I just want to be stable, I was hung up and became a Valkyrie

Chapter 121 Climbing the Ladder

The news that the actual combat exam was postponed swept through China like a hurricane.

At least the few groups that Shen Qian joined were discussing this matter enthusiastically, and Shen Qian, who was so annoyed, could only mute his voice.

Later, Liu Simin called the students of class 109 to talk about it, but Shen Qian did not go because he was unwell.

Like Liu Simin, she couldn't tell why.

And Liu Simin and the students in Class 109 also understood Shen Qian very well. After all, Shen Qian was on the cusp of the storm.

The caring Lin Xiaoqian also sent Shen Qian a bowl of bird's nest...but the pitch-black color is really hard to swallow.

Finding that he had nothing to do, Shen Qian followed his previous good habit. After searching the map for the nearest Kyushu Budokan, he went out and went straight.

As a national chain, Kyushu Budokan has more than [-] chain stores in Mingcheng, which is far larger than Jingcheng.

The shop Shen Qian was looking for was at the end of the hotel street, with a straight line distance of no more than one kilometer.

What surprised Shen Qian was that his recharge card in Jingcheng was also available here, and it was not just a [-]% discount in other stores as Zhu Deyong said before.

But after thinking about it, the 100 million was sent to his card in the form of cash recharge, which was equivalent to the money he had recharged himself, so it was not surprising for GM.

After opening a diamond training room, Shen Qian hung up the phone with one button, and began to exercise daily.

After being promoted to a novice warrior, the focus of the warrior's cultivation has shifted from polishing the body to tempering the vitality.

But this does not mean that physical exercise is no longer important, after all, no matter how powerful the bullet is, the shell it carries is as strong as it is.

It's just that there is a primary and secondary problem in it, which is also one of the difficulties in cultivation, that is how to achieve the most perfect balance between the quality of vitality in the body and the toughness of the body.

Of course, even without considering systemic factors, this problem does not exist for Shen Qian.

Because he practiced a bug-level body training method... "Prime Ancient—The First Chapter of Body Training".

Before Shen Qian's breakthrough, the magical effect of the "immemorial formula" was not fully revealed. It was not until Shen Qian's breakthrough that this formula revealed the real mystery from ancient times.

He can actually polish his body while absorbing vitality!

Alternatively, Shen Qian could choose to compress his vitality while tempering his body.

For normal warriors, these two processes are independent of each other, one ebbs and the other ebbs and flows repeatedly.

But Shen Qian was different.

As long as the "Prime Ancient Art" exists, Shen Qian's body and vitality will naturally maintain a perfect balance.

"Prime Ancient—The First Chapter of Body Refining" is definitely a practice that violates the common sense in textbooks.

As for mental strength, Shen Qian feels that he does not need to practice much. As long as he visualizes the taboo projection of "Hunyuan Chapter" for 10 minutes every day, his mental strength will be like a wild horse that has run away, and he will never return on the road of thousands of miles. .

Shen Qian didn't know if Big Brother Gao believed that he would be able to practice these two ancient methods, and he was also not sure if Big Brother Gao made every disciple try it.

But Shen Qian has gradually felt the great value of these two training maps.

Although it is only the first chapter, it is enough for him to practice all the way to the realm of mountains and seas.

……

When Shen Qian woke up from the third exercise cycle, it was already the dusk of the second day.

Shen Qian was lying on the carpet in the training room, with the dim light shining on him through the window, everything was quiet at this moment, watching the clock on the wall pointing to eight o'clock, Shen Qian rushed to panic for no reason.

It was a strange feeling of being abandoned by the world.

Shaking his head, Shen Qian quickly dispelled the distracting thoughts, and when his hands and feet regained some strength, he took the bracelet and looked at it.

There is no important information, except that Gu Zifang asked him twice at the meal time if he wanted to have dinner together, which vaguely revealed some concern.

Ding Yi was probably completely involved in the closed training, since he lost contact with Mingcheng that day.

... Huo Ling'er has a lot to share every day. Since the day before yesterday, there have been 99+ unread messages. Due to some strange concerns, Shen Qian has not clicked on them.

After turning over, Shen Qian asked the Budokan to deliver steaks and juices for ten people. After eating half full, he came to the simple simulator in the corner.

He needed to test his progress after a full day of training.

Although only in terms of induction, the vitality in the body has grown stronger visible to the naked eye.

Putting on the helmet, Shen Qian exhaled and opened his voice, carefully comprehending the process of gathering vitality, and then punched the sixth senior brother who was opposite to him.

