No person or creature could completely hide their killing intent. They could only dilute their killing intent to a level where it was difficult to detect.
Ilmi pulled out the needle. Before he could put his thoughts into action, he released a wisp of killing intent, which then dissipated.
Because when he threw the needle out, he didn't deliberately target anyone. Instead, he held the attitude of throwing rubbish randomly. If it hit grass, then it was grass. If it hit flowers, then it was flowers.
Then the needle flew towards Xiao Jie.
Even the examiners, Bohara and Men Qi, only reacted after a while.
In the whole venue, only Law and Dongba noticed Ilmi's actions.
Both of them were people who had passed through the Dark Continent and were very sensitive to killing intent. So when Ilmi pulled out the needle, they immediately noticed it even if it was not targeted at them.
However, Dongba was sensitive, but he had no means to stop it. He could only watch as the needle was about to pierce into Xiao Jie's temple.
At this moment, accompanied by a soft sound, under the panicked gaze of Xiao Jie and Qi Lan, the needle suddenly changed direction, passing through several candidates and piercing into the wall.
The examinees who were almost caught in the crossfire did not realize that the danger had just passed by them.
Xiao Jie and Qi Lan stood in place, not knowing what happened.
Ilmi and Men Qi suddenly looked at Law, who was sitting in the corner, and saw that his posture did not change.
"It's too fast." Men Qi looked at Law and thought in her heart. She didn't even see what hit the needle and changed its trajectory.
Then, she turned to look at Ilmi, who was full of needles, and deeply felt the threat from this person.
This man is very strong!
Because of this move, Men Qi noticed Ilmi, who was always disappearing.
"It's gravel."
Ilmi saw clearly that it was only a grain of gravel that hit the needle.
Although the needle that was thrown out didn't contain the slightest telekinesis, and the grain of gravel had telekinesis, it was extremely difficult to make a grain of gravel hit the needle.
Ilmi looked at Law silently, as if he was looking at a sleeping tiger.
In his heart, he had the same evaluation as Men Qi.
Too fast.
Not only was he fast enough to catch up from behind, but he was also fast enough to not leave any trace after he raised his hand.
If it wasn't for the flight trajectory of the gravel, and Law was the only one in that direction, it would have been difficult to find the trace afterwards.
Yi 'er was puzzled by Luo's meddling in other people's business, but he didn't take the examiner's attention to heart. He pulled out another pearl needle from his body, wanting to kill any examinee casually and snatch a processing table.
Under Men Qi's cold gaze, Ilmi held the pearl head needle and was about to make a move, but his movements suddenly froze.
In that instant, a wisp of Qi that was as light as a breeze locked onto his right arm, as if it was instantly bound by countless iron chains. As a result, his arm did not move even when he thought about it.
That wisp of aura also came from that direction.
Ilmi turned his head and looked in the direction of the aura. Before his line of sight could completely shift, the aura disappeared in an instant. Then, he saw that Luo's sitting posture had not changed in the slightest.
Ilmi didn't feel any fear or apprehension, only deep confusion.
He was actually unable to attack because of a strand of Qi that could be easily dispersed.
"That won't do, I still have to kill one."
Ilmi said to himself in his heart. This time, he would not stop.
However, just as he was about to make a move again, an examinee in the venue finally finished steaming the meatball and excitedly carried the dish towards Bohara and Men Qi.
In an instant, the rising murderous intent disappeared without a trace.
Ilmi simply put away the pearl head needle and walked towards the empty cooking table.
The motive for killing was to occupy the cooking table.
Then, with the cooking table vacated, there was no need to kill.
This kind of motive was deeply ingrained in Ilmi's values, just like accepting a commission to kill. That was why he put it away so easily.
Law's eyelids lifted slightly, and he casually glanced at Ilmi's back, then went back to sleep.
Dong Ba watched from the side from the beginning to the end, and was not surprised by Law's rescue. However, he was certain that among all the examinees, other than Law, this strange needle man was the most dangerous.
The only person who felt the same as Dong Ba was Men Qi. She looked coldly at Ilmi walking towards the empty cooking table.
There were only 158 cooking tables in the venue, and there were 341 examinees. Only the most efficient examinees would be able to seize a cooking table first. As for the less efficient examinees, they could only line up obediently or use forceful methods.
This strange needle man was obviously very strong, but why was he so late?
If Men Qi knew that Ilmi was so late because he had spent the extra time thinking about whether to cook something he was not good at, she would not know how to feel.
At the cooking table, Qi Yan glanced at the strange needle man subtly and fearfully. He did not know that this strange needle man was the Ilmi he was most afraid of.
Little Jie came back to his senses, and found that he was covered in cold sweat, and his heartbeat had not calmed down.
At that moment, he thought he was going to die.
"What's wrong with you two?"
Leoli noticed that something was wrong with Little Jie and Qi Yan, and asked with concern.
Little Jie and Qi Yan looked at each other, not knowing how to answer.
After a moment, Little Jie shook his head, found an excuse, and ignored the matter, and focused on the dishes at hand.
Leoli saw this and did not ask any more questions. He put the finished lion's head into a bowl with a face full of confidence.
On the sofa, Bohara ate the lion's head that the third examinee brought over. Men Qi only glanced at the bowl of lion's head in disdain, then closed her eyes, no longer paying attention to the rest of the dishes.
Because she had seen Law finish the lion's head with her own eyes, she swept a glance across the entire venue. Everyone was a layman, and they did not even need to taste to judge that the taste was not up to standard.
"You pass."
Bohara did not say that it was delicious, and only announced that the third examinee passed.
Hearing this, the examinee waved his fist excitedly, then stepped back.
In fact, with Law's cooking first, the other examinees' lion's heads were not up to standard. However, Bohara was very hungry, and he was a little too hungry to be picky, so just like the original work, the standards of the evaluation were greatly lowered.
With the third, there was a fourth …
The examinees who came first served the lion's heads they made, and without exception, they all passed. Leoli also passed because he finished quickly.
As Bohara ate one bowl after another, the number of examinees who passed gradually exceeded 60.
It looked very easy, but Kurapika keenly noticed a slight change in Bohara's expression. Was he impatient, or was he having difficulty swallowing?
Noticing this, Kurapika vaguely reminded Little Jie and Qi Yan to hurry up, and then brought his own lion's head over, successfully passing the test.
Kurapika was not the only one who noticed it. Many examinees who were not weak in observation also noticed it.
They suddenly realized that from this moment on, the standard of passing the test was no longer deliciousness, but efficiency.
They had to serve the dishes as soon as possible before Bohara could not stand it anymore. If they could not, there would be the first failure.
Realizing this, the atmosphere in the venue changed. At the same time, in order to compete for the limited number of dishes, there was a dispute between the examinees.
