Chapter 216 The Awakening of the Super Guide (31)
As soon as Jingli entered the system, this was the scene before him—the indicator lights representing the mental state of the sentinels were all bright red in his field of vision.
He acted faster than he thought, quickly channeling his mental energy to guide all the sentries connected to him.
Having undergone intensive training, he was no longer using the Black Bear for the first time. During his first attempt at channeling the energy, he only stabilized the mental state of all the sentinels below the red line, without rushing to bring everyone below the safety line.
Taking advantage of this lull, he opened the mental energy fluctuation curves of the sentinels and confirmed that several with higher fluctuations had undergone a second channeling.
It wasn't that he favored one over the other; the higher the sentry's mental energy fluctuations, the closer they were to the front lines, and they were either captains, acting as "weapons," or both.
The term "knives" can be understood as the vanguard or suicide squad in a mission. They are at the forefront behind the detection machines, facing the highest risk, but also ensuring the safety of the teams behind them.
Therefore, the mental strength of this group of sentries must be guaranteed.
Next is the captain. In battle and in critical situations, the captain's task is the most arduous.
They need to be thoroughly familiar with all team members' mental strength levels, mental bodies, and preferred tactics, and also have a comprehensive understanding of the overall situation to ensure that all resources are used effectively.
If the captain loses control, it will be a huge blow to the squad.
Jingli focused on keeping the situation of these sentries under control near the safety line, which made it much easier to check on the situation of the other sentries.
This is also an experience he gained from countless simulations.
Once things calmed down a bit, Jingli finally had a chance to realize that the scene seemed familiar – wasn't this the same situation that Qi Jian's team had encountered back then?
Jingli blinked.
All the scenarios in the simulation library are not imagined out of thin air. Like the library used in the training camp, they are all based on real-life scenarios and are formed through data deduction to create such ultra-realistic scenario simulations.
The thought that some of the points connected to him might contain data belonging to Qi Jian made Jingli's heart skip a beat.
He instinctively wanted to search for it, but then forced himself to dismiss the idea in the next second.
It wasn't because he knew it was just an exam, but because he knew—his current identity was that of a military guide, even if he was only a reserve.
His task was not to protect Qi Jian alone, but to preserve the entire team as much as possible.
Just like what Qi Jian did back then, even if it meant putting himself in dire straits, he wanted to preserve more talent for the country.
Thinking of this, Jingli's eyes reddened.
Every battle he had experienced during the previous training camp felt real at this moment, and Jingli finally felt the weight of the burden on his shoulders.
He thought he would shoulder the responsibility.
For his lover, and for this world, for all of these worlds.

The application assessment in the scene takes half an hour in reality.
But the simulation program goes far beyond that.
In the live-streamed assessment room, because the chat was muted, there was no other discussion except for the proctor's explanation.
But that doesn't mean people aren't interested.
From the start of the assessment, each candidate had their own exclusive assessment live stream room. As the first S-level guide in Blue Stone Kingdom, Jingli had the highest initial number of viewers. During the basic assessment, there was some diversion of viewers, but after the application assessment began, the number of viewers increased significantly.
The proctor in charge of the on-site commentary was extremely excited. Every time Jingli performed a skillful maneuver to keep all the sentries' mental states stable, he couldn't help but shout, "Beautiful!"
The further he went, the more sentinels were connected to the scene, and the unknown creatures began to move towards him.
But Jingli remained calm. His slender fingers flew across the heavy armor's control panel, arranging nearly a hundred sentries according to his own priority. Just as the fissure in the ground was about to reach his feet, he seemed to have timed it perfectly, and with a stomp of his heavy armor—
The heavy armored figure leaped nimbly through the air and landed precisely in a safe spot to the side.
At the same time, Jingli's spiritual body also materialized in the virtual space. The panda cub from before had become enormous, as if it were truly the iron-eating beast under Chiyou's command.
Its enormous claws lashed out at the unknown creature's tail, which was hidden underground. The creature let out a shriek and burrowed into the ground to escape.
The sound wasn't a real "sound," but rather some kind of mental wave; even in space, Jingli still felt a buzzing pain in her ears.
But his movements did not slacken in the slightest. With a light tap of his finger, he stabilized several dots that were about to turn red.
This whole operation, which seemed to take no more than ten seconds to outsiders, left a lasting and profound impact on everyone.
Especially when the panda appeared, even the captains with rich combat experience were stunned.
The registered spiritual entity in the scene is a chinchilla, but the spiritual entity that appeared today is a panda.
Moreover, this panda was not as timid and gentle as the other guides' spiritual entities; its claws were capable of injuring unknown creatures.
Even though this is just a simulated scenario, the data on the unknown creatures is absolutely real.
What does this mean?
Jingli is not only the first S-class guide in Bluestone Kingdom, nor is he the first dual-spirit guide in the world; he is also a guide with combat capabilities that surpass those of Sentinels.
Everyone present held their breath, and not a single person uttered a sound.
It's easy to imagine that this live broadcast will likely change the global landscape.
After a long pause, the commentator silently turned off his microphone and sighed, "If only seven years ago..."
He didn't finish his sentence, but everyone understood what he meant.
If Jingli really was there after that incident seven years ago.
The Blue Stone Kingdom must not be like it is now.

After Jingli finished her application assessment, the other sentries' assessments were still ongoing. Jingli changed into heavy armor at the teamwork assessment location and waited, while also taking the opportunity to carefully study her teammates' assessments.
The training program for sentries differs from that for guides, so these sentries had previously practiced in small groups.
Among them, the captain is obviously the Snow Wolf Sentinel who previously represented the new students. As the guide, Jingli first needs to understand the Snow Wolf Sentinel's combat habits in order to provide the most appropriate supplies in actual combat.
The reason guides are not allowed to participate in the daily training of sentry teams is because guides are mobile on the battlefield.
Aside from guides who have already joined the team, such as Su Qinghan, those who haven't joined the team need to adapt to the actual situation on the battlefield. Therefore, they must have the ability to understand a squad's combat habits in a short period of time.
Jingli's previous practice was all simulation; for his first real battle, he needed to be fully prepared.
Ten minutes later, the new student teams also arrived at the collaborative assessment site one after another.
