Damn it!
The moment Wang Quan heard Su Ba's reply, his fists clenched tightly, his face as dark as thunder!
"Wang Quan, you have to stand up for me! That bastard humiliated me! No one's ever touched that part of me before~"
Jiang Lu Wan, furious at being ignored by Su Ba, whispered angrily into Wang Quan's ear in a sultry, pouty voice.
"Don't worry, Lu Wan," Wang Quan said viciously, staring at Su Ba's departing figure. "After the assessment, I'll crush that trash with one hand!"
"Get inside!"
At the testing area, a Phantom Night Academy instructor standing at the door pointed toward the assessment room with a blank expression.
"Got it."
Without saying another word, Su Ba pushed open the assessment room door and stepped inside.
He knew this room was equipped with instruments to test strength, speed, and reflexes.
Bang—!
The heavy door shut behind him. A red light above the room flickered on, indicating the assessment was in progress.
Outside—
"Hey, how low do you guys think this loser's score will be? Will he even hit 30 points?"
"Pfft—30? Are you blind? I'm betting no more than 25!"
"What an idiot. Where does he get the confidence? He's just going to embarrass himself. Now that he's expelled, he won't even get a chance next year!"
"Heh, that's why he's called trash—probably brain-dead too."
The whispers and mocking laughter spread among the crowd like wildfire.
Up on the platform, the third-year head instructor Yan Hua and both the headmaster and vice headmaster stood stiffly, expressions sour and stormy.
Damn it!
They had hoped to make a good impression on the martial institute recruiters and boost their academy's student acceptance rate. That's why they'd strategically asked the weaker students to drop out of the assessment.
Every other student had agreed—except one!
This blockheaded Su Ba just had to show up!
They had been so pleased, thinking this year's recruitment rate might hit 100%… And now, it was about to be ruined by the academy's weakest student!
Even though Su Ba had already been expelled, he was once their student.
Now, his miserable results would be displayed in front of all these recruiters—what a massive disgrace!
The headmaster's face was twisted like he'd swallowed a fly.
Damn you, Su Ba! Don't even think about ever stepping foot in another academy again. I'll personally blacklist you!
He cursed internally.
Ding!
Suddenly, the red light above the assessment room turned green—it was over.
At the same time—
Su Ba's results were transmitted through the cultivation-testing instruments to the crystal screen in the examiner's hand.
Su Ba hadn't even stepped out yet, but the examiner was already preparing to announce the results with a deadpan face.
Then—
His eyes locked onto the data.
And his eyes popped wide open!
His mouth opened… But no sound came out!
Holy sh*t!
Is this for real?!
The examiner stood frozen, face contorted with disbelief!
"What's wrong, Xiao Ji? Hurry up! Stop wasting time!"
Headmaster Xu snapped impatiently, frowning hard.
"Ah—yes!"
The examiner jolted out of his daze, then raised his voice and shouted,
"Su Ba! Strength: 1500 jin! Speed: 18.1 meters per second! Reflexes: Exceptional! Overall Score: 99!"
The entire hall fell silent.
W-What…?!
Headmaster Xu stared blankly at the examiner and asked, stunned:
"Repeat that."
And it wasn't just Xu—no one in the room could believe what they had just heard!
Especially the hundreds of third-year students standing below…
Every single one of them was completely dumbfounded.
