Chapter 541 An Extremely High Elimination Rate: Jiang Chen Worries About Lin Cai'er
Jiang Chen gradually grasped the deeper meaning behind the Divine Stone dungeon.
It is precisely to select those who truly possess strength and potential.
Jiang Chen murmured, "Does getting 90 points or more in the Divine Stone dungeon mean one can become a legendary god?"
Hong Jishi laughed heartily, his voice full of open-mindedness and wisdom: "It's not that simple. Scoring above 90 points only indicates that you have the potential to become a god, but it's not a sure thing."
"However, if you can get a high score in the Divine Stone dungeon, your path to godhood will be much smoother."
"For those who can't even reach 90 points, it's almost impossible for them to reach the god level."
Li Xueru took over the conversation and explained in detail: "It has been 480 years since the discovery of the Divine Stone instance. In this long period of time, more than a million people have entered the instance."
"Of these, fewer than 500 people can achieve a score of 90 or above. And each time a dungeon opens, only about ten people can achieve such a score."
"However, among these more than five hundred people, only about fifty are truly able to advance to the god level."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen couldn't help but sigh, "Becoming a god-level being is indeed a difficult path."
At this moment, Liu Qingqing, who was standing next to Hong Jishi, smiled and encouraged him, "It may be difficult for others, but Jiang Chen, you will definitely achieve godhood."
"Old Hong has already told me about your situation, and I believe in your abilities and potential."
Liu Qingqing's eyes were full of trust and support for Jiang Chen: "If you need any help, just come to me, and I will do my best to help you."
"Thank you, Master's wife." Jiang Chen replied gratefully, his heart filled with gratitude for this kind-hearted master's wife.
Inside the Divine Stone instance, the scene changes once again.
Of the hundred people who participated in the challenge, nine out of ten successfully defeated the upgraded Wind Tiger and passed the test.
As beams of light descended, the bodies of those who passed the test were fully restored.
Both the cooldown time of skills and the consumption of physical and mental energy have returned to their optimal state.
Their scores were raised to 30 points accordingly.
However, a few people, like before, were unfortunately eliminated due to insufficient strength.
They left the instance looking ashamed and disheveled.
These people secretly vowed to work harder in their training so that they could achieve even better results next time.
Watching this scene, Li Xueru commented indifferently, "Although these people are of high rank, they are so easily defeated in actual combat. They are just useless people with high ranks but no real strength."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen secretly realized: "Rank does not represent everything; true strength lies in power and wisdom."
For Jiang Chen, facing a level 53 Wind Tiger was commonplace for a level 50 professional.
He was already used to facing enemies dozens of levels higher than himself.
The Wind Tiger is only three levels higher than Jiang Chen now, posing almost no pressure to him.
But for other professionals, such a challenge is exceptionally difficult.
In the instance, various scenes appear in a complex interplay.
Some were chased by the Wind Tiger and fled in all directions in a sorry state; others were engaged in fierce battle with the Wind Tiger, and although they seemed to be struggling, they were still able to demonstrate extraordinary combat skills.
Even more remarkable are the few who calmly deal with the Wind Tiger, who is three levels higher than them, as if everything is under their control.
The difference in combat strength began to become apparent at this moment.
Jiang Chen observed the situation on the field and noticed that several people seemed to be handling the Wind Tiger with ease, which meant that they were very strong and still had the strength to continue to challenge the later levels.
Those who are already starting to look pathetic probably don't have the chance to continue.
If they fail to pass this stage, they will inevitably be eliminated in the next stage.
Jiang Chen estimated that after this hurdle, at least half of the professionals would be eliminated.
The half-stone reward from the Divine Stone dungeon was indeed not easy to obtain. In the stands outside the VIP area, thousands of people watched intently as everyone performed in the dungeon.
They are about to enter the instance, and watching others' trials is a valuable learning opportunity for them.
They applaud when they see someone perform well;
When they see someone performing poorly, they will secretly shake their heads or even make sarcastic remarks.
"This guy is terrible. If I were in his shoes, I could definitely do better."
"You can't even beat a Wind Tiger of this level? Have you not been training properly?"
"This level of difficulty is a piece of cake for me; I can easily solo the BOSS!"
The stands were bustling with activity as spectators shared their opinions.
At the very top of the stands, a group of elderly people sat together. They smiled as they looked down at the young people, enjoying the enthusiastic atmosphere.
Most of these elderly people were also participants in the Divine Stone instance, and they knew the hardships and challenges involved.
In a corner of the stands, An Junzhi's eyes were fixed on Jiang Chen.
His eyes were filled with hatred, but he skillfully concealed it.
