"Isn't he even more handsome and capable in person than on TV?"
Do you have his phone number and his email address?
"Could you tell us what he's usually like?"
"..."
Yi Shuihan felt very strange at this moment. Being asked about his own affairs by someone he admired, who didn't even know his identity, was something Yi Shuihan had encountered before, but he still couldn't remain calm.
"Nuclear bomb is really amazing?" Looking at the two pairs of bright eyes, Yi Shuihan decided to tell the truth, "I know him. I should say that no one knows him better than me. I have his phone number, but not his email address. It's not that I don't know it, but that he has never registered for it."
"He's really handsome in person, much more so than on TV. His skills are incredibly strong, he's amazing. Usually, he's just a quiet, handsome guy. Honestly, you guys made the right choice to admire him."
While others were unaware of Yi Shuihan's true identity, Caitlin and Fiora knew it perfectly well. Caitlin had only wanted to see if Yi Shuihan would feel awkward in this situation, but she never expected him to be so honest. The more she listened, the more unbelievable it seemed, and the stranger her gaze became towards Yi Shuihan.
"Right! Right, I think so too. The Nuclear Bomb Immortal is the coolest and strongest. With him in our League of Legends, no evil criminal can stand against us."
Emma felt she had met a kindred spirit when she heard Yi Shuihan praise the nuclear bomb immortal, and excitedly said...
“Those who worship the True Immortal of Nuclear Bombs are not bad people; you are a good person.”
Calvin's face showed excitement, but his words gave the impression that he was a die-hard fan.
Chapter 712, The Method of Assessment
"It feels good to have die-hard fans."
Silently praising him, Yi Shuihan continued to explain his "true" situation to Kaven and Emma.
Once she started talking, she couldn't stop. After a full ten minutes, everyone else was getting impatient, and Caitlin finally interrupted Yi Shuihan.
"Alright, alright, you can continue chatting later. We have important business to attend to now!"
"Of course, you're the boss here, so whatever you say goes."
Since Caitlin had spoken, Yi Shuihan couldn't possibly refuse. Meanwhile, Calvin and Emma looked at Caitlin with pity, as if they hadn't had enough.
This tactic usually works, but it failed this time. Caitlin glared at them fiercely, and Calvin and Emma stood quietly to the side, no longer saying a word.
After entering the conference room and taking their seats, Caitlin first gave Yi Shuihan a brief introduction of the people present, and then began to have someone report on the current progress of the assessment.
"As of now, the number of applicants has reached 12,325. There is one day left before the final registration deadline, and the final number is expected to be around 14,000."
"The venue for the assessment has been preliminarily determined, but the assessment method is still under discussion."
"The personnel responsible for maintaining order during the examination have been arranged, and there will also be police officers outside the examination venue to maintain order on the same day."
"The logistics forces are in place and ready to respond to any emergencies."
"..."
One related message after another was reported, showing that they were taking it very seriously and had considered all aspects of the situation.
"So, the only thing left to determine is the assessment method?"
After listening to the report, Yi Shuihan spoke.
“Not bad,” Caitlin nodded. “We’ve already come up with a few plans, but nothing has been finalized yet.”
"Do you have a record? Can I see it?"
"of course can."
After receiving the records of several proposals, Yi Shuihan carefully reviewed them. Among these proposals, some advocated testing knowledge, specifically the knowledge required to be a hero, such as how to save people in different situations; others advocated directly testing strength, using scientific research machines to accurately measure the examinee's physical abilities; still others advocated testing strength and knowledge together; and some even proposed specifically testing psychological qualities to see if they could be relied upon in critical moments.
"If you trust me, I do have something here that might be of some use."
Yi Shuihan thought for a moment and then spoke.
Everyone else looked over upon hearing this, with Caitlin's eyes showing a hint of inquiry.
“What I’m saying might not be clear to you, so let’s let you try it out. That’s the most direct way. Caitlin, is there a more spacious room here?”
"The entire 21st floor is empty, about the size of two football fields. Is that enough?"
"That's enough! Everyone, please move over!"
