Chapter 181 - Battle of the Dark Horses
However, these Ultimate Breaking Finger cards were actually very scammy.
The card he obtained had a number 19 on it. This meant that he did not just have to collect 50 gray cards, but 50 different cards with different numbers.
In this way, it was unknown how many demon beasts Zhou Hao would have to kill to collect all 50 gray cards.
In an extremely distant place from Zhou Hao, Ji Yufan had also killed many demon beasts.
Ji Yufan snorted coldly at the surrounding gray cards.
The Ultimate Breaking Finger was undoubtedly a very good secret technique, but the cultivation requirements were too harsh.
With the physique of an ordinary martial artist, many simply could not reach the minimum threshold for cultivation. Even Ji Yufan was unable to reach it!
Ji Yufan naturally disdained a secret technique that was impossible to cultivate.
In Ji Yufan’s opinion, this gray card might be a part of the assessment. Perhaps the instructor wanted to see if there were any idiots who would be distracted by collecting such things.
What Ji Yufan did not know was that there were others more capable than him and were able to refine such a technique.
The appearance of the Ultimate Breaking Finger made the boring ranking trial even more fun for Zhou Hao.
historical
There were many demon beasts around, but the small gray cards were not easy to obtain.
Zhou Hao had already killed many demon beasts along the way, but he only had three gray cards in his hand.
Most of the other students had the same attitude as Ji Yufan.
Many students had heard of the famous Ultimate Breaking Finger, but it was useless to them.
Cultivating the Ultimate Breaking Finger was very taxing on the body. The result of many martial artists forcefully cultivating the Ultimate Breaking Finger was that their entire right arm would be completely crippled.
If any other secret techniques were to appear in this place, the others might be excited. However, most of the students were already disappointed after finding out all the cards were Ultimate Breaking Finger cards.
Hiss..
A sound of vegetation shaking rang out. Then, a black shadow flashed. It was a huge python that wanted to swallow Zhou Hao.
The smelly snake saliva in the Black Scale Python’s mouth seemed very realistic.
Just as the python was about to bite, Zhou Hao stepped to the side.
This step was neither too much nor too little. It was simply perfect.
He perfectly dodged the Black Scale Python’s attack without spending any effort.
Crack!
Before the Black Scale Python could understand why its attack had missed, Zhou Hao had already flipped his hand and sliced off its head.
After the Black Scale Python died, a gray card appeared where it died.
Zhou Hao casually put the gray card away and continued forward.
Along the way, Zhou Hao killed all the demon beasts he encountered no matter what level they were.
After killing many demon beasts, his ranking also easily rose to the fifth place.
Zhou Hao did not have much of a reaction to the rankings, but the other students were all dumbfounded.
“What’s going on? Zhou Hao is ranked fifth?”
A student fought a fierce battle with a demon beast for a long time. After dealing with the demon beast in front of him, he discovered that Zhou Hao was ranked fifth. He immediately felt as uncomfortable as if he had eaten a dead rat.
Zhou Shen knew that Zhou Hao was the weakest among them. However, Zhou Hao’s current ranking was higher than theirs. It was simply humiliating!
In an instant, most of the students’ fighting spirit was aroused.
Previously, when they fought the demon beasts, they had to evaluate the pros and cons.
Now, everyone no longer cared. They started seizing every opportunity to kill demon beasts.
“Hmph! We were only holding back just now. Now that we’re serious, how can Zhou Hao keep his fifth place?”
A student said disdainfully. Even now, he clearly did not realize the seriousness of the problem.
There were also many people who had the same naive thoughts as this student. However, they would soon feel despair.
After a while, everyone realized that the rankings had indeed changed.
However, what was shocking was that not only was Zhou Hao not pushed to the back, but he even directly rose to the fourth place!
The current first place was Xu Ling, and the second place was Ji Yufan. However, Xu Ling and Ji Yufan’s points were very close. The two would often surpass one another.
The student ranked third was called Lu Zhan. His previous performance was very ordinary, and not many people even recognized him.
However, in the month since he arrived at the fortress base, Lu Zhan’s improvement was clearly incomparably huge. At this moment, he had also suddenly risen up and became an extremely terrifying dark horse.
In addition, Lu Zhan was a battle maniac to begin with. After entering the virtual cabin, he directly let himself go. All the demon beasts he encountered along the way were mercilessly killed by him.
“What’s going on? Zhou Hao is actually in fourth place!”
Many students were shocked and found it unbelievable.
“That’s strange. Could it be that this guy has found a group of low-level demon beasts and is now killing them continuously to obtain points?”
A student thought of a possibility, and that was that the low-level demon beasts around Zhou Hao were extremely abundant. The difficulty of killing these low-level demon beasts was not much harder than crushing an ant.
This student predicted that it was also in such a situation that Zhou Hao could keep killing these low-level demon beasts and accumulate points crazily.
These students were already very envious and jealous of Zhou Hao, so they naturally thought of this possibility.
Many people even planned to “imitate” Zhou Hao’s shameless behavior of grinding points.
In any case, as long as one did not violate the rules, everything was reasonable.
However, they didn’t know that the way Zhou Hao was accumulating points was not something they could imitate.
