Chapter 107: Chapter 106: I might have taken a little advantage (Second update!)

Gu Xi froze for quite a while.

The expressions that were full of charm earlier were now frozen.

She could tell that the boy wasn’t lying.

“It’s… it’s not exactly that you can’t drink it.”

Gu Xi stammered, “What I actually mean is, if all your cultivation is based on elixirs, then even if you get into Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion, it won’t be a good thing. Because as you progress, it’s not just about wealth, but the weight on inner attributes, potential, and comprehension will gradually increase.”

She spoke more smoothly, “So, early glamour doesn’t count for much. At Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion, you may gradually be left behind because you don’t get resource assistance from the Martial Mansion, wasting your youth, and then your life might truly be wasted. Time is limited; there should be some first and second class Martial Mansions that haven’t finished their exams yet. I can arrange for you to go there. Don’t be stubborn. Yes, I do have some personal motives, but these words are genuinely for your consideration.”

Xu Lingjun worriedly asked, “Teacher, can’t I take the exam?”

After speaking.

The heart of Zhong Dawei, who was hiding in the corner behind him, instantly turned cold, feeling like his heart was plummeting down.

It’s over.

I’ve already activated the “Qiantian Gang Qi”!

Is he really going to quit the team?

I wonder what the chance is of suddenly attacking Xu Lingjun in front of this seemingly impressive examiner and killing him?

After all, I’m in an unprecedentedly strong state now. According to Marquis Xia Wu, my current strength is no less than Transforming Truth, although once it erupts, I can barely sustain it for half an hour.

But unless the opponent also possesses a technique similar to “Qiantian Gang Qi,” they absolutely can’t block my three moves.

But this instructor seems quite tough…

“You don’t have to, don’t worry.”

Gu Xi thought the student seemed somewhat neurotic.

She said, “Anyway, everything that needs to be said has been said. The examination starts in three minutes.”

Zhong Dawei behind instantly breathed a huge sigh of relief.

Luckily, fortunately, during this little time… he felt that his whole body was already soaked.

Three minutes later.

Gu Xi asked, “Anyone wants to withdraw?”

Five students raised their hands tremblingly.

Gu Xi’s words made a lot of sense, “It is better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix”… forcibly joining a team that doesn’t belong to you will only waste your youth.

“Very good, arrange them to go to the Martial Mansion they want to be assessed at. Sometimes bravely giving up is also a form of courage.”

Gu Xi smiled satisfactorily and said, “Now, let me introduce the assessment content, the Martial Tao assessment is divided into seven items with a full score of 900, and tomorrow’s written test includes five items with a full score of 700, totaling 1600 points. As long as you get a total score of over 1000, you can join Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion. Don’t think it’s easy because there’s also the written test dragging you back.”

She detailed, “Don’t be afraid to tell you in advance, your written test questions are not as comprehensive as those bookworms, but only two subjects less than them. In terms of topics, it’s the same as theirs, but they have dug deeply into these knowledge areas for nine years, and you all… hehe, so written test scores aren’t so easy to get. The minimum standard is 370 points, whole 20 points higher than previous years. If you can’t get 370, even if your martial test is full score, you still can’t join the Martial Mansion, so be mindful.”

Her gaze swept over everyone and focused on a young girl among them.

She said, “Also, I advise those with comparatively strong capabilities not to hold back either because your score directly determines your treatment in Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion. 1000 points is just the minimum standard; if you only score 1000 points, I can assure you, you cannot survive in Bei Xuanwu Martial Mansion. The extra score won’t be wasted; it will form a different kind of capital for you.”

She paused and smiled, “That’s right, scores exceeding 1000 will convert into equivalent academic credits, your initial funding. At the academy, living expenses, and other necessities all rely on academic credits, the amount even determines your future. This is crucial.”

Under Gu Xi’s introduction.

The crowd quickly understood the examination content for this session.

They are practical assessment, endurance assessment, gravity assessment, neural reflex assessment, firearm shooting assessment, potential assessment, and martial skill assessment.

