Tier 2 Upper Camp (2)
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
At this moment, the people from the ‘Kun’ Realm who had just come up from the lower camp also noticed Zhao Yu and the other three.” You guys just came up too?!”
“Yes, a little earlier than you guys…” Zhao Yu nodded.
The group of people next door had finally read the sign as well. They stayed within the yellow line and asked from a distance.
At this moment, another voice came from the other end.
“It has been eight months since the last fighter came from the ‘Kun’ Realm!” An old man at the front suddenly said in surprise.
The other four elders and many people behind him stood up excitedly and started quarreling in front of everyone.
“What’s going on?!”
Zhao Yu was a little confused. He didn’t understand what was going on.
If it wasn’t for the Super Brain Scanning Function, he would have cursed at the group of people opposite him, who were all second tier fighter, and there was no lack of high-level existences.
No one would be in a good mood if they were left hanging here.
The dozens of people from the ‘Kun’ Realm were also confused. They looked at the group of middle-aged and old people quarreling in confusion.
Vaguely, he could hear some words such as “it should be my Wang family’s first choice” and “it should be my Li family’s first choice”.
After a long while, the five elders finally came to a conclusion. They seemed to have reached an agreement.
The middle-aged men who were sitting behind them playing with their phones and computers also stood up and followed behind the five of them.
“What are you guys doing? Why are you leaving us here…” At this moment, a yellow-haired in the neighboring Kun area said unhappily.
Everyone looked at him..
Immediately after, the leader who is leading the Kun realm stood up. He turned around and said,” Shut up! Do you have the right to speak?!”
The yellow-haired guy immediately felt a sense of sorrow and quickly shrank back.
The leader turned around and apologized, “I’m sorry. I didn’t control my subordinates properly…”
“Hehe, it’s alright!”
The people present were all smart people. Naturally, they understood their tricks, but no one pursued them.
One of the five old men stepped forward,” Keep quiet. We’ll do the picking. Someone will tell you what to do after that…”
The old man looked at the leader and smiled.” What’s your name? You’re the leader of ‘Kun’ Realm, right?!”
The leading man nodded and admitted, “I’m Cai Xun…”
“Okay, okay, you’re the one. Come over!”
Cai Xun waited for a moment before walking out.
“We are the Wang family. You can call me Elder Wang. Don’t be afraid. It’s just a normal registration test. You can follow me first…” The old man smiled and said.
Following that, a middle-aged man standing behind Elder Wang stood up and gestured for Cai Xun to follow him.
Cai Xun turned back to give a couple of instructions before leaving with the middle-aged man.
Once they had left, Elder Wang stepped back, allowing another elder to step forward.
This time, he surveyed the crowd at the front for a while and picked two people, who were then led away.
After the other four elders each picked two people in turn, it was back to Elder Wang to start choosing again, this time he is picking one from each realm.
After several rounds of this process, Zhao Yu began to understand the situation.
The five elders and the middle-aged men behind them seemed to represent five families, they are here to select people.
Cai Xun, appearing the strongest, was picked first. As compensation, the other four family could picked an additional person.
However, these five families only picking from the ‘Kun’ Realm, and none seemed interested in them from their ‘Zhen’ realm.
Soon, only three people were left from the neighboring ‘Kun’ realm, and it was Elder Wang’s turn again.
Unexpectedly, two of the elders jumped out and stopped Elder Wang, “Wait, there are only three left, it’s not fair…”
But Elder Wang, still smiling, pointed towards Zhao Yu and his group, “There are still four here, you can pick them!”
“Exactly, there are a few more, what’s the rush!” The other two elders, similar to Elder Wang, spoke calmly.
This made the last two elders anxious, “Is this the same? These three are from the ‘Kun’ realm, a large group came up together, you all know what’s going on…”
“Those four from the ‘Zhen’ Realm are obviously unspecialized. How can they be the same?!”
Zhao Yu rubbed his nose. He did not expect to be despised by others.
He more or less understood the logic behind the elders ‘selection.
It should be based on strength.
In terms of numbers, there were only four of them. They looked like people with ordinary strength. They could have casually boarded the Sky-Piercing Tower.
The neighboring ‘Kun’ Realm was filled with a large group of people. It was obvious that the leader of the’ Kun’ Realm had brought a group of trusted aides here.
Everyone knew that choosing people from ‘Kun’ Realm was obviously easier for them to choose those with better potential and strength.
As for why they didn’t directly ask about their strengths, Zhao Yu guessed that it might be related to the rules of selection.
Perhaps, there had been unfair distributions and conflicts before, which ultimately led to the adoption of a mechanism similar to a blind selection.
So, was he to serve a certain family now?
Zhao Yu sighed inwardly.
He knew this place was not friendly to newcomers when he hadn’t entered the first-tier camp. Those who arrived first occupied everything, set the rules, and the newcomers could only accept them forcibly.
Unexpectedly, the situation was the same in the second-tier camp.
Moreover, looking at these people who appeared very old, it was clear they had been here many years before them.
“Three people can’t be split in half, so let’s just divide those four from the ‘Zhen’ Realm between the two families, two for each family!” Elder Wang announced directly.
The two older men looked at each other and voice their opinion, “Then the priority for the next round belongs to us…”
“Of course!”
The other three elders agreed with a smile.
Such strong newcomers didn’t come along very often, sometimes only once every month or two.
Only then did the two elders agree, and after that, they briefly discussed the first and second priority rights for the future and quickly reached a consensus.
Subsequently, the remaining three people from ‘Kun’ Realm were chosen, and each group left on their own.
The remaining two elders, too lazy to choose, had the first elder point out Zhao Yu and Yu Tie Jun, instructing his companions behind him to take them away separately.
The elder who chose later did the same, having his two companions take away Hao Yu Wei and Yang Hui Yan.
Zhao Yu wasn’t worried about their safety, as he noticed that the previously chosen people hadn’t gone far but were just in another row of rooms nearby.
As Zhao Yu and others reached the door of that row, one of the room’s lights suddenly lit up, displaying a row of numbers.
“360%”
“King Slayer Rank 3, indeed another powerful figure like Li Tian Ba!”
The middle-aged man accompanying Zhao Yu couldn’t help but comment upon seeing this.
It seemed that the room contained some kind of detection mechanism that could sense physical qualities.
Before entering an empty room with the man, Zhao Yu faintly heard Elder Wang’s loud laughter from behind, seemingly very pleased with having chosen Cai Xun.
Zhao Yu scratched his head and wondering what Rank 5 meant for them.
The room was small, only a few square meters, with a table holding testing equipment, a computer, and a printer-like device.
The middle-aged man leading Zhao Yu first sat behind the table, “Close the door and sit here!”
Upon hearing this, Zhao Yu did as instructed. As soon as the door closed, all outside sounds completely disappeared, clearly indicating excellent soundproofing.
After sitting down, the man began to introduce himself.
“I’m Li Bo, from the Li family of Black Stone Town, you can call me Uncle Li. What’s your name?”
“Zhao Yu!”
“Good! Before I explain the specifics of this place, I need to know your strength and conduct a test, alright?”
Despite the questioning tone, his stance was firm as he took out a form and started adjusting the testing equipment.
“Zhao Yu, were you an ultimate fighter at the zero level?”
“Yes!”
Li Bo nodded, checked a box on the form, and then continued:
“What about your level now? Did you reach King Slayer Rank 1?”
Zhao Yu hesitated for a moment, then nodded, “Yes!”
Li Bo suddenly perked up, his face showing the expression of finding a bargain, “Really? One or Two?”
“Five!”
