2400 points—this was a value only a Second Rank Spirit Tamer could achieve.
With such a large reserve of Spiritual Power Points, Ye Ling could use his spiritual techniques more flexibly without too many restrictions.
He then opened Blood Phantom’s data.
[Name]: Blood Phantom
[Genus]: Genus Undead
[Level]: First Rank, Ninth Level (Experience 99.4%)
[Growth Power]: Common
[Growth Rate]: 68.7%
[Equipment]: Blood Phantom’s exclusive Rainbow Blood Garment
[Talents]: Physical Damage Reduction (Intermediate), Magic Damage Reduction (Intermediate), Blood Mist Form, Super Regeneration
[Skills]: Bloodthirsty, Blood Fury
[Evolution]: Evolution conditions not met
The further he progressed, the harder it became to gain experience from demons of the same rank.
Before entering the Secret Realm, Ye Ling was already at First Rank, Ninth Level, and now his experience was almost at its peak.
Just a little more, and he could step into the next level.
By the time the second phase of the assessment began tomorrow, it was likely a new task would be triggered.
At that point, there might be something related to experience points, giving Ye Ling a chance to break through to First Rank, Tenth Level.
And given the system’s usual behavior, the higher the ranking in such combat assessments, the better the rewards.
Therefore, Ye Ling was eagerly looking forward to tomorrow’s combat assessment.
…
Time flew by, and the next day arrived.
The second phase of the assessment came as scheduled.
Those who did not pass the first phase were not qualified to participate in the second phase.
All eighty-two students who passed gathered at the plaza from yesterday.
However, today the plaza was slightly different, with four huge arenas set up in the middle.
These arenas were clearly today’s main battlegrounds.
All the student battles would take place on these arenas.
Around the arenas, besides the stands for the Spirit Tamer Academy representatives, additional stands were set up for people outside the academy to watch.
Some of the students who passed the assessment were from prominent families.
Naturally, their family members would come to watch their battles and care about their rankings.
There were also parents of students who were lucky enough to enter the second phase.
Apart from them, there were some common folks who came just to join in the excitement.
Among the eighty-two students, including Ye Ling, they stood not far from the arenas, waiting for Lord Shang Lingkong to speak.
In such an important occasion, how could Shang Lingkong miss the chance to give an impassioned speech?
“Congratulations! You’ve successfully entered the second phase of the assessment. Today, through combat, your rankings will be determined.
Students with higher rankings will have the opportunity to enter better Spirit Tamer Academies.
So, give it your all! Show your full strength! Demonstrate your power! Let all the academy representatives see…”
After a passionate speech, Shang Lingkong finally started to announce the competition rules.
“The second phase of the assessment is a combat assessment, with opponents randomly selected by a computer system to ensure absolute fairness.
There are three ways a battle can end: first, voluntary surrender; second, unconsciousness and inability to fight back; third, falling off the arena.
The most important rule is that when your opponent loses the ability to fight, you are not allowed to harm their life, or you will be disqualified from the assessment.
The referee will determine the end of the battle based on the situation. The winner will proceed to the next match, while the loser will retain their current ranking based on the time of elimination.”
The second phase of the assessment had few rules, with the main difference being the prohibition of fatal injuries.
With so few students left, any deaths would further reduce their numbers, which was not something Shang Lingkong wanted to see.
The stands around were already filled with people, and the eighty-two students in front of the arenas would be the focus of today’s event.
The Spirit Tamer Academy representatives were particularly enthusiastic.
They began discussing who would achieve what results.
For students with outstanding performances, lower-level Spirit Tamer Academies wouldn’t even consider them, as they wouldn’t be able to secure them.
Students like Ye Ling, Huo Xian’er, Li Shengtian, and Zhang Shengnan naturally became the focus of top Spirit Tamer Academies.
Especially Ye Ling, who suddenly became a key target for the four top Spirit Tamer Academies.
After explaining the rules, Shang Lingkong waved his hand and directly announced the start of the assessment.
“Now… let the assessment begin!”
As Shang Lingkong’s voice fell, the names of the eighty-two students on the big screen began to shuffle rapidly.
It seemed like they were being randomly paired.
The big screen finally displayed four groups of names, each with two people, totaling eight names.
At this moment, the referee stepped onto the stage and loudly announced the names on the big screen.
“Arena One: He Fei versus Chen Zhi.”
“Arena Two: Li Shengtian versus Feng Wu.”
“Arena Three…”
“Arena Four: Ye Ling versus Tian Chen.”
