Chapter 312 The assessment begins
The Luo siblings looked at Ruan Zilu, whose face was pale, with concern.
Luo Youhui couldn't bear it and suggested, "Zilu, why don't you give up on this assessment? Maybe next year's assessment will be easier."
This year's assessment was far more difficult than in previous years, and many trainees have already chosen to drop out.
“No…” Ruan Zilu shook her head stubbornly. Although her face was still pale, her eyes were firm: “I… I must participate.”
Xi Yu smiled faintly and squeezed Ruan Zilu's cold hand to comfort her: "Don't worry, you are much stronger than you think. And although the test content seems very harsh at first glance, the chances of passing are actually quite high."
Luo Zuoling tilted her head, puzzled, and asked, "What do you mean?" She also didn't want Ruan Zilu to take any risks, after all, it was too much to risk one's life for an assessment.
Xi Yu slowly explained: "The assessment requires you to survive alone in the valley for a month, which is not difficult. There are plenty of resources in the valley, both food and water are abundant. Then there is killing the mutants, which is even easier. The school has not specified the types of mutants to hunt, so Zilu can choose to kill those smaller mutants that pose less of a threat."
"Besides using weapons, making traps is also a good way to hunt. With a month to spare, Zilu can slowly complete the mission."
Ruan Zilu couldn't help but raise her head. After hearing what Xi Yu said, she suddenly realized that it wasn't actually impossible for her.
"Just remember, at the very beginning of the assessment, you need to find the safest place to settle down. Use this place as the center and slowly collect the mutated species' cores. Choose a place where mutated species are rare to ensure your safety. Although it will be slower, at least it will be safe," Xi Yu said calmly.
Luo Youhui suddenly had a flash of inspiration and exclaimed, "Hmm... now that you mention it, it doesn't seem that difficult! Besides, there are materials everywhere in the valley, so we can make our own traps. Hunting the mutants shouldn't be too hard!"
Then he looked annoyed; they had already missed this year's assessment.
"The assessment only starts tomorrow. You have one night to prepare, so don't rush. Focus on doing what you can do first," Xi Yu gently comforted her.
The initial panic in Ruan Zilu's eyes had disappeared. She nodded with her lips tightly pressed together: "You're right. I need to pull myself together and take this opportunity to memorize the terrain of the county valley!"
"Thank you, Xiaoyu!" Ruan Zilu shook Xi Yu's hand back, deeply moved.
The Luo siblings also volunteered to help Ruan Zilu and Xi Yu find terrain data of the county valley, and taught the two how to make simple traps using readily available materials. When it comes to making these prank devices, the Luo siblings believe that no one dares to claim to be better than them.
Before dawn the next day, all the trainees who were going to take the test had already gathered on the playground.
This year, there were a total of 965 candidates, of which about 600 were three-year students, and surprisingly, there were more than 100 one-year students.
Among the people Xi Yu knew, Ruan Zilu, Di Han, Fang Yiqing, Jiang Ze, and Wei Zijing all chose to participate!
Many trainees participated in the assessment with the intention of gaining experience; as long as they didn't die, they would have two more chances to take the assessment.
After that, the school assigned each person an identical backpack containing basic equipment, and even the clothes were all specially made camouflage uniforms.
