Chapter 66: Stunned Silence! Is This Fricking a Level 1 Summon?

"Is this his summoned creature?"
"How can a summoned creature look so much like a human?"
"This summoned creature... what the hell, why is it only level 1??"
The proctor responsible for monitoring the candidates' dungeon-related data exclaimed in shock.

They could obtain some information about his skills through the wristband worn by Lin Yi.
However, that was only basic information.
Detailed information was completely invisible.
On one hand, it was out of consideration for the candidates' privacy; on the other hand, their technology simply could not achieve it.

Yet when the level information of Lin You appeared on the big screen, even Li Qianye was somewhat dazed.
Huh?
What is he doing?
A level 1 summoned creature confronting the Golden-Winged Roc King, whose rank is genuinely at the King Tier?
Is he ignorant or brave?
Or is this one of his trump cards?
Li Qianye fell into thought.

His impression of Lin Yi could not be said to be good or bad, but at least he had an impression of him.
Unlike other candidates who couldn't even manage to leave an impression on him.
However, Lin Yi's current action, to be honest, left him somewhat puzzled.
Puzzled as he was, Li Qianye's hands did not slow down; he immediately streamed the real-time footage out through the spirit crystals.
Because at this moment, far too many eyes were paying attention to the fifth and final round of the examination.

In another auditorium just a wall away from Li Qianye.
When Li Yuanjing saw on the big screen that the person standing in front of the Golden-Winged Roc King was Lin Yi,
his vision instantly went black!
How could he be so unlucky!
The smug satisfaction he felt just a moment ago was now completely gone.
Li Yuanjing even heard the murmurs from his colleagues from other provinces who were also part of the Education Bureau system sitting around him.

"Isn't this that kid who got first place in Dongjiang this year?"
"It's him. How could Dongjiang produce a candidate with four consecutive perfect scores in past years? He must have stepped in dog shit this year."
"I really despise that smug, petty look of the Dongjiang Deputy Director!"
"Haha, me too. Their top student is going to be in big trouble this time!"
"But why is this kid all by himself? Didn't he form a party with others?"
"Every year there are always people who don't know the immensity of heaven and earth!"

Kicking a man when he's down and gossiping are human natures.
At this moment, it was vividly displayed.
Li Yuanjing clenched his hands tightly, feeling anxious and angry in his heart.
He even felt a strong urge to retort.
At this moment, another person sitting next to him patted him on the shoulder, giving him a calm look.
The one sitting beside him was naturally the head of the Dongjiang Education Bureau—
Yan Song.

"Don't worry. Trust him."
At this time, Yan Song displayed a composure far surpassing that of his deputy, Li Yuanjing.
Although he had arrived in Imperial Capital this morning during the first four rounds of exams to make final preparatory reports for this last round,
he had still been keeping an eye on Lin Yi.

He was just like Qi Guoguang.
Both of them could see that Lin Yi actually still had trump cards he hadn't used yet. Right now, perhaps that trump card could turn the tables!

...

In Dongjiang.
In the First Examination Room, inside that very same proctoring office.
At this moment, the big screen was also officially connected to the streaming of the fifth round of examinations from Imperial Capital.
As top educational institutions in various provinces, they naturally had the qualifications to watch the broadcast.

After Li Yuanjing left, out of interest in Lin Yi and concern for his own granddaughter, Qi Guoguang had naturally also come in the afternoon to watch the situation of the fifth round test.
Upon seeing Lin Yi facing the Golden-Winged Roc King on the big screen, a trace of excitement even welled up in Qi Guoguang's heart.
He was very eager to see what kind of countermeasure Lin Yi would pull out when facing such an enemy!

However, the next moment, Qi Guoguang was instantly dumbfounded.
Because he saw Lin You appearing by Lin Yi's side.
And as a mage, he could clearly perceive differences that others could not!
Necromancy Department!!
Lin Yi, besides the Fire, Wind, and Ice elements, had even mastered the Necromancy Department!!
Just how many elemental magic systems could he wield??

...

