I Am Not The Machine King - Chapter 26
Chapter 26: Five-minute Battle! (III)
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
There was a huge gap between a level two and level three martial artist. Lin Yuan had achieved his tactical goal by forcing the examiner to use his full strength!
“Once I get close, I’ll have a natural advantage.”
Lin Yuan thought very clearly. The spirit iron spear in his hand kept stabbing at Zhou Tianyuan!
This battle was actually not fair because both sides had different identities.
Zhou Tianyuan was the examiner, and Lin Yuan was the examinee.
Lin Yuan’s advantage was that he dared to attack the examiner with all his strength.
However, Zhou Tianyuan did not dare to attack Lin Yuan with all his strength!
For a level two martial artist yet to advance to Body Tempering Realm, if Zhou Tianyuan could not control his spirit energy properly in close combat, it was very likely that Lin Yuan would be seriously injured!
“Four minutes!”
Lin Yuan muttered in his heart and used all his strength at the same time.
Zhou Tianyuan’s eagle-like ice claws clawed at Lin Yuan’s arm, leaving bloody marks on Lin Yuan’s arm.
The waves of pain coming from his arm made Lin Yuan let out a muffled groan.
The three bloody marks on his arm also shocked Zhou Tianyuan, and he withdrew some of his strength.
However, Lin Yuan’s Basic Martial Arts, as well as his judgment and reaction in close combat, were fully displayed in this battle.
Lin Yuan’s nerves reacted in an instant. He quickly shook off Zhou Tianyuan and pulled a distance away from him.
At the same time, he turned the spear into a rod. The strongest power was completely condensed and he swung it at Zhou Tianyuan’s face. The rhythm of the attack did not seem like a level two martial artist!
“He can still react?”
Zhou Tianyuan released an ice wall to block the strike. He was extremely shocked.
…
During the months of preparing for the martial arts exam, Lin Yuan trained and fought with Wu Di, a speed-type lightning-type martial artist, almost every day.
Although he had been defeated by Wu Di countless times, Lin Yuan’s mental reaction and his ability to adapt to fast-paced battles had improved tremendously!
In terms of speed in close combat, Zhou Tianyuan was not as fast as Wu Di!
“How long has it been!”
“4 minutes 35…”
“F*ck…”
There were not many examinees watching from below the fighting ring, but the shock in their hearts was indescribable.
They kept looking at the time beside the fighting ring. There were less than 30 seconds left in the five-minute battle time!
The more Zhou Tianyuan fought, the weaker his attacks became.
As the examiner, Zhou Tianyuan did not want to fight with the examinees to determine the winner.
Once he attacked with his full strength, Lin Yuan would definitely find it hard to defend and he would be easily injured.
Through the entire battle, Lin Yuan’s score was already known to Zhou Tianyuan.
“Beep beep beep…”
Five minutes finally arrived. As the bell rang for the end of the battle, Zhou Tianyuan also took the initiative to withdraw from the battle area.
“Hu…”
“Hu…”
Lin Yuan, who had almost used up all of his spirit energy, half-squatted on the fighting ring and panted heavily.
This battle had brought his combat ability to the extreme.
Every time they collided, Zhou Tianyuan’s casual attack would be blocked with his full strength.
The high intensity of the fight made his hands go soft, and blood oozed out from the wounds on his arms.
Zhou Tianyuan looked at Lin Yuan with surprise and doubt.
He was thinking, how could there be such a martial artist in this world?
“276 points.”
“No wonder.”
After the fight, the examiner went straight back to the resting area.
When he read Lin Yuan’s information again, he finally understood why Lin Yuan could get such a high score in the first five tests!
“Excellent combat reading ability.”
“Accurate judgment.”
“Combat ability that is beyond the realm.”
“Terrifying…”
Zhou Tianyuan sighed and decisively pressed for a full score of 25 points.
In his opinion, Lin Yuan had already exceeded the limit of what he could imagine for a martial artist with ten meridians.
Moreover, Lin Yuan was only 24 points away from the special recruitment line of 300 points.
Zhou Tianyuan would not let such a genius martial artist be buried just because of one or two points!
After Zhou Tianyuan got off the fighting ring, Lin Yuan quickly picked up all the mechanized bolts that he had shot.
A single black gold mechanized bolt was worth tens of thousands of yuan. Lin Yuan was not rich to such an extent.
After Zhou Tianyuan pressed the full score, Lin Yuan’s report card in the card slot flashed. The sixth test was officially over, and Lin Yuan’s martial arts exam was officially over!
Candidate name: Lin Yuan
Candidate number: 210-2210
Major: Mechanical-type
Spirit Energy Test: 89.59
Strength Test: 46.19
Speed Test: 41.09
Spirit Seed Test: 50.00
Combat Test: 50.00
Examiner Test: 25.00
Total score: 301.87
Even Lin Yuan clenched his fists and was excited when he got the final result.
“Let’s start from here.”
Lin Yuan’s eyes shone with extreme confidence as he slowly left the martial arts examination hall that he had prepared for a long time!
The first mountain in front of him was crossed just like that!
“He actually lasted for five minutes in the Examiner Test…”
The other examinees who were preparing for the test watched Lin Yuan leave Arena No. 10 as if they were watching a monster.
One of the examinees from Qingshan Diyi Middle School couldn’t calm down for a long time.
It was hard to say whether it would have a positive or negative effect on the examinees after witnessing such a battle.
However, the continuous five-minute battle had consumed a lot of Zhou Tianyuan’s energy.
He could use eight minutes to recover his spirit energy after finishing off the examinees in the first two minutes.
However, Lin Yuan’s move only gave him four to five minutes to recover. Soon, the examinees stepped onto the fighting ring at 17:20.
Even if a level three martial artist had opened xiumen, his recovery ability was not that exaggerated.
When he stepped onto the fighting ring again for the assessment, Zhou Tianyuan was not in his best condition because of this five-minute battle.
…
The martial arts examination recording desk.
After all the categories of the martial arts exam had been completed, all the examinees would register their report cards here. This would be considered as officially completing all the tests of the Martial Arts College Entrance Examination.
After a few rechecks, Lin Yuan submitted the report card and signed his name.
“Lin Yuan, score 301.87, confirmed.”
Click.
With the report card officially inserted into the College Entrance Examination result recorder, Lin Yuan’s Martial Arts College Entrance Examination officially ended!
“Hu…”
…
Outside the school, at the rest area of Qingshan Diyi Middle School.
A few teachers were fervently discussing Qingshan Diyi Middle School’s excellent results so far.
There were very few level three martial artists, so its overall assessment speed was the fastest.
Before 5 p.m., all the assessments had been completed.
Jiang Yining, Lu Kai, Pei Xi, and Wu Di all had excellent results.
Lu Kai’s martial arts score had even reached 345 points. He was very likely to be the champion of this year’s Martial Arts College Entrance Examination!
After the level 3 martial artists obtained good results, the school’s attention naturally fell on the level 2 martial artists who were at the level of the top five academies.
Combined with liberal arts results, a few teachers would nod their heads in satisfaction whenever there was an examinee who had a total score of more than 365 points.
The better the results this year, they would be able to use the results to advertise.
“There shouldn’t be any changes in the ranking of the first eight.”
“Yup.”
The top eight in the martial arts examination were the eight level three martial artists of Diyi Middle School.
It was completely unrealistic for the eleven-meridians martial artists to surpass this result.
Just as the teachers were discussing happily, one of them pressed the refresh button.
Suddenly, a name called Lin Yuan rushed to the front!
