AWB Chapter 117 The End of the Trial
Chapter 117 The End of the Trial
Just like that, after the two of them stayed together for a while, they started to prepare to set off. Looking at the sky, Qi Yu calculated that there was only one day left before the end of the trial.
They did not want to waste this day, so they explored deep into the earth while it was still early. Along the way, Qi Yu and the others passed through many places and saw all kinds of strange scenes, including fruits as big as human heads, fluorescent mushrooms that pierced the sky, and even a house paved with gold bricks.
Each one of them brought a great shock to the two. Although Qi Yu had seen these in the game, he still felt shocked when he really faced them.
There were also many monsters encountered in various places, but we still killed the ones that needed to be killed and avoided the ones that needed to be avoided, and we had a safe journey along the way.
But after all, they were just exploring on the surface, and they didn't get anything good. Only some ordinary equipment and a few rare herbs. All these things were given to Qi Yu by Su Yuhong.
At this time, Su Yuhong was walking on a small path in the woods, looking left and right, as if looking for something valuable. Qi Yu followed behind, holding a grass sword in his arms, ready to take action at any time.
Su Yuhong turned her head and looked at Qi Yu's serious expression. She laughed instantly and then said, "Xiao Yu, you are going back soon. Why are you so serious? Speaking of which, I am curious about where you will rank this time."
Qi Yu was slightly startled, then asked: "What number?"
Su Yuhong replied: "Ranking, you even killed the queen bee this time, I feel you should at least be in the top 1,000."
"One thousand?" Qi Yu shook his head: "The task my teacher gave me is to be in the top five hundred."
Su Yuhong was stunned, and then she screamed: "Top 500? You are just a freshman, but the teacher let you enter the top 500? Isn't this embarrassing..."
Su Yuhong suddenly lost her relaxed expression and asked, "Besides the battles in the Hive, have you fought any other battles since you came here? These battles will be an important basis for ranking after you return to the academy."
Su Yuhong frowned and said randomly: "No, let's have a fight. My ranking last time was relatively high, so it can be considered a plus point then."
Qi Yu was stunned, and immediately said in surprise: "Is this possible? Then we can fight whenever we have nothing to do, and play ten games..."
"Stop!" Su Yuhong stretched out her hand to stop him from saying the next words: "Do you think you can think of this, but those seniors before you didn't think of it? If they could, they would have done it a long time ago. When fighting with the same person, only the best record will be counted for scoring."
Qi Yu curled his lips helplessly and said regretfully: "Hey, I knew it wouldn't be that simple."
Then he saw Su Yuhong distanced herself from him, and she said, "Come on, let's have a fight. Although it's a bit shameful to use this to get points, it's still most important to complete the teacher's task first."
Qi Yu didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he saw this, he slowly waved at him and said, "It's okay, Sister Yuhong, don't worry, I have fought with people many times before, especially the son of the Ye family, he seems to be in the top 500 of the ranking list."
Then he slowly walked to Su Yuhong, looked at her with a smile, then gently held her in his arms and said to her ear: "Besides, how could I bear to hit you."
Su Yuhong blushed immediately and let him hold her. Then she raised her little fist and gently hit his chest: "You are the only one who can say it."
Then she raised her head with a serious expression and said, "But you must complete the teacher's task, and you must not take it lightly!"
When Qi Yu heard this, he naturally understood what she meant, because he knew that if he made the teacher angry, he might be used as a sacrifice.
But in Su Yuhong's eyes, Qi Yu knew nothing at all, so she was afraid that he didn't care and thought that the teacher couldn't do anything to him, so she kept emphasizing again and again that he should complete the task.
Qi Yu took the opportunity to say, "What will happen if I fail to complete the task? Can I be kicked out?"
Su Yuhong heard this and shook her head and said, "It will be even more terrifying than this." Then she was silent for a moment, then sighed and said, "Since you are about to pass the trial, there are some things I should tell you."
Then Su Yuhong told him some secrets of the Wood Element Academy and the situation of Teacher Zhang. Qi Yu listened and found that the information was basically the same as what Wu Yi had said.
"So, do you understand? If you fail to complete the task, the teacher might use you as a 'sacrifice' to offer to the 'mother'." Su Yuhong wrinkled her nose and looked ferocious.
Qi Yu nodded and said softly, "I understand. I didn't expect that the academy would have such a secret. So, as long as we are still apprentices, this "Sword of Damocles" will always threaten us."
Su Yuhong nodded helplessly: "To be exact, that's right. But don't worry, with your qualifications, becoming a teacher is basically a foregone conclusion."
Qi Yu looked at Su Yuhong patting his shoulder and encouraging him, and thought to himself: The most important thing now should be to make myself still useful to the teacher. As long as I am still useful, she should not treat me as "nutrients".
Qi Yu remembered that Su Yuhong had gone out on a secret mission while he was preparing for the trial, so he asked curiously, "I see. I was wondering why you were so anxious to go out on a mission when I was preparing for the trial. What did the teacher ask you to do?"
Su Yuhong's face suddenly became a little unnatural, and she said with a wandering look, "Ah... I just carried out a small task. The main reason was that the teacher's deadline for this task was quite tight, so I was in a hurry to carry it out."
Qi Yu nodded after hearing this. He did not inquire into her somewhat nervous expression, nor did he investigate the truth of her mission, because he actually knew that her mission was most likely to find a sacrifice for Zhang Xu, and she was so anxious, which meant that the deadline for Zhang Xu to hand in the sacrifice was approaching.
Just as the two were talking, suddenly the task cards on their bodies emitted a faint green light, and then vibrated slightly. Qi Yu and Su Yuhong looked at each other and instantly understood that this was a sign of the end of the trial.
Su Yuhong pinched Qi Yu's palm and said, "Don't be afraid, just wait quietly." Then she pointed to the task card above her head and said, "If it emits green light, it means your task has been completed. If it is red, it means that the task has not been completed.
After hearing her words, Qi Yu nodded to show that he understood, and waited quietly there. Then, he saw his task card fly out of the ring by itself and float in the air.
As the two men gazed, a wave of magic emanated from the task board, and then two portals appeared above their heads. Accompanied by a huge suction force, their bodies were instantly pulled into the portal uncontrollably.
