Chapter 148: The First Assessment Begins!

“Whether 1 live or die, it’s none of your business! Just be careful!” The Sword Emperor glared at Mo Xiao fiercely, then seemed to sense something and instantly retreated into Mo Xiao’s body. “Damn it! That little girl from that day is here. I’ll take my leave. Good luck!”

Before Mo Xiao could react, the Sword Emperor fell silent.

Seeing this, Mo Xiao frowned slightly.

Puzzled, he raised his head and looked around, but he did not see Su Jin’er.

“Never mind, let’s enter the assessment room first.”

Mo Xiao muttered casually and walked into the square following the crowd.

At this moment, in a viewing platform to the north of the square, Su Jiner sat obediently beside Yao Shier, her lively eyes searching for Mo Xiao in the crowd. “Stop looking. There are so many people. You won’t be able to find Mo Xiao.” Yan Zhantian crossed his legs and said.

“It’s none of your business! Who told you that I’m looking for him! I’m just looking around!” Su Jin’er retorted unhappily.

Yan Zhantian shrugged. “Suit yourself.”

“Alright, Jiner, sit tight. The assessment is about to begin, and you’ll be able to lock onto your target later,” Yao Shier said with a smile.

“Okay.” Su Jiner reluctantly withdrew her gaze and stopped fidgeting.

“Where’s Chu Feng? Hasn’t that guy returned yet?” Yan Zhantian casually looked outside and asked when he didn’t see Chu Feng.

“He should be back soon. The candidates have already begun to enter the venue. He’s probably already made arrangements,” Yao Shi’er said as the door not far away suddenly opened. Only then did Chu Feng arrive.

Seeing that the three of them had arrived, Chu Feng said, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry.

I was arranging the personnel responsible for the assessment. I’m here now.” “It doesn’t matter, but Chu Feng, can you tell us what the content of today’s assessment is?” Yan Zhantian waved his hand and got straight to the point.

“I hope you can be patient and wait a bit. You’ll find out once the assessment begins,” Chufeng smiled and didn’t reveal the assessment content immediately.

When the three of them heard this, they looked at each other and did not say anything. They quietly waited for the assessment to begin.

At the same time, Mo Xiao slowly walked into the small room for the assessment.

A man in uniform was standing in the room.

When the man saw Mo Xiao enter the room, he said, “Candidate No. 124, hello.

I’m your proctor.”

“Proctor? One for each person?” Seeing this person, Mo Xiao was also a little surprised. How many proctors had been arranged for Yanlong Base City this time!

“Yes,” the proctor nodded. “You can call me ‘teacher.’”

“Alright, teacher. What do I need to do now?” Mo Xiao looked at the small room, which had almost nothing in it except for the proctor, with some confusion.

Upon hearing this, the teacher raised his right hand, and Mo Xiao suddenly noticed a small blue magic circle under his feet.

“This is… a teleportation array?” Mo Xiao looked at the array and was stunned. He looked at the proctor in front of him in confusion. It seemed that the examination venue was not at this place.

The proctor nodded slightly. “Yes, the test venue is not here. After the test officially begins, I will teleport you to the real test venue.”

“…” Hearing this, Mo Xiao frowned.

He suddenly remembered what the Sword Emperor had said about danger.

Because Mo Xiao now had a very bad feeling in his heart.

Seeing Mo Xiao’s expression, the proctor smiled and reassured him, “Don’t worry. Although the assessment is not here, it’s safe. You have nothing to fear; it won’t harm you.”

“I hope so.” Mo Xiao nodded. “Then what’s the content of the assessment?”

The proctor glanced at Mo Xiao and said, “You’ll find out the specific content after you’ve been teleported. I can’t tell you right now.”

Mo Xiao’s brow furrowed again upon hearing this, and he didn’t say anything more. He closed his eyes and stood quietly, waiting for the assessment to begin.

About 10 minutes later, the invigilator suddenly took a step back and said, “Candidate No. 124, Mo Xiao, please enter the teleportation array. The exam is about to begin!”

Hearing this, Mo Xiao slowly opened his eyes and strode into the teleportation array.

[The teleportation array is about to activate! 5, 4, 3, 2,1! Activate!]

As the system notification sounded, the teleportation array under Mo Xiao’s feet instantly erupted with a dazzling blue light.

Immediately, Mo Xiao disappeared, along with all the examinees in the square.

As the blue light disappeared, Mo Xiao slowly opened his eyes. In front of him was an incredibly lush primitive forest.

“Primitive forest?” Seeing this forest that even sunlight could not penetrate, Mo Xiao instantly frowned.

At this moment, a system prompt suddenly sounded in Mo Xiao’s ear.

[Welcome to Assessment Zone 1, the Death Forest!]

[You must survive here and make your way to the center of the forest. To prevent candidates from lingering, a poisonous gas will be released along the perimeter every ten minutes, deducting your life percentage! ]

[Only 10 candidates will be left in this assessment. Give it your all to survive!]

[The assessment begins! Defeat your opponents and survive! ]

As the mechanical voice sounded, a huge countdown appeared in Mo Xiao’s field of vision.

“Survival? Poison zone? Defeat opponents? Like a battle royale?” Mo Xiao was somewhat bewildered by the system’s instructions.

These rules sounded very much like a certain battle royale video game from his previous life, except this assessment allowed only 10 survivors.

While these rules might sound simple, they were still quite challenging for ordinary people because it essentially meant fighting against everyone else.

However, for Mo Xiao, it was a straightforward task. After all, no one from the Yicheng Base City was his match.

Mo Xiao’s expression remained unchanged as he looked at the dark primeval forest. He took large strides and walked deeper into the forest.

Meanwhile, outside, Chu Feng was rapidly typing on the chat interface.

“How are the arrangements going?”

“Don’t worry, City Lord. We’ve increased the density and strength of the forest’s creatures in the Death Forest. We also have 10 Level 2 professionals acting as hidden obstacles. We’ve also lowered the number of candidates who can pass.”

“Good, keep up the good work. Once I find the person the War Gods are interested in, I’ll let you know. Try your best to eliminate him in this round. Understood?”

“Yes! Understood!”

Just as Chu Feng was chatting, Yan Zhantian’s voice suddenly sounded, “Little Chu, the exam has begun. Can you explain the rules to us?”

“Okay, here we go!”
