One skill point per second, I turn fireballs into forbidden spells.

Chapter 41 unlocks Hell difficulty! Show off your Abyss title!

Qi Guoguang quickly noticed Lin Yi's profession.

An ordinary, unremarkable monk.

Same as him.

It's not a rare profession.

He instantly felt a sense of admiration for Lin Yi.

He was an ordinary mage, so he naturally knew how much of a disadvantage he was compared to other rare or even uncommon professions.

Those professions all have inherent advantages.

Looking across the entire planet, those who can become powerful at the seventh level or above are basically all from rare professions, and some are even legendary.

Qi Guoguang's achievements today are entirely due to his own hard work and struggle!
Since becoming a professional, he has had his share of unexpected adventures.

But more importantly, it's about hard work.

For the past eighty years, he has never stopped striving to improve himself.

"To reach level 42 in just thirty days, you must have encountered some extraordinary event, right?"

Someone spoke.

At this moment, Qi Guoguang felt some empathy for Lin Yi.

He said, "Even if there were extraordinary encounters, his hard work and diligence cannot be denied!"

"You absolutely cannot reach this level just by having a lucky encounter!"

Li Yuanjing nodded and said, "This young man is good; he must have put in countless times more effort than ordinary people!"

For a time, the high-ranking officials of the Dongjiang Provincial Education Bureau in the entire examination center, and even a small number of high-ranking officials of the professional alliance led by Qi Guoguang, all looked at Lin Yi with new respect.

At least they believed that they couldn't reach that level at Lin Yi's age.

He's so hardworking!
If Lin Yi knew what these people were imagining, I wonder what he would think.

No, I didn't, I'm just a lazy dog!

Li Yuanjing hadn't forgotten that Sun Liang was still waiting for his instructions on how to handle Lin Yi's special situation.

After a moment of contemplation, Li Yuanjing spoke up: "The last time we encountered such a formidable candidate was decades ago. Since we've encountered one again today, let's make an exception for him."

Let's reopen that level of difficulty we used to have.

The others were all taken aback upon hearing this.

"Deputy Director Li, that level of difficulty has caused far too many accidents!"

"This is too difficult for these test takers and is not good for their physical and mental development. Isn't this what you said yourself back then?"

Li Yuanjing shook his head: "Times have changed. For him, Nightmare difficulty is a joke, it's too easy."

"The difficulty we set was based on the first job advancement scenario. Now that a second job advancement scenario has appeared, those tests are no longer very meaningful."

"Of course, to ensure fairness, we will notify all 22 examination centers in Tianhai to simultaneously activate the Purgatory difficulty level."

Upon hearing this, Li Yuanjing's men felt a chill run down their spines.

They certainly knew what the so-called Purgatory difficulty was all about.

Simply put, the final dungeon battle has been transformed from an ordinary dungeon into a special dungeon tainted by the abyss.

Similar to the special trials for each profession, the difficulty will increase dramatically, and these newcomers will also come into contact with vicious abyssal monsters.

"Deputy Director, if we activate the Abyss difficulty, those without a special Abyss title cannot choose it..."

Li Yuanjing waved his hand: "Then let them display their Abyss titles. Those without Abyss titles will not be able to choose the Purgatory difficulty."

"Oh, right, add one more restriction: you need at least a Gold Label to choose the Purgatory difficulty."

"If this level 42 kid hasn't cleared the special trial before and doesn't have a title, then let him choose Nightmare difficulty. There's nothing we can do about it."

Li Yuanjing's mind was made up.

Everyone had no choice but to comply.

Sun Liang immediately accepted the order and left.

They sped off again.

Back at Exit 1, Sun Liang explained the new Purgatory difficulty and selection rules to everyone.

"Ladies and gentlemen, due to the addition of the Purgatory difficulty level, candidates who have already registered and selected their difficulty level will have one opportunity to choose a different difficulty level!" "However, I must remind you that the Purgatory difficulty level is extremely dangerous, and there is even a possibility of injury or death!"

"If you choose this difficulty level, you must sign a waiver of liability; you are responsible for your own life and death!"

"In addition, the final stage of this difficulty test requires entering a special instance tainted by the abyss's aura. Only those holding an Abyss title are allowed to enter; candidates without the title cannot register!"

"Candidates who wish to change their difficulty level, please raise your hands!"

There were only about 20 candidates at Entrance 1.

Changing the difficulty level is not complicated and there's plenty of time.

Therefore, Sun Liang followed the first-come, first-served rule and allowed candidates who had already registered to reselect the difficulty level.

The next moment, Sun Liang saw three hands raised.

The young girl, Lan Ruoyi, calmly raised her right hand.

At the same time, Zhao Kai and one of his underlings, who had also reached level 29, raised their right hands.

Sun Liang wasn't too surprised.

These three were the three candidates who had previously achieved the highest ranking.

Furthermore, both Zhao Kai and the other male student have rare professions.

Lan Ruoyi is an extremely rare profession.

They certainly have the confidence to challenge the difficulty of Purgatory.

"Three candidates, please equip your Abyss titles. Once I confirm that everything is correct, I will adjust the difficulty level you selected to Purgatory!"

The next moment, Lin Yi saw five large black characters appear above the heads of the three people, including Lan Ruoyi.

"Abyss Challenger!"
Most titles are obtained by completing special achievements or special dungeons.

It is usually hidden.

It will only be displayed when a professional chooses to wear it.

Clearly, the title of Abyss Challenger is not particularly attractive, so no one would wear it unless absolutely necessary.

But at this time.

Having this title is a very prestigious thing.

This means they have completed special class trials and have already encountered abyssal monsters.

Compared to other children their age, they are already at a different starting line.

Zhao Kai had always harbored some resentment towards Lin Yi.

Although there wasn't much animosity between them.

However, his previous words and Lin Yi's revealed level of 42 still made him feel like a clown.

Losing face in front of the goddess he wanted to pursue made him even more furious.

At this moment, he was staring at Lin Yi.

A malicious smile crept across his lips.

So what if you have a high level?

If you don't pass the professional trial, you still can't choose the Purgatory difficulty!
The difficulty level is directly related to the score you can achieve.

Even if you get a perfect score on Nightmare difficulty, it might not be as good as a high score on Purgatory difficulty!
Everyone turned their attention to Lin Yi.

Including Sun Liang.

Lin Yi was already dumbfounded when Sun Liang said he would wear a title.

Holy crap, this is so awkward!

Where do you wear titles?

He has never worn a title.

"Ahem, teacher, I would like to ask how this title is worn?" Lin Yi could only bite the bullet and ask.

Zhao Kai, standing to the side, was overjoyed.

Ha ha!

Pack! Keep pretending!
You clearly don't have it, you're not just unsure how to wear it!
