Chapter 885: Significance Of The Assessment

Ten minutes later, another wave of other race experts appeared in the starry sky.

The number of races and the number of targets remained unchanged—one hundred.

However, their strength had increased. The 1st tier Transcendent God targets from the previous round had been replaced by 2nd tier Transcendent God targets.

At the Transcendent God realm, every subsequent tier represented a tremendous leap in power.

Each advancement brought a world-shaking transformation, with defensive strength alone often doubling or even tripling.

But to Lin Moyu, such an increase was meaningless.

Back in the deep layer, killing 5th tier Transcendent God monsters had already been as easy as cutting through vegetables.

Now, after undergoing the greater world's law baptism, his talents had undergone a qualitative transformation.

His law arts could carry laws, resulting in a fundamental change to his combat power.

2nd tier Transcendent Gods could now be erased with a casual wave of his hand.

"Examinee, please use your law arts to destroy the other race targets. The more targets you destroy, the higher your evaluations. Time limit: thirty minutes."

The same announcement sounded again.

Lin Moyu chuckled, "Thirty minutes won't be necessary. Not even one minute."

The Undeath World descended once more.

But this time, it was entirely different.

Within the Undeath World, gray-white wisps of mist emerged. They were manifestations of the law of undeath.

Inside Lin Moyu's soul world, the law art star belonging to Undead Gaze was likewise enveloped in wisps of gray-white mist.

He mobilized the law of undeath and infused one percent of it into the Undead Gaze law art star.

The moment the law merged with the law art, the power of Undead Gaze surged severalfold.

The aura of death welled up in the soul attack.

Under its influence, the enemy's souls began to decay, rapidly withering away.

In an instant, several other race targets were killed.

Then, a thunderous explosion shook the starry sky.

Corpse Explosion was the most unreasonable law art in Lin Moyu's arsenal.

Its power depended entirely on the health of the corpse used.

The stronger the corpse, the greater the explosion.

Lin Moyu had once imagined that if he obtained the corpse of an unequaled powerhouse, he could use it to kill another unequaled powerhouse.

The same principle applied here.

With a 2nd tier Transcendent God corpse, he could effortlessly wipe out all the remaining 2nd tier Transcendent Gods.

A few seconds later, the starry sky fell silent once again.

"Preparing the third assessment. Please wait."

Hearing the announcement, Lin Moyu smiled, "This time, it should be 3rd tier Transcendent Gods."

After two rounds, Lin Moyu had already understood the nature of the assessment.

It was simply a test designed to continuously raise the difficulty and determine his ultimate combat limit, with his final evaluation based on how far he could go.

Soon, the third assessment began.

Aside from the targets' strength increasing to the 3rd tier Transcendent God realm, everything else remained unchanged.

3rd tier Transcendent Gods could no longer be instantly killed by Undead Gaze alone.

Lin Moyu added another law art.

Crimson light filled the battlefield.

Fuses law art: Time Curse!

With Undead Gaze and Time Curse combined, the damage inflicted on the soul was devastating.

A 3rd tier Transcendent God target was killed almost instantly.

Once the first enemy fell, the rest were no longer a threat.

Another wave of overwhelming bombardment swept across the battlefield, clearing all targets in mere seconds.

The time required barely changed, still taking only a dozen seconds or so.

The Human Emperor Network's notification sounded again, announcing preparations for the fourth assessment.

Soon, 4th tier Transcendent God targets appeared.

Apart from their increased strength, everything else remained identical.

This time, however, relying only on Undead Gaze and Time Curse was no longer enough.

Lin Moyu had to use additional law arts.

Within his soul world, wisps of gray-white mist began spreading across numerous law art stars.

His law arts now carried the law, causing their might to increase dramatically.

After cracks appeared on the curse of the greater world rune within his soul and its suppression weakened, summon-type law arts benefited the most.

The strength of his skeletons had undergone a massive improvement.

Even without the talent’s amplification, they now possessed combat power equivalent to the weakest 1st tier Transcendent Gods.

With his talent’s amplification and the Lich Generals' enhancements, they could even defeat 2nd tier Transcendent Gods.

After being infused with the law of undeath, the skeletons' combat ability rose once again, reaching 3rd tier Transcendent God realm combat power.

