Chapter 51: Dark Evil Light, Demon Head
Lin Moyu's thoughts were correct.
In the history of the Divine Summer Empire's big exam, very few examinees could pass the second stage.
The fifth round Conquest Space test was also the final round.
The Conquest Space had five stages in total.
Currently, the highest record was passing the third stage.
This record was set over 100 years ago.
No one had broken this record since then.
The examiners in Jiangning Province were also speculating whether Lin Moyu could break the record.
"I think there's a chance."
"Although I don't know exactly what this guy's skills are, from his previous results we can see his skills are abnormal."
The examiners no longer wanted to use "powerful" to describe them, but directly called them abnormal.
"I suspect he awakened a talent."
"No matter how strong a career is, it has limits. It can't be this strong."
"If he really awakened a talent, that would be amazing news."
"That's right, if he could awaken a talent right after career transition, maybe he could awaken a new talent at the second transition."
"You're thinking too much. Career professionals with talents are already very rare, those with double talents are even rarer."
"Who knows?"
The examiners' chat drifted off topic.
But everyone was watching the score changes.
Lin Moyu's score changes were the most dramatic - either not changing or skyrocketing.
Lin Moyu used his previous tactics, sending out skeleton warriors to attract the Feline Beastmen's attention.
His method of dealing with beastmen didn't need to be novel, just effective.
The skeleton warriors attracted fire, pulled monsters together, created corpses, then used Corpse Explosion for area damage.
Lin Moyu was very familiar with this method, and its efficiency was astonishing.
Soon, the scattered skeleton warriors had attracted all the visible Feline Beastmen.
Then they began running circles around the Feline Beastman Archers.
When the monsters were gathered enough, Lin Moyu ordered the skeleton warriors to attack.
With skills activated, the level 16 Feline Beastman Fighters were instantly killed.
Then came a series of Corpse Explosions. In the blink of an eye, calm returned.
His score instantly increased by 20,000, reaching 34,605 points.
In the second stage, each monster gave Lin Moyu 100 points.
200 monsters meant 20,000 points.
The examiners were no longer surprised.
"This guy has entered the second stage."
"The monsters in the second stage only increased by 1 level, it doesn't affect him."
"This is just giving away points. If we had the authority, I'd really want to increase the difficulty."
"Yeah, send a few dozen bosses for him to kill, that would be interesting."
Looking at Lin Moyu's 30,000+ points, then at the others, the gap was too big.
So far, second place was Xia Xue.
As an Elemental Mage, Xia Xue had good area attack skills.
She was the second fastest at clearing monsters after Lin Moyu.
Her score had reached over 7,000 points.
She had almost killed the first hundred monsters.
After Xia Xue was surprisingly Feng Xiu.
This Holy Swordsman had caught up from behind, also reaching 6,000 points.
This showed that Holy Swordsman was also a good career for dealing with groups.
Zuo Mei and Wang Zihao were a bit behind.
Zuo Mei assassinated targets one by one, stable but not very efficient.
Wang Zihao was more direct, clashing head-on with monsters.
As for his berserk skill, it wasn't time to use it yet.
Both their scores were increasing slowly, only just over 5,000 so far.
But they were both confident in themselves.
Completing the first stage and breaking 10,000 points wasn't a problem.
As long as they could break 10,000 points.
With level, career, and results all meeting requirements,
Entering Summer Capital University would be certain.
The Divine Summer Empire's big exam was nationwide, conducted by province.
It was held on the same day and time, with similar progress across provinces.
Now almost all provincial exams had begun the fifth round.
Trial Towers opened Conquest Spaces one after another.
Anyone who could enter was undoubtedly a genius.
These were the most talented examinees in the entire Divine Summer Empire this year.
In the eyes of the empire's upper echelons, these examinees were the future of the Divine Summer Empire.
Every year, a batch of strong individuals emerged from them, injecting fresh blood into the empire.
In the capital of the Divine Summer Empire, the famous Summer Capital City.
A huge tower appeared floating in mid-air.
Countless people in Summer Capital City looked up at the sky. The tower could be clearly seen from any corner.
This tower usually didn't appear. Its appearance marked the day of the Divine Summer Empire's big exam.
This was the main body of the Trial Tower.
The Trial Towers conducting exams in various provincial cities were all its avatars.
There were three divine towers in the Divine Summer Empire.
The Trial Tower was one of them.
Another was the Divine Summer Tower located in Summer Capital University.
The third was called the Demon Slaying Tower, usually at the frontlines and rarely seen by citizens.
Suddenly the sky darkened and the temperature dropped sharply.
Night fell in an instant, and a beam of dark evil light shot through the sky, rushing towards the Trial Tower at an incredible speed.
"How dare you!"
A thunderous voice echoed throughout the entire city.
A virtual giant hand appeared in the sky, trying to block the dark evil light.
"Tsk tsk, you can't stop it!"
A sinister laugh sounded from the dark light as it brightened.
A huge demon head appeared in the darkness.
The head had two horns and sharp teeth, looking exactly like the demons described in books.
The horns emitted a piercing sound, shooting black light at the illusory giant hand.
The black light collided with the giant hand, both vanishing without a sound.
Then a giant eye appeared in the sky, shooting golden light towards the dark evil beam.
The dark beam suddenly split in two, one part colliding with the golden light.
The other part suddenly increased speed dozens of times, instantly rushing into the Trial Tower.
"You're seeking death!"
Another giant hand appeared in the sky, firmly gripping the demon head.
The demon head let out a sinister laugh, "This is just an avatar, kill it if you want."
"But those little ones in your Trial Tower... tsk tsk..."
With a bang, the demon head was crushed.
