39: Killing monsters is as easy as drinking water, and the points lead is cliff-like!
“Pfft!”
An examiner directly spat a mouthful of water onto the face of the person next to him.
“How did he do that?!” the person asked, wiping the spit from his face.
“That must be a curse-type Aura skill!”
“A Rank 16 Ghost Swordsman, made even weaker than an old man of seventy or eighty!”
“No, haha, old people and children fly first, haha, that’s too funny!”
Wang Zhuo, on the side, stroked his graying beard, staring at the laughing examiner with a face full of black lines.
The examiner immediately reacted, quickly covering his mouth.
“Lord Wang, pfft! I... I wasn’t laughing at you!”
“You’d better not be!”
Wang Zhuo glared fiercely at the man.
Then he looked at the screen in front of him again.
“An Elite Sword Cultivator Professional actually couldn’t even touch Song Ming’s clothes, this is simply unheard of.”
“At least in the sixty-plus years since I became a Professional, I’ve never seen anything like it!”
Live broadcast for all.
001 live stream.
The two commentators sat in a daze.
They, who had been talking non-stop, were now all silent.
The live stream instantly exploded.
“Holy crap, he flew!”
“Holy crap, Zhou Tian flew up!”
“Holy crap, he’s flying so fast!”
“That’s a Ghost Swordsman, for crying out loud!”
“What’s wrong with a Ghost Swordsman? He’s still flying while showing off!”
“......”
“Holy crap, I know who that person is now, Song Ming, the first on the points leaderboard!”
......
Inside the Ancient Battlefield Space.
Song Ming looked at Zhou Tian, who had turned into a streak of light and disappeared into mid-air.
He couldn't help but nod.
It seemed his method of using the Annihilation Aura was a wise one.
Candidates were different from the monsters here.
If he could avoid killing them, he would try his best not to.
Arriving in front of the points treasure chest.
Song Ming waved his hand to break the light shield and opened the points treasure chest.
Immediately, his points increased by another thousand.
However, the expression on his face remained unchanged.
After all, the points gained from killing monsters were much higher than this.
Song Ming continued to walk forward.
He should currently be in the outer reaches of the Ancient Battlefield Space.
The strength of the monsters was relatively low.
As he continued to move deeper, the monsters he encountered would become stronger and stronger.
After walking for a while.
It was indeed as he expected.
Batches of monsters appeared within a range of fifty to sixty meters from him.
Among them were entire teams of Mage monsters and Archer monsters.
Upon discovering Song Ming, they immediately launched an attack.
The Mage monsters raised their staffs, releasing one fireball after another, each the size of a human head.
The Archer monsters also drew their bows and notched arrows, shooting out one dark arrow after another.
Song Ming only felt a scorching sensation approaching.
Looking up, nearly thirty to forty fireballs were hurtling towards his head.
Closely followed by arrows as dense as raindrops.
Seeing this, Song Ming added another Holy Shield Aura to himself.
The fireballs directly struck the shield, which glowed with a sacred light.
They then burst into a shower of sparks.
By the time all the fireballs had hit, the shield was completely unharmed.
Only its glow had dimmed slightly.
The arrows that followed also failed to break his shield.
Song Ming glanced at the Orc Warriors charging towards him.
[Unicorn Orc Warrior, Rank 16]
“It seems the direction is correct; the monsters here are generally one Rank higher than before!”
Song Ming canceled his Appraisal Technique and then unhesitatingly used Annihilation Aura.
It was like using a cannon to kill a mosquito.
Nearly twelve teams of monsters, a total of one hundred and twenty monsters.
All of them turned to ashes under the shroud of the Annihilation Aura.
Rank 16 monsters.
Killing each one would yield 80 points.
Now, Song Ming annihilated 120 with a single skill.
His points directly surged by 9600 points.
At this moment, his total points directly surpassed ten thousand, reaching 18210 points.
In the top-level space.
The examiners were completely numb.
“Dozens of Great Fireball spells, plus attacks from two teams of Archer monsters, couldn’t even break his shield?”
