Chapter 462: The Assessment Ends
Gu Mang went to the assessment ground to take a look.
As a Hall Master should, Xing Zhi had his own ways of torturing others. He had not even provided the trainees with a watch to keep track of time with. Without knowing the time, the trainees had no idea when such a psychotic assessment would end.
Because they could not see the end, their minds had to constantly remain alert until the very last second. This was the most important form of mental training.
Every year, half of the trainees had mental breakdowns because they could not bear with such extreme psychological training.
After four hours at the assessment ground, Gu Mang slept in the little wooden hut at night. Early the next morning, she went straight to the technical team.
The mixed coding system was more complicated. Gu Mang and the technical team changed the original code and computed for another full two days before they saw some signs of improvement.
Meanwhile, the assessment had reached its grand finale.
Gu Mang and the whole technical team were still studying the loopholes in the control system. The sound of people tapping on keyboards and discussing issues filled the room.
Gu Mang stomped her foot down and her chair slid in front of another computer. Her beautiful fingers tapped on the keyboard quickly. Complex green code scrolled up the screen.
After dealing with one problem, she returned to the previous computer and continued to study the data. After quite some time, the communication device on Gu Mang’s wrist flashed twice.
“Silence, the assessment has ended,” Xingzhi said.
Gu Mang paused.
Missing Gateway, who had come to Gu Mang with debugging equipment, heard this and his eyes flashed with excitement. “Is the assessment over?”
Gu Mang glanced at him and nodded, wondering why he was so excited.
Missing Gateway’d smile could hardly be suppressed. “Does that mean that the Young Master can now join our technical team?”
Gu Mang was silent for a second. She ignored him and replied to Xing Zhi, “I will be there right away.”
At the empty land in front of the little wooden hut. The special training had started here. It had ended today and the trainees were gathered here just as before.
Six trainees stood with numb expressions. Their backs were straightened and their legs were tense. Their eyes were bloodshot due to sleep deprivation.
Gu Mang walked towards them slowly. Her exquisite eyebrows exuded a cold aura and she looked at them with her black eyes.
Gu Si blinked and his body shook slightly as if he were about to fall asleep. He clenched his teeth and forced his eyes wide open.
The others did the same.
They had fully relied on their willpower to stay awake until now. 72 hours was the longest anyone could stay awake.
Gu Mang said calmly, “Headcount.”
“One, Two, …, …, Five, Six—”
When Gu Si finished counting to six, Gu Mang could see that the trainees were exhausted. Tears were welling up in their red eyes, despite their efforts to keep them at bay. Their fatigue was really obvious.
Ten people came. Three died, one became disabled for life, and another had a mental breakdown. This was the highest casualty rate recorded during the four special training sessions so far.
Xing Zhi remembered that he had roasted a whole lamb for the trainees the night before the training began. Now, he felt a little queasy.
Gu Mang stuck both her hands into her pockets and her voice was low and calm. “Congratulations to all of you for completing the special training.”
After she spoke, there were no cheers. Only an overwhelming silence. Before coming to Red Flame, the trainees had all said, “I hope we will all be alive when it ends.”
There were only six of them left.
Number 9 was a girl and tears kept streaming down her face. “Coach, our casualty rate was 50%.”
Gu Mang looked over.
The girl shed tears expressionlessly. She raised her hand to wipe her tears but they flowed down again. The more she wiped, the more she cried. It was as if she had lost control over her eyes.
Gu Mang paused for a few seconds and looked at Xing Zhi. Then, she lifted her chin slightly.
