Although he was exhausted, An Bisheng was actually still happy to answer Lin You's questions. At this moment, he said cheerfully, "Brother Lin You, if you have anything else to ask, just tell me."
Lin You smiled and said, "I'm just a little curious about who Brother An is and how he knows such a huge amount of information. Some of this information cannot be ascertained by simply investigating some minor details."
At this point, he said meaningfully, "Brother An...could it be that the association has planted someone among us students specifically to spread some reliable intelligence so that we can get to know each other better?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the attention of the people around them instantly shifted back from the end of the sand, and they looked at An Bisheng in some surprise.
is that so?
Is he someone inside the association, and is he an intelligence channel specially prepared by the association for them?
Is there such a thing?
Several people were shocked, and An Bisheng's acquaintance was stunned. He looked at him with some disbelief and said, "An Bisheng, how could it be? Do you have this identity? I didn't realize it before, but now I think about it, no wonder you always knew so much. I didn't expect..."
An Bisheng was a little dazed at first, but after hearing the acquaintance speak, he couldn't help but look at the other person as if he were a fool.
Can you please have some intelligence?
Have you ever seen an internal planter so high-profile as to directly use the title of 'Rookie King'?
Still the new king of Anseong!
For a moment, An Bisheng felt even more exhausted. Lin You couldn't help but chuckle, "Just kidding. This is the National Freshman Exchange Tournament after all. It's only natural for freshmen from major cities to compete and exchange ideas. There's no need for the association to force anything. As for the question just now, don't take it to heart, Brother An. If you don't feel comfortable asking, just pretend I didn't ask."
"Brother Lin You is really humorous."
An Bisheng laughed, thought for a moment, and then said, "It's nothing, actually. To be honest, although I'm not very talented, I'm fortunate to have someone who values me. With hard work, I've been fortunate enough to become the city's Rookie of the Year. This status has given me great advantages, and that's how I've been able to gather some valuable intelligence."
“…”
Everyone suddenly fell silent for a moment, and the next moment, several people widened their eyes.
"Rookie King... Are you your city's Rookie King?"
"No way, you're a ruthless person of this level?"
"You, a heavyweight fighter, were really good at hiding things before!"
The people who had followed An Bisheng before were all surprised and surprised.
After all, An Bisheng had a friendly look from the beginning, and was patient, cheerful and humble in answering their questions.
I never thought that there was such an important identity hidden!
This is not an ordinary city rookie king. You have to know that the city where An Bisheng is located... is Ancheng!
The fourth most powerful duel city in the country!
As the rookie king of Ancheng, An Bisheng's strength can be imagined.
In terms of ability, he is probably not inferior to the other two ruthless guys present, Lin You and Li Die!
Lin You was also a little surprised to learn of his identity.
The rookie king of Ancheng, before the competition, started to play the intelligence game.
It is said that only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you win every battle.
However, An Bisheng's intelligence network was too vast, directly covering the top 100 cities. However, with his abilities, many people were not worth his special preparation at all.
But he still investigated and collected information, and the information he collected became more complete.
This is a genius with great perseverance!
Lin You felt emotional.
Seeing everyone's reactions after he revealed his identity, An Bisheng couldn't help but smile. "There's no need for you to worry about this little thing. No matter which city you're from, anyone who can come here and pass the first round of assessments so smoothly is obviously a capable person. I am one, and so are you all."
"Brother An, you're too modest. Look at what you're saying. We do have some strength, but we're probably still far behind you."
An Bisheng's words were very helpful to everyone. One person spoke with a smile on his face, and the people around him nodded and praised him.
"Brother An, you're too kind. In terms of ability, you, Brother Lin, and Sister Li are on the same level. We can't even be compared with you."
"That's true. You guys are capable of competing for a place. All we want is to make it a few more rounds without embarrassing ourselves."
An Bisheng gave them enough face, and those who knew his identity naturally praised him highly.
A few people flattered each other for a while, and suddenly, they looked forward in tacit understanding.
The end of the sand... appeared in sight!
Just as I had sensed before, the end was the edge of a cliff!
When they confirmed this, a wave of emotion surged in everyone's heart.
