82 Start of the year end examination (2/2)
At once, shouting noises, sounds of moonblades flying, and the sounds of punches and kicks as well as the discussions of the Gu Masters below the stages fused into a loud banter.
”This year’s physical fighting skills is high.” Soon, Yao Hong saw the difference.
”Hehehe, all thanks to Fang Yuan.” Gu Yue Qing Shu laughed.
”What do you mean?” Yao Hong did not understand.
Qing Shu explained to her.
Yao Hong exclaimed in shock after listening, ”Fang Yuan this lad, he’s really daring, almost to the point of fearless. Hehehe, bullying even his own brother. This is interesting.”
She looked towards Fang Yuan and Fang Zheng from the crowd, thinking internally — Which is the elder brother and which is the younger one.
”Next, Gu Yue Jin Zhu against Gu Yue Mo Bei.” On the arena, the hosting Gu Master shouted.
Gu Yue Mo Bei leapt upwards, and Jin Zhu walked up the stage with a serious expression.
The two paid respects to each other and said no more, fighting at once. Moonblades danced in the air.
The two continued to shoot and at the same time, moving and evading nonstop.
Although a girl, Jin Zhu had good basic skills and was able to fight equally with Mo Bei for a while. But as time passed, her stamina could not keep up, and she started to be suppressed.
Finally, with her body full of sweat and having no energy left, she surrendered.
Mo Bei on the other hand was not even fazed.
”Increasing endurance Gu huh, probably the Yellow Camel Longhorn Beetle Gu....” Below the stage, Fang Yuan observed, quickly seeing through Mo Bei.
Fang Yuan had six Gu worms, but that was an exception. Among the people of his age, they all had one or two Gu worms.
Not only because of the financial stress of feeding Gu worms, but also because the Gu worm’s usage needed constant practice to accumulate experience.
Greed for more would backfire. The students only started interacting with Gu worms, and just began on their cultivation journey. Two Gu worms were enough for them to practice.
Only an exception like Fang Yuan with his rich experience from his previous life, could easily grasp every Gu worm that comes into possession and use them to the very best he can.
The exam continued.
”Damn, jumping like a rabbit!” On another stage, a youngster angrily shouted, ”Gu Yue Chi Cheng, you’re not a man, do you dare to fight with me physically?!”
”Tsk, only a fool would fight close range with you.” On the stage, Gu Yue Chi Cheng laughed in disdain. He used the Scarlet Pill Cricket Gu and jumped around, his body being very agile.
His opponent only had a Flower Boar Gu. Even if he could temporarily raise his strength by one boar, it was useless. Chi Cheng would not go hand to hand with him.
Finally, he got hit by a moonblade from Chi Cheng and lost too much blood, retiring from the fight.
The healing Gu Masters below the stage quickly rushed up and treated his injuries.
As time passed, more and more students were mercilessly eliminated, and many youngsters also started to show their abilities.
Chi Cheng, Mo Bei, Fang Yuan, Fang Zheng…...
Until noon.
The D grade talents were all eliminated. They had limited talent and all chose support-type Gu worms for production line or transport, which suited their lives. Thus, they had little help in battles.
”Little junior sister, your vital Gu is a Life Breath Grass right, my group needs a healer Gu Master.”
”Senior, I wish to join your group, my vital Gu is a Moonlight Gu.”
”Sorry, we are not lacking any attack-type Gu Master.”
...
The small groups quickly recruited newbies, and the students also chose the groups they wanted.
The fights on the stage did not have much visual appeal, and after a few rounds, there were not many highlights, it was even boring. This was because most people chose the Moonlight Gu, and to most people, the fight would start with shooting moonblades. Whoever expended their primeval essence first would lose.
If both parties had no more primeval essence, they would fight with punches and kicks. At the end, one will fall.
Be it students, Gu Masters, or clan elders, they got bored watching and some were about to fall asleep.
Until evening, there were only less than ten students left on the stage.
”Finally ending.” Some Gu Masters lifted their spirits, shrugging off the sleepiness.
At this moment, the Gu Master shouted, ”Next round, Gu Yue Fang Zheng vs Gu Yue Mo Bei!”
