The next morning, around 7 o'clock.
Du Yu got up early and changed into the dark blue competition uniform belonging to Shaohai Province.
He carried two demon bows on his back and stood in front of the floor-length mirror in the wardrobe, carefully adjusting the angle of the wooden bows.
Everything looks good, including the person in the mirror.
But the black pearls sewn on the chest are an eyesore no matter how you look at it.
“Dong Dong Dong.” There was a knock on the door and Lin Shihao’s voice came in, “Du Yu is gone, let’s gather downstairs.”
"Here it comes!" Du Yu responded and plucked the two bowstrings on his chest.
Carrying two bows, he is a master in exams!
Go, take the first one~
When Du Yu walked out of the hotel door, he saw colorful people.
Students from the four major provinces all have their own color schemes.
Shaohai is blue, Guandong is white, Daishan is gold, and Hening is purple.
In comparison, Du Yu still prefers Daishan's competition uniform.
It’s not that he likes gold, but because the golden color is closer to the environmental color of the ancient deserted city and is more suitable for hiding.
Students of four colors boarded buses of their respective colors, ready to set off for the Ancient Desert City.
To be honest, the atmosphere of this joint entrance examination of four provinces was completely beyond Du Yu's expectations.
The last time we held the provincial joint examination, it was so lively!
Perhaps it was because Du Yu stood out too much. As the red team's spearhead, he was being watched by many people.
There are many who are demonstrating, provocative, and making outrageous remarks.
But this time, except for his own students, the students from the other three provinces ignored Du Yu at all.
Maybe it's because everyone is a bit arrogant.
Or, are the energy of students from all sides consumed in infighting
In any case, Du Yu likes this kind of atmosphere very much.
It all depends on your ability and strength!
If there really is another Liu Junteng-like character who challenges me to a battle on the top of the Ancient Wasteland City.
Then wouldn't I have to send the opponent home with one arrow, performing a "screw you mua's demon-controlling dream" move
"Sister Wei." Lin Shihao followed Lin Shiwei and boarded the bus.
"Um?"
Lin Shihao raised his head slightly and gestured to the young man sitting by the window at the back: "It's up to you."
"Yeah." Lin Shiwei looked at the silent Lin Shijiang and walked over.
As the girl came to his side, Lin Shijiang felt something and looked up.
Lin Shiwei said softly: "You didn't even go to the meeting in the auditorium, do you know the rules of the exam?"
Lin Shijiang turned slightly and looked out the window.
Lin Shiwei looked at Lin Shijiang with both anger and amusement. This guy was just like an autistic child.
She sat down on the chair and said casually, “Last time, we worked well together.
After you get off the bus, follow me."
Lin Shijiang said nothing, but just nodded silently.
Lin Shiwei made up her mind and looked forward.
Noticing the girl's gaze, Lin Shihao's face lit up and he mouthed, "Done?"
Seeing Lin Shiwei nod slightly, Lin Shihao was overjoyed!
The Demon Tamer, a player at his peak stage, is undoubtedly the top combat force in the team!
The students who participated in this assessment from various provinces are indeed the elites among the elites.
However, the timing of this exam is quite special, as it is a critical period when the top players of Paper Crane Disciples are entering their peak period.
Among the 25 contestants from each province, most are still lingering on the threshold of the great success stage.
Including Lin Shijiang, there are a total of 8 people in Shaohai Province who are peak demon masters.
Among the four provinces, Shaohai is leading with a slight advantage, and Lin Shihao naturally wants to expand this advantage!
As the bus drove out of Shuangqi City, the people in the front half of the bus continued to discuss siege tactics.
Du Yu, who was sitting at the back of the car, was staring at the scene outside the window in a daze.
It is midsummer now, and all kinds of crops are growing on the vast plains. It will not be long before they are harvested.
The bus drove for nearly two hours, and the scenery outside the window also changed.
The plain is still wide, but it is overgrown with weeds.
"We're here." Du Yu said softly.
Sitting next to me, Li Mengnan woke up from his sleep and rubbed his eyes: "Are we there yet?"
Du Yu looked out the window. The wasteland stretched all the way to the distance. In the far distance there stood an ancient city.
A line of poetry suddenly popped up in his mind:
The distant fragrance invades the ancient road, and the clear green meets the deserted city.
The deserted city was as majestic as I had imagined, but not gorgeous.
It was an earthen city, and it felt crudely built; Du Yu even saw cracks in the earth on the city walls.
Directly above the ancient city, you can see two giant golden hammers, which are shaped like pumpkins and placed on the central building of the ancient city.
Their handles are crossed and point toward the sky.
The hammer handle alone is probably 40 to 50 meters long, and the huge "pumpkin" itself is not shorter than the hammer handle.
"What a big pumpkin." Li Mengnan muttered softly.
"Someone." Du Yu's eyes narrowed.
Li Mengnan didn't care. Isn't it normal for someone to be here? After all, this is an examination room, and there will be many staff members.
Du Yu frowned and said softly, "Sand man."
"Bang~"
The bus suddenly shook three times, turned from the highway into a barren dirt road, and headed straight for the ancient city.
Li Mengnan: "What is it?"
Du Yu: "An ancient general, whose body, armor and horse are all made of sand."
Hearing this, Li Mengnan opened her mouth into an "o" shape.