I didn't expect that this vast sandy area was on a cliff.
It’s hard to imagine how magnificent the mountains are that support this piece of sand!
However, considering that this is the work of the association, it is not surprising.
No matter how strange the landforms and landscapes are, there is enough power to create them.
The group of people, driving their respective monsters, quickly approached.
Just as they passed by, a voice rang out in the ears of several people at the same time:
"Come down."
The voice seemed understated, but it was unquestionable.
No one cared about this little thing at all.
It's just a fall off a cliff, no big deal?
Especially when you have a flying monster with you, you can just fly down like that.
A few people didn't take it seriously. Standing at the edge of the cliff, they sensed the situation. Suddenly, Lin You warned, "Be careful when you go down. There's some force coming up from above. I think... it's specifically designed to prevent the monster from descending. It's not very strong, but it's too reckless. It might get you into trouble."
After saying this, he immediately drove Chimera to mobilize the large amount of wind elements lingering around.
These wind elements guarded its body, forming a seamless wind barrier.
After finishing the preparations, Lin You said again: "Then I'll go first."
Seeing him leave, Li Die said, "I'm leaving too."
Chimera and Moon Demon flew downwards one after another.
Just as he fell off the cliff, an invisible airflow suddenly erupted in the sky and rushed out violently.
The wind barrier trembled, and the wind elements that gathered together began to gradually disintegrate.
But during the collapse, the Chimera's landing was able to proceed normally.
As for the Moon Demon following behind... Because Li Die followed too quickly, he ignored the reminder and did not take any precautions.
As soon as he rushed down, he was pushed upwards by the force in vain.
There were some dents on the Moon Demon's body, and his body was actually deformed, obviously he had been hit hard.
Seeing this scene, the expressions of the few people standing on the edge of the cliff who had not yet taken action changed.
There actually was a force hidden in the cliff that prevented them from landing!
But if you don’t see it with your own eyes, you won’t notice anything at all!
Lin You just quickly figured this out. How did he know?
Is it just a guess to be on the safe side?
That’s not right. What he said just now was very certain!
It was obvious that he knew there was a problem below.
Several people couldn't help but feel surprised and puzzled. Watching Lin You gradually descend, An Bisheng guessed, "It must be his monster. That monster has an incredible degree of control over the wind element. It doesn't even seem like it's actively controlling it, but rather that the wind elements are actively coming to it. It's an innate talent. The power that just erupted must be an invisible wind elemental airflow, which is why his monster was able to capture it."
"So that's how it is..."
An Bisheng's explanation made everyone feel relieved.
I knew it, how could Lin You suddenly realize this, it turns out he has this trick!
I have to say, his deck is really well-suited for the current assessment!
With the Red-Eyes Flying Dragon in front, and now this super black star monster with superb wind elemental talent, it is like a fish in water to deal with the assessment.
As everyone sighed, the moon pattern on the forehead of the previously defeated Moon Demon once again lit up. Li Die shouted, "Dare to block my way? Suppress it!"
The Moon Demon's wings trembled wildly, and a large amount of moonlight emerged.
These lights forcibly suppressed the violent airflow, and the Moon Demon's speed was slightly suppressed, but it still reached the bottom at an extremely fast speed.
Seeing that they had all gone down, An Bisheng said with a smile: "It's our turn now. If we exert some strength, the airflow will no longer be a problem."
Obviously, the existence of the invisible airflow is just to disgust the contestants who rush down rashly.
Now that the road has been explored, everyone naturally knows how to proceed.
Soon, they each took action and rushed down the cliff one after another.
…
Under the cliff.
When An Bisheng and his companions came down, they saw not only Lin You and Li Die, but also two other people.
The identities of these two people are self-evident. They are the duelists of the Big Bird and the Battleship Monster who were far ahead at the beginning of the assessment.
An Bisheng looked over, confirmed it, and quickly said with a smile: "I didn't expect it to be the Rookie King from Tiancheng and Yundu, two of the top ten cities. It seems that there are quite a few Rookie King-level contestants among the first group of people who arrived here."
