Fate Reignites: My Rampage in a World Where Time Stops-Chapter 94 New Cultivation Method!

Upon hearing Lan Cheng's words, the fourteen Official Level examinees present all showed grave expressions.

This seriousness was not due to the fear of Advanced Demon Beasts, but because there were too few Advanced Demon Beasts in Qingwang Mountain.

Not being able to allocate even one beast per person meant that they not only needed to fully commit to killing the beasts in the mountain but also secretly compete with each other.

The examinee who first killed ten Advanced Demon Beasts could gain a large number of points, while those who were slower could only accumulate points by killing more ordinary Demon Beasts.

However, the points for the latter were far lower than the former, making it nearly impossible to overtake by this method.

Noticing their reactions, Lan Cheng smiled satisfactorily and then announced, "Next, the team arrangement for the Apprentice Level examinees will be announced."

"You must form teams according to the arrangement, and kill Demon Beasts to complete the assessment."

"The team points calculation is slightly different from the Official Level examinees' individual points calculation."

"As long as there is still one member of the team not eliminated, all members' survival points will continue to accumulate, 60% of the team's killing points will be evenly distributed among the members, and the remaining 40% will be awarded based on actual combat contributions as determined after review by the judges."

The team arrangements were quickly distributed, and upon knowing their respective groups, the playground suddenly became agitated. The examinees began to move, searching for their teammates; no longer organized by school or class, but rather by small groups.

Although Qin Chuan was not in a group, he observed the grouping situation.

The grouping was completely random—six people per group, and nearly every group had examinees from different schools.

This point was quite interesting.

Examinees from different schools should have been in a competitive relationship during practical assessments.

Just like during city-wide exams when teachers often mention the top students from other schools.

Yet, they were assigned to the same group, forced to assist examinees from other schools in achieving the highest possible score.

Qin Chuan was quite suspicious that this was intentional by the Special Affairs Group.

When he saw the faint smile at the corner of Lan Cheng's mouth, his suspicion quickly turned into conviction.

It was definitely intentional.

After a while, Qin Chuan finally spotted Xiao Pang's figure in the crowded field, watching him engage in friendly interaction with his five new teammates before turning his attention away.

Hoping that Xiao Pang would achieve good results.

If he could get first place at the Apprentice Level and win the prize of Low-level Resources, Xiao Pang's promotion to Official Level could be further accelerated.

About a quarter of an hour later, the playground, filled with thousands of examinees, gradually quieted down. There were occasional whispers, but order was no longer chaotic.

"Next, all of you will be led by staff from the Special Affairs Group and enter Qingwang Mountain from different directions," Lan Cheng slowly spoke. "I remind you for the last time, in case of danger, do not hesitate to call for help immediately."

"Your life safety is much more important than the results of a practical exam."

"Attacking other examinees during the practical exam is prohibited; violators will have their results canceled and severe cases will be legally prosecuted."

Following Lan Cheng's words, one after another, Special Affairs Group staff stepped forward, leading Apprentice Level teams and Official Level examinees to different entrances.

Qin Chuan was soon called up, along with nine Apprentice Level teams.

After entering the designated entrance, he immediately separated from the others and alone chose a path to delve deeper into Qingwang Mountain.

The other examinees also knew their goals were not the same; as an Official Level examinee, Qin Chuan had to actively seek Advanced Demon Beasts, while these Apprentice Level teams, by contrast, did not invite Qin Chuan to join them.

At this moment, at the other entrances, the remaining thirteen Official Level examinees made choices similar to Qin Chuan's.

To secure the first place in this assessment and win a piece of Starshine Equipment Material of their choice, they must find Advanced Demon Beasts and kill them quickly.

Killing an Advanced Demon Beast meant their results would not be at the bottom.

If fortunate enough to kill more, not only could they have a greater chance of finishing first but also deprive other competitors of the opportunity to kill Advanced Demon Beasts.

This was a winner-takes-all competition.

-----------------

After all the examinees had left, the large playground at the base of the mountain became quiet again, but a building next to the big playground was bustling at the moment.

Inside the building was the main surveillance room for this assessment.

Dozens of Special Affairs Group staff, wearing serious expressions, closely monitored each hidden camera in Qingwang Mountain, occasionally focusing on some particularly striking parts of the footage.

Selected footage would immediately appear in the large meeting room next-door.

In that meeting room sat Lan Cheng, leading Special Affairs Group personnel, deputy principals of the five schools participating in the assessment, and dozens of men and women of various ages and accents.

Each of them represented a university that had established an Extraordinary Practical Department and was set to recruit students after this year's high school exams.

These were observers sent by the universities' admissions offices.

Their task was simply to observe and record.

There were many such observers, distributed all over.

They would conduct an initial screening of high-school seniors nationwide, note the outstanding examinees, and list them for further selection.

Of course, if they encountered exceptionally excellent examinees, they could also apply to the university admissions office for permission to make early contact, offering certain benefits and promises.

Every time a new image appeared on the big screen, it sparked their soft discussions; when they saw potential, they quickly jotted down notes.

Only a man and a woman were different from the rest.

They sat in the front row of all observers, and after more than a dozen changes on the big screen, they showed no intention of interacting or intending to take notes.

Because none of the examinees in the footage had caught their eye.

And these two people, or rather the universities they represented, indeed had such selective qualifications.

The woman, with an ever-calm expression, was Zhou Xiaoyu, an observer from Yan University's admissions office.

The man next to her, arms crossed, was Fan Gang, an observer from Huaqing's admissions office.

Yan University, Huaqing.

The authority of these two universities within Yanhuang Country had not wavered despite the arrival of the Transcendent era.

For they possessed the most cutting-edge research capabilities, the most extensive research resources, and the finest faculty among all universities in the country.

This enabled them to lead the way in the research of Extraordinary Theory, which, in turn, drove their leadership in Extraordinary Practical Combat.

It is said that both universities had each developed a new Cultivation Method that, after verification by supercomputers, had already been preliminarily validated in reality—an achievement other universities could only dream of.
