Thirty Percent Chance (Seeking Monthly Votes)

"Sanlu? What Sanlu?"

Lin Xuan frowned upon hearing this.

"Nothing," Jiang Ye said with a slight shake of his head. "Just some unknown milk powder brand."

Lin Xuan gave him a look of bewilderment.

Li Zhichao, standing beside them, snorted coldly, "The Key Class and all that, I can get in if I want. I just prefer staying in the regular class right now."

"Then you're really living the life," Lin Xuan chuckled. "I heard this trial offers a chance to obtain an advanced Art Technique, but there are only three spots."

"You gotta work hard, Chaozi. You're already in your second year, don't lose to us first-years."

With that, Lin Xuan didn't linger in front of the two and turned to leave.

As a second-generation rich kid from Tianlong Residential Area and a top student at Ancheng First Middle School, he had always disdained associating with students from the regular class.

Even a second longer would be a huge insult to his status and talent.

"Chaozi is really embarrassing Tianlong Residential Area. He's almost in his third year and still hanging out with the riff-raff from the regular class," Lin Xuan sneered inwardly.

In his eyes, students from the Key Class and the regular class were practically different species.

"Yeah, Chaozi himself has a lower-tier talent, no different from those in the regular class."

"I'll have to keep my distance from him from now on. We're destined to go down different paths."

Lin Xuan shook his head and walked away.

In place.

Li Zhichao snorted, "This guy..."

The other party had clearly come to show off his superiority, yet he found himself unable to refute.

After all, he was only the top student in the regular class at Ancheng Third Middle School.

Lin Xuan, on the other hand, was among the top ten in his grade at Ancheng First Middle School's Key Class!

Such a gap, even with him being a year older, was difficult to bridge.

"When I get back, I'm going to challenge the 'Five Needles a Week' technique!" Li Zhichao clenched his fists secretly.

Jiang Ye, beside him, didn't have as many thoughts. While Lin Xuan was leaving, he opened his status panel to look at the other person.

[Constitution: Mortal Body (Grade A, Middle)]
[Talent: Newborn]

"Grade A middle-tier constitution, is this what Ancheng First Middle School's top students are like? It's like a dimensional crush on our school," Jiang Ye marveled inwardly.

Most of the students in the hall had Grade B Mortal Bodies, with a few reaching Grade A, lower-tier.

Compared to them, Lin Xuan was like a crane among chickens.

At this moment, the hall was gradually filling up.

However, the trial had not officially begun.

"This trial is also conducted in the Virtual Starry Sky?" Jiang Ye looked ahead, puzzled. "I wonder what the specific trial is? It can't still be hunting Shadow Clan, can it?"

He had asked Chen Zilu about this.

Unfortunately, the trial content was strictly confidential, and no one knew until the trial officially began.

"For the school, the trial is even more important than the final exams, as it can filter out truly outstanding students."

"Therefore, the rewards for passing the trial are exceptionally generous," Jiang Ye mused. "This time, besides generous cash rewards, the most important thing is that advanced Art Technique."

Art Technique.

Skillful combat methods.

It could greatly enhance combat power!

While the Star Martial Cultivation Method could also improve strength, it was a basic cultivation method, mainly for strengthening the body, with less impact on combat power.

Art Techniques, however, possessed significant killing power.

Students like Zhao Qingli and Lin Miaomiao, who were among the top students in their grade.

The reason they achieved high scores was also because they had cultivated Art Techniques.

"There are only three spots this time."

"That means I have to get into the top three to obtain that advanced Art Technique."

Jiang Ye looked around.

Besides Lin Xuan, whom we already needed to pay special attention to, there were also a few students from the Key Class in the second year who were participating in this trial.

Those individuals were likely the bottom-ranked students in the Key Class, their Art Techniques not yet perfected.

Even so, they weren't far from achieving perfection.

These people were all strong competitors.

Just then, Jiang Ye suddenly froze slightly.

"Wang Ziang? Why is he here?" he asked, looking not far away, his eye twitching.

The third-ranked student in the grade was also here for this trial? Was he crazy!

At this moment, Wang Ziang was standing on a platform.

Unlike what Jiang Ye had guessed, he wasn't here to participate in the trial.

He was there to maintain order at the scene.

"This is so annoying. The director really has nothing better to do, making me come out here to maintain order on such a hot day."

Wang Ziang grumbled dejectedly, "Do I, the dignified third-ranked student, have no pride?"

As he spoke, he suddenly sensed a hostile gaze.

Following the gaze, Wang Ziang quickly shut his mouth.

On a higher viewing platform, a figure had appeared at some point.

It was the grade director, Zhang Jianwu!

Zhang Jianwu was currently standing with his arms crossed, looking down at him with a cold expression.

Wang Ziang pretended not to see him, thinking to himself, The director is hard of hearing, he probably didn't hear what I said. Yes, that's right.

He casually scanned the hall, dutifully acting as security.

Just then, his expression suddenly changed.

"Is that the two from Class Nine?"

Wang Ziang looked in the direction of Li Zhichao and Jiang Ye, his expression shifting slightly. "Interesting, these two are actually participating in the trial?"

"Perfect, let me see how they perform."

Wang Ziang rubbed his chin.

Although he firmly believed that the 'hidden dragon' Zhang Jianwu mentioned that day referred to him, he still wanted to see if the two from Class Nine truly had anything special about them.

On the higher viewing platform.

Not only Zhang Jianwu, but several other teachers were also standing there.

Zhang Jianwu glanced in Wang Ziang's direction and snorted inwardly. "This kid is getting bolder and bolder, daring to curse even me. His scholarship for this semester will be postponed until next year!"

The top ten students in the grade received generous scholarships.

However, Zhang Jianwu decided to teach Wang Ziang a lesson about respecting his elders.

"Director Zhang."

At this moment, a clear voice rang out.

Immediately after, a stunning young woman in a white dress, with a prominent bust, walked over.

"Miss Chen."

Upon seeing her, Zhang Jianwu's stern face finally broke into a smile.

Chen Zilu heard the title and said helplessly, "Director, you can just call me Xiao Chen."

"Then I will boldly call you Xiao Chen," Zhang Jianwu chuckled.

He knew Chen Zilu's background was far beyond what a small place like Ancheng could imagine.

Therefore, even though she wasn't yet 20 years old, he didn't dare to show the slightest disrespect.

The other teachers present, although unaware of the details, also looked at Chen Zilu with respect.

Someone the director treated so cautiously was someone they couldn't afford to offend.

Chen Zilu was accustomed to their attitude and didn't say any more.

She looked at Zhang Jianwu and asked, "Director Zhang, who do you think will win that advanced Art Technique in this trial?"

Hearing this, Zhang Jianwu's gaze swept across the hall.

"Several students from the Key Class in the second year are also participating in this trial,"

Zhang Jianwu said slowly. "Although they are ranked lower in the Key Class, among this group, they are certainly top-tier."

"For example, Zeng Xueqing and Xu Lei are popular candidates for the top three."

If any other teacher had asked this question, he would have stopped there.

However, at this moment, Zhang Jianwu looked again in Jiang Ye's direction.

He knew Jiang Ye was a student Chen Zilu was paying close attention to.

"As for the two from Class Nine."

Zhang Jianwu hesitated for a moment before saying, "I think their probability of entering the top three is only twenty percent. Hmm, Jiang Ye might be a bit higher, perhaps thirty percent."
