Ding Meng's score was still rising, but after a while, Little Rascal stopped, "It's about time. Just a little bit will do."
If Jiang Haiyi and the others heard this, they would probably vomit blood. How could the others live with such a terrifying score?
During this period of time, he had absorbed the reverse source crystal's energy twice, causing each point to be strengthened to an unprecedented degree. Now, Ding Meng had only used the first six points of energy, and his final score was fixed at "2,000,000 points".
This score was enough to show disdain for the audience and completely shocked everyone, including Cheng Jin and the group of mentors in Center 2. Everyone was sitting on the spectator stand and looked at each other. How did this kid train all this time?
2,000,000 points, could it be that this kid had been hiding it all this time?
He didn't hide it before, but now he was hiding it.
On the north stand, Transit String looked at Teng Ma beside him, "Old Teng, do you think Haiyi is strong enough now?"
Teng Ma was already dumbfounded. A 21-year-old esper with an origin ability index of 2 million points. This was something that only happened a few times in the history of the Federation. If such a person isn't a genius, then who is?
However, he still wasn't convinced and argued, "The data doesn't mean anything. This is just the beginning. The hard part is yet to come."
He didn't speak carelessly. Next was a series of detailed and strict evaluation of reaction speed, operation speed, martial arts, secret books, and so on.
In fact, this test was similar to the one in the Norse Empire. The only difference was that this test was absolutely confidential to this batch of students. The outside world could only see the score.
Ding Meng and the others' scores began to rise. Most of them were increasing in increments of 100,000 points, but Ding Meng's score was increasing very slowly. It was basically increasing at the rate of 20,000 to 30,000 points. However, his popularity value had increased by 30,000 points. Presumably, many people present were shocked by his "explosion" just now.
The first stage of the test came out after 10 minutes:
First place: Jiang Haiyi, 3021,142 points;
Second place: Sun Shiling, 273,4536 points;
Third place: Liang Yiran, 272,1119 points;
Fourth place: Du Mo, 256,569 points;
Fifth place: Song Jiahui, 229,699 points;
Sixth place: Ding Meng, 2,200,000 points;
Seventh place: Yong Bang, 2156765 points;
Eighth place: Mu Hua, 214,888 points;
No. 9: Dongfang Liyan, 200,1230;
…
This ranking allowed Jiang Haiyi to return to the top of the list, and he was far ahead of the rest. Du Mo climbed to fourth place, and Ding Meng fell to sixth place.
Actually, those who were observant could tell that Sun Shiling and Liang Yiran were on par with each other. Song Jiahui, Ding Meng, Yong Bang, Mu Hua, and Dongfang Liyan were all on the same level.
Galloping Horse laughed again. "Like I said, the hardest part is yet to come."
The Transit String did not answer. She was also secretly wondering why Ding Meng's score could not go up. Could it be that his martial arts skills were not solid enough?
In fact, what she didn't know was that Ding Meng didn't use anything in this series of tests, which meant that he gave up on these tests. He wasn't stupid enough to expose his trump card in exchange for such meaningless points on the leaderboard.
Little Rascal said, "Oh right, there's still one test that can be tested."
Ding Meng asked, "Which one?"
Little Rascal said, "You still have to test your physical fitness. The last time you tested it in the Empire, it was A-1. You can try it again this time. It should have improved quite a bit."
Xiao Ai also echoed, "Your training on planet KV303 and Flying Star City has also made me very curious. How much has your body's bearing capacity grown?
This time, you can use this opportunity to test it so that we can determine the steps for your training in the future. "
Ding Meng nodded and said, "Alright, then let's test my resistance."
As soon as he began to exert his strength, the spectator area began to boil again. Xu Qianqian suddenly cheered, "Sister Yi, look! Your Little Mengmeng's name has lit up again!"
Dai Yi focused her gaze and saw that the two words "Ding Meng" at the edge of the open space suddenly glowed with seven different colors. Furthermore, they were rising crazily.
These colors would only appear when the system was evaluating a certain special test. In other words, Ding Meng was currently displaying some kind of outstanding talent.
With another "whoosh", Ding Meng's overall score changed again. At this moment, the tens of thousands of people in the audience let out a "wow" at the same time. This was because Ding Meng's score was now displayed as 3700000 points!
In the office of Training Center No. 2, Cheng Jin also opened his eyes wide in front of the screen and shouted, "How did this kid's score increase by 1.7 million points all of a sudden? And it's even a round number! This is precisely controlled. Does anyone know?"
The other instructors helplessly shook their heads. Duan Fengyang spread his hands and said, "Old Cheng, it's not like you don't know the rules. We can't enter the venue. Also, I just checked the internal data. Ding Meng chose to block everyone, so no one can see his test results."
Hua Bai muttered, "There are only three tests that are easiest to score on: Origin Energy, special skills, and physical fitness."
