Fang Ruoxi glanced at Xu Miantu but ignored him. She looked at Zhou Wen and asked, "Zhou Wen, which school do you plan on applying for?"
"I haven't decided yet," Zhou Wen said.
Fang Ruoxi nodded and said, "That's right. With your abilities, you can choose any school you want. There's no rush. Alright, I'll do my best to complete the test. I hope I won't be too far behind you. "
With that said, Fang Ruoxi waved her hand at Zhou Wen and turned to leave. She ignored Xu Miantu the entire time.
Xu Miantu was pissed, but he couldn't flare up in such a place. All he did was shoot a glance at Zhou Wen and say to Jiang Hao and Li Xuan, "People from small places sure are ignorant. What a waste of their good looks. Unfortunately, they lack brains and taste."
Jiang Hao didn't say a word, but Li Xuan's interest in Zhou Wen was piqued. He looked at Zhou Wen and asked, "I heard that you were once the number one genius of Guide High School. From the looks of it, it's true. That chick seems to idolize you."
"It's just a form of encouragement between classmates. She's excellent to begin with, in no way inferior to me. She's a rare cultivation genius no matter where she goes," Zhou Wen said.
Xu Miantu could naturally tell that Zhou Wen was rebutting him, so he said disdainfully, "If you were really that excellent, why would you need us to bring you along?"
Li Xuan didn't tell Xu Miantu and company about Zhou Wen. All he said was that he was helping a friend by bringing a student to participate in the combat test.
Zhou Wen didn't defend himself, nor did he care to argue with Xu Miantu.
Li Xuan cut off Xu Miantu, who was about to say something else. "Alright, cut it out. It's time to enter. Keep your spirits up."
With Li Xuan's command, Xu Miantu could only swallow the words he was about to say. All he could do was glare at Zhou Wen unhappily.
The invigilators had already begun to verify the students' qualifications for the exam. They were divided into teams of four, and each team brought their admission pass through the machine. The machine collected their fingerprints, scanned the admission pass and the items on their bodies, and confirmed that they were the ones on the name list, as well as not carrying any cheating items. Only when all four of them were present would they be allowed to enter the ancient city.
Most of the students weren't nervous. Instead, it was the family members who had sent them to participate in the combat test. They were so nervous that they nearly fainted. They watched helplessly as the students entered the ancient city, as though they were about to have a heart attack.
Zhou Wen and company lined up to pass the test. They passed through the protective net and arrived in front of the ancient city's entrance.
The gate to the ancient city was already open, but there seemed to be a mass of fog inside. No matter how hard he looked, he couldn't see what was inside the ancient city.
"Stop looking. Hurry up and go in. There are still people queuing up behind us," urged the heavily armed soldiers guarding the gate of the ancient city.
Zhou Wen followed Li Xuan and company to the ancient city's entrance. Seeing Li Xuan and company walk into the ancient city, he followed closely behind them. However, when the three of them walked through the door, he couldn't see them.
He hurriedly walked into the fog of the door and immediately felt a strange sense of dizziness. He had goosebumps all over his body.
However, with just one step, the scene in front of Zhou Wen suddenly opened up. The fog in the ancient city seemed to vanish. He could clearly see the stone streets and the various ancient buildings with blue tiles and red walls on both sides of the streets. Li Xuan and company were walking in front of him, just a few steps away.
Those scientists speculated that dimensional zones are equivalent to another spatial dimension. From the looks of it, it does make sense, Zhou Wen thought.
After most of the students entered, they curiously sized up the ancient city like Zhou Wen.
Although they had already seen some images of Guide Ancient City in the school's videos, it was a completely different feeling when they were actually here. The ancientness and vicissitudes were something that videos couldn't capture.
The invigilator gathered all the students for the exam and informed them of some matters to take note of. Then, the combat test officially began.
All the students who were participating in the test rushed to the streets and alleys of the ancient city, hoping to kill the most Skeleton Soldiers and obtain a better result.
Of course, there were also people who held onto a sliver of hope. It would be even better if a few dimensional crystals dropped during the test.
The Earth Federation had clearly confirmed that the dimensional crystals dropped by students during the combat test belonged to the students themselves.
However, the invigilator had also made it very clear that everything that happened during the combat test was borne by the students themselves.
According to the Federation's laws, after becoming an adult at the age of sixteen, one could freely choose whether to participate in the combat test. The responsibility was also borne by the students themselves. Even if they died, the Federation wouldn't give them a single cent of compensation.
Unlike the other subjects that were filled with people, there were only a few hundred students participating in the combat test in a city. In the ancient city after the mutation, it didn't stand out at all.
Zhou Wen followed Li Xuan and company into the depths of the ancient city. In the beginning, there were too many students, so the Skeleton Soldiers that appeared weren't enough to kill. Li Xuan and company had no intention of snatching the other students, so they circled around the battlefield and headed deep into the ancient city.
Xu Miantu and Jiang Hao led the way. When they encountered Skeleton Soldiers, they were basically defeated in one strike. The horde of Skeleton Soldiers couldn't withstand a single blow and were indeed powerful.
Among the Skeleton Soldiers' skeletons, there was a bone the size of a rice grain. Each Skeleton Soldier only had one such bone. By collecting this bone, the combat test's score was determined by the number of bones.
However, the number of bones only determined the team's ranking. The ranking of the four in the team was determined by the number of dimensional crystals.
It was unknown if it was a coincidence, but the quartet headed in the direction that Zhou Wen had attempted in-game. As they charged forward, all the scenery was identical to in-game.
It wasn't only the ancient buildings in the ancient city. Even the number of Skeleton Soldiers that appeared was identical to in-game.
"If that's the case, won't we encounter the guy riding the skeleton horse later?" Zhou Wen thought about it again. It was already outside the test zone, so it was unlikely that Li Xuan and company would take the risk to head there.
However, things exceeded Zhou Wen's expectations. Xu Miantu and company stormed their way to the periphery of the test zone, but they didn't stop. Instead, they charged straight out of the test zone.
"Li Xuan, we have already left the test zone. Shouldn't we head back?" Zhou Wen said to Li Xuan.
Before Li Xuan could say a word, Xu Miantu said with contempt, "The test zone is only that big. The number of Skeleton Soldiers is extremely limited. Even if we snatch all of them, how many can there be? If you are afraid, wait here for us. There's no need to follow. "
