On the assessment stage, Mu Bai stood beside Mu Zhuoyun, with Mu Ning Xue standing right in front of him.
He gazed at Mu Ning Xue, longing for her, but their positions were worlds apart. He could never reach her!
He was nothing more than a relative of the Mu Clan. The only way he could prove his worth was through this magic assessment!
Only then could he earn more resources from the Mu Clan!
And perhaps Mu Ning Xue would take a liking to him...
As long as he took first place in this magic assessment, the Mu Clan would certainly invest resources in training him!
By then, he'd leave the other students of his year far behind!!
Mo Fan watched the students taking the assessment ahead of him, a grin stretching nearly from ear to ear.
"When it's my turn, I'm going to blind them all! Especially that Mu Bai!"
The thought filled him with confidence. He couldn't wait to see the faces of everyone who'd mocked him!
Mo Fan had been born with two elements, and the Jade Pendant had boosted his cultivation speed. Now, he could cast magic with both elements!
There probably wasn't a single student in his year at Tian Lan Magic High School who could match him!
The magic assessments continued, one class after another.
After a long wait, it was finally Class 8's turn!
Standing beside Mu Bai was a middle-aged man dressed in a fine suit.
"Mu Bai, make sure you do well in this magic assessment."
"I will." Mu Bai nodded firmly. The man was his uncle, Mu He.
With that, he headed toward the Star Sensing Stone. The first test was the Star Dust Assessment!
Everyone turned their attention to Mu Bai. After all, he was one of the top students in Class 8!
They all wanted to know what score he would get!
Under the gaze of the crowd, Mu Bai walked up to the platform where the Star Sensing Stone was placed and laid his hand on it!
Before long!
The Star Sensing Stone responded!
Brilliant white ice light immediately spread out from within the stone, shining intensely!
"Whoa!"
"Wow, his ice light is way stronger than mine!"
"Is this what someone from the Mu Clan can do? That's amazing!"
Seeing Mu Bai's result, the crowd couldn't help but exclaim in admiration and envy!
At the same time, the three teachers judging the first round each gave Mu Bai a score!
In no time, three S grades appeared before everyone!
"Three S's!!"
"Has anyone ever gotten three S's in the first round before?"
"Mu Bai really did break the record for the first-round assessment!!"
The crowd erupted into another commotion. Nobody had expected this result!
Mu Bai was very pleased. He glanced at Mu Ning Xue, but her expression was blank, as cold as ever.
He looked away, then turned to Mo Fan with a slight smile.
"Brother Fan, Mu Bai looked like he was provoking you just now!" Zhang Xiao Hou said.
"That's Mu Bai for you. He actually got three S's. Wonder if certain people can manage the same." Zhao Kun San glanced at Mo Fan, too.
Zhang Xiao Hou was about to say something, but Mo Fan grabbed him and shook his head.
"Teacher, I want to take the Magic Release Assessment!" Mu Bai said.
Everyone looked his way again. This time, Mu Bai didn't do as well in the Magic Release Assessment as he had in the Star Dust Assessment. He only got a B!
"Mu Bai's final scores: S in the Star Dust Assessment and B in the Magic Release Assessment!" the teacher announced.
Even so, Mu Bai's scores were the best anyone had gotten so far.
"Next, Mo Fan!"
Under the crowd's gaze, Mo Fan walked up to the Star Sensing Stone.
Song Jie knew exactly what would happen next, so he simply watched the show.
Someone had placed a Dark Stone beneath the Star Sensing Stone, hoping to make Mo Fan fail the assessment!
Fortunately, it was discovered in time. Mo Fan escaped the trap and was given another chance to take the assessment!
Before long!
Mo Fan finished the first test, the Star Dust Assessment. Just like Mu Bai, he got three S's, and his final score was S!
"Mo Fan got three S's, too!!"
"My God, wasn't he admitted through connections? How did he get three S's as well?"
"Zhao Kun San, Brother Fan got three S's, too. Why aren't you barking now?"
The crowd buzzed with conversation. Mo Fan turned around and shot Mu Bai a look.
Mu Bai gritted his teeth in frustration!!
Next, Mo Fan took the Magic Release Assessment, and he got an S there, too!!
"Holy crap, Brother Fan got an S in the release test, too!!" Zhang Xiao Hou was so excited he nearly jumped up!
Mu Bai clenched his teeth so hard they nearly cracked. He hadn't expected things to turn out this way!
By now, everyone thought Mo Fan had already secured first place in the assessment!
After all, he'd gotten an S in both tests. Who could possibly beat that?
Just then, Mu Zhuoyun suddenly made Mo Fan an offer.
"Mu Zhuoyun, did you hit your head or something?" Mo Fan said to Mu Zhuoyun, a school board member at Tian Lan Magic High School.
The whole venue erupted into chaos. Nobody had expected Mo Fan to speak to Mu Zhuoyun, a school board member, like that.
However, Song Jie understood Mo Fan's reaction.
For the past three years, the Mu Clan had constantly pressured Mo Fan's family and said all sorts of humiliating things to them!
That was why!
There was no way Mo Fan would treat Mu Zhuoyun kindly!
The crowd watched as the argument onstage grew more and more heated. It looked like they were about to come to blows!
For a moment, everyone below the stage felt both tense and thrilled, but in the end, no fight broke out.
"All right, all right. Patriarch Mu, please calm down. Since we've already settled things, let's wait until graduation day." The principal of Tian Lan Magic High School said with an ingratiating smile.
Mo Fan was an outstanding student at Tian Lan Magic High School. The principal didn't want anything to happen to him.
At the same time, they'd agreed to have a duel after Mo Fan graduated!
"All right, all right. Let's all calm down. There are still other students who need to take the assessment." The principal of Tian Lan Magic High School said.
The crowd was reluctant to let the excitement go, but the magic assessment continued.
"Next, Song Jie!"
Hearing his name, Song Jie walked onto the stage.
Mo Fan had stood out so much that everyone was convinced he'd already taken first place.
"Go ahead," the Bald Examiner said to Song Jie.
Song Jie nodded, then placed his hand on the Star Sensing Stone.
The next moment!
An incredibly dazzling golden light suddenly reflected off the Star Sensing Stone!!
At once, everyone's attention was drawn to the golden light!
"Is that golden light trying to blind me?!"
"Who's this guy? How can he make it shine so brightly?"
"Can the Light Element really produce golden light like this? Is my Light Element fake?"
The students below weren't the only ones stunned. Even the teachers watching were astonished.
"This..."
The three teachers judging the assessments were dumbfounded, frozen in place for a moment.
They had no idea how to score him.
Song Jie's golden light had already surpassed the range of an S grade. So how were they supposed to score him?
