"Hey, you little rascal!"
The middle-aged man addressed as 'Uncle Xue' looked at Xu Qi with fondness, unable to resist praising her. "Xiao Qi, this time you've really brought us a genius warrior!"
"Of course! And he came to me first!"
"Right, Lin Ye?"
Lin Ye: "..."
Shrugging slightly without comment, Lin Ye ignored Xu Qi's tail practically wagging up to the sky.
At the same time, he felt a flicker of surprise...
Xu Qi now was a completely different person from the Secretary Xu he'd met before.
That earlier Secretary Xu had been a mature, cool, and aloof older woman.
But the one before him now was clearly a naive, lively little girl.
It was a bit strange, really...
"Next, we'll test your Psychic Power, and finally your Neural Reaction Speed."
The Silver-haired Man looked at Lin Ye. "Ready?"
"Yeah, I'm always ready." Lin Ye nodded.
But just as Lin Ye looked up, their eyes met for an instant.
Buzz—
For a moment, the Silver-haired Man felt as if he were staring into an endless sea of moonlight, almost tempted to sink into it and never wake.
Then, with a jolt, he snapped back to his senses.
"Hiss—such terrifying Psychic Power!" the Silver-haired Man was shaken to his core.
Though he wasn't a Psychic Master, he was a battle-hardened High-tier War General.
His mental strength was considerable.
Yet.
When Xue Zhan faced Lin Ye's Psychic Power, he felt a vast chasm like a firefly competing with the bright moon.
If Lin Ye had taken advantage of his daze to strike suddenly, he'd likely be gravely wounded, if not dead.
"Hall Master Xue, my apologies."
Seeming to notice the Silver-haired Man's discomfort, Lin Ye gave an awkward smile. "I only awakened my Psychic Power recently, and I'm not very skilled at controlling it yet."
"Very good. Mastering Psychic Power isn't just about training willpower daily—it's more about honing it in actual combat.
Work hard, and maybe our Shan City can produce the Great Xia's number one Psychic Master..."
Hall Master Xue Zhan smiled approvingly, his gaze growing fonder as he looked at Lin Ye.
He liked strong, talented, handsome young men.
"Come on, let's test your Psychic Power."
"Alright!"
Similarly, Lin Ye operated the Alloy Fist Glove for three tests of punching force and speed, with the following results—
Force: 66300kg, 66534kg, 66618 kg Speed: 369m/s, 362 m/s, 365m/s
The middle-aged Hall Master Xue Zhan and Xu Qi exchanged glances, both seeing the shock in each other's eyes.
Even though they'd mentally prepared themselves, facing such results still left them stunned.
Their gazes fell on Lin Ye as if they were looking at a monster.
Xu Qi, in particular, was utterly astounded.
She'd personally witnessed Lin Ye's Psychic Power test just yesterday afternoon.
In just one night, this man's Psychic Power had grown this much more?
Xu Qi's heart raced, her curiosity about Lin Ye deepening.
"Not bad, not bad. Your Psychic Master strength has reached the level of a Primary War God."
"When you have time, check out the Warrior Forum's featured posts on Psychic Power manipulation—it'll help you improve faster," Xue Zhan suggested.
"Featured posts?" Lin Ye looked at Xu Qi in confusion.
"Well... Uncle Xue, Lin Ye's forum access is still at High-level Warrior. He doesn't have the clearance to view those featured posts," Xu Qi explained hastily.
"That's ridiculous! With Lin Ye's strength, how can he only have High-level Warrior access? Send the test results to the Warrior Forum staff immediately, and tell them to grant him High-tier War General clearance—say it's on my authority, Xue Zhan!"
Hearing Xu Qi's explanation, Xue Zhan grew a bit angry.
As a High-tier War General, he spent his free time on the Warrior Forum, seeking out and exchanging useful combat techniques, movement methods, and the habits and weaknesses of various monsters.
Through learning and exchanging on the Warrior Forum, his combat power had improved rapidly.
So Xue Zhan knew full well just how important the Warrior Forum was to a warrior.
"Alright, I'll make the call right now."
Then, as Xue Zhan instructed, Xu Qi immediately contacted the Warrior Forum service team.
After sending over several pieces of Lin Ye's test data, she urged them to complete the permission upgrade.
The service staff agreed to finish it as soon as possible.
About ten minutes later, Xu Qi received a call from the Warrior Forum service team, informing her that Lin Ye's forum permissions had been upgraded.
Immediately after.
Lin Ye's phone received a message from the Warrior Forum—
"Dear Mr. Lin Ye, your Warrior Forum permissions have been upgraded from 'High-level Warrior' to 'High-tier War General'. Wishing you a pleasant day~"
Putting away his phone, Lin Ye felt a surge of joy.
With higher permissions, he could access more information on the Warrior Forum and further boost his combat power.
Watching Lin Ye break into a smile, Xue Zhan couldn't help but show a hint of relief in his eyes.
Each generation produces its own geniuses, each stronger than the last.
The future of Great Xia still held hope!
Gazing at Lin Ye's young yet resolute face, a blazing light of hope ignited deep in Xue Zhan's eyes.
After watching for a while, Xue Zhan finally spoke softly: "Now that the forum permissions are settled, let's move on to the final test—"
"Neural Reaction Speed!"
Following Xue Zhan and the others, Lin Ye entered a room about a hundred square meters in size.
In the entire Neural Reaction Testing Room, only one large, expensive instrument stood in the center—
The Neural Reaction Tester!
Lin Ye walked familiarly to the target area, stopped, and slowly gathered his momentum.
Facing the testing device, which resembled a six-barreled Gatling gun, he stared unblinkingly at the dozens of black muzzles.
Beneath his feet was a circular testing zone about three meters and six decimeters in diameter.
"Ready? I'll start at Mid-tier War General intensity.
Remember, don't step out of this circle, and focus—try to get hit by as few of those red lights as possible!"
Xue Zhan pressed one hand on the start button while giving Lin Ye his final instructions.
"Don't worry, Master. I'm ready!"
Behind the red mesh curtain, Lin Ye replied with a smile, even a hint of eager anticipation in his voice.
"Alright, then let's begin!" Xue Zhan pressed the start button.
"Beep beep beep!!!"
The massive muzzle of the Neural Reaction Tester spun up, and the dark gun barrels instantly burst forth streaks of red light.
These red lights varied in speed, shooting chaotically toward Lin Ye inside the red circle.
Lin Ye's expression was calm, his eyes as still as water.
He adjusted his stance swiftly according to the incoming red lights, keeping his center of gravity stable as his feet moved, ready to change direction at any moment.
Mid-tier War General—Excellent...
Mid-tier War General—Peak...
High-tier War General—Average...
Lin Ye concentrated, his eyes locked onto the dozens of muzzles, his mind instinctively predicting the trajectories of each red light and reacting before they arrived.
To Xu Qi and the others, he looked like a swift cheetah, dodging left and right, forward and back, evading the rubber bullets...
Time ticked by.
The test intensity had already risen from the initial Mid-tier War General to High-tier War General.
Having crossed an entire major tier, Lin Ye still hadn't been hit by a single rubber bullet. Instead, he was gradually adapting to the rhythm...
