August 31st.
The end of the month.
Early in the morning, Lin You got up and prepared breakfast.
My previous habit of staying in bed has basically improved recently.
I can't help it, my days are too full, and sometimes I don't even want to sleep.
Today is a slightly special day.
Monthly exam day!
Jiangcheng University has such a day at the end of every month.
But this monthly exam is actually not relevant to everyone.
Students in the advanced class are basically spectators.
And monster students in advanced classes like Lin You, Xia Mu, and Xiao Yi are even more unlikely to participate.
After all, it is said to be a monthly exam, but it is actually a different kind of challenge day, used to test those students who think they have the ability and hope to enter a better class.
A, B, C, D, E, these are the five major classes outside of the advanced class.
The challenge for Class E students is Class D. If the challenge is successful, the student can be replaced and promoted successfully. It can be said that it is a bit cruel to climb up on the opponent's head.
Those who will challenge their advanced class are naturally those outstanding students in Class A.
But no matter how outstanding he is, he probably won't have the guts to challenge Lin You and others. It would be a waste of opportunity.
Therefore, Lin You didn't take this matter to heart at all, but there were actually some things worthy of attention.
Guo Rui is in Class A, but I don't know if he has any plans to attack the advanced class this time.
This guy is a little weak in strength, but he has a very bright mind, and he is so rich recently. It is really possible for him to change his skills and start a big fight.
Then there is Gao Jianxiang, who graduated from Jianghua High School like him.
Although I was too busy cultivating during this period and didn't have much contact with him, I had made an appointment to have a meal in the cafeteria before.
He is now a student in Class B, and he is quite successful in Class B. He is also expected to break into Class A this time.
In addition, Lin You did not forget that after the monthly exam in the afternoon, he and Hua Peiling had to register for a task.
At eight o'clock tomorrow, we will go out to perform this task.
Lin You is looking forward to this. He hasn't left school for a long time. He can go out to get some fresh air, test his abilities, and make money along the way. It's really the best of all.
It was about to set off, and a lot of preparation work had been done.
Three days ago, I had my first try in the Ace Realm.
I went there again the next day, but the result was still the same: I fell at the fourth level.
Defeating three ultra-black Dark Triceratops at the same time is extremely difficult.
But even if he failed, Lin You could feel that Chimera was still growing rapidly in this training.
The effect of Ace Realm is beyond imagination. Once Chimera truly cultivates from it to duel level and awakens combat skills, her combat power will be greatly improved.
Super black-level combat skills must be the ultimate killing weapon!
Regardless of these, Lin You has also made progress in terms of magic power.
Reached 216 points.
Six of them are thanks to the third absorption of the magic orb.
After absorbing it, not only the quality is guaranteed, but there is no obstacle at all.
The training effect of the magic heavy pressure floor is also highlighted.
…
After preparing for breakfast, as usual, when arriving at the Red Mansion, Lin You went directly to the advanced class.
Today is said to be a monthly exam, but before the official exam, the challengers will collectively go to the class where the challenged party is located to "make a challenge", and then the winner will be determined in the duel field in order.
The monthly exams are coming soon, and the atmosphere in all major classes is almost tense at this time, but this does not include the advanced classes.
The students present in the advanced class were basically chatting and laughing, either not paying attention to the monthly exam, or chatting casually, with an unusually relaxed mentality.
This is normal. Just because they are in the advanced class, they still have some confidence, otherwise they would not be able to get in.
It is not impossible for students in Class A to surpass themselves, but this is their first monthly exam. If they really have that ability, they will not fail when they are first divided into classes.
Of course, due to the special competition mechanism of the assessment island, it is not surprising that two talented people fell into Class A.
Therefore, not everyone can sit back and relax in the advanced class.
Of course, if the hard power is strong enough, there will naturally be no worries, as is the case for Lin You.
At this moment, he leisurely walked to his seat. After passing by, he smiled and said hello, "Hey, Lao Xia, you came quite early."
"After all, I'm not as strong as you. I still lack some confidence in my heart."
