Swallowed Star: Copy God

Chapter 28: First Layer, Stage A - Failure? (Seeking Recommendations - Triple Update!)

Looking at the dark entrance ahead, Ye Yun adjusted his breathing and slowly stepped inside.

As soon as he passed through the entrance, Ye Yun immediately felt the surrounding scenery change. It was no longer the silver earth and cosmic sky, but a vast grassland. All that met his eyes was green, stretching out as far as he could see. Just as Ye Yun was observing his surroundings, the electronic synthesized voice sounded again.

“Trial Tower, First Layer, Stage A: Kill 50 Elementary Beast General-level Wild Bulls that are besieging you within 10 minutes! If you die midway, or fail to complete the kill target within the specified time, the challenge will be considered a failure! Student Ye Yun, this is your first time entering the Trial Tower, so you have 5 minutes of preparation time.”

Ye Yun was not surprised after hearing this. Gu Ye had already emphasized the assessment goals of the first layer to him. Each layer of the Trial Tower is divided into three stages: Stage A, Stage B, and Stage C. Only by passing the previous stage can you enter the challenge of the next stage.

And the difficulty of each stage will increase exponentially. Continuous challenges are actually a great test of the challenger's energy.

According to the Trial Tower level assessment rules, passing Stage A of the first layer will change the Trial Tower level to 1.3. Passing Stage B of the first layer will result in 1.6. Completely passing all three stages of the first layer and entering the next layer will update it to 2.0.

The five-minute preparation time for the first entry is to allow each challenger to adapt to their newly generated body. Ye Yun simply practiced with his spear for a while and had already fully adapted. Fighting was no problem at all.

With a dispassionate prompt, the five minutes were up. Ye Yun's first Trial Tower challenge, First Layer, Stage A, officially began!

On the grassland, a hundred meters in front of Ye Yun, 50 strong bull-type monsters appeared at the same time. Each one was nearly three meters tall. Looking from a distance, the herd of wild bulls gathered together, creating a different kind of pressure.

Wild bulls have sharp horns and strong bodies. If you are hit head-on, not to mention being cut by the horns, even the impact force is enough to cause serious damage to internal organs, or even be killed by the impact!

The wild bulls simulated by this Trial Tower seemed to have all entered a state of rage. Looking at the unfamiliar human not far away, each one stomped their hooves on the ground, their nostrils emitting thick white air, and they madly charged towards Ye Yun!

After a month of training, Ye Yun had fully adapted to confronting monsters. At this time, although the fifty wild bulls in front of him were very imposing when they galloped, even bigger than tanks, Ye Yun was not flustered at all. He held the spear tightly in his hand, focused his attention, and calmly waited for the arrival of the wild bulls.

The distance of a hundred meters was reached in an instant. The first wild bull charging in front quickly arrived in front of Ye Yun. Ye Yun did not evade, keeping the spear thrust forward. 2.8 times the force erupted instantly, accurately inserting it into the neck of the wild bull, three meters off the ground. Then, using the wild bull's own impact inertia, Ye Yun leaned back and threw the wild bull out fiercely, using the spear as a support to complete a maneuver of deflecting a thousand pounds with four ounces.

The first wild bull was easily killed by Ye Yun, but the next moment Ye Yun was submerged by the subsequent wild bull herd. Ye Yun's small figure, in the huge wild bull herd, could not be found from the outside at all.

Ye Yun was in the midst of the wild bull herd. Because the wild bulls were too large, not many wild bulls could surround Ye Yun at the same time. He skillfully wielded the spear, bringing its advantages to the extreme. Every thrust of the spear resulted in a wild bull being splattered with blood on the spot, either dead or seriously injured.

The spear in Ye Yun's hand was like a swimming dragon, as if it had its own spirituality, whether it was stabbing, picking, parrying, or bursting, completely unconstrained by form. Combined with Ye Yun's full-strength, subtle-level footwork, these wild bulls could not touch Ye Yun's figure at all, and the rhythm of the battle was always firmly in Ye Yun's hands.

Of course, because the requirements for evasion are getting higher and higher, the possibility of errors in the process of cultivating footwork is also very high. Once a certain place is miscalculated, it may affect the whole, thus putting you in a very dangerous situation.

