Ye Chen let out a soft sigh. After gathering his thoughts, he continued, "This time, I'm here on behalf of the academy to assess everyone. Since the academy has granted me this authority, I must live up to its trust."
"I won't beat around the bush. I can tell you plainly that the main purpose of today's assessment is to select Reserve Team Members for the next Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Dueling Tournament, two years from now."
Ye Chen truly did not speak without making a splash. The moment he opened his mouth, he straightforwardly revealed the primary purpose of this visit to everyone.
Naturally, there was a reason for doing so. Ye Chen had developed a keen grasp of human nature. While dispelling everyone's doubts, he would also subtly stir up the enthusiasm of all the students.
After all, if it were merely a class assignment, many people might not display their full strength. Just like Ye Yu—even if she took part in the assessment, she would likely hold something back.
So rather than letting the students speculate endlessly, being unusually direct might produce an unexpected result.
"Of course, the academy has its own considerations. The purpose of doing this is to ensure that no capable person is left with regrets. So everyone has a chance. As long as you pass my assessment, you can become a member of the reserve team. However, there are only two spots." Ye Chen spoke casually.
"This is also a two-pronged preparation. So please believe that at Shrek Academy, anyone with ability will never be buried."
He maintained a friendly smile throughout. Although the overwhelming discussion around him made him slightly uncomfortable, at this moment, he did not represent himself, but the academy's position.
Du Weilun clearly understood this as well.
