Rustle, rustle!
As soon as the middle-aged man in camouflage finished speaking, the platform, which had been relatively quiet, instantly became noisy, with qi and blood surging everywhere.
All the examinees were giving it their all, desperately running towards the gate entrance.
All sorts of methods for getting around were emerging one after another.
Many people seemed to have cultivated some kind of movement martial skill, leaping into the air and directly stepping on the shoulders of the crowd, running incredibly fast, which drew curses from the masses.
But none of them were as fast as a golden figure!
The moment the middle-aged man in camouflage spoke, Nangong Ao turned into a streak of golden light.
Everyone only saw a golden figure stir up a gust of wind before their eyes, flash past, and disappear.
"As expected of someone with the Speed Talent awakened! This speed is probably comparable to a car!"
"But I, Wang Long, am not to be outdone!"
Wang Long stared at Nangong Ao, who was leaving afterimages in his tracks, and snorted coldly.
Then he clenched his fists, let out a yell, and his arms, which were thicker than others' thighs, seemed to have expanded by another circle.
With a wave of his hand, he roughly pushed aside the crowd blocking his way.
In less than a moment, an empty space with people toppling over was left behind him.
In the Martial Arts Examination, as long as no lives were taken, there were no other restrictions.
"Xiao Ya, let's go too. We'll head straight for the core area and start killing fierce beasts from there!"
Xia Lin looked at the figures surging towards the wilderness area and drew the long sword at her waist, her expression resolute as she spoke to Zhao Yanan, who stood beside her with an equally serious expression.
With that, the two of them exerted their strength and rushed into the wilderness area.
"Hmph! If you all go to the core area, how can I, Bai Haoran, be left out!"
Li Ziyu pouted as he watched the students surging towards the wilderness area in waves like the tide.
"Everyone talks about how difficult and unfair it is, but when it comes to the actual exam, everyone is more eager than the last."
Li Ziyu wasn't in a hurry at all.
The entire Martial Arts Examination lasted for five days, and there were more than enough fierce beasts to kill. Even if he entered a little later than others, how many more fierce beasts could he kill?
Li Ziyu followed at the tail end of the main group, walking unhurriedly towards the wilderness area.
"Hmph! Kid, it's good that you know what's good for you!"
Inside the gate of the wilderness area, Nangong Ao had already entered.
His gaze had been fixed on Li Ziyu. Upon seeing that Li Ziyu wasn't only not with Xia Lin, but was also walking unhurriedly, Nangong Ao let out a disdainful snort.
For something as important as the Martial Arts Examination, which concerned one's future, to be so unhurried…
Nangong Ao believed Li Ziyu had surely recognized his own position and strength, and had probably given up on the exam.
With just a glance, Nangong Ao withdrew his gaze from Li Ziyu.
Someone as insignificant as a roadside weed like him was not worth the attention of a prodigy like him from Xujiang City.
His goal was to be first in the Xujiang City Martial Arts Examination!
Or even in the top ten of the entire Su Province Martial Arts Examination!!
Xia Lin and Zhao Yanan were also paying attention to Li Ziyu's movements. Seeing him walking unhurriedly at the back of the team, a hint of admiration flashed in Xia Lin's beautiful eyes:
"As expected of classmate Li Ziyu! Not only is his strength formidable, but his temperament is also so steady..."
"Compared to classmate Li Ziyu, I still have a lot of room for improvement!"
Kun City Examination Venue, edge area.
A ruined city, with broken walls and shattered tiles, and car wreckage everywhere.
Moss covered the ground, and the roars of terrifying fierce beasts could be heard one after another around the ruined buildings.
A pair of dark brown combat boots stepped on the wreckage of an off-road vehicle.
The wreckage of the off-road vehicle, which had been abandoned for who knows how many years, creaked under the pressure of the brown combat boots, unable to bear the weight.
The owner of the combat boots was a young man with short black hair, holding a knife.
At this moment, he was holding his knife in his right hand, gazing at the fleeting figure of a fierce beast in the distance.
"Although the edge area mostly has Level 1 beginner fierce beasts, and the qi and blood power obtained from killing them is not as much as from higher-level ones, their sheer numbers are enough for me to upgrade my martial skills to the peak level!"
If you think this book is good, remember to add it to your bookshelf to avoid losing it next time.
Li Ziyu looked at the fierce beast figure in the distance and muttered to himself.
