Chapter 44 gives you a fair and just opportunity to challenge us.
After bidding farewell to Bai Li and Xia Xia, Lin Yuan plunged into the forest, lost in thought as he traveled.
Bai Li is indeed quite different from when she was a child.
Back in her first year of high school, she was as skinny as a bean sprout, but now...
Lin Yuan quickly suppressed the thought, "Stop it, what are you thinking about?"
You're here to take the exam, not to talk about these things.
......
The second day of the hunt went even better than the first.
The reason is simple: Lin Yuan has figured out the details of this forest.
He already had a plan in mind: which area spawned which monsters, which paths were easy and which were dead ends, which monsters were tough and not worth fighting, and which monsters had high points but were easy to defeat.
He basically doesn't touch first-tier monsters anymore; killing ten of them is not as effective as killing one second-tier one. Now he only targets second-tier monsters.
Tier 2, Level 2: Azure Mane Wolf King; Tier 2, Level 3: Shadow Leopard; Tier 2, Level 4: Rock Armor Giant Lizard; Tier 2, Level 3: Windwing Python.
These are things that outsiders would consider "run away if you encounter them," but to him they are walking points packs.
The ability points kept rising uncontrollably.
[Defeat the Tier 2, Level 2 monster, Azure Mane Wolf King, Ability Points +72, Score +10]
[Defeat the second-tier, level-3 Shadow Panther monster, gaining 90 Ability Points and 12 Points]
[Defeat the Tier 2, Level 4 monster, Rock Armor Giant Lizard, Psychic Points +110, Score +14]
[Defeat the Tier 2, Level 3 monster, Windwing Python. Ability Points +90, Score +12]
[Defeated a Tier 2, Level 4 monster, Crimson-Eyed Wolf. Ability Points +115, Score +14]
......
The tip of Zidian's spear was never dry from morning till night.
Lei Zou Jiuxiao's proficiency steadily increased with each battle.
The defenses of a second-tier monster are like an impenetrable wall in front of a peer-level ability user, but they are as fragile as paper in front of him.
It wasn't that the monster was too weak; it was that his gun was too fast and too accurate, always targeting the most vulnerable spots.
By evening, his ability points balance had soared from 246 to 2180.
The proficiency of both Thunder Walk and Sands of Time received a major increase and a minor increase, respectively.
His points increased from 286 to a point he himself didn't even know.
When his source energy is exhausted, Lin Yuan will retreat to the outer area to rest.
It's not that he can't beat them, it's that he's developed resistance to the Rejuvenation Pill after taking too many of them. Shen Man warned him about this when they were in Hangzhou.
The Rejuvenation Pill is a good thing, but you can only take a maximum of five a day. Taking too many will cause the source energy core to become dependent on it, and the recovery speed will slow down in the future.
He didn't want to suffer from ED (excessive internal energy) at such a young age.
There are a lot of people in the outer area.
Each time they retreated, they could see groups of three or five test takers huddled together at the edge of the safe zone.
Some were starting fires to cook, some were bandaging wounds, and some were bragging to each other about how they had almost single-handedly killed a second-tier monster. The listeners looked skeptical, while the speakers looked guilty.
Lin Yuan found a spot by a tree, sat down, and took out some dry rations from his storage bag to eat.
Suddenly, I heard someone next to me saying his name.
"Has the leaderboard been updated? Is Lin Yuan still in first place?"
"Nonsense, look at his score. Second place is Han Feng, 482 points. First place is Lin Yuan—712 points."
"Holy crap, a gap of 230 points? That's a huge gap!"
"Wasn't he supposed to be an F-rank lightning-type? An F-rank can achieve this score? You believe it?"
"Believe it for nothing. I suspect he cheated."
"How do you cheat? The scoreboard was provided in the exam room, and the kill log was reviewed by the examiner. Show me how you do it!"
"I wouldn't know then. In any case, an F-rank lightning-type couldn't possibly reach this score."
"I'm rich. A Tier 2 B-grade gun costs at least a million. Plus, I can just keep using Rejuvenation Pills like they're food, and I can definitely get it higher."
"Tch, pay-to-win player."
Lin Yuan leaned against a tree, crossed his legs, and picked at his ear while munching on a compressed biscuit, without saying a word.
Pay-to-win player? He almost burst out laughing.
While I was slaying demons in the wasteland for ten days, you were probably enjoying your lives somewhere else.
It's true that Zidian was bought with money, but he earned that money by killing monster after monster.
The five million yuan that Shen Man received in advance was S-level treatment funding; it didn't fall from the sky.
But he didn't say these words aloud. Even if he did, no one would believe him.
That's just how the world is—if you're a little better than him, he'll be jealous of you; if you're far better than him, he won't understand you.
What if you don't understand? Attribut it to cheating, spending money, or good luck.
Anyway, it's not that he can't do it.
He'd seen through human nature long ago, having lived for a total of thirty-six years across two lifetimes.
As the sun was about to set, Lin Yuan retreated to the outer perimeter.
This time, my source energy is truly depleted, and I've used up all the source-restoring pills I can today.
Lin Yuan leaned against a big tree, finished the last bite of his compressed biscuit, took a sip of cold water, and was about to close his eyes for a nap when a sudden idea flashed into his mind.
and many more.
He sat up straight.
They are in first place on the leaderboard with over 700 points, a gap of 230 points over second place.
Everyone thought he relied on spending money and acquiring powerful weapons, and few people respected him.
What if they're not convinced? If they are, someone will want to challenge them. What if they are challenged?
The rules are clearly stated: both sides press the battle button at the same time to enter the judgment mode, and the winner gets 30% of the loser's current score.
Thirty percent. He scored over seven hundred points, so thirty percent is over two hundred points.
He won once, and his opponent lost more than 200 points, but that's not the point.
The key point is that the challenges are the same; he can initiate challenges to others, and others can also initiate challenges to him.
When others challenge him, he fights back and wins, which is perfectly reasonable and legal, and even the examiners can't find fault with him.
What if he asked those who wanted to challenge him to pay a registration fee first?
Lin Yuan's lips slowly parted into a smile.
"Hehehe."
He slowly stood up and walked towards the busiest open space on the outskirts.
There were dozens of examinees gathered there. Some were resting, some were exchanging information, and some were bragging. When they saw him walking over, many of them stopped what they were doing.
Lin Yuan picked the tallest and biggest rock, jumped onto it, and cleared his throat.
"Cough cough."
Dozens of eyes turned to look.
"Fellow students, fellow test takers, and all you brothers who don't like me." He spread his arms wide, a smile on his face that made you want to punch him.
"I know you all think I, an F-rank lightning user, don't deserve to be number one. You think I relied on my weapon, drugs, and luck. That's okay, I understand. After all, if I were in your shoes, I wouldn't accept it either."
The candidates below looked at each other, wondering what he was up to.
"So..." Lin Yuan raised his left hand and pointed to the integrator on his wrist.
He continued, "I'll give you a chance. Those who want to challenge me, sign up now. One-on-one, a fair fight. And, to put your minds at ease, I won't use any weapons; I'll fight you bare-handed."
