3897 The spirit beast trial

As everyone was talking, everyone was already in position. Hu Yunfeng immediately announced,""The fifth round of this year's rookie evaluation is the trial of spirit beasts. I believe that all the rookies should be familiar with this mission. It is to capture spirit beasts as your pets."

In the sky rank island's cultivation world, spiritual pets had always been very common. Any master with a bit of strength would have a spiritual pet with them. Miss Shangguan's little Curly Bear was a living example.

All the rookies present had long been envious of this. However, firstly, they were weak and secondly, they did not have extra spiritual jades to feed their spiritual pets. They could not even satisfy the most basic condition of taming a spiritual pet, so they could only think about it for the time being.

A spirit pet talisman was the most common and reliable method of taming a spirit pet on the Sky Class Island. However, the price was not low. Even the lowest grade of a spirit pet talisman would cost at least a hundred spirit jade pieces. Other than the second generation cultivators of the soaring Pavilion, the other newbies could not afford it.

After a pause, Hu Yunfeng continued,"this time, the spirit beast assessment will last for a month. The venue will still be at the outer area of the back mountain. Before you set off, each of you will be given a low-level spirit pet talisman. One month later, today, you will all be evaluated and scored. As for the specific evaluation method and some things to take note of, Meng jueguang will explain it to you."

Seeing Meng Jue Guang walk up the stage in high spirits to Hu Yun Feng's side, all of the new disciples were baffled. This guy was merely the GreenCloud Pavilion's new disciple supervisor, and there were all the new disciples of the three great pavilions present. What kind of situation was this for him to go up and introduce them?

Even if Hu Yunfeng didn't personally introduce him, there was still the second house master, Feng Song. Even Kang Zhaoming, the new Butler, would be more reasonable than Meng jueguang, right?

However, Lin Yi and the others were well aware of this. Meng jueguang's promotion to the third Pavilion master was already a foregone conclusion. Hu Yunfeng's actions were clearly to do Meng jueguang a favor so that he could show his face and establish his prestige in the future.

"I was wondering why this guy was dressed so well today, like a duck going out to sell. It turns out that he was planning this!" Qiao hongcai's mouth twitched at Lin Yi and the others, a strange look on his face.

"I think it's because we've pushed Meng jueguang too hard these past two days, so they're taking this opportunity to save some face for him. Otherwise, even if he takes the position of the third Pavilion master, he'll still be disgraced." Lin Yi nodded.

"Sigh, I feel uncomfortable when I think about how he was the one who pushed senior brother Lu away. If he really holds the position of the third Pavilion master, I'm afraid he'll be even more aggressive in the future." The miserable senior brother sighed.

Lin Yi patted his shoulder and consoled him with a smile,"Senior brother ku, you don't have to be so pessimistic. The tables have turned, and when the time comes, we don't know who will be the lucky one. Just wait and see."

After clearing his throat on stage, Meng jueguang said with a solemn expression,"The points for this round's spirit beast assessment are divided into two aspects. One is the spirit beast's rank points, and the other is the spirit beast's strength points. The sum of these two aspects will be the final points for this round."

Seeing Meng jueguang's pretentious conduct, the audience couldn't help but feel a wave of disgust, but for the sake of their own interests, they could only endure the disgust and continue to listen.

The points for spirit beast level were based on the level of the spirit pet captured by each newcomer. Each level corresponded to a different level of points. Five points for non-rank, ten points for yellow rank, fifteen points for profound rank, twenty points for earth rank, and twenty-five points for heaven rank.

As for those above the heaven rank, it was impossible. The low rank spiritual pet talismans that the welcoming new pavilion gave out to the newcomers could only tame a spirit beast of the great circle of the heaven rank at most. For those at the Foundation Stage, they would need a middle rank spiritual pet talisman. The low rank ones couldn't guarantee the effect.

The so-called spirit beast's strength points were for the new disciples 'subdued spirit pets to compete with each other. However, the rules were completely different from the new disciple challenge. It was a more simple and clear one-round Elimination System.

The newbies from the three pavilions would draw lots to determine their opponents. Each round they won would give them ten points of spiritual beast Strength, and the losers would be eliminated.

The highest points for a spirit beast's grade were twenty-five points, and the highest points for a spirit beast's strength were forty points. Together, they were the highest points in theory in the spirit beast assessment, sixty-five points.

Compared to the previous four segments, this segment's points weren't considered high. However, for all the rookies, this segment was undoubtedly the most practical and most moving segment. Even if the points weren't taken into consideration, they could at least earn a spiritual pet for free, so why not?

After explaining the points system, Meng jueguang added,""All the new disciples, as this assessment will be held in the outer area of the back mountain, you must follow the rules of the back mountain Hall. You must not do anything stupid like touching the restrictions. Also, the back mountain strictly prohibits anyone from entering or leaving at will, and you are no exception. Therefore, although the spirit beast assessment will last for a month, if you leave halfway, it means that you have given up the remaining opportunities and will not be able to enter the back mountain again."

After hearing this, the newbies started discussing. Even Lin Yi couldn't help but squint his eyes. They were given a month's time, but they weren't allowed to come and go as they pleased-this arrangement was interesting!

For a whole month, they only had one low-level spiritual pet talisman. Once the chance was used up, it would be gone. Therefore, the newcomers would naturally choose to wait and see. After all, good steel should be used on the blade. If they rashly wasted it on an inferior spiritual beast, wouldn't it be a waste?

However, after hearing Meng jueguang's words, the rookies had no choice but to readjust their strategy.

The back mountain was filled with ferocious beasts. Even if it was only the periphery, it was still a place filled with danger. This was something that the rookies had already experienced during the rookie trials.

In this kind of place, almost no one could have a good rest. If they stayed for a long time, they would be exhausted. At that time, let alone catching spiritual pets, they might even lose their lives here!

As such, the rookies had to carefully weigh the risks and benefits.

Whether to grab a random spiritual pet and leave quickly or risk their lives to walk two more rounds was a dilemma that every newcomer had to face. If they were lucky, they might be blessed by the heavens, but if they were unlucky, they might be in danger of losing their lives.

"Alright, the rules and precautions have been explained clearly. If all the newbies have no questions, please come and collect your spiritual pet talismans. We're ready to set off." Hu Yunfeng said.

A moment later, a dozen aerial spirit beasts rose into the air from the rear Mountain Hall Square. Just like the previous rookie trial, the three pavilions 'rookies were placed in three opposite directions outside the rear mountain. (To be continued.)
