Chapter 216 - 216 The Arena Begins, The First Person to Challenge Lu Yan (1)
Previously, when the first round of the achievement mission of the national new student exchange competition began, Lu Yan guessed that the achievement missions of the entire national new student exchange competition was probably going to be triggered separately.
Lu Yan originally thought that his new achievement mission would be activated after clearing the secret realm. Now, it seemed that the entire individual competition was an achievement mission.
There should be a new achievement mission in the team competition in the future.
[Achievement Mission: Individual Competition of the National New Student Exchange Competition]
[Host, please obtain first place in the individual competition. The top ten in the country can obtain rewards. The higher the ranking, the richer the rewards.]
Looking at this achievement mission, Lu Yan nodded slightly.
Currently, he could not tell what the rewards of this achievement mission were, but they should be richer than the rewards of the preliminaries.
The higher the ranking, the richer the rewards. Lu Yan naturally had to strive for first place.
Moreover, after completing the achievement mission this time, his achievement points would definitely accumulate to 3,000. He could obtain the 3,000 achievement points reward.
At this moment, the number of students who had passed the secret realm was increasing. As time went on, the rankings were slowly being confirmed.
The top ten rankings were already completely confirmed.
The top ten were basically all new students from the top ten universities last year. Among them, there were two to three universities that occupied two positions.
For example, there was Jiang Shangbai and Luo Qiushan of Qingbei University, as well as Song Qingge and Fu Tianhu of Demon City University.
In the Golden Corner Academy, there were three people who entered the top ten. This was also the only university that occupied three spots in the top ten.
These three people were Lu Yan, Bai Miao, and Bai Tianyu.
Lu Yan and Bai Miao were both the focus of the other universities, but the others did not expect Bai Tianyu to also be able to enter the top ten.
After all, this was the ranking of the students from all the universities in the country.
Although Bai Tianyu\'s ranking was coincidentally tenth, it still surprised the surrounding people.
"Bai Miao and Bai Tianyu, I remember that they\'re from the Bai family of the North River, right? The people from this family are all very top-notch."
"You really can\'t envy them. If they weren\'t top-notch, they wouldn\'t have been able to leave the family at all and will directly enter the ancestral grave. To be honest, I think the Bai family of the North River is quite cruel."
"The most shocking thing is still Lu Yan. He\'s fifteen minutes ahead of second place Jiang Shangbai. I wonder what outstanding performance he will have in the arena."
Everyone in the audience\'s gaze landed on the arena at this moment and they began to look forward to the arena battle that was coming up next.
This would be a very exciting battle.
Soon, all the candidates had already completely cleared the secret realm. The secret realm was over, and everyone\'s ranking and points were out.
Lu Yan was ranked first and had 1,986 points.
Jiang Shanghai was ranked second with 1,235 points.
Song Qingge was ranked third with 1,021 points.
Bai Miao was ranked third with 985 points.
Luo Qiushan was ranked fifth with 943 points.
…
Bai Tianyu was ranked tenth and had 638 points.
The points were calculated according to the time taken to clear the secret realm and the number of demon beasts killed. The time spent clearing the secret realm was prioritized over the number of demon beasts killed.
Lu Yan was the first to clear the nightmare level and killed all the demon beasts. Coupled with the enhancement of the hidden level, it directly made his score 700 points higher than Jiang Shangbai\'s.
Such points were enough to increase the difference between the Golden Corner Academy and the other universities.
The Golden Corner Academy was naturally overjoyed. As for the other universities, be it the instructors or the new students, they all had solemn expressions.
At this moment, the host went on stage again.
"Ladies and gentlemen, after an intense battle, the secret realm of our national new student exchange competition has been completely cleared.
"Next, it will be the individual arena competition.
"After the arena competition ends, the points obtained by the new students of the universities will be added to the final ranking of the individual competition of the national new student exchange competition.
"It\'s already close to noon. In order to let the participating new students perform better, the arena competition of our individual competition will begin at three in the afternoon. Everyone, you can have a good lunch and rest. I\'ll see you in the afternoon!"
It was almost noon. According to the procedure, the arena competition would be held in the afternoon.
Many spectators and new students began to leave. Lei Shuo and Liu Quan also directly brought Lu Yan and the others to the canteen to eat.
After fighting for so long, the new students had still consumed a lot of energy and needed to eat to replenish their energy.
After all, not everyone was as abnormal as Lu Yan and directly cleared the level without using much strength.
Yuna\'s face lit up. She touched her stomach and looked forward to it.
After eating for nearly an hour, Lei Shuo and the others returned to the villa to rest.
Lu Yan and the others\' physiques were all quite powerful now. Before the competition in the afternoon, there would even be high level priests helping them recover, so there was no need for them to use the lunch break to recover their energy.
Lei Shuo and Liu Quan thus brought Lu Yan and the others to the meeting room and played some videos of them clearing the secret realm.
Lei Shuo looked at Lu Yan and the others and said, "These are the video projections of Jiang Shangbai, Song Qingge, and the other participating new students. Find the person you want to know more about and check their information. Learn more about the other party\'s combat strength. It will be helpful for the arena competition in the afternoon later."
Lu Yan and the others nodded and began to search for the recording of the new students they wanted to see.
