Everyone was recalled within an hour, and if they didn't appear, it was probably more than lucky.

In the open space, as more and more people appeared, the sound of conversation never stopped, and the most talked about was this sudden beast tide.

The forest, where there had never been a large-scale herd of beasts, cast a layer of panic on everyone's hearts.

"It's from that mountain." One of the examiners pointed to the location of their third exam, and then said, "Do you want to continue the assessment?" ”

The eyes of the others fell on the middle-aged and sturdy man in single clothes the next moment, and Feng Peng, who was also in charge of the assessment.

The atmosphere was dreary for a moment, something that had never happened in previous editions, and even once in the history of Dark City.

More than 600 years ago, a volcano erupted on one of the side peaks of the mountain range, and the runic beasts sensing the natural disaster went crazy and rushed to the Tarimogo Plains in the northwest.

"Could it be a volcano again?" An examiner who has a little knowledge of local history said.

Feng Peng pondered for a long time, looked in the direction of the mountain range, and said, "Send four people to investigate with me, and the rest will send the candidates back to the city." ”

……

The forest is the same as the dry land of the underworld, the location is outside the city, and it is farther away, the movement of the beast tide did not affect the people in the city, only a few people with six senses are sensitive, thoughtfully walked to the window, looking at the direction of the forest.

The second assessment was only halfway through, Xia Xiongfei was surprised by the few people who came back halfway, and then found that there were a few people missing, his face couldn't help but change slightly, and he hurriedly pulled Luo Xi to ask.

Not only the Danfu Alliance, but also a few other major forces more or less disappeared into the beast tide, and the lobby downstairs of the guest house was surrounded by people who came out to inquire about the news.

"I've heard that it seems to be the third assessment that something went wrong with the venue." On a table in the lobby, someone poured a bowl of wine and gossiped.

"Where, where, it's clear that the beast tide from nowhere is disrupting the game." Someone retorted.

Someone immediately said, "I'll do the math, this is the second assessment, right?" ”

"Speaking of which, the first two assessments were not allowed to watch the game, and I was expecting the third game to open my eyes, but now that this kind of thing has happened, I don't know if the game will be postponed?"

"I don't think so." There was a humane person at the adjacent table, "Those are the nine-star powerhouses from the Spirit Rune Academy, and they are just beasts, and they are expected to have results in the near future." ”

"It's just that, I'm afraid this second assessment will be invalidated."

"I think so." One person rolled his eyes and said, "I heard that the beast tide has lost a lot of people this time, and these people are lucky to survive." ”

In the past, due to the restrictions of the rules, there were no casualties.

This time it was stirred up by the beast tide, and the second assessment ended early, not to mention, it was the people who were partially injured, and it also greatly improved the qualification rate of those who remained.

After all, there are regulations on how many people are selected in each assessment.

Compared with the noise of the people in the city, most of the returning assessors returned to their rooms to rest after being questioned.

The second assessment was suspended, and the third assessment did not know when it would start, and what they had to do now was to recharge their energy to face the next unexpected situation.

Ling Yi had not returned from an expedition, and after Jing Chen came back, he first took a bath, then ate a big meal, and slept comfortably on the bed.

Hei Tian slept until dark, and when dinner was approaching, Jing Chen was woken up by a knock on the door.

"There's news...... Forehead. Luo Xi saw the stupid hair on Jing Chen's head, and laughed very shamelessly.

Jing Chen ripped his hair with black lines on his head, and said in an unkind tone, "You'd better pray that the following words are enough to impress me, otherwise be ready to be kicked out by me." ”

This is wake-up gas, this is really wake-up gas. Luo Xi glanced at Jing Chen carefully, "I just received the news that the third assessment will be held on time tomorrow morning." ”

Jing Chen was stunned for a moment, and his eyebrows raised, "So rushed?" After thinking about it, he said, "Have you found out about the beast tide?" ”

Luo Xi shook his head, "They didn't say anything specifically, it seems to be related to a volcano that erupts irregularly on the mountain range, and several teachers in the main exam have explored it, and there will be no danger within five days, and they probably want to take advantage of this time to finish the exam as soon as possible." ”

"So, we're going to do alchemy on a volcano that could erupt at any moment?" Jing Chen's whole person is not good.

But it's not good, it's not good, and the assessment still has to continue.

The next morning, after the dead and wounded and some missing, there were about 180 people left to take part in the assessment.

A beast tide killed most of the candidates, including many elite alchemists of certain forces, which made people sigh that people are not as good as heaven.

Since the third assessment allowed to watch the competition, in addition to the students and the people accompanying the major forces, there were also many idle monks and some natives from the Hidden Earth City, and the large army arrived at the location of the third examination.

"It's so hot in here." Even though he was wearing special clothes to cool down, Jing Chen still felt the sweat on his body gushing out.

"It wasn't that hot the first few times." As an old student who has participated in two assessments, Luo Xi said his experience, "I guess it was the eruption of this volcano that caused trouble." ”

"But it's okay, didn't you notice that the runic beasts around you are extinct?" Luo Xi smiled bitterly, "Even the clearing is saved." ”

Jing Chen, "......"

The place of the third assessment is called Huoxin Mountain, which is the most central and hottest place in the mountain group.

Since the final assessment of each session was held here, a teleportation array was set up at the foot of the mountain within a few steps.