Yi Shuihan's proposal seemed abrupt. If it weren't for Caitlin's full support for him, these people would definitely have rejected Yi Shuihan's proposal. He wanted to experiment without explaining anything clearly. Who knows if there was a conspiracy involved?
Everyone moved to the 21st floor, and Yi Shuihan began to walk around the various parts of the 21st floor amidst everyone's puzzled gazes.
"What is he doing? What does it mean to put stones on the ground? And how did those stones appear?"
"It seems like the stones are arranged according to some special pattern. What do those symbols on the ground represent?"
"For some inexplicable reason, does what he's doing actually work?"
Aside from Caitlin, no one understood what Yi Shuihan was doing. Caitlin could only vaguely see that Yi Shuihan was constructing an array, but she didn't know what kind of array it was.
About half an hour later, Yi Shuihan finished his work and returned to Caitlin's side.
"Activate the formation!" With a shout, everyone saw the marks and symbols on the ground completely disappear, along with the spirit stones, as if they had never existed.
The changes didn't stop there; three illusory portals appeared in three different areas, standing there silently.
The Inquiry Formation, the Combat Strength Formation, and the Will Formation—these are Yi Shuihan's masterpieces. In a short period of time, the three formations have been initially completed.
These three formations were originally used for sect assessments in the Kunxu Realm. Yi Shuihan found them interesting and wrote them down.
The Inquiry Formation will directly interrogate the mind of those who enter the formation. It is used to check whether the person entering the formation has evil intentions and whether they have ulterior motives for joining the sect. It can be said to be a celestial version of a lie detector, pointing directly at a person's soul.
The combat strength formation is used to test a person's strength. Those who enter will face a number of enemies. The longer the time, the more numerous and stronger the enemies become. A person's combat strength is calculated based on the time they can endure. Although this method cannot fully test a person's strength, it will not be too far off.
The Willpower Array can reveal whether a person's will is firm. A person's character and willpower are very important. As a hero, if one's character is not good and one's will is not firm, one is easily influenced by the outside world and is destined not to become a true strongman.
"You can go in and try it out. I believe you'll understand what I mean after experiencing it."
As soon as Yi Shuihan finished speaking, before anyone else could make a move, Kaven stepped forward first.
"Big brother, you are a good person, I believe you."
Another "good guy" card was issued, and Kaven directly entered the portal representing the Inquiry Array.
After Calvin entered the portal, he vanished completely.
Yi Shuihan waved his hand lightly in the void, and a scene appeared in front of the portal, showing Kaven entering the formation.
Everyone watched the scene with curiosity, wanting to know what would happen next, and they began to feel a sense of awe towards Yi Shuihan's methods.
"Where is this place?"
As soon as Kaven entered the formation, he suddenly felt a blur before his eyes and then found himself in an unfamiliar place. He was standing on a high platform, surrounded by darkness.
What was your original intention in becoming a hero?
Suddenly, a sharp shout rang out in the void, and then Kaven saw countless pairs of eyes appear, silently watching him and putting him under considerable pressure.
Involuntarily, Calvin began to speak.
"I'm here to find someone with the same power as me, and also to change my environment."
Chapter 713, An Awkward Question
The sound from the video was clearly transmitted, and everyone watching was stunned. In particular, Kavin's eyes suddenly became vacant, and he kept answering various questions as if he had lost his soul.
Anyone with eyes can see what's going on. Calvin is completely under control, and what he says is definitely true.
Do you have someone you like?
“I like Emma, but she treats me like a brother, and I’ve never dared to tell her.”
How long is your penis?
13cm
"you……"
The earlier questions were all about Kaven's purpose in joining League of Legends and what he would do in various situations, to see if he was suitable to be a hero. However, the last few questions really stunned everyone, and they all looked at Yi Shuihan with strange eyes.
Holy crap! This is absolutely outrageous! How can someone ask such a question? Are they trying to kill us?
Putting themselves in Calvin's shoes, the thought of answering these questions naively sent chills down the spines of all the men present.
As for the few women, their faces turned red, and they didn't dare to look at Yi Shuihan.
