Chapter 262: Assessment
Ji Xinghuo saw that Xuanming didn't want to say more, so he didn't ask again.
From him, he can also hand over Aether Crystals and True Dragon Coins as bidding funds. Or give the auction item to Xuanming for appraisal, if the value is high enough, it will be willing to accept the commission and display it on the list of the auction house, of course, there will be a handling fee.
In short, everything is not cheap.
Ji Xinghuo did not have the merit of eternal day, and he didn't fancy the auction items entrusted by others for a while.
Leaving the Treasure Auction House, Ji Xinghuo did not immediately follow Xuanming's guidance and went to the arena of the Eternal Day City to participate in the assessment.
He didn't want to go there rashly until he found out the situation of the Earth Abyss Star.
Walking on the street, Ji Xinghuo wandered aimlessly, scanning the surroundings with electromagnetic induction, and after a while, he finally found the target.
It was a bar at the back of the street, and there were a lot of highlanders in it.
With his current status, he must go to the highlanders to find out the news, and this is a very suitable place.
Ji Xinghuo walked into the bar.
Even during the day, there were dozens of highlanders drinking here, from different tribes, most of them Red Emperor devotees, and he felt the sinister atmosphere as soon as he entered. For other races, this is by no means a good place, but for the followers of the Red Emperor, it is like a fish in water.
Ji Xinghuo was an unfamiliar face, and some highlanders turned their heads to look at him, but they didn't care.
No one would doubt his fierce appearance.
"Drink!"
"If you don't finish this cup, I'll blow your head off!"
The bar was noisy and noisy, mixed with the profligate laughter of the female Highlanders, and a great deal of foul language and swearing.
Ji Xinghuo sat down in front of the bar, ordered a few glasses of strong blood wine, and after his stomach, his face turned slightly red.
Then talk to the highlander next to you.
This highlander is very strong, he is a fourth-order iron warrior, and although he hides the Eternal Day Emblem in his waist, he still can't hide from electromagnetic induction.
Intentionally or unintentionally, Ji Xinghuo brought the topic to the Eternal Day Meritorious Service and the Earth Abyss Star.
Sure enough, the other party is an eternal day guardian who knows the inside story.
But for some reason, this highlander didn't dare to say much about the situation of the Earth Abyss Star, and the information revealed in his words was enough for Ji Xinghuo to confirm that this was not a trap for the Jingying Clan, and that the foreign race could indeed go to the Earth Abyss Star and earn the Eternal Day Merit.
In the bar, Ji Xinghuo contacted several highlanders, and the content they got was much the same.
"Don't dare to say it?"
"Or can't you say it in the City of Eternal Day?"
More than two hours later, Ji Xinghuo walked out of the bar, feeling a little puzzled.
Obviously, for the situation of the Earth Abyss Star, the Jingying Clan issued a gag order, and used some means to make it impossible for people who have been to the Earth Abyss Star to reveal the true information.
Ji Xinghuo looked around, and there were too many secrets hidden in the magnificent and bright City of Eternal Day.
"Then go ahead and try."
"Now that they can return to the astral boundary safely, it can be seen that the Earth Abyss Star is indeed not that dangerous."
Ji Xinghuo made a decision.
He usually doesn't act rashly, but the treasures in the Strange Things Auction House, the few things he can look at, all of them can only be auctioned by eternal merit. The Diamond of Heaven, the cloned twins, and other things are very attractive to themselves.
A moment later.
Ji Xinghuo arrives in the arena of the City of Eternal Day.
The hexagonal arena is more than 300 meters in diameter, about the same as a Super League stadium on the planet, but there are not many people, and most of the spectator seats are empty, only four or five hundred people sit on the sidelines, bored watching the battle on the middle field.
Ji Xinghuo also looked at it for a while.