He didn't lower his voice when he said this, but rather spoke directly.
Everyone present heard it.
A look of helplessness appeared on the faces of the people behind An Bisheng.
Yes, except for a few of us, the rest are all rookie kings.
They are not just ordinary rookie kings, they are all kings of the top ten cities!
Tiancheng, ranked fifth in the country!
Yundu ranks ninth in the country!
In this way, the rookie kings from the five major cities of Huacheng, Ancheng, Tiancheng, Yundu and Jiangcheng have gathered here.
Strong lineup!
The two rookie kings mentioned looked at An Bisheng, with a hint of doubt in their eyes.
An Bisheng did not shy away from the question and simply introduced himself, "I am An Bisheng of Ancheng. I have long heard of your great names. Meeting you today, I am amazed at your talent and elegance."
The man from Tiancheng folded his arms and looked at him with a hint of dissatisfaction, "You are so arrogant and self-indulgent. You must be the Rookie of Ancheng this year, right?"
An Bisheng was not angry, he just nodded, "That's right, I was reckless just now, please don't be offended, Brother Chengren."
"No wonder?"
Wang Chengren snorted lightly, still unhappy, "The one riding on my head as a Tiancheng person is you, the Rookie King of Ancheng. Just based on this, I'm a little angry. And... it seems that you have investigated me specifically, which makes me want to twist your head off and kick it like a ball. Finally, don't call me brother in front of me, you are not my brother!"
"Then I've asked for trouble."
An Bisheng remained calm, cupped his hands and smiled, saying, "I hope the newcomer from Tiancheng, Wang Haihan, will take it easy."
"The more I listen to you talk, the more upset I feel."
Wang Chengren waved his hands irritably, "Stay away from me, or I'll beat you up. I'm easily impulsive, don't provoke me."
An Bisheng smiled and looked away.
The people around him looked at him in surprise.
You are the rookie king of Ancheng. How can you tolerate being treated so lightly?
Although a real man can bend and stretch, you did nothing wrong just now. You were just introducing yourself. As for the private investigation, that is also allowed within the scope of the competition.
No one says you can't take the time to find out some information about your competitors in advance.
What's more... no matter how you look at it... the main reason why this Tiancheng Rookie King got angry was not because of being investigated, but more because of An Bisheng's identity as the Ancheng Rookie King!
It’s because Ancheng is ranked just one place higher than Tiancheng in the national ranking!
Because getting angry about this seems like looking for trouble no matter how you look at it.
As if sensing the strange looks from those around him, An Bisheng calmly replied, "It was just a minor dispute. Since it was my way of handling things that made the Newcomer King of Tiancheng feel uncomfortable, it's my fault."
"Yeah?"
After listening for a long time, Lin You, who had been silent the entire time, suddenly laughed and said, "According to this logic, I should be mad at that Yundu Newcomer King right now. But Brother An, you should calm down and not cause trouble for that girl."
Then he added, "However, with Brother An's personality, I don't think he will be as irritable as a monkey, so I can worry less."
“Puff.”
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone around couldn't help but laugh out loud.
This new king of Jiangcheng is really mean. Is this a subtle sarcasm to others?
Li Die was a little surprised and asked, "Why do you say that? Why are you angry at the Newcomer King of Yundu?"
Lin You said nothing.
The little girl is so young, she has both the ability and the looks, but why does her brain seem to be a little slow?
Well, every stick has its own merits and demerits, and God is still fair.
Li Die didn't know, but Wang Chengren naturally didn't miss Lin You's hidden meaning. He immediately frowned and said coldly, "Who are you, kid? You're secretly calling someone a monkey? Are you trying to piss me off and dig your own grave?"
Lin You smiled and said, "Of course, whoever wants to claim it will be the monkey. However, I thought no one was willing to claim it before, but now it seems that may not be the case..."
At this moment, Wang Chengren's eyes turned cold, filled with repression and anger. He said in a deep voice, "I'm going to tell you something you won't believe. You've successfully angered me. Don't let me catch you, or you'll die miserably."
Everyone's expression suddenly changed.
It seems that Lin You has really provoked the other party because of some small incidents just now. This is unnecessary!
