Arrogance That Couldn't Be Hidden, Shocking the Entire City's Leaders!

And at this moment.

Listening to the constant cries of "Eliminated" from the field.

Yu Feng's expression on the stage grew increasingly grim.

"Looks like this batch of students... isn't much good."

As the City Lord of Jiangdu City, if too few students from Jiangdu City were selected, he naturally would not be able to save face.

The key was that No. 3 Middle School's overall strength ranked in the top three throughout Jiangdu City.

If even No. 3 Middle School was like this, one could only imagine the standards of the other schools.

"My lord, to be honest, the 2% line really is too high! For many people, they might never reach 2% in their entire lives, much less these children."

The subordinate beside him complained quietly.

"The rules were set by those above. What can I do about it?"

Yu Feng felt a trace of helplessness as well.

"Emperor Wenchang, Divine Service Rating: 3%! Passed!"

Just then, the examiner's booming voice rang across the entire venue.

Boom!!

The entire field erupted!

"Wow, 3%!"

"Who is that? That's incredible!"

"It's Li Ruoyi from Class Three! That's insane, 3%! So impressive!?"

Cries of astonishment surged up like a tide.

Most of the students who had passed before had only barely crossed the 2% threshold.

This value was only 1% higher, yet its worth was as different as clouds and mud!

"That little girl is quite good."

Upon hearing the result, Yu Feng finally revealed a faint smile.

"My lord, that girl is called Li Ruoyi. She's one of our school's top students and will most likely go into civil service in the future!"

The principal hurriedly stepped forward to introduce her, his face full of pride.

Yu Feng nodded. "Not bad. If she enters the imperial court, she'll be worth cultivating."

If he could not win in quantity, Yu Feng felt that comparing quality was at least the next best thing.

After all, a Divine Service Rating of 3% at that age was absolutely the kind of talent found one in a thousand!

"Lu Chen, it's your turn soon."

Bathed in the envious gazes of countless people, Li Ruoyi walked energetically up to Lu Chen and quietly cheered him on.

Afterward, she went to stand with the other selected students.

"Ruoyi, why are you waiting for him? His elimination is set in stone."

"Exactly. If I remember correctly, his Emperor Wenchang rating was only 0.5%, right?"

Faced with the teasing from the surrounding students, Li Ruoyi merely smiled lightly. "What do you know? Just wait and see."

"Next, Song Hao!"

"It's finally my turn!"

Song Hao swaggered up to the testing machine.

The instant he saw the testing teacher.

The two of them suddenly exchanged a covert glance.

Song Hao connected the apparatus.

Data soon appeared.

"Kui Wood Wolf, Divine Service Rating: 3.5%! Passed!"

Buzz!!!

The crowd was thrown into an uproar once again.

"Holy crap, here's someone even higher!"

"My God, Class Three is way too strong! They already have two people with Divine Service Ratings above 3%!"

"The key is that the god he worships is Kui Wood Wolf of the Twenty-Eight Lunar Mansions! A deity of the Dipper Department!"

"Yeah, just in terms of strength, its value is far greater than that previous 3% Emperor Wenchang!"

Everyone around them was stunned.

"Not bad, not bad. At last, we have some eye-catching results."

On the stage, Yu Feng nodded repeatedly, quite satisfied.

"It seems Jiangcheng No. 3 High School does have some foundation."

The surrounding leaders all nodded in agreement.

The principal wore a placating smile, but doubts rose in his heart.

Something wasn't right...

He knew this Song Hao too.

His family was fairly wealthy, and he was a well-known little troublemaker at No. 3 Middle School.

His usual grades had always been below average.

Why had he suddenly performed so well in this grand assessment, even surpassing Li Ruoyi?

The principal frowned slightly, feeling that something was off...

"Hehe! Didn't expect that, did you? This is my true strength!"

Having finished the test, Song Hao strutted back with his head held high.

"Song Hao, you really hid your talents well!"

"So you're the one who played the pig to eat the tiger!"

"Amazing, amazing!"

The remaining students all gave him thumbs-up.

In the distance, Li Ruoyi also found it strange. "How did he suddenly become so impressive?"

"Yeah, I remember his test half a month ago. He was only at 1.8%. I thought he was going to be eliminated. Who would've thought that in just half a month, it would nearly double?"

Song Hao walked up to Lu Chen, raised his chin, and gave him a sidelong glance before smugly heading over to Li Ruoyi.

"Song Hao, how did you suddenly become so good? A 3.5% Divine Service Rating?"

"Yeah, truly, after three days apart, one must look at you with new eyes."

Listening to the praise from several female students.

Song Hao felt utterly pleased with himself. His eyes locked onto Li Ruoyi as he said, "Ruoyi, not bad, right? The one I worship is Kui Wood Wolf of the Dipper Department."

Li Ruoyi ignored him.

Song Hao did not mind. With these results, Heavenly Official's Blessing is definitely mine!

