Chapter 74
The students in the Agronomy Department: "..." If you want to show off, just say so. Why all the drama?"
Moreover, the acting was so exaggerated, it was unbearable to watch.
The students in the Spirit Department were still recovering from the trauma, and for a moment no one paid attention to what Zhong Kun had said.
The automated voice sounded again after the test was completed, "Congratulations to Zhong Kun from the Department of the Agronomy Department for completing the test. Spirit Points: 280 points."
Wang Ruika, who had just recovered a little, was shocked again and shouted, "What the hell? How could that idiot from the Zhong Family have 280 points of Spirit Points!"
Zhong Kun had just stepped out of the mental testing device when he heard this and was furious. "Kazi! I treated you like a brother, and you think I'm an idiot?!"
Wang Ruika looked on incredulously. "Impossible! You, a Star Combat Department enthusiast... how could this be..."
Zhong Kun proudly declared, "I am now a student in the Agronomy Department!"
At that moment, a spiritual professor with a Spirit Department walked over.
The commotion was so loud that the proctors had already reported it to their superiors. Professor Wang happened to be in the courtyard, so he decided to come and take a look.
Wang Ruika saw her grandfather at a glance, rushed over and burst into tears. "Grandpa, is the mental health monitoring device broken? Zhong Kun's Spirit Points is actually 280 points, I don't believe it..."
Zhong Kun was furious. He grabbed Lin Zhaoqin and shoved her into the mental testing device, then turned around and said, "If we're really talking about it, Old Qin is more of a Star Combat Department fan than me! Everyone, take a look at her Spirit Points!"
Two or three minutes later, a mechanical voice announced, "Congratulations to Lin Zhaoqin from the Agronomy Department for completing the test. Spirit Points: 350 points."
Wang Ruika couldn't hold back anymore and fainted in her grandfather's arms.
Professor Wang rubbed his nose and said helplessly, "What are you comparing Spirit Points with the Nature Department for?"
Everyone looked completely bewildered.
Professor Wang continued, "Well, the Nature Department is the same as the Agronomy Department, they've always been focused on both physical and spiritual cultivation."
"Huh?" a student from the Spirit Department couldn't help but exclaim, "Isn't that the same as what happened at the Star-Slaying Military Academy...?"
"What are you thinking about?" Professor Wang asked. "It's that Star-Slaying Military Academy has always wanted to learn the dual cultivation of body and spirit from the Nature Department, but they've only made a fool of themselves by trying to imitate it poorly."
Jiang Yuqing: "..."
Spirit Department student. "!"
Professor Wang glanced at the other students in the Agronomy Department: "You all should get tested too."
After Fang Chuyun and Yu Hongyuan were tested, the results left the students in the Spirit Department completely numb.
Professor Wang sighed softly, "Why did the three major combat departments of the Zhongdu Military Academy dare to 'specialize' in one area in the early stages? Because they had the 'captain' to back them up!"
After entering the Astral Realm at the Third Grade Realm, people usually act in teams.
Despite the fierce competition among the various departments at the university, once they enter the Astral Realm, they unite as one.
In teams composed of graduates from the Zhongdu Military Academy, there is usually a student from the Nature Department serving as the team leader.
Star Wars focuses on the physical body, Star Magic on Star Skill, Spirit on spirit, and Star Support on healing.
Their Third Grade Realm of the Nature Department is the foundation for their ability to fight beyond their level.
Unfortunately, many people have forgotten.
It wasn't until so many graduates of the Third Grade Realm were lost over these 28 years that people suddenly realized the truth.
The Nature Department are gone.
Their Third Grade squad is no longer capable of fighting against opponents of higher ranks.
Although Professor Wang is the dean of the Spirit Department at the Zhongdu Military Academy, he has little say in the Star Nexus Pavilion.
He looked at the freshmen in the Agronomy Department, especially the tall, slender girl who remained calm despite being surrounded by a crowd...
Whether it's a blessing or a curse...
Hopefully, they will cherish this Heavenly Fortune Bearer from the Nature Department world.
Professor Wang's mind raced, and he said to Wang Ruika in his Spirit Sea, "I remember you're quite familiar with that kid from the Zhong Family?"
Wang Ruika said blankly, "It's alright..."
"Go and try to get close to him, see if you can get into the Nature Department."
Chapter 74
Next, the students from the Spirit Department underwent psychiatric testing.
Everyone lost interest.
They were already quite indifferent to the midterm exams, but now, seeing the Agronomy Department's Spirit Points, they've become even more indifferent.
What happened to the promised late-game focus on the Spirit Department dealers?
They're from the Agronomy Department; they can dominate the early game and also the late game!
Originally, the Spirit Department was very biased towards the Agronomy Department, and they would help them argue with everyone on the forum all day long. Now that I am the Joker, they have lost the mood to mock the Star Combat Department.
At this moment, Li Yang said to Jiang Yuqing, "You need to pay compensation for emotional distress."
Jiang Yuqing: "???"
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points +100 points.]
Jiang Yuqing was already shocked even before she understood the meaning of Li Yang's words.
I always felt this guy couldn't say anything nice.
As expected, Li Yang said, "Students in the Spirit Department value spiritual cultivation the most. You inexplicably came to our Department of the Spirit Department's midterm exam site, causing serious psychological trauma to everyone. Afterwards, they will definitely need to seek targeted treatment from a psychiatrist, so... you have to pay compensation for mental distress."