An Bisheng, who had been unperturbed until now, showed a slight change in his expression for the first time. Just as he was about to say something, Lin You spoke first, "I couldn't ask for more. Honestly, I really enjoy fighting with masters. I hope your strength matches your temper, otherwise I'll be disappointed. And people who disappoint me usually don't end up in a good way."
"You have guts, boy!"
This time, perhaps it was an illusion, but Wang Chengren didn't seem quite as angry anymore. A smile spread across his lips. "It's so satisfying to beat up a guy like this. I'll remember you!"
"Who do you want to beat up?"
An unhappy scolding suddenly sounded, immediately attracting the attention of everyone including Lin You.
Li Die was a little annoyed. She pointed at Wang Chengren's nose and cursed, "It's all your fault for getting angry for no reason just now. You made the situation so complicated and made me look bad in public. You should be the one who deserves to be beaten up the most. You should remember this: I am Li Die, and I am going to beat you up a hundred times!"
“…”
The scene suddenly fell silent. What was this woman up to?
Oh right... Did you suddenly understand the simple and easy-to-understand logic just now?
So, because you realized it too late, you feel embarrassed in front of us?
But that logic seemed to be proposed by Lin You, so he deserves a beating... Ahem, forget it, the source is still Wang Chengren, this matter started because of him.
Wang Chengren looked grim after being pointed at and scolded by Li Die, who also mentioned his easily misunderstood name "Li Die". But then he remembered something and turned his eyes away, not arguing with Li Die.
He didn't care, but Li Die felt that she was being looked down upon and was about to refuse to give in.
Suddenly, a loud sound of breaking wind came from above.
More people have arrived, and this time there are not just one or two people.
The fastest group of people passed, and many of the remaining contestants were at a similar level in terms of speed.
At this moment, the group of contestants also arrived one after another.
One figure after another suppressed the airflow and fell below.
The arrival of these people temporarily stopped the quarrel.
An Bisheng observed for a while, and kept saying: "Ding Xianpei from Yuecheng, Lan Lou from Tiancheng, Su Yu from Bird City, Du Zhizhong from Jiangcheng..."
As the names came out one by one, it showed that he had done a very comprehensive job.
Lin You also looked over and saw that Du Zhizhong had arrived too?
Soon, he saw a bird with lightning surrounding it from the sky. It was the thunderbird dragon of Du Zhizhong.
This amount of air flow pressure is naturally nothing to Du Zhizhong.
After overcoming the pressure and landing steadily, Du Zhizhong's eyes quickly locked on Lin You.
When he was in the air, he had already noticed Lin You's figure.
"Brother Du is still as impressive as ever. He suppressed the enemy so powerfully. It seems he has made a lot of progress compared to the training camp."
Lin You walked up and praised him.
Du Zhizhong's face showed no joy at being praised. He said calmly, "You're too kind. Speaking of progress, with your talent and potential, supplemented by abundant resources, I'm afraid your current strength is already firmly above mine. Personally, I'm a little reluctant, but for Jiangcheng, this may be another opportunity to become famous. If you can do it, it will be a blessing for Jiangcheng, and as a Jiangcheng native, I will also be proud."
"I see..."
Lin You still had a smile on his face, but he put away some of the joking and became more serious. "Then you can look forward to it. Although I am a vulgar person, vulgar people hold on to benefits more tightly. It is probably not something that everyone can do to make me give in."
Du Zhizhong suddenly forced a smile, though it seemed a little stiff due to his rare smile. "You still give me the same feeling as during the training camp. This makes me feel more confident. But you can rest assured. This year in Jiangcheng, you are destined to be more than just one person holding up the stage."
"That's good too. With more wolves, they can bite off bigger pieces of meat. This time, the sheep are incredibly plump and delicious."
Lin You chuckled and said, "The only drawback is that there aren't just our wolves surrounding the fat sheep. There are even more ruthless wolves out there. So before we can take a bite of the fat meat, we must first consider how to kill these wolves who share the same goal."
Du Zhizhong nodded, "Let's fight."
The conversation between the two seemed full of momentum, and more people arrived one after another.