"Dad, your money really wasn't wasted! Reliable!!"

"Next, Lu Chen!"

The once boisterous field now seemed empty.

Only a few dozen people remained.

Lu Chen calmly stepped forward.

"It's Lu Chen's turn."

"Ruoyi, why are you so confident? Do you know what his Divine Service Rating is?"

"Take a guess~" Li Ruoyi blinked playfully.

Song Hao snorted coldly. "What could a useless, obscure god possibly amount to?"

"I wonder whether this final one can bring me a little surprise."

Several students with Divine Service Ratings above 3% had appeared in a row.

Yu Feng was now in high spirits, wanting to see whether the last one might uncover another treasure.

The principal beside him gave an awkward smile. "Leader, this... may disappoint you."

"Oh? Are his grades poor?"

"It would be more accurate to say... the word 'good' has absolutely nothing to do with him. This student is named Lu Chen, and he's a famous bottom-feeder in this year's class. In the last test, his Divine Service Rating for Emperor Wenchang was only 0.5%."

The principal clearly knew of Lu Chen as well.

"0.5%?" Yu Feng was stunned. "No matter how poor one's talent is, it shouldn't be this bad, should it?"

"That is indeed the fact, Leader." The principal's smile looked worse than crying.

Yu Feng sighed. "Then forget it. We're leaving."

"Yes, Leader. I'll see you out." The principal hurriedly bowed.

Yu Feng waved his hand and was about to leave with his subordinates.

"What's going on? Is the machine malfunctioning?!" The testing teacher suddenly cried out in alarm.

"What happened?"

"Principal! This machine seems to have a problem! It's displaying... 51%!"

"H-How much?" Yu Feng's footsteps abruptly stopped, and the dozen or so city leaders behind him all halted in unison.

"Reporting to the City Lord, it's displaying 50%. It's probably a machine malfunction."

"Nonsense! Why did it have to malfunction at a time like this!" The principal hurriedly ran over.

The testing teacher looked utterly confused. "I don't know either. The data suddenly jumped to this."

Even Lu Chen himself was somewhat dumbfounded.

50%?

His Divine Service Rating had risen again?

"Um..." He weakly raised a hand. "Is there any chance that I really am at 50%?"

"What nonsense are you saying! The City Lord is here, so be serious!" the principal scolded in a low voice. "Switch machines. Go test again over there!"

Lu Chen said, "Sigh, fine..."

"That scared me to death. I really thought we'd run into some ultimate freak."

"My heart was pounding too. Turns out the machine was broken."

"50%? That kind of result could go straight into textbooks!"

A second ago, everyone on the field had frozen on the spot.

But once they heard it was a machine malfunction.

The students finally let out a sharp breath of relief.

So it was a false alarm.

"Come on, test again!"

The principal personally oversaw it.

"Principal, something's wrong. This machine is broken too. It's also showing 50%!"

With a buzz.

The expressions on everyone's faces froze once again.

Yu Feng walked over, his expression grave. "What exactly is going on?"

"Leader, this machine seems broken too. It also detected 50%."

"They're all broken? How is that possible?"

Yu Feng's sharp gaze swept over.

Lu Chen spread his hands, his face full of innocence. "City Lord, I told them I was at 50%, but they refused to believe me."

"Lu Chen! Don't be insolent before the City Lord!"

The principal shouted sternly.

Yu Feng's gaze sharpened. With a beckoning gesture, he said, "You, come here! I'll test you personally!"

"Leader, this!" The other city leaders hurriedly tried to dissuade him.

Yu Feng raised a hand to cut them off.

The group moved to the third machine.

Yu Feng operated it himself.

At that moment, every gaze in the venue was fixed upon Lu Chen alone.

Yu Feng stared fixedly at the screen as the results appeared: [Lord God of Wealth, Divine Service Rating: 50%!]

"Again! Test again!"

The fourth machine showed no surprise: 50%!

"Test again!!!"

The fifth machine: 50%!!

"I refuse to believe it! Keep testing!!"

The sixth machine: "50%"!

By the time they tested the ninth machine.

Sweat poured down the face of this top Jiangcheng figure, a man who dominated one region and held the honored position of City Lord, like a raging storm.

He panted heavily, as though unable to believe what he was seeing.

The entire training ground fell into an unprecedented, suffocating dead silence!

Every face was utterly consumed by shock!

"There... there's still one last machine! Test it! Test it again!!!"

Yu Feng practically growled the words.

Yet there was no suspense at all.

Tenth machine: 50%!!

Bzzzz!!!!

At that moment, the entire world seemed to shatter completely before that string of numbers!

"Principal Zhang..."

After staring blankly for a moment, Yu Feng suddenly drew a deep breath, spun around, and seized the equally horrified principal by the collar. Pointing at Lu Chen, his eyes wide open, he demanded:

"You call results like this dead last?!"
