Blood is not nectar, but the place where it is poured out is the place of death......

At the entrance of Seth Canyon, the junction of the eastern and western continents, this sentence is engraved on a monument, which is the inscription of the seventh emperor of the Star Austrian Empire two thousand years ago, marking an end to the continental war that lasted for a hundred years.

——

3157 A.D., June 21.

Night—11:25 a.m.

Alliance Academy Virtual Platform - Virtual War Zone 52 - Seth Canyon.

The blizzard slammed into Seth Canyon like a beast, shaking everything here like crazy, the ground was covered with thick ice, and the climate was prohibitively minus 30 degrees.

At the entrance of the canyon, there were people standing, wearing all kinds of soft armor, and their bodies glowed with a faint light, resisting the biting cold here.

"This is the Star Empire Grizzly Academy News Club, I'm Rita, and I'm broadcasting the Seth Canyon test site. ”

"I'm Mi Wan from Tianma Academy, Virtual Area 52 is about to close in 35 minutes, this time among the graduates of the major colleges and universities, will anyone be able to pass the ninth level of difficulty?

......

In the crowd, more than a dozen beautiful women are turning on the light curtain to broadcast the situation to people outside the virtual area 52.

For such a beautiful scenery, the outstanding students of the surrounding major colleges and universities are unseen, and most of the people's eyes are looking at the entrance of the canyon, nervously waiting for something.

The eyes of some people fell on the center of the crowd, where several figures stood.

All around, the crowd instinctively retreated, keeping a distance from the figures, which also made these people the focus of the crowd.

One of them, a blonde man wearing light blue soft armor and a pitch-black revolver, looked at the entrance of Seth Canyon and muttered, "Only Bai Qingwei from Nanluo Academy is still inside, if she also fails, the graduates of this class of our Star Empire will have no hope of passing the ninth level of difficulty." Jing Ying, you have been competing with Bai Qingwei for four years, you should know her very well, do you think there is hope for her?"

Next to her, a beautiful woman in cyan soft armor and a graceful figure shook her head with a smile and said, "Elbert, among this class of graduates, you are the strongest person who deserves to be, and you have only passed the seventh level of difficulty. Bai Qingwei's strength in all aspects is inferior to you, and being able to pass the seventh level of difficulty is the limit. ”

Elbert's face was slightly gloomy, his blue eyes were a little deep, and the pitch-black revolver was spinning in his hand at some point, and the crescent emblem on the handle of the gun was slightly glowing, exuding a slight dangerous aura.

Jing Sakura's pretty face changed slightly, took a small step back, and said with a light smile: "I'm sorry, Elbert." I don't mean to offend, it is a recognized fact that you are indeed the first in the ranking of this class of graduates of the Star Austrian Empire. ”

"Huh...... , am I the strongest in this class......"

The corners of Elbert's mouth twitched, and his face was indifferent, as if he was thinking of something unpleasant.

At the entrance of the canyon, a figure appeared, gliding on the thick ice, and in a blink of an eye, it came closer.

The eyes of many men in the crowd suddenly became hot, and even the cold and arrogant Elbert had an unconcealed appreciation in his blue eyes.

This is a moving woman, the crimson soft armor dances with a faint firelight, like an elf bathed in the firelight, her face contains a smile, looks very friendly, but has a faint sense of alienation.

Such a woman will arouse any man's desire to conquer.

Jing Ying's face changed slightly, she looked at the entrance of Seth Canyon, and did not see any movement, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "Bai Qingwei, what level of difficulty have you passed?"

The crimson soft-armored woman shook her head and sighed, "It took half a night, I tried my best, but I only reached the seventh level of difficulty, and it was difficult to improve." ”

There was a sigh of disappointment from the crowd, the graduates of this class of the Star Olympian Empire were full of geniuses, and they thought that they had the hope of passing the ninth level of difficulty, but they didn't expect that the expectation was so different from reality.

Virtual 52 War Zone Seth Canyon, which is a virtual zone built according to the famous Grand Canyon at the junction of the eastern and western continents, is only open to each graduate of the Continental College of Higher Education, and it is also equivalent to the graduation assessment of the graduates of the entire Continental College.

The ninth level of Seth Canyon is similar to the real-life canyon, and if a graduate can pass it, all graduates in the country will have a resume rating of +1.

It's just that in the past thirty years of the Star Olympic Empire, there has never been such a graduate.

"That's right. ”

Bai Qingwei's expression moved slightly, and she asked, "What about that person?

Hearing this, Elbert, Jing Sakura and the others' faces changed, and then they all shook their heads.

"That person didn't come? This is the final assessment of every graduating class. Bai Qingwei was surprised.

Elbert narrowed his blue eyes and said lightly: "If that person wants to come, the target must be the ninth level of difficulty, he hasn't appeared yet, he should be unsure, so he won't come at all." ”

Izakura and the others nodded their heads in agreement, agreeing with Elbert's judgment.

The crowd was talking, all discussing a name - Ling.

Ling, to be exact, is not a name, but a code name, and is also the most mysterious person in this class of graduates of the Star Olympian Empire.

Four years ago, the first-year geniuses represented by Elbert rose rapidly, and when they were invincible in the war zones of the virtual platform of the Alliance Academy, Ling suddenly appeared, suppressing all the geniuses of the same grade in the Star Ao Empire with great strength.

