The mutant collapsed, bleeding all over the ground.
Everyone was so immersed in Chu Zhou's stunning slash that they only realized that the mutant was dead after some time.
"This terrifying monster is finally dead!"
Ling Zhan, Li Qingshi, Liu Qianqian, and the others let out a long sigh of relief.
They had finally survived this calamity.
"He's too strong, far surpassing me!"
Ling Zhan watched Chu Zhou, who was standing beside the mutant's corpse, with a complicated expression and a trace of admiration in his eyes.
Chu Zhou was also reminiscing about that slash just now. He imprinted the state he was in just now into his heart bit by bit and turned it into an indelible memory.
He was confident that he would be able to use such a move at will after a period of time.
"…However, we still have some trouble to deal with even though I killed the mutant."
Chu Zhou muttered to himself as he looked at the other humanoid monsters around him.
"Eh, something seems to have happened to these humanoid monsters!"
Chu Zhou discovered that all the humanoid monsters were lying on the ground twitching and letting out miserable roars.
"What's wrong with these monsters?"
Li Qingshi, Liu Qianqian, and the others walked to Chu Zhou's side and looked curiously at the monsters lying on the ground twitching.
"I don't know…"
Chu Zhou pondered for a moment and said,
"Perhaps these created monsters have some fatal flaw and can't survive for long. And their time is up…"
All the twitching humanoid monsters suddenly froze before Chu Zhou could finish speaking.
He walked to a humanoid monster and squatted down to take a look. He realized that this humanoid monster no longer had any vitality.
"Dead!"
He said calmly.
"It's good that they died! If these monsters are still alive… We'll be in trouble!"
Everyone finally relaxed, feeling like they had survived a calamity.
They were truly safe only at that point in time.
Many students couldn't help but cry.
It was really too dangerous. They were the lucky few that survived.
…
At the entrance of the town.
Zhang Yaoyang suddenly broke away from Big Sister Saber and the others. He took out an electronic machine and looked at the display screen on it.
There were several gray dots on the screen.
"They're all dead in less than an hour? Looks like the Type-B Beastification Potion still needs improvement!"
He muttered to himself and then looked at Big Sister Saber and the others.
"Everyone, the game is over. I still have something on, so I won't be playing with you any longer!"
He laughed loudly and turned into a shadow before disappearing.
Sister Dao and the others were helpless. They could not stop an Extraordinary Realm Expert from leaving at all.
"Get into town and see how many people are still alive."
Big Sister Saber and the others quickly reacted. The most important thing now was the safety of the students. They immediately rushed into the town at full speed.
A moment later, Big Sister Saber and the others arrived in front of Chu Zhou and the other surviving students.
"Chu Zhou!"
Big Sister Saber's tensed heart immediately relaxed seeing that Chu Zhou was fine.
"Big Sister Saber, you're here. Only Liu Qianqian and I survived… I've not seen Zhou Tong and Jin Zhennan. I reckon that they died at the hands of these humanoid monsters."
Chu Zhou said.
"It's good that you survived!"
"As for Zhou Tong and Jin Zhennan, I can only say that they were unlucky. The Elite Trials are already dangerous to begin with. It's normal for them to die with this sudden turn of events…"
Big Sister Saber said lightly. She knew of Zhou Tong and Jin Zhennan's "bad deeds" during Operation Storm and did not have a good impression of these two people. She naturally did not care about their lives.
At this moment, the teachers-in-charge of the high schools and the commissioners of the six universities also learned the entire story from the other students.
Their expressions changed when they learned that it was Chu Zhou who had turned the tide and killed the quasi-martial artist mutant, saving all the survivors.
"Chu Zhou, we all agree that you are the first place in this elite trial based on your points and your contributions."
"We will reward you with a tube of genetic potion according to the rules."
"In addition, you've done a lot this time. The city government will definitely reward you…"
After a discussion, the teachers of the ten high schools confirmed that Chu Zhou was the first place in this elite trial and announced it on the spot.
Ling Zhan, Shi Meng, Li Qingshi, and all the surviving students did not have any objections.
They all thought that Chu Zhou deserved it.
"I did it! I've obtained a genetic potion!"
Chu Zhou was overjoyed.
His goal of participating in the elite trial had finally been achieved.
How difficult would it be for him to become a true martial artist with the genetic potion?
The teachers of the top ten high schools announced Ling Zhan as second place, Shi Meng as third place, and Li Qingshi as fourth place.
Ling Zhan and Shi Meng also received the genetic potion as reward.
Li Qingshi, on the other hand, was a little sad.
However, she quickly perked up.
This was because a teacher had said that Li Qingshi's performance in this unforeseen event was outstanding and her contributions were sizable. It was very likely that the higher-ups would make an exception and reward her with a tube of genetic potion too.
This gave Li Qingshi hope again.
"Alright, we will only announce the top four in this elite trial for the time being. We will inform you of the other rankings soon…"
"…Such a big event happened here. We have to first contact the police to deal with the matters here."
The teachers did not continue to announce the rankings. Instead, they contacted the police station and asked them to handle the matter.
They had to take the entire situation seriously, especially the corpses of those humanoid monsters.
They could foresee that this incident would probably cause an incomparably huge storm.
"Chu Zhou, my name is Guo Tao. I'm from the First Military University. I wonder if you have time. I want to have a chat with you!"
"Ahem Ahem… Chu Zhou has just experienced a cruel and bloody battle. He must be very tired. Mr. Guo Tao, don't make things difficult for him. Chu Zhou, you must be hungry and tired now. I've reserved a private room at the Four Seasons Restaurant. Why don't we go eat something first?"
"Yan Qing, you've learned how to play tricks, haven't you! Chu Zhou…"
At this moment, Chu Zhou was surrounded by the commissioners from the six universities.
These commissioners greeted Chu Zhou warmly. Some even wanted to talk to Chu Zhou alone.
They were too enthusiastic.
However, it was no wonder that these commissioners were so enthusiastic.
Chu Zhou had killed a quasi-martial artist mutant!
An Advanced Apprentice had actually killed a quasi-martial artist creature. How much potential did he have?
It would be foolish not to quickly think of a way to pull Chu Zhou into their university.
Chu Zhou looked at the university commissioners who were staring at him like wolves and tigers and felt his scalp tingle.
Of course he knew what these commissioners were after.
However, he had yet to figure out his future path, so he could not give these people an answer.
He had to go back and think carefully about his next step after advancing to a true martial artist.
"Commissioners, Sires, I'm not feeling well right now. I don't want to consider the matter of joining the university for the time being… I'll give you an answer after a few days of consideration."
"Teacher, let's go back!"
Chu Zhou said politely to the commissioners and followed Big Sister Saber out of the place quickly.
"Alright! Let's go back!"
Big Sister Saber nodded with a smile. She scooped up Chu Zhou and Liu Qianqian's hands and left, leaving only a shadow.
…
In a forest.
Vicious Wolf Zhang Yaoyang's figure quickly flew into this small forest, but he realized that the subordinates he had asked to wait for him were nowhere to be seen.
"Where are they? D*mmit, where did they go?"
He said angrily.
"They're waiting for you in hell!"
A lazy, fat middle-aged man who seemed to have no motivation suddenly walked out from behind a big tree. He even broke a tree branch and held it in his hand.
"Who are you?"
Zhang Yaoyang's body suddenly tensed up and his pupils constricted. He looked at the fat middle-aged man in front of him with extreme vigilance.
He, a dignified Extraordinary Realm Expert, actually did not even notice when the other party got here.
This was too abnormal.
"Do dead people need to know so much?"
The fat middle-aged man said lazily.
Escape!
Zhang Yaoyang looked arrogant on the surface, not even caring about the government's arrest warrant.
However, he was, in fact, an extremely cautious person.
Otherwise, he would not have lived until this day with his arrogant personality.
He immediately turned around and fled without probing further, sensing that this lazy fat middle-aged man might be an extremely dangerous figure.
However, he had just turned around and fled less than ten meters when a young tree branch pierced through the back of his head and emerged from his forehead.
Pu!
Zhang Yaoyang, who was incomparably arrogant in front of Big Sister Saber not long ago,died silently in this unknown forest.
"What kind of trash character dares to come to Jiang City to cause trouble… Don't you know that Boss likes peace and quiet?"
"Sigh, it was supposed to be a weekend. I originally had plans to plaza dance with Aunt Wang and the others but it was wasted just like that…"
The fat middle-aged man muttered unhappily. He stepped over Zhang Yaoyang's corpse and lazily walked out of the forest with his hands in his pockets.
However, he took a long look in a certain direction of the forest before he left.
After the fat middle-aged man disappeared, two figures jumped down from a dense tree.
One of them was Silver Fox Su Bai.
The other person was a burly figure in a black robe.
"What a terrifying person. Did you see that? The waters in Jiang City are deep! I might die here without anyone knowing like that idiot Zhang Yaoyang if I dare to cause trouble here…"
Su Bai said to the black-robed figure beside him.
"Young Master is right. The waters of Jiang City are indeed deep."
The black-robed figure nodded solemnly.
"I've never heard of that person… I don't think many people know that there's such an expert hidden in Jiang City."
"Alright, the waters of Jiang City are too deep. Let's leave this place as soon as possible. We don't want to get in the way of some existence that will end up killing us!"
With that, he disappeared with the black-robed figure.
