Outside the woods.
Ning Chuan separated a wisp of his consciousness and reached into the spatial ring in his hand, sensing a cubic space with sides of about two meters.
"The storage space is a bit small."
Ning Chuan shook his head.
In such a large space, even a long weapon would have to be stored along the diagonal.
However, Ning Chuan had no regrets.
The martial arts exam has only been going on for one day; there are still six and a half days to go.
There is plenty of time.
There will always be candidates who are richer than Feng Lingyi.
Ning Chuan opened the 3D map on his wristwatch, glanced at it, found a suitable spot emitting a green glow, and strode towards it.
Several hours later.
It was already midnight.
Ning Chuan traveled alone at a fast pace.
Tianshui City is not a modern city and has no streetlights, but tonight the sky is clear, the stars and moon are bright, and with the help of the drone's low-light technology, the photos are quite clear.
"Guys, I can't hold on any longer, I'm logging off now, I'll watch again tomorrow morning!"
"I won't sleep until the King Physique is asleep!"
"So what if King Physique is strong? He's obviously not very bright. The martial arts exam lasts for seven days. If he wastes too much energy in the beginning, how will he compete with other geniuses in the later stages!"
"Shortsighted! After a long day, you deserve a rest!"
Seeing this, those spectators who had previously dismissed Ning Chuan's martial arts as inferior became arrogant again and started making sarcastic remarks.
Few other audience members disagreed.
The words may be harsh, but the reasoning is sound.
The martial arts exam lasts for seven days, which is a long time, so you need to manage your energy wisely.
However, this viewpoint only lasted one night.
The next morning, countless spectators stared in astonishment as they clearly saw that Ning Chuan's eyes were bright and his stern face showed no sign of fatigue.
"I don't know whose brain is faulty, but it's definitely not King Physique!"
"To try to understand the King Physique with the eyes of an ordinary person is laughable!"
Many people left sarcastic comments, speaking up for Ning Chuan and becoming his fans.
Time flies.
Half of the martial arts exam has passed in the blink of an eye.
June 11th.
The sky was clear and the sun was high in the sky.
These past few days, Ning Chuan hasn't had a moment's rest; he's either on his way to find scorecards or battling with other people.
In particular, after the circle was narrowed down several times, the number of test takers became denser.
Ning Chuan experiences hundreds of battles a day.
However, his face still showed no signs of fatigue, and his eyes were bright.
"This stamina... what's the point of testing him? Just give him the top score!"
"Does anyone have Ning Chuan's contact information? I'm the chairman of the ' Men Who Use It All Say It's Good ' pharmaceutical company, and we'd like to have him endorse our product!"
"Um, a friend of mine wants to buy your products."
"Don't be ridiculous, seriously, King Physique is terrifying. None of the examinees he's encountered can stop him for ten seconds. He's clearly a burst-damage dealer, but his stamina is like the ocean!"
"A momentary outburst brings momentary pleasure, but continuous outbursts bring continuous pleasure!"
Ning Chuan's live stream room was incredibly lively, with a constant stream of comments.
After several days of accumulation, the number of viewers exceeded 20 million.
The personal sub-channel ranked first in popularity.
It outpaced the second-place team by more than double.
Splash!
A great river flows slowly, incredibly wide, with the distance between its two banks exceeding one kilometer.
Ning Chuan walked along the shore and casually opened a 3D map of Tianshui City.
Judging by the time, the red circle needs to shrink again.
"Huh?!"
Ning Chuan picked through them, somewhat surprised.
He was lucky this time; the red circle was right next to him, and the area inside the circle was on the other side of the river.
"However, it's not possible to cross the river directly."
Ning Chuan muttered to himself, glancing at the river, which was pitch black and deathly still.
The banks on both sides were barren and devoid of any vegetation.
This river is called the Tianshui River.
The name Tianshui City comes from this.
In the past, it was crystal clear, and many ancient people drank it directly.
However, during the Twin Martial Star War, it was contaminated by various poisons and the aftershocks of battles between powerful individuals, becoming extremely corrosive.
Let alone drinking it.
