Mutated Beasts

Xu Ling's father, Xu Zhenhua, was shocked. He hurriedly stepped forward and saluted. "Instructor Shen, Xu Zhenhua from the 33rd batch reporting to you!"

Shen Jing looked at Xu Zhenhua in surprise. He seemed to recall something and said in realization, "I remember now. During the 33rd batch, you were the most naughty one."

Xu Zhenhua said excitedly, "I didn't expect you to remember me, Instructor."

Shen Jing smiled. "I remember every single one of my students. Zhenhua, your daughter has potential. We'll see how she performs in this battle."

"Thank you for your praise, Instructor!" Xu Zhenhua hurriedly said.

The other important figures did not dare to interrupt. After all, Instructor Shen was a high-level master and had come from Yanjing City. His status was far higher than theirs.

"Alright, have a seat."

Seeing that everyone was standing, Shen Jing casually waved his hand and sat down.

Whoosh!

The group of important figures and parents sat down one after another.

Principal Zheng, the dean, and the other teachers were not qualified to sit. They could only stand at the side.

Shen Jing swept his gaze around and saw that many parents had worried expressions. He could not help but smile and say, "Everyone, don't worry. To ensure the safety of this combat assessment, I have specially transferred two martial artist teams from the defense line of the base. All the other mutated beasts have also been strictly tested. No accidents will occur."

"Oh, the participants will also be given standard armor."

Hearing this, Wang Ming, Li Ji, and the other students' parents heaved a sigh of relief but were still worried nonetheless.

Anything could happen in a fight against a mutated beast.

Shen Jing retracted his gaze and said calmly, "Principal Zheng, let's begin!"

Principal Zheng, who was standing at the side, hurriedly informed the teachers to make the arrangements.

Clang! Clang!

Soon, huge iron cages were slowly placed on the training ground under the transport of the army's martial artist team.

After seeing the mutated beasts inside the iron cage, the parents, including Xu Zhenhua, heaved a sigh of relief.

"So it's a Tusk Boar."

Tusk Boars were the most common of all the mutated beasts and were very weak.

Let alone third level blood essence students, even second level blood essence students would be able to kill them if they exerted their full strength.

Even these parents had experienced killing a few of them in their younger days.

Furthermore, the students of this combat assessment were equipped with standard armor that only martial artists were allowed to wear.

It could be said that their lives would not be in danger at all.

"Instructor Shen sure made thorough arrangements!"

"That's right. With the army camp's martial artist team holding the line and the students being protected by standard armor, nothing will go wrong!"

"The participating students just have to perform well."

The bureau leaders and parents immediately began to praise Instructor Shen enthusiastically. Some parents who had come to watch the fun even regretted not letting their children sign up for the combat assessment.

At 9: 30 in the morning, Zhou Hao and the other 184 students who had signed up for the competition arrived at the training ground under the lead of the year three leader.

At the same time, a large number of students were allowed to enter the spectator stands.

"Ah! It's a mutated beast!"

"I know. It's a Tusk Boar. This mutated beast is classified as a low-level demon beast."

"Damn, if I knew they were going to use Tusk Boars, I would have signed up!"

"That's right. The rewards for getting into the top twenty are doubled this time. I can't believe I missed such a great opportunity!"

Many students were shocked when they saw the mutated beast in the iron cage. Soon after, they all pounded their chests in regret.

The Tusk Boar might look fierce and malevolent, but it was even used for demonstrations during materials class.

Therefore, most of the students were very familiar with it and were not afraid at all.

Zhou Hao and the other participating students were even less afraid. Instead, they were all excited.

"Haha, so it turned out to be the Tusk Boar. I'll kill it to my heart's content!"

"The top twenty will be rewarded with 100,000 yuan. I might have lost my chance last time, but I will surely get into the top twenty this time!"

"It's just a Tusk Boar. If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have been so frightened to the point of losing sleep for the past few days."

The year three leader walking in front saw that the participating students were starting to relax and could not help but scold, "Even if it's a Tusk Boar, you still can't be careless!"

"Yes, teacher."

Many students responded in a perfunctory manner.

They had found out in advance that the school would distribute standard armor for this combat assessment and were thus worried for a long time.

Now that they knew their opponent was a Tusk Boar, they had naturally become more at ease.

"The rules of the competition are very simple. The more Tusk Boars you kill, the higher your ranking will be."

"Five students in the arena at a time. Let us know if you face any difficulties, there will be martial artists coming forward to help!" The referee said solemnly.

"Got it!"

"Let's begin quickly. I can't wait to kill these Tusk Boars!"

The participating students rubbed their fists.

The year three leader shook his head speechlessly. He waved his hand, and the teachers brought over standard armor for the students to wear.

Although standard armors were expensive, the school still decided to use them as the lives of the students were more important.

In this aspect, the school leaders did not dare to make any mistakes.

There was also an impassable metal railing around the training field as well as five barriers on the field. Behind each of the barriers, stood a martial artist from the military camp.

On the high platform, Instructor Shen walked forward and shouted, "Begin!"
