Assessment
Having hunted Exotic Beast all day, Chen Lie did need to replenish his energy, so after leaving Pang Xiuming's office, he went directly to the cafeteria on First Campus for a meal.
Upon arriving at the restaurant, Chen Lie ordered a Advanced Rare Treasure Meal and then found a seat to eat.
Chen Lie had barely sat down when he heard a clear voice ring out from ahead.
"Chen Lie, may I sit here?"
Chen Lie looked up and saw Mu Ningshu holding a plate, her pretty eyes looking at him.
So he said, "Whatever."
Upon hearing this, Mu Ningshu smiled slightly and then sat down opposite Chen Lie.
"Chen Lie, our advisor just said that we'll all be taking the Class Promotion Assessment tomorrow."
"Okay, I understand." Chen Lie nodded.
"Then... I'll wait for you on the first floor tomorrow?"
"Sure, but I'm not sure what time I'll leave."
Mu Ningshu smiled gently, "It's alright, I don't have anything else to do tomorrow, I'll just wait for you."
"No need for that. I'll try to be there before 10 o'clock. You can wait for me around 10 o'clock."
"Okay." Mu Ningshu nodded.
Chen Lie ate very quickly, finishing most of the rare meal in less than two minutes.
Mu Ningshu was eating elegantly when she saw Chen Lie eating so fast that she gritted her teeth and started eating at the same pace. Mu Ningshu finished her meal just as Chen Lie Chen Lie, and then they walked back to Chen Lie Dormitory in the Teaching Building together.
Before entering the Teaching Building, Mu Ningshu said, "Chen Lie, I'll find your ' Green Bubble' friend in the class group later and send you a friend request. Don't forget to accept it!"
As soon as Chen Lie returned to his Dormitory, his Communicator, marked by Green Bubble, beeped.
I took out my Communicator, opened the message, and sure enough, it was a Green Bubble friend request.
"Mu Ningshu has requested to add you as a friend."
Chen Lie clicked the "agree" option directly.
Scrolling down the messages, Chen Lie saw that many students in his class had requested to add him as a friend.
Chen Lie only accepted friend requests from a few people he had spoken to, ignoring the rest.
After browsing through Green Bubble's group chats, Chen Lie saw that he already had many official group chats.
There are chat Ordinary Class Dongchuan Province Key High School, chat Elite Class, chat groups for Genius Training Camp, chat groups for the Provincial Youth Genius Group, and now, chat 15th Key Class at Blue Star University.
These group chats receive several messages every day. When Chen Lie saw a group chat with 99+ messages, he didn't open it.
At this moment, Mu Ningshu sent a message to Chen Lie.
Mu Ningshu: "See you tomorrow, Chen Lie!"
Chen Lie simply replied with an "Mm".
Just as I was about to log out, I received another message.
Upon opening the message, Chen Lie realized it was sent by Luo Zhixun.
Luo Zhixun: "So, Chen Lie, did you get nominated as a mentor?"
Chen Lie: "I've already received it."
Luo Zhixun: "Yeah, I just found out too. This time, for the Class Promotion Assessment, each Key Class only had two nomination slots, and the slots were only given to the Key Class 20 Key Class. But with your abilities, you'll definitely get one of the slots."
Tomorrow, after you pass the Class Promotion Assessment, I'll take you to meet a senior colleague.
Chen Lie: "What senior?"
Luo Zhixun: "He's my father's master, a Ninth-Order Grandmaster, the former president of Blue Star University. He's now retired and is the vice president of Blue Star University. I call him my grandmaster."
Master? Chen Lie was taken aback.
In the path of martial arts, the relationship between master and disciple is not much different from that between father and son.
Disciples are required to perform a formal apprenticeship ceremony, involving three kowtows and nine prostrations. This is not a typical student-mentor relationship.
Chen Lie hadn't expected Luo Zhixun to have this kind of relationship.
Ninth-Order Grandmaster is a top-tier powerhouse on Blue Star. As far as Chen Lie knows, there are currently no Tenth-Order Heavenly Human Grandmaster on Blue Star, so Ninth-Order Grandmaster belong to the first tier of Blue Star.
Chen Lie: "Okay, I understand."
Luo Zhixun: "Okay, see you tomorrow then. I'll go directly to the Class Promotion Assessment Center to find you."
After replying to Luo Zhixun's message, Chen Lie put down the Communicator.
That evening, Chen Lie did not cultivate his Mental Power again, but instead took a good rest.
The next morning, just as dawn broke, Chen Lie washed up and went downstairs to the Cultivation Room.