Xia Mu responded with a chuckle.
Lin You was slightly surprised and said: "Lao Xia, this is not your style. You speak so humorously."
Xia Mu smiled, did not say this, and took the initiative to change the subject: "You must have been to the Ace Realm recently, right? How was the effect there?"
"not bad."
After saying that, Lin You was a little surprised and said: "You haven't experienced it? With your current magic power, it should be no problem to control the Black Star Monster, right? What's more, isn't your Letty already capable of life leaps?"
"Yes, yes."
Xia Mu said: "But that's not necessary. The Ace Realm, from its name, explains one thing. It is a training area for ace monsters. Only the appropriate black star monsters that can be called 'ace' have corresponding Training value, it is unrealistic to focus on cultivating all monsters, and it is not easy to get suitable 'ace' monsters."
Lin You suddenly realized that he had just realized this.
yes!
After all, the Black Star Monster is not a piece of cabbage, you can pick it up if you want.
Although there are many powerful black star monsters on display in the exchange mall, with Xia Mu's assets, it is no problem to win one, but what he is after may not be a regular black star monster.
In other words, it used to be the case, but recently it has changed due to certain stimuli.
Without asking any more questions, Lin You nodded, "Indeed, we still have to find the most suitable one, but to be honest, the training effect in the Ace Realm is really good. If possible, it is better to start training as soon as possible. One week Two opportunities cannot be accumulated, it would be a pity to waste them."
"You have to hold on tight, otherwise it will be difficult to accept being pulled too far away."
Xia Mu didn't explain it completely, but Lin You knew the meaning as soon as he heard it.
It seems that he still blames himself for being too dazzling. Even Lao Xia's temper makes him unable to sit still. Is this because he is aroused to be competitive?
It’s okay, only when you have pressure can you be motivated!
This can be regarded as a blessing to the same period!
After some self-identification, I casually chatted with Xia Mu about some trivial matters, and time passed by like this.
Soon, half past eight arrived.
The usual start time of classes today symbolizes the beginning of the monthly exams.
At the door of the classroom, Shang Yu's figure soon appeared, and what was different from the past was that this time, there were several people following behind him.
Some of these people looked familiar. They should be students who Lin You had met on the assessment island. That guy Guo Rui didn't come this time.
Leading a few people in, Shang Yu spread his hands and introduced to them: "Everyone, as you can see, these are the students from Class A who are going to challenge you this time. I would like to remind you, Don't be careless, they all have a lot of confidence in this challenge."
The whole class also became quiet.
It’s not that I felt nervous, nor was the atmosphere solemn, it was a sign of respect for the courage of the challengers.
As for whether he really has that ability, we will know later.
Of course, a few people began to feel uneasy.
Their ability is at the tail end of the entire advanced class, and their confidence is not that strong. In a real duel, the chance of winning is only about 50%.
If possible, I still hope not to be selected by those few, no one will challenge me, and my status as an advanced student will naturally be retained without pressure.
At this moment, Shang Yu also organized the challenge and said with a smile: "Okay, you can first name the person you want to challenge, and then move to the duel field and start the monthly exam in order."
"Then let me go first."
As soon as Shang Yu finished speaking, he saw someone stand up. After this person stood up, his eyes swept across the huge advanced class. When he inadvertently glanced at Lin You, he seemed to be very afraid and lightning-like. Look away.
He actually met Lin You before on the assessment island.
It was in a modern city. Lin You and his Baphomet were 'hunting' everywhere, and he was among those who were unfortunately caught.
He was obviously not weak in strength, but when he encountered such a black star monster, he still ended up with only the word 'miserable'.
It can be regarded as leaving some psychological shadow.
Deliberately avoiding Lin You's eyes, this man named the person he wanted to challenge, and then the other challengers also made their decisions one after another.
In fact, these challengers didn't give much thought to their selection. They may not be familiar with everyone in the advanced class, and they are most likely familiar with those advanced students who were known as 'people of the hour' before entering the school.
