Rotational examination system.

When Qiyuan Star faced resource depletion, it would disrupt the established talent recruitment plans.

After one round of exams was sealed off, it immediately entered the next round of simulation battles.

Then, combining the situations from two rounds of examinations, the system would filter out the most outstanding talents from four grades and conduct a large-scale mixed examination for the fourth year.

In the end, it would select a batch of elites among the elites to participate in the Alien Battlefield the following year.

Hua Guyun, who proposed the “warrior gene superiority rate,” was a super elite forcibly sifted out by the rotational examination system, and his team had won the simulation battles for three consecutive years.

With the rotational examination system that depleted resources completely, Qiyuan Star had weathered six resource crises.

Because the death rate of warriors was too high.

Under normal circumstances, most warriors would only participate in the Alien Battlefield once in their lifetimes.

Because opening the simulation battles came at a cost, the elites selected by the rotational examination system disrupted the talent promotion plans, so they needed to battle in the Alien Battlefield for four consecutive years. The psychological demands on the warriors who survived were extremely high, and it was brutal.

Similarly, those warriors who managed to survive all four rounds and retire afterward would receive extremely high compensation. They would directly enter the management core of Qiyuan Star and possess supreme power…

…

As soon as he heard about the rotational examination system, Gao Ming’s face changed several shades.

“Yes! The last time we had the rotational examination system was 20 years ago, wasn’t it?” Zhu Shijie remarked with emotion, “Last time a large group went up, I didn’t expect us to catch up with it.”

“My old man has high hopes for me, whether I can move up or not depends on whether I can survive the rotational examination system,” Wen Fei said.

“Let’s form an alliance. With Brother Qi’s spiritual power, we shouldn’t have problems in the next round of simulation battles. What I’m afraid of is the collective exam for elites from four grades. Being in the same exam room as those monsters from the higher grades, I have no idea at all,” Wang Feng sighed, “The old man sees this as an opportunity, but to be honest, I really don’t want to climb up to the Alien Battlefield this way. There was a chance to survive the last Alien Battlefield but four years, completely dead.”

“Enjoying the conveniences of the family comes with a price. To be honest, our lives are pretty tough,” Wen Fei said self-mockingly.

Tough life?

Gao Ming looked at the exquisite dishes on the table, glanced at him sideways without saying a word, but his fists clenched tightly under the table.

“A first-year freshman, thinking of battling in the Alien Battlefield for four consecutive years?” Yin Erchuan scoffed, “Dream on. If you can be chosen as a reserve and go up in the last year, your ancestors must have burned some serious incense for you.”

…

The dishes were served one by one with fish and meat. The colors, aroma, and taste were no less impressive than those of a previous life.

While dishes were being served, Zhu Shijie and the others debated the pros and cons of the rotational examination system in turns. Duge listened quietly without making any comments. He had read the “History of Qiyuan Star Civilization” and naturally knew how cruel the so-called rotational examination system could be—it was an emergency system activated during severe resource shortages.

Elites saw the rotational examination system as a pathway to ascend, but for the general populace, it was truly a matter of life and death.

When resources were scarce, their rations were the first to be squeezed…

Every time the rotational examination system was initiated, the following year, due to small or large disturbances, a large number of people would die.

…

Duge felt that he too was quite unfortunate.

Having won first place in the simulation battle, he could stop eating garbage food and comfortably enjoy a year with his rewards.

Making connections with these wealthy heirs, and then participating in a second simulation exam, aiming for a top ten finish to coast along, until he graduated and became a warrior reserve, he would never have to worry about food and clothing for his entire life.

But now, with the sudden introduction of the rotational examination system, the future he had planned out become bewilderingly complicated.

This damn world!

Duge cursed silently, grabbed his wine glass, and took a big gulp, deciding to stick with his original plan.

Flip the table a few more times, brand himself as an unstable element, and even if he was ultimately chosen as a warrior, he would probably have to wait until everyone ahead of him died before going up, just as Yin Erchuan said, at most one trip to the Alien Battlefield.

If he had two key words on the Alien Battlefield, his odds of survival should be pretty good…

They clinked glasses and discussed some details about the next simulation field; Zhu Shijie and others left Duge their contact information before leaving one after another.

They had more important things to do, at least to report back home about Duge’s spiritual power 80 and the news of forming an alliance with Duge, and to pull some investments for Duge from home.

The offspring of the elite academy knew very well the importance of their own future prospects.

