Chapter 134 - Assembly of Five Major Universities (2/2)
Definitely not.
“Assemble, fall in!”
The teachers gave their instructions while students got into their formations. As soon as the students were lined up accordingly, every university from the east, west, south, and north could see the large number of students from Chengyang University.
There were two thousand of them.
Chengyang University had outnumbered the others by six hundred students even with all four other universities combined!
“Next, I will be announcing the rules!”
An elder took the lead with a deep and thick voice.
Qin Feng was able to sense that the elder was an E9-tier ancient warrior and was getting close to D-tier.
“Rifts in the Spring Hunting Ground are stable and safe, and you may gather any loot and treasures that are filled with spirit aura, and those that you are able to gather would be yours!”
The crowd was delighted by the news and their eyes were wide opened in excitement.
“Of course, there will be ultra beasts that have strong capabilities, and I do not need you to defeat them. The most important thing to do is to avoid them and survive!”
The students instantly became gloomy, while the faces of the students from Chengbei University were pale as they were still terrified by their wild boar encounter.
Any ultra beast would be harmful by nature and they would threaten the lives of those that had yet to obtain G-tier.
“However, your capabilities have definitely increased from past training, and so, there will be a challenge for everyone, and it is known as the Spring Hunting Ground Survival Challenge!”
“Every student will have to remain in the hunting ground for three days and strip off name tags from the others, every name tag obtained will be recorded as one point, while those that had their name tags stripped off will be automatically disqualified by the space expulsion of the Spring Hunting Ground!”
“Now, distribute the name tags, remove your communicators, seal off the space rune equipment!”
The teachers carried out the task as soon as the instructions were given.
“Qin Feng, this is your name tag, remember, pay extra attention to those from Chengyang University!” Cheng Chao said.
“Teacher, don’t worry!” Qin Feng nodded and took his name tag.
It was about the size of a palm and had a purple base that was encircled with a golden ring, and it was labelled with the number 21.
Zhao Yu had a similar one that was labelled number 1.
Zhou Hao and Zhang Tianche received their purple-color-base name tag that was encircled with a silver ring.
When looked carefully, there were also others that had black rings that indicated gunners.
Every university was differentiated by the color of the name tags, while the ring would differentiate aptitude users, and numbers would represent rankings.
Furthermore, the name tag was also a spatial passage device in itself, and this essential tool for the Spring Hunting Ground was rarely available.
“Communication would be impossible without the communicator, hence, it would also be difficult to detect if anyone were to cheat!” Zhao Yu felt anxious about the restrictions.
Zhou Hao was also puzzled with the situation.
“Without the communicator, how would the performance be recorded? Would it just be as simple as stripping off name tags from the others? If that were the case, can we also strip off name tags from students that are from our university?”
“It’s the wilderness, would it still be fair for everyone?” Qin Feng looked at them and replied calmly, “The teachers have already sealed off the rune space of the gunners to restrict usage of certain giant-sized firearms, or else, all of you would be in a much more dire situation!”
Zhou Hao recalled the moment when Qin Feng battled against the gunner and launched three bombs that covered the entire top part of a hill; if these students were there, they would definitely not be able to make it out alive.
“Alright, students, there is no need to discuss the rules, all you need to do is to adapt to it.” Cheng Chao told everyone with an unpleasant expression.
It was unknown how many among these students would not survive through this annual event.
During such a post-apocalyptic time that was filled with uncertainties ahead, the younger generations would have to adapt and grow at a faster rate.
Or else, how would they rise up stronger and protect the colonies?
“Every single one of your backpacks have a bottle of water, a compressed biscuit, a protective helmet and vest, and also a wireless communicator. If you were to face any dangerous situation that is beyond your ability to handle, you can just take off your name tag and you will be automatically excluded from this challenge.”