In the third grade, he defeated the fourth-grade geniuses in a row, and broke the records set by the seniors in a row, shocking the entire Star Olympian Empire.

It's just that this person is too mysterious, and he has always used the code name "Ling", and no one knows which college he is a genius student of a higher school.

In the past year, Ling rarely appeared, which allowed Elbert to catch up and occupy the first position in the ranking of graduates of the Star Olympic Empire.

However, in the minds of the majority of students in the Star Olympian Empire, Ling is the strongest graduate who deserves to be.

"It's a pity......" Bai Qingwei sighed lightly and said regretfully: "The 52nd War Zone will be closed soon, and it's too late for him to come over now." ”

At the entrance to the canyon, the countdown to the monument appeared, and it was only twenty minutes before the closure of Seth Canyon.

Suddenly, Elbert's face changed, and he looked at the crowd, where there was an additional figure at some point.

This is a man wearing a mask, and the soft armor on his body is very old, which is the standard soft armor given by the system when the first-year students of the academy first entered the virtual war zone, and it only has general defensive power.

Some first-graders don't even bother to wear it when they get it, which represents the identity of first-grade rookies.

However, the soft armor that Ling wears has always been like this, and a year ago, when he was in the third year, when he challenged the seventh-ranked genius of the previous graduating class, he did not change to other soft armor.

"Ling......" Elbert murmured.

Bai Qingwei and the others were stunned, and looked along his line of sight, but only saw a vague shadow, crossing the crowd, crossing the ice like a ghost, and disappearing at the entrance of the canyon.

"With only so much time, how could he possibly pass? not enough time even for the first level of difficulty......"

Jing Ying whispered, and suddenly her beautiful eyes widened, as if she had thought of something, "The reason why Ling appears now is because she wants to put the most pressure on herself to challenge the ninth level of difficulty?"

The faces of everyone present changed, and they all thought of this possibility, with the strength that Ling had shown in the past, it was not difficult to challenge the eighth level of difficulty.

However, he didn't show up until now, and it was clear that he wanted to put a lot of pressure on himself, and he wanted to challenge the ninth level of Seth Canyon in the limit of time.

Under the pressure of the limit, to break through the limit, this is something that geniuses are always willing to try......

"Only twenty minutes ......"

The corners of Elbert's eyes twitched slightly, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Ling, let me see, can you set a legendary record in the academy for thirty years......"

Time passed minute by minute -

The crowd stared at the countdown on the monument, although it was unbelievable to pass the ninth level of Seth Canyon in twenty minutes, but the people present still wanted to see if a miracle could happen.

Bite!

When there was still a minute before twelve o'clock, there was a sudden soft sound at the entrance of the canyon, and a light curtain appeared, showing a line of words......

In an instant, the crowd boiled, and they knew that there was only one situation in which a light curtain would appear at the entrance of the canyon, and that was when someone had broken through the ninth level of difficulty in Seth Canyon.

"He really passed the ......," Bai Qingwei muttered with wide eyes.

——

At the same time.

At Nanluo College, the fourth-year dormitory was boiling, and bursts of cheers poured out like a tide.

"Seth Canyon level 9 difficulty, passed!Ling, you are our god!?"

"Did you really pass? Then the resume ratings of this class of graduates of our Star Empire are all +1?"

"Great! Resume rating +1, I can enter the Nanluo Provincial Security Department for a tryout......"

Hundreds of graduates chanted excitedly, chanting the name of "Ling" and feeling lucky to be able to graduate this year.

The rest of the dormitory students are extremely envious, with a graduation resume rating of +1, for many students, their future life path will change because of this, and they are really lucky to be able to graduate in this year.

In the fourth-year dormitory building, in one of the dormitories, a wolf howl sounded.

"Lin Chuan, the ninth level of Seth Canyon difficulty has been broken, and our resume rating is +1!

In this dormitory, a man as strong as a bear is holding a skinny man wearing a virtual sensor helmet, screaming excitedly, reminiscent of some strange images.

"Alright. Lu Xiong, do you want to murder your classmates?"

Struggling out of the man's bear hug, Lin Chuan took off his virtual induction helmet, his slender eyes narrowed slightly, and glared at his roommate and best friend, "I've been watching the game on the virtual platform, won't I know the news?"

"Hey, hey, hey...... , Our graduates are really cool, we are going to party all night tonight! I'm going to find someone, you can come over quickly. Lu Xiong grinned, turned around and rushed out of the room, looking for the students in the surrounding dormitories.

Lin Chuan looked at the dormitory, his thoughts were still a little blank, this was the inevitable situation of suddenly withdrawing from the virtual platform.

"Seth Canyon Level 9 Difficulty...... , graduation resume +1...... For the vast majority of graduates of the Star Olympian Empire, it should be a great event worth celebrating......

Clenching the virtual induction helmet in his hand, Lin Chuan muttered: "But what about me? Four years of glory in the virtual war zone came to an end, and the only reward was a graduation resume rating of +1......"

"By this time tomorrow, I'll actually graduate, and the virtual platform of Alliance Academy will be closed to me. From then on, I really became an ordinary person......"

Sighing softly, Lin Chuan stroked the virtual induction helmet, reluctant.

At this time, Lu Xiong's voice came from outside the door, and Lin Chuan came to his senses and turned off the virtual induction helmet.

"Ding...... , codenamed 'Ling', withdrew from the virtual platform of the Alliance Academy......"
