"Subway station?"
"Such a large underground space, it feels like a high-speed rail platform."
"You can't tell from the surface, is it hollowed out underneath?" Most of the students were shocked as they got off.
Li Yuan had already watched the introductory video of the 'Moon Demon Astral Realm' and had many speculations in his mind.
Instinctively, Li Yuan looked towards Lin Lanyue not far away.
Lin Lanyue was also dressed in black soft armor and protective clothing, tall and valiant.
As if sensing Li Yuan's gaze, Lin Lanyue turned her head, gently shook it, signaling Li Yuan not to say anything.
"Board the train in order of your previous numbers," the nearby base officer said in a deep voice.
Li Yuan boarded the train, glancing around.
Professor Ming and the other second-level source martial arts teachers and officers stood far away.
It seed they had no intention of boarding the train.
...
The train moved, completely enclosed, with even the glass being opaque.
It prevented Li Yuan and the others from seeing the outside scenery.
If not for the slight vibration of the train body, they wouldn't even notice the train moving.
Each carriage had about 50 students, divided into two teams, guarded by two martial officer soldiers, one at the front and one at the back.
Suddenly.
"Whoosh~" Light gathered at the front, back, and sides of the carriage, forming a light curtain projection.
In the projection appeared the previously seen tall man in blue.
"Now, I'll announce the rules of the practical assessnt," the tall man said in a deep voice. "First, the assessnt location is a special military base. After entering and leaving, you are not allowed to inquire about or disclose any content related to the assessnt area. Violators will be considered 'spies'."
Many students were shocked.
Spies?
"Second, killing each other is not allowed during the assessnt. The entire assessnt area is monitored," the tall man said coldly. "Violators will be sentenced to death."
The students' faces showed even more shock.
Li Yuan, however, was slightly moved. The first two rules were 'punishnts'.
Is this setting the ground rules?
"Third, all astral realm creatures are constantly monitored. Therefore, as long as you kill them, the points will be recorded in real-ti on the leaderboard. You don't need to collect tokens separately, and you can check the rankings on your positioning wristbands at any ti."
"Fourth, astral realm creatures below level 10 are worth 1 point, level 10-11 are worth 10 points; level 12 are worth 50 points... If you encounter astral realm creatures above level 12, it's recomnded to run away imdiately and seek help."
"Fifth, obtaining 5 points ans passing the assessnt."
"Sixth, if you encounter danger, you can choose to seek help. Attack drones will arrive within 30 seconds... but it also ans the end of the assessnt, and points will be halved, so act within your limits."
"Seventh, the assessnt starts at 9 o'clock and lasts until 4 o'clock in the afternoon, a total of seven hours."
...
After the rules were explained, the projection disappeared, and the train continued moving. Not long after.
Very abruptly.
Buzz~ Li Yuan suddenly felt a slight pain in his head, like being continuously pricked by needles, causing him to clench his teeth unconsciously.
However, for Li Yuan, this pain was minor compared to the tornt of practicing "Observing the Grand Sun Starry Scripture."
At the sa ti.
Boom~ An invisible force seed to squeeze around his body, like entering water and facing resistance from all sides.
Increasingly uncomfortable.
"Ah!" So students showed painful expressions, their faces red, veins bulging, as if suffering unbearable pain.
Thud~
Thump~ Many students couldn't help but half-kneel, trying to relieve the sudden pressure.
"Relax," the voice of a martial officer ca to their ears. "It's your first ti experiencing this, it will be over in twenty seconds."
Ten seconds later.
Boom! It was as if their heads were lifted out of water, suddenly breathing fresh air again.
The students, including Li Yuan, felt unprecedented relief, breathing heavily.
"Is it over? Just now, we should have passed through the spatial intersection between the Moon Demon Astral Realm and Blue Star," Li Yuan thought calmly, glancing around.
Except for Lin Lanyue, who was just slightly pale.
"Whoosh!" Other students were lying on the ground, panting, so even unable to hold their weapons.
"What are your nas?" The officer at the rear of the train asked curiously. "Been here before?"
"Report, no." Li Yuan said seriously. "My na is Li Yuan."
"Never been here," Lin Lanyue said calmly.
"Hmm." The officer smiled. "Good seedlings, good luck."
A few minutes later.
"Arrived, prepare to disembark," the officer at the front of the carriage said, and the train slowly stopped.
The carriage doors opened.
Li Yuan and the others got off one after another. The sky was dim, and it was an extrely spacious stop, like a giant playground, with a tallic floor. In the distance, there was a huge war fortress over 200 ters high.
