Chapter 6345
6345 Chapter 6343-deciding the top ten
Leng rufeng understood tacitly. He already had a guess and now he was even more at ease.
The two of them chatted for a while before Jiang He and the other two rushed in. Naturally, it was livelier now that they were all gathered together.
After four hours, the participants started coming back in groups of three to five. Lin Yi and the others knew that most of them were small groups that obtained the items through fighting. Some of them even had blood stains on their bodies, making no effort to hide the cruelty.
Ren Zhongyuan, Yi Xiaotian, and the others had also rushed back at the last moment. However, there were only five of them left in the end. It was clear that after Jiang He and the other two left, they had to go through a rather intense battle before they could gather the spirit confusion grass that the five of them needed.
“Time’s Up! The students who don’t return in time will automatically lose their advancement slots!” When the last wisp of sand fell from the hourglass, the middle-aged man from before immediately announced the result. In the distance, there was a student who was less than three hundred meters away from submitting his mission, but he was directly stopped by the people guarding the outer perimeter.
So close yet worlds apart, it was nothing more than this!
Looking at that guy’s dejected figure, those who had passed the test either pitied, laughed, or gloated. They all had different expressions. The one who returned at this time could only be the guy who had been exploited before but had saved his life and found the materials through his own efforts.
It was a pity that he was so close! One step to heaven, one step to hell!
“The first round was originally planned to pass one hundred and sixty places, but unfortunately, the standards of the students taking part in this year’s assessment are generally a bit low. In total, only one hundred and nine people have passed the first round of assessment. This is good news for you, but of course, it may also be bad news. The good news is that you only need to eliminate nine people to obtain a place to go to the mystic Sea region, but the bad news is that you’re likely to become one of those nine people. Where you go, you’ll have to grasp it well!” The middle-aged man had a smile on his face, but it was not a smile at all. Anyone who saw it would feel an indescribable awkwardness.
Those who had formed groups were all secretly regretful. They thought that if they had been more ruthless at that time and killed a few more people, they would not have needed to go through the second round of assessment!
Everyone felt that they would be the one to obtain a spot, but they were also afraid that they would be one of the unlucky nine. At this time, they were all waiting for the news of the second round of assessment. What exactly would it take to eliminate others and keep them?
“Alright, let’s cut to the chase. The second round of assessment is a test of everyone’s combat strength. It’s survival of the fittest, and it’s very fair. Everyone will be divided into ten groups, and the people in each group will have to go through one-on-one battles with all the other members. Each battle will last for one incense’s time. The winner will get two points, a draw will get one point, and the loser will not get any points. In the end, the person with the least points in each group will form a new group, and the winner will get the last spot. The loser will be eliminated. Is there anything you don’t understand?” The middle-aged man didn’t make them wait too long. He quickly announced the plan for the second round of assessment.
It had to be said that this assessment model was quite fair. Although it was possible to enter a group full of experts, and it was also possible for someone to enter a group full of chicken, there was still one loser who would advance. After all, there was still hope. Everyone had nothing to say after listening to it.
The small teams in the Alliance had now begun to think about what would be the most beneficial. If they could be placed in the same group and go through the motions with each other, not only could they preserve their strength, but they could also ensure that they would not be last. This was actually very beneficial.
“Oh, right, I forgot to mention a few things.” The middle-aged man squinted his eyes and smiled, as if he had really forgotten to tell her. After looking around, he slowly continued,”The top rankers of each group will form a new group to determine the top ten of this assessment. The top ten will have an advantage when they enter the Mystic division sea and take part in the entrance examinations of the various Academies. You’ll know whether it’s bonus points or something else when the time comes. Therefore, I advise everyone to fight for what you should!”
The audience immediately burst into a noisy exchange. Once the top ten was set up, the ambitious people immediately had a lot of ideas. Originally, they only needed to enter the top 100 and get a place, but now they had to go all out. Some of the competitions that could be modestly declined must not be given up.
No one would ignore something that the middle-aged man had brought up on purpose. Besides, it was a great honor to be in the top ten. When they reached the mystic division Sea area, the top ten would definitely receive more attention from the academies. No one could deny this hidden benefit.
“Alright, now everyone be quiet. We’ll start drawing lots at random. Pay attention to the number plate in your hand and don’t go to the wrong area for the assessment Group. If you do that, you won’t get any points.” The middle-aged man made a boring joke with a fake smile before signaling for the drawing of lots to begin.
Anyone who completed the first round to submit the task would have their number made into a new card and thrown into a box. Now the card in the box was put into the drawing box with a spiritual awareness restriction. After enough confusion, the number of each group was drawn.
The drawing this time was also very interesting. Other than the first number drawn by the middle-aged man, the rest were all drawn by the participants themselves.
For example, after the first person in the first group was drawn by the middle-aged man, he would draw his opponent in the same group. Then, the second person would draw the third person, and so on. All the opponents would be drawn by them. Whether they entered the group of death or paradise, they could not blame anyone else.
Of course, the 11th person from the first group would draw the 1st person from the second group. This was the only person who was not drawn from their group. There was no other way. The 109 people were divided into ten groups, with a maximum of 11 people in each group. The 10th Group only had ten people. If the 160 people were full, each group would have 16 people.
“First person of Group Seven, No. 106, come up to the stage to draw the second person!” A person who specially looked at the card records looked at the last number drawn from group six and immediately announced loudly.
The other groups that had finished drawing their lots gathered together and went to the designated training field to start the competition. Among Lin Yi’s group, only Leng rufeng was drawn into group Three, and Lin Yi was the second person to be drawn.
“They’re here!” Lin Yi raised his hand and jumped onto the stage easily. The spirit sense restriction on the box was quite simple, it could only block some weak spirit sense from peeking. Among all the people here, other than Lin Yi, no one else knew how to use spirit sense, so it was pretty useless.
