125: Chapter 125 We had considered this beforehand

Guan Hong's voice, carrying a hint of pride, echoed in Lin Xiao's mind as he swept his gaze over the slightly agitated Elders and benefactors beside him.

A satisfied smile appeared on Lin Xiao's face.

Given the experience of these Elders and benefactors, they likely would not have agreed so easily to such an abrupt wager.

Unfortunately, under the influence of the Law of Fate, they not only had no thoughts of refusal at this moment, but were instead scrambling to agree, as if afraid he would go back on his word if they were too late.

[It seems it is time to buy some Divine Artifacts for Guan Hong and Jiang Meng; this type of special Law is truly useful at critical moments.]

Even Principal Li Qingyun, who was of the third rank, did not notice the slightest anomaly at this moment, as he was not the target of the influence.

Seeing that these Elders and benefactors had no objections, the two parties formally reached the wager under his witness.

With the goal achieved, Guan Hong quietly dissipated the influence of the Law. Looking at the wager in their hands, those Elders and benefactors suddenly felt a sense of unease in their hearts.

Had they been too impulsive? Even if they really wanted to agree, they should have negotiated for more favorable conditions with the other party.

Instead of following the other party's wishes completely, as they were doing now?

Until this moment, when the influence of fate dissipated from them, these Elders and benefactors still did not notice anything amiss.

And this was the terrifying aspect of special Laws!

Not long after their wager was completed, a flying boat passed the school's verification and slowly descended onto the examination grounds.

Elders from various Families walked down, leading a group of demigods locked in shackles.

"I hope I have not delayed everyone's examination time for too long."

Looking at those ten shackled alien demigods, how could Principal Li Qingyun not know that all of this was within the other party's calculations?

"According to the examination regulations, candidates can choose one-on-three, one-on-five, or one-on-ten based on their own strength.

Different examination standards lead to different final examination results. Young Friend Lin, what is your choice?"

Hearing this, Lin Xiao deliberately revealed a look of sighing on his face.

"Let's start with one-on-three; I'm afraid my Believers won't be able to handle too many."

"Prodigy mode, the first match: Student Lin, at the Divine Being level, will battle three alien demigods. During the examination, all seized resources belong to the candidate.

The candidate may use all legitimate means to complete the examination. If a dangerous situation arises during the examination, I, as the Principal, will immediately intervene to terminate this examination.

Does candidate Lin Xiao clearly understand and have no objections to the above examination conditions?"

"The student clearly understands and has no objections. I will trouble you, Principal."

Nodding at Lin Xiao, Principal Li Qingyun waved his hand, and a gentle force carried him away from the spot. The three aliens in the arena also disappeared along with Lin Xiao.

The previous candidates had already been pulled out of the Divine Kingdom; due to the change in the examination mode this time, everyone lacked the courage that Lin Xiao possessed.

Therefore, Lin Xiao was the only one participating in the examination this time.

When Lin Xiao's vision cleared, a towering giant city appeared before him! The city walls alone were over ten meters high, and countless runes covered the entire wall like vines.

The originally earthen and stone-structured walls now gave a feeling of being indestructible.

Outside, Principal Li Qingyun watched the screen. He glanced at the Elders and benefactors beside him and secretly gave an evaluation in his heart: Shameless!

"It really is difficult for everyone to put so much effort into the examination, even reinforcing the city with the dual Laws of Metal and Earth.

If I am not mistaken, those runes should be part of the Golden Core Realm Formation, the Eight-Gate Golden Lock Formation, right?

With such an impregnable city, I fear that even Believers of the Qi Refining Realm would be unable to cause the slightest damage to the city walls, right?"

The group of Elders and benefactors acted as if they did not hear the special meaning in the Principal's words, each wearing a humble smile on their faces.

"Hehe, after all, it is a Prodigy mode examination. This concerns not only the candidate and you, Principal, but also our entire Anping County.

If the examination lineup is too casual, the higher-ups might inevitably suspect our county of cheating if they discover it.

We do this for the reputation of the County Magistrate and the Principals. After all, you know, Principal, such arrangements cost a significant amount of resources."

"Then I truly have troubled you all to spend so much."

"In order to reward Young Friend Lin, these minor expenses are not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning."

Principal Li Qingyun did not engage in any more verbal sparring with them, looking at the distant screen with a trace of worry on his face.

Looking at the towering city wall in front of him, Lin Xiao was not polite. With a wave of his hand, five star destroyers appeared in mid-air.

Under the Prodigy mode, the steps of exploration and searching were directly skipped. Lin Xiao only needed to destroy the city in front of him and the alien Believers within it.

He would pass this stage if he did so. The moment the star destroyers appeared, they began charging. Five blinding rays of light quickly condensed, and a moment later, a rumbling, earth-shaking sound was heard.

The city under attack in front of him was completely undamaged. There wasn't even a mark on the city wall. Seeing this, a look of interest appeared on Lin Xiao's face.

[This city wall is quite sturdy; five starships could not break through the defense. There isn't even a scratch? The other party really put in some effort.]

Outside the school at this moment, the group of parents were all shocked to see this scene on the big screen.

"My God, what kind of Materials are these city walls made of? The attacks from those big guys turned the surroundings into a vacuum, yet the target city wall is completely unscathed?"

"Is this the so-called Prodigy examination? Goodness, with this level of city defense, how could a Divine Being possibly break it? Isn't this intentionally making it impossible to pass?"

"Hey, let me share a useless piece of trivia. Those big guys are called star destroyers. Just one shot like that requires 100,000 divine power points! In other words, just that one moment, Lord Lin consumed a full 500,000 divine power points, and yet the city wall didn't even lose a layer of skin."

"Are you sure you didn't get the unit wrong? 500,000 divine power points, not faith points? Goodness, is this even a battle? Isn't this just throwing money into the water?"

"Is this how high-ranking gods fight? Starting off with 500,000 divine power points; they really don't treat divine power points as money. If my Family had that many divine power points, I wouldn't dare let my child take this damn Prodigy mode exam. Isn't this just a money pit?"

In the front row of the audience, the group of Elders and benefactors cursed inwardly when they saw Lin Xiao ignoring martial ethics and directly pulling out 5 star destroyers.

Whose examination is like this? Opening with 500,000 divine power points; even if you have resources, you shouldn't waste them like this, right?

After cursing internally, they felt a wave of lingering fear and relief. Fortunately, they had invested heavily this time; just the reinforcement of a few cities had consumed the entire Divine Power of four gods, and they had even replenished their Divine Power several times during the process.

Fortunately, it was all worth it; otherwise, that kid really would have found a loophole.

"Hehe, whether it is the ordinary examination or the Prodigy examination, it is ultimately to test the comprehensive strength of the candidate's Believers. Young Friend Lin using star destroyers right from the start, and five of them at that, somewhat breaks the rules. Fortunately, we had considered this, so the examination did not become a joke."
