My citizenship is at risk

Chapter 109: Ten-Field System, Hela's Merit (33 Updates)

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have ridiculed you!"

Although there was a hint of reluctance on his face, Zhang Longhao still apologized to Liu Feiyu in public.

The results of the survey have been announced.

In the ranking of the second year of high school, Chu Mu jumped from the previous 11th place to the 2nd place. Except for Tang Yu'an who still had an advantage over him because of the strength assessment, the others had been left far behind by him.

The third and fourth places are Song Qin and Gao Shun. The rankings of other students have slight changes compared to the opening exam.

The most noteworthy ones are probably Liu Feiyu and Zhang Longhao.

Probably because he had been ridiculed too much in the past two months, Liu Feiyu worked hard to improve himself in the past two months. In the end, he not only surpassed Zhang Longhao, who was originally ranked 9th, but also surpassed the original 8th place. He is now ranked 9th.

And Zhang Longhao embarrassingly became the 11th place.

Looking at Zhang Longhao apologizing to him, Liu Feiyu did not feel the expected excitement and joy in his heart. Instead, his mood suddenly calmed down.

"Yes, I accept."

After saying this, he turned and walked out of the training room.

Just after taking a few steps, he saw a tall figure standing outside the door and couldn't help but stop, "Teacher Li."

"Well done." Li Feng looked at Liu Feiyu and suddenly smiled. "I have been observing you for two months and I thought you would continue to be a coward."

"You taught me that I have to take back my dignity with my own hands." Liu Feiyu clenched his fists and said softly, "I did it."

"Yes." Li Feng stepped forward and patted Liu Feiyu on the shoulder.

"you did it."
-
In the training room, Du Tan slapped Chu Mu on the shoulder and laughed, "Boy, I didn't expect there would be a guy like you in the second year of high school!"

In addition to their respective rankings, the second and third year students also had a common ranking. Chu Mu scored full marks in skills and combat, but his strength score was a bit low, and he finally ranked 7th in the overall ranking, and Tang Yu'an was 4th.

“…Senior Du, you’re too polite.” Chu Mu’s mouth twitched.

The third level of skill is enough to control every bit of one's strength. This guy must be using such great force on purpose!
"The preliminary screening simulation will be held in a few days. I am looking forward to competing with you." Du Tan winked at Chu Mu, then turned to look at Tang Yu'an on the side, "And you, although your skills are a little worse, your strength is still okay."

Tang Yu'an's fist hardened, "Then we'll see the truth in a few days."

There is no way he can be defeated in a fight, after all, his opponent is in the Soaring Realm.

But the loser does not lose the formation.

It is impossible to show cowardice.

Du Tan laughed, took Tu Yun and turned away.

Looking at the other party's back as he left, Chu Mu was a little worried, "Will I be unlucky and matched with the Soaring Realm by then, and be eliminated directly?"

He just realized this problem.

In Qingcheng High School alone, there is Du Tan, who is at the level of Soaring Realm.

There are at least 20 to 30 martial arts high schools in Longquan Province that are at the Void Realm. If we encounter them in the initial screening simulation, we will not be able to defeat them at all.

"No." Zhou Huan, who had not yet left, smiled when he heard this. "This situation has been considered long ago, so whether it is the preliminary screening simulation or the real preliminary screening, there will be no pure elimination rounds."

"In order to prevent the situation where outstanding martial arts talents in the Nayuan Realm are directly eliminated due to encountering the Tengkong Realm, the initial screening adopts a ten-field system."

"Ten-field system?"

"In simple terms, the matching system will randomly match all competitors, and each competitor will be matched with ten opponents." Zhou Huan smiled, "Except for ensuring no duplicate matches, everything else is completely random."

"Ranking by wins?" Chu Mu couldn't help but become curious, "But this way, there will be many cases where the points are the same, right?"

Losing all ten games means 0 points, winning all ten games means 10 points, there are only 11 possible scoring situations in total, but there are more than people in the initial screening.

By this calculation, there may be more than 50,000 competitors with the same score.

"Actually, not really." Zhou Huan shook his head slightly, "Because the number of wins is not the final factor that determines the ranking."

"The matching system will go through a complex algorithm-based process to get the final ranking points." Zhou Huan paused for a moment, "The ranking points depend on the opponents you defeated, the number of times they defeated their opponents, and the corresponding situation of the opponents they defeated, and will be traced back..."

"It sounds complicated." Chu Mu grinned.

According to this algorithm, every battle performance of every player participating in the screening will affect his or her final ranking points.

For example, if player A loses to player B, B loses to player C, C loses to D, and D loses to himself, then player A's performance will ultimately affect his own points.

Of course, the further the difference between winning and losing, the smaller the impact will be.

"Complexity is sometimes not a bad thing." Zhou Huan smiled. "As long as the contestants are not troubled, the more complicated the rules are, the more fair they are and the less likely someone will slip through the net."

“All it consumes is some extra computing power.”

Chu Mu understood.

Although the algorithm is complicated, for the applicants who have been screened, it is nothing more than ten random battles.

The process is not complicated.

"There are still four days until the initial screening simulation." Zhou Huan looked at the other high school students who were still in the training room, "Everyone work hard."

"Yes!"
-
"Hiss?" (Are you ready?)

The mantis wielded a pair of sharp blades, and excitement and anticipation appeared in its compound eyes.

Equally excited was Turtle, who was standing not far behind him.

They were about to conduct a very interesting experiment.

"Squeak!"

Hela made a sharp sound, and the eyes growing on her body were full of curiosity and anticipation about what was about to happen.

After only a few days, Hila, with the feeding from the mantis and other younger brothers, was promoted from the moment of birth to the third level of beast soldier.

This rate of evolution is extremely outrageous.