"Brother Calvin... does he like me?"
Emma was quite shocked to hear Calvin say that he liked her; her eyes blinked, and she seemed very shy.
"This really wasn't something I did on purpose. It's probably because the time for setting up the formation was too rushed, so some things weren't set up properly. When he comes out later, everyone should refrain from bringing this up."
Yi Shuihan quickly came out to clarify that he was truly innocent. When setting up the formation, the questions asked were not controlled by Yi Shuihan. He only gave a general range, and the formation sensed his thoughts and then asked the questions automatically.
Of course, it's possible to actively control what questions are asked, but Yi Shuihan thought it was just a small test and didn't pay much attention to it, which led to the tragedy and caused him to lose most of his integrity in front of dozens of people.
Suddenly feeling a warmth in his palm, he realized that Caitlin had been holding his hand without him noticing.
"Fortunately, she still believes in me."
A feeling of emotion was rising within him, but the next moment, Caitlin's voice transmission rang out.
"I didn't expect you to be so naughty, but you're so cute like this too."
Uh, I was actually teased by a girl. The feeling of being touched vanished instantly, leaving only a deep sense of awkward silence.
Fortunately, the questioning of those few lewd demons was nearing its end. When Kaven came out, everyone stopped paying attention to Yi Shuihan and went to ask Kaven how he felt, which relieved Yi Shuihan's embarrassment considerably.
"What happen to you guys?"
Calvin sensed that everyone was looking at him strangely, and immediately asked a question.
"Don't you know what just happened?"
This question made the others feel strange. They had already asked Calvin how he felt and whether the initial questions had affected him. Calvin said he remembered them, but he didn't care about the last few personal questions and asked everyone what was wrong.
"I only remember the first few questions, and then I'm completely confused. Did something happen later?"
Calvin wasn't stupid; he immediately guessed.
They only remembered the first few questions, no wonder! Thinking of Calvin's expression, everyone immediately realized that Calvin must have been completely under control by then!
Even if they knew, no one would tell Calvin what happened. Who knows how Calvin would react if he knew the truth?
"Emma, tell me what happened!"
Calvin noticed the change in atmosphere and subconsciously asked Emma, whom he felt had a good relationship with.
“Brother Calvin…you…”
Emma was very conflicted after learning that Calvin liked her. She couldn't quite process it and didn't know how to handle things between them. When Calvin asked her a question, she opened her mouth but ultimately didn't give him the answer he wanted.
"Karvin! I assure you you don't actually want to know this. We'll talk privately after the test. Now go back to the other two camps. As a hero, you should finish what you start, right?"
Yi Shuihan spoke earnestly, finally easing the awkwardness of the others.
"Yes, yes, Calvin, you should go now!"
"We're just waiting for you to come out and give us your report."
"I'll treat you to dinner and give you a bonus after you get out."
Amidst the shouts of the crowd, Kaven walked to the gate of the battle array and stepped inside.
Having learned from previous experience, this time everyone didn't need Yi Shuihan's reminder; they just looked in the direction of the gate and waited for the scene to appear.
Yi Shuihan naturally wouldn't cause trouble, and made the image reappear.
In the scene, Calvin is standing on an ancient Roman arena. First, a man in black wearing sunglasses appears and rushes over to Calvin, starting to punch and kick him.
"How did this person even appear? And he looks like an ordinary person."
"That's amazing, it must be a fake!"
"Cavan took care of him, and that's it? Wait, there are two of them this time."
One person, two people, four people, the number of people doubled each time, until it grew to 16 people. When Kaven still easily dealt with them, the next group was not 32 people, but one person.
However, this person is completely different from the first one. This person is obviously physically stronger than the average person, and his skills are also quite good. He can be described as a special agent.
The cycle repeated itself, from one agent to sixteen agents. Even Calvin found it somewhat difficult, but he managed to get through it with his superpowers.
In the third round, it was another person, this time armed, even if it was just a pistol.
The tests continued, and the difficulty gradually increased.
"Cavan's skills are pretty good! Even 16 top agents couldn't handle him."
"That's right, you don't even know who he's under."
