Master Of Martial Arts Has An Advanced Optical Brain Novel - Chapter 257
Chapter 257: The Real Test Begins
Angie Prairie stood on the top of a small mountain and looked around. She suddenly felt bored.
To be honest, she had indeed been a little “lazy” in the past three days.
This was because in these three days, her main task was not to hunt ferocious beasts, but to search for those injured examinees everywhere and treat them. Most of the time, hunting beasts was only something she happened to encounter.
In her opinion, Star Cloud Academy had thrown more than 3,000 examinees here to fight the ferocious beasts in one go. It was simply providing her with the best place to experiment. If she did not make good use of it, it would be too wasteful.
However, even so, with her powerful strength, she could still maintain her ranking in the top hundred and was not too far behind.
In the past two days, because the examinees had not completely dispersed, there were many opportunities for Angie Prairie to treat the injured examinees, causing her to be extremely busy.
On the third day, the examinees were already scattered on this huge continent. It was not easy to meet each other, so there were naturally not many opportunities to treat them.
Therefore, Angie Prairie felt a little bored.
With her strength, ordinary D-rank ferocious beasts were not a threat to her at all. There were only three C-rank ferocious beasts in the entire Continent 3, so she could not touch them even if she wanted to. Therefore, she could not even seek some stimulation.
“Perhaps I should work harder to increase my points and try to suppress Feng Mingxi?”
Angie Prairie opened her personal terminal and chose to take a look at the real-time scoreboard. She discovered that Feng Mingxi was still ranked first, and his points had even exceeded 400.
On the other hand, because she had saved a small team of examinees in the morning, she had wasted some time and her points had not increased much. She only had a mere 218 points, and her ranking had already fallen to the 97th place. She was about to fall out of the top 100.
“Yes, I indeed have to work harder. Even if I can’t surpass Feng Mingxi in the end, I can’t be too low. Otherwise, Master might scold me.”
Angie Prairie rolled her eyes and searched for “Chu Nan” on her personal terminal. She discovered that he had 131 points and was ranked 249th.
“Eh? This guy is rising quite quickly.” Angie Prairie was a little surprised.
She had been paying attention to Chu Nan’s situation through the real-time points ranking for the past few days and knew that his initial ranking was very low. However, as time passed, it was quickly increasing. Now, on the afternoon of the third day, it had actually increased to this ranking, proving that he had been working very hard these few days.
…
“No matter what, I can’t let this guy surpass me, right?” A competitive thought suddenly arose in Angie Prairie’s mind. She gently waved her fists and felt motivated.
However, just as she was filled with enthusiasm, she discovered that Chu Nan’s points had suddenly increased by 10 points, turning into 141 points. His ranking had also increased from 249th to 217th, increasing by more than 30 positions in a row!
“Hmph, this guy’s luck is not bad. He actually encountered another D-rank.” Angie Prairie curled her lips, turned off her personal terminal, and rushed down the hill.
She seemed to have seen a large ferocious beast appearing in that direction just now. If it was a D-rank ferocious beast, that would be great!
…
Sun Xiangren woke up from his short sleep.
For three consecutive days, this was the first time he had truly rested.
Although he had only slept for less than half an hour, it had already made him feel much better.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Zhao Zhiming standing in front of him with a serious expression.
Sun Xiangren blinked and immediately understood.
“Is it time?”
“Yes.”
Zhao Zhiming nodded and opened his personal terminal, revealing a huge terrain map on the virtual screen.
On this map, there was a large pile of flickering green light spots scattered in different places. They looked as dense as stars.
“Look, most of the examinees have already broken through the E-rank area and entered the D-rank area.”
Sun Xiangren glanced at it and gently exhaled. He stood up, his expression also becoming serious.
“In other words, most of the examinees are going to start facing D-rank ferocious beasts at a higher frequency?”
“Yes.” Zhao Zhiming waved his hand, and the light spots on the map flickered, turning into another pile that was even denser, but they flickered with red light. “This is the real-time location monitoring of the D-rank ferocious beasts provided by the Declan Empire. According to the monitoring, from this afternoon, the examinees will begin to come into contact with and fight a large number of D-rank ferocious beasts.”