Now that he knows Jiang Chen's identity and knows he can't get revenge, he still can't let go of his resentment.
If you want revenge, you have to wait for the right opportunity.
An Junzhi's gaze fell on Chu Yao again, and the fire of revenge in his heart was quietly burning.
Ren Tianpeng secretly rejoiced that he hadn't made an enemy of Jiang Chen. He patted his chest and said self-deprecatingly, "Thank goodness I didn't provoke him. If I really tried to touch a general's woman, I'm afraid even ten heads wouldn't be enough for him to chop off. It seems that this beauty, Yi Ning, is destined to be out of my reach."
Although they were both in the stands, they each harbored different thoughts.
The challenges of the dungeon are in full swing.
The difficulty of the fifth level has increased once again.
The Wind Tiger's level did not continue to rise; instead, it dropped back to the same level as a professional. However, beside it, a Fire Tiger appeared, its body engulfed in raging flames.
Although the Fire Tiger is not as fast as the Wind Tiger, its attack power is stronger and its offensive is more ferocious.
Two tigers with vastly different attributes joined forces, causing many professionals to suffer greatly and end up in a sorry state.
Various comical scenes of defeat unfolded one after another, drawing laughter from the crowd in the stands.
However, they never imagined that they themselves would soon enter this instance and face the same challenges. At that time, they would also become a laughing stock in the eyes of others. Li Xueru explained: "The fifth level is the Fire Tiger, the sixth level is the Water Tiger, and the seventh level is the Electric Tiger. The four tigers of wind, fire, water, and electricity join forces to form the BOSS of the eighth level."
Jiang Chen asked curiously, "What about the ninth level?"
Li Xueru replied in a low voice: "The ninth level is called the Endless Level. Tigers of the four elements of wind, fire, water, and electricity will appear continuously, and their numbers will increase. You can get one point for every minute you persist."
Jiang Chen did the math: Meng Ande scored 94 points back then, meaning he lasted at least 14 minutes. In those 14 minutes, he must have faced countless tigers; just surviving was no small feat. Such fighting prowess was truly astonishing.
However, for Jiang Chen, this didn't seem to be a problem. He believed he could not only persevere but also defeat these tigers. Just as Li Xueru had said, the difficulty of the dungeon was gradually increasing, and people were constantly being eliminated.
By the seventh level, all four elements of wind, fire, water, and electricity were unleashed, leaving only five of the original one hundred players still persevering in the instance. A staggering 95% of the players had been eliminated.
Looking at the other five, they were also in dire straits, barely able to defend themselves against the fierce attacks of the four tigers.
Hong Jishi smiled with a hint of disdain, "This group of people is really too weak, far inferior to those of our time."
Li Xueru nodded in agreement, “Indeed, it’s impossible for every era to produce so many geniuses.”
“However, with Xiao Chen around now, all the geniuses of this era pale in comparison,” he added.
Hong Jishi laughed heartily, "That's for sure. Xiao Chen is enough to suppress an era. Luckily, I was born relatively early, otherwise I would have been overwhelmed by him too."
Upon hearing this, Liu Qingqing couldn't help but laugh out loud, "You really know how to flatter yourself."
Hung Kee-shek responded with a smile, "Whether I have a thick skin or not depends on who I'm comparing myself to. At least compared to some people, I don't have a thick skin." Li Hsueh-ju understood what he meant, but did not respond.
When the last person was eliminated, this round of the 100-person test came to an end.
No one was able to reach the ninth level and obtain the half of the talent stone.
My best score was only the seventh level, and I only got 60 points in the end.
"Second batch, 100 people, step forward!" The military's god-level expert in charge of the Divine Stone instance announced loudly.
Immediately, another group of professionals who were already prepared stepped out of the queue and quickly entered the instance.
A new round of challenges then began.
After watching for a while, Jiang Chen lost interest. He turned to Lin Cai'er and asked softly, "Are you confident?"
Lin Cai'er smiled sweetly, "No problem, I've done special training for the Divine Stone dungeon in the family's secret realm. I'm at least 70% confident that I can make it to the ninth level."
Jiang Chen nodded and whispered, "Be careful and don't push yourself. It's okay if you don't get the Talent Stone; I'll find another way."
Lin Cai'er smiled even more sweetly, "I know, don't worry, this dungeon isn't actually that dangerous."
The Divine Stone instance has indeed never experienced any incidents in the hundreds of years since its creation.
Jiang Chen knew this, so he said no more.
Yi Ning and Chu Yao watched Lin Cai'er chatting happily with Jiang Chen, and both felt a little envious. Jiang Chen, however, seemed to have no intention of asking them anything.
