Chapter 253 - The Next Test

Chapter 253 - The Next Test

Chu Mi and others looked over and saw Yun Lintian's name displayed on the twentieth place with 91 points out of 100. They immediately felt happy for Yun Lintian.

On the contrary, Yun Lintian didn't feel anything special about it. He was thinking, why did he get this twentieth place as he had deliberately answered it wrong. Initially, he had estimated his ranking around the ninetieth or more than that. Seeing the result, it seemed he had greatly overestimated these participants.

Tracing up the ranking, Yun Lintian saw Qin Yiran's name in the first position with a full mark. He turned to look at her and said. "Congratulations for claiming the first position."

Qin Yiran was the same as Yun Lintian. She didn't feel it was anything worth celebrating. She gave a slight nod in reply without saying a word.

Checking on the others, Bai Qingyi got the seventh place, and Qin Yuyan claimed fifth place. Meanwhile, Yang Cheng's position was relatively lower than everyone's expectation as he barely passed the top two thousand rankings.

Seeing everyone looking at him, Yang Chen scratched his head in embarrassment. "Ugh… I don't like reading a book since young."

Everyone was amused by Yang Chen's embarrassing appearance, and they didn't think it was something to be embarrassed about. After all, the knowledge test was pretty much unimportant as long as they could pass the next test.

"Oh? Who is this Lan Shuiying? She got a second place." Bai Qingyi's voice brought everyone to look at the board.

Yun Lintian wasn't surprised seeing Lan Shuiying's name in the second place. He looked around for a while and saw her standing among the crowd with a nonchalant expression.

Suddenly, she seemed to notice Yun Lintian and smiled at him as she sent a sound transmission. "Congratulations on getting the twentieth place."

Yun Lintian's mouth twitched slightly because he could feel a trace of ridicule in her voice. It seemed she still held a grudge being deceived by Yun Lintian. He responded. "Sister Lan is really promising. She could get second place effortlessly. Look like I have to learn more from you in the future."

Lan Shuiying curled her lips and changed the topic. "Is that your ally?"

Yun Lintian replied. "Yes. Do you want to join us? The next test is dangerous. It's better to form a team." He wasn't sure whether Lan Shuiying knew about the transformed profound beast. If she didn't know about it, she could easily lose her life in the survival test.

Lan Shuiying observed Bai Qingyi and others briefly and decided to join them. "Alright. Let me join you."

When Lan Shuiying arrived near Yun Lintian, the latter had immediately introduced herself. "Everyone, this is Lan Shuiying. She's a good friend of mine. I've invited her to join us. Hopefully, everyone doesn't mind about it."

Except for Yang Chen and the Chu sibling, Bai Qingyi and others were surprised to see Lan Shuiying. Moreover, she was actually a good friend of Yun Lintian.

"Welcome to join us, Sister Lan. My name is Bai Qingyi, and this one is Qin Yuyan. As for this one…." Bai Qingyi enthusiastically introduced other members to Lan Shuiying.

"Hello, everyone. My name is Lan Shuiying. Please take care of me in the future." Lan Shuiying smiled sweetly.

In a short period, Lan Shuiying had successfully blended into the group. Her social skills made Yun Lintian amazed. If she had been trained into a spy, she would definitely become an outstanding figure.

At this moment, the academy elder stepped forward and said with a stoic face. "Those who got eliminated, please leave the square immediately. There are carriages waiting for you on the side." There was no trace of sympathy in his eyes when he looked at the wailing participants. They could only blame themselves for being incompetent.

Gradually, around seven thousand eliminated participants reluctantly walked out of the square with bitterness and left the academy directly with their followers. They didn't know what kind of fate awaited them after leaving this place.

For those who were less than fifteen, they might have a chance to try again in the next five years, but such a young participant was rare.

The atmosphere instantly turned solemn as everyone watched the last eliminated participant leave with the carriage. The previous joyous mood brought by passing the first test was now replaced by nervousness. No one dared to utter a sound. Even the usually talkative Peng Lu and Peng Xiaowang were completely silent at this moment.

The second test was the most crucial part out of all. If the participants were careless in the slightest, their lives would be gone for good.

The academy elder used his powerful Spiritual Sense to check on the remaining participants to ensure there wasn't any eliminated participant among the crowd.

A while later, he cleared his throat and said. "Congratulations on passing the first test. However, I advise all of you don't be complacent because what you are going to face next is not something you can handle with your profound knowledge alone." He paused for a moment and continued with a serious expression. "I will give all of you an hour to prepare yourself. Please cherish this one hour. Perhaps this will be the last time you see your families."

Following that, he returned to his seat and closed his eyes.

All the participants looked at each other in dismay for a while before they went to see their families and friends. It was as the academy elder said. Maybe this would be the last time they could see their relatives.

Yun Lintian's group did not go anywhere. They chose to stay in the square and adjusted their bodies to the best condition.

"You should prepare yourself well. When you go to that place, all the storage rings will be useless. I suggest that you take healing pills with you as much as you can. It will definitely play a great role." Suddenly, Han Bingling's voice rang out in Yun Lintian's mind, causing him to frown slightly.
