Chapter 131 - I Should Be the Rookie King of the Year (4)

The Investigation Corps could only be considered a death squad. Their job was to investigate the dark fog, analyze the situation, and so on.

Those that could truly resist and fight back the dark fog were only those with top-tier combat strength.

Which is, only deity-rank beastmasters would be able to do so.

Becoming a professional beastmaster was the most direct path to advancing to the deity rank.

The country needed deity-rank beastmasters, so they naturally had to exercise strict control over the professional assessment.

At the same time, on the path to becoming a professional beastmaster and reaching the deity rank, many other paths branched out. Those beastmasters were also useful to the country’s development and progress, so their assessments had to be strictly controlled as well.

“Dongli’s situation… if a wrong step is taken…” Wang Ye didn’t even dare to think about it.

At this moment, as the scenery outside changed rapidly, Black Warrior No.1 slowly landed. Wang Ye also saw the location of the assessment, Qixing Plaza.

It was huge!

Just gigantic!

It was also filled with a sea of people!

Wang Ye felt that it might be half the size of Anping County.

“This place was originally used for professional competitions,” Ming Zhu and Wang Ye jumped out of Black Warrior together, “Every year, only on the day of the professional assessment will be such a grand scene of tens of thousands of people gathered. This is because the last assessment is the professional duel. In the Xinghai Province, there is a title called: Xinghai’s Strongest Professional Rookie King. The title-holder will be born in the annual professional assessment.”

After getting out of the plane, Black Warrior No.1 returned to its car form and automatically went to the parking lot at the side.

Wang Ye silently looked at the surging crowd in front of him.

There were rare pet cubs everywhere, bizarre mechanical pet beasts, and the vast steel city…

Ever since he transmigrated, Wang Ye had always either been going to secret realms, relics, or spending all his time simulating.

The only contact he had with society was the Investigation Corps.

It could be said that he was extremely lacking in understanding of this world.

The information he could find on his phone was limited.

If he hadn’t seen it with his eyes, he ultimately wouldn’t have known anything.

“How do you feel?” Ming Zhu looked at Wang Ye tentatively.

Wang Ye said thoughtfully, “I should be this year’s Rookie King.”

“…” Ming Zhu.

Very good! His mentality was great! As expected of big sister Lin’s favored investigator!

“Let’s go then. The first and second assessments will both be held here. It’s the beastmaster’s talent level assessment and the pet’s combat power assessment.”

There were a lot of people in the plaza, but it was still orderly. There were several long lines, and young beastmasters from the major cities and counties of Xinghai Province were all gathered here.

At this moment, a commotion suddenly occurred in a distance.

A man dressed in plain black suddenly walked out from a long line in front.

He had a cold expression and a slender figure. There seemed to be a crack between his brows, and his eyes were light purple. There were mysterious spiral threads in them that made him look very special.

The most eye-catching thing was probably the elf floating next to him. It was formed from pure water.

It was a water elf that looked like a little fox. Its entire body was made of water, an extremely rare Innate Elf pet.

“From the Investigation Corps?” Wang Ye looked at the man’s clothes and could tell his origins from the red eye symbol on his chest.

“He’s from the Qixing Investigation Corps,” Ming Zhu glanced at him, “Zhao Ping, an investigator who joined the Qixing Investigation Corps just this past year. He is very popular. He has a rare dual-sequence talent, namely Muddy Water Control of the Elemental Talent Sequence and Spiritual Eyes of the Noumenon Talent Sequence He is the vice-leader of the Qixing Investigation Corps and Ji Wuming’s disciple. His strength and talents are much stronger than many elites of the academies. His assessment just now must have caused a commotion. From the looks of it, both of his talents are at least level 2. His body’s overall strength is above C-grade, and his pet’s spiritual energy value is in the five digits.”

Wang Ye’s thoughts moved as he watched the person slowly leave in the distance.

The line slowly advanced.

The speed of the assessment ahead was quite fast.

It was very easy to assess a beastmaster’s talent level, so the test was mainly to assess the beastmaster’s strength.

“I’ll go and take the assessment first,” Ming Zhu cleared her throat, “I chose the fighter class, so my assessment is more troublesome since my strength and constitution have to be tested to see if they meet the standards, as well as if my talent meets the requirements or not.”

Wang Ye could see the process of the assessment when he came to the front of the line.

It was quite simple. At the end of the line was a circular platform. On the platform was an older beastmaster, the examiner.

In front of the examiner was a hexagonal pet that looked like a brick, the Hexagonal Gem Pupil.

It was the evolved version of the mechanical pet gem pupil, and could easily detect talent levels below level 4.

A beastmaster only needed to touch the Gem Pupil and display their talent, and the latter would be able to detect one’s talent level.

On top of that, different classes had different requirements for levels of strength.

For example, a fighter was usually required to have strength and constitution to at least be at the D-grade, similar to a pet’s six dimensions.

An aide who was more of to support would be required to have a soul that was at least the D+ grade. A tyrant who was focused more on firepower-based AOE attacks was required to have a spiritual energy attribute of the D+ grade.

A control-type warlock would need to have at least D-grade spiritual resistance and agility, and so on.

For people of different classes to become professionals, there were different requirements in terms of physical strength and talents.

If one had not chosen a class, the subsequent assessments would change as well.

For the assessment of pets’ combat power, the procedure was way easier. The pet only needed to inject its spiritual energy into the Gem Pupil, and the pet’s combat power, as well as spiritual energy value, could then be detected.

Moreover, the detection was very accurate. The difference between the detection and the one’s self-detection of the pet’s combat power would not be more than two decimals.

Wang Ye stood at the back and watched Ming Zhu go forward to take the assessment.