Ye Yun was currently conducting such an attempt, calculating everything around him that could be used. At this moment, Ye Yun had just dodged a wild bull from the right, and at the same time, his spear parried away a wild bull in front of him. Suddenly, a wild bull rushed out from the left side, and its sharp horns slammed hard into Ye Yun's waist.

‘It's over, there was a loophole in the calculation...’

Reappearing on the grassland, he could still feel some pain. The wild bull herd in front of him had disappeared. Ye Yun recalled what he had just experienced, summed up the lessons, and said in a low voice,

“Continue!”

The next moment, a new challenge for the first layer, stage A, of the Trial Tower began again. Ye Yun once again fought with 50 estrous wild bulls.

In the ninth floor hall of the 'Ninefold Tower', a white youth asked a Chinese female student next to him,

“Liu, Ye Yun has finally entered the Trial Tower. Didn't you always say before that his score was lagging behind because he didn't participate in the Trial Tower assessment? Now that 20 minutes have passed, I wonder what changes have occurred in his ranking?”

The Chinese female student, called Liu, had neat short hair and an extremely outstanding appearance, but without any makeup, her temperament was very cold. She glanced at the white youth and said emotionlessly,

“Evans, you should take care of yourself! You have been in the Elite Training Camp for three years, and you are still hovering around the top 100. Many students who came in later than you have surpassed you. How can you still be in the mood to care about a newcomer who has just entered the training camp?”

Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes. The Elite Training Camp gathers outstanding elite students from all over the world, most of whom come from the five major countries, as well as some other base cities. After entering the Elite Training Camp, they will naturally be divided into different small groups.

Many students from China occupy a large share in the Elite Training Camp, and their own strength level is also very high, so the Chinese students can be considered a large group in the entire Elite Training Camp.

Evans came from a base city in the European Union. His family belongs to the HR Alliance. Because of the powerful scale of the HR Alliance, the group to which Evans belongs is also very powerful. He and Liu Min are under the same teacher in the Elite Training Camp and have been competing in many aspects.

These days, Ye Yun has been the subject of much discussion in the Elite Training Camp. Liu Min and others, who are also Chinese students, are naturally unwilling to see the plight of their compatriot Ye Yun, and in most cases, they are maintaining Ye Yun's face. However, Ye Yun himself has never come forward to make any explanations, so some of Liu Min's explanations seem a bit pale and have been ridiculed by Evans and his group.

Being touched on his sore spot by Liu Min, Evans was not ashamed or annoyed. He laughed and said loudly,

“No matter what my situation is, this Ye Yun is just not good enough! The quality of this new batch of students you Chinese is far inferior to our HR Alliance!”

At this moment, Evans' communication watch rang. Seeing the caller ID, Evans didn't care. After answering, he directly played the sound on speaker.

“Hey, Evans, Ye Yun's score ranking on the Black Dragon Ranking has indeed changed, but it has only risen a few places and is still around 156th place.”

Hearing this news, Evans' smile became even more undisguised. Knowing that Ye Yun had entered the Trial Tower, Evans had people waiting in front of the Black Dragon Sculpture, in order to know the situation of Ye Yun's assessment. Now that more than 20 minutes have passed, the assessment of the first layer, stage A, should have been experienced once no matter what.

But according to the results, Ye Yun obviously did not successfully pass the stage A assessment of the first layer. Otherwise, the Trial Tower level could definitely reach 1.3 immediately. With a 30% increase in points, it is impossible to only rise a few places. The reason for this result must be that Ye Yun failed in stage A of the first layer, so Ye Yun's Trial Tower level may be 1.1 or 1.2, which does not have much impact on the points.

Liu Min, who was on the side, also heard this result. Combined with Evans' laughter next to her, Liu Min's face was a little ugly for a moment. It wasn't that she regretted Ye Yun's lack of strength, but that she felt very uncomfortable that Evans was so arrogant. She and Evans entered the Elite Training Camp in the same batch, were under the tutelage of the same teacher, and belonged to different groups, so they were natural enemies.

But because Liu Min was more diligent and had more outstanding talent, she had always been able to steadily suppress Evans. Recently, because of Ye Yun's problem, Evans had been complacent for a long time. Liu Min was originally able to counterattack with words, but today Ye Yun's performance made Liu Min speechless and unable to refute.
