Chapter 123: 113: Combat Assessment! Spiritual Nature Enhancements! (Extra for the Sixty Thousand Cheers of the Metal Alliance)

```

Each year, for students whose physical quality has not reached Level 15, Kunlun Martial Arts University prepares two combat assessments.

One is at the end of July each year.

One is at the end of February each year.

Both are in the first month after the start of school.

The combat assessment does not discriminate by grade level but is based on each person's skills and physical quality, allowing entry to the First to Fifth Combat Assessment Bases.

It ensures that the students participating in the same combat assessment base have a not so disparate strength from each other.

Basically, those who participate in the combat assessments are freshmen up to junior students, and a few seniors.

Seniors? Almost none.

Because, after four to five years of university cultivation, even if the skills have not yet broken through to the Fourth Level, reaching above Level 15 in physical quality is not considered difficult.

Physical quality reaching Level 15?

They are no longer participating in combat assessments.

Instead, they begin to enter various Star Realms, to engage in life and death adventures.

Level 15, coupled with Third Stage High Rank, or even Third Stage Perfection skills, is already strong enough.

In many battles within the First Level Star Realm, they can play a huge role.

...On the morning of July 30th, students from each institute have already selected suitable weapons from the Armory.

Li Yuan still followed the usual routine, a long spear over two meters, plus a long knife, and a short knife.

There were also protective clothing, battle boots, and soft armor, etc.

All of them were of the highest order of the First Rank; both their defensive capabilities and toughness were extremely strong.

"Brother Yuan, you're going to the Fourth Base?" An Nong was surprised inside, but showed no emotion on the surface.

"What?"

"Brother Yuan is going to the Fourth Base; aren't we all going to the First Base?"

"I'm in the First Base."

"I'm also in the First Base."

"Can our institute's group total score still be achieved?" Suddenly, freshmen from the Sixth Institute began discussing in low voices.

They weren't panicking; they had assumed that Li Yuan would lead them to slaughter their way through the First Base.

This past month, Li Yuan actually failed to fulfill the 'Big Brother's' responsibilities.

But with Gu Qianghan and An Nong coordinating in the middle, there was no problem.

Martial Arts University, unlike a cultural university, does not engage in various activities.

The students' main focus is on cultivating themselves.

"What is there to discuss?" Gu Qianghan said in a deep voice: "I've looked into it, and there are more than just Brother Yuan going to higher-level bases."

"Yang Hong, Wu Luo, are the same," Gu Qianghan's voice was resolute: "They are all going to the Second Base."

"Brother Yuan going to the Fourth Base exactly shows his extraordinary strength," Gu Qianghan eyes swept over: "Any problem with that?"

The crowd fell quiet immediately, they were simply having a discussion.

Moreover.

Li Yuan, as a freshman, making it to the Fourth Base on his first combat assessment, spoke for itself.

"Everyone need not worry too much."

"Yesterday, I had already studied the rules," An Nong said smiling: "In the combat assessments, the group scores for the eight institutes are by grade level."

"Every institute adds the total scores of the top 200 students from each grade level, similar to the rules of the entrance competition," An Nong explained.

"What does that mean? Even if Brother Yuan goes to the Fourth Base, his score will ultimately be added to our freshman group total," An Nong said.

Many classmates listened silently.

Indeed.

Calculating it this way, where Li Yuan goes seems to make little difference to the group score.

"Furthermore, we must realize, Brother Yuan going to the Fourth Base is actually to our advantage," An Nong continued: "Even though the individual contribution to the group total score has a cap of 200 points, meaning even if someone gets 10,000 points, they can only be listed in the personal rankings, contributing only 200 points when added to the group score."

Li Yuan watched An Nong's 'performance.'

The individual contribution to the group score capped at 200 points prevents a single super genius from being too strong and hurting the competitive spirit of the majority of students.

"But you all need to think,"

"If Brother Yuan stayed in the First Base, killing one would earn only 1 point; how difficult would it be to get 200 points? His excessive slaughter would also lower our killing efficiency," An Nong shook his head, then suddenly raised his voice: "But Brother Yuan going to the Fourth Base, casually killing one would be worth dozens of points, easily achieving 200 points."

"Securing the highest score."

"Remember!"

"Brother Yuan going to the Fourth Base is not only for himself but also for us," An Nong said excitedly: "Brother Yuan is training so hard and diligently; should we just expect to rely on him? What's the difference between that and being useless?"

"We are the honorable Sixth Institute!"

"With Brother Yuan's full score as our foundation, couldn't we take first place for our year?" An Nong's voice grew more impassioned: "All brothers and sisters, tell me, what is our goal?"

"First!"

"First!" In front of the Heilong Building, a tsunami of cheers erupted in an instant. These students didn't necessarily agree with An Nong's words, nor did they truly believe that Li Yuan could command them just because he was 'Big Brother,' but if they could benefit together, why not shout a slogan?

This scene made the older students from the Sixth Institute in the distance exchange glances.

"Such unity!"

"The freshmen are far more united than us, the sophomores and juniors."

"That junior called Li Yuan really has a way with people; he can twist so many people into a single thread, or at least on the surface, they all seem to agree. That's already quite impressive," discussed these older Sixth Institute students casually. Searᴄh the nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

In a month since enrolling, Li Yuan's fame at Kunlun Martial University had grown significantly.

At least, almost all students from the Sixth Institute on campus had basically recognized Li Yuan.

Shortly thereafter.

Everyone went underground in turn, according to the combat assessment base they were headed to.

Here, just like at Jiangbei Martial University, was an exceedingly large train station platform.

One by one, trains were stationed here.

...

Li Yuan left the freshman team, even bypassing the main team of sophomores.
