Live Broadcast Across the Entire Network

After listening to the teacher's words.

Chen Ye was stunned.

He hadn't expected that this body would have such an awesome dad?

No wonder the teacher looked at him like that just now.

So they had high hopes for him?

"Chen Ye, tell me honestly, was choosing an A-class Hero as your compatibility target your own idea, or your father's?" the teacher asked.

If Chen Ye's actions were instructed by his father, then this teacher definitely wouldn't dare to meddle.

"This... this is my own idea."

Chen Ye chose to tell the truth.

Upon hearing this, the teacher immediately said, "This is outrageous! I believe your father would definitely not agree to you choosing an A-class Hero as your compatibility target!"

"Listen to my advice, the talent of that S3 Hero is your best choice, understand?"

Chen Ye still didn't quite understand the situation. Following the principle of saying less to make fewer mistakes, he perfunctorily replied, "Teacher, I understand."

The teacher immediately showed a gratified smile. "I believe in you. As the son of a combat hero, you will definitely succeed in compatibility!"

After saying this, the teacher saw several school leaders emerge and quickly went to greet them.

Chen Ye also walked towards the sports field to rejoin the other students.

On the sports field, a platform had been temporarily erected, and many TV station staff were setting up cameras to prepare for the live broadcast.

Seeing this, the students immediately started discussing.

"Holy crap, they're actually going to broadcast this live nationwide?"

"What's wrong with a live broadcast? If it becomes popular, we'll be famous nationwide!"

"Popular my ass! My compatibility target was originally a B-class Hero, and now with a nationwide live broadcast, how can I still have the nerve to choose a B-class Hero?"

"Don't overthink it. Is temporary face more important, or your future prospects? This is the only chance to change your destiny. I'm going to choose a B-class Hero anyway."

"They never broadcast it in previous years. Why is it that this year, when it's our turn, we have to be broadcast live?"

"You guys, when the broadcast starts later, if someone is stubborn and chooses to be compatible with a C-class Hero, won't they become a national laughingstock?"

"Holy crap, you really dare to think that! If someone actually dares to do that, they'll become a national laughingstock, right? It'll also tarnish our school's reputation. I'll definitely get my legs broken when I go home!"

Hearing these discussions.

Chen Ye's mouth twitched.

He could already imagine what kind of situation he would face when he chose to be compatible with a C-class Hero...

Even so, Chen Ye had no intention of changing his mind.

It was just that the Bald Demon King's physique was too tempting.

Not only was his strength invincible, but his defense, speed, and other attributes were also invincible. He was practically a six-sided warrior with no weaknesses.

For the Bald Demon King's physique, he was willing to be a national laughingstock.

Anyway, in three years, when he became truly invincible, he would let the world know who the truly foolish and laughable person was!

At this moment.

The live broadcast equipment was set up.

Several official personnel with capable demeanors carried a large box onto the stage.

The box was opened, revealing a black jade stone emitting an eerie glow.

Seeing this, the students immediately started discussing in hushed tones:

"Is that the Hero Meteorite?"

"That's right. It's said to have fallen from outer space decades ago. Because it can be compatible with Heroes and allow humans to gain talent abilities, it was named the Hero Meteorite."

"What a magical thing. I wonder where in the universe it came from."

"How many Hero Meteorites are there specifically? Is the quantity enough to go around?"

"I only know that when they fell from the sky, there were only thirteen large ones, which were divided among thirteen countries. Later, it was discovered that the large ones could also be divided into smaller pieces without losing their function. So, how many pieces there are now, I'm afraid only the big figures know."

"Those are very precious."

"Yeah! There are still many small countries that don't have Hero Meteorites. They have to spend money to borrow them from big countries every year."

Hearing these discussions, Chen Ye finally understood the origin and evolution of the Hero Meteorite.

Looking at the black jade stone on the stage, Chen Ye was very surprised.

He strongly suspected that this thing was likely made by a terrestrial deity...

Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain how the hero talent abilities from an anime could appear in the real world and be obtained by humans.

It was precisely 9 AM.

The Hero Talent Aptitude Ceremony officially began.

The principal went on stage and delivered a long, rambling, cliché-filled speech that left the students drowsy.

Meanwhile.

The live broadcast had already started.

Netizens from all over the country, upon hearing the news, flocked to the official live stream.

"Good morning, fellow perverts!"

"First! I'm first!"

"No one's stealing my first place spot."

"Lost and found: My son is missing. He tends to yell 'first.' If anyone sees him, tell him to come find his dad."

"Marriage proposal! I'm a slightly chubby fairy, 150cm tall, weighing 80kg. Looking for a handsome young man, at least 1.8m tall, who has successfully bonded with an A-class Hero talent, to form a perfect family."

"Tank above, this is a live stream, not your wish-granting platform, understand?"

"Any young men interested in a private chat? You can add me on WeChat 138XXX..."

"Strange, why are they live-streaming the Hero Talent Aptitude Ceremony this year? They never did before!"

"It is a bit strange. Last year they said that to protect student privacy, aptitude results shouldn't be made public!"

"Perhaps the higher-ups are planning something big?"

At 9:20 AM.

The principal finally finished his nonsense and stepped down amidst polite, perfunctory applause.

The testing finally began in earnest.

The Dean of Students followed closely, holding a list, and began calling out names.

"We'll start with Class ①... Zhou Wei."

A tall, burly young man, upon hearing his name, walked up with anticipation etched on his face.

Under the guidance of the staff, Zhou Wei first sat down on a chair.

This chair was actually an Energy Monitor. If Zhou Wei successfully bonded, it would detect energy fluctuations, and the indicator light would glow.

White light indicated a C-class Hero, blue light a B-class Hero, yellow light an A-class Hero, and red light an S-class Hero.

Next, Zhou Wei placed his palm on the Hero Meteorite beside him.

The moment his palm touched the Hero Meteorite.

This young man named Zhou Wei immediately tilted his head, seemingly falling into a deep sleep.

About 30 seconds later.

Zhou Wei regained consciousness and opened his eyes.

His eyes were filled with disappointment.

The indicator light on the chair had remained completely unresponsive throughout the process...

Clearly.

He had failed to bond with a Hero.

"Zhou Wei, failed to bond!"

When the tester uttered these words mercilessly, the tall and sturdy Zhou Wei's eyes instantly turned red.

Being watched by so many classmates, with the live broadcast camera also focused on him, made him feel utterly humiliated, and he scurried off stage in embarrassment.

Witnessing this scene.

The other students didn't dare to mock him; instead, they grew nervous.

After all, bonding with a Hero, as long as it wasn't a C-class Hero, depended entirely on luck.

Whether one could successfully bond was not something they could control.

Zhou Wei had failed.

It would soon be their turn.

In the live stream chat.

The situation was the complete opposite...

"Haha, just as I expected, this kid failed."

"He was bound to fail! Bonding with a Hero isn't that easy, is it?"

"Indeed, the success rate of bonding with Heroes, other than C-class Heroes, is abysmal. And C-class Heroes are useless, so troublesome."

"The success rate for B-class Heroes is still okay. Except for that beauty, B1, the rest have a success rate close to fifty percent. I bet this kid aimed too high, choosing an A-class or even an S-class Hero!"

"Still thinking of bonding with an S-class Hero? Heh, those who successfully bond with S-class Heroes are the truly blessed ones! Look at yourself first."

"He's already miserable from failing to bond, and you guys are still gloating. Isn't that a bit much?"
