Su Mu Qing

Su Mu Qing watched Jiang Fan's receding back, lost in thought.

Seeing this, the others also stopped.

Senior Brother Hao Yu followed Su Mu Qing's gaze and saw her looking at a man in ordinary clothes.

"Do you know him?"

Su Mu Qing's brow furrowed, and she didn't answer his question.

Senior Brother Hao Yu was instantly filled with jealousy.

"Heh! He looks like someone from the Outer City!"

"Is he trying to participate in the Martial Artist certification?"

"He's really dreaming!"

The birth of every Martial Artist required immense financial support. Regardless of the person's talent, just considering the financial aspect, he didn't believe someone from the Outer City could afford it.

Seeing Senior Brother Hao Yu speak, the other students immediately started flattering him.

"Exactly, someone from the Outer City, how could they afford gene serum?"

"Heh, the Outer City is full of discarded genes, and their talent is even more inferior. It's a blessing if they can awaken just one!"

"Looking at him, he also seems like a student. Could he be from our First High School?"

"Don't joke. First High School? Have you ever seen someone like him? He's probably from a no-name school like Third High School or Fourth High School!"

"They can barely afford to eat, so it's already great that they can attend school. How could they afford the tuition for First High School?"

"..."

These people were mostly sycophants.

Wu Hao Yu was a prominent figure in their First High School. His family ran a large real estate business.

Moreover, he was generous with his money, and those who flattered him immediately received substantial benefits.

Therefore, for this group who had benefited from him before, this routine was naturally second nature.

In contrast, although Su Mu Qing's talent was amazing, she came from an ordinary family in the Inner City at best.

Her parents were ordinary civil servants in the government, without any influence.

They were polite to Su Mu Qing mainly because Wu Hao Yu had a crush on her.

So they naturally knew where their priorities lay.

Now that the two of them had a difference of opinion, they naturally sided with Wu Hao Yu's opinion and proceeded to verbally attack Jiang Fan.

Unlike before, Wu Hao Yu didn't pretend to be polite and stop them this time.

Instead, he crossed his arms, listening with relish to everyone's mockery while observing Su Mu Qing's reaction.

Su Mu Qing had been wondering why Jiang Fan was here. Hearing everyone's harsh remarks, her expression immediately turned grim.

"Don't speak so nastily!"

"He's not from the Outer City!"

Hearing this, Wu Hao Yu's eyes narrowed, and his jealousy intensified.

"Even if he's not from the Outer City, not just anyone can take the Martial Artist test!"

"With so many of us here, aren't it only the two of us who passed the certification?"

"I'd like to see if he can actually pass the assessment!"

Saying that, he waved his hand and called out to the service staff at the hall's beverage area.

"Get us a cup of coffee each!"

Then, he led the crowd towards the sofa area.

Su Mu Qing felt this person was a bit of an idiot.

The other person hadn't provoked you, so why were you targeting him?

She really wanted to leave immediately!

However, thinking of the arrangements her family had made for her, she reluctantly followed.

It just so happened that she had something to discuss with Jiang Fan, so she might as well resolve it here!

Meanwhile, Jiang Fan followed the front desk girl around a corner and into an inner corridor.

After turning twice, they arrived outside a room, and she cautiously knocked on the door.

"Come in!"

After hearing the voice from inside, the front desk girl turned to Jiang Fan and said.

"Wait for me here for a moment!"

Then, holding a form, she walked in.

Through the gap between the two doors, Jiang Fan saw that the room was huge, nearly two hundred square meters.

In the middle of the room, various instruments were placed, and there was also an area temporarily set up with isolation tape, with soft mats underneath!

Along the walls around the room, there were rows of seats, occupied by many people who looked like students, as well as some older men. They were likely participants in the Martial Artist assessment.

At the very front of the room, there was a row of tables, seemingly for the chief examiners of the Martial Artist assessment.

At this moment, after the receptionist girl entered, she went directly to the examiners and handed over the forms.

A middle-aged man with slightly graying hair took the forms, glanced at them, then placed them under a stack of papers on the table. He then said something to the receptionist girl.

After nodding, the receptionist girl quietly retreated.

She opened the door, walked outside, and pulled Jiang Fan a bit further away, explaining.

"That's it!"

"You're quite lucky today, you're the last one!"

"Team Leader Wang just said that they won't be accepting any more assessment participants for today!"

"You can go in directly in a moment, find a seat against the wall, and then just wait for your name to be called!"

Seeing that her arrangements were proper, Jiang Fan nodded.

"Thank you!"

The receptionist girl's face immediately broke into a smile.

In the past, everyone who came for the assessment was either a prince or a princess, looking down on others.

Even those who came to try their luck were often bad-tempered.

It was rare to find someone like Jiang Fan who was so polite!

Almost instantly, she couldn't help but feel a trace of good impression towards this young man who looked like a student.

After the receptionist girl left, Jiang Fan returned to the doorway of the room.

After knocking and receiving permission to enter, he scanned his surroundings and walked towards a relatively uncrowded seat against the wall.

As he walked, he attracted many sideways glances from people in the room.

"Who is that? He looks like a student, and also like someone from the outer city. Is he here for the assessment too?"

"He must be! If he wasn't here for the assessment, how could he get into this room?"

"No, this kid looks so thin. Is his Qi and Blood sufficient? Can he even pass the assessment? He's just messing around, right?"

"Heh heh, I've heard for a long time that many people come here to try their luck. He's probably one of those types!"

"If that's the case, then he's probably going to have a tough time later. The chief examiner this time is Team Leader Wang, who has a notoriously bad temper. If he knows he's being played like this, won't he explode?"

"I can't say what the outcome will be, but during the third stage, the combat test, he'll likely suffer some physical pain!"

"Heh heh..."

"..."

Jiang Fan ignored their idle gossip and calmly walked to his intended spot to sit down.

"Silence!"

From the front row, the chief examiner, Team Leader Wang, said with a frown.

In an instant, the room became as quiet as water!

After his stern gaze swept across the room, it briefly lingered on Jiang Fan. He then glanced impatiently before returning his focus to the assessment area in the center of the room.

"The assessment continues!"

"Next, Chen Qiangzhuang!"

As soon as his voice fell, a massive, strong man shot up from his seat and nimbly walked to the center of the room.
