Chapter 221 - 219: The Importance of Field Training! Tianming only took half the time of three goddesses!

Chapter 221: Chapter 219: The Importance of Field Training! Tianming only took half the time of three goddesses!

Jiang Han looked quite joyful, yet this did not mean that Fiona and the other leaders of Holy Cross Academy were pleased.

They were about to announce Lilith as the first-place winner. What was Lin Tianming trying to imply by showing up now?

Everyone else had finished their assessments. He watched from outside for quite a while before saying he would enter—this must be intentional disruption!

Although Fiona was visibly displeased, considering that Lin Tianming had saved her brother, she still managed to suppress her dissatisfaction and asked him a question.

"Lin Tianming, why didn’t you enter for the Holy Cross assessment earlier, and insisted on entering now?"

Facing Fiona’s question, Lin Tianming had a smile on his lips: "I just wanted to rest a bit. I’ve just come over from Jiuzhou, and the time difference hasn’t adjusted. It’s too early for me, and I’m not used to it. I needed more rest, but now that I’ve rested well, I can go in!"

[This silly kid doesn’t speak a word of truth. Clearly, he wanted to observe Lilith and the other three’s battle scenes first to better understand the power of the Awakened Beasts in the Holy Cross Assessment!]

Jiang Han thought to herself, as Lin Tianming’s teacher, these words naturally wouldn’t escape her lips.

Moreover, she had to speak up for Lin Tianming!

"Teacher Fiona, Tianming at no point said he was forfeiting. Now that he’s well-rested and wishes to go in, he shouldn’t be breaking any rules of the Holy Cross assessment, right?"

Although Jiang Han wasn’t a member of Holy Cross Academy, as a globally renowned top Top Awakened during this period, her stepping forward to speak for her student certainly warranted giving her face.

After exchanging looks with the other high-level officials of the Holy Cross Academy in the stands, making sure they all agreed to give Lin Tianming a continued chance for the assessment, she then turned back to Lin Tianming.

"There’s indeed no violation of the Holy Cross assessment’s rules. Go in and proceed with the assessment, Lin Tianming!"

"Thank you, Teacher Fiona!"

Having successfully handled Fiona, Lin Tianming smiled slightly and then stylishly stepped into the Secret Realm of the Holy Cross assessment.

Lilith, Alice, and Sofia exchanged glances as well, then looked at the visual display on the Holy Light Veil.

They soon saw Lin Tianming, who had entered the Secret Realm of the Holy Cross assessment.

They, like the spectating crowd, were puzzled by Lin Tianming’s initial reluctance to enter.

What exactly was Lin Tianming plotting? Why did he insist on entering now?

Holding such doubts, the three women tried to find a reasonable explanation through Lin Tianming’s battle.

In the Secret Realm of the Holy Cross assessment, a shadow of a Level 35 Water and Light Dual Attribute Awakening Beast slowly condensed into form.

Having observed that the sequence of attributes faced by the three Great Goddess Reincarnators was the same, Lin Tianming felt even more confident.

Almost simultaneously with the Water and Light Awakened Beast’s condensation completing, Lin Tianming took the initiative to attack.

Thunderstorm Frenzy!

Thunderous Trample!

Under the speed and attack boost from Thunderstorm Frenzy, the might of the thunder trampled by Lin Tianming’s feet was extremely fast, not giving the just-condensed shadow of the Awakened Beast any time to react, hitting it perfectly.

Since one of its attributes was water, perfectly suppressed by Lin Tianming’s thunder, the power of Thunderous Trample, already amplified by the strength of Thunderstorm Frenzy, exploded with even greater force, tearing through its body.

But this water and light Awakened Beast from the Holy Cross assessment was no ordinary Level 35 Awakened Beast.

Its power far surpassed that of a same-level Awakened Beast, so even with one of its attributes suppressed by Lin Tianming’s thunder, it still maintained most of its combat power after being electrocuted into screaming.

This Holy Cross assessment really had some substance!

It seems this assessment might actually give him a bit of fun!

Feeling this internally, Lin Tianming hardly gave the Water and Light Awakened Beast any chance to breathe or counterattack, directly employing the Thunder Wall.

However, he didn’t use the Thunder Wall for defense, but formed a square thunder prison with it, trapping the Water and Light Awakened Beast inside to undergo the horrific electrocution of the Thunder Wall.

Had he not observed patiently before, Lin Tianming would definitely have deployed his strongest Spiritual Power Ascension Skill, Soul Capture, trying to speed through this Holy Cross assessment.

But having witnessed Lilith’s Soul Attack Skill, Earth Split Demon Eye, which was no less powerful than his own Soul Capturing Skill, having no effect on these four Dual Attribute Awakening Beasts, he refrained from using his Soul Attack Skill.

These four Dual Attribute Awakening Beasts, although only at Level 35, all possessed extremely strong soul power.

Just like Lilith, who had a lower level than Teacher Jiang Han, but was also highly proficient in soul attacks, was immune to his Soul Capturing Skill.

Teacher Jiang Han, although a Top Awakened, was after all just a Thunder Attribute Awakened. Her soul power, not being specially cultivated, wasn’t her strong point.

Though the Soul Capturing Skill had little effect in this Holy Cross assessment’s four Awakened Beasts, Lin Tianming still had the confidence to be faster than Lilith and the others.

It was time to use the power of the Mechanical Ascender!

Mechanical Transformation!

Thunder Fist!

Only able to be deployed under his Mechanical Body, Thunder Fist’s power was also far beyond all Thunder attribute attack skills Lin Tianming had learned to date.

