Chapter 1071 Start Of a.s.sessment

Qiu Yang tried his best to control his urge to grab the handle beside him. Instead, he just used his internal energy to stabilize himself.

The strong wind caused by the speed of the buses made most of the soldiers on the buses feel uncomfortable.

But, the most important thing was that, there were still some soldiers who weren’t affected at all by the wind. They were just standing or leaning against the walls. No matter how much the hover buses moved, they stood straight stably. It was as if the hover buses weren’t moving at all.

On the surface, Qiu Yang looked the same as them. He knew who those powerful soldiers were. They were the elite ace mecha masters who had high chances of getting into 250 Ace Mecha Clan.

Qiu Yang was a proud person so he didn’t want to lose to them. He just gritted his teeth and tried to stand up straight like those elite ace mecha masters. Only he knew how hard it was for him.

Finally, the hover buses stopped.

“This place is not bad.” One of the elite aces jumped down from the buses and was surprised.

They had stopped at the plaza behind the entrance of the base. There was a huge field in front of them. Some distance away, they could see buildings.

“This is a good place.” Another elite ace smiled in satisfaction.

They came to the unused prep department due to a series of coincidence, but some were caused by themselves. For instance, this elite ace had a very high requirement for the facilities in his mecha clan. Hence, he didn’t accept any mecha clans which invited him. When he finally saw a base that he was satisfied with, he became a little more serious with the a.s.sessment.

Well, he was just a little more serious. In his heart, an elite ace like him was a treasure in the military. The 250 Ace Mecha Clan wouldn’t bear to reject him.

Qiu Yang jumped down from the bus. He was shocked by the magnificent base of 250 Ace Mecha Clan too and his urge to join this mecha clan got even stronger.

“w.a.n.g Yiming, I’ll definitely climb higher and live a good life. I’ll show you that I’m not someone who you can suppress. I must get into 250 Ace Mecha Clan!”

At that moment, a soldier from 250 Ace Mecha Clan suddenly appeared in the plaza. When he saw that all the soldiers had come down from the bus, he clapped his hands to gain their attention.

There were more than 2500 soldiers so it was a little messy and disorderly. However, when the soldier clapped his hands, everyone heard it clearly.

Everyone instantly focused their attention on the soldier in front of them. Then, their eyes s.h.i.+ft to the epaulette on his uniform. He was a senior colonel.

Qiu Yang narrowed his eyes when he saw the senior colonel. He could feel a strong invisible energy pus.h.i.+ng him down. The energy was strong enough to make him feel his knees were being clamped tightly.

Fortunately, this feeling only lasted for a moment. Most of the soldiers thought that the feeling was just an illusion, only a few powerful soldiers knew what the truth was. They looked at the soldier in front of them fearfully.

This soldier in front of them must be a domain realm master! Only domain realm masters were able to give them such a frightening pressure.

“Nice to meet all of you. I’m the team leader of Team 02 in 250 Ace Mecha Clan, Liu Furong. Now, I’ll inform you about the details of your a.s.sessment.” The moment Liu Furong finished speaking, a huge virtual screen appeared beside him.

There was a map on the virtual screen. On the map, there were lakes, fields, forests, and mountains. They were linked by multiple small paths. At the end of one path, there was a green dot s.h.i.+ning brightly.

Qiu Yang looked at the map and concluded that the green dot was where they were currently standing at.

Liu Furong’s next words confirmed his conclusion. “Please remember this map. You will need to rush to your destination as quickly as possible.” A red triangle appeared on the virtual screen. “This red triangle represents your destination. Before you reach there, you’ll go through a series of a.s.sessments. I wish you all the best.”

Before the soldiers could reply, Liu Furong disappeared.

Everyone exchanged glances with one another. They didn’t expect 250 Ace Mecha Clan to leave them here and ask them to find their way on their own.

“This is too much.” Many soldiers felt that the 250 Ace Mecha Clan were looking down on them. Some soldiers even wanted to leave.

Yan Zheng, who sent them over, quickly took out his loudspeaker and shouted, “I won’t prepare food for anyone who leaves now. Additionally, I’m giving these hover buses to 250 Ace Mecha Clan. If you don’t want to go through the a.s.sessment, you can walk back yourself.”

This was the only way Yan Zheng could threaten his soldiers. He didn’t know if it would work but he had to take the risk.

The soldiers who wanted to leave thought about the distance between the unused prep department and 250 Ace Mecha Clan. Then, they turned around and decided to go for the a.s.sessment.

d.a.m.n it, they would die of exhaustion if they walked back. As for their food, they were not afraid that Yan Zheng wouldn’t give them anything to eat. He wouldn’t dare to do it.

The soldiers didn’t have a choice. They took their luggage and walked towards their destination. Some careful ones walked to the virtual screen and downloaded the map into their communicator. In case they made a mistake during the journey, they could look at the map and move to the correct direction.

Qiu Yang downloaded the map too. Then, he chased after the main group. After walking for some distance, they saw a dense forest. Qiu Yang knew that they must walk through this forest to continue their journey.

‘Don’t enter a forest!’ For some reason, Qiu Yang remembered this old saying. He turned serious. His past experiences told him that there must be something wrong with this forest.

But, they still needed to get pa.s.s this forest.

Qiu Yang waited for the first group of people to enter before going in. He only walked in when he ascertained that there was nothing amiss with the first group in front of him.

The elite aces around him waited to make sure that everything was fine before entering the forest too. There were 32 elite aces partic.i.p.ating in this a.s.sessment. There were distributed evenly. Some were at the front of the group, some were in the middle while some were at the back.

In the command center, the higher authorities of 250 Ace Mecha Clan were watching the big screen in front of them intently. The screen was split into different segments, clearly showing all 2500 partic.i.p.ants.

A figure suddenly appeared. It was Liu Furong.

“He’s back!” Yang Mingzhi s.h.i.+fted his body to the left of his seat when he saw Liu Furong coming back. He left a s.p.a.ce for Liu Furong and asked him to sit down.

Liu Furong walked over and sat down. He asked in a low voice. “Old Yang, where are they now?”

“In the forest. There’ll be a good show coming up.” Yang Mingzhi smiled.

“I just hope Little White won’t lose control of itself.” Gu Dongyang was a kind person. He sighed. The moment Li Lanfeng suggested to let Little White be the one in charge of this a.s.sessment, he knew that those people would have a tough time ahead of them.

“It’s okay. Little White knows its boundaries. It won’t kill anyone.” Li Lanfeng couldn’t help but laugh.

Yes, it wouldn’t kill anyone. However, it would torture those people until they hoped that they could die instead.