From Jiangcheng, Xia Mu, Xiao Yi, Qi Yuxuan and others all rushed over.
Experts from other cities are also emerging.
At this moment, the appearance of a person caused a sensation among the crowd.
A man in a robe with a samurai hairstyle and holding a samurai sword chopped down fiercely.
The air quickly compressed.
The explosive airflow was directly suppressed to the bottom.
The duelist, the man in the robe, quickly stepped down.
When it was about to land, a gust of air swirled under its feet, dissipating all the impact force and allowing it to land steadily.
The moment he landed, everyone looked at him.
There was no other reason. The moment he appeared, his identity had already spread among the crowd.
Cui Jiahao!
The new king of Shanghai!
A strong contender for the National Rookie of the Year award!
At this moment, Cui Jiahao's face was extremely calm under the watchful eyes of everyone.
His tall and muscular figure highlights his strong aura, and his dark skin makes him look like a calm cheetah, fierce and reserved, with a hidden edge!
Next to him was a thin and short man.
That height of less than 1.7 meters is actually nothing special, but when he stands next to Cui Jiahao, the contrast is naturally strong.
But no one would look down on him for that, that would be the stupidest thing to think.
Following Cui Jiahao means that this person is very likely also a contestant from Shanghai.
At this moment, seeing them appear in the crowd, An Bisheng couldn't help but smile and said, "The one standing next to Cui Jiahao should be Sun Yuwei, one of the top five masters in the Magic City. This person is considered to be defeated by Brother Lin You."
Several people around nodded. They had heard about this before, but now, they couldn't help but be surprised again.
After all, this Sun Yuwei seems to be very close to Cui Jiahao, and there are rumors that he is one of the top five masters in Shanghai. So this person is probably not at the bottom, maybe on the contrary, he may be in the top three.
The stronger Sun Yuwei becomes, the more terrifying Lin You becomes, who is able to crush his opponent.
…
Cui Jiahao's appearance caused quite a stir, so much so that subsequent contestants, even though some of them were heavyweights, such as Shancheng's newcomer Wang Gaoshan, still failed to attract much attention.
After all, the people present were all masters, and it would be almost impossible for newcomers to cause such a sensation.
Unless it’s the new king of the imperial capital!
But it is a bit regrettable that compared to Cui Jiahao, the one in the imperial capital seems much more mysterious.
Few people knew his name, let alone his appearance.
However, when a woman riding a white horse, holding a big sword and with flowing green hair appeared and quickly suppressed the airflow, Lin You and An Bisheng suddenly looked at each other in tacit understanding.
He was not looking at the female card, but at a man who was also sitting on the horse, behind the woman.
The man looked a little unkempt, with messy hair, dark circles under his eyes, and an untidy beard.
The whole person looked very decadent, especially when compared with the radiant woman with bright eyes and white teeth in front of him, he looked even more listless.
Although the contrast was sharp, no one paid attention to him at this moment.
The topics of discussion were mostly about the appearance of the new king of the Magic City, where the new king of the Imperial City was, or speculation about the next round of assessments.
Therefore, noticing the attention of Lin You and the others, Du Zhizhong couldn't help but ask, "Is that person... the Rookie King of the Imperial Capital?"
Although he didn't know how Lin You and others knew each other, he had heard An Bisheng list the names of geniuses one after another.
This person... obviously has extraordinary intelligence channels at hand.
It is also possible to get some information about the new king of the imperial capital.
"That's probably him."
Lin You did not give a definite answer, but the smile on his face showed that he was very sure of this.
Someone on the side asked in surprise: "Is he Xu Feng?"
Someone else looked at An Bisheng, "Brother An, is that him?"
An Bisheng also laughed, "I think it's him. That monster should be from the Valkyrie series. If so, his identity is naturally confirmed."
Obviously, there will be no one else using this unheard-of deck in this competition.
Since the other person might be Xu Feng, several people couldn't help but look at each other a few more times.
But the more I looked, the more something seemed wrong.
According to An Bisheng, Xu Feng is a very warlike and crazy duelist. Shouldn't such a person be alert at all times?
