Boom!!
The two clashed, their swords flashing at breakneck speed.
Sword light and blade energy flashed, snapping trees in their wake, leaving smooth, mirror-like cuts, and crisscrossing ravines across the ground. The contestants stared in disbelief at the two locked in fierce combat, as if they were gods.
"Those two lunatics!" Jiesitan gritted her teeth, a hint of fear flashing in her eyes.
Although she has strong defenses, she might not be able to withstand an attack of this magnitude. Even if she could, Jiesitan would absolutely not want to endure the excruciating pain that felt like being slowly sliced to pieces.
"Hmph, when the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits. I'll be waiting for you two to settle this!" Jiesitan thought sullenly, though she would never admit that she was feeling a little uneasy.
Moreover, rationally speaking, her decision was not wrong.
Lancelot and Jimmy both used their ultimate burst abilities, their combat power even reaching the Tier Five. They will definitely be weak afterwards, and she might be able to pick up two peaches in a row.
However, things took an unexpected turn for the Jiesitan.
Lancelot's Cell Liberation was significantly more terrifying than Jimmy's Raging Blood Battle Intent.
In addition, there was a difference in their fighting skills and the varying quality of their weapons.
About thirty seconds into the fight, Jimmy's twin swords broke.
Lancelot pressed his advantage, unleashing seven consecutive sword strikes to eliminate his opponent.
After eliminating Jimmy.
Lancelot stood sideways, holding his sword in one hand, the tip pointing to the ground, blood dripping from the blade. He turned his head to look at Jiesitan and said coldly:
Should we go to war?
Jiesitan instinctively took a step back. Lancelot had given her an extremely ferocious feeling, as if mountains of corpses Blood Sea were floating behind him, with the bodies of countless powerful creatures rising and falling.
But when she sensed it again, she found nothing; the feeling was like an illusion.
And so, Lancelot walked away slowly, sword in hand, and no one dared to stop him along the way.
His terrifying record of eliminating two monster-level contestants has propelled his Intimidation factor to its peak.
"Captain, should we continue the chase?" Jieni ran to Jiesitan's side and asked softly.
"Hmph, only a fool would bother arguing with a madman like that." Jiesitan snorted coldly and turned to leave.
Jieni shook his head with a wry smile, said nothing, and led his men to follow Jiesitan away.
The fierce battle for the golden airdrop crate on Silver Serpent Island ended with Jimmy, who was ranked third on the leaderboard, losing.
Lancelot, having scored a large number of points, overtook Edward and officially took the top spot on the leaderboard.
Egret Island.
Another island located in the central area of the re-examination zone.
It is oval-shaped and slightly larger in area than Silver Serpent Island.
Edward sat on a tree branch, his right leg dangling down, with two revolvers strapped to his waist—his weapons.
This guy's class name is "Storm Gunner," which sounds like a mechanical class, but he's actually a genuine spellcaster.
Edward is able to edit spells into rune bullets and store them, firing them when needed.
Each bullet is a spell.
Therefore, once he unleashes his full power, the scene will be incredibly spectacular, a veritable tidal wave of magic.
That's why Edward has been able to consistently stay at the top of the standings.
It's simply because this guy's firepower is too fierce, his attack power is too strong, and he can suppress dozens of contestants with his own relentless attacks.
"Tsk, we got overtaken at the last minute, what a headache." Edward scratched his head, his gaze fixed on the top spot on the leaderboard.
That place, which he had always occupied, now has a different name.
"Jimmy failed too. The academy will probably be unhappy."
Edward thought for a moment, then jumped down from the tree.
Both he and Berserker Jimmy have already been recruited by the Radiant Sun Academy.
Radiant Sun Academy had high hopes for them, but Jimmy was defeated by Lancelot at the last moment, losing half of his points and dropping significantly in the rankings.
"There's still time; we must find that lucky kid."
Recalling the scene that had just occurred, even someone as thick-skinned as Edward still felt his lips twitch and his expression turn strange.
Like Silver Serpent Island, Golden Airdrop Crates also appear on Egret Island.
However, by sheer coincidence, the airdrop crate landed directly on someone's head, and even more remarkably, this person opened the crate and found a single-soldier mech, at least a two-star high-quality one.
Once he donned the mecha, his strength, which was originally only at the peak of the Tier Three, soared to nearly the Tier Five. He cleared a path with his machine gun, blasting away a large group of contestants, and then disappeared in a flash.
When Edward arrived, he only saw a large group of dumbfounded contestants and two other speechless monsters.
Without the lure of airdrops, the chaotic battle on Egret Island naturally didn't erupt, and the contestants who made it to the final stage were all incredibly good at surviving.
There was no benefit to it, and they scattered like birds and beasts.
They vanished without a trace in the blink of an eye.
In particular, there wasn't a single person in the area within a 500-meter radius where Edward passed.
This left him feeling quite helpless, as he wanted to rack up points.
Currently, Lancelot has surpassed him by nearly 200,000 points.
Moreover, the other party was also holding a points card.
Edward faces an extremely difficult task in turning the tide.
His first priority is to find that lucky kid, reclaim his points card, and then use his advantages to hunt down the contestants relentlessly, which might turn the tide.
With that in mind, Edward mobilized his teammates to search all around Egret Island.
However, things didn't go as planned, and he still couldn't find the guy until the very last hour of the re-examination.
seabed.
In the darkness, amidst the mud and sand, Devin, relying on the mech's self-circulating survival system, remained motionless like a stone.
Even when powerful aquatic monsters occasionally passed by, they failed to notice him.
"Almost there, almost there, time's almost up!" Devin stared wide-eyed at the ticking time on the digitized screen in front of him.
Until it's completely reduced to zero.
The second round of interviews is over!
Ten minutes before the end of the retest, Lancelot used his points card, and his points skyrocketed by 600,000, leaving Edward, who was in second place, far behind.
To Lancelot's surprise, not long after he used his points card, the top ten rankings changed drastically, and a familiar name appeared after ninth place.
Devin!
