, wonderful and free of pop-ups! In less than half a day, Bai Yixuan's remarks spread throughout the school. The first-grade monthly exam has naturally received wider attention. As for Yun Tai, the previous news fever has not dissipated from his mouth, and now it has added fuel to the fire.
In the afternoon, before the first knockout match started, the seats in the examination hall were already full. In addition to the senior students who watched the excitement in the morning, more students who came after hearing the news quickly grabbed the remaining seats, many of whom were teachers from the school. The monthly exam for first-year students has never attracted so much attention.
"Come on, come on, I'm done buying it." A familiar male voice reminded him again on the sidelines.
Several students turned around to look, and Feng Yijie was the first to smile: "Tell me, classmate Abagong, you haven't gone bankrupt yet? Why haven't you learned your lesson?"
Seeing the people in Yunhao, Abagong smiled bitterly and clasped his fists: "Seniors, please be merciful."
"What's going on?" Yun Yi was a little dissatisfied. He didn't want his younger brother to be involved in anything related to gambling. As the grandson of the Duke and the second son of the general, spreading such things would be detrimental to the reputation of the Yun family. .
"During the admissions assessment, this kid started a bet between Yun Tai and Teacher Qian. We happened to be passing by and had a few gold coins in our pockets, so we casually lost one, and Yuntai won. Just once." Yun Hao. Explain things clearly and concisely.
gold? That's a purple gold coin, isn't it? The difference of one word is 1,000 times worse! But Abagong didn't dare to correct Yun Hao's mistakes. He could only swallow his tears. Who asked him to seek death on his own and give Yun Tai such huge odds? In fact, at that time, no one except Yun Hao bet on Yun Tai to win!
"How many more times do you want it?" Yun Yi glared.
"I had a hot head at that time, thinking that no matter what, her surname is Yun, so I can support her, but I didn't expect..." Yun Hao immediately became depressed when he thought of the text message in the morning.
"That Yun Tai is really from your family?" Feng Yijie opened his eyes wide. He had asked several times before, but Yun Hao just kept his mouth shut and refused to give an accurate answer.
"There's no next time." Yun Yi left first.
It was still fifteen minutes before mid-afternoon (1 p.m.), and most of the students had already entered the examination room, where five arenas had already been raised. Nan Shasha, the student with the highest overall score in the first two games, will automatically enter the next round as a reward and does not need to participate in the initial elimination round, but there will be no point bonus. The second-place opponent is the 24th-place opponent, and so on. Students with the same points in the first two games will be ranked based on their strength in the first assessment test. Even if they are the same fourth-level magician, their strength is still different. Unfortunately, Yun Tai is temporarily ranked last. Her opponent is Yun Zhaomei from the Warrior Branch, ranked 23rd. Yun Zhaomei changed her name directly because her identity was revealed in the morning assessment.
"Before the competition, I want to reiterate again that this is an assessment, not a life-or-death battle. Winning is important, but deliberately injuring and maiming classmates in order to win is absolutely not allowed. Moreover, after discussion and research, the school has introduced a new reward for the group competition. Mechanism. That is, students who can win in the competition without using magic props will receive a 30% competition point bonus. Teachers still hope to see that you are fighting with your own strength." Qian Chengda said.
In fact, there is still a lot of controversy among teachers about this reward mechanism. Although Lanyun Magic Martial Arts Academy is more focused on actual combat than other academies, the essence of the academy’s teaching will not change. Everyone knows that magic props are something external to the body. No matter how powerful the external force is, it is ultimately limited and can be easily taken away. Only the power itself is something that no one can take away. This is originally the common sense and common understanding of every practitioner. But this year, Lanyun recruited a weirdo, a small third-level magician who relied on magic props to defeat Dou Shi. This is not a one or two small level leapfrog challenge, nor is it a lucky break once or twice. Two fifth-level fighting masters and one eighth-level fighting master. Such brilliant achievements are like putting a pack of white noodles in front of a drug addict to the students at school. How many people can resist such a temptation and calm down to practice slowly? Similarly, the school does not want to force students to use magic props. Since it is biased toward actual combat, the creed in actual combat is to use everything available for victory. This also gives students an opportunity to deal with different magic props. Of course, the result of this was that the intensity and destructive power of each battle increased to n levels, and the medical building was overcrowded, attracting countless protests from the parents of the students. Therefore, in order to encourage students to pay attention to their own cultivation, a new assessment rule was introduced.