…

“Brother Qi, don’t trust them.” Once everyone had left, Yin Erchuan’s expression became extremely serious. Looking at Duge, he warned, “Once the round-robin exam system starts, after the second round, there will be a free-for-all among different grades. Eight or nine out of ten, we won’t be in the same exam room anymore. The rewards for the top ten in the simulation field are very high. I suspect that after they’ve used you, eight or nine out of ten will turn on you to compete for rankings. We carry our families’ missions; no one cares about the future of a student from an ordinary academy.”

Gao Ming’s eyebrows suddenly twitched, his brow furrowed.

“I know.” Duge nodded, smiling, “But I think, my personal charm is enough to transform them. Like you, at the beginning we were enemies, but didn’t we end up living together peacefully, and even became friends in reality?”

“Brother Qi, don’t take this lightly.” Yin Erchuan said seriously, “At least we have shared hardships… We’ve been through a simulation field together and have a base of trust, but with them? It’s just the acquaintance of a meal.”

“Hmm, got it.” Duge chuckled, looking at Yin Erchuan, “How about, we switch to a new secret code, one for our own little group?”

“That’s the way to do it.” Yin Erchuan said, “Our little team is the truly inseparable one.” He glanced at Gao Ming, “Of course, now we have to include Brother Gao, our four-man team is inseparable.”

Gao Ming smiled back at him.

“Let’s use ‘chicken stewed with mushrooms’!” Duge laughed, “Erchuan, later you contact Wang San and tell him this secret code. Anyone who matches ‘chicken stewed with mushrooms’ is one of our own.”

Gao Ming’s eyebrows rose again. He looked at Duge—a King Covers the Tiger for three different codes; was this still his familiar roommate?

Did the first place in the simulation field really toughen people up this much?

“No problem, I will contact Wang San, and then we’ll meet up again.” Yin Erchuan snapped his fingers, smiling.

He handed over the Body Training Method to Duge, “Brother Qi, at least three or four months before the next simulation field starts. Practice the Body Training Method a lot, try not to take such risks coming out here again, not everyone is willing to work with you. Mr. Zhao, Qiao Pingjiang, they were kicked out of the simulation field by you at the last minute, they might just want to get rid of you!”

“Yeah, I will.” Duge took the Body Training Method naturally, without being polite to Yin Erchuan. In this strange alien world, he desperately needed various resources to arm himself, and refusing them would be his own loss.

Seeing Duge accept the method, Yin Erchuan sighed, “Brother Qi, don’t blame me, this is just a slightly better than average Body Training Method. I can’t bring out anything of a higher level.”

Duge glanced at him and smiled, “I understand; I have a relationship with you, not with your family.”

“Anyway, practice it for now!” Yin Erchuan gave a wry smile and picked up his drink for another sip, “If the round-robin exam system really starts, and if Yongan fails to keep control and chaos ensues, being stronger physically gives you a higher chance of survival. If you really get a chance to stand out from the round-robin system, there will be plenty of good cultivation techniques available.”

This damn world!

Duge’s expression darkened, and he cursed under his breath.

“That’s it then; I should be getting back too.” Yin Erchuan stood up, slightly tipsy, swaying a bit as he got to his feet, “I also need to talk to my family about the alliance with those few rascals.”

He saw Yin Erchuan off.

Duge and Gao Ming also left the Celebration Building.

On the way back to school, Gao Ming was visibly despondent. He looked at Duge and said, “So these are elite academy students? No wonder we can’t compete with them; they are all too shrewd. Among this group, only Erchuan is somewhat honest. Old Du, if I were in your shoes, I’d be played to death by them.”

“Old Gao, don’t sell yourself short,” Duge replied. “Think of it this way, what if Yin Erchuan isn’t such a good guy either!”

“…” Gao Ming fell silent.

Duge looked towards Gao Ming and suddenly put an arm around his shoulder, “Old Gao, no matter how good Yin Erchuan is, can he be better than our friendship that we’ve grown up with? There might just be someone pretending to be you to get close to me. How about, we also make up a secret code for us?”

“…” Gao Ming was taken aback and asked incredulously, “Make up a secret code too?”

“Yeah,” Duge nodded and said, “Let’s use ‘Mr. Du is the most powerful.’ How about that?”

“Fuck!” Gao Ming’s eyes twitched as he flipped Duge off, then nodded, “Okay.”
