The skill description and effects of Adrenaline Excitement Technique flickered before Zheng Cheng, leaving him momentarily lost in awe.
Are you sure this isn’t a stimulant?
And it’s a large dose of stimulant, injected directly into the main artery.
This is not just a cow flying in a plane, it’s a cow soaring up to the sky!
A group of cows flying in a plane, cows are flying everywhere!
“How about…we find someone to test it?”
Zheng Cheng rubbed his chin, then shook his head: “No, the combined entrance examination for newcomers of Professions starts tomorrow, I wouldn’t want any trouble if they can’t sleep.”
“We’ll talk about it tomorrow!”
After that, he opened a group he created before called ‘The small team of twelve iron chickens’.
With a twitch twitching at the corner of his mouth every time he saw this group name, he wanted to drag the chicken out and beat him up.
If people don’t know better, they might think they’re doing something indecent in the group!
It was already late at night, but the other members in the group were still chatting.
Cai Shen, in particular, was quite active.
His gear had been reconfigured, and Chen Xiao said it was pretty good.
With the augmentation of the equipment, and the enhancement gained previously from special foods, Chen Xiao’s strength improved significantly.
Cai Shen: “Brothers! The entrance examination for the professional newcomers starts tomorrow. Are you all ready?”
Cai Shen: “Damn! I can’t sleep, anyone up for a chat?”
Chen Zixiong: “If you can’t sleep, go jerk off.”
Cai Shen: “Meh~! Bear, are you jerking off right now?”
Chen Zixiong: “Fuck off! Call me Bro Zixiong! Who the hell jerks off at this hour? I’m at a bar surrounded by babes!”
Chen Zixiong: “Picture, picture, picture, video…”
A series of pictures were sent over, all of them hot and sexy girls in bikinis and hot pants, moving wildly on the stage.
Their youthful and energetic bodies were incredibly attractive, and there was a large crowd in the pictures, incredibly lively.
Chen Zixiong: “Brothers, come out and have some fun! Relax before the big battle.”
Chen Zixiong: “@Zheng Cheng@Chen Xiao@Cai Shen come, come, come, I’ll introduce you to some babes. Their figures are explosive, guarantee you’ll forget about home.”
“Group member Chen Zixiong was banned from speaking by admin Song Chaoyu!”
Cai Shen: “Picture (LOL), haha… Daring to send porn pictures in our group. It’s like shining a torch in a sewer, asking for death!”
Cai Shen: “@Chen Zixiong, Bear, please send them to me privately~!”
Song Chaoyu: “All of you, shut up! A bunch of stinky men!!!”
After the shouting, the group finally quietened down.
Zheng Cheng could only shake his head helplessly, and typed: “Everyone, rest early. Gather at the city center’s Professionist Union Plaza precisely at eight o’clock tomorrow!”
“I don’t want anyone to jeopardize tomorrow’s exam because of not getting enough sleep.”
“If anyone’s condition is off tomorrow, I won’t hesitate to kick them out of the team.”
Cai Shen: “Got it, Brother Cheng!”
Chen Xiao: “Got it!”
Song Chaoyu: “I know!”
Yang Lie: “Captain, we got it. Brother Zixiong said he got it too. We’re heading back now.”
Cai Shen: “Fuck! You sneaky guy are here all along!”
Song Chaoyu: “Shutting down the group, who dares to speak again, punishment awaits!”
The group finally quieted down, and Zheng Cheng tossed his phone onto the couch.
“Yao Zhixue has been doing advancement tasks these past few days, I don’t know if she’ll have enough time.”
“She amassed a lot of soul power in Moria Secret Realm, if she completes her advancement task, her level could at least reach LV12.”
“At that time, we’ll have more confidence.”
A quiet night passed.
The next day, early in the morning, Zheng Cheng arrived at the Professions Union Plaza by himself.
Several days ago, after the Elders Council announced the change in the content of the Professions entrance exam, all the new professionists in every city had to gather at their respective Professionist Union Plazas.
The Formation Masters from the Professionist Union were tasked to teleport all the new professionists to specific locations on Radiation Island!
