of ice elemental elves and the tall frost trees, while Chong Chong closed his eyes slightly and yawned.

It seemed like an ordinary action, but suddenly, the ice and snow around the frost trees and ice elemental elves suddenly deformed!

Wuwuwuwuwuwu!!! The cold wind that was whistling just now, at this moment, seemed to be sobbing, extremely chaotic!

Boom!!!

In an instant, a huge mental fear spread from the small iron beast and the green cottonworm. Behind them, at this moment, it seemed as if a giant frost dragon phantom was formed!

"Roar!!!!"

The insect directly materialized the dragon power of the frost dragon. The terrifying mental fear wavered, almost materialized. Above the dragon power, there was an even more terrifying mental fear, like a roaring tsunami, covering the sky and the earth, and pushing it to sweep across the ice and snow in front of it -

buzz!

The next second, two blended spiritual threats suddenly swept through the frost tree and nearly a hundred ice elves. Then, with a "bang!", the field was like a thunder, and countless ice elves exploded. With the appearance of the frost tree and the ice elves, the wind and snow were almost instantly restored to calm, and the field was immediately peaceful.

Shi Yu raised his head slightly, looked at the frost tree with extremely weak leaves, unable to swing, and the only remaining ice elf that fell weakly on the tree, knowing that the winner had been decided.

He glanced at Han Dong, whose expression exploded, and finally looked at the master of distortion with his mouth slightly open.

"Can I leave?" Shi Yu asked.

The aura of a king, master

of intimidation! Combined with the might of the frost dragon!

This kind of ice creature is not a match at all.

After the master of misinterpretation was silent, he looked at Han Dong who couldn't accept it, nodded and made an announcement.

"In the first round of assessment, Shi Yu won and advanced!" As

soon as he finished speaking, the figures of Eleven and Chong Chong disappeared from the field, and were summoned back to the beast control space by Shi Yu. Then, Shi Yu's expression was calm, and under the shocked expressions of thousands of people, he slowly left the field.

It was completely inconsistent with the style of the Iron-eating Beast Rider that everyone imagined.

At this moment, everyone suddenly recalled the battle just now, and couldn't help showing shocked expressions.

16 elite beast tamers who were promoted from more than 700 new professional beast tamers... faced one of the seed players, Shi Yu, and they couldn't even hold out for a single round and were killed instantly?

"King's aura?"

"Is that, Dragon's might?! How is that possible!!"

At this moment, the venue was in an uproar.

"He...he...he..." The Seven Heroes of Archaeology pointed at Shi Yu in a daze. Mastery-level intimidation, Dragon's might? What's going on.

"Calm down." Senior Panda held the camera and knew it earlier than everyone else. Eleven had mastered the mastery-level intimidation before the extraordinary level, and Dragon's might... Shi Yu had told her the purpose of buying the Moonlight Powder.

After all, only a few people know the aura of the king. At this time, as Shi Yu displayed this skill to bully the weak, many master-level figures fell silent again, and the members of the Ancient Capital University Battle Club were almost collectively shocked. There were also 30 other candidates, whose pupils shrank.

Among them, only a few seed candidates quickly regained their composure after being shocked by the master-level intimidation. Obviously, they all had ways to fight back. If Han was frozen, they could also kill him instantly.

At this time, in the noisy venue, Shi Yu's footsteps became faster. From this game on, he wanted to correct these people's stereotypes of himself as soon as possible... He was no longer a Iron-eating Beast Rider, and he wanted to be the rookie king of the Ancient Capital Assessment this year!
