The graduation trial wasn’t just for the seventh safe zone where Wang Xu was. All the talented and powerful students from the first, second… to the sixth safe zone would come to participate in the graduation trial.
By then, all the geniuses in the world would begin to fight for the only place in the legion.
This was a grand trial. It was a battle between all the geniuses in the world. To Wang Xu, it was more like a cultivation. He had to fight his way out of the siege!
“Those at level three will go this way. Enter Tunnel B and proceed to the Elite Legion assessment. Those at level four will go this way and enter Tunnel A to the Genius Legion assessment.”
The person in charge of leading students from the seventh safe zone was a skinny man. He was in military clothing, carrying a green military backpack and wearing a pair of cross-country shoes. He was guiding the younger generation of Genetic Academy to enter the tunnels.
Wang Xu followed the man’s instructions and walked towards Tunnel A. Compared to Tunnel B, Tunnel A was especially quiet. Besides Wang Xu, there were a few young men that Wang Xu had never met before.
“Are you Wang Xu?” One of the young men with fiery red hair walked over and asked with a smile on his face.
“Hm.” Wang Xu looked at him in confusion.
“Haha, it’s really you. I really admire you. You actually killed a student in the trial. You’re truly amazing!” The man with fiery red hair laughed and said as he extended his hand. “Let me introduce myself. I’m from the Inner Academy. My name is Li Ming. Everyone calls me ‘Red Hair.'”
From the Inner Academy?
Wang Xu was secretly surprised in his mind. The Inner Academy wasn’t like the Outer Academy. It was said that each and every one of them were people with extraordinary talent. Li Ming in front of Wang Xu looked younger than him, but his strength was above Wang Xu’s.
“I won’t introduce myself. You should know better than me,” said Wang Xu.
“Haha, those are my seniors. Their strength is much stronger than mine. They are also one of our competitors,” Red Hair said.
Wang Xu looked at the men and women in front of him and was secretly shocked in his mind. No one from the Inner Academy was weaker than him.
“The man in black at the very front is our eldest senior. He’s already a level-five Gene Warrior. There’s no need for him to participate in the trial at all. He has been recruited by the Genius Legion directly!” Red Hair said in a low voice.
Level five!
Wang Xu’s gaze landed on the man in black at the front. He was rather handsome and had a cold look. His eyes were filled with arrogance.
As if sensing Wang Xu’s gaze, the man in black turned around and met his eyes.
Wang Xu nodded in a friendly manner, but the man in black only took a glance before turning his head away.
“Don’t worry about it. Our eldest senior is just like that. Even though he always has a straight face, he is still very friendly towards us,” Red Hair said.
At the end of the tunnel, a high-speed train stopped on the rails. The high-speed train was surrounded by a faint green halo. It was entirely made from S-grade minerals. Such a train costs at least billions of Earth Coins!
The difference between the graduation trial and the Academy’s trial was huge. They couldn’t enter through the jumping rooms, only by old ways like the train.
After confirming their identities, Wang Xu and Red Hair boarded the train.
“Hi! Wang Xu!” As soon as they got into the car, a pleasant voice came. Wang Xu followed the voice and looked over, seeing Tang Yan immediately.
Tang Yan had changed her usual delicate appearance. Her long hair was cut short, and she had bright eyes and white teeth, looking neat and tidy. She waved her hands to greet Wang Xu.
Wang Xu smiled. His temperament had changed drastically, and he was no longer the young and inexperienced young man who would blush when he saw Tang Yan. He walked over directly and sat opposite Tang Yan.
“Congratulations,” said Wang Xu.
“You still want to talk about it. When I advanced to level four, many of my classmates came to congratulate me. Only you didn’t come.” Tang Yan grunted in dissatisfaction.
Wang Xu rubbed his nose guiltily. In the last six months, it could be said that he didn’t pay attention to matters in the outside world at all and wholeheartedly cultivated in the Extreme Dao Ancient Hall. He only learned from Li Lian about Tang Yan’s advancement.
“Brother Zhang.” Wang Xu greeted Zhang Xinglin when he saw him resting with his eyes closed in a corner.
Although Zhang Xinglin didn’t fulfill his promise during the trial, thinking about it, they weren’t close at all. Why should he help him?
After thinking it through, Wang Xu was more open-minded and still greeted Zhang Xinglin warmly when he saw him.
Zhang Xinglin opened his eyes and nodded at Wang Xu before closing them again.
Wang Xu could see the fighting spirit in Zhang Xinglin’s eyes. Clearly, he was very unhappy that Wang Xu advanced to level four before him. He was afraid that Wang Xu would challenge him to a match to determine who was better one day.
Looking around, Wang Xu realized that the entire train was so long, but there were only three people from the Outer Academy, six people from the Inner Academy, and some train attendants.
The car was very quiet. Wang Xu and Tang Yan were chatting and the few people from the Inner Academy were also conversing softly. Only the whistling of the wind filled the entire train car.
“Everyone.” Suddenly, on the screen of the train car, a middle-aged man in a suit said to everyone.
