Chapter 60: Mr. Cai's Difficulties [Seeking Monthly Tickets]
Chen Yi looked at the stunned crowd and slowly spoke,
"The third test will primarily test your flexibility and courage.
You'll need to pass through these guillotines. If you complete it within thirty seconds, you'll get six points. Every second more or less will net you one point more or less.
The previous two tests primarily tested your mental strength and teamwork, and neither was life-threatening.
But this one is different. If you're struck by the guillotines, you'll literally die!
And if you fail this test, none of your other exams will count.
In other words, if any of you fail this one, you can prepare to buy a ticket home!"
Then, at Chen Yi's command, the guillotines suddenly began to move.
With a bang, they all went to work.
The first guillotine dropped from the sky, impacting the groove and sending up countless sparks.
Xu Xiaoyan's face paled at the terrifying spectacle.
Gu Yuena, however, remained calm. She raised her delicate hand, and a stone appeared in the groove of the guillotine.
As the guillotine fell, a "crack" sounded, and the clod of earth was severed in half.
Gu Yuena slowly spoke, "It should be around 5,000 kilograms."
"Only 5,000 kilograms?
Boss Huo, let me do it!"
Tang Wulin volunteered.
Seeing Tang Wulin's confident expression, Chen Yi's face was filled with questions: "Only 5,000 kilograms?
Are all kids this arrogant these days?"
Then, Chen Yi shouted, "Three, two, one, start!"
As soon as Chen Yi finished shouting, Tang Wulin moved.
A golden spirit ring of energy and blood floated from Tang Wulin's body, and then his golden dragon claws emerged.
Tang Wulin extended his right hand and grabbed the massive guillotine.
Shen Yi was stunned. She had seen countless ways to pass the third exam.
Some relied on speed, some on skill, and many, fearing the guillotine and ultimately failing.
But she had never seen anyone grasp the guillotine with their bare hands like Tang Wulin!
That was five thousand kilograms!
Even a powerful attack-type spirit master of his age didn't possess the strength of five thousand kilograms!
In the moment Shen Yi was stunned, Tang Wulin's right hand had already grasped the scythe.
Oh no! Tang Wulin could be injured!
But even if Shen Yi intervened now, it was too late to protect Tang Wulin!
"KING!"
Amidst Shen Yi's exclamation, Tang Wulin's right hand steadily held the guillotine.
"Boss Huo, let's go!"
Xie Xie exclaimed, "Wulin, you're amazing!
It seems all those long meals you eat every day aren't in vain!"
Xu Xiaoyan kicked Xie Xie, "Stop talking nonsense! Hurry up!
You're using Wulin like a jack!
If she runs out of energy, none of us will be able to pass!"
"Yeah, then hurry up!" Xie Xie responded hastily.
Then, Huo Yuhao and his group passed the third test under Shen Yi's stunned gaze!
Shen Yi was already numb! What kind of monsters were these!
"Ten seconds!"
This was the time it took Huo Yuhao and his five companions to pass the third test.
Tang Wulin shook his slightly numb hands. "It's okay, not too heavy.
It just took a lot of energy, so I'm a little hungry!"
Xie Xie patted Tang Wulin's shoulder. "Wulin, I'll treat you to dinner!"
Tang Wulin chuckled. "What's the matter? Aren't you afraid I'll bankrupt you?"
"Hahahaha—"
Amidst Shen Yi's silence and the laughter of Huo Yuhao and his group, they arrived at the venue for the fourth exam.
This time, Huo Yuhao and the others were led into an empty room.
Shen Yi informed them that this round would test their specialties, pointing to a chair at the side of the room.
"Wait here for a moment. I'll call the examiner over.
This round will only test each of your strongest specialties.
So, you must carefully consider which specialties you want to demonstrate to best satisfy the examiner!"
Specialty tests generally focus on the skills most closely related to their abilities.
For example, a Sensitive Attack type like Xie Xie would have to demonstrate his agility to the utmost. And a Power Attack type like Tang Wulin would have to demonstrate his offensive power to the utmost.
Not long after, Shen Yi returned to the room, accompanied by two middle-aged men and an elderly woman.
Shen Yi and the two middle-aged men were extremely respectful to the elderly woman, clearly holding a very high position within Shrek Academy. The elderly woman
, clutching a cane, walked unsteadily, even appearing to be on the verge of falling.
After the elderly woman sat down, she glanced at Huo Yuhao and his group, then at Shen Yi: "Little Yi Yi, let's begin."
Shen Yi respectfully replied, "Yes, Master Cai."
Shen Yi asked Huo Yuhao and the other four,
"This Master Cai will be the examiner for your fourth exam. Who will go first?"
Xie Xie volunteered, "I'll go first!"
He then walked to the center of the arena and unleashed his martial spirit. Three spirit rings rose beneath his feet.
He summoned three figures, each of which unleashed a sudden attack with a sword technique.
The two middle-aged men showed a hint of surprise, while Elder Cai also showed a touch of admiration.
Next came Xu Xiaoyan. After Xu Xiaoyan unleashed his martial spirit, Elder Cai said,
"Alright, next."
With Elder Cai's knowledge, he was undoubtedly familiar with the Xu family's inherited martial spirit.
Then came Tang Wulin, who told Elder Cai that his greatest strength was strength.
Elder Cai then simply asked Tang Wulin to punch him.
Tang Wulin hesitated at first, but then, urged by Elder Cai, he delivered a punch.
Unexpectedly
, Elder Cai, seemingly frail and frail, actually caught Tang Wulin's punch with aplomb. It was clear that Elder Cai merely looked older; he was actually a supremely powerful being.
Then, it was Gu Yuena's turn. Gu Yuena demonstrated a trick of elemental fusion.
Elder Cai's eyes lit up with admiration at Gu Yuena's ability to manipulate multiple elements simultaneously, and he gushed over her unique talents.
The last person to take the stage was Huo Yuhao, whose forte was naturally his mental power.
Elder Cai instructed him to attack her mentally.
Then, Huo Yuhao unleashed a mental blast at Elder Cai.
Elder Cai was stunned for a moment, then a look of shock crossed his face.
This Huo Yuhao was no ordinary person!
Just as Huo Yuhao and his group were happily convinced they had passed the fourth level, Elder Cai's next words left them speechless.
"With your talent, you can directly join the Inner Court, but only if you leave the Spirit Pagoda!
If you don't agree, go back to where you came from!"
