Su Yu scored a perfect 200 points in the practical combat and Eighth-Ninth Stage assessments.
The first seven stages of foundational assessment totaled 170 points, and Su Yu scored all 170.
The cultural subjects had a maximum of 100 points, and Su Yu scored 80.
Archery had a maximum of 100 points, and Su Yu scored 97.
An additional 100 points came from Merit Points.
Total score: 647 points.
When 200 points were enough to enter a War Academy, 647 points was a score that many ordinary students could only look up to like a towering mountain, never daring to imagine.
Yet in Great Xia Prefecture, such results were merely rated upper-lower.
Only scores above 700 counted as upper-middle, while scores above 800 were upper-upper.
Reaching the Qianjun Realm, earning many merits, or defeating an examiner across stages all counted as additional points.
There were even bonus points for other categories. For instance, in archery, if someone at the Qianjun Realm hit the bullseye of a target 500 meters away with a single arrow, that counted as bonus points too. Naturally, no one in Nanyuan even mentioned such a thing.
Five hundred meters away... Even with his eye aperture opened, Su Yu could not see that far, much less hit the target. Nor did he have the strength to shoot that far while keeping enough force behind the arrow.
At this moment, Su Yu somewhat understood what Bai Feng had said before.
There were many geniuses. Su Yu was nothing exceptional.
Of course, that had been somewhat exaggerated. But Su Yu was willing to compare himself. Old Xie was right: since he considered himself a genius, he had to compare himself with the very best, not with those inferior to himself.
Since ratings such as upper-middle and upper-upper existed, that
