Chapter 84: Dongning Province has no martial ethics.

Inside the Great Xia Country National Examination live broadcast room, there was a dead silence that lasted for several seconds.

The two golden-medal hosts, at this moment, had their mouths agape, having forgotten what they were supposed to say next.

On the screen, five beams of white light, representing elimination, were still slowly dissipating.

The scorched earth, leveled to the ground, silently recounted everything that had just happened.

It was the female host, Lin Xi, who subconsciously murmured,

“Such... such a terrifying skill range.”

She paused, then added,

“And damage.”

The male host, Wei Zheng, suddenly snapped back to his senses. He cleared his throat, attempting to cover his gaffe with a professional tone.

“Indeed, it was an extremely shocking scene.”

“It looks like Dongning Province has been holding back a big move this year!”

He looked back at the screen, his gaze fixed on the tall, upright mage wearing the star moon magic robe.

“Their team actually has such a powerful examinee!”

“He alone wiped out the entire Jinchuan Province team!”

The astonishment in his tone could no longer be hidden.

“You know, this year’s Jinchuan Province team, all five members were A-Class Profession holders!”

“But in front of this Dongning Province examinee, they couldn’t even last a single round!”

“I suspect this examinee is very likely an extremely rare S-Class Hidden Profession holder!”

Lin Xi blinked, proposing a bold conjecture.

“Brother Wei, you said... is it possible that he is an SS-Class Profession holder?”

“I’ve never seen any S-Class Profession holder achieve such an exaggerated performance.”

Wei Zheng heard this and shook his head with a wry smile.

“Little Lin, you really know how to joke.”

“If he were an SS-Class Profession holder, then this year’s National Examination, I don’t think there’d be any need to continue.”

“Just directly hand him the top scholar trophy.”

At the same time, in the official live broadcast rooms of various major streaming platforms,

The originally sparse bullet comments suddenly exploded like a geyser!

【Holy crap! Holy crap! What did I just see? Meteorite carpet bombing?】

【This is a freshman? You’re telling me this is a freshman?!】

【Who is that little white-robed brother! He’s too handsome! Mom, I’m in love!】

【The lovesick person upstairs, get out! The focus is on strength, okay! This is definitely S-Class! And the most top-tier kind of S-Class!】

【S-Class? Heh heh, you underestimate him too much, I bet five cents, this is definitely SS-Class!】

【Bullshit! Do you think SS-Class is like cabbage? Just appears whenever? I think Dongning Province cheated!】

【Whether he’s SS-Class or not, Dongning Province is probably going to be an astonishing dark horse this year!】

Tianyu Guild, President’s Office.

Sun Tian was leaning back in his spacious boss chair, also following this year’s National Examination.

When he saw that familiar figure on the screen, he was slightly taken aback.

Isn’t this the white-robed mage who performed astonishingly during the beast tide battle?

His name seemed to be Gandalf?

This guy, he’s actually an examinee this year?

He recalled that a few days ago, he had sent Peng Cang and Hei Ming to invite this mage to visit the Tianyu Guild.

But the other party said he was busy recently and it was inconvenient to come to the Guild.

He had thought it was just a polite excuse for refusal.

Unexpectedly, he really was busy.

And it was for something as important as representing Dongning Province in the National Examination.

When he saw Gandalf wipe out the Jinchuan Province team with a flick of his hand, a wry smile appeared on Sun Tian’s face.

He had originally intended to win him over.

Now it seems, that idea can be completely dismissed.

With the strength Gandalf displayed, winning this year’s National Examination top scholar would be effortless.

By then, he would undoubtedly receive high attention from the military’s top brass, nurtured as a pillar of the country.

Such an existence was no longer something his small Tianyu Guild could accommodate.

Jiangning City, National Examination General Command.

Li Gang looked at the five white beams of light soaring into the sky in the live broadcast, grinned, and showed a satisfied smile.

“Yes! Yes, yes, yes! Just like this!”

“Hahahaha! Our Dongning Province this year, we finally get to hold our heads high!”

As he was celebrating, his phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated frantically.

Calls came one after another, ceaselessly.

“Hello? Old Zhang, what’s up?”

“Gandalf? Oh, an examinee from our province, what about him?”

“What rating? S-Class.”

“Why would I lie to you? We’re old comrades, don’t you trust me?”

Li Gang cheerfully hung up the phone, and before he could catch his breath, another call came in.

He continued to use the same spiel, placating one anxious old friend after another.

His mood was exceptionally pleasant.

Triple Island, in the jungle.

Yuan Kai, Shen Fuhai, and Ye Xi were still in immense shock, unable to recover for a long time.

They just numbly followed behind Gandalf, unable to even speak.

Zhou Huai stopped, turned around, and looked at the three.

“Go find the stones.”

“Break this trap formation, and we’ll go find the next target.”

Upon hearing this, the three suddenly woke up as if from a dream, and immediately began to act in a flurry.

Zhou Huai had already thought it through.

Instead of painstakingly grinding monsters for points, it was better to directly eliminate all the teams.

This was more efficient.

If they were fast, five or six hours should be enough to secure the top scholar position in advance.

Just in time, while the other teams were still circling in their respective trap formations, not running around.

He could completely use the map from the live broadcast to find them one by one.

Soon, Shen Fuhai found the core of this trap formation.

As the stone was crushed, the surrounding scenery changed again.

Zhou Huai didn’t hesitate, immediately leading the three towards the next target.

Just like that, under the gaze of tens of millions of viewers in the live broadcast room,

An unbelievable scene unfolded.

The Dongning Province team, as if strolling in their own backyard, accurately found one team after another that was still trapped in place.

They didn’t even need to communicate.

The mage in the star moon magic robe was always the first to spot the opponent.

Then, it was an incredibly smooth combo.

Forbidden Spell: Gravitational Field!

Forbidden Spell - Meteor Shower!

One combo to take them out, clean and decisive.

In less than an hour,

A total of ten provincial teams had been sent back home by him in the same manner.

In the live broadcast room.

Host Wei Zheng’s mouth had not closed.

He exclaimed,

“My goodness! The performance of the Dongning Province team this year is too unexpected!”

“It can no longer be described as a dark horse.”

His voice was dry, his eyes dazed.

“This is clearly a wicked Dragon that crawled out of the abyss!”

Lin Xi also covered her mouth, her face full of disbelief.

“He... he wouldn’t be trying to eliminate all the remaining teams, would he?”

“If he actually achieves that, it will be an unprecedented and unparalleled feat in the history of the National Examination!”

The bullet comments in the live broadcast room had completely exploded.

【Holy crap! Another team wiped out! Which team is this now?!】

【Cheating! Absolutely cheating! Dongning Province sent in at least a level fifty Profession holder!】

【Report! Must be thoroughly investigated! This is completely unfair!】

【Those upstairs who can’t take losing, don’t complain! Our Dongning Province won fair and square, what’s wrong with that?】

【Little brother is too handsome! Decisive in killing! Love him, love him!】

【Glorious is my «N.o.v.e.l.i.g.h.t» Great Dongning! This year’s top scholar, we’ve reserved it!】

Jiangning City, Command Center.

Li Gang’s phone continued to ring non-stop.

However, the tone on the other end of the phone had changed from initial inquiries to furious curses.

“Li Gang! What the hell do you mean?!”

“Our Anyang Province team was wiped out by your people less than half an hour after the National Examination started!”

“What kind of monster did you let in?!”

“You Dongning Province, you have no martial ethics!”
