Chapter 136: S

Speaking of which, Changxing City's move this time is still quite bold.

Looking at the third-rank monster in the video, Director Liu smiled and said, "Under the premise of ensuring safety, allowing examinees to encounter a third-rank monster in advance is a good thing."

Now third-rank monsters are increasing; they will eventually encounter them.

An hour is almost up; according to the rules, this third-rank monster will next be killed by the Special Affairs Group personnel." Fan Gang chimed in, feeling somewhat disappointed.

Although the third-rank monster is strong, if multiple formal-level players with maxed-out Spirit Beast ranks join forces, it is not entirely hopeless to slay it.

In this practical exam, there were over thirty formal-level players, more than double the previous number, yet the result was that they only knew how to dodge the third-rank monster.

They were unwilling to even try, ultimately appearing cowardly.

The one responsible for killing it is Ji Huai, right?" Director Song chuckled, "Then we can take this opportunity to see the demeanor of Changxing City's top expert."

As fellow formal-level players, Ji Huai's repeated slayings of third-rank monsters rely on pure skill and technique, and the deep excavation of extraordinary power brought by physical fitness.

This is also why Yan Da is making great efforts to recruit him.

In modern society, such talent is truly rare.

Yan Da was a step slow; most of the talent they could have scooped up was taken by Hua Qing.

Amid the chatter, Zhou Xiaoyu, who had remained silent, suddenly let out an exclamation.

How did Qin Chuan come here?!

The smiles on Director Liu and Director Song's faces retracted at the same time.

Watching Qin Chuan actively charge at the third-rank monster, their expressions were shocked mixed with bewilderment.

Just Qin Chuan alone?

How dare he…

Before they could comprehend, a blade-light that split the sky slanted out from Qin Chuan's long sword, like a crescent of pure white moon shrouded in cold mist, sweeping across the body of the roaring third-rank monster.

The third-rank monster was as if hit by a pause button; its howling and movement ceased abruptly.

In the next instant, its massive body crashed to the ground, split in two.

The wound from that single slash had not a trace of blood; everything was instantaneously frozen, the ice-mirror-like cut inspiring awe.

Having delivered that slash, Qin Chuan turned and left, disappearing from the spot within a few seconds.

The small meeting room fell silent.

Ah!

Lan Cheng suddenly felt regret: "The signal just now seemed poor; the picture only synced to this side, not to the other meeting room… Looks like we need to replay it there."

The four admissions office staff all shot strange glances.

At this point, how could they not know why Lan Cheng had singled out their two universities and placed them in a separate meeting room? They kept saying it was for fairness and justice, yet your operation is too shady… but… they liked it! 'Replaying is inappropriate.' Director Liu spoke solemnly, 'Right now the exam is underway; every second brings new battles. Replaying earlier fights would prevent other examinees' shining moments from being seen—this is highly unfair.'

Not bad." Director Liu rarely sided with Director Song, his expression quite serious, "If missed, it's missed; continue playing other examinees' performances."

What you say also makes sense." Lan Cheng sighed regretfully, "But just now the network was unstable, and Qin Chuan's safety helmet temporarily failed, so this 1,000-point third-rank monster probably can't be counted toward his score."

Yes, yes, it's truly a pity.

The two directors echoed in unison, though their hearts had already blossomed with joy.

Not recording suits them just fine. The big screen switched to the next examinee's battle, but Director Liu and Director Song now had no inclination to watch.

They buried themselves in recording; the towering waves in their hearts lay hidden beneath their feigned calm expressions.

Ice system, far surpassing the strength of formal-level players, a Yanhuang Nation player.

Just these three points are enough for them to know Qin Chuan's other identity.

Almost simultaneously, the two directors finalized Qin Chuan's final rating.

S+

Zhou Xiaoyu suddenly let out a breath of relief.

She seemingly no longer needed to blame herself for causing Yan Da to lose talent through her own initiative.

Her face regained a smile, while Fan Gang beside her could hardly manage a smile.

The smile will not disappear; it will only shift.

The final hour of the exam passed quickly.

Just as the two directors and two observers were preparing to immediately seek Qin Chuan, Lan Cheng stood up and called out to them.

'Four.' He picked up the file bag placed on the table upon entering the small meeting room, calmly drew out four confidentiality agreements, his smile turning dangerous, 'Qin Chuan's identity information is classified as top-secret; since you know it, please sign the agreements.'

'Section Chief Lan, this…' The two directors were both laughing and crying.

At this moment they rather felt like they had entered a wolf's den.

Watching the four sign the confidentiality agreements, Lan Cheng's smile returned to gentleness, 'Take your leave, no need to see you out.'

Taking Zhou Xiaoyu out of the meeting room and parting ways with the two from Hua Qing, Director Song's face instantly filled with a rich smile, 'Xiaoyu, if you can secure Qin Chuan this time, you will have rendered great service.'

'Director, after signing that agreement, can we still sign Qin Chuan?' Zhou Xiaoyu showed a worried expression, 'Giving an S+ rating yet being unable to state the reason for the rating will likely cause considerable controversy.'

'You still lack experience.' Director Song's face remained calm, 'Just tell them that we two signed the confidentiality agreement and cannot disclose specifics; they will naturally realize Qin Chuan's importance.'

'Moreover, the pearl will not stay dusty forever.' Director Song's steps paused for a moment, 'Qin Chuan will sooner or later reveal his own brilliance.'

'S+' is the limit of the rating, but not necessarily his limit.' — 'All right.'

Qin Chuan, having signed the agreement, extended his hand and shook hands with the beaming Director Song before him.

After the exam ended, Yan Da and Hua Qing both arrived at the door.

Although Hua Qing gave the same final rating as Yan Da, he ultimately still had little hesitation and chose Yan Da.

After the Hua Qing admissions staff departed in disappointment, both parties signed the relevant agreements on recommendation and support.

'The agreement stipulates that the three-million-yuan scholarship will be deposited into your account immediately.' Director Song said with a smile, 'The resource tilt for S+ level need not wait until after the college entrance exam; it can start now.'

'All the resources you need, we will report and mobilize manpower to gather fully; each month you have a quota of twenty thousand Special Affairs points, unused amounts can accumulate, and if exceeded we will still gather fully, but you must cover the Special Affairs points yourself.'

'Your information clearance is S-level; all existing information in the Dream World can be accessed, and you may apply for manpower to gather the information you need.'

Yan Da's latest development, the cultivation method 'Unnamed Breathing Technique' with coefficient 5.4, you can now obtain and study in advance.

Qin Chuan classmate, welcome to become a member of Yan Da. — New round of peripheral activities see the figure below (open illustration to display view).
