Chapter 214: Rule-Based System



"Xiang Beifei, you've already guessed it, haven't you?" Xi Keyao whispered.

"Oh, you mean those two? I kind of figured out a little." Xiang Beifei nodded.

Currently, everyone present was guessing what the other schools' systems were, with everyone enthusiastically guessing, professors and students alike joining in the effort in hopes of thoroughly understanding the opponent's details so they could send the corresponding students to target them.

Guessing systems had become a major event!

Xiang Beifei was also seriously participating in this!

He looked at other people's system interfaces until his eyes almost tired out.

Look carefully and then make thorough records, writing down the system types of students who had competed from various schools, to later serve as a reference for Li Zimu and the others.

After all, Elder Luo could guess them, so he also wrote a rough outline. There was no need to be too detailed, and he would not be suspected of anything.

Long Guocheng originally wanted to snort with suspicion, but remembering what had just happened, he forcibly swallowed the nasal sound back down.

Because since then, Xiang Beifei had almost accurately analyzed the opponents' system abilities in every competition, and although his analysis was not as precise as Elder Luo's, it was already very close!

Soon, Lin Fan, who was on the stage, was knocked off by a Diamond Mammoth controlled by Gao Zhuo, at the Qi-Controlling middle stage.

"Jizhou University, wins!" the referee announced the result of the match.

Lin Fan climbed up from the stage, looking very dissatisfied because his strength was obviously very powerful, and he even felt that he was stronger than Gao Zhuo by a notch.

But for some reason, he just couldn't fully exert the power of lightning on the stage.

"Alright, analyze it yourselves, what did you notice?" Elder Luo asked.

Ma Ziqian immediately jumped in: "Is it a rule that can't harm weaker desolate beasts? Lin Fan hurt a Wild Spirit Horse at the Qi-Controlling later stage, but couldn't hit a Diamond Mammoth and Giant Ant at the Qi-Controlling middle stage, so I guess Gao Zhuo's system belongs to this type that can't damage opponents of a lower realm than himself?"

"No, there were two Diamond Mammoths on the stage just now; he killed one but didn't hit the other. It shouldn't be that." Li Zimu denied Ma Ziqian's idea.

Long Guocheng and Xi Keyao racked their brains, but their understanding of systems was still too little, and they couldn't come up with any possibilities for a long time.

"Xiang Beifei, what do you think?" Elder Luo asked.

"Is it a chess-like spatial rule, right?" Xiang Beifei said.

Chess-like rules?

Long Guocheng and others were slightly stunned.

What kind of ability was this?

"That's right!" Elder Luo nodded appreciatively, "then what kind of chess do you think it is?"

"I'm not sure, better let the professor say it, his experience is richer." Xiang Beifei still decided to let Elder Luo do the explaining.

As the idle expert of the team, Xiang Beifei felt it necessary to let the other teammates understand Elder Luo's ability.

Elder Luo looked meaningfully at Xiang Beifei and then said, "If you look closely, you will notice that Gao Zhuo used his Spiritual Power to turn the entire stage into a chessboard! The ground of the stage was filled with all kinds of invisible grids, and once Lin Fan was unwittingly drawn into this chessboard, he had to abide by Gao Zhuo's rules of the chessboard. And the type of this chess is Chinese chess!"

"Chinese chess?"

Everyone looked quite surprised. Was there such a capability?

"Professor, I don't quite understand, is it a Chinese chess-like system? How can such a system be used in combat?"

Long Guocheng wasn't interested in Chinese chess; he vaguely understood how to play Chinese chess but couldn't understand how such rules could apply to combat.

After all, with so many desolate beasts on the stage, didn't it look more like Jungle Chess?

"Never underestimate any system ability! Even literary Dao systems, if properly utilized, can exhibit very powerful combat capabilities. Like Gao Zhuo, he used the system of Chinese chess. If you watch the process of the battle carefully, you will notice that those desolate beasts formed of Beast Pills are like chess pieces, and every time they attack, the Beast Pills follow the movement rules of the chess pieces; they are regular."

Elder Luo turned to Xiang Beifei and said irritably, "What are you standing around for? Weren't you drawing on the whiteboard just now? Bring it out, I'll use your whiteboard notes to explain to them, it's quicker."

"Oh."

Xiang Beifei obediently pulled out the whiteboard so that his teammates wouldn't suffer losses when they encountered these experts. He drew an illustration for every battle and taught them how to respond.

He had already drawn a few points on the whiteboard and written some names.

"Just now, the Fire-Eating Wolf, the Giant Ant, and Lin Fan were all in the same straight line, with the Fire-Eating Wolf behind the Giant Ant. The flames it spat out went directly over the Giant Ant, then were blocked by Lin Fan, and then Lin Fan's attempt to hit the Giant Ant failed. Based on the rules of Chinese chess, what is the reason?"

Elder Luo pointed to Xiang Beifei's whiteboard and asked.

"Uh, I don't really understand Chinese chess." Ma Ziqian muttered.

"It's the cannon! That Fire-Eating Wolf represents the attack method of a cannon in Chinese chess! To destroy the target, there must be a piece in front to act as the cannon's mount! The Giant Ant was the mount for the Fire-Eating Wolf's cannon!" Elder Luo explained.

"Then why couldn't Lin Fan hit the Giant Ant?" Long Guocheng understood the rules of the cannon, "He is a person, not a chess piece, right?"

"That's the formidable aspect of this system's rules. If an opponent touches the attack of any chess piece, then he is forcibly considered as that chess piece. That is to say, when Lin Fan caught the attack of the Fire-Eating Wolf, he himself was also forcibly considered as a cannon! Therefore, even though the weaker Giant Ant was right in front of him, he couldn't hit the Giant Ant, because the rules of Chinese chess do not allow such an attack by a cannon! He could only target that Fire-Eating Wolf!"
