What Caused the Explosion?
War God Academy, admissions grounds.
The crowd on the grounds was divided into two groups. These people were all freshmen who had participated in the seven-day practical assessment.
None of them was as full of life and vigor as they had been seven days ago. Most looked thoroughly battered, their faces exhausted and their clothes covered in grime. Some were even dressed in tatters, looking for all the world like refugees!
One group had only a little over three hundred people, while the other had far more—probably over a thousand. Thus, without needing to say more, it was obvious that the smaller group had passed the practical assessment, while the other had failed.
The two groups wore completely different expressions. Naturally, the smaller group was beaming with joy. Though they were in a sorry state, none of that mattered anymore! The people in the other group, however, were filled with dejection and regret. Some with bad tempers even slapped at the filth on their bodies and cursed their rotten luck!
Kerry stood with both hands clasped behind his back, surveying the scene. He nodded with some satisfaction. There really were far more freshmen who had passed this time than in previous years!

Kerry thought in confusion, doubting the Vice Principal's judgment for the first time. Of course, he had no idea that Chen Yun had encountered a Pseudo Dragon Beast at the peak of Emperor Rank, a terrifying existence