"Thank goodness there's also the teleportation array!" Someone next to me howled, "I've changed my shoes to the third pair!" The words were so miserable and sincere that many people laughed.

Jing Chen looked over and saw that Ha Jin, who was walking with Meng and Jinsu, was changing one of his few pairs of shoes, and couldn't help but be happy.

Before entering the city, several of them changed into cooling clothes, but Hajin still had the form of a frog on the soles of his feet after transforming into a human, and he could not find his unique shoes, so he could only wear them himself.

And how can the homemade shoes withstand this kind of high temperature, and there is the situation in front of them.

"This is clearly discriminating against the Sea Clan!" Ha Jin changed his shoes and said indignantly, "I want to complain!" ”

The other two were not much better, and they didn't care about Ha Jin's intentions.

Jing Chen looked at the trio of the Sea Clan in embarrassment - the land is too dangerous, let's go back to the sea quickly.

Through the Guò teleportation array, a group of people quickly arrived at the home of this assessment from the foot of the mountain.

The inside has been arranged, and in the center is a large circular terrace, on which there are about two hundred alchemy furnaces, uniform style and specifications, and a virtual fire is burning under the furnace top.

In order to ensure the impartiality of the exams, no one is now allowed to enter the terrace and can only stay in the surrounding spectator seats.

The three of them stayed with Jing Chen at the venue where the Danfu Alliance was located.

"It's so cool inside." Hajin exhaled comfortably.

A semi-circular transparent isolation cover was condensed around the site, blocking the heat of Huoxin Mountain, and a considerable number of ice arrays were spread around the terrace, making the isolation cover indescribably cool.

"Why don't you say complain now?" Jing Chen glanced at him slightly.

Ha Jin touched his head, smiled embarrassedly, and turned his head as if he hadn't heard.

The huge assessment venue can accommodate nearly 10,000 people to watch the game, and as batches of people are teleported over, the spectator seats are full, and the noise is boiling.

Immediately afterwards, a group of people who participated in the assessment entered, and the scene gradually quieted down.

The five continents of the Dan Festival are about to begin!

When everyone is in place, and then look at the distribution of personnel on the field, some people have already seen that they are tired, and their hearts are suddenly in their hearts.

But all the potential veterans in the past, or the seeded players who are very promising this year, without exception, sit in the center or in a conspicuous place.

It can even be said that from the current distribution location, it is possible to guess which people will be selected this year.

Jingchen's location is quite inconspicuous, located on the edge of the terrace, and if he goes out a little more, he may be squeezed off the stage.

"Brother, you're here to see it too." Not far away was another Dan furnace location, and after the man sat down, he saw that Jing Chen was of the same age, and couldn't help but chat.

Jing Chen smiled and replied, "You too?" ”

"Hey, hey." The man scratched his head, "My name is Lian Mingming, you can call me Mingming or Xiao Ming, a second-year student at Dongzhi Academy." ”

Taunggyi College? Jing Chen thought back to what Luo Xi had said...... Well, Taunggyi College seems to be from Dongli Chau, and it is also one of the top ten colleges.

"Jing Chen, Nanzezhou Danfu Alliance." Someone reports to their home.

"Nanzeju?" Lian Mingming said to himself, "It seems to be one of the few forces that had the lowest results in the last Nondan Conference." Then thinking that Jing Chen in front of him belonged to this force, he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Ah, I definitely don't mean anything else, it's, in fact, your genius battle table is still good." ”

The genius battle is also good from the bottom, but from the top three to the top five, Jing Chen really didn't see anything to be happy about.

Well, what a real teenager this is. Jing Chen said quite insincerely, "Thank you for the compliment." ”

Lian Mingming made a big red face, and was about to say something to save, and the assessment was about to begin.

After a few short opening remarks from the examiner, the atmosphere of the audience was calm, and then hundreds of light clusters were seen emanating from Feng Peng's special storage ring and flying towards the more than 180 candidates on the stage.

The ball of light was shrouded in talismans, forming a thin film, and the contents inside were the prison fire beads and medicinal herbs handed in in the previous two exams, and they were flying in the direction of each candidate at this moment.

Jing Chen received one, and the film automatically dispersed when he got it, and the things inside were revealed, which were the prison fire beads and medicinal materials that belonged to Jing Chen, and some more came out, thinking that the second assessment was not collected and completed.

Pay attention to the expressions of other people, there is nothing unusual, and it seems that there is no wrong one.

Jing Chen couldn't help but secretly praise in his heart, good means.

The third assessment, that is, the alchemy competition, starts when the bell rings in front of the field, and lasts for the same three days, and can also end early.

Jing Chen looked at the Immortal Fire in his hand, he didn't move for a long time, and when the others started refining the fire, his eyes fell on Lian Mingming, who was closest to him.

There is a groove in the brick floor below the Dan furnace, hexagonal, which is sunken downward, and there is a small hole in the center, which seems to be the place where the gas is discharged.

Lian Mingming put the prisoner fire bead into the hexagonal hole casually, and a fire ignited under the Dan furnace in an instant, the flame intensity was much higher than the ordinary ground fire, and the flame line faintly formed a "Ding" character.

On the terrace, hundreds of such flames were lit, and although the heat was high and low, it was equally dazzling, and the temperature was a little higher all around.

Jing Chen retracted his gaze thoughtfully, sorted the medicinal materials in his hand according to the time of entering the furnace, and then slowly placed the prison fire bead in the hexagonal shape under his Dan furnace.