The battle on the field is the assessment of joining the Eternal Day Guardian. On one side is the legendary powerhouse of the Jingying clan, and several Jingying clans take turns to be examiners. After the battle starts, the timer will pass if you insist on reaching 3 star ticks. Three star ticks are roughly three and a half minutes on Earth.
There are many people who participate in the assessment, but few people can pass.
Ji Xinghuo watched the battle for more than half an hour, and only three people passed, less than one-tenth of the proportion.
"I want to sign up."
He walked to the sidelines and addressed one of the Crystal Clans, pulling out his Eternal Day badge.
The other party took it and took a look, a little surprised, Ji Xinghuo already has the Eternal Day Badge, and he hasn't participated in the assessment yet? But he still registered immediately, nodded and said, "Call your name and play." ”
Ji Xinghuo put away his badge and waited beside him.
Ten minutes later.
"Kai Ye!" The Jingying clan in charge of the registration and assessment shouted, "It's your turn." ”
Ji Xinghuo silently walked into the field.
A figure flew out of the room above the arena, and with a bang, it landed on the ground dozens of meters away in front of it, and the light spread out to reveal its true face.
"Yes."
Ji Xinghuo raised his eyebrows.
The Jingying clan on the opposite side was the guard who brought him into the city yesterday, and his name was Mingyu.
Mingyu explained expressionlessly: "I rotated over as an examiner today, and when I saw that it was you, I just came up to test your strength, not against you." ”
"Oh."
Ji Xinghuo didn't think much about it, took off the Ice Vein Maker's Axe behind his back, and held it in his hand.
But in his heart, he attaches great importance to it.
When I came into contact with Mingyu yesterday, I already knew that this humanoid crystal Ying clan was an aura fighter, and judging from the fluctuations of ether energy, his strength was legendary.
On Earth, Halo fighters are rare.
And in the City of Eternal Day, one out of every five Crystal Clans is a Halo Fighter, and almost all of them are humanoid.
The core ability of the Halo Fighter class is "light energy", which converts all star power into light energy, the nature of this energy is very domineering, with both strength, defense, speed, burst and recovery, comprehensive balance, and powerful power, but also rejects the vast majority of abilities, and can only be fused with skill-based xenomorphs.
Even with the ability skills, the Halo Fighters' combat is still very dependent on martial arts, which allows them to exert more combat power.
Therefore, every Aura fighter is proficient in martial arts.
The strength of the Halo Fighter depends heavily on the strength of the light energy, that is, the strength of the star power.
The higher the order, the higher the demand for light energy.
Therefore, except for a small number of one or two skill-type abilities, most of the remaining opportunities to fuse xenomorphs will choose ether sensitivity, ether affinity, the more the better, and the superimposed effect is just to speed up the cultivation and recovery of star power and transform more light energy.
This class template is very closed, and there are no advanced classes.
Mingyu was bare-handed, with only a layer of delicate armor growing with his body, his expression was still cold, and he said, "I'll start." ”
The Jingying clan on the side of the arena pressed the timer.
Rumble!
When the words fell, five circles of light lit up on the surface of Mingyu's body, and his whole body was radiant, and his speed soared sharply and turned into a light and shadow, directly hitting Ji Xinghuo.
He doesn't have bells and whistles, just punches out.
The light energy in the fist compresses, and then explodes.
Burst Punch!
This is the most common ability technique for Halo Fighters, with explosive power bursting from fists and indestructible light energy.
Ordinary super Inhumans didn't dare to resist this punch at all, and they couldn't even see the attack clearly.
But in Ji Xinghuo's eyes, it was not so terrifying.
He has already started overclocking thinking, and has chosen to triple the acceleration of his nervous reactions, and all the movements in his eyes have slowed down by three times. When Mingyu's blast of air reached him, he closed his eyes and dodged to the left, but only one step away.
The fist grazed the figure in the air, and the light exploded, but it did not cause a blinding effect on Ji Xinghuo.
Rumble!
The air exploded, and the shockwave erupted.