But now this person looked listless, as if he would fall down at the slightest breeze.
Seeing their hesitation, Lin You said calmly, "Whether it's true or not, it's not that important. If we can get far, we're bound to fight. Whatever mystery or reputation, in the end, the truth will be revealed in actual combat. By then, even if we want to hide, we won't be able to."
"Uh... that seems to be the case."
A few people nodded reluctantly, but in their hearts, they couldn't help but complain.
We don't have your ability. You are all thinking about fighting with Xu Feng, who is most likely the strongest newcomer. If it were us, we would probably be killed in minutes.
As for you, maybe you can really fight for more than ten or even dozens of moves. Even if you lose, it won’t be too ugly.
From the perspective of Jiangcheng's new king, having this ability is amazing enough.
The newcomers of Jiangcheng in previous years didn’t have this confidence!
…
As everyone talked, time passed by little by little.
The number of people who came, from the initial batches, to a few scattered people, and then to the occasional one person.
Finally, there was complete silence above the cliff.
After a while, a strong sound of breaking wind was heard.
The huge figure of the Red-Eyes Flying Dragon appeared above everyone's heads again.
The young examiner stood on the dragon's back and said indifferently, "The first round of assessments has concluded. 3,247 contestants entered, 1,214 were eliminated, and 2,033 contestants remain. We are ready to begin the second round."
This verdict was unusually concise and clear, but it shocked everyone.
The number of eliminated people...was actually over a thousand!
This is still the first round of assessment!
Who knows how many rounds of assessments there will be before the official duel?
According to this trend, won’t it be necessary to quickly screen out a large number of contestants who cannot reach higher rankings?
Even some contestants who may be better at dueling will be eliminated early due to unpredictable assessments?
Many people are worried.
But there are also many people who are looking forward to the subsequent assessment.
If the competition follows the conventional system of previous years, with rounds of battles, it would be boring enough for some people.
Before the hot dishes, the passion and fighting spirit in my heart might have been extinguished by some cold dishes.
There was a lot of discussion below, but no one questioned or was dissatisfied with the competition system.
After all, this is a national freshman exchange competition, and it is not bound by form. The competition system in previous years has also undergone many innovations.
While everyone was still discussing, the young examiner on the dragon's back suddenly uttered a word lightly, "Get up!"
Just as these words were spoken so casually, the ground suddenly shook violently, like an earthquake.
Everyone was surprised and hurriedly used magic to steady themselves to avoid falling.
At the same time, everyone looked into the distance.
Because at the same time as this violent earthquake, large cracks suddenly appeared on the ground in the distance.
Amidst the flying dirt, something seemed to be about to break out of the ground.
Boom, boom!
The earth shattered, cracks spread rapidly, and then an extremely huge amount of energy suddenly gushed out.
In the midst of this energy riot, under everyone's dazed gaze, a towering ice-blue mountain quickly rose from the ground.
The mountain is covered with irregular ice-blue cracks, and the energy seems to be leaking from these cracks.
boom!
A loud roar far louder than the previous vibration was heard, the mountain stabilized, and the vibration disappeared rapidly.
Soon, everything returned to calm again.
Only the towering ice-blue mountain occupied everyone's vision.
Ignoring the crowd's shock, the young examiner quickly and calmly announced, "Now, the second round of assessment begins. You will now choose a door and enter as quickly as possible."
Although the sound was calm, it was still like thunder and quickly woke everyone up.
After hearing what he said, everyone's first reaction was confusion.
Door?
What the hell?
But then they thought of something, and their eyes were filled with magic as they looked towards the mountains in the distance.
Sure enough, ten tall doors were seen on the surface of the mountain.
The ten doors look almost identical, but the only difference is precisely what people care about most.
The magical font condensed on the door!
Five of them manifest as 'strong'.
The other five are relatively weak.
In other words, there are five strong gates and five weak gates!
Everyone couldn't help but think.
From this point of view, the difficulty of the assessments behind strong and weak goals may be completely different.
But that doesn’t make sense!
It's clearly an assessment for everyone, but why are the levels of difficulty deliberately differentiated?
