Mythical Era: My Electric Eel Clone Can Evolve Infinitely

Chapter 34: Spiritual Tools

"For example, whoever wins first place in their year will get thirty spirit stones and the second place will have twenty-five. The number of spirit stones will decrease by five until sixth place whereby it will decrease by one spirit stone. Let's say you get seventh place, you will be rewarded with four spirit stones, eighth place will get three spirit stones, and so forth. Only the top ten will receive rewards."

Chu Lingjun narrowed his eyes. What Zhou Anqi said was true!

"Sir, this means that the tenth place will receive one spirit stone. Isn't that too little?" Ding Peng raised his hand.

Shen Yanhu said, "I'm not done yet. The top ten students in the grade can also choose one Level One spiritual weapon or a firearm of equivalent value."

As soon as Shen Yanhu finished speaking, everyone's breathing quickened!

Chu Lingjun's eyes narrowed as he looked at Shen Yanhu.

The so-called spirit weapons were weapons and tools made of spirit energy.

For example, the longsword named 'Autumn Water' on Chen Zhiqi's back was a spiritual longsword that Chen Zhiqi's mother had specially customized for her!

This longsword was a Level One spiritual weapon. Moreover, because it was tailor-made and not a standard weapon, its price was close to 100,000 dollars!

"Sir, will it be a tailor-made weapon or a standard spirit weapon?" A student hurriedly asked.

"You can choose whatever you want." Everyone was ecstatic, but in the next second, they were quickly filled with great disappointment!

That was because only the top ten in the grade would have the chance to receive such a heavenly item!

Only Chu Lingjun, Ding Peng, and Chen Zhiqi stood a chance.

Shen Yanhu continued, "The exotic beasts you hunt during the examination will also belong to you. The school won't take a single share of it."

This sentence made everyone's spirits rise, and their depressed mood was instantly restored.

It had only been a month since the start of school. Other than those with special conditions, ordinary students had no clearance to leave the city.

It was too dangerous outside. As they had just started cultivating, they would definitely need a strong person to take them out of the city.

This monthly test was equivalent to their first time hunting exotic beasts outside the city under the protection of the school. This was the noble experience of going out of the city and fighting!

"Sir, what are the rules for this monthly exam?"

"The ranking will be based on the number of exotic beasts you can hunt. After three days, whoever hunts the most exotic beasts will be ranked first! We've already set up dozens of conspicuous loot collection points in the mountain.

"After you kill the mutated beasts, move them to the loot collection point nearby to claim your rewards. The drones in the sky and the teachers guarding the loot collection point will register the number and species of mutated beasts you killed.

"After registration, the rankings will be updated in real time. A watch will be issued to each student before the examination so that you can be updated as well."

Chu Lingjun, Chen Zhiqi, Ding Peng, and the others nodded. The school was quite thoughtful.

"Sir, what if we encounter an exotic beast that we can't win?" At this moment, a girl asked softly.

"Don't worry, the school has already considered this concern. Chu Lingjun, Ding Peng, Zhuo Chang, come over and collect the examination equipment."

"Yes, sir!" Chu Lingjun stood up from the ground.

Shen Yanhu brought the three of them to a camp not far away. There were a large number of green tents in the camp.

Chu Lingjun glanced around. There was a monitoring room with drones and an equipment room. As they walked along, they realized that most of them were emergency medical rooms with white crosses pasted on them.

A large number of doctors and nurses in white coats were arranging all kinds of equipment and medicine.

Chu Lingjun was impressed. The school was well-prepared.

Shen Yanhu went to the equipment room and spoke to the teachers on duty. He was given three large wooden suitcases.

"Each of you can carry one."

Chu Lingjun and the other two carried the wooden boxes back to the resting area. Shen Yanhu cut off the tape on the wooden suitcases and opened them one by one.

Among the three boxes, there was a fashionable black watch in the leftmost box.

In the middle of the box were crystal clear jade pendants.

The box on the right contained sheathed daggers.

Shen Yanhu pointed at the three boxes in front of him and said, "The three items in front of you are the only three items that you can bring with you for this wilderness survival challenge.

"Of course, except for those who practice sword and saber techniques. You can bring your weapons into the arena, but you won't get to bring this dagger in.

They were not allowed to bring firearms with them. Otherwise, the assessment would be meaningless.

"Distribute these three items to each student."

"Yes, sir."

Soon, everything was distributed.

"Everyone, I want you to wear your watch and turn it on. There's an on button here."

Chu Lingjun pressed the red button on the top of his black watch. After waiting for three seconds, the black screen lit up.

After a short welcome, an input box and a microphone logo appeared on the screen.

"Everyone, press this microphone and say your student number to bind your identity to it."

Chu Lingjun pressed down on the microphone and whispered his student ID.

"Binding successful."

"Everyone is bound, right? Next, look at the jade pendant."

Chu Lingjun looked at the jade pendant in his hand. This jade pendant was about half the size of a palm. It was milky white and crystal clear, like a work of art.

The surface of the jade pendant was carved with complicated and magnificent golden spiritual patterns.

These spirit patterns were dignified and obscure. Almost as if it contained an abundance of extraordinary power.

There was a hole on the top of the jade pendant, and a red thread passed through it, allowing the students to wear it around their neck.

Chu Lingjun examined it carefully, and the word spiritual weapon appeared in his mind. Obviously, this was not the first time he had used this equipment.

As expected, Shen Yanhu continued, "Everyone might have their guesses as to what this is. This jade pendant is a Level One spirit tool, known as a jade pendant shield.

"You'll have to hang this jade pendant around your neck. Now that you have to be in the mountains for the next three days, there will come a time where you might have to take off your clothes. It'll be pointless but you are allowed to run around naked. I'll be more than happy to take photos and post them online if you do though.

"However, you can't take off this jade pendant even if you die. This is for your survival! Got it?" Shen Yanhu stared at everyone and said in a serious tone.

"Once you encounter danger, immediately inject a trace of blood essence or spiritual power into this jade pendant. It will immediately activate a shield to protect you!

"This shield can withstand the attack of a Level One exotic beast for half an hour. That should be enough time for us to rush over and save you. Although this means that you'll fail the monthly test ahead of time, your lives are more important than a test! Understood?!"

"Yes, sir!"

Chu Lingjun hung the jade pendant on his body and stuffed it into his clothes, sticking it close to his chest.

"The last dagger is a weapon for you to use in the wild. It'll be helpful to cut meat and branches."

Ordinary students usually practiced fist techniques, saber techniques, and sword techniques.

There were only two people in the swordsmanship class. One was Chen Zhiqi, and the other was a male student.

Similarly, there were only two people cultivating in the saber technique class.

Why aren't there more people practicing this? Because sabers and swords were not cheap and practicing boxing didn't cost money.

"Right, in the middle of the mountain, the school has prepared a few boss beasts for the top students."

Shen Yanhu seemed to have thought of something, and a mocking smile appeared on his face.

"A boss?" Chu Lingjun was stunned and subconsciously looked at Ding Peng and Chen Zhiqi. The two of them also looked at Chu Lingjun in confusion. Before they could ask, the buzzer for the exam started.

"Everyone, the monthly examination has officially begun. Best of luck."
