Chapter 932 - Advantage of Tier 1 Players
When the team heard that they could enter the Titan Library if they passed the test, elation colored their expressions . The team's magical classes were particularly eager, their eyes alight as they hungered to enter the library as soon as possible .
"Everyone, rest up . Make sure you are in peak condition before you challenge the test," Shi Feng instructed his team .
Each person only had one chance to pass the test . If they failed, they would not gain access to the library; they would only find another chance to take the test when they came through the trial again . However, it would be far more difficult to reach the Titan Library next time .
While Shi Feng was confident in leading everyone to Titan City, the same could not be said for the Titan Library .
In the past, many independent players had chosen to take the Library's test whenever they got their hands on a pass . However, since reaching the Titan Library was more difficult than the direct path to Titan City, very few players had passed the test . Even so, everyone wanted to try .
This was all because players could learn extremely rare Skills in the Titan Library .
These rare Skills could improve a player's combat power significantly . For example, Shi Feng's Flame Burst was one such rare Skill . Moreover, these Skills generally did not require Proficiency to level, only EXP . Hence, a player could dump a large sum of EXP into leveling these Skills during a crucial moment with the hope of turning the situation around .
"Your test is simple . Because you are all Tier 1 classes, you just need to kill a Chieftain of the same level within a certain time . If you fail to defeat your opponent within the given time, you fail the test . " After the Titan NPC finished explaining, the spear in his hand trembled .
Suddenly, a golden magic array with a 5-yard-radius appeared a short distance away .
"That is your arena . When you are ready to take the test, simply step into the array," the Titan NPC said as he pointed at the golden magic array . The NPC then fell silent as he resumed guarding the closed gates .
As the team members listened to the test's rules, they frowned .
Ordinary experts could not solo a Chieftain of the same level, not to mention doing so within a limited time . Since the system had placed a time-limit on the test, it was obvious that players would not have long .
"Just enter the array when you're ready," Shi Feng said . He could not help but laugh and shake his head when he saw everyone's depressed expressions .
In reality, Tier 1 players had a benefit when they came here . When Tier 2 players took the test, they had to solo a High Lord of the same level; that monster was two ranks higher . Compared to a High Lord, a Chieftain seemed cute .
After saying so, Shi Feng entered the magic array . He then transformed into a streak of golden light and disappeared .
After watching Shi Feng enter the test, the rest of the team stepped into the magic array as well . Even if they were not confident of succeeding, they had to try .
…
After players entered the golden magic array, they were transported to a peculiar space .
When Shi Feng opened his eyes, he discovered that he had teleported to a wide, open prairie with no end in sight . Meanwhile, 200 yards away from him lay a flaming rhinoceros that was over five meters tall .
[Crimson Rhinoceros] (Elemental Being, Chieftain)
Level 43
HP 400,000/400,000
The Library's test monster had far less HP than an ordinary Chieftain . The point of this test was to see if players could face these monsters head-on .
As Shi Feng prepared to approach the rhinoceros, he heard the sound of a system notification .
System: You have 10 minutes to complete the battle . If you cannot finish the battle within the allotted time, you will be automatically transferred out of this instance .
"The system's giving players ten minutes? It sure is favoring Tier 1 players . " Shi Feng could not help but sigh .
When Tier 2 players challenged the test, they only had 20 minutes . However, their monster was a High Lord .
Wasting no time, Shi Feng walked towards the Crimson Rhinoceros .
When Shi Feng was only 70 yards away from the Crimson Rhinoceros, the Chieftain discovered his presence . Immediately, it snorted scorching flames from its nostrils and stomped the ground angrily . It then charged at Shi Feng . When it moved, it thundered like a speeding truck .
Seeing this, Shi Feng activated Flame Burst . With light steps, he easily evaded the Crimson Rhinoceros's charge and slashed the Chieftain's back .
Peng!
The attack sent the rhinoceros flying over a dozen yards . When it slammed into the ground, it released a pained cry . A damage of -28,167 points appeared above its head .
Shi Feng then activated Silent Steps and appeared behind the Crimson Rhinoceros . He brandished his swords at the Chieftain, every slash leaving a deep cut .
Suddenly, Shi Feng's attack triggered Killing Ray's Lightning effect . Combined with Flame Burst's effect, the attack dealt -67,846 damage .
Before Shi Feng had used all of Flame Burst's attack counts, the Crimson Rhinoceros burst into flames, disappearing from the prairie and leaving behind a black iron token . The token was the required proof he needed to enter the Titan Library .
System: Congratulations! You have killed the Crimson Rhinoceros . Time remaining: 9 minutes 52 seconds
System: You will return in five seconds . Please prepare .
After Shi Feng picked up the token, he quietly waited for his teleportation away from this map .
To him, the library's test was not a challenge in the least . He had long since surpassed Chieftains of the same level in terms of Strength . Even without any special techniques, he could easily kill an ordinary Chieftain of the same level, not to mention one with weakened HP .
---
In front of the Titan Library, many members were still preparing themselves mentally . When a figure suddenly appeared in the golden array, they turned to look .
"What? Someone has finished already? It's only been a few seconds . "
"Did the monster kill them?"
Those who hadn't taken the test yet grew even more nervous .
However, when they Shi Feng emerge, their jaws dropped .
"Isn't he too fast?!" None of them doubted that Shi Feng had passed the test . If he couldn't do it, no one could . However, he had cleared the test astonishingly fast .
Not even twenty seconds had passed since he had entered the array .
That was a Chieftain they were talking about! A Party Dungeon's Boss! This wasn't some ordinary monster they usually farmed!
"Why haven't you guys taken the test yet?" Shi Feng glanced over the group before the gates . There were over two dozen players who had yet to take the exam, and they were all Youlan's subordinates . He then advised them, "Relax . The test isn't as difficult as you imagine . Although the monster is indeed a Chieftain, its HP has been reduced . "
Youlan's subordinates were speechless .
Even with reduced HP, a Chieftain was still a Chieftain, yet Shi Feng talked as if it was some random mob that was too easy to slaughter .
Shortly after Shi Feng had returned, Fire Dance stepped out of the magic array as well . Following which, one player after another emerged .
Why are there so many people ahead of me? When Bloodsucker returned, he saw a large group already standing before the iron gates . Even Violet Cloud was among them . He was confused .
He could accept monster-like damage dealers such as Shi Feng, Fire Dance, and White Night completing the test faster than him . But Violet Cloud was a Cleric . She was a mere healer .
