I Will Face You as the Final Enemy of Your Preliminary Selection Trial

Thinking of this, Lin Yuan suddenly felt that this Soul Bone actually smelled quite good.

Just consider it saving it up.

As Lin Yuan pondered this, he activated the Voice of the Stars.

'This, this, this, and this are all the best.'

Lin Yuan sensed the frequency emanating from one of the nearest stars in the Simulation starry sky.

They chose six spots with the best rewards and stood there. Immediately, a series of voices rang out.

"Made by the Spirit Pagoda, a piece of Right Arm Soul Bone from two thousand years ago."

"Made by the Spirit Pagoda, a Right Arm Soul Bone 1,500 years ago."

"Made by the Spirit Pagoda, a Head Soul Bone."

The first five times were Soul Bone, the last time, a final voice rang out:

"One black badge."

At this moment, Ling Yiyi appeared, her expression extremely strange:

"You've really snagged all the best prizes from the roulette wheel right now!"

Lin Yuan:...

"May I leave now?"

But to everyone's surprise, Ling Yiyi shook her head.

"No?"

"Yes, the assessment has actually already begun."

"Given your performance in the last assessment, which significantly disrupted the balance of the assessment, you will be staying here with me for some time until the two sides have fought to a certain point. At that time, you will be the final enemy."

The ultimate enemy?

Lin Yuan's interest was immediately piqued.

As soon as these words were spoken, a counting board appeared on the sky, showing the number of candidates from the Tianluo Academy, Heaven-Soaring Academy, and other Academy, totaling more than 70,000.

The counter quickly started jumping, and in an instant, the number of people over 70,000 became over 60,000.

In less than ten minutes, more than 10,000 people were eliminated!

Ling Yiyi's gaze wasn't on the counting board, but rather on Lin Yuan, her expression complex.

"Speaking of which, your first time ending the auditions actually reminded me of someone I used to know."

"Old friend?"

"Yes, his name is Zoffy." Immediately after mentioning Zoffy, Ling Yiyi started chattering away, becoming more and more excited as she spoke, and even lost her most basic professional smile.

"Sigh, the Academy is in such a mess these days. If Zoffy were still here, things would be so much better," Ling Yiyi said with a sigh.

"You don't actually like him, do you?"

Lin Yuan looked at the purple-haired girl in front of him, and his eyes immediately became strange.

Seriously? Ling Yiyi in the original novel wasn't this infatuated.

To everyone's surprise, Ling Yiyi nodded generously upon hearing this:

"Yes, I like him a lot. Not only do I like him, but many girls like him too. After all, who wouldn't like a ray of light suddenly appearing when they're in dire straits?"

Lin Yuan:...

My damn charm.

While Lin Yuan and Ling Yiyi were talking, four days passed in the blink of an eye.

When Ling Yiyi saw that the number on the counter had reached four thousand, it was no longer advisable to go any further, and she said:

"Alright, that's enough for now. You can go out."

"However, I must remind you that the Smart Brain has now notified everyone that you are the final enemy. They will likely unite, and what you need to do now may be slightly Transformation from before."

"Before, you were the one eliminating others; now, what you need to do is try to survive longer."

Lin Yuan:...

Are you going to unite against me?

Fighting the world boss from a distance?

"Okay, I understand."

Lin Yuan nodded, then stood up, stretched, and walked towards the pink door.

"Honestly, are you even listening to me?" Ling Yiyi was speechless. Then, Ling Yiyi muttered to herself, "Let me think about what kind of title or something to give you, my ultimate enemy."

In the Douluo World, in the Simulation forest.

At this moment, the battlefield was filled with smoke and fire. Broken trees, burning grass, and billowing black smoke all indicated that a battle that could be described as a small-scale war had just taken place.

But just then, a sudden broadcast sounded in everyone's ears.

[Attention! Bloodshed and carnage have left a lingering legacy. All examinees have successfully triggered the hidden quest: Defeat the final enemy. (Note: Defeating or dying will not be recorded in the final selection score. Defeating the enemy will grant students a reward upon entering Shrek Academy, based on their contribution. Failure will not incur any penalty.)]

