Qin Xiaowan's performance just now had shocked everyone. Now she was going to test her Talent Value, so everyone was even more eager to see what her score would be.
"Ye Tian, I didn't expect that beauty to be so incredible. Are you two close?" Chu Hongyuan whispered to Ye Tian.
"Brother Chu, is your memory failing you? Didn't Zhou Xiang tell you? Why are you asking again? If you're thinking of making a move on her, forget it. Do you think you could even beat her?" Ye Tian said, rolling his eyes at Chu Hongyuan.
"I knew you'd just shoot me down, you punk. Just wait, Brother Chu will give you a big surprise, too. I have to get to know this beauty. After all, I'm your Brother Chu, right?" Chu Hongyuan said with a laugh.
Ye Tian was genuinely speechless. When had this guy gotten so shameless? "Let's talk about it later. Right now, let's just see what her Talent Value is."
Below the arena, many people were whispering about Qin Xiaowan. The male students' eyes shone with infinite admiration, while the female students were filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred. She alone had captured the hearts of so many male students.
Qin Xiaowan, however, was not the least bit affected by the crowd below. She slowly closed her eyes, circulated the Dragon Spiritual Power within her, and gently placed her hand on the screen.
At this, the crowd below quieted down, all of them silently watching Qin Xiaowan's test. In a surprising turn, even the students from the other four classes who were testing on their own platforms paused to watch.
As Dragon Spiritual Power flowed continuously into the screen, a few breaths later, it flashed with a dazzling light. A brilliant smile spread across Qin Xiaowan's face when she saw it.
That one smile was enough to leave countless male students mesmerized. Soon, the light vanished, and the test's Talent Value appeared on the screen.
For a moment, the entire venue fell silent. A moment later, thunderous applause erupted, along with cheers and shouts of acclaim. The atmosphere instantly became electric.
Expressions of surprise flashed across Xiao Wenjie and Guan Tianshui's faces. "Everyone, quiet down. I never expected that among our Linyuan Students, a genius has appeared once again—and a beautiful one at that. She will be a top priority for our academy to nurture!
"A Combat Value over five thousand is very difficult for a female student to achieve. Her Talent Value is three thousand four hundred sixty, which produced a green light. With both her Combat Value and Talent Value, she qualifies to advance directly into the elite class.
"I believe there are more geniuses like her among the students who have yet to be tested. The testing will now continue. Let's wait and see what happens!"
Qin Xiaowan gave a slight bow to Xiao Wenjie and Guan Tianshui before walking over to the group of people who had advanced. There were already over thirty people standing there.
Inspired by Qin Xiaowan's performance, many students became filled with confidence and unleashed their strongest abilities. The male students, in particular, were all hoping to get into the elite class—after all, a beauty like Qin Xiaowan would be there.
The testing proceeded in full swing. At this moment, there was only one person left in front of Ye Tian. It would be his turn to test soon, and he was quite looking forward to it.
"Ye Tian, all eyes will be on you. I hope you get what you want!" Chu Hongyuan said to Ye Tian.
"If you want to go up first, I can let you go and show off. Maybe you can win the beauty's heart in one go!" Ye Tian said with a smile.
"Nah, forget it. I'll see how you do first. That way, I'll be more confident. If you don't make it, then the mission of looking after the beauty in the elite class falls to me. I won't disappoint you," Chu Hongyuan chuckled.
"Is that so? Then you're probably going to be disappointed," Ye Tian said, just as the student ahead of him trudged dejectedly off the platform.
It was Ye Tian's turn. He slowly walked toward the platform, glancing at Qin Xiaowan, who was standing in the crowd. At that moment, Qin Xiaowan was also looking at him, her gaze complicated and her thoughts unreadable.
Meanwhile, in Class Two's area, Ye Feifei was also staring intently at Ye Tian, her heart feeling like it was about to fly out of her chest. "Go, Brother Tian! Wait for me!" she whispered.
Ye Tian was currently concealing his strength at the One Vein Seventh Layer. However, on the platform, both Xiao Wenjie and Guan Tianshui looked at Ye Tian with doubt written all over their faces. His Power Level was blurry; even with their strength, they couldn't seem to see it clearly. But they felt certain of one thing: this person's strength was definitely not just at the One Vein Seventh Layer.
"Brother Xiao, do you think this kid can advance?" Guan Tianshui whispered to Xiao Wenjie beside him.
"I'm very puzzled as well. This kid is impossible to read. It seems like he's deliberately hiding his strength. Judging by his calm expression, it's very likely he'll give us a surprise," Xiao Wenjie said.
"That's right. If he is hiding his strength, then this strike will surely be earth-shattering. If he's really only at this Realm, then getting into the elite class will be difficult. Let's hope the two of us haven't misjudged him!" Guan Tianshui said.
The two of them were using Secret Transmission to speak, so the people nearby couldn't hear them at all. Meanwhile, Ye Tian had already arrived in front of the stone pillar.
He glanced at the stone pillar and, without a second thought, threw a punch. He only used seventy percent of his strength in what was just a casual strike. His goal was simply to see how powerful the punch was. After all, he had three chances; it wouldn't be too late to use his full strength later.
A powerful recoil knocked him back a step. An attack like Ye Tian's had never been seen before. Everyone else had maintained a certain distance before rushing toward the stone pillar to increase their Attack Power.
But he just stood right in front of the stone pillar and threw a casual punch. He was treating the test like a joke, leaving many onlookers baffled. 'How much Combat Value could an attack like that even have?' they wondered. Most of them figured he probably didn't want to get into the elite class.
Soon, the Combat Value of Ye Tian's strike appeared on the screen. The number shocked both Xiao Wenjie and Guan Tianshui, who were standing to the side. Even Wei Cheng showed a look of surprise.
Although it didn't quite reach a Combat Value of five thousand, it still hit over forty-three hundred. And that was from a completely casual strike! He hadn't used his full strength at all.
To produce such a Combat Value with a casual, close-range attack... just how high would his score be if he used his full strength? The instructors on the platform were all dying to know.
"This kid really is something else. We'll be able to see his true strength soon. An attack that casual would require the strength of at least the Second Vein Second Layer, yet he doesn't have the aura of someone who has broken through to the Second Vein. Strange, very strange!" Xiao Wenjie said.
"Let's just keep watching! That last strike was most likely him testing his own Combat Value. He probably only used about seventy percent of his strength!" Guan Tianshui said…
