Chapter 3: Activating the Knight Century, Wu Kao's Score
He didn't know if it was because of his love for the limelight,
She Yuanlong's voice was very loud as he discussed with the people around him,
as if he were eager for everyone to know he had a refresh opportunity,
and through their conversation,
Su Tian also learned what this refresh opportunity meant.
During the Wu Kao, people of this world would enter [Knight Century] for the first time!
And upon entering,
there would be a Knight Selection!
Similar to a beginner's grand gift pack in an online game.
Knight Selection, as the name implies,
is to let you choose your first Kamen Rider,
a three-out-of-one choice!
But the Kamen Riders drawn in this Knight Selection are usually not strong,
such as Kamen Rider Kurokage, Kamen Rider Lio Trooper, and so on...
Of course,
if you have good luck, it is also possible to draw a decent Kamen Rider.
And the refresh opportunity She Yuanlong spoke of,
is for when you are unsatisfied with the three initial Kamen Riders,
you can refresh the Knight Selection once,
but a refresh opportunity is very hard to come by,
even She Yuanlong's father had to pay an immense price to obtain it.
Moreover, it's not certain that a good one will be refreshed,
it is merely one more chance to choose.
Time slowly passed while Su Tian went online to learn about this world.
Twenty minutes before the Wu Kao time was about to arrive,
the Wu Kao's invigilating teacher approached the classroom,
this was a middle-aged man with a square face,
wearing a straight Zhongshan suit.
"Hello students, there are twenty minutes left before you enter the Wu Kao!"
"My surname is Zhong, and I am your Wu Kao teacher for this session."
"Next, I will lead you into [Knight Century]!"
After Zhong Wu finished speaking, all the students below the podium looked at him with faces full of anticipation.
And Zhong Wu on the podium also extended his right fist,
on the back of his right fist, a crest was clearly visible.
"Is that... the Knight Crest of Kamen Rider Kuuga?"
Su Tian had excellent eyesight and instantly recognized the crest on the back of Zhong Wu's hand,
it was unmistakably the crest of Kamen Rider Kuuga.
This crest represented one of the Knight Belts that Zhong Wu possessed,
at the same time,
this crest was also the 'key' to entering [Knight Century]!
Actually, for the people of this world,
from the moment they were born,
everyone would have such a crest on the back of their right hand,
now it was merely a matter of activating it.
Under normal circumstances, most people activate their Knight Crest at the age of eighteen,
at this age, their development is mostly complete,
and entering [Knight Century] would also have a certain guarantee of safety.
"Alright, it's about to begin!"
Zhong Wu raised his right hand high and reminded loudly:
"Everyone, do not close your eyes!"
As soon as his words fell,
the Kuuga crest on the back of Zhong Wu's right hand bloomed with intense light,
this light was very dazzling,
but none of the people closed their eyes,
staring straight at the light blooming from the Kuuga crest.
As if drawn by the light,
among the students, faint light also began to respond from someone's chest,
finally these lights transformed into streaming light,
gathering at the back of the right hand, turning into a ? crest.
Su Tian was no exception,
looking at the ? crest on the back of his right hand,
Su Tian could clearly feel that he seemed able to enter another world at any time,
[Knight Century]!
The light gradually dissipated, and all the students' access to enter [Knight Century] was activated.
However, because they had not yet obtained the power of the Masked Knights,
the emblems on the backs of the students' right hands were all question marks.
After activating the access, Zhong Wu checked his watch.
Ten minutes left!
He opened his mouth and said:
"Everyone's access to enter [Knight Century] has been activated!"
"The martial exam will begin in ten minutes."
"Now I will first introduce to you the rules of this new martial exam."
New martial exam rules?
Hearing this, the students below immediately listened with rapt attention.
Seeing this, Zhong Wu explained the rules of the martial exam using the fastest and most concise words.
The reason it is called the new martial exam,
is because this martial exam is different from all previous ones!
In past martial exams,
candidates usually had two examination methods.
One was fighting against simulated monsters in [Knight Century].
The other was fighting against designated examiners!
These two were equivalent to creating a room to play against a computer, or a Solo!
Safety could be guaranteed in both.
The new martial exam was a reform implemented just this year.
The reason for the reform was that Daxia Anguo had obtained control of a dungeon in [Knight Century]!
This also made Daxia Anguo the only country on Blue Star to obtain dungeon control.
Dungeons!
Are special existences within [Knight Century]!
There are many ways for players to obtain the rewards they want,
and dungeons are a relatively easier one.
For certain powerful dungeons, upon clearing them, one could even obtain a random Knight Belt!
However, unfortunately,
the instance obtained by Great Xia's Anguo was only a novice instance,
with very meager rewards.
Fortunately, the difficulty inside was also very low,
so it was used as the examination map for the martial examination!
"Teacher Zhong, can the specific contents of this novice instance be known beforehand?"
After Zhong Wu finished speaking, She Yuanlong below the podium was the first to ask.
"No!" Zhong Wu shook his head, understanding She Yuanlong's intent, and explained:
"I can only tell you some simple rules."
"The number of people in this instance will be five!"
"These five people will be randomly selected from the examinees of Great Xia's Anguo."
"In other words, this martial examination will no longer be a competition among examinees from the same examination room."
"But among all the examinees of Great Xia's Anguo!"
Once these words were spoken, even Su Tian was startled in his heart;
if randomly matched with all the examinees of Great Xia's Anguo,
it would be full of uncertainty.
If the strong from a single class had bad luck with their matching, they might get a poor score,
while a relatively weaker examinee,
with good luck, might obtain a better score.
However, fortunately,
Zhong Wu's next words let the examinees breathe a sigh of relief:
"In groups of five, after this mission is completed or the time runs out,"
"[Knight Century] will evaluate the five of you."
"This evaluation is your martial examination score."
"Everyone's evaluation will be different; this depends on your contribution within the instance!"
"Therefore, as long as you focus on completing the mission, you will definitely obtain a very good score!"
