The first level of the Trial Tower, the inner space where Lin Mo is located.

This is an extremely spacious enclosed hall, covering an area of ​​1,000 square meters.

The surrounding walls were made of an unknown black metal, exuding a cold aura.

Attention test takers!

An announcement rang out:

"The first layer of monsters will arrive on the battlefield via the teleportation array in 60 seconds!"

"Please adjust your combat stance! There is a basic supply box on the right side of the lobby, containing basic mana potions and health potions. Please take as needed!"

"Countdown begins: 59, 58..."

Lin Mo glanced at the teleportation array in the distance.

It seems to be a simple test of the damage output capabilities of these DPS classes. In each level, monsters will be teleported in through a magic circle.

[The Fireball spell jumped around excitedly: Hurry! What's wrong? I will wash this place in blood! I will turn this place into a crimson hell! Hehehe, let those ants wail in the flames!]

Lin Mo couldn't help but make a comment.

"Hey Xiao Huo, can we stop making this sound like a villainous big boss, okay?"

[Fireball Spell scoffed disdainfully: "Tch, boring humans. In this world, violence is truth, and destruction is eternal! What do you know?"]

Lin Mo sighed, "Fine, fine, but could you please stop laughing like that all the time?"

[Earth Shield Spell chimed in timidly: Yeah, bro, you're too aggressive. Can't you be a little more composed like me?]

[Fireball Spell scoffed: "Learning from you? Taking us all to the heavens?"]

[Earth Shield Technique, head held high in defiance: An accident? That was an accident, you understand?!]

"Stop arguing, the exam has started."

Lin Mo interrupted the skills' argument.

At the same time, the one-minute countdown officially reached zero.

Om-!

The teleportation array at the end of the hall suddenly burst forth with a blinding light.

Space distorted, and several short, ugly figures slowly emerged.

Five creatures with dark green skin, each wielding a rusty iron rod, burst out of the magic circle.

[Goblin Warrior, Lv.5]

Lin Mo raised an eyebrow.

Only level 5?

Still a beginner monster, a goblin?

But thinking about it, it makes sense, since this is only the first level.

"Alright, let Little Fire send them on their way."

[The fireball spell's flames surged instantly, emitting a chilling, eerie laugh: Hehehe... It's finally here! Now, turn to ashes in despair!]

A fireball instantly condensed and took shape in front of Lin Mo.

"go."

Lin Mo chewed on some snacks and mumbled out a single word.

The fireball, trailing a long flame, hurtled towards the goblins that had just found their footing!

Just then.

Rumble—!!!

The ground in front of Lin Mo suddenly trembled.

A massive, heavy earthen wall rose up two meters in front of Lin Mo, shielding him behind it.

However, it also blocked the fireball that was about to wreak havoc.

boom--! ! !

Sparks flew everywhere, and smoke filled the air.

As for the five goblins that were preparing to charge, they showed a hint of confusion on their faces.

What is that human doing?

Are human tactics... really this abstract now?

Behind the earthen wall.

Lin Mo's lips twitched violently.

[The Fireball spell was dumbfounded: ? ? ?]

[The "Fireball" spell completely exploded: Are you crazy? Are you fucking insane? Why are you stopping me?]

[Fireball Spell Continuous Output: I just shouted "Turn to ashes!" and you pull this on me? Don't I have any dignity?]

Faced with his elder brother's roar, Earth Shield whispered in defense.

[Earth Shield Spell] cowered weakly: I...I was just worried those monsters might hurt Master...]

[Fireball Spell] Roar: Hurt my master? With those few pieces of trash? Are you questioning my strength?

[Earth Shield Technique whispering: Safety first... As long as Master is alright... Besides, look, even you couldn't blow through my wall, which means I'm pretty powerful.]

[Fireball: I'll kill you!]

"That's enough!"

Lin Mo slapped his forehead, feeling his blood pressure rise.

"Can you guys just shut up? This is an exam, broadcast live across the whole city! Can't you give me some face?"

Lin Mo took a deep breath and said calmly:

"Xiao Tu, to be fair, your intentions are good, but you need to understand the situation."

"With just a few level 5 mobs, there's absolutely no need to use Earth Flow Wall. Besides, if you insist on using it, you have to wait for your older brother to fly out first. Do you understand the importance of teamwork?"

After being scolded by its master, the "Earth Shield" spell completely lost its power.

[Earth Shield Technique bows its head in remorse: I'm sorry, Master... I was just too nervous... I was wrong.]

Seeing Lin Mo standing on his side, 'Fireball' looked smug.

[Fireball, hands on hips, laughing loudly: "Did you hear me, you coward?! Get out of my way! Don't block my way!"]

[Earth Shield Spell draws circles in frustration: Okay...]

Lin Mo turned to soothe his irritable older brother:

"Alright, Little Fire, don't be so unreasonable. It's time to send those goblins on their way."

at this time,

The goblins outside also realized what was happening.

They are not very intelligent and do not understand what this human is doing; they only know that they want to kill all humans.

"quack!"

The goblins charged forward, brandishing their iron clubs and yelling wildly.

Lin Mo's eyes turned cold, and then a thought struck him.

The thick wall of earth in front of them instantly turned into quicksand and merged back into the ground.

Suddenly, the view opened up.

The lead goblin raised its iron club, a ferocious grin spreading across its face.

[Fireball Spell: Laugh? Just wait and see how you cry! Die!]

A blazing fireball instantly took shape.

The fireball trembled violently the moment it was launched.

"Multiple Explosive Fireballs!"

What was originally a single fireball instantly transformed into fifteen explosive fireballs, precisely locking onto the five pitiful goblins in front of them.

With both class level and skill level overwhelming them, the goblins were utterly powerless to fight back.

Boom boom boom boom boom boom—!!!

Flames shot into the sky, and waves of heat rolled in.

The narrow, fan-shaped area instantly turned into a sea of ​​fire.

The five goblins were instantly subdued.

……

The professional examination monitoring and command center, VIP room.

"Good! Good! Good!"

Zhao Lei suddenly slapped his thigh.

He pointed to one of the screens, his face full of pride and satisfaction:

"Old Xu! Did you see that? My Xiaoyu not only mastered the [Multiple Exploding Fireballs] technique, but he also split it into five fireballs, each one hitting its target with pinpoint accuracy!"

"This kind of micro-management, this kind of talent, Mr. Xu, this is absolutely the ceiling for this year's candidates in Jianghai City!"

However, the expected praise from Mr. Xu did not materialize.

"Old Xu?"

Zhao Lei looked at Xu Wenchang with some confusion.

"Shut up."

Xu Wenchang suddenly spoke, then sternly ordered the technicians:

"Rewind Lin Mo's video for ten seconds! Slow it down tenfold!"

"yes!"

The technicians did as instructed immediately.

The images on the big screen switched instantly, and time began to flow backward.

Zhao Lei had been focusing all his attention on his son Zhao Yu and hadn't noticed what was happening with Lin Mo.

Looking at Old Xu's expression, he keenly sensed that something was amiss.

Could it be that Lin Mo was caught cheating?

That would be wonderful.

On the screen, the image began to play in slow motion.

In slow motion, everyone could clearly see the fireball trembling violently in the air before it began to split apart...

One... two... five... ten...

Fifteen!

"this……"

Zhao Lei suddenly jumped up from the sofa.

"Ten...fifteen?!"

"How the hell is this possible?!"
