Chapter 77: Ten Thousand Years
After the first day of enrollment, there is an upgrade assessment.
The content of the upgrade assessment is very simple. Students can choose soul beasts of different ages in the Colosseum to fight.
The Academy jury will score the selected soul beasts according to their age, strength, and combat performance in the battle.
This is different from the previous assessment battles.
In the battles between students, everyone knows that the other party will not kill them, so the psychological pressure is not that heavy.
But fighting against soul beasts is different. These soul beasts don't know what it means to hold back.
They are really going to tear the enemy in front of them to pieces!
Of course, there will also be teachers ready to protect them at any time, which is not so threatening.
But the sense of oppression is real.
According to convention, the age of the soul beasts should be between 100 and 1,000 years.
But for some reason, this time the academy has cancelled the upper limit of 1,000 years.
In other words, this time the students can even choose the top of the Colosseum, the ten thousand year soul beast!
Of course, it is highly unlikely that anyone will do this.
After all, for these freshmen who don't even have a soul master on average, let alone a ten thousand year soul beast, even if they fight against a five thousand year soul beast, it is likely that they will be sent to the kitchen.
Many first-year students speculated that the reason for the change in the academy this year was probably because of that person...
After all, apart from that person, who among all the first-year students would dare to challenge a soul beast over a thousand years old?
"Here comes that person!"
Amid the noisy voices and the gazes of many people, three figures walked into the Colosseum.
Ling Shuang, dressed in white, was in the middle, with Wang Dong'er and Wang Qiu'er, who had come to the door early in the morning, on either side.
The three people with extraordinary looks and temperament instantly became the focus of the whole audience as soon as they appeared.
For this feeling of being the center of attention, the three did not show any fear.
Ling Shuang and Wang Dong'er were already used to it.
As for Wang Qiu'er...
In her eyes, these students were probably no different from lifeless vegetables, so naturally she would not be afraid.
The three of them sat down in the waiting seats.
"Class monitor, who is this?" Nanmen Yuner saw Ling Shuang from a distance and walked over.
She noticed Wang Qiu'er, who was sitting on the left of Ling Shuang with a cold face, and a flash of surprise flashed in her beautiful eyes.
"Distant sister." Ling Shuang answered without any hesitation.
"Huh?!" Her beautiful eyes widened a bit in an instant. Nanmen Yuner's reaction was the same as Yan Shaozhe and Du Weilun's before, full of disbelief!
She looked at Wang Qiu'er, then at Wang Dong'er, and finally put her sights back on Ling Shuang.
This...
Are you sure?
Ling Shuang's face remained unchanged in the face of Nanmen Yuner's surprised look.
He has developed the ability to lie without changing his expression.
Seeing this, Nanmen Yuner did not continue to ask more questions, but just sat down quietly next to Wang Dong'er.
At the same time,
Dai Huabin also noticed Ling Shuang in the waiting seat.
His face changed at first, and then calmed down.
Dai Huabin naturally had resentment towards Ling Shuang.
But he knew that he had no ability to deal with Ling Shuang, so he could only suppress this resentment in his heart.
But...
Just as Dai Huabin was about to leave and sit down, a figure blocked his way.
Dai Huabin was stunned, looking at the thin figure blocking him, his brows slightly frowned.
He tried hard to recall the identity of the person in front of him.
Isn't this the guy who has had his first soul ring for ten years?
"Get out of the way." Dai Huabin, who was already in a bad mood because of Ling Shuang, did not speak in a good tone.
He pushed Huo Yuhao away and walked straight ahead.
He looked down on the weak, and Huo Yuhao was one of them.
Dai Huabin's behavior undoubtedly angered Huo Yuhao.
His eyes turned red and his voice became louder.
"Dai Huabin!"
This voice made Dai Huabin stop and attracted the attention of many students, including Ling Shuang who had already taken a seat.
Ling Shuang looked over here with interest.
He had no opinion on the original protagonist, but after the incident with the Ice Empress in the Far North, things changed.
Although Huo Yuhao didn't know his relationship with the Ice Empress, he was still a participant after all.
If Dai Huabin could teach him a lesson, Ling Shuang would be very happy to see it.
"Dai Huabin, do you dare to bet with me!"
Here it comes, the classic skill of the Tang family protagonist.
The most classic one is Tang Buddha. When this skill is activated, people can accept the bet without thinking.
This is the case with Dugu Bo, Titan, Qian Renxue, etc.
Huo Yuhao was defeated by Dai Huabin's team in the freshman assessment competition, and a lot of negative emotions accumulated in his heart.
Now that he has transformed with the help of Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, he wants to get back at the first time.
"What bet?" Dai Huabin undoubtedly accepted the bet invitation from the original protagonist.
Even though he actually had no reason to accept the bet.
"Bet on the score, the score of this upgrade assessment!"
"Oh?" Dai Huabin was stunned. He obviously didn't expect that this last-placed person would bet with him.
If it was before, he would naturally not be interested in such a bet with Huo Yuhao, who he thought was a weakling.
But at this moment, he happened to be in a bad mood and needed a breath to vent his emotions.
"Since it's a bet, there must be a reward. I don't think you have a anything that can move me."
"How about this, the loser has to kowtow three times to the winner?"
Dai Huabin didn't think he would lose.
Since this weak chicken wanted to make trouble for him, he would teach him a profound lesson.
Huo Yuhao didn't hesitate and agreed: "Okay, let's bet on this!"
"So many people can be witnesses. The loser has to kowtow three times to the winner!"
Seeing this scene in full view, a flash of inspiration flashed in his eyes.
Ling Shuang already had a guess in his mind.
Judging from Huo Yuhao's performance, it seems that the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm has probably found a second martial soul for him.
I just don't know what it will become after the Ice Empress is gone.
Was it just another Ice Jade Scorpion, or some other soul beast?
Huo Yuhao and Dai Huabin's matter was just a small episode in this upgrade assessment.
Most students were still more focused on the upgrade assessment.
No one wanted to be one of the 10% that were eliminated.
Time passed, and almost all the students had arrived.
On the high platform, Du Weilun's voice rang slowly.
"The upgrade assessment begins, Class 1 starts, send out students to select and fight."
Wang Yan came to Ling Shuang.
"Student Ling Shuang, you're the first one to come, is that okay?"
Wang Yan planned to let Ling Shuang take the lead. His relaxed performance could also reduce some psychological pressure on the following students.
"Yeah." Ling Shuang responded lightly and stood up with the form.
Seeing that the first person to go on stage was the strongest student in the outer courtyard, everyone's attention was instantly attracted. The man
in white stood proudly in the center of the Colosseum.
"Student Ling Shuang, please choose the soul beast you will fight against." Du Weilun said.
Ling Shuang spoke slowly.
The calm and indifferent voice said words that stunned everyone.
"Ten thousand years."
