Luo Yan had heard about the Sports Meet when he was an exchange student during the summer vacation.

I just didn't expect it to come so soon.

Knowing that Luo Yan wasn't very familiar with the Sports Meet, Li Bohang smiled and said, "The Mecha Academy Sports Meet is held every three years; this isn't the first time it's been held."

"In fact, the Mecha Academy already existed before the Undercity was built and put into use."

"I heard from my uncle that shortly after the discovery of Guixu, various countries began secretly establishing Mecha Academy."

"Before the ' Giant Beast Calamity,' our country already had 27 Mecha Academy."

"18 schools in the north, 9 colleges in the south, totaling 27."

"Every three years, a national Mecha Academy Sports Meet is held, but of course, it's always held in secret before the natural disaster."

"Now, with natural disasters erupting and the earth in chaos, it is naturally impossible to hold a national Sports Meet."

"In fact, even if all 18 schools in the North jointly host the Sports Meet, it's still uncertain whether all 18 Academy will be able to attend."

Zeng Shan exclaimed, "Even if not everyone is present, how many students must participate in such a grand event jointly organized by more than a dozen universities?"

Luo Yan then asked, "What events are included in the Sports Meet?"

Since this is the Sports Meet of the Mecha Academy, it shouldn't be just simple track and field events like swimming.

"Broadly speaking, it can be divided into two main categories: mecha application and student combat capability assessment."

"Each major category is further divided into groups and individuals, and both groups and individuals have numerous projects."

"Among them, the Forbidden Zone Combat is the most important aspect."

Li Bohang spoke eloquently, "Furthermore, to be fair..."

"The conference also divided participants into three groups: third grade, second grade, and first grade."

"Among them, the third-year group's practical training will reportedly take place in the ' Desperate Battlefield '."

"Of course, it's only on the edge of the Battlefield; the purpose is to let the students experience that atmosphere in advance."

That practical exercise was also known as the third-year ' Graduation Ceremony '.

Luo Yan's breathing was slightly heavy.

Desperate Battlefield!

At the time, Dr. Jia Miao said that a "Desperate Battlefield" is formed by the overlapping and adjoining of two or more desperate places.

There are only five ' Desperate Battlefield ' in the world.

One of them was located on the very land they lived on. What kind of Battlefield was it, and how dire must it have been to be called a 'desperate situation'?

Luo Yan had an urge to enter the Battlefield and find out what was going on, but unfortunately only third-year students could go to the ' Desperate Battlefield ', and he would have to wait another two years.

At this moment, Xiao Shi arrived, cleared his throat, and said with a smile, "Class, let's begin."

Li Bohang, Zeng Shan, and others hurriedly returned to their seats. Two rabbit ears peeked out from the classroom door, followed by Bai Qian, who was late.

Today, the girl was still wearing her Happy Bunny hat, but this time it was a pirate-themed one, which made the girl with the eye patch look quirky and mischievous.

Xiao Shi smiled and waved to her. Bai stuck out her tongue and sat down next to Luo Yan like a rabbit.

After the students quieted down, Xiao Shi took a piece of chalk and quickly wrote several large characters on the blackboard: Nightmare Giant Beast.

He put down the chalk, smiled, and looked around the classroom, scanning the young faces.

"I talked about the Overlord Giant Beast last time."

"Today, I'm going to tell you about what's called ' Nightmare Level '."

"So far, the highest level of behemoths we humans know of, in terms of information about them, is the ' Nightmare Level.'"

"As for whether there are other tiers above the ' Nightmare Level,' and how many there are, we have no idea."

Xiao Shi adjusted his glasses and said, "As we mentioned before, the Overlord Giant Beast possesses a ' Super Anti-membrane,' which allows it to manifest its beast soul and use Exotic Arts."

"These are the marks and characteristics of the Overlord Giant Beast."

"The Nightmare Giant Beast go even further; their ' Super Anti-membrane ' has an astonishing coverage area, capable of easily enveloping an entire region,"

"As for beast souls, Nightmare Giant Beast no longer simply exhibit this 'essence'; their 'essence' has been further sublimated, enabling them to undergo certain transformations when needed."

Luo Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, focusing intently on the instructor on the podium.

Xiao Shi picked up the cup containing goji berries, took a sip of water to moisten his throat, and then continued speaking.

"As we mentioned before, giant beasts, like humans, can cultivate and evolve."

"The 'changes' of the Nightmare Giant Beast are the result of cultivation and evolution."

"Their transformation gave them more 'human'-like characteristics."

"Some have human faces and animal bodies, others have animal heads and human bodies, and so on, the list goes on."

Xiao Shi seemed to remember something, and after a long pause, he finally spoke.

"Things like these, with human faces and animal bodies, or animal heads and human bodies, were not discovered in the 'Ruins of Return,' before the giant beasts appeared."

"Similar legends exist all over the world, such as Anubis, who has the head of a dog and the body of a man, or the strange creatures in the Classic of Classic of Mountains and Seas."

Therefore, scholars who study "Guixu" generally believe that the Jambu Realm Space may have been opened in ancient times, and giant beasts may have appeared there.

"These things are deeply imprinted in human memory, in our genes, passed down from generation to generation, and have evolved into legends."

These words sparked a flurry of thoughts among the students, who all sighed with admiration.

Clearing his throat, Xiao Shi smiled and said, "Let's get back to the main topic."

"The changes exhibited by the Nightmare Giant Beast, which possess numerous human-like characteristics, are what we call 'humanization' or ' Humanoid Form '."

"When they undergo this change, they become more dangerous, truly becoming a nightmare for humanity."

"In this form, the Nightmare Giant Beast can use a trace of ' Yin Sha ' power. By mixing this ' Yin Sha ' power with their own, they can not only use ' Exotic Arts,' but the scale, depth, and power of these ' Exotic Arts ' are also far beyond what the Overlord Giant Beast can match."

That kind of ' Exotic Arts ' is called 'curse'.

"Now let's take another look. Do the behemoths, starting from the Overlord Level, give us a feeling of ancient novels where spirits or monsters cultivate into human form?"

"This is especially true of the Nightmare Giant Beast's ' Humanoid Form,' so if there is a tier above the Nightmare Giant Beast..."

"Then the behemoths of this level might have completely abandoned their beastly forms and transformed into humans!"

In a laboratory, Lin Wei stepped away from the microscope and rubbed her temples, looking slightly tired.

Suddenly, footsteps sounded, and then someone rushed into the lab saying, "Xiao Lin, Dr. Jia Miao is looking for you. She's on Line 3."

Lin Wei raised her head, nodded slightly, then picked up the phone next to her and switched to line three.

"Teacher?"

Jia Miao's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Xiao Lin, I've cracked it."

"Item A. 346 has been successfully deciphered!"