But if you think about the fact that the flesh and blood Hela devoured were all at the third level of beast soldiers, it doesn’t seem so outrageous.

Today, Hila's body length has reached thirty meters, and she is only one step away from reaching the fourth level of beast soldier.

At this moment, under Chu Mu's gaze, a crack appeared in the center of Hela's body. The crack spread rapidly, splitting her body into two.

New mouthparts quickly grew on the flat cross-section, and soon Hela turned into two smaller Hela, but the body length was still more than 20 meters.

One of the little Helas swallowed a mature D-level cosmic treasure not far away in one gulp. A look of satisfaction appeared in its eyes, and its body began to regrow at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The other little Hela moved slowly and crawled towards the wormhole that had just opened not far away.

Yes, wormholes.

Since Hela has the ability to share one consciousness with multiple bodies, Chu Mu wants to see if Hela's ability can break through the boundaries of space. If it can, Chu Mu can understand the situation on the other side of the wormhole from another perspective.

It doesn’t matter even if the experiment fails. For little Hela, it will just be a slight setback in her growth progress.

With Mantis and its predecessors around, this is not a problem.

Soon, Little Hela II entered the wormhole intact and could no longer be seen from this side.

Chu Mu couldn't help but look at Hela.

"Hiss?" (Can you sense the sub-body on the other side?)

"Squeak!"

Hela made an excited sound, but her excitement soon turned into nervousness.

When it reached the other side of the wormhole, it was besieged by some creatures it had never seen before!
Chu Mu's eyes flickered slightly.

It seems that this wormhole is the product of a supernatural civilization waiting in vain.

Unfortunately, Hela’s ability to describe is limited, and it is difficult to confirm whether the other side is the Human Alliance or other cosmic civilization based on her few words.

"Hiss!" (Try to survive as much as possible!)

Only by surviving the extraordinary civilization can you learn more.

"squeak!"

Hela responded and closed all her eyes at the same time, as if she was asleep.

This is a manifestation of its concentration of mind on a certain sub-body.

In order for little Hela II to survive on the other side of the wormhole, it can be said that it has tried its best.

Soon, Hela's eyes opened again, with a hint of joy in her eyes.

"squeak!"

Succeeded?
Chu Mu was delighted.

As a replica of the previous worm-like star beast, Hela has the same abilities. In the past two advancements, Chu Mu found two mature cosmic treasures for it as advancement resources.

This makes Hela's abilities surpass those of the former worm-like star beast in all aspects.

In addition to the ability to differentiate into offspring, Hela also has an astonishingly fast ability to burrow into the ground and a concealment ability that is not inferior to that of a mantis.

Therefore, it is reasonable that it can survive the powerful and extraordinary civilization after entering the other side of the wormhole.

"Hiss~" (Develop for a while, then...)
Chu Mu quickly explained what Hela was going to do next, and Turtle beside him kept adding to his comments.

Hela listened carefully, but her eyes suddenly became dull at a certain moment. Then her body slowly curled up into a ball, and her eyes revealed aggrieved emotions.

"Squeak~" (I can't feel the sub-body anymore...)
Chu Mu: “???”

Turtle: “???”

Didn't he escape from danger?!
Suddenly, Turtle thought of something and turned his head to look in the direction of the wormhole that had just been opened.

At this moment, the wormhole happens to be closed.

"hold head high!"

It made a short sound, alerting Chu Mu.

Chu Mu glanced at the closed wormhole and looked thoughtful.

A wormhole is a temporary channel connecting the original universe and the star abyss, but this channel is one-way for both the original universe and the star abyss, and even signals such as radio waves cannot be transmitted in both directions.

Hela's special ability makes it an "exception".

It can transmit information on both sides of the wormhole with sub-bodies that share the same consciousness!
However, such exceptions are limited.

When the wormhole closed, Hela's consciousness was blocked.

No, there's something wrong here!
There was a thoughtful look in Chu Mu's eyes.

The Star Abyss is very large, and cosmic treasures may mature and wormholes may open at any time here.

Even if this wormhole doesn't exist, there must be other wormholes.

Why is the consciousness of Hela and her offspring blocked?

"hold head high!"

The turtle let out a short, low growl.

distance!

Chu Mu's eyes lit up, and he had a new guess after Guigui's reminder.

Hela may need to be very close to the entrance of the wormhole in order to sense the daughter on the other side of the wormhole.

Therefore, those wormholes that are opening but located far away cannot allow Hela and its offspring to sense each other.

if it is like this…

Find another wormhole and you can verify this!
Original universe, Orlando Empire.

This is a huge empire that occupies tens of thousands of planetary systems, and its territory covers one ten-millionth of the Milky Way.

At this moment, in a corner of the Orlando Empire, on a planet called Qiushi Star, four powerful Flying Realm warriors were sorting out the harvest after opening a small wormhole and hunting.

"Huh?" One of them suddenly exclaimed, "Why is it gone?"

"What's wrong? Paris?" Someone next to him looked over.

"I just killed a worm-like star beast, and now I only found a small part of its body. It's really strange."

"Maybe it was swallowed by another star beast that came in?" The others laughed, "Never mind, we got quite a lot this time, almost enough for another blood baptism."

Speaking of this, everyone's eyes were full of anticipation.

Blood Baptism, a special baptism that a citizen of the Orlando Empire can only undergo once in their lifetime, has a certain probability of raising the source blood by one grade.

Such a baptism is extremely precious. They hunted more than a dozen small wormholes and finally accumulated enough opportunities to exchange it once.

"Thorne will be baptized first this time, and next time..." Several people discussed enthusiastically, their words full of expectations for the future.

A thousand meters below the feet of the four-man team, a more than ten-meter-long insect star beast had countless eyes closed, as if it had fallen into a deep sleep.

At a certain moment, those eyes quietly opened a crack.