Come and read on our website wuxia worldsite. Thanks
“In two hours, you will arrive at the place where the graduation trial will take place. I am the person in charge of this trial, ‘Lin Fengxiao.’ Next, I will explain the rules of the graduation trial to you.
“Please remember that the goal of this trial is very simple, to kill insect beasts. After you kill the insect beasts, you only need to bring back a portion of their bodies. Of course, you are not allowed to bring your Space Rings in this trial.”
Wang Xu frowned after hearing this. He wasn’t allowed to bring his Space Ring?
“We will evaluate you based on the level of the insect beasts and the difficulty of hunting them. You can be assured of fairness.
“Secondly, we will distribute a distress flare to the students participating in the trial. When you encounter danger, you can shoot it into the sky. By then, we will send someone to rescue you. But at the same time… you will also be disqualified from the trial.
“Thirdly, the trial will last from 12 noon to 12 noon tomorrow. Before noon tomorrow, you have to return to the train station. We will not delay for a couple people. If you don’t make it, we will directly announce your death.
“I’ve already explained the rules. Everyone, you have two hours to prepare for it. Try your best to survive this trial.”
After saying that, the middle-aged man smiled and the screen went black.
Wang Xu’s heart also became heavy. Since they weren’t allowed to bring their Space Rings, they couldn’t set up a radiation station. They had to fight insect beasts in the dark… Then, the mortality rate would greatly increase!
Besides, the middle-aged man didn’t mention three key points.
Firstly, the trial this time didn’t specify the rank of the insect beasts. In other words, it was very likely that they were outside the safe zone. It wasn’t impossible for them to encounter insect beasts of level five or level six.
Secondly, even if they fired a distress flare, the rescue team might not be able to arrive quickly. At that time, they still wouldn’t be able to get out of danger.
The third point was also the most terrifying and crucial point. The middle-aged man didn’t explicitly prohibit students from killing each other. In other words, the place where the graduation trial was held would be a blood-red zone without any laws or regulations. It was a place where strength spoke louder than words!
All his speculations pointed to death. Wang Xu’s expression became solemn. The graduation trial was indeed not easy.
…
Meanwhile, dozens of powerhouses with strong auras gathered together. Their gazes landed on a huge screen. On this screen, they could see the trains heading to the trial grounds from all the safe zones.
These dozens of powerhouses came from various safe zones. Wang Xu recognized one of them. It was the white-bearded dean with a purple walking stick.
“The lineup this time is really big. White Sword Old Man, I heard that the Extreme Dao Ancient Hall invited a level-four Gene Warrior in advance?” A bald man with three blood marks on his face said to the dean.
“Oh? White Sword Old Man invited someone? Is he a talented genius?” A handsome man wearing silver armor and holding a sword said.
“Three Eyes, Silver Armor, don’t make fun of me. This kid has some talent. I only happen to have three available spaces.” The dean chuckled and said.
The bald Three Eyes pursed his lips and said, “I believe what others say, but I don’t believe it when you say it.”
The man in silver armor also smiled and said, “That’s right. I remember the last time White Sword Old Man personally invited someone, that boy was only at level three. The boy then entered the Inner Academy in a blink of an eye and advanced to level five. He had a really good taste that we can’t even catch up to him.”
The dean chuckled and didn’t reply.
“Hm! You people from the Extreme Dao Ancient Hall are still in the mood of chatting.” An unfriendly voice came. The person who spoke was a man in yellow armor. His gaze towards the dean and the others was filled with hatred.
“Huang Long, us from the Extreme Dao Ancient Hall are chatting. What does it have to do with you? Get the hell away from here!” The bald Three Eyes looked sullen as he shouted.
Three Eyes’ bad tone attracted the attention of the surrounding people.
“Yes, it has nothing to do with me. The Freedom Alliance recruited five level-five geniuses in the graduation trial this time. What about the Extreme Dao Ancient Hall? Only three. When the rankings come out, they won’t even be able to enter the top ten.” Huang Long said mockingly.
“Do you want to challenge my patience?” Three Eyes stared at Huang Long. His battle intent was surging, as if he would start fighting when the other party offended him.
The graduation trial was a competition between students, and it was also a competition between forces. Whoever occupied more and higher places on the rankings would naturally have the right to speak and would be more convincing when recruiting talents. The geniuses would certainly choose the stronger one.
“Alright, alright.” An old man in a yellow robe walked out with a smile on his face. “Cut it out. Humans should be uniting against outsiders. All internal grudges and conflicts should be put aside.”
“Long Robe, were you a monk in your past life? Why are you always the peacemaker wherever you go?” Huang Long frowned and said.
“Haha, for this old man’s sake, we’ll let this matter pass.” Long Robe cupped his fists. Three Eyes and Huang Long exchanged a fierce look and ignored each other.

…
Two hours later, the high-speed train slowly stopped.
“Alright, everyone. Hand over your Space Rings to the person in charge and you can leave the train. Remember, you must come back punctually at noon tomorrow.” With an order, Wang Xu took a green backpack, handed the Space Ring to the person in charge, and walked out of the train.
Taking a deep breath, he saw that the train had stopped at the outskirts of the wilderness. As he looked around casually, he could see that the buildings had already become ruins. Among them were several destroyed skyscrapers.