Inside the Cultivation Room, Chen Lie sat cross-legged on the cultivation platform, preparing for the initial cultivation of the fourth organ of the Organ Refining Stage, the Ren Fire Heart.
Several hours passed, and with the nourishment of his Qi and blood, Chen Lie's progress in Organ Refining gradually approached completion.
Having realized that the initial tempering of his heart was complete, Chen Lie stopped cultivating.
Glancing at the time, it was already 10:30 AM. Remembering that he still had to take the Class Promotion Assessment today, Chen Lie immediately left the Cultivation Room and went down to the Teaching Building.
Teaching Building for the 15th Key Class, Mu Ningshu was pacing back and forth.
She had actually been waiting Teaching Building since before nine o'clock, but more than an hour had passed and she still hadn't seen Chen Lie. The deadline for the Class Promotion Assessment was noon, and considering it was already 10:30, she wondered if Chen Lie had already gone. But they had already made plans; he couldn't just stand her up, could he?
After waiting and waiting, Mu Ningshu finally saw a figure walk out of the Dormitory Building.
Upon recognizing the person, Mu Ningshu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Chen Lie, I thought you had abandoned me." Chen Lie walked out of the Teaching Building and immediately saw Mu Ningshu.
Hearing Mu Ningshu's complaint, Chen Liedao, "I just happened to have some insights into martial arts, so I was delayed a bit."
"If you have any insights into martial arts, you definitely shouldn't miss it."
Mu Ningshu nodded slightly. "Then let's hurry up, it seems the Class Promotion Assessment ends at 12 o'clock."
Chen Lie nodded. He wasn't quite sure where the so-called Class Promotion Assessment Center, but going with Mu Ningshu would save him the trouble of asking for directions. And so, Chen Lie and Mu Ningshu arrived at the Class Promotion Assessment Center in the Second Campus.
Outside the Class Promotion Assessment Center, several people were currently undergoing Class Promotion Assessment.
"I thought everyone else would have finished their assessments by now, but I didn't expect there to be so many people still taking them." Mu Ningshu was somewhat surprised to see this scene.
"To be Class Promotion Assessment and wait in line here."
The staff at the Class Promotion Assessment Center saw Mu Ningshu and Chen Lie arrive and gave them a heads-up.
"Hello, I am Mu Ningshu from the 15th Key Class. This is Nomination Letter from my advisor, Pang Xiuming."
Mu Ningshu handed the letter directly to the staff member.
"Mu Ningshu, with your nomination, proceed to Channel 1 for the Class Promotion Assessment!"
The staff member took the letter and said...
"Thanks!"
Mu Ningshu turned to look at Chen Lie and said, "Chen Lie, I'll be going now."
After speaking, Mu Ningshu went directly to the assessment channel.
After Mu Ningshu, Chen Lie arrived at the staff member's window.
"Chen Lie, from the 15th Key Class!"
Chen Lie handed over the letter, saying, "This is the Nomination Letter."
The staff member took Chen Lie's letter, nodded, and said, "Chen Lie, go to Channel 3 to take the Class Promotion Assessment."
Chen Lie glanced at the assessment area and noticed that the Class Promotion Assessment assessment was divided into eight channels, each marked with a number from ~ to ⑧. At that moment, only Channel 5 were lit in green; the other channels were lit in red, indicating that people were walking through them for the assessment. Chen Lie walked directly into Channel No. 3.
As soon as Chen Lie stepped into Channel No. 3, he entered a glass enclosure.
A mechanical voice rang out.
"Bone age testing is underway..."
"Bone age test complete. Result - Bone age: 18 years old."
After the mechanical sound, the glass dome in front of Chen Lie suddenly shrank and disappeared.
The green arrow indicating walking guidance reappeared in front of me.
Chen Lie kept walking forward, and after walking about twenty or thirty meters, Chen Lie saw a Blood Essence Detector.
"Please proceed to the testing area for blood and qi testing."
Chen Lie spotted a Red Line Zone flashing with light and walked over to it without making a sound.
He couldn't possibly reveal his nearly 13 times Strength Value; according to the Virtual Illusion Realm, 12.5 times the Strength Value would already make him number one in the Canglan Star Domain, so being so conspicuous wouldn't do.
Upon arriving at the detection area within the red line, Chen Lie immediately employed the Qi and Blood Diffusion technique, attempting to deceive the instrument's detection.
As a beam of blue light swept across Chen Lie's head, the blood and qi test results came out instantly.
"Test complete, Blood Qi Value 3558.86 jun."
