Chapter 933: Second Round of Assessment....
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Seeing that Shan Yue did not care at all, Ruo Ting felt humiliated. She could feel that Shan Yue did not treat her as an opponent at all, so she was especially angry. “Don’t be happy too early. The first round’s lead is nothing. There’s still the second round!”
“Oh? Really?” Shan Yue raised her eyebrows.
At this moment, Jia Yi turned to look at Shan Yue with a straight face and said coldly, “The first will only be me.”
Being sized up by Jia Yi’s malicious gaze, Shan Yue frowned. Jia Yi gave her a strange feeling, like a machine trained by humans. Although there was some emotion, she kept feeling extremely stiff.
In comparison, Ruo Ting, who could fly into a rage out of humiliation, looked much cuter.
Feeling Shan Yue’s gaze drift over again, Ruo Ting said unhappily, “I told you, I’ll definitely defeat you. Just you wait…”
Yuan Hu tugged at Ruo Ting, indicating that the virtual examiner had already appeared. Only then did Ruo Ting stop talking.
The virtual projection appeared in front of the four of them. It was still the image of the woman at the beginning. She said, “Congratulations to all the candidates for successfully passing the first round of the assessment. The second round of the assessment will use a points system. The person with the highest points will be deemed to have won and can pass the selection.
“Next, I’ll read out the rules of the second round of the assessment. First, there will be answering notes hidden everywhere in the scope of the assessment. After the candidate finds the note, fill in the answers at the virtual examiner. If you answer a question correctly, you’ll gain one point. If you answer it wrong, you’ll deduct one point. Second, the candidates’ points can be transferred to each other. There’s no limit to the number of points. Third, the second round of the assessment will end at sunset.”
After the rules were broadcast, the woman turned to Shan Yue and said, “Candidate Shan Yue performed outstandingly in the first round of the assessment and received a reward pf twenty hiding locations of the notes. It will be displayed on the portable electronic screen later.”
After the four of them tied up the electronic screens that would be used in the second round, the woman smiled and said, “Then, the assessment will officially begin in five minutes. I wish everyone good luck.”
Shan Yue opened the electronic screen and realized that the forest where the assessment was located was not far ahead. As she looked at the location of the 20 notes given on the map, she thought about why the professor group had set rule two, “Points can be transferred to each other.”
Once points could be transferred, it meant that there would be cooperation or competition. In a sense, this was also a balance between the strength of the answers. It seemed that this selection was no longer just about the knowledge storage ability of the contestants, but more about the overall quality of the contestants.
Shan Yue expected what might happen later, so she heard Yuan Hu say from behind, “Ruo Ting, let’s go together?”
“Alright.” Ruo Ting agreed readily.
Jia Yi walked quickly and brushed past Shan Yue, becoming the first to enter the forest.
Shan Yue walked unhurriedly. By the time she entered the forest, the three of them were long gone.
After observing the edge of the forest, Shan Yue realized that there were projection devices set up in the north, south, east, and west of the forest. As long as she called out, the virtual female examiner would appear and could exchange for the answers to the questions.
After Shan Yue found the 20 notes for the reward, she found the nearest virtual female examiner in the south.
“Candidate Shan Yue, the 20 answers you filled in are all correct. You can exchange them for 20 points. Do you confirm the exchange?” The virtual woman smiled at Shan Yue.
“Let’s exchange for it… Wait.” Shan Yue paused for a moment and probed, “You mean that we can exchange for it later?”
“Yes.”
Looking at the points ranking displayed on the electronic screen, Jia Yi currently had 30 points. Ruo Ting had 17 points, Yuan Hu had 15 points, and Shan Yue had 0 points.
“How long later?” Shan Yue asked again.
“You can exchange for it before the assessment ends.”
“I see. Then exchange it for me first.” Shan Yue blinked. Perhaps the additional function she had probed had other uses.
Seeing that Shan Yue’s name had increased by 20 points on the electronic screen and she had jumped to second place, Yuan Hu could not help but feel a little anxious. “What should we do? They’re both ahead of us.”
Ruo Ting plucked a piece of paper from behind a vine leaf and carefully placed it in her pocket. She said disdainfully, “What’s the use of being in the lead? We still have more than twenty pieces of paper to exchange for. At the moment, finding enough notes is the most important. In the later stages, there will only be fewer and fewer notes.”
“Alright, let’s work harder.” Only then did Yuan Hu calm down a little..
