Liu Yang and the other seven students who pa.s.sed were already at school expected to leave and go to the place where all the other students were gathered. The eight were in the princ.i.p.al"s office so they could hear his words before they left.

"I am happy that you were able to pa.s.s the test, it showed how talented you are. But that is not enough, the test is just a test, the real danger is in the real Graduation Challenge. I can only wish you luck. Fight with all your power to survive the challenge. "

"Yes, the princ.i.p.al" The students bowed and thanked.

"Let"s go outside, the other students are waiting to see you" The nine went to the auditorium, where the princ.i.p.al gave his speech and spoke a little about the students and how proud he was of them.

After that, an army member took the eight students to the back of the school, a helicopter was waiting to take the students to the challenge site.

…

The place for the meeting is at the Olympic Stadium in Shanghai. All third-year students who pa.s.sed the test were gathered on-site. In total, there were almost a thousand students.

When everyone gathered, an old man dressed in military clothes appeared, he had many medals hanging from his chest.

"Students from all over the country, it is very good to see that you were interested in taking the Graduation Challenge. Some may be here to test your skills or try to get a place at Imperial University, the reason you don"t matter, the only thing that matters is your steel will.

My name is Xuan Tian, ​​the former army marshal, but I have already retired and become an army instructor and I am the person who takes care of the Graduation Challenge. Our goal is to choose the best students in the country and test their survival skills in any type of environment.

If any of you want to give up, now is the time "Xuan Tian spoke out loud before looking at everyone. No student stepped back.

"As everyone is aware of the challenges ahead, but you still prefer to stay. I congratulate you on your courage. You will leave immediately. "

A group of soldiers dressed in military uniforms appeared, they started to guide students to the cargo planes.

No student knew where they were going. The trip took a few hours before the planes stopped.

"We have arrived at our destination." A soldier spoke over the intercom.

The doors were opened and the students left, they saw that the place was surrounded by the sea, they were inside a kind of fortress in the middle of an island, around there were many other small islands.

All students disembarked from the planes and were amazed by the landscape, there was nothing around the fortress around them, the rest of the island was just forests and lakes.

The image before everyone was beautiful, white sand beaches, the sea creating waves on the horizon and the breeze blowing in their faces. This place looked like a big beach.

"Welcome to Penghu, the Sea Fortress. This will be the location of the Graduation Challenge this year. My name is Song Ji, I am the retired admiral commissionaire of this fortress, it is a pleasure to meet you. " An old man with white hair appeared and introduced himself. He was wearing a navy uniform.

"I will quickly explain what you need to do. In this year"s Graduation Challenge, you will be patrolling the fortress islands for the eight months that you will be here. The largest islands will have more students on patrol while the smaller islands will have fewer students.

However, you need to be aware of the dangers, tens of thousands of sea beasts invade the islands every day, your job is to clean these sea beasts. The more sea beasts you defeat, the more points you will receive, at the end of the challenge, these points can be exchanged for magic equipment, money, medical pills, and other things.

Another thing that can earn points is the bodies of sea beasts, the more powerful the beast, the more points you will get in exchange for the body or parts of the body.

This device can only be used by each one of you, if someone tries to steal, it will be useless, because only its owner can use it. The sailor will separate you to designate for each of your posts.

You can use your magic equipment, medical pills or anything else that you have brought. But any electronic communication equipment is prohibited, we block any type of satellite signal here during the challenge, so it is useless for you to try to send any kind of message outside these islands.

One thing you need to remember: None of us will save you when you are in danger, you need to save yourself or some other student can do that. If no one is around, you will have to trust yourself to save your life. "The admiral finished speaking and left.

Some sailors showed up with the items that will be delivered to the students.

The device for capturing the points was a round pin, the device for storing the bodies of magical creatures was a nanotechnology backpack.

After each student took their items, the sailors began to separate the groups. The largest groups had more than three hundred members, while the smallest had only one.

As there were many types of islands in Penghu, some were small while others were large.

Liu Yang"s group consisted of three students, he and two more from his school. To his surprise, they were Bai Yan and Su Min. The three were a.s.signed to a small island around the main island. They had to look for sea creatures that invaded the island.

The students were taken by boat to their respective islands, but none of them knew the real horror that awaited them for the next eight months imprisoned within Penghu.

…

The place where Liu Yang and the other two students were a.s.signed was a small island in southern Penghu. The place was beautiful and looked like a big private beach, but there was no house or anything, just a small forest, and white sand.

"How do you want to do things?" Liu Yang asked after appearing on the beach.

"We have to stay in Penghu for eight months, we have plenty of time before we start exploring. A little peace before work is good "Bai Yan wanted to enjoy the beautiful sea landscape before working.

"I have no problem with that, how about you?" Liu Yang asked Su Min.

"We must do our work first before relaxing" Su Min was against the idea of ​​resting before doing the work.

"Just relax, you can learn something interesting by doing this. Besides, sea beasts will only attack later. Let"s enjoy the weather before we work "Liu Yang took off his s.h.i.+rt. His lean body, but with muscles, was shown.

"Liu Yang, you must know that we have a job to do, we are not here on vacation." Su Min showed complaints about the casual behavior of Liu Yang and Bai Yan, the two were showing no signs of being concerned about the challenge.

"Su Min, as I said before, you need to relax a little, it can help you discover things that you don"t know about yourself" Liu Yang spoke mysteriously.

"Liu Yang, what do you mean by those words?" Su Min was skeptical after hearing Liu Yang"s words.

"Just rest and you will see." Liu Yang has already gone somewhere to change clothes, he would not do that in front of Bai Yan. Bai Yan did the same, she went to some hidden corner to change clothes.

"You two ..." Su Min couldn"t do anything about his two lazy companions who want to rest instead of working. Looking at the sea and feeling the breeze of the wind, Su Min closed his eyes to enjoy this scenery. This kind of situation was rare for him.

"It seems like it shouldn"t be a bad thing to enjoy this moment a little.

…

Inside the fortress at the highest point in Penghu ...

"Admiral, all the students have already been divided and taken to the islands. Preparations are already ready "A sailor spoke after receiving all the reports.

"I thank you for that. Let"s start with the real Graduation Challenge, I hope at least fifty will survive this year. With each pa.s.sing year, more promising students die in this challenge, but that is their bad luck. Because only the best of the best can go through the challenge, but sometimes they can be lucky as in other years. I"m curious to know who will be the lucky ones this time "The admiral began to question himself aloud.

"Admiral, should we start?" The sailor waited for the admiral to finish his contemplation before speaking.

"Yes, you can start"

"Yes sir" The sailors saluted, the admiral disappeared shortly thereafter. The sailors began to click on the b.u.t.tons on the computers.

"Is everything disabled?"

"Yes. The barriers and radio signals are already disabled, no one will be able to communicate with this island from now on, and the pieces of marine beast meat have been thrown into the sea. The invasion is expected to start in a few hours, at dusk "

"The real face of the Graduation Challenge will start soon. Enjoy it while you can, children because the nightmare will begin "The sailors began to disappear one after another after attracting the sea beasts to the islands.

In Penghu, all the other inhabitants have disappeared, leaving only the students, but soon there will also be tens of thousands of sea beasts.

That was the real Graduation Challenge.
