"50...49...48..."
The number of Mangniu was decreasing rapidly, and the fallen Mangniu carcasses once again became Zhang Junbao's natural barrier. Even without the Spiritual Force to control these carcasses, he could still make these fallen Mangniu a powerful aid in killing his enemies thanks to his strong battlefield control ability.
If these Mangniu had their own thoughts, they would be incredibly frustrated right now.
Because their battles with Zhang Junbao were mostly disrupted by their own companions, they could not unleash even half of their full strength.
Fortunately, these Mangniu were created in the virtual space and had no consciousness; otherwise, the herd would probably have been in chaos by now.
Given the temperament of a true demon beast, there's no reason not to take down a group of companions who are constantly blocking its way!
One after another, Mangniu charged towards Zhang Junbao, some of which employed tactics and knew how to use the battlefield environment to find opportunities for a decisive blow.
However, their tactics seemed far too naive when facing martial arts master Zhang Junbao.
Zhang Junbao kicked off the hind leg of another Mangniu, his body constantly shifting. The Mangniu he had kicked away was about to get up when it discovered that the sharp horns of another Mangniu were already attacking it.
"Puff"
A sharp bull horn grazed Zhang Junbao's heel and pierced his companion's body, while the bull itself was completely rendered incapacitated by the counterattack of another Mangniu.
Zhang Junbao is like a dragon returning to the ocean; the Roaming Dragon Startled Swan Steps" has a natural advantage when dealing with group battles.
A flash of cold light appeared, slicing through the hind hoof of a Mangniu that suddenly pounced in mid-air from an eerie angle! After cutting off the bull's hoof, Zhang Junbao pushed off with both feet, his body quickly sinking down, sliding forward, and actually hiding under the Mangniu's belly.
The Mangniu, out of control in mid-air, crashed into Zhang Junbao's sword. The immense force of the impact easily ripped open the Mangniu's belly, scattering its internal organs all over the ground.
Zhang Junbao's sword moves were continuous and powerful, each strike more powerful than the last, because each strike incorporated the residual force of the previous one—this was the " Neutralizing Force " technique he had previously used with Luo Feng.
There's no need to deliberately build up power, because every attack is a preparation for the next, never wasting a single bit of extra strength, turning your stance into a tool for power transmission.
Not only Zhang Junbao's body and weapons, but everything in the surrounding environment, including the Mangniu beast, was now just a part of his power in Zhang Junbao's eyes.
All the power simply passes from one Mangniu through his body to Mangniu.
He could transmit his power without affecting himself, or even amplify it, but a herd of Mangniu did not have this ability and could only let the power explode inside them.
Although it was just a trial, Zhang Junbao dared not relax in the slightest. To him, this was a true battle for life and death. It was precisely this extremely focused attitude that allowed him to fight his way out of the monster hordes in the Wilderness Zone time and time again.
Because if he relaxes his guard even slightly, death will await him!
Zhang Junbao blends himself into his surroundings, instinctively and skillfully utilizing every Mangniu or carcass without needing to think or process it.
Puff! Puff! Puff!
As a bull's head flew into the air, blood spurted out.
"14 minutes and 58 seconds, all 100 Mangniu killed, B-grade Test passed! Congratulations, trainee Zhang Junbao." The seemingly divine electronic voice echoed across the entire grassland.
Zhang Junbao felt that the Mangniu had completely disappeared, and he also withdrew from his state of being integrated with nature, but his face was full of a feeling of not having had enough.
Previously, finding such an ideal training environment was unimaginable, which raised Zhang Junbao's expectations for the Training Camp even higher.
If he can continue to have this kind of training environment, his improvement rate will be extremely fast!
"Student Zhang Junbao, you will automatically leave the virtual space in five seconds. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1..."
Elite Training Camp, Ninth Floor of the Nine-Story Tower.
Yang Hui had already logged out of the virtual space, but he was now lying on the sofa and didn't want to get up.
"In 14 minutes and 58 seconds, less than half the time, he actually passed through the first level without a scratch, which means that he has already fully acquired the strength of the second level."
"And this time is too fast! If I were to go through the first level again now, could I do it faster than him?"
Yang Hui began to doubt himself. He finally understood why " Iron Hand," the former head of Jiang Nian's Limitless Management, had previously resorted to brute force to suppress Zhang Junbao. It was because if they used the same amount of power, he might not be able to defeat Zhang Junbao. This feeling of being defeated was truly unbearable.
But when Zhang Junbao and Yang Hui walked out of the " Trial Room ", all the genius martial artists of various skin colors from all over the world looked over in surprise in the empty hall on the ninth floor.
Not even half the time had passed.
This timeframe is far too short! This newcomer's skill level is far too low. Could he really just be here for a trial run? Generally, martial artists participating in the assessment, even if they can't kill all the Mangniu within 30 minutes, should be able to last much longer. If someone doesn't even have this level of skill, it's highly unlikely they'll be recommended for the Elite Training Camp assessment.
At this moment, the bald young man with the yellow panel who had greeted Zhang Junbao earlier came over and asked, "Teacher, did he pass the test?"
Yang Hui didn't answer, but looked up at him with a somewhat cold gaze.
"Cough, it's okay if he didn't get it right. This brother is still young, he can try again next time." The bald young man smiled sheepishly, feeling that there was no need to press further, judging from Yang Hui's expression.
"Hahaha, I knew it! He'd only been in there for such a short time, he must have been killed by the monsters in the Trial Space. Maybe it was the first time he'd seen so many monsters, and his legs were trembling with fear!" The woman with the black panel who had previously mocked Zhang Junbao burst into laughter upon seeing this.
But when she saw the unfriendly look in Yang Hui's eyes, she immediately stopped smiling.
"He passed." Yang Hui said calmly, "I'll take him to complete the formalities. It's almost 1 p. m., you can begin your trial."
Train more, don't spend all your time trying to elevate yourself by belittling others. Remember, our enemy is the monsters Rampaging the Wilderness Zone, not humans!
After saying that, Yang Hui left with Zhang Junbao, leaving behind a group of astonished genius students.
As they emerged from the Nine-Story Tower, a light drizzle began to fall from the previously overcast sky. Zhang Junbao and Yang Hui both carried umbrellas as they walked out.
"Although there are only about 180 students here, it secretly involves the world's five major powers, as well as various families within the HR Alliance, etc. The waters here run very deep."
Yang Hui said in a low voice, " Zhang Junbao, you've become a member of the Elite Training Camp. As long as you're not eliminated, your future is destined to be brilliant!"
"In the Training Camp, the government and military will try to recruit you, some special organizations will try to recruit you, some families in the HR Alliance will try to recruit you... There may be various temptations such as money, beautiful women, and power."
But remember, the most important thing is your ability!
"Don't pay too much attention to those temptations. Your current target is a—"
"Strive for a higher ranking on the Training Camp leaderboard!"
"Including you, there are 181 students in total, each one a top genius. What you need to do is step on others and stand even higher!" Yang Hui said solemnly.
"You saw what happened just now, didn't you? No matter where you go in this world, there will always be people who look down on you. Only when you are strong enough can you shut them up."
I believe you will understand this principle.
In this era, might makes right, more so than debate!
