It was noon.
The main group had already reached the foot of Divine Mountain.
Most of the Converted Beasts dwelling here were two-star and three-star.
For ordinary people, this was a deadly place, but for these gifted students, it was the perfect time to show what they could do.
Many students with lower cultivation chose to begin their assessments right here.
Killing a single three-star Converted Beast would count as a pass.
But that was nowhere near enough for Wang Shengnan.
Her target was at least a six-star Converted Beast.
Whoosh!
A fire serpent as thick as an arm let out an angry roar.
In the blink of an eye, it pierced through the two-star Converted Beast blocking their way.
Lingzi smugly brushed the snow grains off his hands, then turned back with a smile. "Shengnan, we can keep going."
Afterward, he did not forget to shoot Hi Dog and the others a provocative look. "See that? This is an Awakened."
"Badass, badass."
Hi Dog yawned and clapped listlessly.
"Keep moving."
The latter headed toward the summit, expressionless.
As they climbed higher, fewer and fewer students remained.
By the time they reached the ridge, only a few hundred students were left.
The Converted Beasts here were mostly three-star and four-star.
The danger increased greatly.
Xiaomai considerately supported Little Pig as they walked through the knee-deep snow.
"Useless bastard." Lingzi curled his lips resentfully.
"This Lingzi... is the son of Panshi Company's boss. His father and Xiaomai's father have risked their lives for each other." Su Wanfang slowed down to walk beside Hi Dog, introducing him with a smile. "He and Xiaomai grew up together. Heh, he's been pursuing her for years."
"He isn't deliberately targeting you. Put yourself in his shoes. No one could accept something like this."