Nearby, several small aircraft were parked.
Students from each carriage were getting off.
"Look at the sky."
"A red moon?"
"So eerie!"
"We were underground just now, how did we get here in a few minutes? Did we teleport?"
"And a war fortress? Feels like another world, the moon doesn't look like this."
"The mountains are so high, and the plants are unfamiliar." Li Yuan heard the low exclamations of other students.
Li Yuan had anticipated this and imdiately saw the red moon in the sky.
No, to be precise, it was a combination of a moon and a sun.
In Li Yuan's view, it was twice as big as the sun, but not as glaring, with a faint halo at the edges.
The entire world seed to be in twilight, quite hazy.
Strange red light strands occasionally appeared and streaked across the sky.
"This is the Moon Demon Astral Realm?" Li Yuan silently felt the environnt.
It seed different from Blue Star, but gravity, air, and other important indicators were not much different.
In fact.
Except for students like Li Yuan and Lin Lanyue, who knew the information in advance, other students weren't fools. They had their own guesses.
But due to the first and second rules, they didn't dare ask much.
"In order, board the aircraft." Hundreds of officers maintained order and watched over every student.
There were combat drones in the sky.
Not far away, there were also patrol combat robots, very tight security.
"These officers." Li Yuan thought, glancing around, using his divine palace to probe.
[Target's life level: 18.8]
[Target's life level: 16.2]
[Target's life level: 17.1]
...
Li Yuan selected three high-ranking officers, but found none with a life level above 20.0.
No second-level source martial artists!
Thinking of Professor Ming and the other source martial artists who didn't board the train.
"Could it be," Li Yuan had a bold guess: "Second-level and above life forms can't enter the Moon Demon Astral Realm?"
Is this the difference between a first-level astral realm and a second-level astral realm?
...
Every twenty students boarded a small aircraft, which then took off quickly.
Boom~
Inside the aircraft, Li Yuan fastened his seatbelt, as usual sitting opposite Lin Lanyue, waiting for orders.
Two officers maintained order. Ten minutes later.
Buzz~ The aircraft door suddenly opened, wind rushing in.
"Li Yuan, get down!" A tall officer said in a deep voice.
Unfastening his seatbelt, Li Yuan and Lin Lanyue exchanged glances, grabbed their spears, and went to the door. Looking down, the aircraft was about three ters above the ground.
Whoosh!
They jumped down, landing lightly.
Boom~ The aircraft door closed, and the small aircraft quickly ascended and left.
Only Li Yuan remained on the hillside.
"Hmm?" Li Yuan looked up, seeing a small black dot in the sky, a combat drone.
It seed to be protecting him.
"It's 8:45 now." Li Yuan glanced at his positioning wristband. "The assessnt starts at 9:00?"
Li Yuan observed his surroundings. It was a mountainside, rocky but sparse trees, quite open.
"According to yesterday's information."
"The entire practical assessnt area is 100 kiloters long and wide." Li Yuan scanned around.
"My location."
Finally, Li Yuan saw the distant landmark lone mountain 'Blade Mountain', smiling. "I'm in the southeast area, good."
"Less than five kiloters from the 'Moon Demon Wolf No. 5 Tribe' gathering area."
"Wait for orders."
...
Fifteen minutes later.
"The practical assessnt starts now!" The positioning wristband sent a reminder.
"Let's go." Li Yuan held his spear and imdiately headed to his destination.
To kill more moon demon creatures?
Besides being strong enough, you need to find their gathering place!
...
At the highest point of the war fortress in the Moon Demon Astral Realm, in a very spacious eting room, there were dense monitoring screens.
"Activate 'Absolute Protection' for the 18 top-rated students," a burly officer said in a deep voice. "Ensure their safety."
"Do our best to ensure the safety of other students as well."
"Yes!"
...
In a deep ravine, Li Yuan was walking.
"Howl~" Suddenly, three large moon demon creatures appeared around a corner.
They were pitch black, over a ter tall, at least two ters long, with tails nearly a ter long. They resembled 'wolves' on Blue Star, but their size was close to tigers, with few hairs and dense scales.
Their eyes were the most striking, blood-red, with a hint of intelligence, making them terrifying.
"Walked a few kiloters, finally encountered three moon demon wolves." Li Yuan stopped, holding his spear, staring at the three moon demon wolves.
No fear, only excitent.
[Target's life level: 8.2, killing it can obtain spiritual nourishnt] Li Yuan smiled after using his divine palace to probe one of them. "Good."