This new assessment rule also triggered a lot of discussion in the stands.
"This rule is obviously aimed at the candidate named Yun Tai. Seeing that his expression has not changed, he is really calm. Are you not worried at all?"
"What are you worried about? Didn't you listen carefully? This reward is only established on the basis of victory. Do you think that the person ranked 23rd will be Yun Tai's opponent? Regarding the use of magic props, I still I’ve never seen anyone as good as that little boy named Yun Tai.”
"Actually, let me tell you, this rule is completely false to him. Think about it, that person can even defeat the teacher. The group of children below want to win against him without using magic tools. It's simply impossible. As long as he gets first place, under the condition of doubling the points, let alone 30%, even adding 50% is useless. As for other students, who has similar strength and is not absolutely sure, who dares to take risks? Not using magic items? Only if you win first can you talk about the next 30%."
"It's just that you don't know that the previous second-year assessment was so brutal. In the past, the group in the last class were basically those who walked away casually, but this time they were tough, and most of them entered the second round. You didn't even see the college Over at the Free Trading Ground, those bastards guarding the shop in the Alchemy Department have been grinning like this during this period, and I really want to teach them a lesson. Fortunately, most of the assessments after the fourth grade are tasks."
"What do you think?" Yun Yi asked Yun Hao beside him. If everyone uses magic items, Yun Tai won't have any advantage. Coupled with the weakness in strength, Yun Yi could not see that Yun Tai had any chance of winning in this assessment.
Yun Hao shook his head and answered honestly: "She should have some advantages in her experience in using magic props."
"Um."
"Teacher." After Qian Chengda finished speaking, the candidates were about to turn to their respective arenas. Yun Tai raised her hand.
"explain."
"I give up this game."
With a bang, the entire examination room immediately became chaotic. No one expected that the first-year student they were most optimistic about would abstain from the first knockout match. Of course, no one believed that her reason for abstaining was cowardice.
Yun Hao's face was a little ugly. When had there ever been a soldier in the Yun family who surrendered without a fight? Thanks to that little girl, she still rushed down from the battlefield.
"Do you want to contact him? Ask him if something went wrong?" Feng Yijie suggested enthusiastically. Since he is Yun Hao's clan brother, he is also his younger brother.
Yun Hao looked awkward. Thinking of several heartbreaking conversations and unpleasant text messages this morning, Yun Hao didn't want to take the initiative to contact Yun Tai. In his opinion, this was beneath his dignity as an older brother.
"What? We had a quarrel?" Looking at his brother's face, Yun Yi knew what must have happened.
"No. Who can see things like a little kid?" Yun Hao said that he was just frustrated with Yun Tai's lack of knowledge.
"Are you sure? If you give up the game, the opponent will win without a fight and automatically accumulate one point. At the same time, one point will be deducted from you." Qian Chengda confirmed.
You have to know how many teachers Yun Tai's performance in the morning moved and how many students she inspired. But now, when most people are optimistic about it, she surrenders without a fight. Is she suddenly getting herself back to her original form?
"Do you have any difficulties? It doesn't matter. You can tell us and let's discuss a solution together." The earth elemental magister also stepped forward. After hearing this, my heart has definitely turned away.
"Not at all, thank you teacher for your concern." Yun Tai said simply.
They all talked about this, and they couldn't see any reluctance on Yun Tai's part. The result can only be given directly. Student No. 23 won without a fight and entered the next round of elimination.
"Stop. I won't accept such charity. You must fight with me seriously." Yun Zhaomei stood up from the team.
