After several days!
Zhang Mo and Li Yun arrived at the front of the largest central plaza in Tianfeng City.
“Today is the final exam. I wonder what the content will be,” said Li Yun, taking a deep breath, his expression rather nervous.
“We’ll know once we get there,” Zhang Mo replied, his eyes revealing anticipation as he gazed at the central plaza, which had already been sealed off.
After presenting their identification documents, Zhang Mo and Li Yun entered the central plaza.
The originally empty ground was now packed with virtual cabins.
In the center of the plaza stood a giant virtual projection screen.
Around the plaza, there was a circle of temporary viewing platforms that had been built, and hundreds of people were already gathered there.
Zhang Mo glanced around and immediately recognized most of the people.
Aside from the principals of various universities, there were also several bigwigs from Tianfeng City.
At that moment, Yang Yu Tong, dressed in casual clothes and exuding an aura of boldness, appeared in front of the crowd. “Firstly, congratulations to all of you for passing the first two rounds of our Starfall University’s tests.
“Next, I will announce the final round. You will enter the virtual cabins for a battle. There are ten levels, and you will be competing with the other candidates from your province. Your final ranking will be determined by the number of levels you clear, and this will determine your eligibility to enter Starfall University. ”
“Your battles will be projected onto the virtual screen,” Yang Yu Tong continued. “I have a suggestion. The faster you clear each level, the better. If you have the same score, those who clear the levels faster will be prioritized for admission.”
“However, because the number of virtual cabins is limited, we will divide you into batches to take the exam. Now, please go to the designated virtual cabin when your name is called.”
Upon hearing Yang Yu Tong’s words, most of the candidates became tense.
“What are the levels about? Why won’t they tell us?”
“If they do this, wouldn’t those who take the exam first be at a disadvantage?”
“What disadvantage? Even if you know the exam content, you can’t cheat. Whether or not you can pass depends entirely on your own ability.”
The candidates in the field were in an uproar.
Zhang Mo’s lips curled into a slight smile. This exam was quite interesting.
Furthermore, he could let loose and fight without restraint in the virtual space.
“Quiet!”
Yang Yu Tong’s voice boomed, instantly silencing the entire plaza.
She continued, “Now, I will begin calling out the names… ”
As each name was called out, the candidates entered the virtual cabins one after another.
“It’s my turn. Cheer for me,” Li Yun said, clapping Zhang Mo on the shoulder and walking towards the front.
“Looks like it’s not my turn yet,” Zhang Mo said, watching as all the virtual cabins were opened. He casually sat on the ground and looked at the big screen.
Compared to the other candidates, he was incredibly relaxed.
As the exams proceeded, the levels appeared on the screen. Zhang Mo realized that the first few levels were mostly about battling fierce beasts, and while the beasts that appeared in each level were different, their strength gradually increased.
At that moment, the principals of the various universities gathered together and started to discuss.
“Good. This candidate is called Shen Fei, right? From Ninth High School. What a promising student. His strength is already at the peak of the early stage of the third rank.”
Some of the principals cast envious glances at Qian Sheng, the principal of Ninth High School.
Qian Sheng grinned. “Shen Fei is indeed excellent, but the one you should be envious of is Lao Wang. Their high school’s Zhang Mo is an official beast hunter. In my opinion, he has the potential to compete for first place in the province.”
Upon hearing these words, everyone was stunned, speechless for a moment.
First place in the province? And for Starfall University’s entrance exam?
Were they joking?
In the history of Tianfeng City, no one had ever achieved first place in the province for Starfall University, not even for the other less prestigious top-ten universities.
Even if he was a formal beast hunter, he probably wasn’t good enough.
Wang Hong quickly spoke up. “He just has a chance, that’s all.”
“......”
What was going on? Could this Zhang Mo really be that strong? They could tell Wang Hong was somewhat confident.
When did this small Tianfeng City produce such a promising young man?
At the same time, Yang Yu Tong and the others were sitting in another location. Most of their attention was also focused on the virtual screen.
“Hmm, not bad. This year’s batch of candidates from Tianfeng City is not bad. Maybe we can admit a few.”
“Oh, right. Don’t forget about Zhang Mo. He’ll definitely be admitted. The only question is if he can clear all ten levels.”
“Don’t think too much about it. The last few levels are guarded by fourth-rank warriors hired by Starfall University. Even though Zhang Mo can defeat the Ink-Jade Dragon, it’s impossible for him to clear all the levels.”
“Right, no one has ever cleared all the levels in this type of exam at Starfall University.”
The examiners constantly discussed, their conversation mostly revolving around Zhang Mo.
At this moment, as one of the candidates was defeated in the level, Yang Yu Tong said with her internal energy, “Zhang Mo of First High, please go to virtual cabin number 69 to take the exam.”
As soon as these words left her mouth, the examiners behind her all lit up. They stopped discussing and looked at each other with anticipation.
Under their gaze, they saw a figure emerge from the group of candidates.
However, soon, everyone’s pupils dilated as they stared at Zhang Mo, their eyes popping out.
“His cultivation... is he at the peak of the third rank?”
A sense of disbelief swept over everyone.
Even Yang Yu Tong, who usually had a calm demeanor, stood up involuntarily.
If she remembered correctly, during the second round of exams, Zhang Mo’s strength was only at the peak of the second rank. He had only improved one major realm in the mere ten days that had passed.
“My goodness!”
“How is that even possible?”
“Is this Zhang Mo cheating?”
After a long moment, the examiners were in an uproar. Their eyes were filled with shock, as if they were looking at a monster.