There, a Level 1 beginner fierce beast that looked like a wild boar, but was several times larger and had tusks like curved blades.
"Level 1 beginner fierce beast, Sabertooth Wild Boar..."
"Main characteristic: tough skin and thick flesh..."
Other examinees might have to carefully maneuver and grind down a Level 1 beginner Sabertooth Wild Boar bit by bit.
But Li Ziyu didn't need to.
At his current level, he could easily kill a Sabertooth Wild Boar without any martial equipment.
Thinking this, Li Ziyu exerted force in his thigh, and with a bang, the crushed remains of the off-road vehicle beneath his foot dented heavily downwards.
He transformed into a black afterimage, charging directly towards the Sabertooth Wild Boar that was foraging.
As he approached the Sabertooth Wild Boar, it curiously widened its two blood-red eyes and lifted its head, trying to see where the sound came from.
However, as soon as the Sabertooth Wild Boar lifted its head, it saw a black long saber, enveloped in a hurricane, infinitely enlarging before its forehead.
The next second.
The Sabertooth Wild Boar felt a sharp pain in its forehead, and without even a grunt, it fell to the ground.
[Killed Level 1 Low-grade Fierce Beast: Sabertooth Wild Boar. Qi and Blood +0.03.]
Name: Li Ziyu.
Realm: Level 1 Advanced Martial Artist.
Combat Skills: Advanced Raging Bull Body Tempering Method, Vajra Body, Gale Saber Technique, Intermediate Saber Technique, Intermediate Movement Technique.
System: Martial God System.
Function: Can absorb all things to enhance Qi and Blood. Other functions await the host's independent discovery.
After instantly killing the Sabertooth Wild Boar with one strike, Li Ziyu opened the system's personal panel. His realm and combat skills did not show plus signs, meaning they couldn't be upgraded yet.
After a glance, Li Ziyu casually closed the system panel.
Then, he lightly tapped a few times on the silver-white bracelet on his right hand.
With a clear chime, a blue light flashed on the silver-white bracelet, and then a blue 3D virtual projection appeared before Li Ziyu.
1st Place: Nangong Ao, 50 points.
2nd Place: Xia Lin, 20 points.
3rd Place: Wang Long, 20 points.
4th Place: Bai Haoran, 20 points.
Killing a Level 1 Low-grade Fierce Beast is worth 10 points. Killing a Level 1 Mid-grade Fierce Beast is worth 50 points. Killing a Level 1 High-grade Fierce Beast is worth 100 points.
"It seems Nangong Ao is quite strong. He already has 50 points. It looks like he must have hunted a Level 1 Mid-grade Fierce Beast."
After glancing at it, Li Ziyu paid it no further attention. He moved his feet and continued to advance into the ruined city ahead.
Ding! Killed Level 1 Low-grade Fierce Beast: Sabertooth Wild Boar. Qi and Blood points +0.03.
Ding! Killed Level 1 Low-grade Fierce Beast: Sabertooth Wild Boar. Qi and Blood points +0.03.
The voice prompting his Qi and Blood points sounded like raindrops hitting banana leaves around Li Ziyu.
Li Ziyu glanced at the Sabertooth Wild Boar lying on the ground with its eyes wide open in death, retrieved the blood-stained long saber, wiped it casually nearby, and disappeared from the spot with a movement of his feet.
"Big Black, I'll use my speed advantage to lure the Sabertooth Wild Boar over, then Wang Liu Can, you two attack together. The three of us will ambush it!"
"Sabertooth Wild Boars have tough hides, and they also go berserk if the fight drags on. We need to coordinate well and aim for their vital spots!"
Wang Hao tightened his grip on his martial equipment, his expression solemn and serious as he instructed the two figures, one tall and one short, standing behind him.
The two figures nodded solemnly in response.
"Alright, then I'm going."
"The last hit goes to Big Black, then it's my turn, and finally Liu Can."
"If we take turns like this, in five days, our points will be enough for all three of us to get into an undergraduate Martial Arts University!"
Wang Hao said, a cunning smile appearing on his face.
This was a strategy they had discussed thoroughly.
What is this called? This is called brains!
It's a shame we couldn't find Brother Yu. Otherwise, we could have invited him along and helped him get into a Martial Arts University too.
Wang Hao's thoughts wandered, then he shook his head, collected his thoughts, and quickly walked towards a Sabertooth Wild Boar gnawing on garbage about seventy to eighty meters away.
