Chapter 43: The Rules of Trials
These three people are so strong! Su Mo is now in the late stage of the Qi Refining Realm, and his strength is comparable to that of the Foundation Building Realm. Although he did not kneel on the spot like other newcomers, he was also facing great pressure at the moment.
The strength of the late stage of the Qi Refining Realm can already sweep the Quartet in the ordinary martial arts world, which makes Su Mo start to be a little complacent, and even after arriving at the Star Academy, due to the relatively mild environment of the Star Academy, he still feels that everything is under control. There is no sense of crisis.
But now, Su Mo knew that he was wrong, here, the foundation building realm was the most basic initial stage, just like an ordinary asteroid qi refining realm martial artist. If you can't become stronger as soon as possible, you won't have any possibility of controlling your own destiny, and you will become an ant crushed by others at any time!
"The newcomers are getting weaker and weaker now." The long-haired elder sitting in the middle of the three open-air chairs glanced at the newcomers who were kneeling in fear, although the voice was not loud, but every word was deeply imprinted in the depths of everyone's minds, making people tremble unconsciously.
After a pause, the long-haired elder began to announce the rules of the trial.
The rules are simple. Newcomers will be randomly placed on the periphery of the back mountain, and the main trial task is to find herbs, the special basket made by the mountain hall will give points according to the value of the herbs, and the final trial results will be ranked from high to low according to the points, and specific rewards will be given according to the ranking.
However, what surprised all the newcomers in the rules was that this trial was not all the newcomers from the three major academies competing together, but the newcomers of the three academies were evaluated separately, and even their respective trial activity areas had clear boundaries.
"The top three in this trial can all get a Tsukidan as a reward, and the first place can get it at the same time, ten spirit stones as a reward, and the second and third places will get an additional five spirit stones. Four to ten winners will each be rewarded with three spirit stones. Of course, these rewards can only be redeemed if they meet the minimum base score requirements. ”
The top three can get Tsukidan!
The audience was instantly shocked, and Su Mo was also a little shocked, he didn't expect to get Tsukidan here. When I was chatting with Yan Bo before, I had talked about the issue of pills, so Su Mo knew what the Zhuji Pill was used for.
But Xuan Qiming didn't know: "Mo'er, give a pill first?" What can that thing do, might as well give me more stones. ”
Su Mo was a little speechless and didn't know what to say, but seeing this, Cheng Ran next to him hurriedly stepped forward and explained: "The Zhuji Dan is used to assist in breaking through the Zhuji realm, which can increase the probability of breakthrough, and it will not be as painful as a normal breakthrough." ”
Xuan Qiming nodded as if he didn't understand after hearing this, and then continued to look at the three elders.
You must know that these newcomers are now gathered here, and the ultimate goal is to build a successful foundation within a year, and a foundation building pill is very likely to be directly in one step, which makes them not excited!
After hearing such an exaggerated reward, not to mention these grassroots newcomers, even those second-generation cultivators couldn't hold on to it. Unless it is a super young master like Lei Zeming, a Tsukidan is really rare for these newcomers.
After successfully mobilizing the enthusiasm of all the newcomers, the long-haired elder smiled slightly, the original intention of holding the newcomer trial was not only to train the newcomers, but also to let them help collect medicinal herbs to refine a strategic pill like Tsukidan.
After all, all the herbs collected by the newcomers during the trial process must be handed in, and if they are not given a heavy reward and do not let them see the hope of winning, it is very likely that these newcomers will not be able to work hard, which will be contrary to the original intention.
However, newcomers are newcomers after all, and while motivating their morale with heavy rewards, in order to avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble, some ugly things still have to be said in front.
The long-haired elder glanced around all the newcomers lightly, and finally said, "Now you all know the rules, but there are three things that the old man still has to emphasize, lest some of you fools have thoughts that they shouldn't have." ”
"First, you can only move around the outskirts of the mountains, don't try to touch any prohibitions, the old man guarantees that you will die a miserable death."
"Second, you only have three days, and if you don't come back here before noon in three days' time, you'll also die a terrible death."
"Third, trials encourage competition, you can snatch each other, but you must not cause any trouble, if something really happens, the old man will personally take action, let you pay for your life."
Three things, any one of them will cost human life, and the murderous atmosphere is awe-inspiring.
After speaking, the long-haired elder no longer cared about the newcomer who was a little stunned by his murderous intent, and closed his eyes to recuperate, while as for the two elders on the side, they didn't speak from beginning to end.
"Alright, let's all find our mentors and get ready to go." Then the long-haired elder added.
"Yes!" All the newcomers responded in unison, one by one, eager to try.
"Su Mo, you must be careful after entering the mountain range, Xuan Qiming and Han Muchen, you two must also be careful." At this time, Zhong Hong put the special backpack on the three people's backs. While admonishing uneasily.
Su Mo and the others nodded separately, although they had never entered the mountain range, they were at least serious martial artists, so it was still okay to protect themselves.
Looking back at the people surrounding Lei Xuanming, Zhong Hong lowered his voice again and said, "You guys be careful, they may join forces to deal with you." ”
"This ......" Su Mo and the three of them glanced at each other. They all looked embarrassed.
This trial is to randomly teleport newcomers to a location, and it is very difficult to converge! And, if all the time is wasted looking for each other. That's not worth the cost!
After all, three people take one route. In the end, the herbs found must be limited, so the question arises, these herbs can't all be divided equally, right?
If the three are evenly divided, then the final result is likely to be that each of them is not as good as the others, so it is impossible to get the top three at all, and finally pass by Tsukidan. And if the three are not evenly divided, then who will give more and who will give less? This makes the problem even bigger!
On the other hand, if the three of them go separately, although there is a little more risk, but the reward is also great, in the end, everyone's points will definitely be much better than acting together, at least there is hope to compete for the top three, you must know that the reward for the top three is Tsukidan, how can they easily give up this opportunity!
What's more, the long-haired elder had clearly warned that he could not kill people before, as long as he was careful, at least there was no fear of his life, and the risk was not particularly large, so in this way, it was obviously safer for the three of them to go separately.
Xuan Qiming and Han Muchen both said at the same time: "The mentor is right, let's find a way to act together, it doesn't matter what the points are, it's a big deal to give Su Mo in the end." ”
Su Mo smiled bitterly and shook his head, the intentions of these two people made Su Mo very moved, but it would not be good if Xuan Qiming and Han Muchen couldn't get points in the end because of this.
"I understand the kindness of the two of you, but there is no need for this, this opportunity is rare, and the reward that should be fought for must not be let go easily, otherwise you will regret it for a lifetime." Su Mo Zhengse persuaded.
