With a priority target in mind, Wang Tianyu set his sights on the other examinees.
All along the way, Wang Tianyu kept searching for other examinees.
Wang Tianyu's luck was good. In just ten minutes, he had robbed three examinees of their points and casually dealt with a giant wolf that had bared its teeth at him.
Wang Tianyu now had 25 points in hand.
A thousand examinees, a thousand giant wolves—the examination grounds contained a total of 3,000 points.
This martial arts examination only admitted the top 100. By calculation, one needed around 30 points to be considered qualified.
Wang Tianyu only had a little over 20 points at the moment. That was clearly not enough.
What was more, Wang Tianyu had a goal: to take first place in the martial arts examination.
Wang Tianyu did not know how many examinees had been eliminated by now. He needed to obtain as many points as possible.
The mountain serving as the examination grounds was vast, and Wang Tianyu's good luck seemed to have run out.
After walking for nearly another five minutes, Wang Tianyu had not seen a single target.
Anxious, Wang Tianyu quickened his pace.
Suddenly, Wang Tianyu stopped, because he heard the sounds of a fight coming from not far ahead.
Delighted at finding a target, Wang Tianyu immediately ran forward.
"Wang Hao, don't go too far! I already told you, I don't want the points from this giant wolf. Why are you still refusing to let me go?"
Before Wang Tianyu could make out the people fighting inside, an exasperated voice reached him first.
"The giant wolf's points are mine, and you have quite a few points on you too, don't you? I don't like multiple-choice questions, so I'll take both."
Passing through the dense woods, Wang Tianyu came upon a relatively open patch of grassland.
Wild grass over ten centimeters tall grew across the clearing.
The weeds had snatched every bit of nourishment from the surrounding soil, so no trees grew there.
Two people were fighting on the grassland, while more than a dozen giant wolves lay sprawled on the ground some distance away.
The giant wolves' score counters were plain white and looked extremely crude.
But Wang Tianyu noticed that the score counter on one giant wolf's ear was clearly different.
This giant wolf's score counter was blue and glimmered with a faint light, making it especially eye-catching.
Could this be the giant wolf with forty points?
This giant wolf was obviously different from the others, and Wang Tianyu immediately recalled Li Wan's words.
Li Wan had said that the points of the twenty examinees who withdrew from the examination would not be cleared.
Those twenty examinees had a total of forty points, and Li Wan had placed those forty points on a giant wolf.
This giant wolf with its high-value points would be different from the other giant wolves.
Although Li Wan had not specified exactly how it would differ.
Still, looking at the giant wolf with the glowing counter on its ear, Wang Tianyu instantly understood that he had found that lucky wolf.
"Wang Hao, someone else has come over. If we keep fighting, we'll only let him reap the benefits. Stop now, hear me? Everything here is yours."
Wang Tianyu made no effort to conceal himself, and the commotion he made as he approached was considerable.
Naturally, the two people fighting noticed Wang Tianyu's arrival.
One was fat and the other thin. The thin examinee was currently at an absolute disadvantage.
"Cut the crap. You can't run. Once I deal with you, I'll deal with this guy trying to be the fisherman."
The fat examinee was named Wang Hao. Hearing the thin examinee's plea for mercy, Wang Hao not only did not stop, but increased the force behind his attacks.
"Madman! You're a fucking madman!"
The thin examinee's aura grew weaker and weaker, while Wang Hao only became more valiant as he fought.
With his stamina declining and his fighting spirit already gone.
After only a few more exchanges, the thin examinee was knocked to the ground by Wang Hao.
Perhaps he had complete confidence in his own strength.
Only after knocking down the thin examinee did Wang Hao turn his gaze toward Wang Tianyu.
"Fisherman, are you going to test whether your net is sharp, or leave?"
Wang Hao's tone was calm, as though he did not take Wang Tianyu seriously at all.
"I really need these points."
Wang Tianyu had no intention of giving up so many points.
This Wang Hao was very strong, and he must have quite a few points on him.
Besides, there were so many giant wolves lying nearby.
Especially since one of them was a high-point giant wolf.
With his sights set on first place, Wang Tianyu had no reason to give up these things.
"Then there's no need for more nonsense."
Wang Hao went all out from the very first move, with no intention of holding back.
Since Wang Tianyu had seen his strength and still refused to leave, he must have something to rely on.
To be safe, Wang Hao directly used the most lethal move in the Basic Fist Technique.
This move came incredibly fast and contained countless variations, able to change at any moment.
