Chapter 43: His Strength Is Too Powerful — Watching It Is Indeed Boring

~7 min read 1,255 words

Li Mingyu chose Hell Difficulty without hesitation.

In his view, Hell Difficulty was equivalent to the monster kill count of Normal Difficulty multiplied by 5.

He was full of confidence in his own combat power.

"First Place kid, even if you won the first round, don't even think about beating me in the second round."

Li Mingyu was brimming with confidence, gripping a Giant Battle Sword in his hand — exactly the Weapon his profession required.

"Look, someone chose Hell Difficulty. Now things are getting interesting."

"It's Li Mingyu, a Level 16 Berserker."

The other Examiners commented on his choice one after another.

"Not bad. The Berserker is a powerhouse even among Rare Professions."

"The Berserker's sustained combat capability is quite good. He should perform excellently in this round."

After consideration, Lu Qingyu chose Normal Difficulty.

As a Rainbow Mage, she was not skilled at close combat, and she lacked a meat shield for protection.

Without a meat shield, she would also find it very difficult to deal with high-strength monsters, so she chose Normal Difficulty and decided to win through numbers.

Lu Qingyu had placed third in the first round, so she also attracted the Examiners' attention.

Seeing Lu Qingyu's choice on the screen, the Examiners all smiled faintly and nodded gently.

"Lu Qingyu can see the current situation clearly and make the optimal judgment for herself. Not bad. A Level 15 Rainbow Mage, very intelligent."

"For mage-type professions, soloing without any Tank or meat shield — if a melee monster gets close, that would really be..."

Han Li, the second-place finisher in the first round, chose Hell Difficulty.

"Hmm, so she's a Level 16 Stealth Assassin..."

The Examiners were also paying close attention to Han Li, a promising talent — all of them the future hope of the Human Race.

As a Stealth Assassin, she possessed

powerful close-quarters combat ability. Whether Hell Difficulty or Nightmare Difficulty, both were good choices for her.

The Examiners commented on her choice one after another.

"The Stealth Assassin is an assassin-type Rare Profession with exceptional close-quarters combat ability."

"So whether it's Hell Difficulty or Nightmare Difficulty, both suit her."

"She is absolutely an Examinee with potential."

Finally, it was Jiang Chen's turn.

The Examiners were also very curious about what choice Jiang Chen would make after hearing the rules.

After hearing the exam rules, Jiang Chen made his choice.

"This round of the exam is actually testing everyone's sustained combat capability. Thirty minutes of continuous fighting poses a certain level of Difficulty for any profession."

"In such a prolonged battle, the attribute consumption is enormous. Sustained battles are the hardest..."

"But I'm the exception," he said with a smile.

Then, he chose Hell Difficulty without hesitation.

What appeared to others as extremely difficult Hell Difficulty was, for Jiang Chen, equivalent to no Difficulty at all.

Besides, choosing Hell Difficulty meant the points and rewards would be even higher.

Regardless of which Difficulty he chose, in the face of the Skeleton Warrior, it would still be an absolute crushing of Four-dimensional Attributes — and instant kills.

"He really chose Hell Difficulty," an Examiner said with a laugh.

"He is both a mage and a Summoner. With a Summoned Entity present, there's no fear of monsters getting close."

"Moreover, his Skill power is very strong. Combined with the support of a Summoned Entity, he is fully capable of achieving an outstanding Score in Hell Difficulty."

"In the past, most Summoners who took the exam also chose Hell Difficulty."

"Mm,

then let's see what kind of surprise today's new profession, the Necromancer Summoner, can bring us!"

All Examinees had made their choices. After the countdown ended, the Second Round Exam began.

Outside the exam venue, across the entire Jiangbei Province, principals from major middle schools gathered together.

"Lao Cheng, you're going to strike it rich this time."

"Tsk tsk, 0.1 seconds — how many years has it been since a Score like that last appeared?"

"Of the top three, Lao Cheng, you alone account for two. You couldn't not strike it rich even if you tried."

"Your No. 1 Middle School is going to be in the spotlight this time."

"If Jiang Chen can bring home a Provincial Top Scholar title, Lao Cheng, you'll be riding high."

Cheng Rushan's face was flushed red, and he was extremely excited.

He hadn't expected that Jiang Chen could achieve such an outstanding Score.

He was so overwhelmed with excitement that he was momentarily speechless, his entire body trembling.

All Examinees had finished making their choices. As the countdown ended, the Second Round Exam began.

A Light Orb appeared before Jiang Chen.

The Light Orb spun in the air, looking like the Entrance to an Instance.

Then, an armored monster stepped out from the Light Orb and let out an angry roar.

With a thought from Jiang Chen, the Skeleton Warrior by his side had already charged forward to meet it.

It brought the Blade straight down on the monster's head.

At the same time, Jiang Chen's Detection Technique also landed on the monster.

"Wofu Orc Warrior (Elite)"

Level: 13

Strength: 500

Agility: 300

Spirit: 150

Constitution: 400

These attributes...

Very weak.

Compared to the Death Mine Dungeon, the Nightmare Level monsters are much weaker.

Jiang Chen immediately understood.

After all, this is an exam; it must accommodate the majority.

If the monsters are too strong, massive elimination awaits.

In that case

the exam would lose its intended meaning.

The purpose of the exam is not to eliminate Examinees, but to select outstanding geniuses.

The Skeleton Warrior's Blade has already landed on the Wolf Werewolf.

Skin torn, flesh exposed.

With just one Blade, the Wolf Werewolf is already on the brink of death.

The Wolf Werewolf was about to counterattack when a second Blade fell.

The Wolf Werewolf dies a gruesome death.

"Two Blades."

Jiang Chen watches, taps a finger, and summons another Skeleton Warrior.

Two Skeleton Warriors, one left and one right, guard the Light Orb, waiting for the monster to appear.

Five seconds later, the second Wolf Werewolf appears.

Then the two Skeleton Warriors swing their Blades, and the Wolf Werewolf dies instantly.

"A bit too simple."

After several rounds, he already understands that each time a monster is killed, a second one appears after five seconds.

This round of the exam tests the sustained combat ability of each class.

The Examiners are already staring in amazement.

"Jiang Chen's Summoned Entity is so strong."

"Stronger than any Summoned Entity we've seen from any Summoner."

"And there are two of them."

"This class... impressive."

Its own Skills are strong, and its Summoned Entity is likewise formidable.

This class is about to ascend.

Jiang Chen's side is far too boring; the two Skeleton Warriors guard the Light Orb, and the monster dies as soon as it appears, not lasting more than 0.5 seconds.

The Examiners no longer wish to watch, and turn to observe other classes.

Lu Qingyu holds a staff, casting Skills.

She chose Normal Difficulty, and the monsters are not strong.

Basically, two Skills can kill one.

She continuously adjusts Skill intensity, striving to reduce Spiritual Power consumption.

Although slightly monotonous, it is far stronger than Jiang Chen's side.

Only this way can the Examiners truly gauge an Examinee's real level.

Just like Jiang Chen's side, a

monster hasn't even had a moment to breathe before being instantly killed by a Skeleton Warrior.

No entertainment value at all, no analytical merit whatsoever...

The power is too great; watching it is indeed boring!