Everyone\'s goals were different. Lu Yan and Bai Miao definitely wanted to get first place. The others might only be aiming for the top ten or the top twenty, so there was no need to pay attention to those who were too close to the front. They only needed to pay attention to the new students they wanted to challenge.
Lu Yan\'s main attention was on Jiang Shangbai, Song Qingge, and Luo Qiushan.
After watching for a while, Lu Yan had an understanding of the fighting styles of Jiang Shangbai, Song Qingge, and Luo Qiushan.
The combat strength of the three of them was different. Among them, Lu Yan was most afraid of Song Qingge.
Although Jiang Shangbai\'s recovery ability and combat strength were not weak, there was no need to worry too much.
On the other hand, although Luo Qiushan\'s area-of-effect attacks were relatively effective against large-scale undead, her defense did not seem to be too high. It should not be difficult to deal with her.
Song Qingge was somewhat troublesome.
This guy was a warrior and had the power of lightning. Be it an area-of-effect attack or a single-target attack, he was very powerful.
Moreover, his defense was not weak and he was an all-rounded warrior. It was probably somewhat troublesome to deal with him.
However, it was only going to be slightly troublesome.
With Lu Yan\'s current strength, it was not a big problem for him to deal with these new students.
Soon, it was almost three in the afternoon. Lei Shuo, Liu Quan, and the others returned to the arena.
At this moment, the audience had already returned. When they saw the people from the Golden Corner Academy return, their gazes all shifted over.
Most of their gazes were on Lu Yan.
Their eyes were filled with anticipation, hoping that this guy would bring them more surprises.
Soon, it was three in the afternoon. The host went on stage again.
"Everyone, welcome back. The arena competition of our national new student exchange competition is about to begin. After the arena competition ends, the final ranking of the new students will be revealed.
"Who will be the champion of the individual competition of the national new student exchange competition this time? Let\'s wait and see. Next, I\'ll introduce the rules of the arena."
"The rules of the arena this time are very simple. Those with low rankings can challenge those with high rankings. If they succeed, the rankings of both sides will be swapped. However, everyone only has three chances to challenge. All participating new students, please choose your opponents carefully."
"Now that the arena battle has officially begun, all participating new students can challenge each other. The challengers will be teleported to the arena. Every time a new challenge is issued, both sides will be restored to their peak state by a high level priest. All participating new students, you can feel free to unleash your strength in battle."
After the host introduced the rules of the arena, he directly left the stage.
The arena was then split into hundreds of arenas. After a challenge was issued, both sides would be directly teleported to an arena and the arena would begin.
Because only those with a low ranking could challenge those with a high ranking, Lu Yan, who was ranked first, could only wait for others to challenge him.
In the viewing area, all the spectators\' gazes landed on the arena in front of them, looking forward to the first battle.
Not everyone\'s goal was to become the number one new student. Every new student had their own challenge ranking goal. Coupled with the fact that they had three challenge opportunities, many students quickly started challenging one another.
As long as these students told the referee the name of the new student they wanted to challenge, both sides would be directly teleported to the arena.
A large portion of the audience\'s gazes landed on Lu Yan, prepared to see who would choose to Many gazes in the audience instantly shifted over. They were slightly stunned when they saw Lu Yan 10:49
and Luo Qiushan appear in an arena.
challenge Lu Yan first.
Jiang Shangbai and the others\' gazes also landed on Lu Yan. Their goal was all to become the number one new student. The person they wanted to challenge was naturally Lu Yan. However, they were still somewhat hesitant about being the first one to challenge Lu Yan.
Jiang Shangbai wanted to see the exact situation of others challenging Lu Yan first so that he could better deal with the situation.
Song Qingge was somewhat hesitant. He took the battle with Lu Yan very seriously, so it was somewhat difficult for him to make up his mind for a moment.
In the end, Luo Qiushan was the first to choose Lu Yan to fight.
A light instantly enveloped Luo Qiushan and Lu Yan. Then, their figures disappeared and appeared in the arena.
Many gazes in the audience instantly shifted over. They were slightly stunned when they saw Lu Yan and Luo Qiushan appear in an arena.
They did not expect Luo Qiushan to choose to challenge Lu Yan first.
Jiang Shangbai and the others also shifted their gaze, prepared to watch Lu Yan and Luo Qiushan\'s battle and think of a way to deal with Lu Yan.
In the arena, Lu Yan looked at Luo Qiushan in front of him and was also somewhat surprised.
However, Lu Yan then entered a combat state. He raised the Black Bone Scythe in his hand and undead began to appear around him.
Luo Qiushan looked at Lu Yan in front of her, and her expression also became solemn.
She had watched Lu Yan\'s clearing video and knew how powerful this Lu Yan was, so she did not dare to be negligent at all.
She waved the staff in her hand, and wind power danced around Luo Qiushan, making her body slowly float.
This would increase her movement speed to the limit and increase her dodging ability.
Then, Luo Qiushan\'s staff suddenly blossomed with flames.
"Crimson Fire Sky!"
The flames quickly expanded and soared in the wind, instantly covering the area in front of Luo Qiushan and suddenly pressing towards Lu Yan.
Facing Lu Yan, Luo Qiushan did not dare to delay at all and directly used her strongest attack.
The scarlet flame pounced towards the undead in the arena, as if it wanted to burn them all.
