Disastrous Necromancer

Chapter 48

48 – Battle-Space, A True Battlefield

After Lin Moyu waited for a minute, a wave of monsters finally emerged.

This time, the Mage-type monster was replaced with a leader rank monster.

To Lin Moyu, there was no difference.

The Skeletal Warriors rushed forward and smashed the opponent, and then the place became quiet again.

For Lin Moyu, the fourth round of the examination has come to an end.

Now he has to wait for the others to be done as well.

After waiting for 10 minutes, the fourth round of the examination finally concluded.

“The fourth round of the examination is over.”

“120 people participated in the fourth round, But in the end, five passed.”

Murmur…

The examiner’s voice spread out both inside and outside the tower.

Only five of the 120 people were left.

This indicates that these five people are true geniuses, capable of entering the top academies.

At the same time, the ranking of the five individuals came out.

“The ranking after the fourth round is out.”

No. 1, Lin Moyu, total points: 3,605.

No. 2, Zuo Mei, total points: 2,470.

No. 3, Xia Xue, total points: 2,270.

No. 4, Wang Zihao, total points: 2,265.

No. 5, Feng Xiu, total points: 2,200.

Lin Moyu still has a strong lead.

Light shone on the five individuals, and they regained their peak condition.

Wang Zihao has fallen into a weakened state after entering frenzy. But when he illuminated by the light, his weakened state evaporated. His skill Frenzy can be used once more.

“Everything was as expected! The fifth round is when the winner will really be determined!” Wang Zihao gripped his large blade, a smile on his face.

Xia Xue let out a long breath, “I’m in the top 5. It shouldn’t be a problem to enter Xiajing Academy.”

Zuo Mei has a solemn look in her eyes, “Xiajing Academy, here I come.”

Without exception, the goal of all five people is Xiajing Academy.

The examiner’s voice rang out again.

“I know you want to enter Xiajing Academy.”

“However, it’s not that easy to enter Xiajing Academy.”

“Don’t think you can have a peace of mind by reaching the top five. There is still the final round of the examination left. If your performance isn’t good enough, you will still be eliminated.”

“If you want to enter Xiajing Academy, you must earn points.”

“So long as you earn 10,000 points, you will be able to enter Xiajing Academy.”

“Now listen carefully to the rules of the fifth round.”

…

The five individuals perked up their ears and listened attentively.

The fifth round has its own name.

It is called Battle-Space.

They will be sent into a special space.

Where monsters will emerge in endless succession.

Including Warrior-type, Mage-type, Archer-type, and Knight-type monsters.

Any type of monster you can think of will appear in Battle-Space.

And they will appear in large numbers. For the first batch, there will be more than 100 monsters.

In the later stages, there will be enhanced, elite, enhanced elite, leader, and even boss rank monsters.

The faster you kill the monsters, the more monsters will be bred and the stronger they will be.

This requires them to adjust their killing tempo.

In this case, the faster the tempo isn’t the better.

The most crucial thing is the changes regarding points.

Battle-Space can be divided into five stages, with different amounts of points that can be earned at each stage.

In the first stage, the monsters are level 15, and killing them will earn you 50 points per monster.

In the second stage, the monsters are level 16, and killing them will earn you 100 points per monster.

Every time the level of the monsters is raised by one level, the points are doubled.

In the fifth stage, the monsters are level 19, and killing them will earn you 800 points per monster.

And this is just the case for ordinary monsters. Enhanced, elite, leader, and boss rank monsters are worth more points.

If Lin Moyu fails in this round of the examination, his lead will go up in smoke.

It seems a bit unfair.

All previous efforts will be rendered useless.

Lin Moyu realized that for the truly strong, the fifth round is where they will truly exert themselves.

The great examination’s function is to select talents who can become pillars of the human race.

When the countdown ended, the fifth round of the great examination officially started.

The remaining five individuals were teleported into the Battle-Space.

In the control room at the top of the tower, footages of the five people disappeared at this time.

The examiners revealed disappointed looks, “Sigh, this damned rule. Even we can’t watch.”

“Indeed. The fifth round is the most exciting part. But it’s not for us to watch.”

“With our authority, we can only see the points change.”

“Sir Ning, can you watch the fifth round?”

The examiners looked at Ning Xuanfeng with anticipation in their eyes.

They are feeling really restless, especially itching to see Lin Moyu’s performance in the fifth round.

Ning Xuanfeng swept with his eyes and uttered in a flat tone, “I can’t.”

The examiners revealed a startled shade on their faces, “Even you can’t.”

“Then who can?”

Ning Xuanfeng nodded, “In the empire, there are no more than 10 people who have the authority to watch the fifth round of the great examination.”

The examiners were dumbfounded.

No more than ten people, they dare not even think what kind of big shots they are.

Ning Xuanfeng carried on, “Anyway, keep this in mind. This isn’t something you should inquire about. I was in a good mood, so I overshared a little.”

“I see, I see!”

“Don’t worry, we won’t.”

The examiners are no idiots. They realized that things aren’t that simple.

No matter how bold they are, they dare not inquire.

There are no more than 10 people in the entire Shenxia Empire who have this authority.

Just listening to Ning Xuanfeng’s words scared them sufficiently.

The Battle-Space is a huge and wide plain.

The earth here is pitch-black, emitting a smell of blood.

There are countless rocks scattered about, some of which are several meters tall.

This environment provides class users with more intricate room of maneuver.

Lin Moyu’s nose twitched slightly, “The smell of blood is quite strong. And it’s full of the aura of death. This place has gone through an unimaginable battle.”

As a Necromancer, Lin Moyu is particularly sensitive to the aura of death.

Whether it’s Xihai Mine Dungeon or the previous rounds of the examination.

None contained the aura of death.

This place is different.

It has genuine aura of death lingering in the air.

There has been a real deadly battle here, and it has been of a very large scale.

Blood soaked the earth, turning it dark-brown, with the smell of blood lingering for years.

“This is to have us experience the battlefield in advance?”

Footsteps resounded, and a group of monsters appeared in his line of sight.
