Chapter 58: Clearance Method

“That’s right. According to the student information, he even set a record for clearing the Goblin King Dungeon. Furthermore, he developed a new way of clearing the dungeon, reducing the time of the dungeon by a full 80%.”
Hearing the invigilator’s report, a gentle expression finally appeared on Mu Qinglang’s indifferent face. “There’s finally a class advancement player this year.”
“Pay more attention to him during the exam later. I want to see if his hidden profession is really capable or if he’s opportunistic.”
“Got it!”
Although this kind of behavior was a little against the rules, how could the invigilator dare to disagree? After all, the person in front of him was an existence that even the four deans of the Four Sages Academy had to treat respectfully!
In a huge sealed space, Zhang Xuan came back to his senses and realized that he was already inside. He was surrounded by students he didn’t know. It seemed that they were all outstanding people from other regions.
Looking further away, he was surrounded by pitch-black darkness.
“I’m the first place on the scoreboard from Qingyuan City. My name is Lei Nuo, and I’m a rare class prophet. Class advancement players from Qingyuan City, gather with me!”
In the crowd, a class advancement player with a feminine appearance spoke. Then, a few class advancement players from the same region as him approached.
“Those from Yanqing City, come here!”
“Gather here, those from Anxing City!”
The other class advancement players were similar. Soon, everyone found class advancement players from the same academy immediately, but Zhang Xuan didn’t see anyone from Xinyuan City.
However, it didn’t matter. He was already used to being alone, and it wasn’t necessary to gather together for warmth.
“The second round of the test will begin. You will be divided into groups of 40 people. Everyone needs to hold on for more than 30 minutes or find the exit under the pursuit of the tower boss.”
“During this period, if you are killed by the Boss or press the exit button on your arm, you will be considered eliminated!”
As the broadcast sounded, Zhang Xuan also noticed that an electronic device had been installed on his arm, and so did the other students.
At the same time, the surrounding darkness retreated. Zhang Xuan realized that they were on a very wide floating platform. At the edge of the platform was a bottomless abyss.
“ROAR!”
Zhang Xuan vaguely heard a roar. Then, he immediately came to the edge of the platform and looked down. A monster more than 20 meters long in the shape of a scorpion was climbing up the side wall with a roar.
[Boss: Strange Demon Scorpion]
[Level: 35] [Health:
[Strength: 7500]
[Defense: 1,900]
[Agility: 743]
[Skills: Scorpion Tail Earthquake, Needle Rain, Poison Spread]
[Boss Features: Unable to be killed]
To Zhang Xuan, the monster’s interface was actually very ordinary. It was far inferior to the Goblin King in the dungeon. This round of tests seemed to be a test of the class advancement players’ skills.
The difficulty lay in how to use the level to avoid the monster’s attack. After all, this monster couldn’t be killed. It was clearly impossible to achieve the goal of clearing the level by killing it.
“Can’t be killed?!”
“In other words, we can only choose to take it head-on!”
“How can I resist? Will I die?”
“Stop whining and get ready to fight!”
The other students also saw this scene, but they didn’t panic. Everyone who could get into this place had fought in the wild and man-eating dungeons.
Therefore, after complaining, many people immediately adjusted their defensive formation.
However, in the next moment, a thick tail needle suddenly stretched out from the distant darkness. The tail needle wasn’t fast, but the platform was only so big. Although everyone dodged immediately, some people almost lost their footing and fell down.
Zhang Xuan observed silently from afar. A few Skeleton Warriors and the Evil Spirit Sister appeared beside him.
After he changed his profession, other than her agility attribute increasing a lot, the Evil Spirit Sister didn’t change much. However, her agility had already broken through to a four-figure sum, and she looked much better than before.
Of course, she still hadn’t lost her invisibility.
“Go scout the way.”
With Zhang Xuan’s order, the Evil Spirit Sister rushed into the darkness around her, while the Skeleton Warrior stayed by his side to protect her.
A moment later, Zhang Xuan received information from the Evil Spirit Sister. There were a few passageways around.
However, in the next moment, a few thick tail needles extended from those passageways one after another, blocking all the passageways!
It seemed that these passageways were the way to clear the level. However, before that, he had to think of a way to clean up the stinger.
The surrounding students also noticed this scene. Everyone immediately approached the center of the platform, afraid that they would be affected by the scorpion tail.
“Everyone, listen to me. Don’t let this Boss climb up, or we’ll definitely be eliminated! ”
“Everyone, attack with me and stop it!”
At this moment, Zhang Xuan heard a call. Then, he saw Lei Nuo lead the class advancement players around him to the edge of the platform. Countless skills were fired crazily.
As the colorful skills smashed down, the Strange Demon Scorpion’s advancement indeed slowed down!
Seeing this, the other class advancement players also took the initiative to attack. However, Zhang Xuan noticed that the guy called Lei Nuo took advantage of the crowd and quietly took a few steps back, away from the edge of the platform.
“This guy seems to know something.”
As Zhang Xuan was thinking, the Strange Demon Scorpion below suddenly swung its huge scorpion tail. The scorpion tail hit the wall of the tower ruthlessly, and instantly, the entire platform shook violently.
The Skeleton Warrior firmly held onto Zhang Xuan, who was swaying. However, a few class advancement players who were caught off guard fell down. The Strange Demon Scorpion immediately stretched out its huge claws and grabbed them all.
Crack!
A girl was cut in half by the Strange Demon Scorpion. Blood immediately flowed from her mouth and nose. She struggled to press the exit button, but she was immediately completely torn into pieces.
Seeing this, a smile appeared on Lei Nuo’s lips.
Lei Nuo was a Rare-class prophet. He could sense the information of the monster and make the most suitable response. From the beginning, he had sensed the way this Strange Demon Scorpion would attack and knew how to delay it.
Letting it eat was the best way!
Although the remaining class advancement players weren’t caught, at this moment, the Strange Demon Scorpion emitted a black poisonous gas.
Except for one class advancement player who could fly, the others turned black the moment they came into contact with the poisonous gas!
Zhang Xuan looked at Lei Nuo, who was smiling triumphantly at this moment. He couldn’t help but frown slightly.
“There’s something wrong with this kid.”
Creak.
Creak.
The platform regained its calm. Everyone could only hear the sound of chewing flesh continuously echoing. The few poisoned class advancement players had also lost their vitality. It was obvious that they had been poisoned to death.
At this moment, they deeply realized that the examiner wasn’t joking.. If they were caught by the Boss, they would really die!
