The Summoning of the Clown Position

Just then, Dai Xingzhi heard Ye Lingxiao beside him say, "In the last Dao Heart Test, your valuation was actually unknown?"

Dai Xingzhi was slightly taken aback, then looked in the direction the other person was speaking and found Zhang Yu behind him... The number on the other person's body was indeed 55.

Upon hearing Ye Lingxiao's question, Zhang Yu remained silent for a moment, unsure of what to say.

Dai Xingzhi to the side, said, "Unknown valuation? Did you never give up until the very end, or even push the Illusion Realm to its limit... so you gave it an unknown valuation?"

Zhang Yu said helplessly, "Hmm... more or less."

Upon hearing these words, Ye Lingxiao's gaze sharpened, and a hint of seriousness appeared in his eyes as he looked at Zhang Yu.

Ye Lingxiao thought to himself, "This person actually managed to burst the Illusion Realm?"

"How strong is his will? Just how rich is he? Is he richer than Yun Jing, or even me?"

Meanwhile, Dai Xingzhi's mind was racing. "What's his background? Is he the descendant of a company director? Or the heir of some powerful local family?"

At the same time, more and more people noticed the number 55 on Zhang Yu's body and realized that this student from out of town was the first place winner in the last Dao Heart Test.

At the same time, due to the special nature of this Dao Heart Test, they realized that the first place winner must be extremely wealthy and possess astonishing riches.

As wealth is the most direct manifestation of Immortal Dao Potential immortality, No. 55, with his considerable wealth, must also be powerful and definitely a strong contender for the Foundation Establishment Certificate.

Ye Lingxiao glanced at Zhang Yu, thinking to himself, "Judging from the way he picked up the Red Envelope Talisman and what he said, I originally thought he was a poor man."

"Who knew they were hiding their true strength... Could it be that they're rich enough to dare pick up red envelopes from the ground?"

"He seems quite concerned about what poor people should do if they find Red Envelope Talisman... Is he one of those naive, rich people?"

As he pondered, Ye Lingxiao turned around, his gaze towards Zhang Yu growing increasingly serious. "I look forward to competing with you in the future."

At this moment, Zhang Yu, with his mysterious identity and unfathomable wealth, was already one of Ye Lingxiao's main future rivals.

Dai Xingzhi and the other students, standing to the side, looked at the two standing opposite each other as if they were watching two giant beasts, each spitting out billions of dollars, collide violently.

Witnessing this scene, Bai Zhenzhen looked at Zhang Yu with a hidden worry. "Yu Zi! You're putting on such a big act now, but once the official competition starts and you're exposed, you'll become the kind of clown Old Zhao was talking about!"

Bai Zhenzhen was confident that she and Zhang Yu had made great progress in the past two months and had definitely reached the level of senior high school students.

But she also knew that even with all that progress, she and Zhang Yu were still far behind those Top Immortal Capital Master.

Facing the first round of exams, Bai Zhenzhen only hoped to pass.

As for catching up with or even surpassing the Top Immortal Capital Master, that should be the goal in the second and third rounds of exams in the coming months.

Zhang Yu was well aware of these things, but when his number was listed as the number one in the Dao Heart Test, he realized he couldn't explain it anymore.

He couldn't very well say that he survived until the end in the Illusion Realm because of the influence of the Ritual.

I can't even admit that I'm actually broke and still struggling to pay off next month's loan interest.

Faced with Ye Lingxiao's piercing gaze and feeling the curious, inquisitive, or hostile stares from the contestants, Zhang Yu felt as if he were being watched by a group of people, but he could only endure it.

"Damn it, shouldn't I be the one who, despite the contempt and even disregard of the Immortal Capital Master, gradually catch up with them and finally obtain the Foundation Establishment Certificate? Why are they all targeting me from the very beginning?"

"I told you we shouldn't have rankings! Why expose players' privacy like this!"

Thinking about how he would soon be competing head-on with these people, Zhang Yu felt as if the Clown Position"that Zhao Tianxing had mentioned was beckoning him.

"Is there any way to avoid making me too embarrassed later?"

"Oh well, there's nothing I can do about losing face. It's just that I'm not strong enough right now."

Yu Xinghan, who had just arrived not far away, witnessed this scene that surprised him.

"That kid Zhang Yu ..." Yu Xinghan looked at Zhang Yu, his heart filled with both curiosity and surprise. "How exactly did he do that?"

The thought that the other person, as a poor man, could survive in that Illusion Realm until the unknown value was revealed was something he couldn't understand no matter how hard he thought about it.

He even had an urge to ask Zhang Yu about it, but he also knew that the other party could not possibly answer him about this secret.

A moment later, as all the contestants arrived, Deng Bingding, as the chief examiner, began to announce the examination procedures.

In short, the goal is to understand the spirit of the Foundation Establishment Exam reform. This time, in addition to assessing the students' Dao Heart, the examination will also test their magical power, physical fitness, and Martial Arts.

As for why Dao Heart is not tested, it is said that all those who failed the previous round of Dao Heart Test were eliminated, so there is no need to test it again.

Of course, Huang Zichou, the little god standing to the side, knew that this was done by the higher-ups to save on the budget.

After all, compared to the other three gates, the Dao Heart Examination involves the Spirit Realm environment, and it costs the most money and consumes the most resources.