Is it so cool
At a deserted intersection, several buses parted ways, carrying students from Shaohai Province, and drove towards the west city gate.
When passing the north gate, all the students, including Li Mengnan, saw the ancient general standing in front of the city gate.
The facial features of the ancient general are not clear, and like the earthen city walls, they have a crudely made feel.
He was riding on a tall horse, with his arms hanging naturally, holding two huge hammers, and standing motionless.
Such a scene is indeed novel!
"Is this one of the effects of the Ancient Wilderness Hammer Demon Weapon Formation?" Lin Shihao held onto the window with one hand, looking slightly surprised.
Liu Juncai also felt incredible.
There are indeed some magical weapons in the world that can summon guards.
For example, the Mountain Fire Knife can release countless Mountain Fire Knife Spirits.
Lin Shihao and Liu Juncai also thought about the possibility that the ancient hammer could summon countless earth hammers, but how could it piece together a humanoid creature through mud
this.
Liu Juncai murmured, "If this kind of sand general also has combat skills, it will be difficult to deal with."
Lin Shihao's face was solemn: "Of course there is. Such a magical weapon is full of fighting skills."
"That's right." Liu Juncai sighed softly.
The modern vehicle drove around the ancient city until it came to 100 meters in front of the west gate. The bus slowly stopped and the driver's voice came from the front: "Everyone get off the bus, don't forget to go to the side to get the monster soldiers."
"Let's go." Du Yu patted Li Mengnan on the shoulder and got off the bus with the girl.
The sun is shining brightly, and it is also hot in Kanto in July.
There wasn't even a trace of wind around the ancient city, which made it even more stuffy.
"Squeak." Du Yu rolled the sole of his shoe and it felt very slippery.
The wasteland was covered with a layer of fine sand, and the battlefield conditions were indeed harsh enough.
He raised his head and looked forward.
General Shatu was an unusually large man, wearing a sand helmet and sand armor, and the warhorse under his crotch was two meters tall at the shoulder.
Behind the man and the beast was a cracked earthen wall, about 10 meters high. Above the wall there was nothing and total silence.
But Du Yu knew that since the Ancient Waste Hammer could piece together a Sand General, it could also piece together a group of soldiers defending the city on the city wall at any time!
The enemy is hidden invisibly, which means that there are hidden dangers everywhere around the ancient city.
Daxia Book House, is it really good at taking exams
"Here." Li Mengnan came to Du Yu and handed him a miniature camera and an invisible headset.
As the bus drove away, a man's voice came from the invisible headset: "Attention all students, the exam will officially begin in 3 minutes.
Objective: Break through the city gate of the area, search for and kill the commander in the city.
Once again, please be reminded that the modern functional buildings in the city have been closed and any form of breaking into the walls is not allowed.
I wish you all good results.”
Different from other strange and magical realms that Du Yu had visited.
In the strange land of Guhuangchui, buildings such as the Monster Pet Center and the Monster Spirit Bookstore are all located inside the ancient city.
During the previous meeting, Director Tian had repeatedly stressed that functional buildings must not be affected during the battle.
As for other houses in the city, people can enter them at will to hide in them, use them as shelters, etc.
But these are all later stories. What the students need to consider now is how to break through the city gate.
"Come, everyone gather around me." Lin Shihao greeted them.
"Shihao!"
"Behind!" Several voices suddenly sounded, and Lin Shihao turned his head abruptly and looked back.
A hundred meters away, General Shatu actually moved!
He seemed to come "alive" and slowly raised his head and right hand, pointing the huge hammer at the blue team's students.
"Xilulu!" The war horse trampled on the sand with its hooves, and was also awakened, raising its head and neighing loudly.
The roar was obviously the result of friction and vibration of sand.
It's very hoarse and hard to hear.
"Hiss" General Shatu roared, and his sand armor buzzed.
In an instant, behind the general, endless sand began to flow and slowly pieced together.
One by one, the sand figures stood up shakily, there were as many as a hundred of them!
Not only that, on the west gate wall, there are also lines of sand rising from the ground, with an astonishing momentum!
"Fuck! With this kind of situation, they still want us to attack the city?" Liu Junhu's face was ugly, and he cursed, "They should rush out and kill us, right?"
"Winter! Winter! Winter!"
The war horses stepped forward step by step. General Shatu broke away from the infantry team of a hundred people and rode out alone, pointing his war hammer at everyone from a distance.
Liu Juncai frowned: "He wants to fight in a one-on-one duel?"
"Hmm." Lin Shihao pondered for a moment, turned his head, and his eyes fell on Dong Yujun, "Senior Brother."
"Here!" Dong Yujun strode forward with a big knife in hand.
"Test the other party's quality." Lin Shihao had obviously considered a lot and did not let Lin Shiwei go up.
Dong Yujun is ranked fifteenth and is not one of the top eight demon masters.
In the team of 25 people, Dong Yujun is considered the top player in the second echelon.
This battle in front of the formation will not only test the strength of the Sand People, but also provide a reference for other students.
"Okay!" Dong Yujun leaped forward, and a fiery warhorse suddenly appeared!
"Xilulu~" The scorching-eyed colt neighed loudly, and a wave of heat spread out.
"Hiss!!!" General Shatu roared, and the warhorse under him neighed even more excitedly.
Humans, you are very sensible!
