Chapter 7 The Assessment Begins

Suddenly, the cat-eared girl was attracted by the ring on Xiyou's right index finger, "You look so good."

Xiyou followed the girl's gaze and saw her ring.

"Ah, this is..." Suddenly Xiyou's mouth was covered by the girl's soft hands.

"Shh!" The girl looked serious and whispered into Xiyou's ear, "You idiot, don't reveal your weapons and abilities to the enemy."

Xiyou was a little confused.

The girl pressed Xiyou's ears again and whispered: "Everyone here is your enemy. Everyone wants to pass the test. The more you reveal, the more risks you will take."

The cat-eared girl blinked at Xiyou, and Xiyou suddenly realized.

"You are a newbie, right?" The girl looked at Xiyou's clothes.

Xiyou was puzzled.

The girl was not in a hurry and explained to the girl.

"Look at the whole place, except for the young master of the He family who looks down upon everyone, everyone else is wearing dark clothes."

Xiyou then took a closer look at what the participants were wearing, and it was true that almost no one was wearing anything conspicuous, except for her own eye-catching red sweater.

"This is because everyone is trying to be as inconspicuous as possible to avoid becoming a target for others."

"I thought you were some kind of powerful person, but it turns out you're just a noob." The cat-eared girl felt sorry for Xiyou.

"Because no one can be sure what the assessment content is. After all, the information from previous years is just a reference."

"Hey? Information? What information?" Aren't the contents of the annual assessment confidential? Why is there information?

The cat-eared girl looked at Xiyou with disgust.

"You are really...a little idiot who doesn't know anything..."

Suddenly, the surrounding communication gradually weakened and disappeared. On the stage in front of everyone, a sleepy-eyed and somewhat slovenly man walked out from the backstage.

"Ah, you must be the young ones of this year." The man said in a lazy voice, looking around at the childish young men and young girls, and said in disgust: "Are you ready for the assessment?"

"Of course, I have been waiting for this day for a long time!"

"Stop talking nonsense, why don't you start quickly?"

"This man is so strange. He is slovenly and doesn't look impressive at all."

"..."

The ups and downs in the audience were the children's discussions.

"Ah, what a bunch of rude kids." The man had no choice but to scratch his messy silver-gray hair.

"Rookies, please be quiet. My name is Xing Gan, and I am one of the judges in the assessment. Of course, if any of you pass, then I will be your teacher in the future."

Although the man was lazy, the aura emanating from his body was extraordinary. Some unskilled children in the audience could not see this and just whispered and laughed at the future teacher's lack of tune.

"He's very strong, that guy on the stage." Abang said in a low voice to the little girl in dinosaur pajamas beside him.

"Yes, even though I have restrained myself a lot, I still feel scared." As he spoke, Wawa moved closer behind Abang and secretly glanced at the man on the stage who was talking about the assessment content with his peripheral vision.

"The assessment is very simple. If you find a stone crystal and reach the finish line within the specified time, you will pass."

The row limit ignored the people in the audience who said excitedly that this is very simple and can be passed easily and continued.

"You can use any method, but you cannot hurt people's lives. Once we find that any of you has a wrong idea, you will be immediately disqualified and will be taken away for interrogation~"

Xing Gan warned everyone with a smile, feeling like he was pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger.

"The venue is a simulated street next to the multi-purpose hall. It lasts one hour. I hope everyone will try their best. I am eager to see you at the finish line."

He Zhouchi looked hard at Xiao Yi who was sitting in the corner, and gestured with his mouth to make a sentence

‘I will let you take it, one by one.’

Then he smiled mockingly, raised his legs and prepared to leave.

"Mr. Xing." A boy wearing a mask in the corner raised his hand, "I would like to ask how many stone crystals are there in the venue?"

Just as he was about to leave, Xing He turned around and looked at the boy who asked the question, with a seemingly pleased smile on his face.

"Yes..." Xing Quan gestured with a number with his finger, "29."

?! Everyone's face changed, 29?, Isn't it a way to recruit 30 people, why only put 29 stone crystals?

"Hey, we are recruiting 30 people in total. Why are there only 29 stone crystals? No one will use the back door?" He Zhouchi first raised doubts.

"Yes, there are 30 people." Xinggao was not angry at He Zhouchi for asking, "But there is one person we have recruited in advance."

How could this be?

Everyone in the audience expressed dissatisfaction. Even a wealthy family like his own has to be assessed. What kind of person can be directly hired without assessment?

"Who can be recruited in advance without taking the exam? I don't remember that DX has such a precedent." He Zhouchi was indignant. Even he had to take the exam according to his duties. Who is so good that he didn't even use the exam?

Xing Gong didn't care about the anger of everyone, "The assessment will start soon. I won't be responsible for not being able to catch up."

Everyone had no choice but to put aside their current dissatisfaction and quickly followed Xing Xian towards the examination room.

