Chapter 161 The Clown's Summons
At this moment, Dai Xingzhi heard Ye Lingxiao beside him say: "In the last Dao Heart Test, your valuation was unknown?"
Dai Xingzhi was slightly stunned, then he looked in the direction the other party was speaking and found Zhang Yu behind him... The number on the other person's body was exactly 55.
When Zhang Yu heard Ye Lingxiao's question, he was silent for a moment and didn't know what to say.
Dai Xingzhi on the side said: "Unknown valuation, didn't you give up until the end, and even burst the illusion...so you gave an unknown valuation?"
Zhang Yu said helplessly: "Well... about the same."
Hearing these words, Ye Lingxiao's eyes narrowed, and there was a hint of importance in his eyes when he looked at Zhang Yu.
Ye Lingxiao thought to himself, "How could this person actually explode the illusion?"
"How strong is his will? How rich is he? Is he richer than Yun Jing and me?"
Meanwhile, Dai Xingzhi's brain was already frantically thinking: "Who is he? Is he the descendant of a company director? Or the heir of a local noble family?"
At the same time, more and more people noticed the number 55 on Zhang Yu's body and realized that this out-of-town student was the first place in the last Dao Heart Test.
At the same time, because of the special nature of this Dao Heart Test, they realized that the first place winner must be worth a lot of money and have amazing wealth.
As wealth is the most direct reflection of one's potential to become an immortal, No. 55, who is worth a lot of money, must also be very powerful, and is definitely a strong candidate for the foundation-building qualification certificate.
Ye Lingxiao looked at Zhang Yu and thought to himself, "From the way he picked up the red envelope talisman and what he said, I thought he was a poor man."
"I didn't expect him to be so well-hidden... Could it be that he is rich enough to pick up red envelopes on the ground?"
"It seems like he's really concerned about what the poor should do if they find a red envelope charm... Is he one of those rich people who has never experienced much of the world?"
While thinking, Ye Lingxiao turned around and looked at Zhang Yu with more serious eyes: "I look forward to competing with you in the future."
At this moment, Zhang Yu, whose identity is mysterious and whose worth is unfathomable, has become one of Ye Lingxiao's main opponents in the future.
Dai Xingzhi and other students on the side looked at the two people standing opposite each other. It felt like they saw two giant beasts swallowing billions of wealth colliding fiercely with each other.
Bai Zhenzhen witnessed this scene, and while looking at Zhang Yu, she was secretly worried: "Yuzi! You are pretending to be so arrogant now. When the official competition starts, you will be exposed and become the kind of clown that Lao Zhao talks about!"
Bai Zhenzhen is confident that she and Zhang Yu have made a lot of progress in the past two months and have definitely reached the level of a senior high school student.
But she also knew that even with so much progress, there was still a gap between her and Zhang Yu and those top immortals.
Facing the first round of exams, Bai Zhenzhen just wanted to pass.
As for catching up with or even surpassing the top Xianduye, that should be the goal in the second and third rounds of exams in the next few months.
Zhang Yu knew all this, but when his number was ranked first in the Dao Heart Test, he realized that he had no way to explain it.
He couldn't say that he was able to hold on to the end in the illusion because of the influence of the ritual.
There is no way I can say that I am actually a pauper and I am still trying to pay the interest on my loan next month.
So facing Ye Lingxiao's stare, feeling the curious, inquiring, or hostile gazes of all the contestants in the audience, Zhang Yu felt like he was being stared at by a group of people, but he could only hold on.
"Damn it, shouldn't I be the one who, despite being looked down upon and even ignored by the Xiandu gentlemen, catch up with them step by step and finally win the foundation-building certificate? Why are they all staring at me right from the start?"
"I said we shouldn't have rankings! Why expose the players' privacy like this?"
Thinking that he would be competing head-on with this group of people next, Zhang Yu felt that the clown Zhao Tianxing mentioned was calling him.
"Is there any way I can avoid being too embarrassed later?"
"Forget it. I can't help losing face because I'm not strong enough right now."
Yu Xinghan, who was not far away, had just arrived and saw this surprising scene.
"Zhang Yu, this kid..." Yu Xinghan looked at Zhang Yu, feeling curious and surprised: "How did he do it?"
Thinking that the other party could actually survive in that illusion as a poor man until an unknown valuation, he couldn't understand it no matter how hard he tried.
He even had an urge to ask Zhang Yu, but he also knew that the other party would never be able to answer him this secret.
A moment later, as all the contestants arrived one by one, Deng Bingding, as the chief examiner, began to announce the examination process.
In a word, it is to understand the spirit of reform of the foundation-building examination. In addition to the heart of Taoism, students will be tested on their magic power, physical fitness and martial arts in turn.
As for why there is no Dao Heart test, it is said that all those who failed the last round of Dao Heart tests were eliminated and there is no need for further testing.
Of course, the little god Huang Zichou standing aside knew that this was done in order to save budget.
After all, compared to the other three subjects, the Dao Heart test involves the spiritual environment, and it costs the most money and consumes the most resources.
Finally, Deng Bingding said: "... In this round of exams, only the top 20 contestants will be left, and all contestants after the 20th place will be eliminated. To encourage students, each of the top 20 contestants will be awarded an expert-level skill..."
