Just as everyone was discussing, a faint sound came from ahead.
Everyone instinctively fell silent, their gazes fixed ahead.
"Instructor, Shen Heng's data is wrong!" Yang Xu said again, looking at Zhang Chenguang who had stood up.
Zhang Chenguang did not reply immediately, but glanced at Shen Heng first before looking at Yang Xu.
"No problem, he did kill that many Calamity Beast, and he was indeed the third best in this simulation!"
"Ah, this?"
Everyone opened their mouths, unsure of what to say.
Shen Heng was the only one with D-Class ability among the 30 people in their first training camp.
Compared to third place, 29th or even 30th place in the last simulation was more in line with their assessment of Shen Heng.
Just like in Instructor Cao's combat training, Shen Heng's ranking was never high.
That's more in line with their perception of Shen Heng.
But now, the statement that the data is fine came from Instructor Zhang's mouth, which means...
The crowd looked at Shen Heng with a variety of expressions: some were shocked, some were puzzled, and some were still confused.
Yang Xu's face turned pale as he struggled to say, "How could such a thing be possible?"
Zhang Chenguang glanced at Yang Xu, then raised his hand and waved.
Everyone felt a sudden darkness before their eyes, and then it remained dark.
"What's going on?"
"Someone asked from the darkness."
"I don't know, it seems Instructor Zhang used his abilities on us again just now!"
Why would you use your abilities against us?
"Maybe they wanted to tell us how Shen Heng did it?" someone recalled their conversation before they came in.
"So what's going on with this complete darkness now?"
Silence. No one answered, and they didn't know either.
This looks like a subway station.
In the darkness, a human being whose abilities include some night vision.
"Metro station?"
"Ah, I understand!" Lü Wenrui's voice rang out from the darkness.
"What do you know?"
" Shen Heng must have heard that there were Calamity Beast Calamity Beast sleeping here, so he sneaked over and killed them!"
"Hey, Lü Wenrui, stop talking nonsense. Shen Heng's ability isn't Wu Hongxuan's. Even if he discovered it, he would have come over. How could he not have been discovered by the Calamity Beast?" Zhou Xuan retorted from the darkness.
"I..." Lü Wenrui was speechless for a moment.
Just then, a footstep sounded in the quiet subway station.
Then, a figure carrying a torch descended the steps in the distance.
"See, I told you so!" Lü Wenrui exclaimed excitedly, "I told you Shen Heng came here because he discovered the hideout of the Calamity Beast!"
Zhou Xuan pursed his lips; this time, he was speechless.
However, he still didn't quite understand how Shen Heng, whose ability was only Sound Wave Perception, managed to kill the Calamity Beast Calamity Beast after discovering its lair.
It's impossible that the Calamity Beast was killed while it was asleep and didn't move, as Lü Wenrui said.
He wasn't the only one with this question; others shared it too.
Wu Hongxuan stared intently at the approaching figure.
He encountered his opponent before the simulation was even over.
At that time, he thought the other person had given up on finding the Calamity Beast because there was only half an hour left, while he was still thinking about finding the Calamity Beast to fight, so he ignored the other person.
Unexpectedly, when the simulation ended, the opponent had surged to third place.
In other words...
Were they actually on their way to execute some plan at that time?
Wu Hongxuan looked around. The originally dark environment gradually brightened as the torches approached, and he could see that it was a subway platform.
He didn't believe Lü Wenrui's claim that the Calamity Beast Calamity Beast was sleeping, and then Shen Heng came and killed it.
If that's the case, then there's no need for the Calamity Beast to exist!
A figure carrying a torch approached the group.
He held a torch in his right hand, a bundle of firewood in his left, and his long sword, which served as his weapon, was tucked behind his waist.
He looked around, then, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, went to the edge of the platform and jumped down onto the tracks.
"What's going on? Is the Calamity Beast inside the tunnel?" Lü Wenrui asked, somewhat puzzled.
"What you said isn't nonsense, that's for sure!" Zhou Xuan replied.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Shen Heng repeated his past actions.
Move forward, stop, smash a hole, stick a fire in the hole, raise the knife...
Looking at Shen Heng's repetitive and silent movements, everyone couldn't help but feel puzzled.
"What's going on? And why didn't the knife make a sound when it hit the wall?"
Upon hearing this, everyone began to ponder.
Wu Hongxuan did the same, silently watching the scene before him.
Shen Heng's ability is Sound Wave Perception; it's said he can manipulate sound waves in a simple way.
If there's no sound now, it means the other party has focused their sound waves. At this point, the simulation is almost over. Why would they focus their sound waves?
A moment later, Wu Hongxuan raised his eyes slightly, just as he was about to speak, when a calm female voice rang out from inside the tunnel.
"At this moment, he must be using his voice to attract the Calamity Beast outside!"
Xiao Xiangtong explained, then turned to look at Shen Heng in the corner.
"Yeah?"
"Hmm." Shen Heng nodded calmly.
"So it wasn't a sleeping Calamity Beast after all!" Lü Wenrui said with some regret.
The past continues.
Soon, the sound of sharp claws stomping on the ground rang out, and one after another, Calamity Beast emerged from the darkness in the distance.
Just as everyone was wondering how Shen Heng would resolve the situation, Shen Heng raised his knife and struck the railway track.
"Ah, I know!" someone exclaimed.
"If you know, you know. Don't just blurt it out, it'll scare you to death!"
"Hey-hey..."
"Alright, what do you know?"
"Tunnels can amplify sound waves, this..."
The past continues.
Everyone's smart enough that when someone mentioned the tunnel's amplification of sound waves, they understood how Shen Heng had killed the Calamity Beast in just one minute.
Soon, the image disappeared, and everyone returned to the lecture hall.
"So that's how it is!" someone exclaimed.
"Hmm." The person next to him nodded, then said:
"But the tunnel amplifies sound waves way too much, doesn't it? I wonder if there are any environments that can amplify my abilities."
"Don't overthink it. Most abilities, except in specific environments, are difficult to weaken significantly, but also very difficult to..."
Everyone seemed to have been enlightened and began to exchange ideas enthusiastically, except for one person.
Yang Xu sat there with a gloomy expression, his eyes glancing at a figure.
Noticing that he was being watched, Shen Heng turned his head.
Yang Xu stared at Shen Heng with a grim expression for a while, then turned away.
Seeing this, Shen Heng frowned slightly, then relaxed his brows after a moment and looked ahead again.
Thump! Thump!
Zhang Chenguang tapped the table twice, and only after everyone quieted down did he speak:
"Alright, this live-fire simulation training is over."
" Shen Heng and Lin Chentao were granted access to the advanced Origin Power chamber."
"That's all!"