“Holy crap, this kid’s skill must be an area-of-effect skill!”
“No, it should be a range skill!”
“A range instant-kill skill? What’s the maximum damage?”
“I don’t know, but I estimate this is far from his limit!”
The examiners analyzed for a while but couldn't figure anything out.
They only knew that every single one of Song Ming’s skills was extremely abnormal.
“This is unscientific, where did he get such amazing skills?!”
“Maybe he awakened a talent.”
“What kind of talent could be so amazing?”
“I don’t know!”
All the examiners were speechless.
If this continued.
Song Ming would sweep through, absolutely setting a new record for the college entrance examination.
One must know that the Top National Scorer in previous years.
The highest points only approached thirty thousand.
And Song Ming had only been in there for less than half an hour, right?
The examiners looked at the points situation of the other people again.
Ranked second was Wang Heng, a Prodigy from the Wang Family, one of the four great Families of the Imperial City.
A very rare Summoner Professional.
He only had over 8000 points so far.
Ranked third was An Ran.
The daughter of An Zhentian, the Archmage of Rank 80, and the leader of the Great Xia Country’s Mage Alliance.
She only had over 5000 points.
One must know that Mages are Professionals most skilled in large-scale destructive skills.
As for the others.
There was even less need to mention them.
It was considered good luck if they weren't eliminated.
After Song Ming dealt with this batch of monsters.
He continued to advance in the direction he had chosen.
The surrounding ground became increasingly dark and muddy, and a strong smell of blood and decay emanated from it.
Song Ming sniffed.
He was clearly not accustomed to such an intense odor.
Thump.
Thump-thump-thump.
A team of cavalry monsters in heavy armor emerged from behind a pile of rocks.
Leading them was a Fallen Knight, nearly two meters tall.
With the appearance of this cavalry monster team, many melee and ranged monsters gradually gathered around, too.
All of them stared at Song Ming with predatory eyes.
Under his Appraisal Technique.
He roughly knew the Rank of these monsters.
[Fallen Knight Commander, Boss Monster, Rank 18]
[Fallen Knight, Elite Monster, Rank 17]
[Unicorn Orc Warrior, Rank 17]
[Goblin Shaman, Rank 17]
[Goblin Archer, Rank 17]
“Good luck, I actually encountered a Boss Monster!”
Song Ming withdrew his Appraisal Technique.
Just as he was about to start harvesting.
A shout suddenly came from behind.
“Brother, you can’t deal with so many monsters, do you want to team up?”
Hearing this, Song Ming turned to look.
He saw two men and one woman, three candidates, walking towards him.
The person who had just spoken stepped forward to Song Ming and introduced himself: “Hello, brother, I am the Top Scorer of Taihua Province.”
“My name is Lu Hao, and those two are also Top Scorers from other provinces.”
“We met on the road and formed a team; the efficiency of clearing monsters is higher with more people!”
The remaining two also introduced themselves:
“Hello, my name is Passerby A!”
“Hello, my name is Passerby B!”
Song Ming raised an eyebrow, pointing at the two: “Are you two siblings?”
“No!” the two answered in unison.
“Oh, then it’s fine!”
Lu Hao looked at the monsters gradually surrounding them, and excitedly said: “A Boss Monster! We might even get a points treasure chest, haha, this time we’ve hit the jackpot!”
“By the way, I haven’t asked your name, brother?”
Song Ming said: “Oh, my name is Song Ming!”
Lu Hao froze for a moment, then laughed: “Haha, what a coincidence, you actually have the same name as the guy ranked first on the leaderboard!”
Song Ming: “......”
“Holy crap, you’re really Song Ming?!” Lu Hao suddenly shouted loudly.
“Otherwise?”
“Excuse me, I’m leaving!”
Lu Hao cupped his hands and darted dozens of meters away without looking back.
Cold sweat simultaneously broke out on his forehead.
Am I out of my mind, for crying out loud?
I actually wanted to snatch the Top National Scorer’s monster!