Sun Xiangren chuckled, “Therefore, strictly speaking, the true test starts this afternoon. It’s useless no matter how many points you obtain from those E-rank ferocious beasts. The most important factor in determining their final results is who can kill more D-rank ferocious beasts faster.”
“Yes. However, we have to consider another situation. After the examinees started to come into contact with a large number of D-rank ferocious beasts, the possibility of them being threatened greatly increased. Just now, a few examinees were heavily injured because they encountered a large group of D-rank ferocious beasts, the Storm Killer, and were forced to choose to leave the test.”
“Has the mainframe A.I. activated the real-time information monitoring of the examinees and D-rank ferocious beasts?” Sun Xiangren asked.
“It’s already activated.”
“That’s good.” Sun Xiangren nodded. “If you discover that an examinee is about to encounter a ferocious beast that exceeds his strength, you have to immediately prepare and save him at any time. There can’t be any mistakes.”
“Don’t worry, we’ve prepared a hundred rescue teams above Continent 3. Moreover, we always have 15 reserve rescue teams. There won’t be any problems.”
“That’s good.” Sun Xiangren suddenly smiled, “Old Zhao, it’s really been hard on you this time. It’s really tiring for you to be a nanny for so many children.”
Zhao Zhiming also smiled and shook his head. “This is nothing. After all, it’s the academy’s job. Protecting the children is our most important mission. Didn’t you also work hard for this for a few months? You’re much more tired than me.”
“Yes, it doesn’t matter if we’re a little tired. As long as these children can safely pass the test, and a few more powerful martial artists appear in the future, it’s worth it no matter how tired we are.”
Hearing this, Zhao Zhiming’s heart stirred. He paused for a moment and said, “Do you know what Chu Nan’s ranking is now?”
Sun Xiangren was stunned, “Wasn’t it at 287th in the morning? Even if it can increase now, it can’t be much higher, right?”
Zhao Zhiming chuckled and operated his personal terminal, letting the virtual screen display the real-time points ranking before searching for Chu Nan.
“192? How is that possible?!” When he saw the ranking displayed after Chu Nan’s name, Sun Xiangren could not help but exclaim, “It has only been less than two hours since we last saw him, right?”
“What if I tell you that he was only ranked 273rd an hour ago?”
Sun Xiangren frowned and narrowed his eyes slightly.
“What did he do in the past hour?”
“He didn’t do anything. He just happened to encounter many D-rank beasts.”
Zhao Zhiming operated his personal terminal again and displayed the real-time monitoring map of the D-rank beast. Then, he adjusted it and a green dot appeared in the red dot representing the D-rank beast.
“Look, this is Chu Nan.”
Sun Xiangren took a look and immediately widened his eyes in surprise.
“This is too dangerous!”
On this real-time monitoring map, there were a dozen red light spots gathered around the green light spot.
This meant that Chu Nan should be surrounded by more than ten D-rank ferocious beasts.
“Hey, Old Zhao, what are you waiting for? Why aren’t you sending help?” Seeing that Zhao Zhiming still looked indifferent, Sun Xiangren could not help but say angrily.
“Don’t be in a hurry to get angry.” Zhao Shiming waved his hand, still wearing a relaxed smile, “Look carefully.”
Sun Xiangren was stunned for a moment before looking at the virtual screen again.
A moment later, a red dot surrounding the green dot suddenly disappeared.
According to the characteristics of this real-time monitoring, it meant that this D-rank beast had already lost its life.
Sun Xiangren frowned, “How’s Chu Nan’s current situation? Can he still hold on?”
“Don’t worry, not only can this kid hold on, he’s simply having an easy time.”
Just as Zhao Zhiming smiled and replied, another red dot disappeared.
Sun Xiangren was slightly stunned.
“Is this Chu Nan… really only at the initial-stage Internal Breath Realm?”
“I told you long ago that you can’t judge this kid with common sense.” Zhao Zhiming smiled proudly, “Just wait and see. He’ll definitely surprise us even more next.”
Sun Xiangren stared at the virtual screen in silence.
Soon, another red dot disappeared.