Although Yun Tai has not recognized her ancestors yet, her existence is no longer a secret in the Yun family. Especially him, because of his name, he was ridiculed by his elders and brothers again. What grandpa is indeed more powerful than the great magician of the light system. He doesn't need great prophecy skills. He can just name his grandson and his wishes will come true. If he says he wants to recruit a girl, he will actually recruit a sister. Although it was a joke, Yun Zhaomei was deeply impressed by Yun Tai, a new clan girl. Especially with Yun Tai's brilliant record in the past thirty days, Yun Zhaomei herself had no idea about this knockout match. But there were no escaped soldiers from the Yun family. But now, I suddenly heard Yun Tai saying that he would abstain. Yun Zhaomei's first reaction was that his sister had let him do it on purpose. The pride of the Yun family prevented him from accepting such charity.
Regarding this face, she was called Mei Zhaoyun in the morning, and now she is called Yun Zhaomei. Yun Tai was stunned for a moment, but she didn't gossip much. After all, this is an examination room, and they are conducting a serious examination: "This classmate, Please abide by the order in the examination room, otherwise it would be an injustice if you are disqualified from the examination."
After saying that, Yun Tai planned to leave, and then she was blocked at the entrance of the examination room.
"Why did you give up this assessment?" Yun Yi asked directly.
"The school discipline inspection team still cares about this? And this is not a violation of school rules, right?" Yun Tai asked doubtfully.
"It's not a violation, but if you act like this, it will probably hurt your opponent's young mind, and it will also be bad for his future cultivation. If he develops inner demons, things will get serious." Feng Yijie said exaggeratedly. explained.
"Inner demon? Which glass greenhouse did he come from? Such a small thing can also cause inner demons?" Yun Tai guessed that the child should be related to this group of people, especially seeing Yun Hao hanging at the back, let him Yun Tai remembered that the little boy seemed to be named Yun now, "It has nothing to do with him if I give up the third assessment. No matter who it is, I will give up."
"Why?" Yun Hao couldn't help but push away the others and stepped forward to ask.
"It's not economical." Yun Tai didn't whet his appetite and gave the answer directly. How many magic items and energy crystals will be consumed in this fight? This is all money! Moreover, you only get one point for winning a game, so the price/performance ratio is too low.
But this answer is absolutely unacceptable to several militants.
"What economic benefit? It's not like you don't have money." Yun Hao said dissatisfied.
"That's my money too." Yun Tai stared back at him unwilling to be outdone. Nor did her money come from the strong wind.
Yun Hao gritted his teeth: "All the expenses for your assessment will be mine." He could accept that Yun Tai was defeated because of her lack of strength, but he could not accept that she surrendered without fighting because she had no money.
"Not interested." Yun Tai still refused. She is not a militant, and every fight is out of necessity.
Yun Yi, who was silent on the side, thought of another possibility: "31?"
"31? Are you saying that Yun Tai gave up the third assessment to prepare for the extra 20 points?" Teng Guosong looked at Yun Tai for verification.
"This is also a trade-off assessment. The additional assessment does not give a specific time, but there is a time limit, that is, the additional points must be obtained before the third assessment is completely completed, and they will be invalid after the expiration. So how to combine the third assessment and the additional assessment? It’s up to the candidates to make coordination and choices between assessments,” Huo Zhi analyzed.
Based on this calculation, if Yun Tai gets an additional 20 points, even if she abstains from all three challenges, her final score will still be 28 points, and this score is already out of the danger zone of being relegated.
"Then which branch are you going to challenge?" Feng Yijie asked cheerfully. As a student in the elite class, it is natural to be particularly outstanding in certain aspects, and there is nothing worth making a fuss about.
Regarding his partner's fear of keeping the world in chaos, Yun Hao replied helplessly: "Don't you know that she has been a pharmacist for many years?"
Thinking of Yun Tai's pagan status, Huo Zhi corrected him: "She should be a former pharmacist."
But since the former magicians can cast magic, it is not surprising that the former pharmacists can make elixirs. A moment of silence for the next pharmacist from the branch who is about to be brutally attacked by Yun Tai...