Potential assessment, martial skill assessment, and shooting assessment each account for 100 points, the remaining four items for 150 points each.

A student raised a hand, “But teacher, everything else is understandable, but we rarely interact with firearms in school, the school barely teaches this.”

“So you’ve already lost 100 points.”

Gu Xi paused, looking at the student’s mournful expression, she smiled, “I’m kidding, don’t worry, the difficulty isn’t high, as long as you’re serious, you can still score decently. This is an assessment, not a trouble. Alright, everyone line up, start the exam.”

As she spoke.

A huge transparent glass dome descended slowly from the sky at the exam site, encasing everyone inside.

Everyone found themselves in an enclosed space.

Gu Xi flicked her hand.

Countless small beads about the size of fingers flew towards everyone simultaneously.

Examinees raised their hands and caught them.

It was something resembling an elixir.

“First round, gravity assessment.”

Gu Xi said, “The longer you endure, the higher the score. If you can’t hold on, crush the thing in your hand to keep safe… don’t force yourself, if you can’t, then you can’t, otherwise you’ll really get injured. Completing all subjects in one day, the allocation and trade-off of physical strength is very important. Don’t lose out on small things.”

As she spoke.

Inside the dome.

An invisible pressure came down.

Everyone’s feet sank, feeling their body weighed several times heavier.

“Is this gravity?”

Zong Xiaoping couldn’t help but let out a low shout.

“This is a very important test. We cultivate Martial Tao, is it just for transcending ourselves? No, it’s more about fighting the mysterious races of the heavens. And wars won’t always be on Blue Star, always be on the Polar Star Battlefield. If one day, we need to set foot on enemy territory, and the gravity is heavy there, what do we do?”

Gu Xi said, “This, including the firearm shooting test, is an additional subject this year. After all, the Dragon Gate Examination also needs to keep pace with the times, doesn’t it?”

And as she spoke.

The pressure kept increasing.

Double, triple, four times!!!

Initially thought it would be gradual, didn’t expect that in just a few words, the pressure had reached four times.

This time, more than half of them already felt the pressure.

Head congested, feet seemed to be filled with lead, unable to lift.

Five times, six times!

This time, even Zong Xiaoping noticed the strange feeling, legs couldn’t help but tremble slightly.

“Ten minutes.”

Gu Xi leisurely took out a lollipop and said, “Just endure ten minutes to qualify, after ten minutes, gravity will increase to ten times, which would be fatal to ordinary people, take care.”

“How long to persist for full marks?”

The black-clad girl previously focused on by Gu Xi asked.

“Twenty minutes, but after fifteen minutes, gravity will increase to twenty times, without sufficient strength, it could be deadly.”

Gu Xi seductively put the lollipop in her mouth, smiling, “So I don’t recommend forcing yourself too much in any one aspect. Again, completing seven subjects in one day, do you have that stamina?”

“This isn’t considered exhaustion.”

The girl closed her eyes and stopped speaking.

Xu Lingjun stayed silent throughout.

He felt a bit puzzled…

Pressure?

There seems to be a bit… but… is it exaggerated to the point of being fatal?

In fact, if it weren’t for Zong Xiaoping beside him whose veins on his forehead were about to burst, he wouldn’t have known that the assessment had already begun.

As Gu Xi glanced at Xu Lingjun and saw his innocent and bewildered look, clearly unaffected by fivefold gravity.

She praised, “Is this the power of Donkey-hide Gelatin Blood Replenishing Oral Liquid? Truly impressive.”

Xu Lingjun humbly waved his hand repeatedly, saying, “Maybe because I cultivate the Body Refining Technique, taking a tiny bit of advantage.”

Zong Xiaoping, who couldn’t even raise his hand anymore, was dripping with cold sweat from his forehead, unable to even wipe it.

He was speechless silently…

Thinking that his hands were waving so happily, it seems it’s not just taking a tiny bit of advantage.
