Practical Assessment Begins

Chapter 76 Practical Assessment Begins

Soon, the results of the first two rounds of assessments were all released, and the list of contestants who could participate in the next round of practical assessments appeared on the big screen at the foot of Danggu Mountain.

"Wow, 9527 candidates passed the first two rounds, and two-thirds of them are from Lingxi City. Is that even possible?"

Bai Qi glanced at the list on the screen and couldn't help but smack his lips.

No wonder Old Man Qin insisted on taking first place; it's clear he's already given up on the lower-end market.

However, the beast tamers in Lingxi City are a bit too ambitious, with each of them achieving such exaggerated results.

"Attention all candidates, the third round of practical assessment will officially begin at 1 p.m. Please prepare accordingly."

"The practical assessment this time is a wilderness survival training. A large number of ferocious beasts have been released into Danggu Mountain in advance, which poses a certain threat, but also hides a lot of resources."

"According to the assessment regulations, all resources acquired by the candidates during this training period belong to them."

Resources belong to the test takers themselves? Is there really such a good thing?

Bai Qi's eyes lit up upon hearing this. With Husky as their dog-shaped radar, wouldn't they be able to squander all the resources in Danggu Mountain?

Moreover, he had just obtained a new secret realm, which he could use to store resources.

Tsk, I have a feeling that Old Man Qin deliberately gave me the secret realm ring at this time.

……

Achoo!

Inside the testing room, Chairman Qin suddenly sneezed for no apparent reason, looking somewhat puzzled.

On such a hot day, I suddenly sneezed. Which rascal was thinking about me?

President Qin glanced at the map showing the resources and distribution of ferocious beasts in Danggu Mountain, a thoughtful look flashing in his eyes.

I wonder how far these little guys will ultimately go.

……

Time passed quickly, and Bai Qi received his own exclusive mission.

To fully assess the abilities of each candidate, the association will develop targeted tasks based on the pets demonstrated in the first round of assessments.

task:

A: Hunt a Lightfeathered Sparrow.

B: Collect a piece of mine ore.

C: Hunt a steel-scaled snake.

This shows they have no intention of leaving anyone a way out.

Lightfeather Sparrow and Thunder Ore—this isn't a matter of whether we can defeat them or find them; it's that we never intended to let Alpha, this undead creature, get close.

Especially thunder ore, this type of ore is sure to be guarded by ferocious beasts, and its attribute is probably also thunder, which is too obvious.

As for the Steelscale Serpent, this creature lives underground year-round and dislikes fighting. Unless Bai Qi has the ability to burrow underground, it is generally impossible to find.

Who was the unscrupulous person who devised such an obviously targeted task? No wonder Gao Cheng has failed the exam for several years in a row.

However, Bai Qi wasn't too worried. These tasks were only aimed at Alpha and had no impact on the Husky. In fact, it could be said that these three tasks were basically a freebie for the Husky.

Having two pets with different attributes is definitely a good thing.

"After the assessment begins, complete the tasks first, and then start collecting resources."

Bai Qi set out a general plan, and then, under the guidance of the examiner, entered Danggu Mountain.

Because of the large number of ferocious beasts that have been placed there, the atmosphere inside Danggu Mountain is quite different from that around Taize Lake, giving people the feeling of entering a primeval forest.

In fact, given the size of Danggu Mountain, it's not much different from the primeval forest of Bai Qi's previous life.

Looking at the gloomy forest ahead, Bai Qi couldn't help but shiver and immediately summoned his two pets.

"Alpha, you stay by my side and protect me. Beta, you go and search for these targets."

Bai Qi told the husky about the three mission objectives, but the husky looked very reluctant.

woof!woof!

(I've been engrossed in studying lately and haven't had time for these little things.)

Upon hearing this, Bai Qi's smile widened, and he said, "Do you believe I'll strip you of all your tools right now?"

Huh?

(Did I just speak?)

Bai Qi patted the husky and told the two pets about the tasks and benefits of this assessment.

"The practical assessment will continue until 6 a.m. tomorrow. All the resources we find during this time will belong to us. If we are late, we won't get any."

Upon hearing Bai Qi's words, the husky immediately understood, its expression suddenly turning fierce, and it barked wildly at the Danggu Mountain in front of it.

He's got all the resources here; he said even a legend couldn't take them away!

Seeing the husky's appearance, Bai Qi nodded in satisfaction, while Alpha remained somewhat bewildered.

gala gala

(Resources, are they edible?)

Although Alpha's intelligence is increasing, it is mainly reflected in combat. Its comprehension in other aspects is almost zero, and it cannot understand why its beast tamer and husky are so excited.

"So, where should we begin our exploration?"

Bai Qi looked around and saw only wisps of deep mist, unable to discern his location.

To avoid conflicts too early, staff members used flying-type beasts to send the candidates to different locations before the assessment.

"Let's follow the mountain road all the way to the top, the resources at the highest point are definitely the best."

Bai Qi looked at the mountain peaks that were faintly visible beyond the mist and urged the husky to move forward quickly.

"Beta, remember to keep an eye out for resources along the way, and whatever level they may be."

Since there's a secret space available, we can store as much as we want; why not take it?

Wang Wang!

Before the two pets and the person had gone far, the husky started barking wildly ahead, and Alpha instantly went into battle mode.

"What, are there enemies?"

Bai Qi nervously looked around. The fog was still very thick. If they were attacked by some poisonous beast, these two would be fine, but he would be in trouble.

Huh?

(The enemy? Didn't you tell me to find resources?)

The husky gave Bai Qi a disdainful look, then darted up a big tree, cut off a white flower, and brought it to Bai Qi.

[Name]: God flower

[Introduction]: Medicinal herbs, which can be used to make Heavenly Water.

It's amazing that such a wonderful thing could be found, but unfortunately there's no recipe, and he can't concoct the Heavenly Water himself.

Bai Qi put the Celestial Flower into the secret realm and was about to praise the husky when he discovered that the husky was digging for something under the big tree where the Celestial Flower had been found.

Has it found another resource? This perception ability is just too abnormal.

Seeing the husky's appearance, Bai Qi's eyes lit up, and he felt even more certain that contracting the husky was the right thing to do.

However, when Bai Qi saw the husky take out a stone engraved with explosive runes and bury it in the deep pit, his eyes couldn't help but twitch.

"Beta, what are you trying to do?"

Wang Wang!

(Make a mark, what if you get lost?)

"Then why use explosive runes as markings? Don't you all rely on urine?"

Awooo...

(As a knowledgeable wolf, marking with urine is too unseemly; I can't do it!)
