The Prodigies War-Novel

Chapter 132 Assessment Result

In truth, without Shi Yu’s reminder, the others would have instinctively darted away. They had also quickly located the attackers’ location.

Very quickly, three figures were coming towards them from afar. They were, of course, the short and chubby teenager Ye Xiaoqi, Lei Xinyue, and an unfamiliar youngster.

Their appearance had ruined Qi Can’s plan. The faces of Qi Can and the others turned dark and unpleasant but no one dared to act recklessly.

The situation was very strange. Lin Xun, Shi Yu, and Ning Meng were seriously injured, and they were only united with Qi Can and his party on the outside. However, even if they all hoped for each other to suffer a disaster, they had to temporarily stand on the same side in front of Ye Xiaoqi and the others from the 40th Campground

After all, they all represented the 39th Campground. It would be ridiculous for them to attack each other since it would only create an opportunity for their opponents to take advantage of.

Ye Xiaoqi and the others came to a stop a dozen of feet away and didn’t advance forward.

“Your performance just now was wonderful. I wouldn’t have stopped you if it wasn’t for the fact that I really admire that guy’s blade art and couldn’t bear to see him eliminated.” Ye Xiaoqi sighed regretfully.

The guy he was referring to was, of course, Lin Xun.

Qi Can and the others suddenly looked even worse. Only then did they understand why the arrow was fired at Xin Wenbin.

“Lin Xun, when did you hook up with a little fat man from the 40th Campground?” Shi Yu asked in puzzlement.

“What do you mean by hook up?” Lin Xun snapped. “I hate the fact that I can’t slaughter that guy, okay?”

Shi Yu exclaimed in surprise, “No way, the little fat man just saved your life. You two seem to have a very complicated relationship.”

Lin Xun was amazed that Shi Yu could still joke around at such a time.

“Hehe, this is called appreciating each other. Shi Yu, people like you won’t understand.” Ye Xiaoqi laughed, his eyes were already small, but when he smiled they narrowed into straight lines.

“Don’t talk nonsense! Now that you’re here, don’t even think about leaving!”

Qi Can seethed with anger when he saw them chatting and ignoring their existence.

“Qi Can, I don’t think you’re stupid but you sound unbelievably stupid right now. Have you not realized that there are less than two minutes until the assessment ends?”

Ye Xiaoqi asked in bewilderment, “Do you think there’s a point in continuing to fight?”

He might have seemed like he was giving a friendly reminder but his tone was full of mockery.

Flushing with anger, Qi Can thundered, “Even if there is only one minute left, I will fight to the end!”

As he was roaring, he furiously charged forward and his spear shot beams of cold light everywhere. An imposing aura rushed out from his body.

Ye Xiaoqi raised his hand with a smile, and a dark Armor Piercing Blood Crossbow producing a blood-red sheen appeared in his grip. He pointed it at Qi Can who was rushing towards him from afar.

Buzz!

A sharp rune arrow was fired out with a terrifying whistle. It split the air and shot towards Qi Can with unbelievable speed.

With a swoosh, Qi Can threw himself to one side to evade the arrow, his pupils rapidly shrinking.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

Another round of arrows was quickly fired. Rune arrows shining with dazzling luster shot towards Qi Can from different directions like blades sent from hell to capture souls.

Qi Can had no choice but to evade and retreat from the rapid firing. By the time he escaped from the shower of arrows, he had returned to where he was previously standing.

Qi Can’s expression grew worse and worse, and he couldn’t help cursing. That damn fatty!

“Okay, let’s stop it. Everyone may become students of the same camp after the assessment. Why start a fight at this time and ruin our friendship?” Ye Xiaoqi said with a smile.

His simple and honest expression coupled with his innocent words unexpectedly sounded strongly sarcastic. He truly had a very special ability.

As Lin Xun, Shi Yu, and Ning Meng watched the situation unfold, the expressions on their faces turned a little strange.

The little fatty is simply an expert in making people hate him. Anyone who sees him would somehow feel an urge to beat him up.

Such an ability is very rare!

Qi Can was clearly suppressing his fury with all his might. Just as he was about to say something, a deep bell rang three times in a row in the sky.

It was the signal of the end of the assessment!

“Ah, it’s over so soon. I wanted to have a good chat with everyone. Never mind, there will be a chance again in the future. Farewell for now.”

Ye Xiaoqi sighed, gave a cupped fist salute to everyone, and left with Lei Xinyue and another teenager.

“So annoying!”

Qi Can squeezed out two words from between his teeth. He hated the little fat man to the bone.

On the other hand, Wen Mingxiu’s and Mou Lengxin’s expressions were changing indefinitely.

They had originally planned to take advantage of Lin Xun. Unexpectedly, not only did Xin Wenbin suffer a surprise attack, but Qi Can was also rudely mocked by Ye Xiaoqi and the others. The sudden change caught them off guard.