"Hey, what's your name? My name is Xiujiu." Xiujiu poked Xiyou next to him and asked.

"Xiyou." Xiyou turned around and responded with a smile.

Shou Mao took a look at Xiyou's yellow curly hair tied into a ponytail and said, "It does look quite Yuzu."

Xiyou raised her fingers and curled the broken hair around her ears and smiled.

He Zhou walked slowly and leisurely to Xiao Yi. He just wanted to disgust Xiao Yi by being around him and interrupt his search for Shi Jing.

Xiaoyi didn't care about the people next to him, only paying attention to the movement of the row limit starting the timer.

"Xiyou, I hope we will meet at the end." Sodejiu waved to Xiyou.

"Yeah, see you at the finish line!" Xiyou gave her a confident smile in return.

It is said to be a simulated street, but the assessment venue is not small. A little calculation shows that it is about the size of more than 20 football fields. The streets are criss-crossed, and there are dim lanes between buildings, including some unfinished buildings.

And the illuminated portal makes it look like a real street.

Standing at the starting point, you can see many exposed stone crystals reflecting dazzling light under the sunlight. It seems that many people are fighting for them.

Xiyou thought carefully about her strategy on the sidelines. She would definitely not be able to grab it if she tried hard, and she might be injured and unable to continue the test. Since the teacher just said to look for it, there must be many things hidden in the dark.

There are stone crystals everywhere, and my goal is those hidden stone crystals that no one cares about!

"Well, everyone." Xingxian raised his hand and snapped his fingers, "The assessment begins!"

*****

At this time, in the corner of Tianyun Mountain, in a secret base hidden in the mountains and forests, a woman with a snake body and a green robe stood timidly in the center of the room. The only light source in the entire room came from a small and high window. The space was large and airtight.

, looks dark and strange.

"You're back? How was the mission accomplished?" A hoarse and deep male voice came out in the darkness. The leather shoes kept rubbing on the ground, and the squeaking sound made people feel uncomfortable and scared.

"Sir... report, everything went smoothly, but... something went wrong during the period..." The woman's voice was trembling and weak, as if she was afraid of the man on the high platform in front of him who was submerged in the darkness.

"Oh? That means you failed?" The low-pitched male voice without any fluctuation gave people a full sense of oppression. The woman was trembling with fear and apologized over and over again.

The woman in white clothes next to her who looked very similar to her seemed to be unable to stand it any longer. She moved from the side to the center of the room and bowed her head with the woman in green clothes.

Relying on the dim light, one can vaguely see that both of them have the same snake tail, but one is green and the other is white, just like the legendary green and white snake.

"Sir, it was her overconfidence that led to the failure of this mission, but it is not entirely her fault. The opponent was unexpected, and my sister also escaped death..."

"Oh? Does it mean that I assigned her the wrong task?" The man's eyes had an unclear meaning, and the anger in his eyes flashed past, as if he was about to tear the two of them apart in the next moment.

"No, no, no, how could it be possible? Sir's decision is always correct!" The woman in green clothes knelt down in fear, speaking intermittently in panic.

"Ha...what exactly happened this time that made you escape back in such a mess?"

The woman in green clothes seemed to have remembered something terrible, her body was trembling, and a cold air of fear was exuding all over her body.

In the past few months, she was so weak that she could only breathe. She hid in the deserted wilderness and survived rounds of pursuits. It was only just now that she regained some strength and was able to escape back to the stronghold.

Wei Wei said: "That is the breath of death, the breath of death emanating from a person's body."

The story didn't last long, but it also made everyone present feel hairy. Basically, the woman in green cast a magic seal created by her husband on a family of four, but it failed. Then she met a young man and killed him.

In the process, something happened that made her almost die.

"You mean that boy exudes the aura of both ghosts and humans?"

"Yes... it's too scary. That kind of power is not human power at all."

"Oh~" A playful smile appeared on the man's face, "Interesting, isn't this an interesting experiment?" The eyes hidden behind the monocle glowed with desire and joy, as if he had found his beloved.

Children must get toys.

"Xiao Bai, take your sister down to rest for a while. I'll ask her some questions later." Xu discovered something interesting, and even the man's tone became relaxed and cheerful. The previous haze disappeared, and only

All that remains is the boy's curiosity.

After the two left, several discussions came from the dark corner. If it hadn't been for the noise, no one would have discovered that these people existed in this room.

"Old White Walkers, how could a human possess this kind of aura? She must have been frightened to death and started talking nonsense." A thin male voice expressed his doubts.

"Oh, a useless good-for-nothing failed, and you didn't kill her, sir." A clear and cold female voice echoed, seemingly dissatisfied with the leader's actions.

There was also a silent figure hidden in the darkness, dressed in black, turning the Rubik's Cube in his hand. Only a scar at the corner of his eye was particularly conspicuous.

The man ignored the discussion of several people and ordered: "Go and investigate the person named Zono." Then he showed a strange smile.