Ordinary wood, thrown in, will melt completely in a few seconds.
"If I want to cross the river, I'll have to use the bridge, but it's over a thousand meters long, and I can't jump across it right now."
Ning Chuan withdrew his gaze and looked at the 3D map of Tianshui City.
Soon, a bridge was discovered.
It's very close to him, only about ten miles away.
The map displays detailed information.
This bridge, named the Heroic Spirit Bridge, was built after the Twin Martial Star War to commemorate the soldiers who sacrificed their lives in the war.
Ning Chuan strode towards the Heroic Spirit Bridge.
He saw on the map that there were many places emitting a bright green light within the circled area.
at the same time.
The Heroic Spirit Bridge.
A young man with a gun arrived at the bridgehead; a black wristwatch on his wrist indicated that he was also one of the examinees.
However, his face looked too mature, with a thick beard, and he was at least twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old.
"Brothers, let's send some gifts! I'll show you what true dominance looks like later!"
The young man laughed at the drone in the sky and raised the battle gun in his hand.
Immediately, his live stream chat was flooded with comments.
The number of viewers reached over five million.
"Damn it, Li Haoyun is going to pull another stunt!"
"If you don't understand, just ask! Why is this test taker so big? I clicked in from the recommended page!"
A newcomer who had just entered the live stream was puzzled.
" Li Haoyun is a professional test taker!"
Many longtime viewers offered explanations.
The cap on broadcast fees for the National College Entrance Examination (NCEE) is staggering, often reaching billions of yuan, naturally fostering a mature industry chain.
Many people make a living by taking the college entrance exam, earning money through broadcasting fees.
Li Haoyun is one of the best among them.
In response, the government has formulated a number of relevant policies.
Federation citizens under the age of 30 are eligible to take the college entrance exam, and cannot take it more than 10 times. Each additional attempt will reduce their total score by 10%.
Bang!
Li Haoyun moved a huge rock taller than a person and placed it at the head of the bridge.
Then, holding his spear, he carved several large characters on it.
[Toll Fee: 1000 Points!]
Li Haoyun grinned and said, "Brothers, don't worry, there's only one bridge in the northeast of Tianshui City. Examinees will be coming over soon!"
Not long after the words were spoken.
A girl arrived, but Li Haoyun stopped her.
"Stop talking nonsense, I'm not going to give you a try!"
Li Haoyun snorted coldly, his Force surging around him, exuding a powerful aura that had reached the fourth rank.
However, he did not act immediately.
He planned to spend half a day stuck in traffic and needed to conserve his energy.
If it can be used to deter, then so be it.
The girl looked frightened and quickly pulled out a scorecard worth 1000.
She was only at the Awakening Stage Nine, far from being a match for him.
"That's right. The only Heroic Spirit Bridge. To get to another bridge would take at least half a day, and even a slight delay along the way might prevent us from reaching the safe zone in time!"
Li Haoyun smiled brightly, waved his hand, and gestured for the girl to come over.
Several more candidates arrived afterward.
One of the Second-Rank Martial Artist refused to give up, but Li Haoyun smashed his shield with several shots, forcing him to withdraw from the competition on the spot.
"These candidates are rather weak; they're probably the worst cohort I've ever encountered!"
Li Haoyun stood beside the boulder, shaking his head and sighing.
He's very good at creating entertaining content for shows.
As soon as these words were spoken, the live stream chat exploded with a barrage of comments.
"That's too pretentious. Can't some high-achieving candidate come and teach him a lesson?"
"It's practically impossible. Don't let Li Haoyun's despicable appearance fool you; in fact, his marksmanship is superb, his movements are swift, and in terms of skill, he ranks among the top candidates!"
"Those candidates who could potentially top the rankings would most likely only be able to force Li Haoyun to retreat, not force him to withdraw from the competition!"
"I knew it! How dare Li Haoyun bring his spatial ring this year!"
Many viewers left comments and discussed the topic.
"Another test taker has arrived!"
Someone reminded me.
Not far away, a handsome young man strode over, his expression indifferent, his temperament icy, and a long, narrow silver sword tucked into his waistband.
