Chapter 3 The exam begins

  The swollen giant clasped its hands together and threw a thick creature with a diameter of more than one meter away. Sand and dust flew everywhere, and the Blood Machinery Clan on the side could only cheer from a distance behind.

  Even though they had repaired more than twenty shotguns that would not explode after one shot in more than two months, they were unable to intervene in this battle. The damage that a small shotgun could cause to this behemoth was really limited, and such wounds would only make it more angry.

  This was already the second hour of the battle between the swollen colossus and the troll worm. Xu Yi was thankful for his good habit of practicing the Gray Crow tactics, and was also thankful that the avatar he drew out was more of a strength type.

  Otherwise, they would not be able to block the troll worm head-on, and the cheerleaders behind them would be in trouble. Dozens of people could only take five or six bites of this troll worm that could open its mouth to three meters.

  The colossus's pale hand held a giant one-handed sword, which was made by the Blood Machinery Clan using waste metal.

  Dark energy gathered on it. He couldn't count how many times he had condensed the power of the plague that came with the swollen colossus, and his faith value consumption had exceeded a thousand.

  Seeing this familiar energy gathering again, the troll worm raised its head humanely, its multi-valved mouthparts covered with sharp teeth opened and closed, its back arched high, and the multiple festering wounds that penetrated into the flesh made it very afraid of this move, and the long period of sunlight exposure had almost exhausted its physical strength.

  The constant wriggling of its huge body made Xu Yi more cautious. Suddenly, the giant worm turned around, as if it wanted to retreat and burrow into the ground to escape.

  As the bodies squirmed, a wound that had been torn open many times by Xu Yi emerged from the piled up bodies.

  Not missing this great opportunity, Xu Yi was quick-witted and swift-handed. He inserted the one-handed sword carrying the corrosive energy of the plague deeply into the wound, and then pulled it upward fiercely. This sword almost cut off most of the body of the troll worm. The troll worm let out a series of annoying roars, and twitched wildly on the ground for a few minutes before it died.

  The Blood Machine Clan in the rear shouted wildly. After witnessing the "great power of the gods", many of them became more confident. The worm that had troubled them for nearly three weeks had finally been punished by the gods, and they no longer had to worry about running out of food.

  This was also the first time they witnessed the fighting power of the swollen colossus.

  In more than two months, the swollen colossus only took action twice. The first time, it helped Jay intimidate three surrounding flesh and blood puppet settlements. After that intimidation, the blood machine clan gradually grew to more than two hundred people.

  Later, under Xu Yi's "oracle", Jay organized a hunting team. On the one hand, he hunted some gray rabbits and striped hyenas to replenish food reserves, and on the other hand, he let all members of the Blood Machine Clan take turns to participate in hunting and improve their combat capabilities in batches.

  The hunting area is within Xu Yi's divine domain which is five kilometers long and wide. Xu Yi temporarily integrated the core of the divine domain into the only manual machine tool in the weapons workshop. While defining the boundaries of the divine domain, he also improved the performance of this only processing equipment, making it barely a rare quality device.

  Otherwise, with the Blood Machinery Clan's level 1 craftsmanship, most of the repaired shotguns would be disposable.

  This third-level creature, the troll worm, was attracted during the most recent hunt. It then lurked at the factory gate for two or three weeks before being dealt with by Xu Yi who came online.

  In order to save faith points, Xu Yi manipulated the swollen colossus to return to the fixed position in the factory first. Jay organized people to move the huge troll worm corpse back to the factory and held a sacrifice.

  [Your clan, the Blood Machine Clan, held a sacrifice for you]

  [The sacrifice is a young troll worm, the swollen colossus absorbed part of its soul, Faith value +500]

  Xu Yi did not comment on this sacrifice, because it seemed that the monster was killed by him.

  This was not the first time the sacrifice was held, and the Blood Machinery Clan had done a pretty good job of it.

  Since Jay performed the first sacrifice, Xu Yi expressed satisfaction with Jay after discovering that the swollen statue also had the function of accepting sacrifices.

  Jay also cooperated well and held a sacrifice after each hunt, but the sacrifices were always black rats, hyenas, etc., and the faith value was always +2, +5.

  As the number of such incidents increased, and there was only prey each time, Xu Yi began to doubt whether his priesthood had already shifted towards hunting.

  But at this starting stage, even +2 and +5 are worth a lot. Otherwise, when faced with a sudden crisis, where would the 1,000 faith points come from? Isn't it accumulated in this way? Xu Yi deeply agrees.

  After the sacrifice, the Blood Machine Clan praised the Wasteland God for his kindness while roasting the rabbit and dog meat they had stored. The roasting method was given to Jay by Xu Yi, so that the Blood Machine Clan would not have to grind the food into powder and then can it.

  After more than two months of operation, the sect's interface has been completely renewed.

  [Sect interface]

  [Sect] None

  [Faith Type] Primitive Worship

  [Divine Arts] None

  [Saints/Fanatics] 0/0

  [Prayers/Fanatics] 2/0

  [Devouts] 48

  [True Believers] 112 [

  Shallow Believers] 88

  [General Believers] 0

  [Faith Value] 32738

  What made Xu Yi feel a little helpless was that he had never obtained divine arts. The inability to grant divine arts deprived him of a way to deepen his faith. Otherwise, there would not be more than eighty shallow believers until now.

  There is also one less means of burst in large-scale battles between divine realms, and the faith value is currently only used when activating the Swelling Colossus. When it accumulates to 38,800, you can directly do a ten-hit combo.

