Electromagnetic Tyrant

Chapter 263 Assessment

Ji Xinghuo saw that Xuanming didn't want to say more, so he didn't ask any more questions.

He could also hand in ether crystals and real dragon coins as bidding funds. Or he could give the auction items to Xuanming for appraisal. If the value was high enough, he would be willing to accept the commission and display it on the auction house's list. Of course, he would have to pay a handling fee.

In short, everything was not cheap.

Ji Xinghuo didn't have the Everday Merit, and he didn't fancy the auction items commissioned by others.

After leaving the Rare Auction House, Ji Xinghuo didn't immediately follow Xuanming's instructions to go to the arena in the Everday City to participate in the assessment.

He didn't want to go there rashly before he had a clear understanding of the situation on the Earth Abyss Star.

Walking on the street, Ji Xinghuo wandered aimlessly, scanning the surroundings with electromagnetic induction, and soon he finally found the target.

It was a bar located behind the street, where many highlanders gathered.

With his current identity, he must go to the highlanders to get information, and this place is very suitable.

Ji Xinghuo walked into the bar.

Even in the daytime, there were dozens of highlanders drinking here, from different tribes, most of them were followers of the Red Emperor. He felt the dangerous atmosphere as soon as he came in. For other races, this place is definitely not a good place, but for followers of the Red Emperor, it is like a fish in water.

Ji Xinghuo was a stranger, and some highlanders turned their heads to look at him and didn't care.

No one would doubt his tough look.

"Drink!"

"If you don't finish this cup, I'll blow your head off!"

The bar was noisy, shouting one after another, mixed with the lewd laughter of female highlanders, a lot of dirty words and shouting.

Ji Xinghuo sat at the bar and ordered a few glasses of fierce blood wine. After drinking it, his face was slightly red.

Then he talked to the highlander next to him.

This highlander was very strong, a fourth-level steel warrior. Although he hid the Eternal Day Badge in his waist bag, he still couldn't avoid electromagnetic induction.

Ji Xinghuo brought the topic to the Eternal Day Merit and the Earth Abyss Star intentionally or unintentionally.

Sure enough, the other party was a Everday Guardian who knew the inside story.

But for some reason, this highlander didn't dare to say more about the situation on Earth Abyss Star. The information revealed in a few words was enough for Ji Xinghuo to confirm that this was not a trap set by the Jingying Clan, and that outsiders could indeed go to Earth Abyss Star and earn Everday Merit.

In the bar, Ji Xinghuo contacted several highlanders again, and the content he got was similar.

"Don't dare to say?"

"Or can't you say it in the Everday City?"

More than two hours later, Ji Xinghuo walked out of the bar, feeling a little confused.

Obviously, the Jingying Clan issued a gag order on the situation on Earth Abyss Star, and used some means to prevent people who had been to Earth Abyss Star from revealing the true information.

Ji Xinghuo looked around, and there were too many secrets hidden in the magnificent and bright Everday City.

"Then go and try."

"Since they can return to the star realm safely, it can be seen that Earth Abyss Star is indeed not that dangerous."

Ji Xinghuo made a decision.

He usually wouldn't act rashly, but the few treasures in the auction house that he liked all required Eternal Day Merit to bid. The Heavenly Diamond, clone twins, and other things were very attractive to him.

A moment later.

Ji Xinghuo came to the arena of the Eternal Day City.

The hexagonal arena was more than 300 meters in diameter, similar to the Super League stadium on Earth, but there were not many people. Most of the spectator seats were empty. Only four or five hundred people sat on the sidelines, watching the battle on the middle field boredly.

Ji Xinghuo also watched for a while.

The battle on the field was the assessment for joining the Eternal Day Guard. One side was a legendary strongman of the Jingying clan, and several Jingying clan members took turns to be examiners. After the battle began, the timer was counted, and if it lasted for 3 star ticks, it would be considered passed. 3 star ticks is roughly 3 and a half minutes on Earth.

There were many people taking the assessment, but few who could pass.

Ji Xinghuo watched the battle for more than half an hour, and only three people passed, which was less than one-tenth of the total.

"I want to sign up."

He walked to the side of the field and said to a Jingying tribe member, and took out his Eternal Day Badge.

The other party took it and took a look, a little surprised. Ji Xinghuo already had the Eternal Day Badge, but he had never participated in the assessment? But he still registered immediately and nodded, "Go on stage when your name is called."

Ji Xinghuo put away the badge and waited by the side.

More than ten minutes later.

"Kui Ye!" The Jingying tribe member in charge of registering for the assessment shouted loudly, "It's your turn to go on stage."

Ji Xinghuo walked into the field silently.

A figure flew out of the room above the arena, and with a bang, it landed on the ground dozens of meters in front of him, and the light spread out to reveal his true appearance.

"It's you."

Ji Xinghuo raised his eyebrows.

The Jingying tribe member opposite was the guard who took him into the city yesterday, named Mingyu.

Mingyu explained expressionlessly: "I took turns to be the examiner today. When I saw you, I just came up to test your strength. It's not targeting you."

"Oh."

Ji Xinghuo didn't think much about it. He took the Ice Vein Axe behind him and held it in his hand.

But in his heart, he took it very seriously.

When he met Mingyu yesterday, he already knew that this humanoid crystal hero was a halo fighter. Judging from the fluctuations of etheric energy, his strength was legendary.

On Earth, halo fighters are rare.

In the City of Eternal Day, one out of every five crystal heroes is a halo fighter, and almost all of them are humanoid.

The core ability of the Halo Fighter profession is "light energy", which converts all star power into light energy. The nature of this energy is very domineering, combining strength, defense, speed, burst and recovery. It is fully balanced and powerful, but it also excludes most abilities and can only fuse skill-based alien species.

