I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second

Chapter 44: Chapter 44: Reaching the Top! The Shocked Dongjiang Geniuses!

”Isn’t this a bit too difficult?”

”The health isn’t much, but the defense and magic resistance are set too high!”

In the exam center, as the exam began, countless eyes were fixed on the big screen.

And at this moment, the screen showed the most famous youngsters, those most likely to top the college entrance examination in Dongjiang Province.

Lan Ruoyi was prominently among them.

Besides her, there were over twenty other candidates from different examination halls who also reached Level 29 and chose the Inferno difficulty.

Suffice it to say, these individuals had likely already booked their spots in the top 20 of Dongjiang Province for this college entrance exam.

Other candidates opting for the Nightmare difficulty might turn out to be dark horses.

”The basic damage of 1st-level professional skills isn’t high, at most just over a hundred.”

”And without the allowance to wear equipment, their attribute bonuses won’t be high, so for general professionals, skills that might deal a hundred or two damage on paper would only deal a dozen or so to this Goblin.”

People put themselves in these candidates’ perspectives.

In the first transition, without equipment, potion effects, or buffs.

Breaking defense would be difficult.

In the end, it might really just be like scratching an itch.

Li Yuanjing chuckled lightly, ”Otherwise, do you think why this difficulty level was ultimately vetoed by me and not used in the formal assessments anymore?”

Qi Guoguang, sitting beside him, carefully scanned the big screen but didn’t catch sight of Lin Yi.

”Where’s that Level 42 kid?”

Reminded by him, Li Yuanjing then realized Lin Yi’s dungeon scene wasn’t on the big screen.

At this moment, an employee responsible for broadcasting dungeon scenes quickly reported, ”Report! Our Spirit Crystal System broadcasts scenes automatically according to a certain logic.”

”Currently, the logic prioritizes the rarity of these candidates’ professions.”

”Leaders, the candidate named Lin Yi you were paying attention to, we’ve assigned special personnel to retrieve his scene, expected to be screen-casted within 2 minutes!”

Li Yuanjing nodded.

Conventionally speaking, rare and uncommon professions are definitely stronger than ordinary professionals.

Therefore, having such a retrieval logic is beyond reproach.

They just needed to quietly wait for Lin Yi’s scene to appear.

Seizing the brief few dozen seconds before the first round of testing began, Li Yuanjing waved and continued to ask, ”Give me a list of those who chose Inferno difficulty this time, along with their combined level and profession rarity.”

Soon, a list was in his hand.

Among the top ten candidates, just by looking at the surnames, Li Yuanjing could basically guess which noble family they hailed from.

”Haha, isn’t the one at the top of the list your younger son?”

”You’re an archer with a rare profession, and he awakened into a legendary profession, his future is limitless!”

Qi Guoguang also received such a list.

The person at the top was named Li Zerui, none other than Li Yuanjing’s second son.

”Zerui has been somewhat lazy lately, not worth mentioning, but your granddaughter is quite something herself, haha!”

The second name on the list was Qi Xia Ying, also a legendary professional.

”Oh, Xiaying hasn’t inherited her father’s diligence at all, she’s quite lazy at home too!”

The Dongjiang Provincial Education Bureau and Professional Alliance senior officials sitting beside and behind the two big shots were all inwardly mocking.

This was way too pretentious.

Despite that, most people still watched the two on the big screen without blinking.

Because everyone knew, the most likely contenders for first place in the first round were one of these two.

The 1-minute countdown ended.

Soon, on the left side of the screen, a young boy suddenly faced a short Goblin monster.

The boy reacted quickly, his right hand lifting, and in an instant, his entire palm was plated in a layer of silver metallic shell, and then the center of his palm transformed into a cannon muzzle!

Boom!!

The next moment, a rocket blasted out from the cannon, hitting the Goblin monster and triggering a massive explosion instantly.

The Goblin’s health dropped a huge chunk, the one attack dealing around 1000 points of damage.

At 1000 double resistance, this damage was considerable.

However, it seemed that such a powerful Rocket Cannon attack required reload time, preventing frequent use.

So the muzzle on his right arm turned into a machine gun barrel.

The sound of gunfire rang out, countless dense bullets rained down on the Goblin monster.

Ripping its skin.

”Such fierce firepower!”

”Is this the Legendary Gunslinger, Alloy Modified Soldier?”

”It feels like he could defeat that Goblin using damage in less than 20 seconds!”

”Mr. Qi’s granddaughter is amazing too, look, there are already more than ten dazzling runic patterns circling around her, she’s likely waiting for a burst!”

On the big screen next to Li Zerui.

Qi Xia Ying, with a short outfit, looked valiant, her fists and feet continuously striking the Goblin monster at extreme speed.

Every ten hits, a runic pattern glowing with various elemental colors would appear around her.

Her profession is called the Battle Spirit Warrior.

Though a Mage transfer, her attack methods were practically all melee based.

Each melee attack added magic damage, and the stored runic patterns could produce various elemental effects.

Under the girl’s deliberate control, the runic patterns around her mostly glowed orange-red.

These fire-element runes would inflict a burn effect upon launching, and their damage was the highest among all elemental runic patterns.

This was the optimal choice under the assessment conditions requiring burst output and quick monster elimination.

”Both are fighting so fast!”

”Their health is down to about 70%! And only two or three seconds have passed!”

”That girl from the Lan family seems formidable too!”

Countless people watched these shining talents from Dongjiang on the screen with immense excitement.

However, the next moment, the spot on the upper right corner of the screen, initially vacant for rankings, suddenly flashed.

A name abruptly appeared.

Silencing all discussions in the exam center.

[Total Score Ranking]

[Current Test Round: First Round]

[Rank: NO.1, Candidate Lin Yi, First Round Time: 2 seconds 36, Score: 1000!]

Ah?

Everyone was dumbfounded.

They looked at the big screen where Li Zerui, Qi Xia Ying, and others frantically attacked, feeling like their CPUs were going to burn out.

What’s going on!

Why did others just hit half, and you’re already done??

Not only were the Dongjiang high-ranking officials watching in shock in the exam center,

But countless candidates desperately attacking in the first round were also taken aback!

Boom!

Another rocket blasted from Li Zerui’s right-arm cannon.

However, he missed.

Disturbed, slowed down, forgotten aim!

He was determined to get the first place in the first round.

However, he hadn’t expected that when he reached half health, someone else had already finished!
