Chapter 20: My Goal is the Nine Great Dao Academies!

If it weren't for the rules of the Immortal Exam test, which didn't allow for probing a candidate's other attributes at will, he would have even wanted to touch Lin Mo's Root Bone on the spot to see how heavy it was.

It wasn't that low-rank spells couldn't get high scores, but the requirements for getting a high score were too outrageous, and these seventeen or eighteen-year-old teenagers found it very difficult to do.

Spell cultivation was divided into several levels according to proficiency: Entry, Minor Accomplishment, Great Accomplishment, Peak, and Perfect Completion.

According to calculations, Lin Mo being able to get a spell score of 180 proved that his proficiency in Kui Xing Stance had reached over 600 points, which was the level of Ultimate Peak.

This was difficult to achieve without ten or twenty years of hard cultivation.

If it were placed in a stance competition for old men in a residential park, it would be at the level of winning the top three.

"You are very good."

This was the second time the invigilator had praised someone today, and it wasn't for Zhu Hongyuan, who had a higher score, but for Lin Mo.

The students under the stage had different expressions.

Those who didn't know Lin Mo well were fine; at most, they were just a bit surprised that another high score had suddenly popped up today.

But those who knew Lin Mo didn't look so good.

Li Feng opened his mouth wide, his eyes full of disbelief, his expression both ashamed and annoyed.

His score was 352 points, just 2 points over the line.

And Lin Mo's score was 155 points over the admission line, a hundred points higher than him!

As for him, who had just mocked the other party for going up to lose face, wasn't he the one losing face now?

As for the few classmates beside him, they were also surprised at first, and then looked lucky.

*Luckily, I didn't mock him just now... * This thought rose in their hearts simultaneously, and then they silently looked at Ye Chen beside them.

Ye Chen's eyes were slightly stunned, and then his brows furrowed tightly. He didn't know what he was thinking, kept his mouth shut, and didn't say anything.

*As expected of you, still acting silent and cool... * Lin Mo took in their expressions one by one and was quite satisfied in his heart.

Thanks to the efforts day and night during this period, plus the all-night "overtime" last night, he finally completed the counterattack before the third mock exam.

Do you know how many Merit Points it cost me to raise Kui Xing Stance to the Peak Realm?

A full 1800 points!

This was the result of nearly two days!

The hard work finally had a concrete meaning at this moment.

Just as he was laughing in his heart, a black shadow suddenly rushed onto the stage with lightning speed, grabbed his lapel hard, and roared:

"You really deserve to die! How did you score so high? Did you cheat behind your dad's back? Tell me quickly, you cheated, your real score isn't actually this high, tell the teacher quickly, ah ah ah ah..."

Lin Mo froze in place, looking at Zhang Da, whose saliva was flying onto his face. The latter was roaring at him, having almost lost his sanity.

*Almost forgot this grandson... *

It turned out the one who felt the worst wasn't anyone else, but Zhang Da.

Until the third mock Immortal Exam test ended, a group of people followed the invigilator out of the gymnasium, all wanting to go to the director's office to join in the fun.

Among them, Lin Mo also followed beside the invigilator Nong Qing, his position actually shoulder-to-shoulder with Ye Chen.

And Zhang Da, who couldn't accept it, was still muttering beside him:

"This shouldn't be, how is it possible? How did you get to Qi Refining Level 4?"

"When I went to the temple to make a wish, I didn't make one for you!"

*You really are a dog... * Lin Mo muttered in his heart, then smiled indifferently on his face and said:

"I don't know, maybe I just suddenly had a breakthrough."

Speaking of this, he deliberately glanced at Ye Chen, who was following the invigilator out, and said:

"I haven't farmed any pills recently. I just practiced and practiced and then broke through. Maybe it's just good luck."

He bit the words "good luck" very hard. Ye Chen, who was still acting deep, suddenly had his face sink.

Lin Mo pretended not to see it, turned his head to the invigilator and said:

"Oh, this progress speed is still not good enough. I still have to continue to work hard. Teacher Nong Qing said that if I want to get into Xuanyuan Dao Academy with this score, it's still quite dangerous."

Nong Qing: "..."

*I said the second half, but I don't acknowledge the first half! *

Nong Qing coughed lightly and said:

"Little brother, don't belittle yourself. You are indeed very good."

"What I meant just now was that if you want to be recruited in advance, your score is indeed still a bit short, but it's not impossible to discuss."

The students beside him were even more surprised when they heard this.

Lin Mo was almost reaching the requirement for recommended admission?

But soon a doubt arose in their hearts: why didn't Zhu Hongyuan, who had a higher score, receive an invitation?

Nong Qing naturally knew what they were thinking, but didn't explain too much.

Although for most cultivators, Spirit Root aptitude meant everything.

But for body cultivation, the most important thing wasn't Spirit Root, but 【Root Bone】.

The better the 【Root Bone】 value, the faster the speed of practicing body cultivation divine abilities.

And under the same realm, cultivators with higher Root Bone values were more likely to exceed those with lower Root Bone values in combat power.

And if the 【Root Bone】 was good enough, it could even derive special physiques.

Physiques like: Blood Python Physique, Shaoyang Physique, etc., had bonuses when practicing special body techniques and divine abilities, and their combat power far exceeded cultivators of the same realm.

I heard that a rare innate Desolate Ancient Sacred Physique appeared in the neighboring province this year, and it even had a chance to compete for the top of the Qinzhou Hundred Provinces Immortal Exam this year.

This was the advantage of a special physique.

After Nong Qing asked for Lin Mo's consent just now, he took the opportunity to touch the latter's bones and found that his Root Bone seemed to be no different from ordinary people, and even tended to be lighter.

But the Peak Realm Kui Xing Stance couldn't be fake, so he seriously suspected whether Lin Mo possessed some kind of mutant physique that couldn't be detected.

There had been cases in previous Immortal Exams.

The so-called "not impossible to discuss" was actually a precaution for the 【Special Physique】 that might exist.

Of course, compared to Lin Mo, who had high uncertainty, his interest in Ye Chen was obviously higher.

This was a confirmed 【Child of Luck】. Maybe all the students present didn't know that the Child of Luck's significance to a Dao Academy even exceeded that of an ordinary genius.

Therefore, the task indicator given to him by the academy was that he must bring Ye Chen back!

Thinking of this, Nong Qing glanced at Ye Chen, whose face was not very good, and spoke at the right time:

"As for student Ye Chen, I represent Xuanyuan Dao Academy in issuing a recommended admission invitation to you!"

As soon as these words came out, the surrounding students exclaimed again, with obvious envy on their faces.

Xuanyuan Dao Academy ranked 11th among the thirty Dao Academies in Qinzhou, definitely considered a medium-to-high-level Dao Academy.

For ordinary Immortal Exam candidates, it was a Dao Academy they dreamed of attending.

Ye Chen, who received the invitation in person, had his face clear up slightly, then adjusted his expression slightly, and said to Nong Qing:

"Teacher Nong Qing, if going to the director's office is to talk about this, then please allow me to refuse, because..."

He paused, glanced at Lin Mo sideways, a flash of disdain in his eyes, and then said sonorously:

"My goal is the Nine Great Dao Academies!"

There was another uproar all around.

Amidst the exclamations of the crowd, Lin Mo also glared back unyieldingly.

*What are you looking at? As if everyone's goal isn't the Nine Great Dao Academies. *

*I just followed along to see the world, definitely not because I wanted some mere 11th-ranked academy's recommended admission... * ===== CHAPTER 21 =====