...It's not aimed at Liu Changqing, but after watching it for a long time, I somehow feel that the sixth brother is quite kind.

After waiting for a few seconds, a row of data jumped out.

"...

Explosive force: 1147 Kg
Instantaneous speed: 2.1 s/[-] meters
......"

Shen Qian stared at the two lines of data and nodded in satisfaction.

Yesterday he didn't practice because of the exam, and when he took the physical fitness test the day before yesterday, his strength was only close to 1100. After just one day of training, his strength skyrocketed by nearly 50Kg.

To be able to maintain such a speed of progress at the stage of a beginner martial artist is simply shocking.

Normal novice fighters from one to nine ranks, if divided purely by strength, the gap between each rank is about 100Kg.

A day's progress of 50Kg is equivalent to being able to advance from the 20st dan to the [-]th dan in less than [-] days.

However, as long as ordinary people can complete this process within three years, they will be considered qualified, within two years they can be called a "talent", and within one year they can be called a proper "genius".

This shows how outrageous Shen Qian's progress is, even faster than before the breakthrough.

Of course, the above are just the indicators of ordinary warriors, and Shen Qian, who has opened his ten orifices, naturally cannot follow the usual theory.

Judging by the quality of vitality, Shen Qian is still in the early stage of the first stage of martial arts. According to Shen Qian's own calculation, he will increase his strength by about 600 to 700Kg from the first stage to the second stage.

It is not as good as the previous guess that it is ten times that of ordinary warriors. There may be some reason for the loss, but it is also very exaggerated.

Although the increase in strength will be smaller as you get further to the back, but with such a large base...

It is not a dream for a beginner martial artist to be able to compete with a high-level martial artist at the ninth stage.

As for the speed, there is nothing to say. 2 seconds is a threshold, which seems to be limited by some kind of rule between heaven and earth. The immortal Laozi has no choice but to cross this threshold through accumulation.

After his energy was almost recovered, Shen Qian rang the service bell and called a young lady out of habit.

……

After half an hour.

After waiting for the cheongsam lady who was helping him to relax, she went out with a box swaying her waist, Shen Qian was a little dazed.

This massage...he didn't finish it.

Before I finished halfway, I just felt that I was not strong enough, so it ended early.

Miss Sister's technique is fine, her appearance is fine, and the cheongsam is still the same cheongsam...

But something just doesn't feel right.

……

On June 6, it rained lightly, and on June 16, the sky cleared up again.

The strong man who developed the weather system and became a prince has indeed made a huge contribution to improving the quality of human life after the catastrophe.

No wonder, the opponent was able to become king directly with his peerless talent.

Shen Qian stayed in the Budokan until the morning, considering today's situation is unknown, in order to maintain the best condition, Shen Qian did not continue to practice last night.

After breakfast, Shen Qian glanced at the bracelet strangely.

This morning, the bracelet didn't move.

It's weird.

The weirdness comes from the fact that those students who should have finished the exam in the morning batch were too quiet.

Shen's exams for the first three days were all in the second round, and in the past there were always people who would disclose some information about the exams in the group. Even Gu Zifang and Ouyang Fei didn't contact him, which was unreasonable.

In order for Shen Qian to "seize the opportunity", the two have always been very active in revealing the topic.

When Shen Qian took the bus to the examination room of the Provincial Gymnasium, he keenly noticed that except for the candidates waiting for the examination, the surrounding area was unusually deserted.

What about the people who finished the exam in the morning?

With this kind of doubt, Shen Qian thought about it and asked a girl from Jingcheng to ask.

Although Shen Qian was on the cusp of the storm recently, and the reputation in the hearts of Jingcheng people was not very good, but at least the girl was a little flattered by Shen Qian's face-to-face conversation.

"Ah, Shen Qian, don't you know?"

The girl said strangely, "The people in the morning haven't finished the exam yet!"

"Didn't finish the exam?" Shen Qian asked in surprise.

"That's right, we don't know what's going on. My two best friends haven't come out since they entered the examination room at ten o'clock. The teacher doesn't know why..."

After listening to the girl's explanation, Shen Qian was secretly surprised.

What is the actual test question, and no one has come up with it until now?

"Vehicles are passing, students all give way!"

At this time, a horn sounded from behind, and Shen Qian turned his head to look, and saw a row of military trucks slowly driving into the gymnasium.

"A dozen military trucks, what's in them?"

Shen Qian watched this scene, and felt that the things in the truck should be related to this actual combat test.