It was a move that could only be used after cultivating the Basic Fist Technique to an extremely profound level.
Clearly, Wang Hao could definitely be considered a cultivation genius.
Unfortunately, Wang Hao had encountered Wang Tianyu.
Wang Tianyu had already cultivated the Basic Fist Technique to perfection, and he had several ways to deal with this move.
Wang Hao's fat body did not affect his speed.
Wang Hao's punch was extremely heavy. Combined with his enormous frame, it felt like a mountain bearing down on him.
Wang Tianyu understood the power of this punch well. He did not underestimate his opponent and hurriedly responded with a move of his own.
Wang Tianyu completely understood the hidden variations in Wang Hao's move, but Wang Hao could not see through Wang Tianyu's move at all.
Wang Tianyu evaded the changes hidden within Wang Hao's technique, then crossed fists with Wang Hao.
After their fists collided, Wang Hao let out a muffled grunt.
But Wang Tianyu's move was not so simple. The true killing move was his left hand.
The muscles in Wang Tianyu's left arm bulged as he viciously punched toward Wang Hao's chest.
Having just exchanged a direct blow with Wang Tianyu, Wang Hao had no time to dodge Wang Tianyu's left fist.
In his urgency, Wang Hao did not panic.
Wang Hao took a step back and chose to use his belly to take Wang Tianyu's punch head-on.
The fat on Wang Hao's stomach was thick, and he hoped to use it to lessen the damage he suffered.
Wang Tianyu's left fist landed solidly on Wang Hao's stomach.
This punch had been building power for a long time, making the fat on Wang Hao's body ripple violently.
Wang Tianyu's fist force was too great, and Wang Hao's plan to reduce the damage with his belly failed.
After taking Wang Tianyu's punch head-on, Wang Hao spat out a mouthful of blood.
Then Wang Hao fell backward, his fat body crashing heavily onto the ground.
"Ah, what a pity. This Wang Hao was quite a promising seedling too."
The director of the Martial Management Bureau had been keeping an eye on Wang Tianyu.
He had watched the entire battle between Wang Tianyu and Wang Hao just now.
"What's there to pity? Didn't you see the move Wang Tianyu used just now? That was a tenth-level move."
After retorting, Li Wan continued, "I just checked Wang Tianyu's information. His background is very ordinary, so he would not have had the chance to come into contact with these things in advance."
"Then there is only one possibility: he is a martial arts genius who cultivated the Basic Fist Technique to its full level in one month."
"Compared to Wang Tianyu, Wang Hao's potential is nothing."
Li Wan glanced at the director of the Martial Management Bureau beside him and stated his view on the matter.
"I saw Wang Tianyu's talent too, but this Wang Hao wasn't bad either. Still, he can only blame his own bad luck. Of all people to run into, he had to run into such a freak."
Wang Tianyu had no idea that his performance had drawn the attention of two important figures. At the moment, he was busy gathering his spoils.
"Sure enough, horses do not grow fat without night grass, and men do not grow rich without windfall wealth!"
Wang Tianyu obtained more than 200 points from Wang Hao's and the thin examinee's score counters.
Then, Wang Tianyu removed the score counters from the giant wolves on the ground.
In a short span of time, the points on Wang Tianyu's counter had multiplied several times over.
"Still not enough. These points definitely aren't enough to take first place."
Looking at the score counter in his hand, which now held nearly 400 points, Wang Tianyu was still unsatisfied.
Wang Tianyu's goal was clear: to take first place in the martial arts examination!
So, after collecting the points from the ground, Wang Tianyu continued searching for targets.
Wang Tianyu's strength could be said to be absolutely first in the examination grounds. Against the other examinees, he was practically crushing them.
After that, Wang Tianyu encountered many more examinees, and they all had quite a few points on them.
"The examination has ended. All examinees still in the examination grounds have passed the martial arts test."
These words rang in Wang Tianyu's ears three times in a row.
Hearing that the examination had ended, Wang Tianyu did not continue attacking.
"Haha, haha! Heaven has blessed me. Heaven has blessed me!"
An examinee stood opposite Wang Tianyu. His right arm hung limply at his side, but his face was full of joy.
Wang Tianyu had broken his arm with a single punch just now. If the announcement that the examination had ended had come a few seconds later.
Then he would definitely have been eliminated by Wang Tianyu by now.
The good fortune had come too suddenly. This examinee ignored even the pain in his arm and burst into loud laughter.
