Chapter 80: Bloody Harvest! Daxia City's 5S Genius Squad!

Inside the Peak Secret Realm.

Just as the two teams of candidates from Tianlan City turned to withdraw from the forest.

Zhou Chu, disguised as Gadi, used Void Shuttle to arrive above their heads.

The Grim Reaper had already arrived quietly, yet these candidates were completely unaware.

Within the formless void, the corners of Zhou Chu's mouth curled up slightly, and the Silence Blade in his hand was already primed and ready.

"Eight people, tight formation; just one Void Assassination plus one Endless Slaughter will be enough to finish them off easily!"

Zhou Chu calculated inwardly, a cold smile revealing itself in his eyes.

Below, the two teams of Tianlan City candidates were cautiously retreating toward the outside of the forest.

Their expressions remained tense, constantly vigilant for any danger that might reappear in their surroundings.

"Everyone stay as close as possible, Combat Department on the outside, support classes on the inside; we must protect Liu Yu."

That burly candidate holding a long blade reminded everyone in a low voice.

The others nodded one after another, huddling tightly together, weapons gripped firmly in their hands as their formation began to shift.

However, they could never have imagined that the Grim Reaper was hanging right above their heads at this moment, and a sudden slaughter was about to descend.

Just then, Liu Yu, who was walking in the very center, heard a disturbance caused by the plants in his ears.

He suddenly raised his head and looked toward the direction above.

But there was nothing there.

This caused Liu Yu's brow to furrow involuntarily.

Logically speaking, under his plant perception, once there was any sign of movement, all the plants could tip him off.

This was the unique secret skill of a Natural Warlock.

Among the candidates from Tianlan City, whether in terms of Soul Profession Quality or level, Liu Yu was a one-of-a-kind existence.

Surely, no matter how powerful those assassin-type Calamity monsters were, they couldn't possibly launch an attack from the air!

It seemed he was just being overly sensitive!

Thinking of this, Liu Yu couldn't help but relax his guard slightly, using his plant perception to continue scanning the surroundings.

However, right at this moment, Zhou Chu launched Void Assassination.

A jet-black ray of light was seen instantly shooting out from the void, like a black bolt of lightning, charging straight toward the group of candidates below.

The speed was so fast that no one had time to make any reaction at all.

"Sma—" Liu Yu wanted to shout, but before the sound could spread, that jet-black ray of light had already pierced into the body of a candidate at the very front of the group.

That candidate didn't even have time to let out a scream before his body was instantly torn apart, turning into a mist of blood.

Immediately following, Zhou Chu's figure shuttled through the candidate group like a ghost, the Silence Blade in his hand continuously bringing up streaks of blood, each time taking away the life of a candidate.

In just a brief moment, all eight candidates had been harvested clean.

Only the blood mist lingering in the air and the Assessment Crystals continuously scattering onto the ground remained.

Zhou Chu stood where he was, the Silence Blade in his hand still slowly dripping with fresh blood; this hearty and unbridled feeling of slaughter was simply exhilarating!

He crouched down slightly and began to collect the scattered Assessment Crystals on the ground unhurriedly, placing them all into his Storage Space.

He counted them; there were 42 in total.

Adding the ones he had collected previously, the total now came to 66.

A total of 10 people, averaging 4 per person, which added up to quite a lot.

These candidates from Tianlan City would never have imagined that they would die so quickly.

And they hadn't managed to get a single one of the hard-earned Assessment Crystals, all of which had become Zhou Chu's spoils.

Outside the Peak Secret Realm.

Just as that examiner had finished asking his question and was preparing to turn back.

Eight more candidates were instantly sent out in front of him.

Among these candidates, some were dejected, while others still had blank expressions, seemingly unaware of how they had died.

Especially that Natural Warlock named Liu Yu; he was currently frowning, his eyes filled with disbelief and annoyance.

He couldn't figure out how, despite having been on alert, he still hadn't managed to escape this disaster, leading to the total annihilation of the entire Tianlan City candidate team.

"What on earth was that black shadow?" Liu Yu muttered to himself, his mind continuously replaying the scene that had just occurred inside the Secret Realm.

It was estimated that even this examiner hadn't expected that, in just a few seconds, so many more candidates would be eliminated.

Was this speed a bit too fast?

However, he still asked these candidates a question: "Are there any students from Tianhua No. 1 High School among you?"

These eliminated candidates looked at each other, then shook their heads one after another, indicating that they were students from Tianlan City.

The other examiners, seeing so many people eliminated at once, couldn't help but reveal a hint of surprise.

Tianlan City had a total of ten people enter the First Tier this time.

Unexpectedly, in just ten minutes, they had all been eliminated, becoming the first to withdraw from the qualification to compete for Shenxia University.

Among these candidates, which one of them didn't have a higher Soul Profession Quality than that Zhou Chu from Tianhua No. 1 High School?

Perhaps these Tianlan City candidates just didn't have very good luck and encountered that 5S squad from Daxia City.

If that were truly the case, then it wouldn't be unjust for these candidates to be sent out so early.

One must know that this 5S squad from the Didu was held in high regard.

Not only that, but every one of them had long since obtained the qualification to compete for the Exorcism Army's special operations squad.

In other words, this genius squad didn't need to participate in the selection process and had already secured a ticket to the special operations squad's recruit training camp.

In the future, whether it be the Exorcism Army's Xiaolong Squad or the soon-to-be-formed Hurricane Squad, there would be a place for them.

Furthermore, a few months later, they will also be qualified to participate in the National Defense University's special training camp.

After graduation, the minimum rank they will receive is Sergeant.

Therefore, in the eyes of these examiners, this genius squad from Daxia City is bound to stand out in this Peak Secret Realm, and the 5 admission spots for Shenxia University are guaranteed.

Tianlan City getting off to a bad start is also the general trend.

At this moment, inside the Peak Secret Realm.

The candidate squad from Tianhua No. 3 Middle School, led by He Muxue, just happened to encounter this genius 5S-Grade squad from Daxia City.

Tianhua No. 3 Middle School was already at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, and at this moment, encountering this ladder squad composed of 5 S-Grade geniuses, they instantly felt an inexplicable sense of oppression from the other side.

This genius squad from Daxia City consists of four men and one woman.

They are composed of a Warrior, a Priest, a Marksman, a Mage, and an Assassin.

The female Soul Professional at the lead, wearing armor alternating between gold and white and holding a two-handed greatsword in her hand, should be the Captain of this squad.

Such a squad can be described as having both offense and defense on the battlefield, and they can absolutely be called the elite of the elite.

The key is that these five people are all S-Grade Soul Professionals, which inherently gives them uniqueness and an advantage in their Soul Professions.

In contrast, looking at He Muxue's squad of four, apart from He Muxue who is an S-Grade Soul Professional, the other three are two A-Grades and one B-Grade.

If the two squads were to fight, whether in terms of numbers or overall configuration, it would be a rhythm of being crushed by the opponent.

There is simply no chance of winning.

However, when this 5S-Grade squad saw this squad from Tianhua No. 3 Middle School, they did not seem to have any intention of making a move against them.

A trace of arrogance and contempt appeared on everyone's faces, as if the squad in front of them was not even worth them making a move.

Instead, they calmly passed by them and walked straight toward the forest in the distance.
