Battling Records of the Chosen One Chapter 139

Before the monthly assessment began, Young Ke and Fatty Middle-aged had already stood outside the assessment area. Their eyes fell unintentionally or intentionally on one of the arenas.

“This bet is… really funny,” Fatty Middle-aged looked slightly different.

“It’s ridiculous. She’s the only one who can do such a thing!” Young Ke frowned and a hint of anger appeared on her delicate face.

Even now, she could not forgive Young Man.

“Don’t be so sure. Lin Xun has been with Old Mo these days. Maybe Young Man just saw some possibility so she made such a bet regardless,” Fatty Middle-aged gently pacified her.

“Old Mo?” Young Ke’s face became colder. “If he dared to help Lin cheat, I will punish him first!”

Fatty Middle-aged were worried that Young Ke obviously hated Young Man so much and the attitude of Young Ke towards Young Man could not be easily changed.

He said helplessly, “You have no confidence in Lin Xun at all?”

Young Ke was in a daze, kept quiet for a moment and said, “I believe he can pass the monthly assessment. But do you believe that he will be the first one who kills the Barbarian Soldier?”

Fatty Middle-aged thought carefully about it and eventually smiled bitterly; he said with uncertainty, “Maybe…a miracle will happen?”

Young Ke frowned and glanced coldly at him, “You don’t believe it either, so why you come to persuade me? In my opinion, the miracle you just said c…”

Before she finished her words, Young Ke was suddenly stunned when she saw the scene at the distant arena.

Almost at the same time, Fatty Middle-aged’s body was stiff, and a horrible light burst out of his small eyes.

The arena where Lin Xun stood was covered with a spatter of fantastic silver arrow rain!

It was like a firework show, as mysterious as the stars, as dazzling as snow, spreading a kind of breathtaking beauty in the air.

That kind of beauty eclipsed the world, and made the soul drown!

In this moment, Young Ke and Fatty Middle-aged forgot to breathe, seeing this beautiful but powerful arrow rain! Both of them were in a trance.

It was easy for them to find out that all this was rooted in the seemingly unimpressive crossbow in Lin Xun’s hand.

But they just could not figure out how this crossbow could release such fantastic but terrible power.

Ding!

A miraculous wave made a sound and Young Ke and Fatty Middle-aged suddenly came to their senses. They looked at that arena where the light curtain had disappeared, and found that Lin Xun stood alone there.

At Lin Xun’s feet, lay Fire Barbarian Bafu, whose body was riddled with bowl-sized bloody holes, especially on his face was also a smooth and orderly bloody hole. This scene was so terrifying and numbed people.

In addition, more than twenty sharp arrows with silver luster were inserted into different positions of the arena, emitting chilling light.

This scene shocked Fatty Middle-aged. He murmured, “Has it been only less than five seconds since the assessment began?”

“Three seconds,” Young Ke said two words in a low voice and looked odd.

For a moment, both of them were silent. It only took three seconds to kill a barbarian soldier! They knew what it meant.

“Isn’t that a miracle?” Fatty Middle-aged was in a daze.

Young Ke was speechless.

…

In the temporary central camp.

Shu Sanqi looked at the optical screens which showed the scenes of the major assessment areas. His eyes had been locked on the assessment areas of camps 7, 15, 22 and 31.

More specifically, he had been watching several trainees, including Bai Lingshi, Zhao Yin, Zhangsun Heng, and Lee Duxing.

He would take a look at the optical screen of Camp 39 for Lin Xun occasionally. He showed slightly different while watching Lin Xun.

Until the beginning of the quarterly assessment, Shu Sanqi suddenly turned his head and looked at Young Man next to him. She seemed calm, but in a flash, Shu Sanqi found she was not as unperturbed as she looked.

At least Young Man’s clenched fists and slightly widened pupils had showed that she was extremely nervous at this moment.

This made Shu Sanqi sigh secretly, “Why worry yourself sick?”

Ding!

Suddenly, an optical screen rippled. Shu Sanqi was heartened that someone had killed his opponent just after the beginning bell.

But when he saw clearly the first trainee who killed the barbarian soldier, Shu Sanqi’s expression suddenly became weird. How could it be him?

At that moment, Young Man was stunned. She rubbed her eyes hard until she was sure that all this was true. She could not help laughing in high spirit, her eyebrows were dancing with pleasure, and she almost jumped up.

“Chief Shu, I won!” Young Man spoke out this simple sentence with indescribable excitement and joy. Her eyes were shining.

Shu Sanqi was also shocked for a while. His fingertip slightly slid the optical screen. The scene that Lin Xun killed the barbarian just now reappeared in front of him.

The sudden arrow rain was just like the stars dancing in the sky. The silver arrows illuminated the whole arena, with a kind of unparalleled dreamlike beauty.

Even Shu Sanqi who had always been poised could not help but be in a daze in this moment. While Young Man showed her fascination with this beautiful weapon!