Finally Deng Bingding said, "... Only the top twenty scorers will remain in this round of exams; all those ranked below twenty will be eliminated. To encourage the students, each of the top twenty will be awarded an Expert-level Cultivation Method..."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yu's eyes lit up slightly. "One Expert-level Cultivation Method for each person? That's so generous!"

Zhang Yu still remembered that the bonus Deng Bingding had given him last time was an interest-free loan.

But then he thought to himself, "Behind the Eight Divine Departments are the Heavenly Court and the Ten Great Sects."

"For us, Expert-level Cultivation Method would cost tens or even hundreds of thousands of yuan."

"But for them, it might just be a matter of permission." "After all, all they need to do is approve our usage rights and send us the Cultivation Method details..."

The Magical Power Exam would soon begin.

All the students lined up in the hall according to their numbers.

Then the examiners distributed a set of testing equipment and a box of Spirit Root to everyone present.

Dai Xingzhi thought to himself, "This Magical Power Exam assesses the control, burst, and recovery of magic power."

He picked up a probe patch and thought, "I need to channel as much mana into it as possible within 30 minutes."

"The faster and more mana you output within 30 minutes, the higher your score will be."

"This requires explosive power, precise control of mana, and the ability to simultaneously generate and replenish Breathing Spiritual Opportunity through spiritual energy."

Dai Xingzhi knew that this ability to unleash magical power over a long period of time was a Immortal Dao course that should be taught in the senior year of high school, according to the high school curriculum.

However, since it is Foundation Establishment Exam for high school students, it will naturally not be confined to the mere curriculum guidelines.

The latest novels are first published on 69shuba!

Dai Xingzhi then opened the small box containing the External Spirit Root.

One of the rings was emitting wisps of Spiritual Energy, Breath Circulation as if it were a living thing.

Dai Xingzhi thought to himself, " With External Spirit Root, the Qi Sea Without End."

"External Spirit Root for mid-range brands?"

Dai Xingzhi recalled what the examiner had just said and realized that using a unified Spirit Root like this was one of the reforms in this Foundation Establishment Exam.

Dai Xingzhi disagreed, arguing that wealth was one of the Immortal Dao Potential, and that it was only natural for the wealthy to have more advantages, so why use the concept of unifying Spirit Root?

Just then, Deng Bingding reminded everyone, "Before carrying External Spirit Root, remember to shut down the Spirit Root within your own bodies, or you will bear the consequences."

Just as Dai Xingzhi was about to put on the External Spirit Root Qi Sea Without End, he suddenly heard a male voice.

"How do I use this External Spirit Root?"

Dai Xingzhi turned his head and found that the one who spoke was actually Number 55.

"They've actually given out Spirit Root to everyone?" Zhang Yu thought to himself, "But they didn't even provide an instruction manual for these External Spirit Root, how are we supposed to know how to use them?"

"Besides, if I ask that question, those 'Immortal Capital Master' around me will probably all guess that I'm not actually that rich, right?"

"This is also a way for me to lay the groundwork for myself..."

Hearing this, Bai Zhenzhen thought to herself, "Well done, Yu Zi. If you ask it like that, I won't need to ask anymore."

"At the same time, I'll start building a facade for myself, gradually revealing the fact that I'm not actually that rich. That way, even if my grades aren't as good as everyone imagines, I'll save face a bit."

Upon hearing this, Dai Xingzhi thought to himself, "They haven't even used the Qi Sea Without End?"

Thinking of the unknown valuation of the person who ranked first in the Dao Heart Test, Dai Xingzhi wondered, "Is it because the Qi Sea Without End too low-level for him?"

"Damn it! This is Spirit Root that I would normally use for cultivation, but this guy doesn't even bother to use it? What kind of Spirit Root does he usually use?"

Dai Xingzhi thought to himself, "Damn rich people! At least this time the exam uses a unified Spirit Root!"

On the other side, Yun Jing Strongest High School Student, glanced at Zhang Yu and thought to himself, "Is this guy from out of town... showing off his wealth? He actually said he's never used the Qi Sea Without End?"

Yun Jing snorted inwardly and said, "I don't usually use this kind of Spirit Root. Could you please teach me, examiner?"

"So even rich people don't use this kind of Spirit Root much?" Zhang Yu thought to himself. "Tsk, troublesome... I feel like there are even more eyes watching me now."

Following the examiners' instructions, Zhang Yu infused his magic power into the ring, enlarged it, and slipped it onto his hand. He then felt the External Spirit Root vibrate with his Breath Circulation, as if it had become part of his body, and the surrounding Spiritual Energy immediately surged in.

Next, put on the testing equipment and grip the probe firmly.

As the countdown reached 3, 2, 1, all the players present simultaneously channeled their mana into the detection patch.

Boom!

A loud bang seemed to echo in the air as everyone channeled their magical power.

At the same time, the mana output data representing each individual lit up on the Light Screen in front of the hall.

It was a bar chart, with a player's number at the bottom of each bar and a mana number at the top.

At this moment, as everyone frantically outputs their mana, each pillar is constantly growing and being sorted according to the amount of mana output.

However, because two pillars grew so rapidly, they not only squeezed into first and second place, but their exaggerated growth also made it seem as if the pillars of the other contestants were shrinking.

The two pillars represent contestants number 11, Yun Jing, and number 23, Ye Lingxiao.

They saw the two men's magical power levels skyrocket, and the two pillars, like two Giant Dragon, entangled back and forth in the first and second positions, chasing each other.

At the same time, Dai Xingzhi looked at pillar number 55: "Hmm? Why is it so far back?"
