Chapter 19: Outside Yuliang Pass, three cities gather

At this time, all candidates who passed the written exam had gathered on a square in front of the teaching building.

Parked in front of the square were twenty buses. These were all special vehicles for transporting candidates to the other-dimensional space.

A few minutes later, the teams of each class were counted, and the candidates boarded the buses one after another.

But at this time, head teacher Zhang Lei called out to Chen Fan.

"Chen Fan, wait a moment!"

"What's the matter? Teacher Zhang?" Chen Fan asked, puzzled.

Zhang Lei did not hide the school's intentions and pointed out directly: "Chen Fan, I might as well tell you, the school does not want you to participate in this martial arts test! If you die in the exam hall, it will have a huge impact on the school's reputation."

"So, Teacher Zhang, what do you mean by stopping me?" Chen Fan frowned slightly.

Zhang Lei said: "You don't have to think too much. I'm just following routine to tell you the seriousness of the martial arts exam. As for whether you participate or not, it doesn't matter to me."

"You may not know that the aura emitted by strange beasts will make people feel fear. Ordinary people's mental power is too low, and they don't even have the courage to resist. Are you sure you want to participate?"

"Of course!" Chen Fan said indifferently.

"Since that's the case, then get on the bus!" Seeing this, Zhang Lei didn't say anything more. As the head teacher of the martial arts class, his strength was already Tier 2, so he didn't need to care too much about the pressure given by the school.

After Chen Fan found a seat and sat down, the surrounding classmates cast strange looks one after another.

"Is this kid really participating? Isn't he afraid of death?"

"Who knows, a full score on the written exam shows that he didn't do it on a whim."

"But this kid is already a dead man. Why do I feel a bit creepy sitting in the same car as him?"

The candidates riding together all whispered, and the looks they cast at Chen Fan revealed pity or mockery.

Chen Fan ignored these and closed his eyes to check the system panel.

【Task Difficulty】: F

"I can participate in another double draw!" Chen Fan was a little excited.

Just after he entered the written exam hall, the system issued him a task regarding the written exam, which was also the reason why Chen Fan answered seriously.

"Start the lottery!" Chen Fan muttered in his heart.

Soon the roulette began to turn. The system's electronic sound rang out.

"Congratulations to the host for obtaining one Physique Addition Card and one bottle of Life-Strengthening Milk."

"Life-Strengthening Milk, what is this?" Chen Fan looked at the small jade bottle in front of him and asked the system.

"This is a milk extracted from the fruit of an F-grade plant. Ordinary people can increase their physique points by three points at a time after taking it."

"Good stuff. Although it's useless to me, it can be used by Sister Yanran or Tongtong!" Chen Fan was very satisfied with this reward.

It is said that some other-dimensional spaces produce many magical fruits, which have unexpected effects after consumption, but these things are often hyped to sky-high prices, and one item is hard to find.

After thinking about it, Chen Fan decided to let Wang Yanran take it. Tongtong was still young and her bones had not developed, so he was afraid that taking this kind of thing would be counterproductive.

Chen Fan did not choose to extract this bottle of Life-Strengthening Milk. If he suddenly had an extra item in his hand, he was afraid it would attract other people's attention.

"Use the Physique Addition Card!" Chen Fan did not hesitate and clicked to use it directly. After a refreshing feeling, his physique reached 48 points!

"One step closer to the provincial top scholar!" Chen Fan was satisfied.

Twenty buses drove out of the campus in a mighty manner, heading toward the suburbs of Qingcheng City.

At the same time, Principal Zhang Zongwen and Grade Director Du Jiang had already received the news that Chen Fan was going to participate in the martial arts exam, and the two felt as if the sky was about to collapse.

Du Jiang asked in a low voice: "Principal, should I just detain him directly!"

Zhang Zongwen's eyes were burning with anger: "Fool! There are so many news media outside paying attention to us now, do you think you can hide it from them?"

"Then... what should we do?" Du Jiang's face was ugly, and he spoke weakly.

"There's no other way, we can only pray that he is a lucky one!" Zhang Zongwen sighed and said: "Let's go, the opening ceremony of the martial arts test, you and I still have to attend. Put away that expression of yours as if your parents died, don't let other schools make a joke of us."

"Okay... okay!" Du Jiang hurriedly agreed.

The bus drove on the road. After driving out of the city, the traces of human habitation on both sides of the road soon disappeared.

An hour later, the motorcade drove into a barren mountain and finally stopped outside a town.

Head teacher Zhang Lei said to everyone on the bus: "This is the junction of Qingcheng, Yancheng, and Weicheng. There is an entrance to an other-dimensional space here. At that time, candidates from all three cities will participate in the martial arts exam here!"

After Zhang Lei finished speaking, he pointed outside the window and said: "Do you see the town outside? It's called Yuliang Town, also known as Yuliang Pass.

A legion of ability users with a thousand people is stationed here. Their duty is to guard this entrance to the other-dimensional space and kill all strange beasts that break into Blue Star!"

"In a while, after the joint exam ceremony of the three cities is over, you will all pass through here, enter this other-dimensional space, and start the martial arts test!"

Everyone was curious and leaned out to look at the town. The outermost part of Yuliang Town was surrounded by a high-voltage electric fence ten meters high, and the whole town had only one road in and out.

Outside the town was a huge cement square. At this time, more than two hundred buses had already gathered here.

Zhang Lei looked at his watch and said to everyone on the bus: "Everyone, take your admission tickets and your respective weapons and get off the bus, and gather in front of the rostrum on the square!"

At the same time, candidates from more than two hundred buses got off the bus one after another.

The crowd was dense, with more than five thousand people!

The square was huge, and candidates from each school occupied a separate area.

At this time, a tall youth carrying double axes in the Qingcheng No. 1 High School team left the team and walked toward the square formation of Qingcheng No. 3 High School. The appearance of this person immediately attracted the gazes of many people.

"Isn't this Yun Tianba from Qingcheng No. 1 High School? What is he doing running over to our side? He looks aggressive, like he's looking for trouble?"

"I don't know. I heard that this person is an A-grade ability user and also has Tier 1 late-stage cultivation! He is a strong competitor for the first place in this joint exam of the three cities. Who is so unlucky to have provoked this fierce god?"

The youth carrying double axes was Yun Tianba. He came to the front of the No. 3 High School team and shouted loudly: "Where is Chen Fan? Where is he?"

"Chen Fan? Is he looking for that liberal arts student Chen Fan?"

"How did Chen Fan offend this fierce god? Is he afraid he will die very ugly?"

Everyone whispered, but no one pointed out Chen Fan's location. After all, no one wanted to meddle in other people's business.

However, in the Class 4 team, the fat man Xiong Shan was overjoyed. He raised his hand and shouted loudly: "Chen Fan is here!" ===== CHAPTER 20 =====