At the Heaven-Soaring Academy, Bing Tianliang stood on a hillside, looking down at the open space with his hands behind his back. Although he was only twelve years old, he gave the impression of a long spear with its blade drawn, its sharpness fully revealed.

Upon hearing the words "[final enemy]", even he couldn't help but feel a little worried.

'Is Shrek going to pull some kind of trick again?'

He is Four-Ring Soul Ancestor, Martial Soul is the Electric God Demon Puppet.

He is undoubtedly the number one student at the Heaven-Soaring Academy.

However, all the variables came on the day of the audition.

That day, facing the towering, surging lava that blotted out the sky, he experienced for the first time what utter despair meant. How could human strength possibly contend with the might of heaven and earth?

His classmates were wailing.

He initially thought it was just a minor accident caused by Shrek Academy, but when the results were actually released and he saw the infinity symbol that filled him with despair, he fell silent.

He fell silent. With his intelligence, he could tell that the volcanic eruption was likely related to the first place winner, the legendary Child of Stars!

He wanted to confront the Child of Stars head-on, so he refrained from making a move during the large-scale battle between the Tianluo Academy, other Academy, and his own Heaven-Soaring Academy, waiting for the Child of Stars to arrive.

But after waiting and waiting, the Child of Stars never arrived; instead, his younger brother appeared instead?

"Bing Da, this guy's name is Lan Xuanyu. He's quite good-looking. He says he's the younger brother of the Child of Stars, and he's here to talk to us."

"What's there to talk about, Ice Master? Now is the perfect opportunity. This guy dares to call himself second and even dares to come alone. Why don't we seize this chance and eliminate him?"

The boy next to Bing Tianliang summoned a long-handled sword, as if he would immediately strike with it at Bing Tianliang's command.

Bing Tianliang looked at the fearless Lan Xuanyu, raised his hand to stop him, and said calmly:

"What's there to talk about? If I'm not interested, you're not leaving."

Looking at Lan Xuanyu, who was covered in dust and was less than 1.5 meters tall but still quite adorable, Bing Tianliang couldn't help but think that he didn't look like the runner-up in the preliminary rounds at all.

"You heard the announcement just now, right? It's what we'll ultimately have to face."

Lan Xuanyu's voice was equally calm. Even though he was a head shorter than Bing Tianliang, he was in no way inferior to Bing Tianliang.

Upon hearing this, Bing Tianliang suddenly laughed:

"So, you want to join forces with us? I can tell you, it's impossible. I admit, the support abilities you displayed in our previous battles were indeed impressive, but have you considered that we have absolutely no need for that?"

Upon hearing this, Lan Xuanyu remained unfazed. "You don't need to trick me. Actually, when I came here earlier, you probably also had thoughts of forming an alliance, right? This kind of pressure is unnecessary. Third place."

"You!"

Bing Tianliang and his group were instantly enraged.

At this moment, Lan Xuanyu was no longer the obedient person he was in front of Lin Yuan. Seeing Bing Tianliang's gloomy face, he said indifferently:

"To be honest, I know what you're thinking. You actually still want to join forces with us, right?"

"Don't misunderstand, I've already investigated you thoroughly. I know you have someone you want to protect, and you'll definitely fight tooth and nail for resources to give her a better chance of getting into Shrek. I'm the same; I have someone I need to find, and I need to ensure that person isn't affected during the assessment. I need a bigger stage to showcase myself."

Bing Tianliang glanced at the girl beside him, whom he had grown up with, remained silent for a long time, and finally sighed:

"Okay, I promise you."

"Then I wish us a pleasant cooperation." Lan Xuanyu immediately beamed with joy.

"Listen up, everyone..."

Bang!

Just as Bing Tianliang was about to give the order, a student wearing the Heaven-Soaring Academy uniform suddenly fell from the sky!

"Bingda, he, he's here."

"Who's here?" Bing Tianliang looked back.

The next second, a figure was seen walking across the scorched and collapsed earth, passing between broken trees. Under the vast sky, a ray of afterglow fell on him, and he became the focus of everyone's attention.

"So they've all gathered together? That's good, saves me the trouble of searching for them one by one."