Even if they have mastered the skills of the ability, the Halo Fighter's battles are still very dependent on martial arts, which can make them more powerful.

Therefore, every Halo Fighter is proficient in martial arts.

The strength of the Halo Fighter is heavily dependent on the strength of light energy, that is, the strength of star power.

The higher the rank, the higher the demand for light energy.

Therefore, in addition to a small number of one or two skill-based abilities, the remaining opportunities for Halo Fighters to fuse alien species will mostly choose ether sensitivity and ether affinity. The more the better, the stacking effect, just to speed up the cultivation and recovery of star power and convert more light energy.

This career template is very closed, and there is no advanced profession.

Mingyu was unarmed, with only a layer of exquisite armor growing with his body. His expression was still cold, and he said, "I'm starting."

The Jingying tribe at the side of the arena pressed the timer.

Boom!

As soon as the voice fell, five light circles lit up on Mingyu's body, and his whole body was shining. His speed soared sharply and turned into a light and shadow, shooting directly at Ji Xinghuo.

He didn't have any fancy moves, just punched out.

The light energy on the fist was compressed and then exploded.

Explosive fist!

This is the most common supernatural skill of the Halo Fighter. The fist exploded with fierce power, and the violent lethality of light energy was indestructible.

Ordinary super aliens dared not resist this punch at all, and even couldn't see the attack clearly.

But in Ji Xinghuo's eyes, it was not so scary.

He had already turned on the overclocking thinking and chose the three-fold nerve reaction acceleration. All the movements in his eyes were slowed down by three times. When Mingyu blasted the air and arrived in front of him, he closed his eyes and stepped to the left, but only dodged one step.

The fist brushed past the figure and hit the air. Light burst out, but it did not cause blinding effect to Ji Xinghuo.

Boom!

The air exploded and the shock wave burst out.

Ji Xinghuo ignored the shock wave hitting his body and still closed his eyes. The double-edged battle axe in his hand had already chopped down, forcing Mingyu to avoid it.

Mingyu turned halfway and blocked it with his arm.

Clang.

The axe blade chopped on the armor of his arm, sparks flew, and the Ice Vein Axe came with a "heavy blow", which doubled the power when chopped and burst out low-temperature frost.

Ji Xinghuo only used 80% of his strength for this axe.

The light energy flowed on Mingyu's arm, bounced off the battle axe, and left a dent on the armor, but Ji Xinghuo was repelled by the rebounding force and staggered back more than ten steps. Mingyu was also chopped back two steps, unable to chase, raised his left hand and pointed at Ji Xinghuo and spread his palm.

A beam of light shot out from the palm.

Pulse beam!

While retreating, Ji Xinghuo raised the Ice Veiner Axe in time and blocked the attack of the pulse beam with the axe face.

The beam contained domineering energy, and Ji Xinghuo retreated faster and was almost knocked away.

Mingyu had already regained his balance, and the light energy burst out again. With a bang, he chased Ji Xinghuo like a cannonball.

In an instant, he rushed in front of him.

"Huh!"

Ji Xinghuo's feet plowed two grooves on the ground and finally stood firm. At the critical moment before Mingyu's fist hit him, he opened his mouth and roared, emitting an ice roar.

Countless frost burst out from the Ice Veiner Axe, and instantly exploded in all directions, hitting Mingyu who was close at hand.

The light energy burst and the frost collided.

Mingyu's whole body stagnated. After all, this punch did not do its best. The low temperature and frost had little effect on him, but when he broke the shock wave of the ice roar, Ji Xinghuo had already flashed to his side, and the double-edged battle axe slashed horizontally, aiming at his neck.

This time, Mingyu had no time to resist.

The battle axe hit his neck hard, the armor shattered, breaking through the light energy protection, and cutting the crystal skin under the armor. The huge force cut a crack.

"Ah?"

There was a scream in the audience.

Mingyu was chopped and flew away. In a flash of light and shadow, he hurriedly distanced himself from Ji Xinghuo.

A hundred meters away, Mingyu touched his neck.

The Jingying people are born with hard bodies, like crystals, but they are essentially creatures. They have blood flowing in their bodies and need to breathe and eat. However, their blood is different from that of humans. They do not breathe oxygen, but eat minerals.

Mingyu touched a stream of blue liquid, which is his own blood.

He bled!

"That was close!" Mingyu felt a little scared. The Jingying people do not sweat, and their facial expressions are not rich, but the horror in their eyes is revealed.

If the power of this axe was stronger, he would have been beheaded.

Mingyu looked at Ji Xinghuo on the opposite side, "He is only level 4, but he can threaten my life. No wonder Huizhu looks at him differently."

"Do you still want to fight?" Ji Xinghuo raised the battle axe in his hand.

"You passed the test."

Mingyu looked at the timer on the sidelines. It was not even 1 star moment. Although it was a bit embarrassing, he still recognized Ji Xinghuo's strength.

After saying that, Mingyu flew up and fell into the room above the arena, looking quite embarrassed.

Ji Xinghuo laughed secretly.

Mingyu's strength is actually very strong, but he happens to be a halo fighter, who relies heavily on close combat and martial arts. He has microscopic perception and overclocked thinking, and his strength is strong enough to break through the light energy protection. It can be said that he was completely restrained by himself.

Of course, if it was a real life-and-death fight, it would not be easy for him to kill Mingyu.

Ji Xinghuo walked to the sidelines.

The Jingying tribe member in charge of registration gave him an approving look and said, "Our tribe is in need of powerful Eternal Day Guards like you. When the next batch goes to the mother planet, your badge will receive a notification message."