  The lottery system gradually revealed its essence derived from mobile games, with a guaranteed ten-draw draw, 388 krypton gold, dust returns from the lottery, fragment exchange, and mall upgrades. Xu Yi hasn't had the time to study the specific functions in detail. After all, he hasn't even collected ten draws yet.

  And as he fought the troll worm, an email lit up at the very edge of his vision.

  That was the early admission notice sent by the head teacher for the monthly exam.

  The last monthly exam for the second year of high school will begin in one hour. Please arrive twenty minutes in advance and be prepared.

  After climbing out of the Divine Realm landing cabin and washing up, Xu Yi stretched his body and opened the portal to the school.

  The portal automatically adjusted the band leading to the school, and the white light gathered to form a flashing elliptical light gate.

  He took a deep breath. After more than two months of preparation, the time had finally come. Xu Yi took a step forward and in the blink of an eye, he was already in the classroom of Class 2 (1) of Wuhu No. 2 Middle School.

  The classroom was bright and spacious, about the size of the lecture hall that Xu Yi had used to take classes at university in his previous life. Rows of gray matte-textured exam-specific login pods had corresponding names labeled on the back. The students who arrived first gathered in groups of three or four in various parts of the classroom to chat.

  In the corner of the classroom, a broad figure stood against the wall, looking somewhat lonely compared to the noise around him. Xu Yi looked around and walked towards this corner.

  This person's name is Zheng Guihao. He originally had three points of divinity and was also Xu Yi's childhood friend. They lived in the same residential area and were in the same class in elementary, junior high, and high school. It can be said that they grew up together.

  When he entered primary school, his parents were away for a long time, and Xu Yi lived in a single-family residential complex, which was also deserted. The only people of his age were Zheng Guihao and another girl, and the three of them were together for a long time.

  Unlike other top students in the class, Zheng Guihao is alone and has a bad relationship with his classmates.

  Fortunately, I don't spend much time in school, so it's not that difficult.

  When he saw Xu Yi coming, Zheng Guihao's eyes lit up obviously.

  He whistled and strode forward. The students who were gathered in twos and threes on the road all stepped aside and moved away from him, with some of them showing obvious disgust in their eyes.

  "Hey, what a rare visitor. Brother Yi, what's going on? Has your divinity finally awakened?"

  Prior to this, Xu Yi had missed nine monthly exams. Without opening up the divine realm, he had nothing to do.

  "That's right. We can't let our brother Hao stay alone in the corner."

  Xu Yi didn't care, knowing that was Zheng Guihao's personality, and teased him back.

  At first, one of them had three points of initial divinity, and the other had four points of initial divinity. Both of them monopolized the best resources, but were unable to awaken their divinity.

  During my second year of high school, I didn't receive many sarcastic remarks from classmates. After all, it was a consensus that it was difficult for divinity to awaken.

  Xu Yi, who still hadn't awakened his divinity until the second semester of his sophomore year, was mocked every time during his weekly class. He awakened during the winter break and directly fought back for Zheng Guihao, who ranked first in the monthly exam. For this, he got angry at the whole class.

  Those who can take part in the monthly exam have all successfully awakened their divinity. Most of them have an initial divinity of 1 point. They are also the first ones to ridicule the two because of the uneven distribution of mental potion resources.

  Even in the simulated God's Domain battle, he was no match for this barbarian with three points of divine awakening, whose arms were all flying units. These people resorted to cold violence against him, which is what we saw before, with everyone avoiding him.

  "Yes, yes. If you don't wake up, I will be alone in the future. Du Yuan will definitely be pursued by someone else in No. 1 Middle School, and you, Young Master Xu, can only go home and be a parasite." Zheng Guihao spoke without lowering his voice at all, as if he was speaking to those indifferent classmates.

  "Tsk, what nonsense are you talking about? You can't even compare to how you, Young Master Zheng, chose the harpy as your first race without thinking. Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, your eyes must be tired from looking at it every day. Is your nutrition enough?"

  The two men walked closer, laughed, and put their arms around each other's shoulders.

  Zheng Guihao lowered his voice and said, "Is your final exam okay this time? What race did you choose initially? Tell me what resources you need. After a semester, I can still provide resource cards like fertile grassland and tropical rainforest. I use the giant forest myself, so there is no conflict. I can lend you these first. Well, if I can borrow soldiers, I will lend you 300 harpies directly to help you get the rewards for this monthly exam first."

  Xu Yi smiled bitterly. This fat guy obviously hadn't communicated with anyone for a long time. He looked down on his classmates. His classmates were also jealous of him and talked a lot. He just replied halfway: "These resources are useless to me. I can try the fertile grassland..."

  Before he could finish his words, the head teacher's voice rang out: "There are still five minutes left for this monthly exam. Please enter your respective exam landing capsules."

  Ignoring the gazes, Zheng Guihao took out a stack of cards and handed them to Xu Yi: "These are for you first. You can improve as much as you can before the exam. Remember to return the useless ones to me after the exam."

  Before he finished speaking, he hurried to his corresponding examination cabin, without giving Xu Yi a chance to refuse.

  Shaking his head, Xu Yi found the examination cabin corresponding to his name and sat in. Before he entered completely, he felt a gaze from his teacher.

  His homeroom teacher Xu Haiping took good care of him. His mental power was delayed in awakening in the second half of the semester, and the teacher even applied for mental power potions for him many times despite the pressure. Without the teacher, he would not have been able to awaken before this monthly exam.

  Making an affirmative gesture to the teacher with his thumb and index finger, Xu Yi completely disappeared into the examination cabin.