Soon, Shu Sanqi regained his composure and said after remaining silence for a moment, “It’s not an empire-made crossbow in the camp.”

Young Man nodded, “Yes, it is not, but Old Man didn’t help Lin Xun cheat as he hasn’t had the ability to make such a beautiful and terrible crossbow yet.”

Young Man then told Shu Sanqi about Lin Xun’s Meteors Crossbow and Starry-frost Arrows.

Shu Sanqi tried hard to digest this information for a long time before he said, “It seems that Old Mo was right. Lin Xun’s mentor should be an extraordinary guru.”

Saying this, he could not help glancing at Young Man, “Since you knew all this, why didn’t you tell me in advance?”

Young Man responded by asking, “If I told you guys in advance, which of you would bet with me then?”

Shu Sanqi was speechless at the time and sighed with emotion. Over the years, Young Man hadn’t changed her characteristics. Was it really good for her to be always unconventional?

Then Young Man asked, “Chief Shu, is this not cheating, right?”

Shu Sanqi shook his head, “There is no rule in the camp to forbid trainees to make their own spiritual instruments.”

Young Man felt relaxed completely at once. She raised her white chin and laughed proudly, “It only took Lin Xun three seconds to kill the barbarian soldier. Who can compete with my little handsome boy in this camp?”

Shu Sanqi frowned, “Although this action does not violate the rules of the camp, he ultimately won without honor since he used such a powerful weapon. The camp will not allow similar things to happen again from now on!”

Young Man said with a disapproving smile, “Should I tell Lin Xun that a miracle he inadvertently created forced Chief Shu to revise the rules in the camp temporarily? It’s a glory that ordinary people can’t achieved.”

Shu Sanqi stared at her and when he was about to say something more, another tinkling sounded. There was a ripple on another optical screen.

Someone killed a barbarian soldier!

When Shu Sanqi and Young Man looked together at the screen, they saw it was Bai Lingshi of Camp 7.

“Thirty-six seconds, this achievement is enough to make one stand out from the crowd and feel proud in the past, even better than your score in that year, Chief Shu; unfortunately, this girl can only be a foil for my handsome boy.”

Young Man laughed with complacency.

“That’s the real fighting capacity.” Shu Sanqi said coldly, “Without Meteors Crossbow, how could Lin Xun achieve this score?”

“That’s not right, Chief Shu. Can the imperial army fight against those Voodoo-barbarians if they don’t wear spiritual equipment?” Young Man frowned.

Shu Sanqi became unhappy at once, “The ultimate pursuit for practitioners is individual strength, not the power of external things. If they blindly pursue and rely on the power of external things, it is no different from giving up the original purpose and running after the less important things.”

Young Man curled her lips. She knew there was no point in refuting.

Ding! Ding Ding Ding…

In the following time, the optical screens began to ripple frequently, which represented that more and more trainees smoothly killed their opponents and passed the examination.

There were also some trainees who failed, because their life was in danger and they were rescued in time.

Scenes of victory and defeat were rapidly unfolding on different arenas in every combat zone.

Shu Sanqi kept a close eye on the optical screens and went to watch some battle records from time to time. The existence of the Bloodthirsty Camp was to single out the most powerful young elites for the empire. As the chief instructor of the Bloodthirsty Camp, Shu Sanqi must learn and study all information of every trainee.

Young Man had regained her composure, with her armed folded over her chest, thinking quickly about how to give vent to her anger on the guys who teased or satirized her for the bet.

Shortly afterwards, a drillmaster rushed in the tent, glanced at Young Man and said, “Sister Young Man, it seems that you are very unhappy now. What’s wrong? Did you lose the bet? Don’t be sad, victory and defeat are both common in battle.”

Young Man snorted coldly, with her expression impervious.

The drillmaster laughed and said, “Chief Shu, is Bai Lingshi of Camp 7 the winner?”

Shu Sanqi shook his head, with a weird look.

“What!” the drillmaster was shocked and widened his eye. “With the score of thirty-six seconds, she is not the No. 1?” he cried. “Who would that be? Zhao Yin? Zhangsun Heng or Lee Duxing?”

Shu Sanqi frowned and said, “Please calm down. When the assessment is over, I will announce the result.”

The drillmaster’s expression changed and he remained silent.

A moment later, the drillmaster of Camp 22 rushed over and asked anxiously, “Chief Shu, is Zhao Yin of Camp 22 the winner this time?”

Shu Sanqi shook his head again.

Suddenly, the drillmaster of Camp 22 was staring and stunned also.

Things like this kept happening in the following period. Young Man really wanted to reveal the answer immediately to give a severe blow to these guys’ pride.

But she eventually held her horses. She even tightened her face since here had not gathered all drillmasters yet. She wouldn’t reveal the final winner at this point because she wanted to give a blow to more guys.