The surroundings of the plaza were already crowded with people.
Not only were there citizens who came to spectate, but also a large number of military personnel maintaining order.
There were even a dozen or so TV crew members carrying cameras and microphones, excitedly reporting on the scene.
“Dear viewers! Dear viewers! I am your good friend Bingbing, now at Chang’an City’s Professions Union. Today, more than twenty thousand new Professionists from Qinzhou Province will be teleported to Radiation Island to complete this year’s entrance exam…”
New Professionists participating in the entrance exam inevitably have to fight and kill monsters, and injuries are quite common.
Even deaths are not uncommon.
It could only be said that the humans in today’s world had long been accustomed to life and death!
Every year the entrance exam for new Professionists is a significant event for humanity!
But the content of this year’s exam is to exterminate an entire species on a planet.
Even in the history of Xia Country, this is a first!
A short-haired, cute-looking Bingbing was saying this while tilting her head to the camera. As she moved, the camera randomly shot the Professionist Union behind her.
A giant diameter of about a kilometer, a formation with complicated patterns appeared before everyone’s eyes.
“Dear viewers, this is Master Xin Ruhuo’s Lockstar Formation Array!”
“Master Xin Ruhuo, is our country’s only LV99 Formation Master, and he’s the best at the Lockstar Formation!”
“This Lockstar Formation will teleport all the new Professionists preparing for the entrance exam to the location where the main Lockstar Formation is.”
“At that time, all new Professionists will be examined on the Alien Planet, Radiation Island!”
“Because of technological reasons, we can’t directly watch the exam video.”
“But our central TV station will report the text messages to our viewers at the first moment!”
The people in front of their televisions were all anxiously watching the screen.
Today, more than thirty provincial capital cities and large cities across the country are broadcasting the grand occasion of each city’s professional examination.
“Mom and Dad, in future, I want to be a professional too!”
“Ah, what a shame that this year’s college entrance examination doesn’t involve the challenge tower. Back in my day, I made it through the challenge tower too.”
“Dad, Dad, how far did you make it?”
“I think I made it… to the ninth floor…”
“Tsk… the minimum requirement for university admission is the tenth floor. Dad, you’re so lame…”
“Hush, my sweet boy, at least give your dad some face…”
“Hahaha, honey you are so cute…”
The camera refocused on Bingbing’s sweet face. Excited, she said, “This year, we’ve had three nine-star level professionists awakened in Chang’an City, as well as an additional seven eight-star level professionists!”
“A month ago, our central television station held a popularity vote competition for emerging professionists in Chang’an City. Now, let’s reveal the results of this vote!”
Bingbing elongated her crisp tone and announced, “The winner of the New Professionist Popularity Rankings in Chang’an City is… Yao Zhixue, from the twelfth middle school in Chang’an City!”
An image appears on the screen.
She has long, white hair, an exceptionally beautiful face, and a pair of strikingly pure blue eyes. Her overall presence exudes an indescribable icy aura.
“Yao Zhixue, eighteen years old, a freshman from the twelfth middle school in Chang’an City!”
“Awakened profession… classified!”
“Star level… nine stars!”
“It seems everyone loves a beautiful woman, and I’m certainly no exception. Let’s hope Yao Zhixue wins…”
The news from the central TV station broadcasts on the television, radio station, and big screen.
At this time, Zheng Cheng had already found his Night Watcher’s faction, and even Zhao Yunxiao had arrived.
Next to him, the real Yao Zhixue, whose image is being displayed on the big screen, is standing in front of Zhao Yunxiao, her eyes remaining remarkably calm.
“Brother Cheng!”
“Brother Cheng is here!”
“Come over here, Zheng Cheng!”
Zheng Cheng squeezed through the crowd, looking at the big screen, and asked puzzledly, “Captain Yunxiao, why are they broadcasting so much information about high-star level professionists?”
“What if the Fallen Ones find out and try to assassinate them?”
“Didn’t you say it was supposed to be kept secret…”
Zhao Yunxiao replied with a sigh, “It’s the rules set by the ministry of education and publicity. The high-star level professionists awakened in each city each year, especially the nine-star and eight-star ones, are heavily publicized.”
