Weng!
With a flash of light, the final rankings and results appeared on the screen. There were exactly five hundred names, no more and no less.
Upon seeing the results, a huge commotion broke out amidst the crowd.
"The results this time can be considered to have broken the record, right?"
"It can't be considered a record, but it's definitely one of the best results in the past thirty years!"
"First place Feng Ziyi, 70,000 points … Not even the little princess of the Luo Clan has managed to achieve such a result!"
"That's because the little princess of the Luo Clan didn't use her full strength. If she had, putting aside 70,000 points, I think that it's possible for her to achieve 700,000 points!"
"That's true. After assimilating the Dimension Silencer, her grasp over space has reached a certain level. If she were to use her full strength, no one would be able to match her. Even the folded space would be unable to withstand her might."
"Indeed. Without the legendary genius of the Zhang clan, it's definitely true that the little princess of the Luo Clan is the most talented person in the Master Teacher Academy!"
…
The master teachers couldn't help but remark.
They were all guides, and every year, they would guide innumerable students to the Master Teacher Academy. Without a doubt, this batch of students was the most talented in the past few decades!
First place Feng Ziyi, 70,000 points …
This result was truly frightening.
"Zhang Yu isn't too shabby either. With 69,000 points, he's only a thousand points away from the first place!"
"Who could have thought that Yuan Haiqing would rise a rank in the final refresh to become the third place?"
"Bai Qingxuan isn't too shabby either. He's already in the fourth place …"
Looking at the names in front of them, the crowd couldn't help but sigh in awe.
These were the experts who had managed to make it into the Elite Division, the most talented youths on the Master Teacher Continent. Their names would be heard everywhere for the next several hundred years.
"Bing Lingqing and Chen Leyao of the Glacier Plain Court have managed to make it into the Elite Division. Bing Lingqing's results have been hovering around the top ten, but Chen Leyao's luck has been pretty good. She has been hovering around the seventies or eighties all this while!"
"She must have completed some kind of formidable test at the very end, resulting in her sudden rise in results. I have to say, she's really lucky! "
"Indeed. It's a pity that Zhang Qian fell from the top fifty at the very last moment, resulting in him missing the opportunity to make it into the Elite Division!"
…
For the past three days, they had been looking at the rankings. Basically, they were very familiar with who was ranked where. The last change in the refresh, and the results were so obvious, they were definitely lucky.
"Un. Everyone, take a look at the fiftieth ranked Zhang Xuan … Where did he come from? I don't think I've seen this name before! "
All of a sudden, someone shouted.
Everyone looked over and sure enough, they saw an unfamiliar name in the fiftieth position … Zhang Xuan!
"This … This name wasn't even in the top five hundred before, so how did it suddenly reach the fiftieth place?"
"The fiftieth place has 12,700 points … I saw the top five hundred last time, and they had 2,400 points. That is to say, during the period of time when they refreshed, they had at least 10,000 points … How is that possible?"
"10,000 points in two minutes … Even Feng Ziyi wouldn't be able to do that!"
"Could he have cheated?"
Soon, voices of doubt appeared.
The Jade Token was refreshed every two minutes, and he hadn't seen this name the last time it was refreshed. Back then, the lowest score in the top five hundred was 2,400 … and the lack of a name meant that he hadn't even reached that score!
Two minutes later, it refreshed once more, and it had already reached more than 10,000 points … Did it have to be that exaggerated?
Other people couldn't even earn that much in three days and three nights, but he could earn it in two minutes. What kind of heaven-defying thing did he do?
Contrary to the doubts of the crowd, upon seeing Zhang Xuan's name, Zhao Xingmo heaved a sigh of relief.
He had been worried for the past three days. That fellow sure was a troublemaker.
He hadn't been able to find him on the first day, and he had thought that there was no hope at all. Yet, at the very last moment, that fellow actually managed to obtain more than 10,000 points and advance to the next round … Not to mention, he even got the last place in the Elite Division. Just the thought of it left him feeling excited and nervous.
It was a great honor for him to be able to guide a genius into the elite class.
"Zhang Jiuxiao, Ma Minghai, and Sun Qian … A total of seven people have passed this round. That's not too bad!"
Zhao Xingmo nodded.
Of the thirty-three people, seven had passed. Even though it wasn't as good as he had expected, it was still a good result for him to have a student in the Elite Division. With such a result, he would surely be able to recruit more geniuses in the future.
"There's something strange about this result!"
Similar to everyone else's reaction, Elder Liu Yu also frowned.
As an elder, he had seen many geniuses, but he had never heard of anyone who could earn more than 10,000 points in two minutes.
"Elder Han Zhu, go and check on it!"
After a moment of hesitation, Elder Han Zhu instructed.
"Yes!"
The elder behind him nodded.
Elder Han Zhu left the room, but not too long later, he returned with a bizarre look on his face.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing Elder Han Zhu's expression, Elder Liu asked.
"I just checked everyone's results and the change in time … and Zhang Xuan didn't have any results at all before the last refresh. In other words, in the last two minutes … he earned 12,700 points!"
Elder Han Zhu said.
Even though the jade tablet only showed the names of the top five hundred, the points of each person were calculated accordingly. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been able to determine who had passed the test.