Inside the dungeon.
Looking at Lin You standing protectively in front of him, Lin Yi also felt an unprecedented sense of security.
Even though Lin You's figure looked frail and weak, and her level was only 1.
Yet Lin Yi knew that dealing with this King-Tier BOSS should not be much of a problem for her.

From the perspective of the Eye of Omniscience,
the attributes of the Golden-Winged Roc King were laid bare before Lin Yi.

[Golden-Winged Roc King]
[Level: LV.70]
[Rank: King Tier]
[Race: Silver-Winged Roc]
[Health Points: 923,000 / 923,000]
[Mana Points: 210,000 / 210,000]
[Strength: 5200]
[Spirit: 3500]
[Agility: 7330]
[Endurance: 6650]
[Active Skills: Dive Attack, Piercing Feather Storm, Wind Binding, Extreme Speed, Berserk.]
[Weakness: Eyes]

These attributes might make someone else's scalp tingle with fear.
But to Lin Yi,
this so-called Golden-Winged Roc King wasn't even worth a single hair of the Corrupted Undead Knight or the Shadow Demon Spider.
Moreover, he also wanted to see how Lin You would perform when facing a King-Tier BOSS nearly 70 levels stronger than herself.

"Screeech—!!!"
Several more sharp cries came from the Golden-Winged Roc King's nest.
Lin Yi saw another roc, slightly smaller than the Golden-Winged Roc King and covered entirely in pure silver feathers, fly out from the nest.

In addition, three even smaller fledglings poked their heads out.
This entire family lived here, and with a single provocation, Lin Yi had brought out five monsters in total.
The mother was at the quasi-King Tier.
The three fledglings were all Overlord Tier.
The strength of this family of five was indeed formidable; no wonder they could dominate the entire snowy mountain region.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Countless feathers, sharp as bayonets, shot out from the Golden-Winged Roc King's body,
flying straight to pierce all the vital points of Lin Yi's body.
Once the rank reaches the King Tier, the monster's intelligence is also vastly superior to those of lower ranks.
Directly attacking Lin Yi, the Summoner, was obviously a much more cost-effective choice.

However, fast as the feathers were, the sword light was even faster!
Lin Yi only felt a blur before his eyes, and saw Lin You stepping with sword footwork, turning sideways and raising her sword. In the blink of an eye, she slashed out four or five sword auras glowing with intense dark necromantic light, completely hacking and cutting down the incoming flurry of flying feathers!

After shattering the flying feathers, the sword light continued with undiminished momentum, slashing straight toward one of the clawing, screeching Silver-Winged Roc fledglings.
The sword light swept across the fledgling's neck.
The next moment, Lin Yi saw the fledgling's health bar plummet by a massive chunk.
Immediately afterwards, the fledgling let out a miserable cry as its health bar instantly emptied, closing its eyes and falling completely still.

Lin Yi's eyes lit up.
This was the effect of [Soul Severing]!
As a Lord-Tier monster, the fledgling's health pool was extremely thick.
Even Lin You's [Necromorphic Sword Qi] wouldn't be able to kill it with raw damage alone.
However, the mechanic of directly dealing damage to the soul allowed her to instantly obliterate this fledgling!

Seeing its offspring slain,
the male and female rocs in the sky instantly turned their eyes crimson with rage.
Then they entered a berserk state!
Their attacks were no longer directed at Lin Yi.
Instead, they targeted Lin You.

In the ensuing battle, even Lin Yi took a few steps back.
Feathers fluttered everywhere, and violent gales swept across the area.
The two rocs coordinated with each other seamlessly, one clawing, the other pecking,
commencing a frenzied assault on Lin You.
Yet Lin You looked like a dancer gracefully swirling amidst a tempest.
She did not let a single raindrop fall upon her body.
Every single attack was completely evaded by her!
Speed, agility, and combat skills were maxed straight out!

Standing nearby, Lin Yi almost couldn't help but applaud her!

In the proctoring room,
Li Qianye's eyes were practically popping out of his head.
Only level 1, yet possessing such terrifying combat power?
What kind of heaven-defying summoned creature is this?!!