With 3rd tier Transcendent God combat power, killing a 4th tier Transcendent God would only require some time.

This time, Lin Moyu spent one minute eliminating the first other race target.

Then another round of indiscriminate bombardment began.

Corpse Explosion was simply that unreasonable.

As long as he was provided with a corpse, even the heavens themselves could be overturned.

"I'm beginning to approach my limit."

Lin Moyu gazed into the empty void, waiting for the fifth round of assessment.

He had already estimated his current combat limit. It should be around the 6th tier Transcendent God realm.

Beyond that, while opponents would still be unable to kill him, he would also find it extremely difficult to kill them.

Lin Moyu could only sigh helplessly.

His offensive and defensive capabilities were simply too unbalanced.

The root of the problem lay in the curse of the greater world rune, which severely restricted the power of his law arts.

If the curse were completely removed, Lin Moyu was confident he would be truly invincible within the Transcendent God realm.

Although he already stood at the pinnacle of the realm, he still couldn't claim absolute invincibility.

Of course, if he possessed a corpse of the appropriate realm, everything changed. With Corpse Explosion at his disposal, he could massacre anything in his path.

The fifth round of assessment began.

Facing 5th tier Transcendent God targets, Lin Moyu summoned the Skeletal Divine Generals.

After merging with the law of undeath, they possessed combat power comparable to 4th tier Transcendent Gods.

After several minutes of relentless attacks, they finally brought down a 5th tier Transcendent God, and then Corpse Explosion quickly swept the battlefield clean.

The sixth round was where things became truly difficult.

This time, his opponents were 6th tier Transcendent Gods.

Death Dragon Knights, Skeletal Divine Geneals, Bone Fangs, Undead Gaze, Time Curse—Lin Moyu unleashed every law art at his disposal.

He even infused the two percent law of undeath into the target, using its death aspect to erode the target.

Yet the defense of a 6th tier Transcendent God was simply overwhelming.

Despite his relentless barrage, the damage he dealt was negligible.

The assessment allowed only thirty minutes.

It wasn't until the twenty-eighth minute that Lin Moyu finally managed to kill a single other race target.

Once he obtained a corpse, the battle became simple again.

A series of devastating explosions erupted across the battlefield.

Moments before the time expired, he finally eliminated the remaining enemies 𝘧𝓇ℯℴ𝓂

Lin Moyu knew he had reached his limit.

Passing the seventh round was impossible.

Still, he was certain his performance was already exceptional.

Most people would likely hit the wall by the third round.

Only those who had personally experienced the assessment could understand how terrifying it was to challenge opponents six tiers above their own.

After a brief pause, the seventh round began.

This time, 7th tier Transcendent God targets appeared. Lin Moyu couldn't harm them at all.

Every law art that struck them felt like nothing more than a light scratch, utterly incapable of breaking through their defenses.

He activated Enhance Troops, increasing his damage output by an additional five hundred percent.

It made no difference.

A single tier separated them, yet that gap was as vast as heaven and earth.

Only then did Lin Moyu grasp another purpose behind this trial.

It wasn't merely a test of strength.

It was meant to show every examinee exactly where their limits lay.

Only by understanding their limits would they know which battles they could fight, and which would only lead to death.

As long as they lived, there was always hope.

Once they died, everything was over.

Lin Moyu had to admit that this method of teaching was effective.

By the time thirty minutes passed, every other race target was gone.

A voice echoed through the void once more, "The first stage of the assessment has ended. The second stage will begin in ten minutes. Examinee, prepare yourself."

The second stage.

"The first stage tested offensive power. The second should test either defensive capability or real combat ability."

Lin Moyu recalled the examinees who had emerged before him. Every one of them bore the marks of fierce battle.

That alone proved the upcoming stage would involve real combat.

Ten minutes passed in the blink of an eye.

A towering figure materialized before him.

It was no longer a target dummy.

It was a real other race expert.

Its upper body resembled that of a human, gripping a five-meter-long spear. Below the waist, it possessed the body of a horse, its four legs wreathed in blazing flames.

A cold voice rang through the battlefield once more, "The first round of the second stage: kill the enemy before you."
