"Crushed by the rock, naturally he would be eliminated!" Within the crowd, a rather arrogant voice sounded out. Then, a scholarly-looking youth wearing a white armour and waving a jade-green paper fan in his hands walked out.
"Young Master Kang is indeed talented, under such circumstances he is actually able to see the truth!"
"Yes, yes, he is indeed a talent in the Hidden Dragon Roll!"
Instantly, a few examinees began to flatter Kang Xingping. To many people, to be able to enter the Hidden Dragon Roll was something that was too high to reach.
After all, this represented that he was the top hundred among the youths under the age of eighteen in the Great Xia Dynasty!
"Then, will he die?" As a group of examinees brownnosed Kang Xingping, a weak looking youth, wearing a somewhat tattered body armour, asked.
The other examinees covered their mouths and laughed as they heard this.
"No, the person controlling the pocket dimension is the examiner. As long as the examiners decide that this examinee has no further ability to continue the examination, then without requiring him to crush his tablet, he would still be eliminated!" Kang Xingping's eyes also noticed the tender youth and explained very patiently.
"I see, that means that within the pocket dimension, there wouldn't be any threats to our lives?" The weak youth heard and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Not necessarily!" Kang Xingping smiled as he shook his head.
"Not necessarily?" The weak youth was confused.
"That's right. There is one circumstance which the invigilator wouldn't be able to control, and that is the fighting between the examinees. If during the fighting, someone wasn't able to crush his tablet on time and was instead killed by another person, he would definitely die!" Kang Xingping continued to smile as he spoke.
"Who would even fight in the examination?" When the examinee heard, he also began to laugh.
"That's not true, for example, I… will!" Kang Xingping looked at the weakly youth, and the smile on his face became wider and wider.
The youth was taken aback. Looking at Kang Xingping's expression, the smile on his face instantly vanished, and instantly took a step back.
"Young… Young Master Kang, we… we have no enmity against one another, you…"
"That's right, we have no enmity, but, we are rivals!" As Kang Xingping spoke, he moved the jade green paper fan on his hand and began to step towards the examinee.
"Rivals?!" The weak youth's expression changed. But, he still wasn't quite able to understand. "But, there isn't this necessity? Why must we fight among one another, isn't it better for everybody to work together?"
"Work together? Ha ha ha…" Kang Xingping smiled wilfully. He looked at the expression of the weak youth in front of him, as if he was looking at an idiot.
When the other examinees heard the weak youth mention working together, they also began to laugh. Each of them stared at the weak youth, their faces filled with ridicule.
"Some people are indeed naive!"
"It's alright, people grow wiser from each experience!"
"I believe it's someone from a random village, it is indeed difficult enough to reach this stage. Unfortunately, he doesn't even know the rules of the combat examination!"
"Don't tell me he doesn't know that there is an unchanging rule in the combat examination, that is, defeat a person to advance a stage?"
"Defeat a person to advance a stage?! Don't tell me…" The weak youth heard the discussion going on around him, and his expression instantly turned pale. He had finally understood.
This was the same as the first round of the county examination.
A knock out system!
In the first round, as long as one could defeat their opponent, they could advance a level. The capital combat examination was also the same. Even though the method and venue had changed, but the rules hadn't changed.
Hence, to be able to advance stages in this pocket dimension, there were two methods. First, pass the level in the pocket dimension. Second, defeat someone in the same stage.
Hence…
Whether to rely on one's actual strength to pass the rockfall matrix in the pocket dimension, or to directly find a weak examinee to knock him out, this choice was very simple.
Actually, it was indeed normal. The amount of people passing the capital examination was already fixed. Hence, naturally it would require a brutal competition. The strong wins, while the weak loses.
"Interesting, looks like the game can be played this way as well!" Fang Zhengzhi, who was thinking of a plan to pass the rockfall matrix, heard the discussion going around him and his eyes instantly lit up.
At this moment, Kang Xingping had already walked to the side of the weak youth. Waving the jade green fan on his hands, he looked at the expression of the weak youth as if he was looking at a sheep waiting to be killed.
The edges of Fang Zhengzhi's mouth curved into a slight smile. Just as he prepared to step forward, he released a hand from beside him reached out and blocked his path.
"I don't like his fan." Yan Xiu's expression seemed very calm, just as if he was talking about a normal hobby of his.
"So, you are going to fight?" Fang Zhengzhi turned around and looked at Yan Xiu.
"Sooner or later, I will have to fight. If we wait until the third round, we will both be targeted." Yan Xiu also looked at Fang Zhengzhi.
"Actually, they are only targeting me." When Fang Zhengzhi heard this, he understood Yan Xiu's intentions.
"Grandfather had said that we must be sincere towards our friends." Yan Xiu's expression didn't change.
"Alright, since you don't like his fan, I will give this weak one to you. I'll go and find a stronger one." Fang Zhengzhi smiled again.
"Alright." Yan Xiu nodded again.
Fang Zhengzhi didn't speak further, because, Yan Xiu had already acted. Just as Kang Xingping prepared to lash out at the weak youth, he blocked in front of the youth.
"Yan Xiu?!" Kang Xingping was slightly taken aback.
When he saw Yan Xiu suddenly appear in front of the weak youth, the expression on his face changed slightly. There were two reasons for his arrival at the River of Trust Capital this time. The first was to spread the name of literature men, and kill the number one lecher in the world in the Law of Dao examination. The second was to pass the capital Law of Dao examination.
Hence, he was apprehensive towards Yan Xiu. After all, he had already entered the first-class roll in the theory examination. Based on usual practices, all he had to do was to pass two rounds in the combat examination to be able to pass the capital examination with his overall result.
However, if he fought Yan Xiu in the first stage…
That was indeed not wise.
That was also the biggest reason why he didn't take the risk to instantly challenge Fang Zhengzhi.
It was alright to play, but not fool around.
Pass the first two rounds steadily before fighting wouldn't be too late either.
This was what Kang Xingping thought. Yan Xiu knew this, Fang Zhengzhi also knew this. Hence, Fang Zhengzhi couldn't let things go on according to the plans of everybody else.
He knew very clearly the power of Chi Guyan's criminal demand order.
He also knew even more clearly that within the crowd, there were many people who were here due to the criminal demand order. The first two rounds, they wouldn't gang up on him. But the third round was completely different.
Yan Xiu taking the initiative to start a fight naturally wasn't something everyone else could understand.
Hence, when the rest of the examinees saw this, they were indeed shocked to a certain extent. After all, he had chosen a strong opponent in the first round.
No matter how they viewed the situation, it still didn't seem wise.
"Are they going to fight?"
"Challenging Kang Xingping, number eighty in the Hidden Dragon Roll, in the first round?"
The crowd discussed spiritedly. Among the shocked, there were also some who were excited. Members of the Yan Family left home at sixteen. However, before the age of sixteen, they only stayed in the Yan residence.
Nobody had ever seen Yan Xiu fight before, and nobody knew Yan Xiu's true abilities.
...
