Chapter 123: Combat Technique School

When they heard Liu Yan’s motive, Murong Xue, Chu Long, and Luo Qingcheng were all surprised.

They were quite familiar with Liu Yan. They didn’t know Liu Yan’s real motive. But based on their understanding of Liu Yan, he didn’t seem like the kind of person who would say something like that.

The staffs were also somewhat surprised. What Liu Yan said was undoubtedly what they wanted to hear the most.

The federation also needed this kind of tower climber the most. Not only would their willpower be strong, but they would also go further, ascend higher, and become stronger.

In addition, this kind of tower climber would contribute the most to the federation in the future.

It was just that there were too few tower climbers with such awareness.

The staff looked at the equipment, The equipment did not have any special reaction. It meant that Liu Yan was telling the truth.

“Young man, you have a good spirit. I have high hopes for you.”

The staff praised him and then started recording.

Liu Yan glanced at it. His first test result was a full score of 100.

Murong Xue was 85 and Luo Qingcheng was 70. Chu Long was the lowest, only 60, so she barely passed the test.

“Thank you.”

As Liu Yan spoke, he stood up and left.

However, he was secretly laughing in his heart. He did not expect that the skill that he extracted from Luo Qingcheng would be so useful.

When he returned to the side of the few girls, they all cast a strange look at Liu Yan.

“I didn’t expect you to have such a noble resolution, Liu Yan.” Murong Xue said with some surprise.

“Of course.” Liu Yan curled his lips and spoke.

Chu Long also nodded and said, “From now on, I will work together with Brother Liu Yan to become stronger. We will serve the federation and protect the human race!”

Luo Qingcheng did not say anything and looked at Liu Yan suspiciously. She felt that something was a little strange.

However, she had signed a soul contract with Liu Yan, so there was naturally no need to worry that Liu Yan would harm her even though he was acting a bit weird.

Following that, Liu Yan and the other three had passed the first test. They waited on the spot. At the same time, they also watched the other tower climbers’ first test.

Many awakened ones saw Liu Yan say this and immediately obtained full marks. They also imitated Liu Yan’s words.

However, the lie detector sounded an alarm one after another. Under the unkind gazes of the officials, those awakened ones were forced to reveal their true motives.

There were all kinds of strange purposes.

“To become stronger, to buy a house and a car!”

“My parents forced me to come here. If I don’t come, they’ll beat me up!”

“I heard that being strong makes it easier to pick up girls, so I came...”

“To obtain a higher status.”

“To not inherit the family property.”

“...”

There were all sorts of strange reasons and all sorts of scores.

However, most of them were still positive goals. Even if their reasons were a little strange and the scores were not high, they would still be qualified.

After all, people were not saints. Most people climbed the Tower to become stronger for their selfish desires, and this was still reasonable.

A small number of people with bad intentions would be directly expelled from Lighthouse Academy’s upper house. Their scores were lower than 60.

The remaining people were also discussing amongst themselves. The officials did not reveal the difference between the scores. They only said that as long as one could pass the first round, it would be fine.

However, many of the tower climbers were guessing that the high scores were very likely related to the number of resources they could obtain later on. The degree of importance that they could receive from the academy would also be different.

For someone like Liu Yan, who had a full score, he would definitely receive the academy’s resources and focus on nurturing him as long as there were no problems with his talent and other aspects.

Liu Yan and the other three listened to the discussions around them, but they didn’t really care.

Murong Xue said with disdain, “I have such a strong talent and strength, I don’t believe that the academy won’t give me the resource.”

Luo Qingcheng and Chu Long didn’t care about these things in the first place.

As for Liu Yan, he already had a full score. He did not have to worry at all. Even if his score was low, Liu Yan didn’t care.

Liu Yan was looking forward to the academy’s resource allocation, but he didn’t feel that it was too important.

After all, Liu Yan already had an SSS-grade talent, Divine Extraction. Even without the resource allocation, Liu Yan could rely on his talent to continuously raise his strength.

Becoming an expert was only a matter of time for him.

Very soon, the first round of the test was completed.

Out of thousands of tower climbers, only 100 to 200 had been eliminated. The ratio was still extremely small.

Those who had managed to reach this stage did not have ill intentions. They were not too unscrupulous.

At this moment, Lei Jianbo came to the front again and announced,

“Next, the second test: Battle record display! Each tower climber will go to the academy’s official personnel in turn. The smart wristband and equipment will be connected and display the summary of your battle record for the first three levels. The academy will conduct a preliminary screening of your battle record. Those who have come up with luck and tricks will be screened out. We’re just protecting you by eliminating you. You will not be able to survive at the higher levels with just luck and tricks. You’re just courting death without strength! In addition, you will also be divided into schools according to your battle achievements. You can also make your own choices. The specific information of the four schools has already been transmitted to your smart wristband. You can check it yourself!”

“Oh right.” Lei Jianbo’s expression changed, he said again, “The vice presidents of our four schools will arrive in a moment. They are all top experts and important talents in our academy. If you perform well and gain their recognition, your future will be limitless!”

After the new director Lei Jianbo announced this, the new students also started to look around curiously.

Many people had heard of the four great schools of the Lighthouse Academy. It was said that the four great schools each had their duties, and their own merits.

However, without exception, the four great schools were extremely important to the Lighthouse Academy and the entire federation. Their contributions were huge.

Under the influence of the four great schools in various aspects, the awakened ones of the federation were able to form a perfect system, allowing mankind to gradually become stronger.

At this moment, Liu Yan was also extremely curious. He hurriedly used his smart wristband to check the information about the four great schools.

The four great schools were: the Combat Techniques School, the Command School, the Weapons School, and the Logistics School.

Liu Yan looked through them one by one.

The first was the most crucial Combat Technique School. Without the Combat Technique School, the awakened ones would not be able to develop their combat skill. The other schools were all empty talk. They focused on developing the combat strength of the awakened ones.

The Combat Technique School focused on increasing the effects of skills and inventing new skills. It allowed the awakened to quickly and steadily increase their strength. Moreover, under the same level of strength, they could display even more terrifying combat strength!

When Liu Yan saw the introduction of the Combat Technique School, his eyes immediately lit up.

The other schools did not have much of an attraction for Liu Yan. However, the Combat Technique School had many new skills. If he were to go in and learned some new skills, wouldn’t he be able to immediately increase his strength by a huge margin?

After all, Liu Yan did not need to spend a large amount of time learning new skills like the others. The others still needed to slowly familiarize themselves with the new skills and even need to spend a large amount of time in actual combat to practice them.

Liu Yan was much simpler. He could directly use Divine Extraction. After learning it for a second, he could still familiarize himself with it and easily increase his strength!