Therefore, there is a certain amount of luck involved in selecting people. Those who have memorized the skills may be picked up by a student who is not usually famous but is actually very skilled.
After the selection was completed, Lin You who was sitting in his seat yawned boredly. As expected, today he was only responsible for eating.
"Okay, let's move to the duel arena on the second floor now."
Shang Yu began to direct. Since it was a monthly exam divided by level, everyone would not be gathered in the same venue. Two or three regular duels would suffice.
The challenge of Class A is more convenient. It only has a few people and a few matches. It is enough to go directly to the second floor of the Red Building and find a duel field to serve as the test venue.
…
The second floor of the Red Building.
Duel field.
The monthly exam officially begins soon, and both the challenger and the challenged have already entered the venue.
"Wang Min, deal with him!"
"Zhou Bo, if you have the chance, that's your place!"
The combatants from both sides cheered and cheered, which was considered a warm-up for the duel.
Lin You also sat up. This time he didn't have to do anything on his own. He could just watch others fight. It was good to be a member of the public, but it was a pity that there was no popcorn around him.
Even if there is, it is probably not allowed to be eaten.
It’s the exam!
What does it look like?
serious!
Forget it, you can watch the duel for free without any effort, so be content.
The melon-eaters here are in their seats, and the duel officially begins in the field.
The two quickly completed the soul connection. Coincidentally, they were both users of the Warrior deck.
Of course, it's not a coincidence.
Warrior type is a very popular deck among both newcomers and veteran duelists.
It's relatively common.
…
As soon as the duel started, both sides frequently activated their magic power and activated their cards.
One after another, it feels like a high-speed duel.
This kind of duel looks exciting and progresses quickly.
In less than ten minutes, the winner was decided.
Judging from the entire duel, it was generally evenly matched, but in the end, it was still the student from the advanced class who won the victory.
In the end, the challenger named Zhou Bo had a bad move. In fact, he was just a bit unlucky.
The Wang Min he challenged was close to the average level in the advanced class.
It is self-evidently difficult to win.
But on the other hand, Zhou Bo's strength is indeed good, and he can fight such an opponent to this point.
The few who appeared after him were obviously weaker.
When it came to a duel, even if the balance of victory was not one-sided, it was clearly tilted.
In the end, they all failed.
This also declares that Class A's challenge this time was a complete failure.
This result is quite unexpected.
After all, it stands to reason that there should be a few hidden gems in Class A. Could it be that they didn't show up for the exam?
Lin You didn't think about it at all, but this month's exam ended much earlier than expected.
There are still a few hours left before the appointment with Hua Peiling.
At this moment, the monthly exams here are over and the advanced classes are over. Due to the monthly exams, today's open class is naturally cancelled.
Not only the public courses, but also the courses at Heiyuan.
Personal tutors also need a break!
In addition to challenge days, there are only some specific holidays, exam days and event days.
Of course, there are also breaks in some special circumstances.
For example, this time, when Lin You went out on a mission, Heiyuan naturally had more time to rest.
"That's it. Now that you are free, you can do whatever you have to do."
Shang Yu waved his hand and dismissed everyone in the advanced class.
After briefly greeting a few acquaintances, Lin You left.
…
It was still early, so Lin You first went back to the villa to tidy up, rested for an hour or two, and then ran to the canteen to solve the problem of lunch.
After lunch, it was almost time.
Lin You rushed to the Red Mansion and checked with Hua Peiling before setting off.
The second grade also has monthly exams, but this time, the exams involving their class have ended long ago.
…
Red Mansion.
At the gate.
As soon as he passed by, Lin You saw Hua Peiling waiting at the door. He was a little surprised and said: "So early?"
It's still ten minutes before one o'clock in the afternoon.
Considering that it was not good for girls to wait, he arrived ten minutes early anyway, but he didn't expect to be overtaken first.
"Let's go."
Hua Peiling said lightly, not seeming to take this matter to heart at all, and at this time, there were also some glances from around her.