Isn’t this unfair to the contestants who choose to challenge strong teams?
In this case, even if one's own strength is good, it would be wise to choose a weak gate for assessment, right?
After all, this is not an independent assessment. No matter what choice you make, once you pass, you will proceed to the next round of assessment.
But while thinking this, everyone couldn't help but worry about one thing.
Could it be that... this so-called weak door is actually a trap?
This round of assessment may be testing whether everyone has the courage to challenge the strong heart. Once they are timid in front of the strong goal and choose the safer weak goal, they will face elimination directly?
Test your heart!
If this were to happen, the originally rational choice would immediately push them into an abyss with no room for maneuver.
But if they are deliberately misled into thinking so, the resulting unequal difficulty levels of the assessments will instantly separate the pros and cons of contestants with different choices.
After all, judging from the experience of the first round of assessments, there was no time at all for them to recover their magic power or adjust their resources before the official duel.
If you cannot ensure sufficient magic power and resources, being eliminated will be your inevitable fate sooner or later.
what to do?
How to choose?
At this moment, many people were extremely conflicted.
But while most people were struggling, some people set off without hesitation.
Among these people, Lin You is naturally included.
Behind him followed Du Zhizhong, Li Die, An Bisheng and others.
There were a few people who were originally hesitant, but when they saw that they all left decisively, they didn't bother to think about it anymore.
Never mind. I can’t come up with anything no matter how hard I try. Might as well end it quickly.
Of course, this is the truth, but many people are still confused.
But seeing more and more people rushing over, I had no time to think about it. I decided to get closer and take a look first. Maybe I could find something different.
…
Snap, snap.
The Chimera flapped its wings quickly, carrying Lin You, and soon arrived in front of the iceberg.
After landing, there is a door not far in front of you.
And that door is naturally a strong door!
Lin You doesn't care about the difficulty of the assessment. In his opinion, this is an unfair choice and there is probably a compensation mechanism behind it.
It is unrealistic to directly eliminate contestants who choose weak gates, so it would be best to give some extra rewards to those who choose strong gates.
This reward may be training resources, cards, or even a treasure.
In short, there should be benefits.
These are what Lin You is thinking about.
Of course, even if there is no benefit, he is not interested in choosing a weak goal at this time.
Lin You's goal this time is to win the title of National Rookie of the Year. Why would he be afraid of the so-called gap in strength at the moment?
Just do it!
Seeing him stop in front of the strong gate, An Bisheng said with a smile: "Then let's go through this gate."
"It doesn't matter. Any strong gate will do."
Li Die also expressed her opinion. Du Zhizhong didn't say anything, but just followed silently.
Seeing them like this, the people behind them did not hesitate and became ruthless.
Let’s just be a strong team!
We are not small fry, can't we handle a mere goal?
Just as they made their decision, a cold laugh suddenly rang out from behind them. "Boy, once you've decided on this door, don't change it midway. I came here with you all fuming. There might be something interesting happening behind this door, hehe."
Hearing this voice, several people's faces changed slightly. They quickly turned their heads and saw that it was indeed Wang Chengren. They couldn't help but look at Lin You with some worry.
I didn't expect Wang Chengren to come and cause trouble at this time. If he really entered the same door, even if Lin You was not afraid, it would be troublesome to deal with him.
Although normally contestants are not allowed to attack each other without permission during the assessment, this round of assessment is special and there is a possibility of direct combat.
They were a little worried, but Lin You, the person involved, didn't take it to heart at all. He just replied nonchalantly, "I know, I know. Then just hold your anger and go in here, and then hold it back and leave again."
"That's it."
Wang Chengren grinned and said, "You've been playing it off to the extreme. The more courageous you are, the more enjoyable it will be for me to beat you up."
After saying that, he didn't say any more harsh words, but he stared at Lin You's back, looking extremely excited.
That look made those around him feel creepy.
At this time, people began to enter through each door.
Some people choose strong gates, while others choose weak gates.
But in terms of numbers, the vast majority of people still chose the strong goal.
After all, the weak goal feels too much like a trap.
The contestants who choose weak gates are generally really weak.