There was no need to talk about Origin Energy. The first test was definitely Origin Energy. However, Ding Meng didn't seem to have any secret manuals, so there was only one possibility left. What Ding Meng had just tested was physical fitness.
Hua Bai's guess wasn't wrong. At this moment, inside the sensor pod, Ding Meng had already heard the results of the system's test. "Student No. 43, your current physical fitness is S rank. Your specific level is 1 star, level 15!"
Little Rascal immediately cheered, "Coconut, Ding Meng really was forced out."
Xiao Ai sighed. "No wonder. This explains why he was able to advance by leaps and bounds in Flying Star City. ACT 5570, keep it up."
The system's voice said, "Students, the first phase of the test has come to an end. The second phase of the test will officially begin in thirty minutes. Please select the auxiliary interface and select your supplementary materials according to the rules. The selection time is fifteen minutes. Please prepare as soon as possible."
The system's voice said, "Student No. 43, your results in the first phase of the test were excellent. Your total score is 3700000. Your current ranking is first. Your popularity score is 28299. Your current ranking is seventh. Your overall evaluation is Beginner Origin Energy Combat Master.
Please continue to work hard. I wish you an excellent result in the second phase of the test. "
Ding Meng wasn't too surprised by this. This was within his expectations.
What a joke. He had absorbed the pure energy of the Inverse Source Crystal twice and had even refined it thoroughly. It would be a shame if he didn't reach the combat master standard. However, what he was most concerned about right now was the auxiliary interface.
The second phase of the test was a challenge. For the sake of fairness, everyone could choose the equipment they liked. Of course, the equipment was also limited. You could only choose one piece of equipment of each type, and it had to be of the same type.
For example, you could only choose one long-range technological device. Similarly, you could only choose one suitable cold weapon.
Ding Meng's choice was a Sharp Spirit Blade. This thing was a longsword that could be imbued with energy. It was very simple and easy to use, and it was simulated by the server. Apart from this, Ding Meng didn't choose any tactical equipment like the heat ray gun, explosion-proof shield, or dazzling bullet. He believed that the other students wouldn't choose that either. Battle Reverend level Origin Energy Users didn't need these things, and they didn't fear them at all.
Next was the second phase of the test. This was the beginning of the main event.
The first phase of the ranking was just for the Superpower Center to verify your level and serve as a reference. However, the second phase of the challenge was different.
Every student had ten challenges. You could choose one student to challenge. Winning a match would earn you three points, losing one point, and drawing two points. Winning three matches in a row would earn you twenty points, five matches would earn you fifty points, and ten matches would earn you one hundred points.
Winning a match would earn you two points. Winning three matches in a row would earn you eight points. Regardless of whether you won or lost, as long as you fought three matches in a row, you wouldn't be able to accept any more challenges. You had to rest for one match, and the system would automatically restore you. This meant that you had to have the foundation to fight three matches in a row.
As for the competition map, it was up to the challenger to choose. There were more than 1,200 maps, and they basically covered any scene that could be encountered during the battle.
This rule seemed a little strange, but it actually provided a very good opportunity for those students who were ranked at the bottom in the first phase. This was because this was a test of your vision, judgment, strategy, operation, and other abilities.
Just as Galloping Horse had said before, the numbers didn't mean anything. Actual combat was the most important. Not only did you need to have strength, but you also needed to use your brain.
At this moment, the challenge had yet to start, but the spectator area was even more lively. In the VIP seats in the north stands, Cartel finally appeared.
On the way here, the old man had already learned about the situation in the first phase through the wristwatch. Therefore, as soon as he entered the spectator area, he shook his big head without hesitation and mocked Cartel mercilessly.
"Galloping Horse, didn't you say that Ding Meng is still a little inferior to Jiang Haiyi?
What do you mean by entering the headquarters directly? He is a little young, but after five or six years of training, he can at least be responsible for a small team … I don't think that's necessary. The young master of the Jiang Family can't even be compared to a refugee. He is very suitable to be a laborer … "
"You …" Galloping Horse was very angry. He had boasted about this, but Ding Meng had mercilessly slapped him in the face in the first phase.
As an origin energy warrior, he was actually more aware of Ding Meng's performance in the first phase. Ding Meng's two explosive numbers showed that there were two possibilities about Ding Meng.
The first possibility was that Ding Meng had a strong foundation and was weak in other aspects, but he had some special abilities. The second possibility was that Ding Meng had a strong foundation and was hiding his strength. He didn't fully cooperate with the system during the test.
The possibility of the second possibility was almost negligible. Who would dare to be sloppy in such a heavyweight evaluation?
This was a major event that concerned one's future and destiny. Needless to say, everyone would do their best.
However, as the old saying went, what was the use of having a high score?
Winning was the most important thing. Thus, Galloping Horse rolled his eyes at Cartel. "Let's wait and see."
Cartel didn't care. "The result will be the same anyway. Let's just watch. I came here today specifically to see what the point-giver looks like."