Ji Xinghuo ignored the shock wave hitting his body, still with his eyes closed, and the double-edged battle axe in his hand had already been cut down, forcing Mingyu to avoid it.
Mingyu half-turned around and used his arm to block up.
When.
The blade of the axe slashes into the armor of the arm, sending sparks in all directions, and the Iceveiner's axe has a "heavy blow" that doubles in force and erupts with cold frost.
With this axe, Ji Xinghuo only used eighty percent of his strength.
The light energy on Mingyu's arm flowed, and it flicked off the battle axe, leaving a dent in the armor, but Ji Xinghuo was repelled by the rebounding force, and he staggered back a dozen steps. Mingyu was also slashed backwards two steps, unable to pursue, raised his left hand and spread out his palm at Ji Xinghuo.
A beam of light shot out of the palm of his hand.
Pulsed beams!
In the midst of retreating, Ji Xinghuo raised the Ice Veiner's Axe in time and blocked the bombardment of this pulsed beam with the axe surface.
The beam contained domineering energy, and Ji Xinghuo retreated faster and was almost knocked away.
And Mingyu had already regained his balance, and the light energy exploded again, with a bang, like a cannonball chasing Ji Xinghuo.
In an instant, he rushed in front of him.
"Ho!"
Ji Xinghuo's feet ploughed two furrows in the ground, and finally stood firm, opening his mouth to roar and let out an icy roar when Mingyu's fist hit him before he could hit him.
Countless frosts erupted on the Ice Veiner's Axe, instantly exploding in all directions, hitting Mingyu, who was close at hand.
Bursts of light collide with frost.
Mingyu's whole body froze, this punch failed to complete the whole force after all, the low temperature and frost had little effect on him, but when he broke through the shockwave of the ice roar, Ji Xinghuo had already flashed to his side, and the double-edged battle axe slashed horizontally, aiming at his neck.
This time, Mingyu was too late to resist.
The battle axe slashed hard at the neck, shattering the armor, breaking through the light energy protection, and slashing into the crystal skin under the armor, and the huge force cut out a crack.
"Huh?"
There was a burst of exclamation from the audience.
Mingyu was slashed out, the light and shadow flashed, and he hurriedly opened the distance between him and Ji Xinghuo.
A hundred meters away, Mingyu touched his neck.
The Jingying people are born with a hard body, like a crystal composition, but they are also essentially a creature, with blood flowing in their bodies, and they need to breathe and eat, but their blood is different from that of humans, they do not breathe oxygen, they eat minerals.
Mingyu felt a stream of blue liquid, which was his own blood.
He bled out!
"It's dangerous!" Mingyu was afraid for a while, the Jingying clan would not sweat, and the expression on his face was not rich, but the horror in his eyes was revealed.
If the axe had been more powerful, he would have been decapitated.
Mingyu looked at Ji Xinghuo opposite, "He is only a fourth-order, and he can threaten my life, no wonder Hui Zhu looks at him differently." ”
"Are you still fighting?" Ji Xinghuo raised the battle axe in his hand.
"You've passed the test."
Mingyu glanced at the timer on the sidelines, and didn't even arrive at 1 star moment, although he was a little embarrassed, he still calmly recognized Ji Xinghuo's strength.
After saying that, Mingyu flew up and landed in the room above the arena, looking quite embarrassed.
Ji Xinghuo laughed secretly.
Mingyu's strength is actually very strong, but he is an aura fighter, very dependent on melee combat and martial arts, he has microscopic perception and overclocking thinking, and his strength is strong enough to break through the light energy protection, so it can be said that he is completely restrained by himself.
Of course, if you really fight to the death, it will not be easy to kill Mingyu by yourself.
Ji Xinghuo walked to the sidelines.
The Jingying clan in charge of registration gave a look of approval and said, "Our clan is in need of a powerful Eternal Day Guardian like you, and the next batch will go to the home planet, and your badge will receive a notification message." ”
