Scores Announced
Seeing his own attributes, Lin Mu's face showed a hint of excitement.
This Martial Arts Exam greatly strengthened his Mental Power.
With a little more effort, he can reach level 8.0 and then cultivate the Secret Art left to him by Lan Xuanxin.
"That feels so good!" Lin Mu couldn't help but say.
He stepped forward, and an invisible force enveloped him.
For a moment, he felt as if his Divine Soul was being affected by something.
The characters engraved deep within the Divine Soul trembled slightly.
In a short while, many memories in Lin Mu's mind seemed to be erased.
Lin Mu knew very well that this was a technique used by a high-level mental mage, and with his current abilities, he was simply no match for it.
"After undergoing a memory erasure, the efficiency is increased by 134 times."
A system voice sounded in Lin Mu's mind.
In an instant, Lin Mu could clearly feel that his Divine Soul had become slightly stronger.
However, this increase in power was not reflected on the system page.
It must be that some areas he was unaware of were improved.
He had mostly forgotten what he had experienced on the Immortal Ladder, with only a few insights into Blade Technique remaining deep in his mind.
"Strange! How did I suddenly learn a Martial Skill, and even reach the mastery level!" Lin Mu looked at the system interface with a puzzled expression on his face.
He felt a lingering fear for a moment.
How dangerous it would be if someone used this method to target him.
At that moment, an old man dressed in white appeared in front of him.
With a slight smile on his face, he slowly said, "Don't worry so much. This is the rule of the Immortal Ladder, and it's also to avoid affecting your future cultivation!"
Lin Mu nodded. He already knew this beforehand and was somewhat prepared. "Understood!"
"Alright, go wait over there. I'll let you know when the assessment is over!" the old man said.
"Thank you, senior!" Lin Mu said.
He sat on a chair to the side, closed his eyes, and examined his body.
Apart from having his memories of the Immortal Ladder erased, he was not affected in any other way.
After carefully studying that Blade Technique, he also had many feelings.
The Blade Technique is only a hair's breadth away from breaking through to the Gold Grade.
The Examiners waiting outside watched Lin Mu, and they were all somewhat moved.
Several Examiners couldn't help but gasp in surprise.
It was a success!
Lin Mu really succeeded!
He only spent a few hours meditating on the Walking Corpses's memories and acquired a Martial Skill.
If they hadn't never seen Lin Mu use it before, they would have suspected that Lin Mu had practiced the corresponding Martial Skill before.
"How did he do that? He refined his insights in such a short time!"
"It must be his talent. The Blood Tiger Three Slashes is Martial Skill that only border guards are qualified to learn. Given his background, it's impossible for him to have access to it beforehand. It can only mean that his talent in Blade Technique is astonishing!"
"Incredible! After watching Martial Arts Exam for so many years, this is the first time I've ever seen such a genius!"
"Every era has its geniuses, who are destined to be different. However, only a minority can truly rise to prominence!"
"That's right. Being a genius only means you have a high starting point, not a high finish line. Some Seventh Tier Martial Artist only have average talent. Opportunities and luck are also very important!"
"..."
Du Zian and Lei Yong agreed with their ideas, but they also admired Lin Mu's performance.
Such a person is bound to achieve great things in the future, but the extent of his achievements depends on Lin Mu's abilities.
Time passed slowly, and two days quickly went by.
The more than one hundred people who climbed the Immortal Ladder all received their results.
The Immortal Ladder slowly closed, returning to its previous state.
Lin Mu and the others were teleported to a huge square.
At this moment, many Examiners also came out.
An elderly man at the head of the group held a scroll in his hand and spoke slowly.
"Announce the scores and list of candidates for this Martial Arts Exam!"
"Lin Mu came in first place with a total score of 763 points."
As he finished speaking...
A commotion erupted in the audience.
763 points!
It's worth noting that the full score for this Martial Arts Exam was only 750 points.
This means that Lin Mu not only got a perfect score, but also received bonus points.
"Did I hear that right? 763 points! What kind of incredible person could achieve that?"
"Damn, I estimated I only got around 500 points, but he got more than 200 points more than me!"
"Comparisons are odious! Who is this Lin Mu?!"
"..."
Many people were talking amongst themselves, their eyes scanning the surroundings, trying to find Lin Mu.
Cui Boxuan's lips curled into a bitter smile.
763 points!
That was a score he never dared to even dream of.
The gap between him and Lin Mu was surprisingly large.
"763! That's enough to rank in the top ten in previous years' Martial Arts Exams. This guy is really something!" Lu Zhipeng couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement, and his eyes showed a hint of jealousy as he looked at Lin Mu.
The old man on the stage waited for a while before continuing.
"Second place: Cui Boxuan, total score: 647 points!"
His words caused quite a stir.
After all, even someone as strong as Cui Boxuan could only get 647 points.
Lin Mu, who was ranked first, suddenly stood out even more.
"Wow! This is like completely dominating Cui Boxuan!"
"I wonder how Lin Mu will perform after entering the martial arts school. With his grades, he should attract a lot of attention!"
"The bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish! If he has enough skill, he will surely stand out from the crowd. But if he doesn't have that much skill, I'm afraid that entering a martial arts school will actually have a negative impact on him!"
"Indeed, Sacred Origin Martial School is full of strong people. Fourth Order and Fifth Order experts are nothing special there. A Martial Arts Exam score doesn't mean anything!"
"..."
Many people were discussing it.
Lin Mu stood in the crowd, his expression extremely calm.
His ears were filled with the words of those people.
He strongly agrees with this.
The bigger the waves, the more expensive the fish.
Those who lack ability will perish in the storm.
Only the strong enough can catch fish in the storm.
He was also well aware that his score of 763 was due to bonus points from medals and his performance in the second round, which could also have contributed to his score.
After all, the total score for the Martial Arts Exam needs to include the humanities subjects, and he couldn't possibly get a perfect score in the humanities.
According to his estimate, he would lose about seven or eight points.
Moreover, during the Tree House test, his aptitude and Blood Qi Value were not the highest, so he should have had some points deducted.
In conclusion, he achieved high scores in all three challenges.
He also exceeded his target deadline.
"The Martial Arts Exam is just the beginning. Even if I get into Sacred Origin Martial School, it will only be a stepping stone. How high I can reach in the end depends entirely on myself!" Lin Mu thought to himself.
The elderly man on the stage continued to report on the results.
Before long, the scores of the top 100 were reported.
Those who didn't make it into the top 100 need to check their scores themselves.
It's worth mentioning that Bai Mo scored 550, ranking 64th, which is extremely good for her cultivation level.
Tan Ci 510, ranked 93rd.
As for Qian Mu, he didn't even make it into the top 100, and Lin Mu and the others didn't know his score.
