Note: Not an advertisement, just a reminder to everyone, don't be late for tonight's 12 o'clock add-precision conference, hehe...
No more words, let's read books...

The test went on until late at night before it ended, and the results of the first day's test were also out. Esruin and I were tied for first place, with a score of 300 points, far ahead of the other contestants.
This result was somewhat within our expectations, although we didn't think we would be in first place, but our scores were tied, which should be reasonable, even if it's hard for us to distinguish who is higher or lower than the other, let alone the examiners.
After the first day of testing, there were less than 3,000 people left. The number of people eliminated was the least among the three exams. I believe that after tomorrow, the number of people who can continue to stay here will not be too many.
Back in my doghouse, I didn't linger for long. Today's tests were all easy, but I didn't dare to be careless at all. Who knows what tomorrow will test?
Especially with Aisrein as a competitor, I don't want to lose to him, so... I must seize every opportunity to enrich myself. My goal is only one, that is to become a student of the Arbitration Academy with first-class honors! Not even a tie will be considered.
After a night of practice, although I didn't make great progress, I could clearly feel that my state had reached its best. Now I have the confidence to face any challenge.
At the same time... In the largest and most luxurious inn in Jintian City, Aislen was walking out of a huge bathtub, with water droplets dripping from his muscular body, flowing along the grooves between his muscles, gradually gathering into fine streams, and flowing down to his feet one by one.
One step... two steps... three steps...
When he walked to the third step, his whole body was dripping wet, and his skin seemed to be smeared with oil, making it difficult for a single drop of water to hang on him.
He lightly put on his clothes, gave a faint smile and muttered: "Cold? I won't lose to you, today... let's meet at the examination hall!"
Then... almost at the same time, Leng Mo and Aisuren set out from their own residences, heading in the direction of the Arbitration Academy. This day would not be an ordinary one.
At 8:00 am sharp, all candidates gathered again in the top ten examination halls of Arbitration College. This time, each examination hall was left with only 300 people.
The rules of this exam are very simple, you must pass through a 100-meter corridor within two minutes. Those who succeed in passing through will be considered qualified, while those who fail to pass through will be considered failed and lose the qualification for further assessment.
This time, the examination venue was changed to a flat-roofed building behind the Arbitration Academy's theme building. The building has ten large gates, each of which can test ten people at a time. It seems that it would be good if we could finish testing everyone in one day today.
Soon, a new round of lottery ceremony began. This time I drew No. 2414, while Bing Yu, also known as Aisuren, drew No. 1446 and took the test one step ahead of me. Unlike yesterday, today anyone who finished the test could leave because this was the only test for today.
The test began soon after the draw ceremony, and since both I and Bingyu were ranked relatively low, we were basically free, so naturally, we gathered together.
We both belong to the kind of people who don't talk much, but when we do, it's always something useful. So, when the two of us are together, it's inevitable that there will be a bit of silence. However, I thoroughly enjoy this quietness and harmony, and I believe he does too, judging from his expression.
When two people are together, it's not necessarily that the more they talk, the more comfortable they'll feel. Sometimes, silence can be even more intoxicating. Although we rarely speak, I think we're both the same kind of person - the kind who is strong-willed to the bone, competitive at heart, but also kind and gentle.
But... don't think that being kind is equivalent to being weak. Every person has two sides, a gentle side and a brutal side. What's called making friends is actually just trying hard to find the other person's gentle side.
If someone really makes me angry, I believe... that person must have seen the back of me before. Although I don't know much about Bing Yu, but I believe, if he's provoked, the result won't be much better than provoking me.
From his eyes, which were completely devoid of vitality, it was clear that this was a guy who took people's lives lightly. Except for the faint glimmer in his gaze when he looked at me, whenever he looked at others, it seemed as if he was looking at dead objects, just like looking at a blade of grass or an ant. I thought... killing someone was probably no different from stepping on an ant to him.
In silence, time slowly passed, and finally... it was Ice Rain's turn to test. I smiled and stretched out my hand, saying lightly: "Good luck!"
Bing Yu was taken aback for a moment, then smiled slightly and shook hands with me. Without saying anything, he turned around and walked towards the examination passage. Looking at his back, I don't know why, but I felt full of confidence in him, believing that he would definitely achieve remarkable results.
As expected... After a while, he walked back with a relaxed face. I looked at him with a smile and asked concernedly: "How was it? How did the exam go?"
Ice Rain proudly raised his thumb towards his own chest and said, "No problem... this exam is just child's play for me, I believe you feel the same way too!"
I smiled and nodded, indeed... although I don't know what this test is about, but from the previous exams, it's not much different from a game to me.
It's strange that after the test, Ice Rain didn't leave immediately but instead continued to sit there. I knew... he was waiting for my reaction. It seems... not only did I not want to lose to him, but he also didn't want to lose to me.
At noon, we each had a bowl of papaya porridge and continued waiting until it was almost dark before it was my turn to take the test.
At the moment I stood up, Yīng Yuè said faintly to me: "Add oil!"
Although it's just two simple words, after spending two days together, I somehow feel like I've understood him a lot. I smiled slightly at him and gave him a thumbs up, pointing to my own chest, confidently saying: "Trust me, no problem!"
After finishing speaking, I walked towards the examination passage with big strides, saying that there was no problem in my mouth, but actually I still had a little nervousness, not afraid of the exam, but afraid that my grades would not be ideal, losing to Bingyu, and even more afraid that my performance would not be good, thus losing to the opponent.
With a nervous heart, I entered the examination channel. Originally...I could have asked Yuki what she was taking the exam for, but with a relatively cautious mentality, not only did I not ask her, but also didn't ask anyone else, because I wanted to start the exam from the same starting point as Yuki, otherwise, even if I won, I wouldn't be satisfied.
I entered the examination passage, and the heavy iron gate closed behind me with a loud bang. Suddenly... I entered a dimly lit passageway, where only faint light allowed me to see everything around me.
A faint smile, I circulated the true energy, concentrated on both eyes, suddenly... everything around me was as bright as daylight, when I saw everything clearly, I couldn't help but laugh foolishly.
The passageway was about 10 meters wide, with thick pillars standing upright like sentinels. Between the pillars were placed black iron cages, and inside those cages were creatures I knew all too well - wind wolves!
These little things not only have a considerable physical impact force, but can also emit indestructible wind blades. Generally, warriors really can't deal with them.
Looking further away, there are nearly 100 wind chimes placed in the entire passageway, each one carefully positioned... this is indeed a great test.
Actually... I could see the purpose of the test at a glance, but it's just to let everyone use the pillars as cover, dodge the wind blades shot out by Feng Xue, take advantage of speed to gain time difference, and then quickly pass through.
But... looking at these hundred pheasants, how can I just run over like that? These are all my future meals, haha... If I were to buy them on the street, not to mention I don't have the money, even if I did, I couldn't afford it. The prices in Jietian City are really not ordinary!
Greedy, I licked my lips and looked around, making sure there were no proctors nearby. Then I quickly got to work... haha, why not take it if it's free? Last time I packed away all the rabbits, and nobody said anything about me not being one.
Very soon... all 100 wind goats in the iron cages were packed into the spatial pouch by me. I warned that little silver wolf, at most they could eat 70 of them, which was 10 per person. If anyone dared to eat more than that, I would never put good things in the spatial pouch again.
After looking around, I confirmed that there were no more wind deer left behind and walked out with satisfaction. After I walked out, the examiner who checked the examination equipment immediately discovered this situation and reported it to the school in a timely manner.
