Mutation signifies two scenarios: the common one is premature death, meaning survival is impossible. However, the less common scenario is thriving and becoming stronger than its peers! This snow-white Furious Beast clearly belongs to the latter category, growing even more powerful!
"This is the aura of a Third Stage!" Although Ye Yu couldn't summon Mental Power, he had fought against many with Third Stage combat abilities and quickly sensed the opponent's general strength.
"Third Stage! We are not even enough to fill its gaps," Nasha, already a master of the fourth stage of physical arts, understood what this level of power meant.
"Even if we can't win, we still have to fight!" Wang Jiu said with rare bravado, already setting up the Laser Cannon aimed at the location of the mutated Furious Beast.
"Prepare the fire net!" Ye Yu was not one to give up easily and immediately commanded!
At that moment, everyone raised their Phase Guns, aiming in different directions. Of course, these positions were calculated in advance to ensure they could lock onto several possible paths the mutated Furious Beast might take. However, with only four Phase Guns and one Laser Cannon, the range they could cover was quite limited.
"Fire!" Ye Yu commanded instantly!
"Eleven o'clock direction! Thirty-degree angle!" Ye Yu called out a shooting direction and angle, and simultaneously, five beams of Crimson Light shot out in an instant.
The searing lasers struck the location of the mutated Furious Beast, but the group did not see the creature fall; instead, they only noticed a shadow at that spot blur and then dissipate into thin air. Clearly, what they had just seen was merely a Virtual Image.
"Eleven forty o'clock direction! Thirty-five-degree angle!" Not daring to be careless, Ye Yu reported another shooting angle upon spotting a shadow.
At this moment, everyone shot with even greater speed, several beams of deadly light seemingly fueled by rage as they fired towards a nearby location.
"Twelve o'clock direction! Twenty-five-degree angle!"
"One o'clock direction! Forty-degree angle!"
"…"
In less than ten seconds, Ye Yu had reported seven or eight positions consecutively, but unfortunately, not a single shot hit the mutated Furious Beast.
At this point, Ye Yu could clearly sense that the Furious Beast was now less than ten meters away. Given its strength, it would only take a second for it to close that distance.
Ye Yu's heart was already in his throat, and he could even feel a scorching, murderous gaze fixed upon him.
At that moment, Ye Yu's eyes brightened, and he instinctively blurted out, "Five o'clock direction..."
At the same time, Ye Yu was startled and thought to himself that it was bad! But before he could react, he felt a searing pain in his chest. An indescribable sensation instantly engulfed his entire body; he knew he was "dead."
...
"Haah—" Ye Yu sighed as he awakened from the virtual world. The heart-stopping sensation of death was truly unbearable.
"I wonder if we made it into the top twenty-four!" Nasha rubbed her forehead, looking somewhat fatigued.
"With the one that ambushed us included, we killed a total of eight Furious Beasts. For a five-person team, that should be considered quite good," Chen Tang said. He understood that for ordinary soldiers, killing a Furious Beast alone was extremely difficult. Typically, three soldiers would barely manage to take down one. By that standard, Ye Yu and his team had done well enough.
At that moment, everyone’s communicator received a message: "Congratulations on successfully entering the top twenty-four. Please prepare for the next round of assessments!"
"This time it was worth the effort!" Wang Jiu exclaimed excitedly; for him, every step forward was a surprise.
"Little Yu is still impressive; he led us to form a firepower net and accurately shot down those ordinary Furious Beasts," Xia Chiu never missed an opportunity to praise Ye Yu.
At this point, Ye Yu's originally pale face turned crimson; after all, he was just a twenty-year-old young man and still felt shy.
"What a pity! If it weren't for that Third Stage Furious Beast appearing at the end, we would have definitely achieved an even better result!" Nasha said indignantly. Her thoughts reflected those of the others as well. Although the academy's assessments were strict, they shouldn't have arranged such a monstrous challenge by sending a Third Stage beast against them while they were in their ordinary soldier state.
"Let's not dwell on that; the academy might be trying to tell us that without a properly arranged battlefield, unexpected situations can arise at any time. We need to be prepared in advance," Chen Tang comforted everyone as the oldest member of the team.
...
Summer mornings often come with thunderstorms, but Ye Yu continued to practice Mental Power and hone his body through it so that he could learn martial arts as soon as possible. Although heavy rain poured down on him, once Ye Yu finished his training, he felt invigorated all over.
At that moment, the Quantum Communicator on Ye Yu's person alerted him to a new message. A warm feeling spread through his heart as he instinctively knew who was reaching out to him.
“Brother Yu, Ling'er is here—” The voice belonged to Long Ling'er, whose holographic figure stood before Ye Yu. The rain from the real world fell upon her, making her image flicker slightly, yet there was a unique beauty in her ethereal presence.
“Ling'er.” Ye Yu called out lightly, extending his hand to ruffle Long Ling'er's hair. She playfully dodged the gesture, appearing both shy and adorable.
“Brother Yu's assessment ends today, right?” Each of Ling'er's words flowed like the cheerful chirping of birds, making one's heart flutter.
“Yes, according to the academy's schedule, today is the final assessment.” In fact, Ye Yu had only learned yesterday that the second assessment would be a free-for-all battle among the remaining teams, with a single match determining the outcome. He had shared this news with Long Ling'er yesterday. Although she asked again today, Ye Yu felt no impatience whatsoever.
“I just finished my exam yesterday; I got my results just now!” Long Ling'er said, her eyes sparkling with joy.
“My Ling'er is so amazing; you must have come in first place!” Ye Yu often kept in touch with Long Ling'er and naturally knew about her situation at school.
Hearing Ye Yu's words, Long Ling'er feigned anger and said, “How can you guess so quickly? That’s no fun at all.”
“Alright then, I’ll pretend I don’t know. Ling'er, why don’t you tell me?” Ye Yu understood that Long Ling'er wasn’t truly upset but played along anyway.
“Not that! I have some good news—do you want to hear it?” Long Ling'er paused deliberately before continuing.
“What good news?” Ye Yu asked instinctively.