Zhang Yu's eyes lit up when he heard this: "One expert-level technique for each person? So generous?"
Zhang Yu still remembers that the bonus Deng Bingding approved for him last time was an interest-free loan.
But after thinking about it, he thought: "Behind the Eight Gods are the Heavenly Court and the Ten Great Sects."
"For us, expert-level skills would cost tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars."
“But for them, maybe it’s just a permission.”
"After all, all they have to do is approve our right to use it and send us the content of the technique..."
…
Soon the magic test officially began.
All the students on site lined up in the hall in order according to their numbers.
Then several examiners distributed a set of testing equipment and a box of spiritual roots to everyone present.
Dai Xingzhi thought to himself, "This mana test is about the control, burst, and recovery of mana."
He picked up a detection patch and thought, "I need to output as much mana as possible into it within 30 minutes."
"The faster and more mana you output within 30 minutes, the higher your score will be."
"This requires both explosive power and precise control of mana. It also requires breathing in and out of the spirit to restore mana while outputting mana."
Dai Xingzhi knew that this ability to burst out magical power for a long time should be a fairy course learned in the third year of high school according to the high school curriculum.
But since it is a foundation-building test for high school students, it will naturally not be restricted to the syllabus.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Dai Xingzhi opened the small box beside him which contained the external spiritual roots.
I saw that one of the rings was constantly emitting traces of inspiration, as if it was breathing in and out like a living thing.
Dai Xingzhi thought to himself: "External spiritual roots, the sea of qi is boundless."
"An external spiritual root from a mid-range brand?"
Dai Xingzhi recalled what the examiner had just said and knew that using a unified spiritual root like this was one of the reforms in this foundation-building exam.
Dai Xingzhi disagreed with this. He believed that wealth was one of the potentials for becoming an immortal. It was natural for rich people to have more advantages. Why should they use a unified spiritual root?
At this time, Deng Bingding reminded: "Before carrying external spiritual roots, everyone should remember to close the spiritual roots in their bodies, otherwise the consequences will be at your own risk."
When Dai Xingzhi was about to put on the external spiritual root Qi Hai Wu Ya, he suddenly heard a male voice.
"How do I use this external spiritual root?"
Dai Xingzhi turned around and found that the person who spoke was No. 55.
"They actually distributed spiritual roots uniformly?" Zhang Yu thought to himself, "But they didn't even provide an instruction manual for these external spiritual roots. How could anyone know how to use them?"
"And if I ask this, the group of immortals around me will probably guess that I'm not that rich, right?"
"It can be regarded as a prelude for myself..."
Bai Zhenzhen on the other side heard this and thought to herself, "Well done, Yuzi. If you had asked like this, I wouldn't have to ask."
"I can also start to build a shield for myself by slowly revealing the fact that I am not that rich. Even if my grades are not as good as everyone imagines, I can still embarrass myself less."
When Dai Xingzhi heard this, he thought to himself, "You haven't even used Qi Hai Wu Ya?"
Thinking of the unknown valuation of the other party who ranked first in the Dao Heart Test, Dai Xingzhi thought: "Is it because Qi Hai Wu Ya is too low-end for him?"
"Damn it! For me, these are already normal spiritual roots for cultivation, but this guy doesn't even bother to use them? What kind of spiritual roots does he usually use?"
Dai Xingzhi thought to himself: "What a rich guy! Fortunately, I am using the unified spiritual root to take the test this time!"
On the other side, the strongest high school student Yun Jing's eyes flashed as he looked at Zhang Yu, thinking to himself: "Is this outsider... showing off his wealth here? He actually said that he has never used Qi Hai Wu Ya?"
Yun Jing snorted in his heart and said, "I don't usually use this kind of spiritual root. Examiner, please teach me."
"So even rich people don't use this spiritual root much?" Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Tsk, what a hassle... Why do I feel like there are more eyes on me?"
He injected magic power according to the method introduced by the examiners, enlarged the ring and put it on his hand. Zhang Yu then felt that this external spiritual root was vibrating with his breathing, as if it had become a part of his body, and spiritual energy from all around him immediately swarmed in.
Next, put on the detection equipment and hold the detection patch tightly.
With the countdown of 3, 2, 1, the players present all output mana into the detection patch.
Boom! There seemed to be a loud noise in the air as everyone's magic power was activated.
At the same time, on the light screen in front of the hall, the mana output data representing each individual lit up.
It was a row of bar charts, with a player's number at the bottom of each bar and a mana number at the top of each bar.
At this moment, as everyone was madly outputting mana, each pillar was growing continuously and was sorted according to the size of mana output.
However, because the growth of two pillars was so fierce, not only did they suddenly squeeze into the first and second places, but because of the exaggerated growth, it seemed that the pillars of other contestants were shrinking.
The contestants represented by these two pillars are Yun Jing, No. 11, and Ye Lingxiao, No. 23.
Then they saw that the mana numbers of the two people skyrocketed, and the two pillars were like two giant dragons, entangled back and forth in the first and second positions, chasing each other.
At the same time, Dai Xingzhi looked at pillar No. 55: "Huh? Why is it so far back?"
