Contracted The Beautiful Triplets And I Gained The 10000x Rebate System - Chapter 21
Chapter 21: Knockout
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The rules of the mock exam had been polished to be very reasonable after so many years.
The only thing that changed was the content.
This year’s competition was divided into two parts.
The first part was the selection.
It was also called the knockout.
All the seeded contestants would face an alloy scarecrow whose outer skin was made out of special material.
They had to attack the scarecrow with all their might within a certain period of time.
The officials would judge the degree of damage they had caused to the scarecrow at the final settlement.
If straw came out, it would be considered a pass.
The scarecrow was completely covered in an alloy, and there were almost no gaps.
It would not be easy to achieve this.
However, the rewards were extremely generous.
“Those who pass the test will be qualified to join the Elite Special Training Class!
The host’s words ignited the fighting desire of all the seeded contestants present.
They were excited and rubbed their fists, ready to win.
The second stage was the competition.
The rules were two 2v2.
They would compete in martial arts.
The final victor would be decided from that.
The top three students could receive rewards of different levels that were jointly customized and issued by the five academies.
The higher the ranking, the more generous the rewards.
The moment this was announced, there was a heated discussion in the stadium.
Lin Bai’s eyes narrowed.
He had to admit that he was tempted.
The handbook given to him by the headmasters of the Fifth Academy was extraordinary, and it allowed him to learn a special ability.
What would it look like if the five academies worked together to customize something?
Lin Bai was determined to finish first!
Soon, the competition began.
The staff used a transportation tool to move the alloy scarecrow up.
The camera on the big screen changed to a close-up shot.
The host shook the name list in his hand and began to read.
“The first challenger is from the Fourth Academy, Meng Zicheng at Mortal Body stage 9. Please take your place.”
A young man with a sharp aura walked out of the formation and stood in front of the scarecrow.
“The challenge duration is one minute. The countdown begins!”
As soon as the host finished speaking, the young man’s eyes flashed like lightning. Using his hand as a knife, he ruthlessly slashed at the scarecrow’s arm.
Buzz!
There was a sharp sound.
The alloy vibrated, but its surface was intact.
The young man was surprised. He raised his hand and struck out again.
In the end, the scarecrow was still intact, but it made an even sharper cry.
“How could this be…?”
His face was filled with disbelief.
He had clearly used 100% of his strength. Even a diamond would have a crack. Why was there no reaction from the alloy?
The young man was a little flustered. Seeing that half of the time had passed, he could only attack again and again hoping to break the alloy on the arm of the scarecrow through repeated hammering.
Unfortunately…
A minute passed by in the blink of an eye.
Until the whistle sounded, he still did not achieve anything.
The relevant personnel immediately brought the equipment to the stage for testing.
“Tenacity 98%, strength 99%. Failed to cause any damage.”
The young man could not help but take two steps back when he heard the announcement, his eyes filled with shock.
“Contestant number one, please leave the stage.”
The host did not comfort him but continued, “Next, Zhu Ge from the Second Academy, Martial Artist stage 1. Please take your place!”
There was no need to change the scarecrow.
The young man from before left in a daze, and a student with a strong aura stood up.
He looked down on everyone and seemed extremely proud.
When he passed by the last challenger, he even sneered.
“The challenge begins!”
Buzz!
Just as the host finished speaking, the student named Zhu Ge suddenly clenched his fist, and his aura spread out. It formed a wave of clear air currents that could be seen by the naked eye.
It was a martial skill!
He was a student who had cultivated a martial skill!
Lin Bai could not help but take another look.
Martial skills were rare in high school.
Ordinary families would not have the chance to come into contact with them.
Lin Bai was very curious.
Under the circumstances of having a martial skill, would this person be able to achieve anything?
One minute was neither long nor short.
Zhu Ge’s face was full of confidence. The airflow around his body was all retracted into his fist, and he punched out fiercely.
Boom!
An explosion sounded.
The strong wind blew, causing the people nearby to involuntarily cover their eyes with their hands.
At the same time, they were looking forward to the outcome.
With such ferocity, he would definitely be able to pass the challenge, right?
Not far away, Lin Bai’s expression did not change. He allowed the strong wind to sweep through him, not even batting an eyelid.
“It’s not as powerful as I thought. It doesn’t seem like a very strong martial skill.”
He mumbled to himself as he looked at the perfectly fine alloy scarecrow.
Xu Kun, on the other hand, looked very interested.
“That’s so cool. If I learn it, my chances of successfully hitting on girls will definitely be much higher.”
“…”
Lin Bai could not help but laugh. As expected, his good brother’s focus would never be on the right place.
‘Oh, no… To him, the right thing to do is to pick up girls…
‘My bad!’
In the arena, Zhu Ge finally showed a serious expression when he saw that the alloy scarecrow was unscathed after his full-power attack.
“It’s not that simple indeed, but… I’m not that trash from earlier!”
He shouted in a low voice and aimed at the scarecrow’s joint.
It was where the alloy plates were welded, and it was relatively weak.
If it was continuously attacked in a short period of time, it might break.
Zhu Ge was very smart.
He knew that he could not break the alloy by force, so he began to target a weak point.
Unfortunately…
The school had taken precautions and had even fused a piece of the alloy on the welding points.
After Zhu Ge broke it open, he saw a flashing metallic luster inside and could not help but reveal a look of despair.
The countdown ended, and the staff went up to the stage again.
“Tenacity 89%, strength 93%. Failed to cause any damage.”
Zhu Ge had a bitter expression and became the second person to fail.
The challenge continued.
The defeat of the first two contestants did not affect the morale of the others.
The people who came after them all used 100% of their strengths to deal with it.
However, there were some things that could not be achieved through hard work.
If one’s strength was not enough, everything would be in vain.
More than a dozen students went up in a row, all of them were outstanding talents from their respective academies.
Nevertheless, the result was that not a single one passed!
Those with slightly better results were only able to bend one of the scarecrow’s arms or legs.
They could not even compare to Zhu Ge.
As for breaking the alloy, that was even more impossible.
The audience in the arena was in an uproar.
They all felt that the difficulty of the assessment this time was too high and that there would probably be very few people who could enter the second stage.
At this moment, the host announced an exciting name.
“Su Zi from the First Academy, Martial Artist stage 4. Please take your place!”
A wave of cheers suddenly came from the stands.
“Su, Zi! Su, Zi! Su, Zi!”
Under the attention of thousands of people, a beautiful and lovely girl with two ponytails walked slowly to the scarecrow with her long and fair legs.
She untied her school uniform from her waist and threw it on the ground. She stretched her body, revealing her alluring curves.
The cheer became louder.