Earlier, when he checked the previous results, he was shocked to find that Zhang Xuan hadn't earned a single point in the last two minutes. Yet, just as the test was about to end, he had suddenly charged into the top fifty … This was truly bizarre.
"He earned 12,000 points in one go? What kind of test in the formation would earn him so much? "Elder Liu asked.
"As you know, the Mountain Gate Challenge test was left behind by Sage Kui back then. Even elders like us aren't qualified to look into the contents of the test. However, based on the records of the past hundred years, the one who scored the most points should be deciphering the 8-star intermediate-tier Illusory Slaughter Formation, and the result is … 5,000 points! "
Elder Han Zhu hesitated for a moment before continuing. "This record was left behind by Zhang Chen of the Zhang clan twenty-five years ago, and it caused a huge uproar back then!"
"I know about this matter as well. 5,000 points is already shocking enough, but that Zhang Xuan actually managed to earn 12,000 points in an instant. Just what in the world did he go through for him to be able to achieve such a feat?"
Elder Liu still couldn't believe what he was hearing.
There was indeed a way to earn points swiftly in the test, but the corresponding test was also extremely difficult.
Even so, 5,000 points was already a feat in itself. Yet, the other party actually managed to earn more than 10,000 points in one go … Even he couldn't make sense of the matter.
"How about this? We'll announce the results first, and after that, we'll arrange for a challenge match. We'll send a few people to verify whether the other party has really achieved such a high result or not!"
Elder Liu paused for a moment before continuing.
"Alright!" Elder Han Zhu nodded in agreement.
After three consecutive days of examination, everyone would be extremely tired. Usually, they would rest right after announcing the results.
However, there were exceptions.
For example, if a person's results were too bizarre, they would arrange for a challenge match. Those who failed the test would challenge those who passed the test, and those from the Ordinary Division would challenge those from the Elite Division.
Firstly, this would allow them to observe the capabilities of the students so that they could tailor their teachings to them in the future. Secondly, this would allow the others to feel that the previous examination was fair and impartial.
Given that Zhang Xuan had managed to reach the top fifty in an instant, it was inevitable that they would be bewildered by the news. Thus, they had to conduct such a challenge so as to convince the others and verify whether the other party was the real deal.
"Let's go!"
After the discussion was over, Elder Liu Yu didn't say anything else. After bidding farewell, he took the lead and flew out.
The crowd quickly followed behind him, and soon, they arrived at the square.
At this moment, the students on the square had already walked out of the mountain gate, and they were looking at the sky expectantly.
"Congratulations to all of you for successfully completing the three-day examination. I'll now announce the results of the students who have entered the Elite Division …"
With a resounding voice, Elder Liu raised his hand, and the sky seemed to have turned into a sparkling jade. Names began to float in the air one after another.
Feng Ziyi, Zhang Yu, Yuan Haiqing, Bai Qingxuan …
Every single name that appeared would spark a round of cheers.
"I've heard of Feng Ziyi before. He's the direct disciple of one of the grand elders of the Master Teacher Pavilion!"
"The direct disciple of a Nine Stars master teacher? It's no wonder why he's so powerful. Someone like him has received the most accurate guidance ever since he was young. His zhenqi is extremely pure, and his physical prowess is impeccable. It's only natural for him to become the number one … "
"Indeed. However, I thought that Zhang Yu would be able to become the number one!"
"The Zhang clan is simply too large, and there are simply too many geniuses in it. Even though Zhang Yu is quite talented, he still isn't the number one. The resources that he can utilize are limited!"
There were quite a few names that everyone had heard of, and they shone as brightly as the stars in the sky.
"Chen Leyao? She has also entered the Elite Division? "
Zhang Xuan glanced at the name on the screen and nodded.
Chen Leyao was only at Leaving Aperture realm pinnacle, but she was still able to make it into the top fifty. It seemed like she had some unique means as well.
"There are so many people surnamed Zhang. Are they all from the Zhang clan?"
As more and more names appeared, Zhang Xuan couldn't help but feel a little perplexed.
More than forty names had already appeared, and there were at least ten surnamed Zhang. Could they all be from the Zhang clan?
There were a total of fifty people in the Elite Division, and for ten of them to appear … Wasn't this a little too frightening?
Hu!
Just as Zhang Xuan was about to ask if these people were from the Zhang clan, the light suddenly flickered, and his name appeared at the very end of the list.
"Zhang Xuan? Is he from the Zhang clan as well? "
"That's not it. I've seen the name list of the Sage Zhang clan this year, and there's no such name on it …"
"He seems to be an insignificant figure from Qingyuan Conferred Empire. As soon as he arrived, he offended Chen Leyao of the Glacier Plain Court and beat up Zhang Qian of the Zhang clan …"
"Beat up Zhang Qian? He sure is arrogant! "
"It's impossible for someone who can enter the Elite Division to not be arrogant!"
…
Upon seeing the appearance of Zhang Xuan's name, a huge commotion broke out in the crowd.
Of the forty-nine names before him, it could be said that most of them came from powerful clans or wielded extraordinary strength. Only Zhang Xuan's appearance was too abrupt.
A Primordial Spirit realm pinnacle cultivator, an insignificant figure from Qingyuan Conferred Empire, and yet, as soon as he appeared, he actually managed to make it into the top fifty …
This was truly inconceivable.