After all, this is a teaching area, and it's exam day, so there are still some students passing by from time to time.
Seeing Hua Peiling and Lin You together, they all looked surprised, and some couldn't help but gossip secretly.
Obviously, both of them are well-known in Jiangcheng University.
But this bit of gossip, Lin Youquan ignored it, it was a small scene, but he still said to Hua Peiling, "Don't take it to heart, we are a big celebrity in the school, just shield yourself." "
"No one cares."
Hua Peiling's tone remained calm, and Lin You could probably tell that this girl really didn't mind, so she didn't say anything more.
Follow silently, walking somewhere.
…
In less than ten minutes, Hua Peiling led the way and arrived in front of a pure white building.
The building is not high or big, and it is located in the teaching area. On weekdays, freshmen may often pass by it, but not many people care about this building.
There are many buildings in the teaching area, and there are also many similar buildings. However, many buildings cannot be entered casually, so naturally there is no way to pay attention to them.
To understand, you can also find out from the admission handbook.
But this white building was not recorded in the manual, otherwise Lin You would not have known that there was a "student mission" in the school.
Soon, Hua Peiling stepped forward, activated her magic power, and activated her duel card.
Didi!
The duel card was swiped on the sensor on the door, and after an echo was heard, the door opened on its own.
Looking at this posture, this place really requires certain permissions to enter.
Not only that, but this authority can also bring people?
Muttering in his heart, he still moved his feet slowly, following Hua Peiling into the building.
As soon as you enter the door, you are greeted by an unusually empty space.
Inside the building, there are some benches for resting on both sides of the whitewashed walls, and there are several counters near the entrance.
There was a person standing behind the counter.
They all look young, no more than thirty years old.
And aside from these people, there are basically no people visible in the building.
A few people gathered in front of the innermost wall.
From here, you can see that there seem to be a lot of cards stuck on the wall.
If nothing else, it is the task wall, and those cards should symbolize various tasks.
"Xiaoling, are you here to take on another task? Sometimes it's not good to be too diligent. You have to pay attention to the balance between work and rest."
As soon as he came in, he didn't observe it for long when a voice came to his ears, and Lin You couldn't help but look.
The speaker was a young man standing behind one of the counters, with a kind smile on his face.
"Thank you, Senior Lin, for your concern. I know what's appropriate."
Hua Peiling's face was still cold, but she responded in a friendly manner.
After listening to her words, Lin You also understood that this was a senior, and he was probably the kind of senior who had graduated. The same was probably true for the others.
Jiangcheng University is quite good at employing people and directly arranges its graduates to work at the school.
But it's pretty good.
No matter what happens to those who can graduate from here, their abilities will not be any worse. If they are willing to work here, it can be regarded as giving back to the school for their careful cultivation.
"Well, that's good if you understand."
Senior Lin smiled and nodded, not saying much, but his eyes became more curious when he saw Lin You next to Hua Peiling.
Noticing the other party's gaze, Lin You also bowed his hand and was polite.
After that, she and Hua Peiling walked towards the mission wall.
As I got closer, I also noticed that there were a lot of cards on the wall and they were divided into several colors.
White, black, red, and gold should correspond to card levels.
At this moment, someone also took down a white card from the wall.
Seeing this scene, Lin You couldn't help but turned his head and asked, "What level is the mission you mentioned?"
"red."
Hua Peiling replied calmly, but Lin You was slightly stunned.
red?
Why does it sound so weird?
Although I had heard some descriptions from her before, the other party's temperament was probably simplified.
"This is it."
Hua Peiling suddenly pointed at a task card, and Lin You looked at it immediately.
Sure enough, it was a bright red card.
But before he could see clearly, Hua Peiling activated her magic power and removed the card.
The moment she took off the card, the two old students next to her, who obviously knew her and were quietly paying attention to what was going on here, were stunned on the spot.
what's going on?
Red card?
Did she expose it?
Damn it!
Is this ice beauty trying to play with fire? !
The two of them suddenly lost their composure.