The assessment was already over by the time they were able to react!

On the contrary, Lin Xun, Shi Yu, and Ning Meng smiled in relief. They didn’t try to disguise the coldness in their eyes when they looked at Qi Can and the others.

……

The tense and brutal first monthly assessment had come to an end.

In the evening of the same day, the assessment results were announced.

At the time, Lin Xun was treating his injury. He was so wounded that he had to be immediately sent to the treatment area in the 39th Campground. Shi Yu and Ning Meng were also there.

There were special medics in the Blood Kill Camp with superb medical skills. With such good medical care, they could recover regardless of how wounded they were as long as they were still breathing.

Very quickly, the assessment results were distributed to each student.

The first thing it read was: the 40th Campground has failed!

Lin Xun exhaled a long breath of turbid air. We finally won! This means that the 40th Campground won’t exist anymore!

Cheers erupted from the campground. Although it was loud and lively, it was sparse and couldn’t be compared to how it was in the past.

This was normal. In the month before the monthly assessment, twenty-six people had been eliminated from the 39th Campground. Afterward, another twelve of the remaining twenty-four students were eliminated in the monthly assessment. They were asked to leave the Blood Kill Camp due to their poor overall score.

In other words, only twelve people were remaining in the 39th Campground.

Lin Xun was one of them.

His overall score before the monthly assessment was 469 points and was only regarded as average.

He won a total of seven nameplates in the monthly assessment, which was a pretty good result. However, he was still only considered average when all his previous scores were added together.

Lin Xun was already very satisfied that he hadn’t been eliminated.

“Damn it, I can’t believe someone like Qi Can is above me…” Shi Yu looked a little troubled on the hospital bed.

He had very bad luck in the monthly assessment. Gong Ming had pestered him since the start of the assessment and consequently, his result was worse than Lin Xun. However, he was still ranked in the top when all his previous results were added together.

“Hey hey, hey hey...” Ning Meng smiled smugly on the other hospital bed. He had achieved pretty good results, which was better than Shi Yu, Qi Can, and even better than many others.

He was ranked first among the remaining twelve students in the 39th Campground.

“ First place was given to a fool. This is a disgrace to our 39th Campground.” Shi Yu mocked.

Lin Xun listened helplessly. He knew that the two were going to endlessly talk smack to each other again.

……

Three days later, the patients in the 39th Campground had fully recovered after receiving medical treatment from a group of medics in the Blood Kill Camp, and they were leaping and frisking about.

The news that the 40th Campground would be removed and that the eighteen students in the 40th Campground would merge with the 39th Campground spread throughout the camp.

Gong Ming, Di Jun, Lei Xinyue, Ye Xiaoqi, and others were among them.

They and Lin Xun and the eleven other students formed the brand-new 39th Campground.

Like that, the 40 campgrounds of Blood Kill Camp now became twenty campgrounds. And like the 39th Campground, each one consisted of thirty students.

In total, there were still six hundred students in Blood Kill Camp!

A month ago, two thousand students came to participate in the camp. In other words, one thousand and four hundred people were eliminated in just one month of time!

The rate of elimination was astonishing.

Naturally, this indicated that the remaining students were the elites among the elites.

……

Daily training resumed on the fourth day after the monthly assessment.

Many of the training sessions had changed. For example, practical training no longer involved fighting with savage beasts but changed to battles with low-level cultivators from the Darkness Races!

The three largest races in the Darkness Kingdom were the Magi Brute Race, Abyss Demon Spirit, and Moon Soul Race.

But the Magi Brute Race was the greatest enemy of the Ziyao Empire.

The Magi Brute Race was divided into nine sub-races, and each one had a special combat talent. The race had millions of fighters and many were distributed around the empire’s border.

As a cultivator in the empire, the best and quickest way to understand the enemy was to fight against them!

Although large-scale battles between the empire and the Darkness Kingdom hadn’t happened in hundreds of years and it was rare to see enemies from the Darkness Kingdom in the empire’s territory, it was easy to battle with the Darkness Races in Blood Kill Camp.

Many fighters from the Magi Brute Race were imprisoned in some extremely secretive training grounds such as Fire Brutes, Water Brutes, Gold Brutes, Earth Brutes, Wood Brutes, Wind Brutes, Mad Brutes, Lightning Brutes, and Star Brutes.

However, they were all brute slaves, which were ranked at the bottom of the race.

Brute slaves were equivalent to True Martial Stage cultivators.

From that day on, a compulsory subject for each student of Blood Kill Camp was to fight with brute slaves!

As written on the sword-shaped stone tablet in front of the Blood Kill Camp’s entrance: “Violet Glory Flower is undefeated because of blood kill and the empire exists forever because of continued expeditions!”

War would never completely end unless all the enemies perished.
