“Who is this little fatty?”

In the central area of Bloodthirsty Camp stood a grand and solemn hall, and there were twenty huge Spiritual Projector screens floating.

Each screen reflected the situation in an assessment battlefield.

The graceful slender Young Man seemed to notice something. She pointed to one of the screens and asked in surprise.

Next to her, Shu Sanqi sat in silence, and his thin face was as cold as a rock. He fixed his eyes on several of the screens; he turned his head and glanced at that screen when he heard the question. He answered, “Besides the descendants of Ye’s Family in East Sea, who else can use the two secret methods of Soul-embroidering Sabreplay and See-through Pupils?”

Ye’s Family!

Also known as the “Ye’s Family in the East Sea”, it was an ancient family with a history of thousands of years, boasting great power in the whole provinces of the East Sea.

Nowadays, the head of Ye’s Family, Ye Zhankong, was even nicknamed “King of the East Sea”.

“The descendant of the Ye’s Family...”

Young Man was deep in thought, “No wonder Lin Xun's hiding place can be found. It turns out that the little fatty resorted to ‘See-through Pupils’”.

“His name is Ye Qi. He's a good seeded player.” Shu Sanqi seemed to think of something and added, “In Ye’s Family, clansmen with See-through Pupils are extremely few, and Ye Qi is one of them.”

“Aha, no matter how capable he is, he ran away at last! He dared not fight with my little handsome boy,” Young Man snorted and felt proud when she mentioned Lin Xun.

Shu Sanqi averted his gaze and looked at the other screens. He said after a while, “Bai Lingshi, Zhao Yin, Zhangsun Heng, Lee Duxing...”

After saying a list of names, he said, “Keep an eye on them. They are the most promising candidates to enter the Gang-producing Lake.”

Young Man squinted her starry eyes.

Bai Lingshi, the eldest grandson of Jinghai Marquis, was endowed with the talent property of Starshine Eternal.

Zhao Yin, the great-great-grandson of Bowang Marquis of the Forbidden City, was endowed with the talent property of Purple Sun.

Zhangsun Heng, the grandson of General Zhangsun Chunqiu of the Imperial Army...

Lee Duxing, descendant of Lee’s Family, one of the nine top noble families in the Forbidden City...

...

Every name represented a very outstanding young genius, one in a million.

Young Man, of course, knew that people like them were indeed the most promising candidates to enter Gang-producing Lake.

But when she heard that Lin Xun was not on the list, Young Man was somewhat dissatisfied. She said, “I think Lin Xun is nice, too. Even if he is not better than Bai Lingshi and Zhao Yin, at least he can be put on a par with Ning Meng, Shi Yu and Qi Can?”

Shu Sanqi frowned and his eyes were as sharp as a blade, “This is only my preliminary view. No one can say for sure which of these people can enter the Gang-producing Lake in the end.”

After a pause, he continued, “Compared with these people, Lin Xun is only better than average. There is indeed little hope for him to enter Gang-producing Lake unless a miracle happens.”

Young Man wanted to say something more. But Shu Sanqi interrupted her, “Okay, you need to care about whether Lin Xun will be eliminated in this monthly assessment at first.”

Young Man raised her long and thin eyebrows, but did not say more at last. She clearly knew that Lin Xun was indeed a little far behind these people. But Young Man also believed that if Lin Xun could pass this assessment and stay, he would surely be able to improve rapidly in the following training.

After all, others had already reached the ninth level of Martial Realm while Lin Xun was only on the seventh level. It seemed to be his weaknesses, but it also meant that Lin Xun had greater space for progress!

If Lin Xun had improved himself to the ninth level of Martial Realm before the end of a year's training, he would be able to remedy these gaps.

“How are Old Mo’s things going?” Shu Sanqi suddenly asked.

Love this novel? Read it on Royal Road to ensure the author gets credit.

“It's going well, but succeed is still some way off,” Young Man replied quickly.

“Well, as long as Lin Xun can finish it before he leaves,” Shu Sanqi nodded.

Young Man couldn't help saying, “Why can't we keep Lin here? You have known that Lin Xun may not be as good as Bai Lingshi in martial cultivation, but he is a rare genius in terms of spiritual tattoos in the world. According to Old Mo, the gifted girl Feng Qingyou in Green-deer School was not as good as him in his age, either!!”

Shu Sanqi kept silent for a long time and said, “We can’t, because Heiyao Shrine will not let him stay here.”

When Shu mentioned the Heiyao Shrine, Young Man suddenly felt helpless and sighed in her heart.

But neither of them knew that Heiyao Shrine hadn’t noticed Lin Xun had such a brilliant talent in spiritual tattoos...

Lin Xun hadn’t been given much attention even. They sent him to Bloodthirsty Camp was just because of Shia Zhi.

…

In the temporary base of Camp 40.

The Residual Wolf stroked his chin and drew back his sight from the Spiritual Projector. Suddenly he laughed lightly, “The result has been certain!”