Li Yang spoke these words calmly and deliberately, which contained several "spiritual" elements, leaving Jiang Yuqing stunned.
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points +100 points.]
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points +100 points.]
At first, the students from the Spirit Department didn't quite understand, but after Li Yang finished speaking, they realized what she meant.
The previously listless freshmen now stared intently at Jiang Yuqing.
Yes!
If he hadn't insisted on comparing their Spirit Points, would they have been so frustrated?
Li Yang clearly didn't want to participate in the competition.
With such high Spirit Points, she shouldn't lose at all, so why is she keeping making excuses?
They are carefully protecting their "spirit"!
The students' initial unease vanished.
It's all Jiang Yuqing's fault!
It's all that Star-Slaying Military Academy's fault!
Jiang Yuqing: "..."
Those who understand the times are wise. Even before the students from the Department of the Spirit Department started criticizing, Jiang Yuqing could see the ferocity of hungry wolves pouncing on tigers in their eyes.
Spending a little money for a huge amount of Shock Points is definitely worth it.
Jiang Yuqing immediately said, "Tomorrow... tomorrow I will give each of the Spirit Department students present a Mind-Clearing Pill!"
The Mind-Clearing Pill is helpful for spiritual cultivation and is a necessity for new students majoring in the Spirit Department.
Seeing that Jiang Yuqing Li Yang didn't ask for more, only saying, "There are more people from the Department of the Spirit Department here, don't forget the Agronomy Department."
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points increased by 200 points.]
You've already made so many Fast-Acting Star Recovery Pills, why aren't you letting go of a mere few Mind-Clearing Pill?
Besides, the Agronomy Department is flush with cash; would they even bother with this "Mind-Clearing Pill"?
Zhong Kun didn't really care about a Mind-Clearing Pill, but he felt incredibly pleased to see Jiang Yuqing get the short end of the stick.
Buying your own Mind-Clearing Pill is nothing compared to the satisfaction of "stealing" them from the Star Slaying Pill Department Heavenly Fortune Bearer.
The latter is definitely tastier.
Zhong Kun said with a smile, "See you tomorrow, Jiang."
Jiang Yuqing: "..."
Li Yang then reminded him, "If you come tomorrow, don't forget the admission fee."
[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points +100 points.]
I'm impressed!
I'm completely convinced!
Jiang Yuqing did indeed discover a treasure trove of Shock Points, but this treasure trove was incredibly expensive.
The gloom in the assessment room was swept away, and the students of the Spirit Department were beaming with joy again.
Midterm exams are over.
The results haven't even been released yet, and the forum is already in an uproar.
The Star Combat Department students stood tall and proud. "Peak Second Grade Realm! 850 Physique Points! This is our Star Combat Department Heavenly Fortune Bearer!"
Not only the freshmen, but even the upperclassmen and teaching assistants were astonished.
The terror of the Heavenly Fortune Bearer has long been rumored, but not every student gets to experience it firsthand.
Seeing Lin Zhaoxia's Physique Points now, the students felt their hearts pound with fear.
While ordinary students are still struggling at the First Grade Low Stage, she is already close to graduation!
Admittedly, the Lin Family was giving their full support, but the root cause of Lin Zhaoxia's rapid progress was that she was stimulated by Li Yang during the freshman monthly exam.
The reason why the older generation of Star Wielders yearned for Heavenly Fortune Bearer lies here: one genius can inspire the fighting spirit of another genius, and even allow ordinary students to unleash potential comparable to that of a genius.
Lin Zhaoxia's Physique Points has broken records.
Zhong Qian's Physique Points is also 680 points.
In previous years, his Physique Points would have been enough to be the undisputed number one, but this year there are just too many monstrous talents, making his nearly 700 Physique Points seem unremarkable.
Zhong Kun had changed. Instead of praising his older brother, he objectively commented, "If I could grow leeks in the Star Ash Mystic Realm, my Physique Points would be 680 by now!"
Lin Zhaoqin glanced at him sideways and said, "You stole my lines."
Zhong Kun: "..."
Shen Shangchi and Ying Qi from the Star Magic Department also delivered outstanding assessment results.
They had all been to the Star Ash Mystic Realm, and the two months of nourishment they received there were unmatched by other students.
After leaving the Star Ash Mystic Realm, they put in a lot of effort to grind in the combat training room.
The freshmen's monthly exams were so embarrassing that they all wanted to redeem themselves in the midterm exams.
Unfortunately, there was no competition during the midterm exams.
Otherwise, Ying Qi would definitely fight Li Yang.
Ying Qi has been completely oblivious to everything else these past few days, focusing solely on increasing his Physique Points.
She was unaware that Zhong Kun and Lin Zhaoqin transferred to the Agronomy Department.
Shen Shangchi had heard about it, but there was no need to tell Ying Qi about these trivial matters, lest it interfere with her cultivation.
After the test was completed.
Shen Shangchi's Physique Points is 670 points.
Ying Qi's Physique Points was two points higher than Zhong Qian's —682.
The students in the Star Magic Department got excited again.
No one would compare themselves to Lin Zhaoxia; he's not even human.
And since they are stronger than Zhong Qian, it means the Star Magic Department has won!
At this point, the overall rankings hadn't been released yet, and no one knew Li Yang's Physique Points.
But judging from her dedication to growing chives every day, she probably can't be that good.