Chen Lie frowned immediately. He had clearly doubled his blood and qi temporarily; according to the Strength Value testing device in East River Province, the measured Blood Qi Value should be around 4,000 calories. This Blood Essence Detector at Blue Star University seemed different, measuring only 3,500 Blood Qi Value. "Please proceed to the Strength Value testing device next door for a strength test."
After leaving the Qi and Blood testing area, Chen Lie arrived at a Strength Value detector.
"Please hit the target in front of you with all your might."
Upon hearing the instruction, Chen Lie raised his fist, holding back some of his strength, and feigned a full-force punch towards the target for testing his Strength Value. A loud "boom" rang out.
A value immediately appeared on the target: 26370 jun.
At that moment, the Strength Value test suddenly started flashing a red light.
"The system detected that the test subject's muscles were relaxed when throwing a punch. The system determined that the test subject did not exert full force. Please test again."
Upon hearing this prompt, Chen Lie was immediately taken aback.
How can this instrument be so powerful? Is it imported from Outer Stars? It can even detect that he held back a fraction of his power.
So he had no choice but to throw another punch, this time without holding back, but with all his might.
With a "boom," another string of values popped up on the Strength Value meter.
"Strength: 28735.78 jun (a unit of weight)."
"Based on the Blood Qi Value test results, the test subject's Strength Value."
"Please undergo a physical fitness test..."
At this moment, the passage provided another prompt, leading Chen Lie to a projection screen, now at the central testing area.
"Physical fitness test in progress..."
On the light screen, Chen Lie's Tough Skin Resilient Flesh, dragon-shaped spine, and three major organs were instantly projected: golden lungs, a blue liver, and blue and black kidneys.
"Detected as mid-stage of the Organ Refining Stage..."
"Physical fitness analysis in progress..."
"Prompt: Analysis of the test subject's Bone Refining and Organ Refining Stage qualities failed. The contribution of bones and organs to overall physical quality is zero. A second manual analysis can be requested. Would you like to proceed with the second analysis...?"
Chen Lie replied directly, "No!"
"Analysis complete. Overall physical condition: Perfect."
"Testing complete; all tests conducted by the inspector meet the standards."
As soon as the mechanical sound subsided, the hatch in the passageway opened instantly.
Upon seeing this, Chen Lie walked directly out of Channel No. 3.
A staff member from the testing station approached Chen Lie.
"Hello, classmate, congratulations on passing the Class Promotion Assessment. From now on, you are a student in the Genius Class of Blue Star University."
Here is your certificate as a student in the Genius Class. Please Genius Class General Office tomorrow and select your class.
The staff member then handed Chen Lie a certificate.
Chen Lie took the certificate and glanced at the words on it: "Genius Class Promotion Assessment Certificate".
At this moment, Mu Ningshu also walked out of passage number 1.
The staff also issued a Class Promotion Assessment for Mu Ningshu.
Upon seeing Chen Lie, Mu Ningshu immediately stepped forward and asked, "Chen Lie, you'll Genius Class General Office tomorrow. Do you have a preferred class?" "No."
"I'm also completely clueless about the Genius Class. I'm planning to ask some students in the Genius Class in our Jinhai Province. Are you interested in coming with me?" Mu Ningshu asked.
Chen Lie shook his head and said, "No, I have other things to do."
"Oh well."
Upon hearing Chen Lie's reply, Mu Ningshu could only nod.
In her view, for Chen Lie, the Genius Class might only be a transitional period.
As soon as Chen Lie came out of the Class Promotion Assessment Center, he saw Luo Zhixun waiting outside.
Luo Zhixun saw Chen Lie and immediately waved. "Chen Lie, you passed the Class Promotion Assessment?"
"Okay!" Chen Lie nodded.
"I knew you'd be alright. Come on, I'll take you to visit my father's master."
Chen Lie asked, "Should I visit your father's master?"
"Yes, back in East River Province, I told you I would introduce you to a very important person."
"That's your grandmaster. Is it really necessary for me to visit him?" Chen Lie asked.
"Why is it unnecessary?" Luo Zhixun retorted. "You've passed the Class Promotion Assessment, but you're still a student in the Genius Class. With your martial arts experience, you should be in the Super Genius Class."
Although my mentor has retired, he still wields considerable influence at Blue Star University. I've asked him for a favor; perhaps he can get you skipped the Genius Class and directly into the Super Genius Class.
You were meant to be in the Super Genius Class.
"Alright then, let's go." Chen Lie nodded.
Luo Zhixun led Chen Lie directly to an airship.
Blue Star University covers a vast area; even for someone skilled in martial arts, traversing the entire campus on foot would take more than a day. Luo Zhixun and Chen Lie boarded the airship, the cabin door closed instantly, and the airship took off, speeding away into the distance.
