No strange things are allowed to evolve!

But this time, no one laughed at him.

"This is my skill range. Anyone who steps into it will be subject to all sorts of negative effects," the referee said with a smile.

Jiang Shu nodded, indicating that he understood.

Unlike other stats, intelligence is determined by a base intelligence value. The additional intelligence gained through evolution points only affects a person's mental strength.

This is mainly reflected in the effects achievable through mental attacks, mental resistance, and the speed of skill learning.

While it can make the brain more active and enhance mental abilities to some extent, the improvement is not significant.

This is why Jiang Shu didn't specifically allocate points to Wisdom.

Since I already possess the Great Wilderness Heart and am following the Monkey Play Body Cultivation path, which won't make me any smarter, it's naturally irrelevant.

Unless you have so many evolution points that you can't spend them all, like after you've made a fortune from this competition, then you might consider adding more.

The method for this round of testing is then quite obvious: it mainly tests mental resistance.

That's actually quite reasonable.

After all, some people may be very intelligent, but if they haven't learned mental or curse-related skills, they might be limited when it comes to testing attack power.

But resistance is different.

This thing can be created simply by adding intelligence; no additional supporting measures are needed.

But just as Jiang Shu was about to step into the circle, the referee suddenly called him back.

"Wait a moment, I need to check if you are wearing any props."

"Oh, okay." Jiang Shu stopped and let the referee check.

As expected, the referee did not discover the Great Wilderness Heart, which had already merged with Jiang Shu.

In fact, if it weren't for the Great Wilderness Heart occasionally coming back to life at crucial moments, even Jiang Shu himself wouldn't be able to sense its existence except when looking at his personal panel.

All I can say is that this thing is too sinister.

But thinking about it carefully, it makes sense. Since the real thing is actually the bride's, it's not surprising that she would want to be discreet and shy.

"Alright." After the inspection was completed, the referee signaled to Jiang Shu that he could begin.

Jiang Shu didn't hesitate and stepped directly into the referee's skill range.

The next moment, the Great Wilderness Heart started popping up windows like crazy.

All the negative status effects, which were so weak they were almost pitiful, were detected and intercepted by the Great Wilderness Heart immediately, and could not even get close to Jiang Shu.

"Ok?"

The referee noticed something was wrong in an instant.

All the negative effects of level six intensity have no effect on him?

His eyes widened in surprise, then he asked, "If you're feeling alright, should I increase the intensity?"

Jiang Shu waved his hand dismissively: "Just add it."

The referee then increased the intensity of the attack.

Level 6 average, Level 6 top, Level 6 limit... Level 7... Level 8...

The referee should have ended the match when the average intensity reached level eight.

But Jiang Shu didn't react at all from beginning to end, which aroused the referee's strong curiosity.

He wanted to see exactly where Jiang Shu's limits lay.

But when you gaze into the abyss, the abyss often gazes into you as well.

The Heart of the Great Wilderness thinks so too.

Unfortunately, the Great Wilderness Heart is a mechanic-based monster with a reskinned numerical system.

It doesn't consider the strength of the skill or the user's level; it only considers the skill's level.

Even if the same skills are in the hands of the referee, if the director doesn't use some advanced technology and ruthless tactics, the opponent can only be a loli.

Soon, the referee started sweating profusely.

Because he had already pushed the intensity to his own limit—the pinnacle of level twelve.

But Jiang Shu remained unmoved.

"impossible!"

"Absolutely impossible!"

At this moment, the referee transforms into Cao Cao, feeling that the world is full of absurdity.

Throughout the entire test, the referee and Jiang Shudou remained silent, so the onlookers had no idea what was going on or what the mystery was.

When the referee suddenly shouted that, everyone looked at each other in surprise.

What's going on?

What's impossible?

Jiang Shu was also puzzled: "What's impossible?"

"Ah...no...no."

The referee wanted to ask Jiang Shu how he did it.

This isn't a question of whether it's reasonable or not; it's simply impossible.

Even if you max out your intelligence, do you think you can be higher than a level 12 evolver?

What a joke!

But he swallowed the words back down his throat.

First of all, there's definitely a matter of saving face involved.

If everyone knew that a level 12 evolver like myself couldn't do anything to a level 6 evolver...

Even a skill that doesn't fully represent one's abilities is embarrassing enough.

