In the virtual world of the server, what appeared in front of Ding Meng's eyes was the spacious lawn outside Center No. 2. Now, the six teachers were standing in a row on the lawn. Their mirror images and their real bodies had not changed much, and they were still wearing the Starlight University uniform.
Du Mo's mirror image was quickly transmitted over, and he explained, "Ding Meng, the first test is the first time the teachers will test your basic abilities. It is not an official test, but the data will be recorded by the server, so you have to perform well."
Hua Bai said seriously, "Student Ding Meng, according to our previous evaluation and settings, the mirror images of the six of us have been reduced to the level of advanced War Supremacy by the server. If you can defeat any one of us, you will pass the first test. As for your request to choose all six of us, I can make an exception and agree to it. As long as you can defeat any three of us working together, we will agree to it. Why don't you prepare on the control panel now? We will officially begin in five minutes..."
Hua Bai's test had a deeper meaning, because from the evaluation of the Cypress Star video provided by Du Mo, Ding Meng's level should be at the level of an intermediate War Supremacy of the Thermodynamics System. He also had some of the speed characteristics of the Light Speed System, and at the same time, he was good at classical swordsmanship. At the same time, he was at the level of an intermediate War Supremacy, and Ding Meng had a lot of foundation.
Now that the server had reduced the mirror images of the six teachers to the level of advanced War Supremacy, it was not easy for Ding Meng to win against one of them. It was almost impossible for him to defeat three of them working together.
Ding Meng did not activate Little Rascal Xiao Ai's vision, because the vision provided by the server was the same as Xiao Ai's "detection mode". All kinds of people and environments were reflected in 3D and data on the retina, so it was clear at a glance.
Moreover, the server also provided an option of "Support" on the control panel. This option covered a lot of things. However, for Ding Meng, the thing he lacked the most right now was a weapon. He was not confident that he could defeat these teachers without a weapon.
However, Ding Meng was already used to using the claw blade and the ancient sword. It was impossible for him to adapt to other weapons in such a short period of time. As for long-range firearms, he had never even considered using them. Therefore, after fiddling around in the armory for a while, Ding Meng chose a long sword that was similar to the ancient sword. The sword was labeled as "Phantom of the Broken Sky." Presumably, someone had used this thing in Starlight University.
The server quickly materialized the sword, and Ding Meng habitually hung it on his waist.
When Jin Yun saw his choice of weapon and the other sword's movements, a satisfied look appeared in his eyes. "This little fellow has good taste."
Ding Meng said in a deep voice, "Teachers, I'm ready."
Hua Bai was a little surprised. "You picked a sword in such a short period of time? Are you sure you're ready?"
Ding Meng nodded. "This sword is enough."
"You're a little arrogant, aren't you?" Hua Bai secretly criticized. He turned to look at the other five teachers. "My colleagues, who would like to take on Ding Meng first?"
Cheng Jin could not wait any longer. He walked forward casually. "I'll go first. After all, he's a student of the Thermodynamics Department. Don't fight with me over him."
The other five immediately pulled long faces, each feeling a wave of displeasure in their hearts.
Cheng Jin took two steps forward. His left hand cracked the joints on his right hand. "Hey, Ding Meng, you'd better be careful. Old Cheng will take the initiative. You'll have to withstand it."
Ding Meng had already focused and activated his origin. "Please!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Cheng Jin suddenly slashed out with a "Mountain Splitting Strength" hand chop. Even though Ding Meng was mentally prepared, he was still shocked. This hand chop was actually an external release of Origin Energy. It transformed into the shape of a broom. Its entire body was fiery red, and its outer layer was wrapped in flames. Its volume was even larger than a person's.
It looked like a furious chop, but it was actually a slanted sweep. The front of the broom was huge, and it was actually changing. It seemed like it was swaying left and right, as if it wanted to change its attack according to Ding Meng's dodging.
The martial arts techniques of the instructors from the famous Federation schools were indeed extraordinary. The martial arts techniques of the pirate leaders in outer space were like child's play in front of these people.
Just as the fiery red broom was about to sweep Ding Meng in, Ding Meng suddenly jumped to the side and rolled forward. He had cleverly avoided the broom. However, at this moment, Cheng Jin appeared above his head like a ghost. His palms formed a fiery red force field that pressed down on Ding Meng. Ding Meng had seen this move from Ren Zhan before — the "Holy Blaze Formation".
However, Cheng Jin's "Holy Blaze Formation" was much more powerful than Ren Zhan's. It was like a giant wall that completely locked Ding Meng in all directions. There was no way he could dodge it.
Ding Meng quickly exerted his strength. He pushed his palms up and then swung them forward. Cheng Jin was directly sent flying.
Ding Meng followed up with a backhand punch, and a muffled "boom" sounded in the air. The cannon blast blasted Cheng Jin's "Holy Radiance Flame Formation" into countless sparks. Cheng Jin's feet were unsteady after he landed on the ground, and he took a few steps back before he finally managed to stand still.
This time, not only was Cheng Jin shocked, even the experienced and knowledgeable Hua Bai was stunned. "This is probably the limit of a four-star basic technique, right?"
