Chapter 174 Fourth Assessmen (1/2)
When Lin Huang returned from the third a.s.sessment after resting for two days, his combat level had already upgraded to silver-level rank-3.
In those two days, he brought Tyrant along to kill silver-level monsters. His Life Power constantly increased, having nine of Life Power columns in all four duplicate Life Wheels overflow. However, he had only acc.u.mulated 200 columns in the ninth column of his actual Life Wheel. Lin Huang intentionally left it at this amount of Life Power, so that he would not accidentally get a Life Light Baptism from killing gold-level monsters.
The upgrade in Lin Huang's combat level resulted in the ability to summon four monsters. The Epic level cards - Bai, Tyrant, Charcoal and the clown had been automatically upgraded to gold-level rank-3 as well.
Although the Demonic Dandelion Vine was an Epic level card, its combat level still remained at silver-level rank-3. The reason why it was not upgraded was probably because it had undergone mutation in a different way in the past. Lin Huang would attempt to train the Demonic Dandelion Vine after he had completed the a.s.sessment. Parasites that had gone through two mutations were rare and useful.
For the One-Eyed Swordfiend, Lin Huang did not upgrade him after he was attacked by Xia Yu. Lin Huang was focused on killing monsters to increase the Life Power in his body and had completely forgotten about it.
Lin Huang saw hundreds of colorful tents as soon as he returned to the third a.s.sessment location. The tents were probably set up by the candidates.
A few of the staff were startled when they saw Lin Huang. Since they were also Silver Hunters, they could sense that Lin Huang had upgraded to silver-level.
”You've leveled up?” A man wearing a uniform asked. He was the staff that explained the details to Lin Huang two days ago.
Lin Huang smiled and nodded his head, ”The Life Seed that I'm looking for is at the Little Devil Island. That's why I asked you about it that day.”
”Congratulations! At silver-level, it's quite easy to pa.s.s the a.s.sessment.” The man in uniform congratulated him.
”Thank you.” Lin Huang smiled. He then asked, ”The third a.s.sessment had not ended yet?”
”There are still few of them in the monster cages. I guess that the result will be released after half an hour.”
”How many of them had pa.s.sed the third a.s.sessment?” Lin Huang asked again.
”There are currently 481 of them.” The staff told him as it was not a secret.
”There are more than 5000 candidates who joined the third a.s.sessment. Only about 480 of them pa.s.sed. The pa.s.sing rate is low as there were less than one-tenth of them that pa.s.sed the a.s.sessment.” Lin Huang sighed, shaking his head.
However, the third a.s.sessment was indeed tougher. The first two rounds did not actually evaluate the candidate's' abilities. In the third a.s.sessment, candidates had to possess actual abilities in order to pa.s.s the a.s.sessment. Although it was not a must, it would still be difficult for the bronze-level hunters to pa.s.s the a.s.sessment as the monsters in the monster cage were all silver-level rank-3.
Soon after Lin Huang had returned, people began coming out from the monster cage. Half an hour pa.s.sed and eight partic.i.p.ants came out from the corridors.
One of the staffs immediately received instruction and announced the results of the a.s.sessment.
”5541 candidates partic.i.p.ated in the third a.s.sessment and 489 of them pa.s.sed. I'll now announce the official end of the third a.s.sessment!”
”The head examiner of the fourth a.s.sessment is on her way, you can keep your tents first. Please clean up the rubbish so it won't cause pollution…”
After listening to the reminder from the staff, they immediately kept their tent and cleaned the rubbish on the floor.
Lin Huang was surprised to see that the people in this world had environmental awareness?!
At about nine o'clock in the morning, the head examiner finally arrived at the examination site, riding on a Four-Winged Dragon Condor.
Looking at the unusually good-looking Four-Winged Dragon Condor, many of the candidates were envious of him.
The Four-Winged Dragon Condor was not considered to be a sky dragon. It was only considered to be a gold-level mutated monster with a low density of dragonkin blood. If the monster was upgraded to transcendent and went through two rounds of mutation, it was possible that it could evolve and become a sky dragon. However, to many of the partic.i.p.ants that were not even an Imperial Censor, they felt envious of the head examiner that had this monster to ride on.
Lin Huang smiled. If his Alexandrian Eagle was upgraded to gold-level, it would be as good-looking as the Four-Winged Dragon Condor.
As soon as the Four-Winged Dragon Condor landed safely on the ground, the head examiner then got off the dragon condor and quickly recalled it. She did not use a monster taming token. Obviously, she was also an Imperial Censor.
The head examiner was a woman who looked tough and was dressed in a blue suit. Her hair was cut just below ear level. Although she tried her best to look mature, one could still see that she was only 20 or even less. However, she was tall and clocked in at a height of about 1.8 meters when she was on her heels.
