Although he was surprised, Xiao Nuo didn't intend to probe the other party's strength. After surviving in the Monster Forest where the rules were extremely strong, Xiao Nuo knew that if he didn't have full confidence, he shouldn't try to probe a creature that was stronger than him. This would easily anger the other party and bring him unnecessary trouble.
The scorching sun seemed to move parallel to the crowd, testing everyone's patience. This hot season was supposed to be like this, but many of the weaker Magicians could no longer withstand it. All kinds of magic shields began to light up in the crowd in an attempt to block the vicious light beams. Xiao Nuo had been carefully sensing everything around him since he entered Jingbei City. It was an essential process to first understand the local environment and culture no matter where he went.
What made Xiao Nuo feel strange was that the energy source here was very huge, but it gave people the illusion that it could not be easily obtained. Whether it was a fighter or a mage, extracting energy from the natural world for their own use was a compulsory course. But what if the energy elements here could not be controlled and obtained by others?
As expected, Xiao Nuo's intuition was right. Soon, the sound of destruction rang out in the crowd, accompanied by strange and surprised voices. At this time, the difference in regional culture would immediately establish different groups. It was obvious that many local residents who walked out of their homes were looking at the ignorant people around them like they were idiots.
"North Capital has an eternal martial law! This was to honor and commemorate the first Battle God. Therefore, for those from foreign countries who don't know about this rule, please tell each other. Actually, the guide only mentioned the strong rule, but he didn't mention the "Devouring Rock" underground in the center of the main city. The Devouring Rock, which had the most mysterious value in the continent, could be said to be the nemesis of all mages and fighters. If it wasn't for the fact that they had to gather a large number of them to be effective, it would be the end of the continent's martial artists. To be able to gather so many Devouring Rocks that could affect places so far away from the main city, one could imagine what kind of magnitude it was. It was also because of this that more than 90% of the physical skills personnel in the emerging combat community stayed in Jingbei City. This was because they were able to display their value in a place where battle energy and magic power were scarce.
Although the gradually formed team had begun to move forward in an orderly manner, it still took them nearly an hour to reach a large drill ground surrounded by mountains in the back of the city.
" We will now go to the service desk to pay the registration fee and collect the registration form. In the afternoon, we will check the big page in the distribution center. If the name and other information are correct, we will conduct the assessment tomorrow. I wish everyone a successful pass." After saying that, the guides left the passage behind the drill ground and disappeared into the vast mountains. Only a few staff members were left to distribute the registration forms and guide them in filling in the items.
"Wow, they just left us here? Why didn't he take the gold coins? "Where are we going to sleep tonight?" Only a group of complaining freshmen was left.
Perhaps this was the tradition. Many people who seemed to understand the situation had already filled out the forms and found high ground to set up tents and start cooking. Looking around, there were at least 100,000 people in the entire drill ground. Even if many rich kids brought their own escorts, there were at least 40,000 to 50,000 people who signed up. This scene made Xiao Nuo dizzy. After all, this was the first time Xiao Nuo had seen so many strangers.
After paying the registration fee of 10 gold coins, Xiao Nuo received the registration form and filled in the details of the subject, age, weight, special skills and so on. There were actually more than 20 subjects, and each person could only fill in two subjects at most. Xiao Nuo chose physical skills and biology. When the applicants saw that Xiao Nuo chose biology and science, they were also surprised. After all, this subject was very unpopular. Almost every year, it was difficult for the number of people who applied for this subject to reach double digits.
Xiao Nuo, who had finally understood and filled in the subject after nearly an hour of weaving through the sweaty crowd, left the crowd. Just as he was thinking about whether he should find a place to rest and find something to eat, a few people who had gathered together next to him aroused Xiao Nuo's interest.
"I've just asked the academy's staff. They don't restrict entry and exit, and it's said that there are many edible fungi and magical beasts in the back mountain.”
To be more precise, the content of their conversation had aroused Xiao Nuo's interest. However, after carefully observing the pitying gazes of those people who were sitting on the ground and fully prepared as they looked at the crowd that was walking towards the deep forest, Xiao Nuo understood the crux of the problem. It turned out that the day of rest given by the academy was the beginning of the primary assessment. Moreover, there was a 100% chance that there were things in the mountains that could eliminate many people.
Without thinking, Xiao Nuo jumped up from the ground and rushed into the deep forest. Since he had figured out the purpose of the school, how could he not test the school's assessment standards for the ten gold coins he had paid?
Xiao Nuo, who had just entered the forest, felt a few people locking onto him. Their auras weren't very strong and they didn't take any further action. Hence, Xiao Nuo continued to move deeper as fast as lightning.
"If you don't want to make a move, don't pull me along. You're waiting here in the middle of the night just for that point. A good big fat piece of meat is flying away just like that."
"Idiot! Although the speed of that person just now was ordinary, if you paid attention to his fluency, he definitely wouldn't be so clumsy. He must have been plated with gold by his family! " It's not worth it to waste time on such a troublesome person. Let's wait for the soft goods," a young man with a crew cut whispered to him after hearing the man's complaint.
As Xiao Nuo continued to move forward, he met many gazes that were paying attention to him. However, as before, he did not make any movements, causing him to feel a little nervous. The reason for supporting Xiao Nuo to continue moving forward was not only because he wanted to understand the academy's assessment standards, but more importantly, he had not felt any killing intent so far. Compared to his life in the Monster Forest, Xiao Nuo indeed had nothing to worry about.
Gradually, Xiao Nuo removed his aura and moved forward quietly, causing the few people who had locked onto him to lose their target. Because Xiao Nuo noticed that there was actually a larger venue in front of him, and there were a few simple and majestic buildings standing around the venue. Of course, with Xiao Nuo's current condition, he couldn't feel this. He could only feel the massive amount of aura and the temperature of the bonfires.
"Hmm? This year's junior is not bad. He actually made it here. Hehehehe…"
Suddenly, there was a burst of laughter in front of him. Xiao Nuo knew that the Snow Fox that had just run over had been discovered by the other party, so he also understood. He heard from the other party that his junior brother had proved that this was also the territory of the academy. Since that was the case, he might as well go and investigate.
He turned around and slapped the Snow Fox's head hard. The little fellow looked very depressed. There was no fighting aura at all. He did not even feel a trace of killing intent. Why did he have to hide?
Looking at the man and beast walking out from the depths of the forest, the girl opposite her frowned. It was a kind of blame for her own misjudgment. Although only she had heard the slight sound of movement just now, she did not expect that the person she thought had completely touched the other party's position... was actually a low-level demon beast, and its owner was only discovered by him when he took the initiative to walk out.
"Yo! Didn't junior meet any boring people? Seeing that you're so free, why don't you sit down and eat together?”The tall girl, who immediately regained her lazy appearance, said to Xiao Nuo.
"Good!" To everyone's surprise, Xiao Nuo casually sat down beside this tall, beautiful woman with waist-length hair and grabbed the roasted meat on the rack to eat. He didn't treat himself as an outsider at all. What was even more ridiculous was that the snow-white little guy next to him was even faster than him. If this ability to compete with food was converted into combat strength, it would at least be at the quasi-battle god level.
"Hey! Kid, you haven't fought yet, right? Why don't you spar with me?" Xiao Nuo knew that he was just being polite. The other party definitely had another motive, but he didn't expect them to act so quickly. They had only eaten five pieces of meat.
" What a pity, what a pity…" Xiao Nuo, who was muttering, stood up calmly.
