Chapter 252: Luck Is Also a Part of Strength

The three-meter-tall Swordback Beast fell to the ground with a bang, smas.h.i.+ng the leaves and debris on the ground into the air.

Chu Nan narrowed his eyes and shook his head in dissatisfaction.

Although this Swordback Beast looked very large and seemed to be very ferocious, it was only an E-rank ferocious beast in the index of the Milky Way’s ferocious beasts. Killing it could only obtain one point. It was undoubtedly a fool’s dream to rely on killing it to rank at the top of the rankings.

However, Chu Nan still obediently opened his personal terminal and pulled out the special program for the Star Cloud Academy’s test to scan the corpse of the Swordback Beast.

A moment later, a beep sounded from his personal terminal.

This meant that the death of this Swordback Beast had already been recorded and proved that it had died in Chu Nan’s hands. The other examinees could no longer use its corpse to do other things.

Chu Nan glanced at the personal interface on the special program and discovered that his points had indeed increased to 87 points.

When he opened the real-time ranking interface of the test, Chu Nan discovered that his ranking had increased by more than a hundred places with this point, reaching the 491st place.

This ranking was naturally ranked at the top among the more than 3,000 examinees, but if he continued to maintain this ranking, he would not even have the qualifications to enter Star Cloud Academy.

Not to mention that this was far from the extremely outstanding performance Chu Nan needed. As for the difference between him and the first place, it was even greater.

Chu Nan’s gaze moved up the rankings and landed on the name “Feng Mingxi”. When he saw the number representing points behind him, he shook his head and smiled bitterly.

Today was only the third day of the test, but this guy’s points were already as high as 316, which was 94 points higher than the second place. It was really shocking.

The second was a name that Chu Nan did not know but had heard of. It was said that he was also a very famous genius martial artist of the federation.

The third place was the same.

He continued to read until he saw the 71st place. Only then did Chu Nan discover that Angie Prairie’s name had 192 points.

As one of the two examinees who were ranked alongside Feng Mingxi before the test began, Angie Prairie’s current ranking was undoubtedly a little strange.

“Is this fellow slacking off?” Chu Nan could not help but think.

With Angie Prairie’s previous att.i.tude, Chu Nan felt that his guess was very reasonable.

As for Chu Nan himself… he was not lazy, but his luck was really a little bad.

On the first day of the test, the examinees set off from the same place. Although they scattered in all directions, there were still too many examinees in the same area, so any ferocious beast that appeared would cause countless examinees to fight for it.

Chu Nan was alone and did not want to waste time in conflict with other examinees, so he always avoided them as much as he could. In the end, on the first day, he only killed a D-rank beast and more than ten E-rank beasts and only obtained a few points.

The next day, because the examinees had completely dispersed, the situation was much better.

However, Chu Nan did not even encounter a single D-rank beast for the entire day. Even if he could kill them all, because they were all E-rank beasts, even if he continuously killed more than 40, the points he obtained were only 40 points.

On the third day of the day, Chu Nan looked around for ferocious beasts early in the morning. Up until now, he had still encountered only E-rank ferocious beasts. Currently, an entire morning had pa.s.sed, but he had only obtained a pitiful mere 13 points, barely increasing his points to 87 points.

“Sigh, no wonder there’s an old saying that luck is also an important part of strength. If I encounter a few more D-rank ferocious beasts, my points won’t be so pitiful.” Chu Nan could not help but sigh.

Feng Mingxi’s strength was naturally unquestionable, but luck was definitely a large part of the reason why he was currently ranked first.

Perhaps he had even killed a C-rank beast. Otherwise, it was very difficult for Chu Nan to imagine how he could score less than 100 points higher than the second place.

One had to know that from the second place until Chu Nan’s 491st place, the difference between everyone was very small. At most, they were only a few points ahead, and there were even many who were evenly matched.

For example, Chu Nan was currently ranked 491st with 87 points, but in front of him, from 387th to 635th, he still had 87 points.

If he casually added one or two points, his ranking might soar.

This also indirectly proved how intense the compet.i.tion was this time. They could not relax at all.

Chu Nan slid his finger and looked at the long row of gray names at the back of the ranking.

Starting from the 2498th place, all the names were gray, which meant that these examinees had already left this test.

This was only the third day, but among the total of 3,286 examinees, 788 had already withdrawn. It also showed the cruelty of this test.

Moreover, just as Chu Nan sighed, another gray name appeared, proving that another examinee had chosen to give up the test.

“If too many examinees give up midway and there are not even 300 people who persist in the end, what will Star Cloud Academy do?” Chu Nan suddenly had a strange thought.

After thinking for a moment, he immediately shook his head.

The examinees who were qualified to partic.i.p.ate in the public test were all outstanding young martial artists of the federation. It was not to the extent that less than a tenth of them would be left.

If such a situation really happened, the federation would really be finished.

Chu Nan closed his personal terminal and glanced at the huge Swordback Beast before giving up on roasting it.

This guy was so big. Not only was it troublesome to deal with, the meat was definitely very rough and definitely not delicious.

He raised his head and discovered that the star of the Beast Garden Planet in the sky had already arrived above his head. Seeing that it was about to be noon, Chu Nan thought for a moment and decided to put the matter of lunch aside for the time being. It was best to hurry up and kill a few more ferocious beasts.

He looked around and suddenly lay on the ground, his ear pressed against the ground as he listened carefully.

This was also a habit he had nurtured in the past two days.

Generally speaking, when huge ferocious beasts walked, they would always cause a huge vibration. If one listened closely, it was very easy to hear some movements.

As expected, after listening for a while, he heard a vibration coming from the ground at 2 o’clock on the right.

According to the size of the vibration, it could be determined that this ferocious beast should be slightly larger than the Swordback Beast.

“Could it be a D-rank beast?”

Chu Nan’s mind shook as he jumped up from the ground and jumped onto a large tree beside him. He arrived at the top of the tree in a few steps and looked in the direction of the vibration. As expected, he saw that about a kilometer away, the crown of the forest was swaying weakly and unnaturally. At the same time, some birds were shocked.

“This is it!”

After confirming his target, Chu Nan tapped his feet and jumped up several times on the tree crown before arriving at the forest where the commotion was.

When he got closer, Chu Nan saw a huge monster that was as tall as a building through the gap in the leaves. It had four hooves on the ground and two horns on its head. He was immediately overjoyed.

D-rank beast, Giant Spiritual Bull!