Forget it, it's useless to think too much, anyway, all doubts can be resolved in a while, so Shen Qian simply closed his eyes and rested his mind.

At two o'clock, the exam bell rang on time, and Shen Qian was waiting in the queue.

When the staff read Shen Qian's name, Shen Qian and the 20 people in front formed a group of [-] people and were brought into a room.

Shen Qian looked at the surrounding environment suspiciously. This room doesn't look like a formal examination room at all. The surrounding wall paint looks a bit like a warehouse, and there are even traces of heavy objects being dragged on the ground.

At this time, in the center of the room, there is a pile of instrument-like things covered by a black cloth, all of which are quite huge, and the black cloth has the sword and fire logo of the Huaxia Army.

When the staff waiting in the room saw that the students had arrived, they lifted the black cloth outside, revealing the very familiar machines covered with metal casings.

Martial arts simulator?
Shen Qian was stunned, so were these simulators brought in by the military?

Kexing Gymnasium obviously has a simulator...

No, when Shen Qian glanced at the room and found that there were a total of twenty simulators in the room, which happened to be equal to the number of candidates in the room, Shen Qian couldn't help but gasp.

Is this the rhythm of a simulator for each person?
You must know that the simulators standing in the room at this moment are standard versions. Although they are not as expensive as the professional simulators for physical fitness tests, their models are the same as the ones in the gymnasium of No. [-] Middle School.

The cost of each one is in the millions!

Only public middle schools and some martial arts halls in Jingcheng are equipped with simulators of this level. That is to say, the number of standard martial arts simulators in the entire Jingcheng, plus a very small number of private ones, will never exceed a hundred.

And in this room, there are twenty sets.

Their group of students in the provincial gymnasium in the afternoon has more than 500 students, and each of them has one, that is, five hundred.

No, there are students from the other nine test centers...

By the way, the people who referenced in the morning haven't come out yet!

Thinking of this, Shen Qian was startled.

Different from the other students in the room who were just admiring, Shen Qian looked at the room that was obviously tidied up and suspected to be a warehouse before, the brand new generator in the corner and the intricate wires that were as thick as buckets, the more he thought about it, the more he felt Scalp tingling.

If it is true as he guessed, all martial arts candidates in the country will be equipped with a standard simulator per head...

Hey, what a big deal this is!

There are tens of thousands of candidates in Mingcheng alone, and it is obviously impossible for Mingcheng to be equipped with so many martial arts simulators, no wonder the exam has to be postponed for one day, no wonder some simulators have just arrived before the exam starts.

"What is this practical test?"

"Candidates are asked to take their seats. After verifying their fingerprints, they can log in to the simulator. After connecting the nerves, please do not perform any operations and wait for the next instruction."

Shen Qian was still in a daze, but at this time the invigilators began to guide everyone to take their positions, and it really was the standard for each person to have a simulator.

The shells of these simulators are brand new, either they have just been manufactured, or they have been sealed somewhere for a long time, Shen Qian estimated that the latter possibility is more likely.

The hatch opened, and Shen Qian walked into the simulator after verifying his fingerprints.

Bang!

With the hatch closed, there was no ink stain before Shen, quickly put on the helmet, and connected the nerve detector with the spine.

It was dark all around, just like the initial interface of logging in to the simulator before, except that there were no levels to choose from.

While Shen Qian was waiting anxiously, after an unknown amount of time, a ray of light came directly from the darkness, illuminating Shen Qian.

A thick male voice that seemed very close but also seemed far away resounded in the dark space.

"Hello everyone, martial arts candidates of class 2297!"

"I am Ma Gongzuo, the current Minister of Education of China."

A thick male voice greeted Shen Qian. When he heard that the other party was the Minister of Education, Shen Qian was surprised at first, but then he was relieved.

If the other party is facing millions of candidates across the country at this moment, then only the Minister of Education is the most suitable.

Shen Qian listened intently, knowing that it was finally time to reveal the actual combat rules.

"I think the students must have a lot of doubts..."

"For example, why the actual combat assessment will be delayed by one day."

"As for the reason, I think some students may have guessed it."

"At this moment, more than a million of your candidates can be in the same trial space. This is the biggest reason!"

"Students may not have imagined how complicated the site layout and equipment deployment are behind this. Even in preparation for this actual combat test, most of the military's simulator reserve has been emptied..."

"As for the more than 300 scientific researchers of our Huaxia Academy of Military Sciences, we have been debugging the data and upgrading the server since the night before yesterday, and have been fighting for nearly 40 hours in a row, and finally finished preparations this morning."

