Lin Chuhan's maneuver didn't seem like much at first glance, but when one thought about it carefully, it was truly amazing.
Among this group of examinees, there were probably no more than five people who could think of such a method.
This was already an overestimation. It was even possible that Lin Chuhan was the only one!
But … this was shameless!
Tsk, it felt a little shameless!
Sensing Wang Teng's strange gaze, Lin Chuhan was stunned for a moment before realizing what he was thinking.
"This bastard, always making fun of me!"
"Do you think it's easy for me to pass the martial arts exam?"
"I smeared that pungent tree sap all over my body, and when the exotic beasts took the bait, I was bitten by the worms again and again …"
Just thinking about it made her heart ache!
She glared fiercely at Wang Teng.
"No matter what, you'll definitely pass the martial arts exam this time. Congratulations!" Wang Teng coughed dryly.
Lin Chuhan's face also showed a hint of joy, but she was also a little worried. "Even so, I still hope to be accepted by a key university. It's just that my actual combat exam won't be considered good. I hope my written exam results will be better."
Some key universities also placed more emphasis on written exam results. For outstanding examinees, even if their results were slightly worse, they would still make an exception and accept them.
"There shouldn't be a problem," Wang Teng comforted her.
"Say, with such an accident happening in this year's martial arts exam, do you think the exam results will still count?" Yang Jian suddenly asked from the side.
When he said that, Wang Teng and Lin Chuhan were both slightly stunned.
Wang Teng looked at the sky. At this time, dawn was approaching. A ray of morning light appeared on the horizon.
"Looking at the time, when the beast horde appeared, it was less than an hour before the exam ended. It shouldn't affect the exam too much, so the results shouldn't be canceled."
"Also, don't forget the purpose of the actual combat exam?" Wang Teng said meaningfully.
"In actual combat, any accident is an exam!" Lin Chuhan and Yang Jian said in unison.
"Not bad!" Wang Teng nodded. "Based on my guess, the examinees' performance during the beast tide outbreak will also be taken into account. Therefore, those examinees who didn't manage to kill five exotic beasts but performed well might still have a chance."
"It would be great if that is the case. I only killed four of the exotic beasts. When the beast horde erupted, I was in the midst of killing the fifth one. Just as I was about to kill it, it ran away. However, I did save an examinee in passing. I was even praised by the Hundred Refinements Dojo's Dojo Master."
Yang Jian was still a little worried. After all, it was just their guess. What if the examiner insisted that they only looked at the numbers?
That would be a huge trap!
Yang Jian and the other unfortunate examinees were at their wits' end.
Wang Teng and Lin Chuhan mourned for him and expressed their sympathy.
"By the way, how was the Beast Tide resolved?" Wang Teng asked.
"How else could it be resolved? They just bombarded it with cannons. If they were scared, the exotic beasts behind them would not dare to charge down," Lin Chuhan said.
"The exotic beasts on the island are limited. This can only be considered a small Beast Tide. Using heavy firearms, even the gods and ghosts would retreat!" Yang Jian said with a smile.
Wang Teng and the others were chatting.
Governor Jiang and the others went to the main control room. The meeting lasted for an hour. Then, they walked out and came to the high platform in the middle of the camp.
Governor Jiang stood in the middle with his hands behind his back. He looked at the examinees below and said, "Everyone, I am the Governor of Eastern Sea!"
The Governor of Eastern Sea!
When his voice was heard, everyone raised their heads and looked over in a daze.
An uproar suddenly broke out!
"Oh my god, it's the Governor of Eastern Sea!"
"The Governor of Eastern Sea is here in person?"
"Is he here to watch our actual combat assessment?"
"Governor, how is this assessment calculated? Many of us almost reached the assessment target. "
"Governor, many of our classmates died in the Beast Tide. They are so pitiful …"
…
The examinees seemed to have found their backbone and shouted one after another. Governor Jiang did not stop them and let them vent. He only continued to speak when their voices became softer.
"It is our fault that such an accident happened. We will compensate any examinees who died!"
"But there is one thing you must remember. The path of a martial artist is hundreds or thousands of times more difficult than this. You may only see the strength and glory of martial artists on the surface, but you don't know the blood and tears they have paid behind the scenes. The world of martial artists is cruel and bloody."
"In this actual combat assessment, your performance in the Beast Tide will also be counted in the final score. So, those who perform well will have bonus points. Those who perform poorly can only rely on the number of exotic beasts killed to determine the final score!"
"Now, I announce that the actual combat assessment is officially over!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the examinees were in an uproar again.
Was the world of martial artists really so cruel?
Before the assessment, they had more or less seen the cruelty of the world of martial artists. However, after the Beast Tide, they realized that it was nothing.
Even this was just the beginning …
Thinking of this, many of the examinees' expressions changed slightly. Some of the examinees had decided to participate in the martial arts examination because they saw the glory of martial artists on the surface. They wanted to have a bright future in the future.
Now that the dangers of the world of martial artists had repeatedly refreshed their worldview, they had no choice but to reconsider whether to take this path.
Indeed, there was no free lunch in the world. If you were given the corresponding status, you would have to bear the corresponding responsibilities and risks!
Of course, for those examinees who were determined to become martial artists, Governor Jiang's words were undoubtedly a stimulant.
Those who were truly strong would not perform too badly in the Beast Tide.
Counting the performance in the Beast Tide into the martial arts examination results would only be beneficial to them.
And for those like Yang Jian who were hanging on the edge of the admission line, they were even more happy to see this happen. At least he could get into the martial arts specialization.
As for the danger …
Seeing how happy Yang Jian was even after he was injured, it was clear that he did not take it to heart.
"All examinees, get ready for the return journey!"
A voice came from the high platform. It was the military officer in charge of the assessment. Meanwhile, Governor Jiang and the others had already left.
The examinees were covered in blood. Some of it belonged to them, and some belonged to the exotic beasts. They formed a long line and boarded the Force Floating Airship that was parked in the empty space beside them.
Some of the examinees were still unconscious and were carried up by others. There were also some who were supported by their companions.
"Those … are the dead examinees!"
One of the examinees suddenly pointed at the stretchers covered in white cloth in front of them. They were carried to the back of the Floating Airship, where the goods were usually stored.
The examinees immediately saluted with their eyes. Looking at the white cloth that was dyed red with blood, a gloomy and depressing atmosphere pervaded the crowd.
They were obviously of the same age, but they had already reached the end of their lives. All of the examinees could not help but have this thought. Their hearts were very complicated.