“It’s to motivate the human race and strengthen everyone’s confidence, to encourage them to develop peacefully.”
“We need to tell them, we, the humans of Blue Star, we of the Xia Country, have a plethora of talent and there is no need to worry.”
“Otherwise, in the event of a frontline defeat, there’s a risk of a panic across the human world that could lead to a breakdown at any moment.”
“Besides, they’re only announcing names and physical appearances. They would never announce classified information like profession and skills!”
Zheng Cheng asked curiously, “Promoting wartime heroes?”
Zhao Yunxiao nodded, “Basically.”
“A defeat at the front line…” Zheng Cheng raised another question, “What do you mean by that, Captain Yunxiao?”
“Didn’t we just defeat the Inferior Tribe in the Fallen Islands? What…”
Zhao Yunxiao scanned the surroundings, lowering his voice, “The Inferior Tribe is nothing to worry about. They can’t even make it into the top ten thousand race rankings, and neither can we, the Blue Star’s race!”
“As for the Fallen Islands, it’s just a minor alien battlefield. The races fighting there are all ordinary.”
“We are considered the stronger ones in the Fallen Islands, but on other alien battlefields, we can only defend passively and dare not launch attacks easily.”
“One misstep and our entire race faces the risk of being overturned!”
“This…”
Zheng Cheng took a sharp breath.
He had assumed that their Blue Star people would rank at least in the mid-range.
But he was surprised to hear from Zhao Yunxiao that they couldn’t even break into the top ten thousand.
That was quite a gap indeed.
“Just wait and see.”
Zhao Yunxiao said, “We still have time, so it’s worth getting to know the competitors in advance.”
“Competitors?”
Zheng Cheng asked curiously, “Isn’t the test for this year’s college entrance examination just the operation to clean up the Radiation Island? What do you mean by competitors?”
“Cleaning up Radiation Island, yes, but the subsequent ranking battles will still take place.”
“Only the top ten from each province have the opportunity to be admitted by the Beijing professional college and the three major military training schools!”
Zhao Yunxiao said in a low voice, “And the reward for this year’s top scholar in Qinzhou Province, you guys should really try for it if you get the chance.”
“Worldly treasure?”
Zheng Cheng’s eyes lit up, “Captain Yunxiao, what exactly is this ‘worldly treasure’?”
Zhao Yunxiao smiled, “Worldly treasure, it is the manifestation of the rules condensed after a world race is destroyed and the world collapses.”
“Once you get a worldly treasure, as long as you’re willing to invest resources in cultivation, you can grow it into a small world!”
“Worldly treasures are extremely precious, a treasure that all epic and legend-level warriors yearn for.”
“Of course, the worldly treasure being offered as a prize by Qinzhou Province this time is just a damaged piece.”
“But for you new professionists, it’s still a treasure!”
Zheng Cheng suddenly said, “Worldly treasure, Captain Yunxiao, is it the one in the hands of the Dark Sun Lord?”
Zhao Yunxiao stroked his hair, “That’s right, it’s that one.”
“The daughter of the Dark Sun Lord chose to join us Night Watchers and offered up this item.”
“Now, she is one of us, a member of the Night Watchers in Chang’an City.”
“And today, she will join you in entering the radiation island for the examination!”
“Uh…?”
“Second place!” Bingbing’s voice boomed from the big screen, more excited than ever, “is Jiang Muyun, a new professionist who chose to leave the dark, defected from the Fallen One’s organization, Dawn, a mere ten days ago and chose to return to our country, rejoining the human family!”
The next moment, a girl wearing a white skirt appears on the big screen. With a gentle demeanor and beautiful features, her eyes brimming with tenderness and… sorrow.
“Jiang Muyun, Seventeen years old! Used to be one of the Nine Days of the Fallen Ones’ organization, Dawn, a daughter of the Dark Sun! Now a member of the Night Watchers!”
“Awakened profession… Shaman Maiden!”
“Star level… Eight stars!”