"I would like to apologize to the students who referenced this morning. Due to the limited manpower and space, even if everyone's actual combat assessment is conducted at the same time, we can only arrange for you to enter the venue first. We have been waiting for a long time!"

"But I believe the wait will be worth it!"

"Students, you are about to usher in an unprecedented actual combat assessment of the college entrance examination."

"That is, millions of candidates across the country are taking reference at the same time!"

The space vibrated slightly, as if it represented the noise of countless people.

"There are some special reasons for temporarily adjusting the exam questions this time, but no matter what, this is the best way to truly test your strength!"

"If you think that your actual combat is unmatched among the same class, then here, prove yourself in the most indisputable way!"

I don't know if it's an illusion or a psychological bias, but Shen Qian always feels that this sentence is like what Ma Gongzuo said to him specially.

"Although the temporary space for this assessment is simple and simple, the rules in it are very perfect."

"Now, if there is no malfunction, you will see a ladder appear in front of you."

As Ma Gongzuo's words fell, the platform under Shen Qian's feet began to extend to the darkness ahead, and in the place where the light was brightest, a wide white jade step appeared.

"After the exam officially starts, you have 5 minutes to prepare. When you step on the stone steps, you will usher in your first battle."

"And your opponent may be any one of the other millions of candidates."

"If you defeat him, a new ladder will appear."

"Every step of the ladder represents a victory!"

"And you will always only be matched against opponents with the same number of wins."

"Use the way of climbing the ladder to verify your strength..."

"Of course, it doesn't matter if you are defeated on a certain ladder. You can continue to fight against opponents who appear on the same ladder. If you lose three times in a row, your actual combat assessment will end early."

"And even if you are so unlucky, it still doesn't matter, because we will still rate you based on your strength control in actual combat, martial skill completion, combat skills and other aspects. Winning or losing is just a trivial aspect."

negligible?

Shen Qian always felt that this sentence was not right.

No matter how insignificant it is, it still means that it affects the score, so what if you want a full score?
The answer is already obvious.

Can't lose a game.

For Shen Qian, pushing all the way to the end is the real victory.

"Maybe there are students who want to ask, how to judge the influence of realm?"

"This is also our second purpose for preparing the trial battlefield."

"Your physical condition, no matter what it was before, will all be adjusted to a physique with 149kg explosive strength and an instantaneous speed of 10 meters for [-] seconds, that is, the standard quasi-warrior realm."

"In addition, you will not feel tired, so you don't have to worry about exhaustion in continuous battles."

Hearing these words, Shen Qian not only raised his head in astonishment.

Will everyone's physique be on the same standard line?

This is really good news for students with weak physical fitness.

But for those with a higher realm, this rule is not so friendly.

But in other words, the pursuit of absolute fairness is a fallacy, and the rules that can take care of most people are already a kind of relative fairness.

A real strong person should not have a realm in itself.

"Then now, students, get ready, the countdown to the assessment is about to begin."

"Don't think of it as an exam, think of it as a review of the past growth, a rare experience."

"Leaving the ivory tower of high school, you are about to face the real cruelty in the competition of martial arts colleges!"

"Perhaps... there will never be such a fair and burdenless battle again."

"Go and be hearty, go and show off your fighting spirit..."

"Warrior, have no fear!"

Ma Gongzuo's voice was completely silent, but it had to be said that Shen Qian stared at the stone steps in front of him, and his heart gradually became hot, and the inexplicable excitement made his skin crawl all over.

Compete with millions of people!

How many peerless figures from all over the country will there be?

Minister Ma was right about one thing. He might not have such a chance again in his life.

war!
Shen Qian also wanted to see, in the situation that he would definitely not intervene in the early stage of the system, how many levels can he climb up just by himself after being nurtured for so long?
A pleasant female voice sounded.

"Candidate whose admission ticket ends in 800001, your physical condition is being adjusted..."

"The physical condition has been adjusted, please warm up as soon as possible, the actual combat test will start after a countdown of 5 minutes."

Tick ​​tock!

The sound of time passing resounded in the dark space.

Shen Qian closed his eyes and began to move his hands and feet, adapting to the familiar yet unfamiliar body.

"...5, 4, 3, 2, 1!"

"Practical assessment, start!"

Shen Qian opened his eyes suddenly, his eyes were bright and sharp.

And the brilliant stone steps had already moved to his feet at some point.

Without any hesitation, Shen Qian stepped up.

　Originally wanted to add eight thousand words, but I came back late, so let's do it first.