Secondly, and more importantly, he immediately realized that someone with such incredible abilities was definitely not a simple person.

At least I'm afraid I can't afford to offend them.

This might be their trump card, and if I expose it now, wouldn't that be like stealing their thunder?

If this is the reason why someone doesn't become the final champion, wouldn't they hate themselves to death?

No, no, I can't say it out loud.

After today's division is over, just honestly report to your superiors; it's best not to say anything unnecessary.

Thinking of this, the referee immediately changed his shocked expression into a kind smile.

What I mean is... I'm going to give you six stars!

"Six stars?" Jiang Shu blinked in confusion. "Why is there another half-star? What does it represent?"

After a brief moment of stunned silence, the crowd descended into madness.

"Six stars..."

"Ignoring the difference in levels?!"

Listening to the discussions around him, Jiang Shu finally understood the true value of a six-star rating.

The term "six-star" refers to strength that is not based on level. Its relative strength does not change with different levels. For example, the same strength is considered "powerful" at level six, but "NPC" at level eight. It is undisputedly strong for any level.

This is what is commonly known as a gap in supply!

At this moment, everyone's gaze towards Jiang Shu had become filled with awe.

What I thought was the limit, turned out to be just the beginning for this man...

But Jiang Shu was not happy about this.

Achievements not obtained through one's own hard work and perseverance are not very satisfying.

Alas... Heart of the Great Wilderness, you have truly caused me great suffering.

Seeing that the crowd was starting to get restless, as if they were about to lose their composure and rush forward to try and establish a relationship with him.

Jiang Shu, who suffers from severe social anxiety, seized the opportunity and slipped off the ring.

In the blink of an eye, he had arrived at the arena for the final test—

Speed ​​Arena.

This time, instead of queuing up to test their own events, everyone simply ran over from other arenas and gathered around the speed arena, wanting to see what surprises Jiang Shu could bring them.

This put Jiang Shu under a lot of pressure.

While his lack of intelligence could be compensated for by the Great Wilderness Heart, he truly had no tricks up his sleeve when it came to speed.

A speed value of 30 is exactly what it is.

Even more regrettably, the speed test was quite simple and crude.

Right in the middle is a treadmill.

Although he didn't know what kind of major modifications this treadmill had undergone, Jiang Shu could guess that there must be some hidden secrets involved.

This means there's absolutely no chance to do anything.

For example, one could use the "Pocket Watch of the Dead" to teleport, and then claim that their speed was so fast that there was no afterimage.

Before he could think further, the referee on the speed arena warmly invited Jiang Shu to speak:

"Come on, come on, everything's set up, just come up here."

"Does he have to be so enthusiastic..." Jiang Shu muttered softly.

He had already anticipated how challenging the test would be.

However, Jiang Shu still hadn't anticipated just how challenging this would be.

Under the watchful eyes of the densely packed crowds on both sides, Jiang Shu resolutely stepped onto the treadmill.

Then everyone witnessed a truly shocking scene.

Jiang Shu spun upside down in the air before crashing headfirst to the ground.

"Huh?"

The atmosphere became somewhat awkward for a moment.

But soon, Jiang Shu got up from the ground without changing his expression, rubbed his head, combed the messy hair on his forehead back, and his eyes were full of melancholy.

"There should be a limit to testing."

Upon hearing his words, the awkward atmosphere instantly reversed and reignited.

"So handsome!"

"My God, he looks just like Tamao Serizawa!"

"I've finished pooping, but it was incredibly tiring!"

Jiang Shu patted the treadmill.

"Although I'm quite good at some things, it doesn't mean I'm omnipotent. Today I'm going to teach you a lesson, and I hope you won't always look at people with prejudice in the future."

Jiang Shu smiled at the referee and said:

"If I'm not mistaken, you've already adjusted the treadmill speed to the average speed of an eighth-level evolved being, right?"

The referee shook his head and answered honestly, "Ah, no, it's actually just the top level of level six. Converted to speed value, it's about sixty or seventy."

Jiang Shu was silent for half a second, then burst into laughter.

"This is the second lesson I'm teaching you: you have to eat one meal at a time, walk one step at a time, and the most important thing in life is to be down-to-earth."

He snapped his fingers:

"Give me another thirty, and I promise I'll run it for you."

"Um…"

The referee pondered for a moment:
