Battling Records of the Chosen One Chapter 284: The Final Assessment
Proofread by Claire.KK
Shue Jin pondered for a long time and finally sighed softly.
According to the instructions, he could only tell Lin Xun about it and he couldn’t give him any more help.
Shue Jin had a strong presentiment that when Lin Xun knew all this, he would not choose to retreat according to his temperament.
…
Three days passed in a hurry.
Lin Xun did not know that on that night three days ago, a Dark Six-wing Falcon came to the courtyard where he lived.
He also didn’t know that his background had caused a turbulence in the Forbidden City, the capital of the distant empire.
Now his mind was all on Province Test. After three days of restoring, he had recovered from his injuries.
Lin Xun was particularly pleased that after the third round assessment, his control of the Nine Strikes of Shaking Heaven had gone through the Initiation and started to reach Nuance.
Nuance meant insight into subtle. Only by mastering the essence and mystery of a skill could people truly exert the full power of a skill.
Early that morning, Lin Xun washed and stepped out of the courtyard.
Today, the final round of Province Test would be launched. Whether the Nation Test certificate could be obtained smoothly depended on today’s battle.
…
In Mist College,
The crowd was gathering, the grand occasion was unprecedented!
The seats were already full of dense figures, looking forward to today’s battles.
After three rounds of assessment, only 200 practitioners had successfully entered the last round.
Today, the two hundred screened out practitioners would compete with the last 100 winners of the previous filter.
“The last round of assessment has finally arrived. I don’t know who can stand out this time and become the biggest winner of the test.”
“Of course it will be Lin Xun!”
“It’s hard to predict. In the third round of assessment, although Lin Xun’s performance is extremely dazzling, there are many top practitioners who can fight against him, such as Shue Shaolin, Yu Wenjing, Yun Zitong and so on.”
“Are you kidding? Even Le Zhiyou was defeated by Lin Xun. How could Shue Shaolin possibly be Lin Xun’s opponent?”
“You should be clear that the final assessment results will be a comprehensive embodiment of three rounds’ performances. According to Lin Xun’s performance before, as long as the last round of assessment goes well, he is surely to reach the top of the throne!”
“It’s irresponsibility to say that. The big shots like Governor Liu Wujun will make the final decisions. Who knows how it will go?”
There was a lot of discussion in the field, and the voice was like a wave, rolling in the sky.
In the assessment area, Lin Xun and other 199 practitioners had also been waiting there. Some people closed their eyes and meditated, some talked softly and some kept quiet in thoughts. Everyone behaved differently.

This last round of assessment was the key to determine whether they could pass the Province Test or not. If they failed, even if they performed well in the first three rounds of assessment, nothing could be changed.
Under such circumstances, the practitioners who had overcame difficulties were determined to get the final success. No one was willing to be eliminated at this last moment. In that case, the blow would be too serious.
Lin Xun stood there alone, he was somewhat absent-minded.
As he left the house in the early morning, he was keenly aware that Shue Jin wanted to say something to him, but in the end he didn’t say anything.
This seemed a little abnormal.
“Old Jin shouldn’t be so indecisive…”
Lin Xun kept murmuring.
Soon, Lin Xun could not think much about it. With the bell ringing, the last round of assessment had begun.
Like the previous three rounds of assessment, it was still by drawing lots to choose the opponent. The rule was simple—to win the test by defeating the opponent.
At present, there were only two hundred people left in the field so they just need to fight one by one. If they fail, they would be eliminated. And the winners would pass this year’s Province Test.
Then, the examiner Liu Wujun and other big wigs would judge the final ranking according to the overall performances of the winners in the four rounds of assessment.
Lin Xun’s opponent this time was a young man named Wang Kang. He came from Yun Jing, a city in southwestern. He was not well known before. But he had proved his strength after breaking out of the siege of the third round and entered the last.
In other words, almost all the 200 practitioners who could take part in the last round of examinations should be regarded as the top figures of the younger generation, and there was no ordinary man in them.
However, the top figures were also ranked. Compared with Lin Xun, Wang Kang seemed a little mediocre.
When he learned that his opponent was Lin Xun, Wang Kang let out a scream. His hand trembled and the lot stick he had drawn fell to the ground. He was devastated and helpless.
No one laughed. On the contrary, all the participants showed sympathy for Wang Kang that he was so unlucky to have Lin Xun as his opponent.
Others secretly congratulate themselves and breathed a sigh of relief, feeling extremely happy that their opponent was not Lin Xu.
Even the shining figures like Shue Shaolin, Yu Wenjing and Yun Zitong, favored by most people, felt relaxed when they determined that their opponent was not Lin Xun.
This reaction seemed extremely delicate, but it revealed that in the minds of those practitioners, Lin Xun’s prowess was frightening.
When Lin Xun saw all this, he couldn’t help being speechless. Was he so terrible?

Lin Xun finally tasted the feeling of standing out from the crowd and being overwhelmed by the unease. Of course, Lin Xun also knew that this only proved that his strength had been recognized in the territory of the southwestern province of the Empire and among the younger generations of practitioners.
In the other areas of the empire, there must be some people who were not inferior to him or even better than him.
To leave aside all this, this Province Test was held for the same generation in young ages, so there was nothing to be proud of.
At least according to the practice, he was only of Human-gang Realm after all, and there was still a long way to go.
The last round of assessment began, the whole venue was thoroughly excited. The atmosphere was unprecedented.
But for Lin Xun, this last round of assessment seemed a little boring.
His opponent Wang Kang was indeed a very powerful man. Even if he had behaved a little bit out of tune before, when the real battle began, Wang Kang showed all the advantages that a top practitioner should have, calm and focused.
Unfortunately, his opponent was Lin Xun. Wang Kang was suppressed by Lin Xun and finally lost only after a moment of struggling.
“I knew that Lin Xun would never let us down!”
“Human-gang realm as he was of, he swept through the four rounds and finally triumphed. In the past provincial examinations, few people were comparable to Lin Xun!”
“He’s a freak! I didn’t believe in genius in the world before, but after seeing Lin Xun, finally I do.”
“Three months later, it will be the opening time of the Imperial Nation Test. I hope Lin Xun could represent our southwestern province and compete with all the top people on the Nation Test!”
Numerous cheers erupted in the field.
On the White Jade platform, the governor Liu Wujun and others looked at each other, showing a natural look to this result.
Through the first three rounds of examination, they had already made it clear that no one could stop Lin Xun from passing the Province Test!
At this moment, Lin Xu’s victory undoubtedly proved their speculation was not wrong.
But when they searched through the whole scenes with their eyes, they were stunned to find that Lin Xun had already disappeared.
Obviously, Lin Xun left early again.
“This kid does not take Province Test seriously. He left as if he did not care about his result at all.”
Wei Lingzhen shook his head.
“I think it’s normal to leave at this time. I’ve been worrying about what to do if he publicizes the Golden Hall again when he wins.”
Du Dongtu laughed, “By the way, this boy is also a wonderful person. He doesn’t act in common sense and was quite different from other practitioners. It is rare to see this kind of person.”
“It would be naive for him to think that his overall score would be the first in the Province Test.”
The governor Liu Wujun sneered.
Wei Lingzhen and Du Dongtu both smiled and said with a smile, “Brother Liu, according to this kid’s temper, I don’t think it matters to him whether he is the No.1 in the test.”
Liu Wujun was stunned. After careful consideration, he couldn’t help admitting that Lin Xun was indeed different from other people. Deviance had gone a bit too far to describe him, but he could definitely be said different.
“I’m curious if he will take part in the Nation Test in three months.”
Wei Lingzhen pondered.
“He should not miss it. But whether he can win is not be sure. After all, all the practitioners in the Nation Test are great genius, some even have cultivation of Sea Spirit Realm!”
Du Dongtu murmured, “Although Lin Xun’s fighting power can compete with Heaven-gang Realm practitioners, if he encounters a real opponent, his cultivation will become his lethal weakness.”
“It’s too early to say that. When the final round of assessment is over, please join me in assessing the results of the practitioners who passed the Province Test.”
The governor Liu Wujun ordered.
All the big shots were happy to obey and bowed their heads.
But in their hearts, in fact, they already had a clear answer to Lin Xun’s comprehensive achievements.
Lin Xun left Mist Collage in a hurry and went straight to his home.
Today Shue Jin would leave. Lin Xun was afraid that this fellow would leave without saying a word. So as soon as the examination was over, he ran to leave at the first time.
Fortunately, when he returned home, Shue Jin was still there, which let Lin Xun breathe a sigh of relief. He laughed, “Old Jin, we have not had a good drink together, how about getting good and drunk today?”
If it was in ordinary days, Shue Jin would absolutely not hesitate to say yes.
But today, he shook his head and said, “Boy, since the Province Test is over, I have something to tell you.”
He had a complex look and a strange mood, which was totally different from what he used to be.
Lin Xun was upset and a slight premonition raised in his heart.

Dirge
All things are. We once dreamed of a sky filled with possibilities. Of neverending knowledge. But those were conceited times, filled with quibbling. Now we look up and fear the vastness. We fear that there’s no edge to infinity. Humanity pulled itself together. Not like you’d expect, not like you’d approve of, but the results are spectacular. We call ourselves Utopians now, to make it simple for our kin in the cosmos. We’ve moved out into the Omniverse, to unlimited resources, and to dominance over the weak. Not for gain, but to the ends of permanence and peace. The cessation of their suffering. At the apex, looking down on those confined, those unenlightened, we felt safe. So few stand shoulder to shoulder with us. Fewer yet of them are so united as we. Porter, a godkiller for the Eidolons, is out of the job. Christopher, a Magus in the Guild, has him a new one, but with motives questionable. Kendall, a failing student at the Monastery, has to deal with secrets he never wanted. Anna, her entire life just fell apart, leaving her bereft. And Doran, he awakens. Each of these people, connected as members of the Omniversal Utopian Commonwealth, are helpless to the dark truth closing in. Not even the artificial intelligence, Aku, keeper of all Utopian power, can stop the Ouroboros. It’s not a new dawn. The light is dying. Hold your breath and go gently.
