“The other base cities have already opened. Is Langya base city so slow?” In the surveillance room, someone had been paying attention to news from other places. When he heard the people around him say that Langya Base City had finally opened, he looked up.

“Slow?”

There were a total of three examiners in charge of supervision in the monitoring room, representing three factions: the martial arts academy, the military, and the Nine Provinces Federation.

Among the three factions, the Nine Provinces Federation dominated. The examiner of the Nine Provinces Federation asked casually when he heard an army and a martial arts academy examiner beside him.

“Langya Base City is a Yellow-Level Base City. It can be said to be at the bottom of the hierarchy. When such a base city discovers that there’s a problem with the mystic realm, the speed at which it seeks help is higher than most Black-Level Base City. There are even some Earth-Level Base City that have yet to be cracked. You’re telling me that this speed is very slow?”

The examiner of the Nine Provinces Federation swept his gaze across the two of them, his tone revealing a hint of coldness. “Don’t always focus on the five Sky-level base cities. If the Sky-level base cities can’t firmly occupy the top position in this test, they can withdraw the word ‘Sky-level’.”

“Yes.” The military and martial arts academy examiners looked at each other and lowered their heads to admit their mistake.

They had been sent to Langya Base City with resentment in their hearts. If it weren’t for the fact that the examiners couldn’t leave at will, they probably wouldn’t even want to come to this surveillance room.

Now that they were directly called out by the examiner of the Nine Provinces Federation, they did not dare to say anything.

No one knew what they were thinking. The conversation between the three of them was just a small interlude. It passed quickly.

In the Black Hole Mystic Realm of Langya Base City, the beast tide had finally erupted. The speed at which the beast tide erupted far exceeded everyone’s imagination. It was clearly a cleared mystic realm, but at this moment, a wave of mutated beasts erupted. There were actually hundreds of thousands of mutated beasts charging towards the camp.

Hundreds of thousands of them were not counted by everyone’s eyes. It was the number that popped up on the detector. Otherwise, let alone hundreds of thousands of mutated beasts, there were already countless of them in front of them in this rainforest.

Not to mention the hundreds of thousands of them.

In everyone’s eyes, there seemed to be no place in the entire forest that was not occupied by mutated beasts. When have those examinees ever faced such a scene? Looking at everything in front of them, they wanted to retreat and get as far away from the beast pack as possible.

“Little kid who has never seen blood, it’s better to retreat quickly. Hahahaha.” When a warrior saw the examinee retreat, he laughed and charged forward with his saber.

The beasts were too dense. Logically speaking, it was best to suppress them with firepower, but the soldiers on the same side were full. The initial attack of the beasts on the other side was only a feint. They would not send too many at once. This was the best time to kill the beasts with cold weapons.

By the time the beast king controlling the mutated beast reacted, there would not be such a good opportunity.

Feng Yin had received the deputy instructor’s tactful persuasion from the very beginning when he gave the order. It was only after he had divulged the matter and explained it seriously that the deputy instructor reluctantly agreed.

When the deputy instructor saw that the soldiers had achieved great results in the first wave of attacks under Feng Yin’s command, he was shocked!

He had been guarding this mystic realm for a long time. The beast tide had happened more than once, but they had never thought of using this method to resist.

In the beginning, the humans did not understand the strength of the mutated beasts. When they encountered the mutated beast tide, they chose Feng Yin’s method. Their losses were too heavy.

Such a painful price made many officers not dare to take it out again.

Naturally, no one knew that this method was applicable in the mystic realm.

Back then, when Feng Yin was persuading the deputy instructor, he had also directly mentioned the uniqueness of the mystic realm. Most of the mutated beasts in the Black Hole Mystic Realm were sent in by the myriad races to be the vanguard to exhaust a wave of human combat power.

At the same time, there were also many mutated beasts evolved from animals on the human side in the mystic realm. Such mutated beasts were born without control, unless a beast king appeared.

However, more than a thousand years ago, the human race had signed a contract with the powerful existences of the invading races. The content of the contract stipulated that low-level mystic realms were not allowed to release baby beast kings.

Middle-level mystic realms did not allow the existence of beast kings, while high-level mystic realms did not have any rules.

This contract was very unequal, but at that time, that senior was too talented. If he really risked his life, he could at least cripple two powerful races of ten thousand races. These powerful races were not certain that it was not them, so they finally signed this contract.

As Feng Yin was setting up the defense, he suddenly recalled the records he had seen in the textbook. Only then did he remember that the beast kings in the low-level mystic realms were not sent in by the myriad races. There was only a possibility that the beasts in the mystic realm had mutated or evolved.

The beast king had no inheritance!

It did not know the strength between humans and mutated beasts, nor did it know about the countless wars that had happened in the past. Born in a mystic realm, especially a mystic realm like Langya Base City, where humans occupied the dominant place, the mutated beast were afraid of humans innately.

Therefore, when they attacked, they would definitely choose to test the waters first. This test would give them room to maneuver.

With this as an excuse, Feng Yin successfully persuaded the deputy instructor and also successfully got the warrior to follow his strategy.

The strategy that Feng Yin had come up with was not very difficult. It was just that there were too many restrictions on this strategy, so many that it was difficult to discover. Coupled with the countless crushing defeats it had suffered previously, that was why it had never been discovered.

After listening to Feng Yin’s analysis, the three examiners in the monitoring room all stood up from their chairs. They looked at each other and gasped.

“W-why didn’t anyone suggest such a method before!” The examiner of the Nine Provinces Federation looked at the people around him and asked in a low voice.

“It’s too harsh.” The military examiner shook his head and looked at the surveillance footage. He said bluntly, “This method can only be used in low-level mystic realms. The military warriors stationed in low-level mystic realms won’t think about this. In their opinion, the firearms in their hands are enough.”

“That’s right! If we can suppress them with firepower, who wants to fight hand-to-hand?” The examiner from the martial arts academy sighed. His gaze on Feng Yin softened. “This kid is really a good seedling who was born to command.”

“There’s no hurry to come to a conclusion. Based on what this kid has shown, it’s almost certain that he can enter the top three martial arts academies.

“Before the students entered the top three martial arts academies, there’s an entrance examination. This examination is a big test for the students who could enter the three top academies in the country.

“If I remember correctly, the content of this year’s examination should be to place the candidates on the true Myriad Races Battlefield, right?” As the Nine Provinces Federation’s examiner spoke, he looked at the martial arts academy’s examiner on the left.

The martial arts academy’s examiner thought about the news he had heard and nodded. “Most likely. You also know that those three old fellows like to change the questions at the last minute. I’m not sure if it will be this in the end. If nothing goes wrong, it will be this.”

“Then let’s wait for the exam and see how this little guy performs.” The examiner of the Nine Provinces Federation nodded. He thought for a moment and said, “I suggest raising this little guy’s genius level. How about that?”

“I second that.” The other two replied in unison.