These people did not quite believe that this round of assessment would really set up such a serious trap, and they had a very clear understanding of their own strength.
Therefore, it is not shameful to think that it is a weak goal, it is just a matter of being realistic.
Choosing a weak goal will give you a chance to go further, which is always better than stopping here.
At this moment, all ten doors were glowing with brilliant ice-blue light.
Under this shining light, even if the eyes are possessed by magic, it is impossible to see directly through the situation inside from the outside.
Some contestants who tried to spy on something had to give up the idea.
Soon, Lin You also walked in. He was originally one of the front people in the queue.
The moment I entered the door, a chill permeated my whole body.
The vision in front of my eyes quickly lost its brilliance, and then it went dark.
Absolute darkness!
Lin You was not panicked at all and calmly activated the magic eye.
But even so, the vision in front of me is still dark.
One can only roughly see that this is an exceptionally spacious cave.
Or maybe... it can't be simply called a cave. After all, the space is too vast. When you look up, you can't see the top of the cave at all due to limited vision.
"What's going on? Why is it so dark in here?"
"I feel like I could be assassinated at any moment. The atmosphere is so weird."
The person who came in later was not as calm as Lin You, and was a little nervous.
At this moment, a malicious laugh was heard, "Hey, this is a good place to kill people!"
“…”
Everyone was sweating profusely and became even more nervous.
Although I know who the owner of the laughter is and why the other party said that, the atmosphere still makes me feel uneasy.
Some people who were unaware of the situation were even more shocked. Some people angrily asked, "Who is looking for trouble?"
As soon as the words fell, before anyone could respond, a sharp and shrill scream rang out in vain.
Then, with a few "pop" sounds, several dim ghost fires suddenly lit up around everyone.
"Fuck!"
Some people were frightened and cursed loudly.
Some people were thrown into disarray, hurriedly driving their monsters and preparing for war.
Who knows what the hell is going on!
"What a noise! It's just a small noise. Why are you making such a fuss? Haven't you seen demonic or undead monsters? There are many scarier ones than this."
Li Die made a sound of disgust, but continued walking as she followed Lin You forward.
Lin You smiled and said, "Although these are just some entertainment, completely ignoring them would inevitably disappoint the performers. It would be nice if some people could cooperate a little."
"is that so?"
Li Die suddenly realized, "Okay... although it's still boring, it's not meaningless after all."
In the back, the contestants who had been following them suddenly felt a little ashamed after listening to this discussion.
We were really caught off guard and a little panicked. We were not pretending to cooperate!
It's abnormal that you are so calm, okay?
Several people felt a little tired.
Ahead, it is still dark.
At this moment, without any warning, a deathly pale face suddenly appeared before everyone.
The terrifying face that was so close to them scared some people again.
The few people who followed Lin You were almost overwhelmed again after just calming down.
The few people walking further ahead were also closest to the big face. It was fine before, but now, some of them were scared.
But more people were as calm as Lin You and the others, and moved forward regardless of anything.
And that big face was obviously not aggressive at all, and didn't even intend to hinder their progress.
No matter how you look at it, it's just meant to scare people.
…
Lin You and others continued to move forward, and during the process, they encountered many scary tricks.
But for Lin You and some people, these were either expressionless or they just laughed it off.
Those who are easily frightened will develop immunity after being frightened for a while.
There's no way. There are so many people here, and being scared all the time is so embarrassing.
Even if you are not immune, you have to pretend to be immune.
Of course, more people are truly immune.
They were afraid before, firstly because it was sudden, and secondly because they were worried that these tricks might contain some aggressive elements.
But now it seems that it is just a simple prank, so I naturally ignore it.
And just after another scary trick, when no one paid, a bored sigh was heard, "You guys are so boring! I carefully prepared fun for you, but you don't know how to enjoy it."
Immediately afterwards, there was a sound of snapping fingers.
In an instant, the darkness faded away, and the entire space was illuminated by a dreamy ice-blue light!
A young, yellow-haired figure appeared ahead of the group.
The moment he saw this person, Lin You, who had always been extremely calm, was suddenly stunned.
Why is he here?!
