Chapter 251: What If There’s Danger
As soon as the five landing ships stopped on the Beast Garden Planet, the cabin door opened. A total of 3,286 young martial artists participating in the Star Cloud Academy’s martial arts branch’s entrance test walked out in a row. Before long, they disappeared into the surrounding wilderness forest.
Although this test would last a week, if he could accumulate some advantage from the beginning, it would be much better.
Seeing the examinees disappear from sight one after another, Yang Xirui gestured to the cameraman beside her and strode towards Sun Xiangren who was standing at the door of one of the landing ships.
“Director Sun, I have a few questions I want to ask about this entrance test. Can you answer them?”
Sun Xiangren glanced at Yang Xirui and nodded with a smile. “Ask away.”
“The first problem is that we all know that the Beast Garden Planet is an exclusive ecological protection planet specially set by the Declan Empire. There are only seven in the entire Orion Arm. Under normal circumstances, in order to protect the natural environment of this planet, the Declan Empire does not allow any other humans to step foot on this planet. Why did they allow Star Cloud Academy to carry out such a large-scale test on it this time and even allow the examinees to casually hunt the wild animals on it?”
“Firstly, you have to understand something. This time, we want the examinees to kill those ferocious beasts ranked on the ‘Pan Milky Way’s Ferocious Beast Encyclopedia’, not ordinary wild animals. Regarding this, we have already made it very clear in the test instructions for the examinees. If they accidentally kill those precious species that are worth protecting, not only will they not get any points, they will also lose points and even have to bear the corresponding compensation. Therefore, I believe that this entrance test will not affect and destroy the ecological environment of the Beast Garden Planet.”
“But why did the Declan Empire allow this?” Yang Xirui asked. “Even if it’s a ferocious beast, it’s still a ferocious beast on the planet belonging to the Declan Empire. Why did the Declan Empire allow the young martial artists of our Earth Federation to land on the planet with the intention of hunting?”
“This is the second thing I want to tell you. In this entrance test, our Star Cloud Academy has already obtained the official approval of the Declan Empire. There’s no problem with having a complete legal procedure. As for why the Declan Empire allowed it… this concerns a certain cooperation between our Star Cloud Academy and the Declan Empire, it’s not convenient to reveal,” Sun Xiangren replied.
Yang Xirui frowned in dissatisfaction when she did not obtain a definite answer.
She had followed and interviewed Star Cloud Academy for more than a month, but she had only learned this morning that the content of the test was different from the past. Naturally, she hoped to know the inside story as soon as possible and obtain the most priority in reporting.
However, Sun Xiangren clearly said that this was a secret. If he did not tell her, Yang Xirui could only be helpless.
After thinking for a moment, she asked, “Then the second question is, aren’t you worried that something unexpected will happen if you let such a group of examinees who are applying to Star Cloud Academy hunt ferocious beasts? Most of these examinees are only low-level Internal Breath Martial Artists, and some are not even at the initial-stage Internal Breath Realm. How can your Star Cloud Academy guarantee that no accidents will happen when facing ferocious beasts?”
“In order to ensure the safety of the examinees, our Star Cloud Academy has made a lot of effort in this aspect. With the great support of the Declan Empire and the Noctem Chamber of Commerce, we have formulated a complete security system that can accurately monitor the situation of every examinee and ensure that they will rescue them the moment an accident happens. As long as the examinees don’t lose their lives in an instant, we are completely confident in saving them.”
“There’s actually the Noctem Chamber of Commerce involved?” Yang Xirui was shocked. She suddenly discovered that there was probably a huge secret hidden in the entrance test of Star Cloud Academy. No wonder their performance was different from every previous entrance test.
“However, how can you guarantee that all the examinees won’t lose their lives immediately? What if this happens?” Yang Xirui continued to ask.
“This Beast Garden Planet is specially chosen by the Declan Empire. Every ferocious beast or even every wild animal on it has a clear number to ensure that they are all under control. If it’s a D-rank or E-rank ferocious beast, with the strength of at least a fifth-stage Overlord Body, there won’t be any danger. If it’s a C-rank ferocious beast, they will be alerted immediately and have enough time to avoid it.”
“But what if? What if an examinee accidentally collided with a C-rank beast, or if there was a malfunction in his equipment and he was not warned in time? What if he was injured or even died because of it?” Yang Xirui continued to ask.
“What should we do?” Sun Xiangren looked at Yang Xirui deeply. He suddenly narrowed his eyes and his tone became slightly cold, “Miss Yang Xirui, did you get something wrong?”
Yang Xirui was stunned, “What is it?”
“Before our Star Cloud Academy’s Martial Arts Branch carried out the public test, it was already very clear in the recruitment slip that the Martial Arts Branch is different from the other branches of Star Cloud Academy. Students who join the Martial Arts Branch might encounter all kinds of danger from the first day of the test, and they might even lose their lives. If you can’t accept this risk, don’t register for Star Cloud Academy.”
Yang Xirui carefully recalled and discovered that there was indeed such a line in the recruitment slip of Star Cloud Academy.
However, she did not take this seriously at that time and even felt that Star Cloud Academy was joking.
Those young students had come to Star Cloud Academy to study. How could he let their lives be in danger?
If there was, it would definitely be Star Cloud Academy’s negligence.
However, after hearing Sun Xiangren’s words, Yang Xirui was surprised to discover that Star Cloud Academy actually took this seriously!
“Before the official test begins, we have asked every examinee who has passed the preliminaries for the last time and signed a voluntary agreement with them. Those who are willing to take these risks can continue to participate in the test. Those who are unwilling will automatically give up.”
“This is not fair!” Yang Xirui could not help but shout, “As an academy, protecting the safety of the students is your responsibility. How can you use this to force the students to make a choice? This is completely against the federation’s constitution!”
“Constitution?” Sun Xiangren chuckled and pointed at the Star Cloud Academy symbol on his chest. He asked, “Miss Yang Xirui, do you know what the Star Cloud Academy was formerly?”
“Formerly?” Yang Xirui frowned and thought hard about the relevant information in her mind. She was suddenly shocked.
If she did not remember wrongly, the Star Cloud Academy was once the Federation’s First Military Academy!
