Playing a DPS Role with Absolute Defense-Chapter 58 - 57: Generous College Entrance Exam Rewards!

Chapter 58: Chapter 57: Generous College Entrance Exam Rewards!

As the college entrance examination came to an end, those challengers eliminated by Su Mo all hung their heads in disappointment.

And those family heads or national leaders who had spent a fortune to get them into the examination couldn’t help but gnash their teeth in frustration.

To give these individuals the opportunity to participate in the Great Xia entrance exam and seize the chance to become Divine Level disciples, they had paid a cost that was not just substantial but, one could say, rather burdensome.

If they could truly become the disciples of Blood Slaughter God Tu Hongwu, that would be fine, but if they failed, it was truly a tremendous loss.

After all, each of those Silver and Gold-level dungeons had been laboriously conquered by them.

Conquering dungeons doesn’t just mean clearing them; they have to penetrate all side quests and main quests to control the dungeon core truly.

In fact, these controlled dungeons could be seen as their last resort.

Each controlled dungeon not only produces abundant resources but also has ample space so that if they face a formidable enemy, their clansmen could hide within the dungeon and then close it off.

Although this doesn’t guarantee survival, it at least offers hope.

As for King-level materials, there’s no need to mention them; the King-level dungeons themselves are scarce, and acquiring King-level materials from them is extraordinarily challenging.

Every piece of King-level material has the potential to help a King-level expert break through to Demigod.

A Demigod, even at half-step Divine Level, still carries the "god" character.

Gods and humans are not creatures of the same dimension. Having a deity, even half a god, can ensure a nation’s or a family’s long-lasting peace and security. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

Becoming a disciple of a Divine Level expert makes becoming a god practically inevitable, for only Divine Level experts can acquire other Divine Level materials.

This is why some countries, or even dozens, struggle to produce a single Demigod, while countries with Divine Levels spring up like mushrooms after rain.

As a disciple of a Divine Level expert, even with average talent, becoming a Demigod isn’t an issue.

Having paid such a heavy price, and then being beaten and returning empty-handed, how could they not be angry!

At this moment, Su Mo was already standing on the podium for the top scorer in the college entrance examination.

Beneath him were two positions for Chu Tian and Xiao Hongtu. In fact, because Su Mo drew most attention, otherwise, based on their strength, they likely couldn’t have lasted to the end.

However, to Su Mo, none of this ever mattered.

Now, he only wanted to know what kind of reward the top scorer of the college entrance examination could receive.

And why Old Wang insisted he become the top scorer before reaching level 10 this year.

Regarding everyone’s anticipation of becoming Tu Hongwu’s disciple, it was predetermined, so he had no reason to care.

While Su Mo was lost in thought, the chattering host had already approached him, thrusting the microphone to his mouth.

"Su Mo, as this year’s top scorer, do you have anything to say to everyone?"

Su Mo hesitated for a moment before slowly speaking: "Oh, study hard, progress every day!"

"Hahaha, what a plain and simple piece of advice. So, can you tell everyone what you’re thinking while standing here?"

"I want to know what the reward for being this year’s top scorer is, and when it will be awarded."

Even the very chatty host was at a loss for words upon hearing Su Mo’s response.

"Su Mo, you’re indeed pragmatic. However, the top scorer’s reward should soon be distributed as a dungeon reward to your System Space.

Now that you’ve become Blood Slaughter God Tu Hongwu’s disciple, are you still considering joining a university, or which university might you choose?"

Su Mo hadn’t actually considered this, but the college recruiters watching on TV were desperate to strangle the host for asking such a question.

Of all the things you could ask, why that one?

It would have been fine if Su Mo hadn’t answered, but if he did, what would happen to other universities’ recruitment?

Such matters should have been resolved discreetly, with universities competing for the top scorer.

And yet, you had to bring it up; what a mess you’ve created!

Despite such thoughts, all the college recruiters were eagerly watching Su Mo, hoping to hear the name of their school from his lips.

"I haven’t decided yet; perhaps I’ll go back and discuss it with my teacher."

After a few more minutes of interviews, the host returned to his platform and addressed the camera:

"Alright, welcome to this year’s college entrance examination live broadcast. Up to now, the exams are over,

let’s give a warm round of applause for this year’s top scorer, and also wish the other students...

Gratitude to the international friends as well...

This concludes today’s broadcast!"

With a flash of golden light, all the students left the examination dungeon.

When Su Mo opened his eyes, he found himself still standing in the same place, but this location wasn’t the Celestial City High School’s field, but the podium for examination awards in the dungeon.

He glanced around to find no one else present; the hundred arenas in the vast dungeon stood in place, only he was left alone, nothing else existed.

[College Entrance Examination Reward Settlement in Progress...]

Initially worried that something might have gone wrong with the dungeon, he relaxed after hearing the system prompt.

[Three-Eyed Race Farming, Killed Three-Eyed Race: 14,100 points]

[Ranking Contribution, Holding Position on No.1 Arena: 1,000 points, Eliminating 280 Challengers: 28,000 points]

[Becoming the Top Scorer, All Points Multiplied by 10]

[Total Points: 431,000 Points! (Points can be used as currency to exchange items in major trading houses)]

[Congratulations on Becoming the Top Scorer, Receiving the Top Scorer Title]

[Top Scorer Title: Increases fame in Great Xia by 30%, Experience Gain Rate by 10%, All Attributes Boost by 2%]

Upon seeing this system prompt, Su Mo almost jumped up in excitement.

No wonder so many aspired to be the top scorer; just this title alone could make countless people chase after it.

A 2% boost in all attributes within Great Xia and a 10% increase in experience gain; Su Mo couldn’t speak for others, but for him, it was undoubtedly a divine blessing.

Coincidentally, after the exams, he was contemplating how to gain more experience to level up; it’s like someone handed him a pillow just as he wanted to sleep.