Originally, the Water and Light Dual Attribute Awakened Beast was already severely injured by the Thunder Wall cage created by Lin Tianming. This more powerful Thunder Fist was too much for it to withstand.

Boom!

With the enhancement of Thunderstorm Frenzy, Lin Tianming’s punch dispersed the power phantom of the Water and Light Dual Attribute Awakened Beast on the spot.

Throughout the process, the Water and Light Dual Attribute Awakened Beast didn’t even get a chance to fight back and was relentlessly beaten by Lin Tianming from start to finish.

Everyone outside the Secret Realm of the Holy Cross Assessment was shocked by this scene.

"This Lin Tianming from Jiuzhou, the time he took to defeat the first Dual Attribute Awakened Beast... seems to be half the time taken by Lilith and the other two!"

"Although the exact timing isn’t done, it indeed looks like he took half the time! How... how did he do it?"

"I thought he was afraid and gave up, which is why he didn’t go in! Turns out he was all prepared, calm and composed!"

The group of onlooking students nearby didn’t notice anything, but Lilith and her group thought of something.

To confirm their suspicion, they continued to keep their eyes fixed on Lin Tianming in the Holy Light Veil as he challenged the second Fire and Light Dual Attribute Awakened Beast.

When they saw Lin Tianming strategically aiming for the vulnerabilities of the second Dual Attribute Awakened Beast, and also learning from the teaching of their own various attack phases’ strengths and weaknesses, they understood why Lin Tianming had initially refrained from entering.

He wanted to first observe their battles with the four Dual Attribute Awakened Beasts, learn the skills and weaknesses of the beasts, and ascertain their individual fighting acceleration advantages, to incorporate them into his own strategy before entering the fray.

This way, he would know which actions to take at what stages to optimize the time needed to defeat the Awakened Beasts and thereby surpass the three of them!

Though Alice wasn’t the first among the three, thinking about how Lin Tianming was much faster made her feel uneasy.

"This guy Ming... I knew we should have pulled him in with us right from the start!"

Lilith also deeply shared the feeling: "We all fell into his trap, giving him a free teaching session in the Holy Cross Assessment!"

"Indeed, had we entered together, he wouldn’t have been so fast. By entering last, he optimized our fighting experiences and sped up significantly!"

Sofia also looked displeased, resenting Lin Tianming for defeating her with such tactics.

Up in the stands, Fiona and the senior leaders of the Holy Cross Academy also noticed the trick, and their expressions worsened.

However, the teachers from the Beiyin Domain and Central Holy Domain, who were previously resentful about Alice and Sofia losing to Lilith by mere milliseconds, showed schadenfreude.

Since the students they brought had lost, seeing the people from the haughty Holy Cross Academy being humbled also gave them joy.

Jiang Han, as Lin Tian’s teacher, naturally was beyond mentioning, seeing that Lin Tianming had saved almost half the time.

Next, for the third Earth and Light dual attribute Awakened Beast, and the final Wood and Light Dual Attribute Awakened Beast, Lin Tianming also managed to complete the challenge in about half the time compared to Lilith and her group.

Eventually, it was clear without precise timing that Lin Tianming spent half the time than the three girls, Lilith included, in completing the Holy Cross Assessment.

Upon successfully completing the challenge, Lin Tianming walked out from the entrance of the Holy Cross Assessment Secret Realm, and the astonished discussions of the Holy Cross Academy students also reached his ears.

Seeing their incredulous expressions, Lin Tianming enjoyed watching their reactions change.

Glancing again at the visibly upset Lilith and her group, Lin Tianming smiled at the three of them before turning to look at the stands.

"Teacher Fiona, can the results be announced now?"

Prompted by Lin Tianming, Lilith’s teacher Fiona also recovered from her shock.

Thinking about her student Lilith losing made Fiona feel very frustrated.

This Holy Cross Assessment was intended to make Lilith renowned worldwide by showcasing to the world that Xiluo Domain had finally produced a genius whose talent overshadowed all global Awakeners.

Lin Tianming’s unexpected performance, surpassing her student Lilith by half the time, was something Fiona couldn’t accept.

The high officials of the Holy Cross Academy present also found this reality hard to accept.

There was also a live broadcast of today’s Holy Cross Assessment, so even if they couldn’t accept it, the fact that Lin Tianming had won couldn’t be changed.

People watching the live stream would definitely continue to upload the footage to all major global social video platforms, letting more people know that Lin Tianming defeated the geniuses from various domains to win first place in this Holy Cross Assessment.

Initially, Lilith from the Xiluo Domain was supposed to be the protagonist of this Holy Cross Assessment, but now it turned out to be Lin Tianming, making everyone from the Holy Cross Academy feel dejected.

As the news of this assessment spreads, it wouldn’t just be the people from the Holy Cross Academy who felt defeated; the entire Xiluo Domain would be disheartened.

Xiluo Domain, which had already lost its former glory and continued to degrade, desperately needed a strong stimulant to rejuvenate all its people and give them hope of dissociating from the infiltration of Beiyin Domain.

Now, all of that was shattered because of Lin Tianming’s appearance!

"Teacher Fiona, should the announcement be made now? What are you daydreaming about?"

With Lin Tianming’s urging, Fiona set aside her despondent expression, took a deep breath, and announced the results of the Holy Cross Assessment.

"I declare, the first place in this Holy Cross Assessment goes to Lin Tianming, a freshman from the Jiuzhou Imperial Capital Emperor Academy!"