Cheng Jin adjusted his collar. He was pleasantly surprised. "Good kid, you've even learned Collapsing Force and Cannon Force. I like it!"
"Let me!"
A deep voice rang out. Duan Fengyang's figure had already entered the field. In Ding Meng's vision, Duan Fengyang's mirror image instantly split into several dozen copies, all of them revolving around him at an extremely fast speed. This was definitely not the light speed type technique "Afterimage". This was because each of the doppelgangers was a real person, a real person. They didn't move at high speed to form instant teleportation. Telekinesis vision wouldn't lie. The feedback he received was that there were several dozen Duan Fengyangs.
Little Rascal was shocked. "Careful, his aura is very strong."
Xiao Ai said, "This should be the effect of a secret manual or grimoire."
What was even more shocking was that after these several dozen real people revolved for a while, they split into several dozen more doppelgangers, completely enveloping Ding Meng from all directions. It was basically a purple light barrier.
Suddenly, the purple light barrier rapidly closed in on Ding Meng's position at the very center. With a boom, it was as if countless energy bullets had exploded at the same time. The surrounding railings and steps were all blown away, and a deep pit with a diameter of twenty meters was blasted into the ground.
Unfortunately, Ding Meng wasn't blown away. His body was completely covered by a pure white, shining diamond mirror image, so he wasn't injured at all.
It was also at this moment that a figure shot out from the center of the deep pit. Duan Fengyang had actually burrowed out from the ground. The previous joint attack was just the prelude. The real lethal move was hidden underground.
However, when he emerged, Ding Meng's fist was already in the air, waiting for him. This time, it was a 90 degree vertical "Flame Energy Rushing Fist". With a bang, it collided with Duan Fengyang's fist. The two of them had collided head-on, so it was obvious that Mr. Duan was the one who was at a disadvantage.
He was sent flying back into the hole by the force of the punch. The pile of soil at the entrance of the hole quickly collapsed, burying him underneath.
The other teachers were pleasantly surprised and amused at the same time. "Well done, beautifully done!"
Cheng Jin was also amused. "Good job, kid. Not only are you well-versed in martial arts, but it's also a five-star technique. You're at the level of an advanced War Venerable."
Ding Meng somersaulted in the air and landed steadily outside the pit.
As soon as he landed, Ding Meng realized that something wasn't right. His telekinetic vision was slightly blurry, and there seemed to be a layer of invisible fog around him. The scenery and people in the distance were somewhat distorted.
Xiao Ai immediately called the police. "It's a very high-end harmful substance. It's a new type of poison."
He didn't even need to think about it to know that this poison was secretly released by Mr. Stephen. However, Stephen was even more surprised than Duan Fengyang, who had just crawled out of the hole. His poison was produced from the Devouring World, and it had been modified. It was a very high-grade poison. Although it didn't have the same vicious assimilation effect as the Devouring World, he imagined that Ding Meng's Origin Energy would rapidly increase instead of decreasing.
The statistics function in his field of vision was already displayed for him. He was sure that his eyes weren't playing tricks on him. Ding Meng's current Origin Energy Index was actually as high as 992330 points. This was practically at the peak of the advanced War Venerable level.
There was no way that Ding Meng's Origin Energy Index had risen so high. He felt an unprecedented surge of Origin Energy surge into the poisonous gas.
First of all, the poisonous gas spontaneously combusted. The poisonous gas molecules were ignited by a monstrous wave of heat, burning into colorful flames. The flames floated above the diamond mirror image, and the surface of the mirror image actually began to crack. One could imagine how terrifying this wave of Origin Energy was.
Seeing that the shield was about to shatter, Ding Meng felt a bone-piercing chill. This wave of Origin Energy was actually mixed with Origin Energy of the ice element, and it also instantly froze the shield. At this moment, if it weren't for his telekinetic vision, Ding Meng wouldn't have been able to figure out what was going on and would have collapsed.
Hua Bai's figure flashed behind him in a flash. He raised his hand and pulled horizontally with his claw. The sky was filled with a bright light.
Although Ding Meng wasn't afraid of light speed users, this claw seemed to have created five golden cracks in the air. It was like a wormhole in the universe. If this claw had landed on his real body, Ding Meng didn't think that he would have been able to withstand it.
This elegant and genteel looking teacher Hua Bai was actually an expert of Heat, Ice, and Light Speed. He really didn't know how this person cultivated. The most important thing was that an advanced War Venerable could do this. Not only was Ding Meng shocked, he was also curious.
At this moment, he no longer hesitated. All the origin points in his body were fully activated. With a "zheng" sound, the Crown Shield was raised. This was currently the strongest defense of his "Diamond Star Technique".
"Ding ding ding ding ding — — —"
Hua Bai's claw clawed at the shield, and the sound was as dense as raindrops falling on a plate. Moreover, his figure constantly flashed around Ding Meng. From afar, it looked just like Duan Fengyang's attack. Countless Hua Bais surrounded Ding Meng and unleashed a torrential storm of attacks.
Ding Meng didn't counterattack, nor did he retreat. All he had to do now was wait because he knew that the real fatal blow had yet to come.