In the temporary base of Camp 39.

As the assessment lasted, Young Ke had been wrinkling her dedicate eyebrows.

The situation was not optimistic.

Eleven trainees of Camp 39 had been eliminated up to now, and only thirteen were left. While there were still twenty-six trainees of Camp 40.

The difference in the number was not important, but when the other side chose to bully and conquer trainees of Camp 39 by numbers, the situation was somewhat serious.

Just like this moment, Ning Meng was fighting fiercely with Lei Shinyue and the other two people, but another trainee of Camp 40 joined in the fight suddenly, so that Ning Meng had to choose to flee temporarily.

Lei Shinyue wouldn’t let him escape and kept hunting him.

The same situation also happened to Shi Yu, Lee Qiu and some others of Camp 39.

Although the situations that Qi Can, Wen Mingxiu, Mou Lengshin and others encountered were different from those of Ning Meng, Shi Yu, etc., they had also realized the danger and started to unite with each other. But in the face of the Wolf Pack Tactics of Camp 40, they didn’t have any advantage.

Young Ke could even imagine that when Ning Meng and Shi Yu were beaten one by one, Qi Cha and his group would inevitably encounter more sieges.

“This Residual Wolf really has no sense of shame!”

Young Ke became slightly angry. In her view, the monthly assessment was to test trainees’ ability to face danger alone.

Because in the real battlefield, there was no time to carefully lay out, and everything depended on personal combat experience and strategies. It was no different from cheating to tell them how to deal with the danger in advance. That couldn’t achieve the real purpose of assessment.

However, it was obvious that the Residual Wolf didn’t think so. He regarded the assessment as a competition he had to win. Therefore, he carefully arranged it in advance, which undoubtedly changed the true meaning of the assessment and made the assessment be covered with conspiracy and calculation.

For Young Ke, this was the most shameless way to win. But she didn’t say anything because there were no relevant restrictions in the assessment rules.

“The trainees trained by the Residual Wolf are the most qualified warriors.”

The Fatty Middle-aged came in, looked at the frosty Young Ke and said, “The difference between you and him is that the trainees you trained are real overmatches.”

Young Ke frowned, “Is there any difference between warriors and overmatches?”

Fatty Middle-aged replied, “Of course, there is. Obeying orders is the first priority of warriors, who are proficient in fighting and embattling, but they lack the spirit of facing enemies and the courage of cutting off all means of retreat; only real overmatches can own this kind of spirit and courage.”

After a pause, he continued, “You should have known that in the past wars between the empire and its enemies, those deciding the outcomes of wars were always the overmatches who had already been indifferent to personal life and death, instead of warriors who only knew how to cooperate and obey orders!”

Young Ke kept silent for a moment. She agreed with this idea, but she also knew that once Camp 39 failed in the monthly assessment, there was no need to talk about the difference between warriors and overmatches.

That was what was called “win and you are king; lose and you are the outcast”; after the assessment, the losers would be eliminated. Who would remember that they had the possibility of becoming a real overmatch?

“Eh?! There's a variable,” Fatty Middle-aged shouted suddenly, fixed his eyes on the screen of Spiritual Projector and looked a little surprised, “Unexpectedly, it’s that kid.”

Young Ke also looked at the screen and saw that Lin Xun was approaching the direction of Ning Meng.

“If this kid can cooperate with Ning Meng and defeat those enemies, maybe he can change the situation to some extent, but I heard that this kid is only on the seventh level of Martial Realm, right? I don't know if he can do it or not,” Fatty Middle-aged spoke quickly.

“H'm…” Young Ke’s eyes were glued to Lin Xun in the screen.

Soon, she found that Shi Yu was running in the same direction at this moment.

In the screen, Lin Xun, Ning Meng and Shi Yu were three black spots converging toward the same place from different directions. There would be a moment of meeting finally.

Success or failure hinged on their actions?

An idea came to Young Ke’s mind, but she could not be sure.

...

The dense jungle was dark and wet, Lin Xun was flying forward carefully and soundlessly like a shadow in the jungle.

Compared with the environment of marsh, jungle’s environment was more complex. There were hiding places everywhere. It was a natural place for assassination.

Lin Xun dared not be careless. He even exerted his perceptive power to the utmost. While moving forward, he carefully explored the surrounding environment for fear of encountering ambushes.

At the same time, he was looking for an excellent hiding place which must be accessible to the enemy but easy to be overlooked at the same time.

It was undoubtedly difficult to find such a place. Until now, Lin Xun hadn’t found one.

Suddenly, a loud noise came from the distance and trees fell down. It seemed that a terrible beast was rushing toward this side.

Lin Xun’s eyes narrowed and he leaped onto a big old tree beside him. The dense and plump branches and leaves completely concealed his figure.

The loud noise approached at an incredible speed almost at the same time.

But to Lin's surprise, it was not a wild beast but a strong young man!

How could it be this guy?

Lin Xun recognized Ning Meng at first glance.
