Chapter 51: In 8 days, I haven't even reached the 9th level of the 1st rank!
"Anyone below the second rank who comes will die? Isn't that an exaggeration?"
"If you're so good, then you do it."
"I'm not going. I want to graduate alive."
......
The post was shared wildly. It spread from local forums in Hangzhou to national forums for people with supernatural abilities, and then to various social media platforms.
Someone edited the two videos together into a compilation, and changed the title to "The F-level Thunder's Counterattack: From Waste in Donghai City to Top of Hangzhou's College Entrance Examination."
The number of video views increased from a few thousand to tens of thousands, and from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands.
......
Hangzhou Practical Training Base, Invigilation Hall.
Dozens of monitoring screens were neatly arranged in the hall, each displaying real-time footage of different areas within the examination room.
Examiner Zhou sat at the control panel, with a 40-second video of a one-against-three fight playing on the tablet in front of him.
She watched it three times.
First, watch the whole thing; second, watch the details; third, watch it frame by frame in slow motion.
After watching it, she put the tablet on the table, leaned back in her chair, and let out a long sigh.
"First tier, ninth level".
The young examiner sitting next to him opened his mouth and said, "His application materials state that he is at level 4 of the first tier."
"Registration materials are registration materials, and actual combat is actual combat."
Examiner Zhou tapped the tablet screen with his finger and continued, "Judging from the force of his spear that shattered the shield, he's at least at level 9 of the first tier. He's also genuinely at least seven rounds of bone tempering."
The young examiner hesitated for a moment: "Sister Zhou, can an F-rank lightning-type really achieve this level of performance?"
The examiner, Ms. Zhou, did not answer, because she did not know either.
Then, the door opened.
A middle-aged man in a dark gray uniform walked in. He was burly, with short, graying hair, and wore the badge of the Hangzhou Superpower Association on his chest.
Chief Examiner Meng is the highest-ranking official at the Hangzhou examination center.
The examiners in the hall all stood up. Chief Examiner Meng gestured for them to sit down, then walked straight to Examiner Zhou.
"Get the information of that candidate named Lin Yuan."
Examiner Zhou was prepared and handed over the tablet.
The screen displays detailed candidate information: Lin Yuan, 18 years old, from Donghai City.
On the day of awakening, the ability was rated as F-rank lightning type.
Awakening time... When she saw that line, Chief Examiner Meng's gaze also stopped there.
"Awakening time: 18 days ago."
Chief Examiner Meng remained silent for several seconds.
"Eighteen days. From F-rank lightning elemental, not yet advanced, to rank 1, level 9."
The young examiner interjected, "The information might be incorrect. Should I contact the Donghai City Superpower Association to verify it?"
Chief Examiner Meng nodded.
A few minutes later, the Donghai City Superpower Association replied.
The young examiner held the printed fax, looking as if he had seen a ghost.
"It's been verified. There are no errors." His voice was a little dry.
"Lin Yuan awakened eighteen days ago, is an F-rank lightning elementalist, and has not yet entered the next rank. On the day of his awakening, he was jilted by the Su family, who agreed to a ten-day agreement."
Ten days later, he defeated the S-rank ice-type ability user Su Qingyue in a head-on confrontation at the Donghai City Arena. At that time, Su Qingyue was at Tier 1, Level 3, while he was at Tier 1, Level 6, and then there was the Bone Tempering Wheel level.
He paused.
"According to the Donghai City Association's archives, when he last purchased supplies from the association before leaving Donghai City, the number of Bone Tempering Wheels registered was seven."
The examination hall was so quiet that only the static of the monitor screens could be heard.
Chief Examiner Meng placed the fax on the table and tapped the paper lightly twice with his fingers.
"In eighteen days, he went from an F-rank to the ninth level of the first rank without advancing, and underwent at least seven rounds of bone tempering. He also defeated an S-rank in a head-on battle."
He looked up at Examiner Zhou: "Which university accepted him?"
"Shanghai"
The examiner, Zhou, continued, "She was personally recruited by Shen Man; she's an S-level freshman."
Chief Examiner Meng leaned back in his chair, his face expressionless, but the fingers that had been tapping on the table stopped.
"Shen Man, that girl, has a sharp eye."
......
Deep in the dense forest, Lin Yuan was unaware that the examiners from Hangzhou had thoroughly investigated his past.
He was busy killing monsters.
Since he had taken down Han Feng and his two companions that morning, he had finally gotten some peace and quiet.
No more immature teenagers shouting "I challenge you!" will jump out of the bushes, and no more rich kids blocking the road with "I refuse to accept this!"
Everyone reached a consensus—that F-rank lightning-type fighter carrying a purple spear was not someone to be trifled with.
Stay away and don't block his way; let him kill his monsters.
Several candidates even saw him from afar and deliberately took a detour, whispering among themselves as they walked: "It's that guy who won nine games in a row, hurry up and hurry up."
Lin Yuan was happy to have some peace and quiet.
With no one bothering him, his scoring efficiency was at its maximum.
The system notifications were frantically scrolling through his screen on the edge of his consciousness.
[Defeat the second-tier, level-3 Shadow Panther monster, gaining 90 Ability Points and 12 Points]
......
[Defeat the Tier 2, Level 4 monster, Rock Armor Giant Lizard, Psychic Points +110, Score +14]
Thunder Walks the Nine Heavens' proficiency increased from Master (53%) to Master (61%). Sands of Time increased from Proficiency (8%) to Proficiency (12%).
The Thunderclap skill was used the most, and its proficiency level rose from proficient (0%) to proficient (18%).
As darkness fell, Lin Yuan leaned against an old pine tree, using Zidian (a type of lightning bolt) to support his body, panting heavily.
It's not because I'm tired. My stamina from the Nine-Round Bone Tempering is there; I wouldn't get tired even after killing monsters all day.
He had run out of energy, so he took out a water bottle from his storage bag and took a few sips.
Then he opened the system panel.
[Host: Lin Yuan]
[Weak Lightning Strike (Lightning Element): Rank E, Tier 1, Level 9]
[Herrscher of Time and Space (Time-Space System): S-Rank, Tier 1, Level 5]
[Muscle and Bone Tempering: 9 rounds (99% progress)]
[Combat Skill: Thunderclap Across the Nine Heavens Proficiency: Master (61%)]
[Combat Art: Sands of Time Proficiency: Proficient (12%)]
[Combat Skill: Thunder Finger Proficiency: Proficient (18%)]
[Special Ability Points: 2480]
Points: 1756
1756 points, 2480 ability points.
Lin Yuan stared at those two numbers for a long time.
Points exceeded 1,700, and ability points exceeded 2,400.
One day, from morning to evening, undisturbed, he went all out and was so efficient that even he himself was a little surprised.
Just then, my phone vibrated.
He took it out; the signal was only one bar, but the message still managed to get through.
White glass, two strips.
First comment: "Senior, I watched that video again. Your purple finger technique is amazing."
The second tip: "Keep going. Be careful."
Lin Yuan smiled slightly and replied with a message: "Received. Good luck to you too." Then he put his phone back in his pocket.
The sky began to gradually turn yellow.
Today is the last day of the practical exam. We need to get to the practical training base before 7 p.m., which is where we started from.
After finishing the exam, Lin Yuan planned to return to Hangzhou, retrieve the fourth-tier lightning-type combat skill given to him by Han Feng, and then head to Shanghai.
Lin Yuan checked the time; it was already 6:03 PM.
"Oh dear, I need to hurry back, or I'll be too late."
After saying that, Lin Yuan headed towards the combat base.
