When the blue light disappeared, the young man opened his eyes, staring intently at Jun Yi, and muttered to himself, "Level 32? How is that possible? How is that possible? How old are you this year?"
Upon hearing this, Jun Yi smiled calmly and said, "Of course it's 12 years old."
"What? He's only 12 years old and already a level 32 Soul Elder?" The young man gasped, his eyes filled with undisguised surprise.
"This... how is this possible?" The young Soul Master was extremely surprised. He quickly picked up the form that Jun Yi had filled out and began to examine it. When he saw that the last column listed the academy as Heaven Dou Royal Academy, his confusion deepened. After all, in their eyes, Heaven Dou Royal Academy was just an ordinary academy with the royal name on its name, and it was incomparable to the Spirit Hall Academy.
However, despite his doubts, he suppressed them and said, "You have already passed the first test, and because your Soul Power exceeds level 25, you are exempt from the second and third tests. I will have someone take you directly to the fourth test, the practical assessment."
Upon hearing this, Ning Rongrong asked curiously, "Huh, isn't this the same as the shady merchant uncle's academy rules?"
Zhu Zhuqing nodded and murmured, "It seems that Shrek Academy's assessment method is a copy of the Spirit Hall Academy."
"That's exactly the kind of thing Dean Flender would do," Jun Yi chimed in. In the original story, Flender was known for his cost-saving measures, so it wasn't surprising that he would plagiarize an exam.
The three were complaining about Flender when the teacher called over a student from the Spirit Hall Academy. The teacher whispered something in the student's ear and then had him lead the three to the practical assessment field.
The practical assessment took place in a huge square, covering several thousand square meters, where many young men and women had already gathered to participate in the assessment.
"Wow, it's so lively!" Ning Rongrong exclaimed excitedly upon seeing the dense crowd in front of her.
"As expected of the Spirit Hall Academy, it's so much more impressive than Shrek Academy," Jun Yi murmured.
"Hmm." Zhu Zhuqing was also awestruck by the grandeur of the Spirit Hall Academy and nodded in agreement. Compared to this, Shrek Academy's environment was like a humble abode.
"Please follow me, all three." The young man led the three to the designated assessment area.
During this time, Jun Yi noticed that the examiners in charge of the assessment in the training area seemed to be only around 20 years old, quite young, and looked like students. So he asked, "Excuse me, the examiners in charge of the practical assessment look quite young. Are they all students from the academy?"
"Yes, our Spirit Hall Academy is divided into an outer academy and an inner academy. In order to better train the inner academy students in practical combat experience, the academy assigns inner academy students to conduct the assessments each year," the student leading the way explained.
Ning Rongrong asked with some curiosity, "If that's the case, won't it create students with extremely powerful family backgrounds? Wouldn't that mean they could directly enter the Spirit Hall Academy?"
The student leading the way shook his head and said, "Of course not. The academy has very strict requirements for the assessments, and the identity of each student is verified. Anyone who violates the school rules will be punished, and violators will be expelled from the academy."
"That's true. After all, it's the Spirit Hall Academy. If I can think of something, you can definitely think of it too," Ning Rongrong said with a wry smile.
"We're almost there. Because one of you is a transfer student, and your situation is somewhat special, plus your abilities are indeed extraordinary, the assessment will be conducted separately," the student leading the way said.
Soon, the student leading the way brought Jun Yi and his companions to a very quiet arena. There were no students being tested here, which made Jun Yi a little curious. Not far away, a blonde woman was sitting cross-legged, meditating and cultivating.
The student leading the way stepped forward and bowed to the blonde woman, saying, " Your Saintess Hall, there are three students who are somewhat special in today's assessment, and we require your testing."
The blonde woman opened her eyes, her gaze captivating and breathtakingly beautiful. She stood up, her eyes sweeping across the room before suddenly landing on the three of them. Raising an eyebrow, she said, "The three of them?"
Her voice sounded a little hoarse, but that hoarseness carried a special charm.
"Yes, Your Saintess Hall, the boy among the three is a transfer student with Soul Power level of 32. The other two are Auxiliary System Soul Master and an Agility Attack System Soul Master, with Soul Power Level of 31 and 27 respectively," the young student replied respectfully.
The saintess nodded and said, "Understood. Hand them over to me, you may leave."
"Yes, sir." The young student immediately bowed and took his leave.
After the Soul Master left, the blonde woman walked towards Jun Yi and the other two. When Jun Yi arrived at the assessment site, he immediately recognized the blonde woman as Hu Liena, the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall.
At this moment, Jun Yi began to mentally rant. "Seriously, I even run into a key figure here? You think I can just sit here for a small assessment and run into Hu Liena? The Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall, even if she's not incredibly busy, she's definitely very busy. Why is she here as an examiner for this freshman assessment? Is she just bored? If the plot keeps going like this, tomorrow they might as well just let me meet Bibi Dong."
"Hello, I am Hu Liena, your examiner for this practical assessment."
Hu Liena looked at the three of them, a warm smile on her face. The smile seemed genuine, as if it were completely unpretentious, an innate warmth, as if she were truly familiar with Jun Yi and the other two.
Upon seeing the friendly Hu Liena, Ning Rongrong returned the smile and introduced herself, "Hello, senior, my name is Ning Rongrong, and this is my sister, Zhu Zhuqing."
Upon hearing the name " Ning Rongrong," Hu Liena frowned slightly, then smiled and said, " Ning Rongrong? What a coincidence, you share the same name as that young lady from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."
After hearing Hu Liena's words, Ning Rongrong quietly walked to Hu Liena's side and said cautiously, "Um, senior, actually I am the Ning Rongrong you mentioned. I snuck out this time to enroll in the Spirit Hall Academy. You have to keep it a secret for me."
"That's a bit difficult. After all, this is the Spirit Hall Academy, and the students' basic information is transparent and public. You probably won't be able to hide it for long," Hu Liena replied.
"It's okay, as long as my family doesn't know," Ning Rongrong said, waving her hand.
"Well, after students enroll, their families are notified to ensure there are no problems," Hu Liena said with a helpless wry smile.
"Uh..." Ning Rongrong was dumbfounded. She hadn't expected that the Spirit Hall Academy would have so many rules, while Shrek Academy didn't.
Seeing Ning Rongrong's stunned expression, Hu Liena smiled and said, "It's alright, Rongrong. We'll think of another way after you enroll. Now, you two come with me for the test."
