Chapter 163: The Secret of the Perfect Score, Second Stage Ends!

The Martial King's low voice echoed throughout the conference hall.

In an instant, all the King-Conferred Strong Ones' bodies jerked, staring fixedly at the screen.

Imperial Realm!

It is the realm above the ceiling.

Although the ceiling is also called emperors, but it is not the Imperial Realm; their realm is merely a step stronger than the King-Conferred Strong One realm, only half a step away from the final Imperial Realm.

Since the last Imperial Realm vanished from the Myriad Races Continent, the continent has seen no further birth of Imperial Realm powerhouses.

Even the emperors of the God, Demon, and Immortal Three Races are at most only half a step into the Imperial Realm.

But once an Imperial Realm is born, the entire situation of the Myriad Races Continent will be completely shattered.

Su Yu's Arhat Golden Body appearing signifies...

Imperial Realm... is about to be born!

In that moment, all the King-Conferred Strong Ones' faces turned extremely grave.

The manifestation of an Imperial Realm, whether it arises from the Human Race or any other race, is a catalyst.

A catalyst capable of changing the world!

Only the Shadow King's face turned somewhat unsightly.

The Charming King looked at the Shadow King with great interest.

"Shadow King, let's see now whose talent is truly superior!"

In that moment, the Shadow King could not speak.

He very much wanted to say that Zhang Xiaobai's talent was superior, but with the appearance of the Arhat Golden Body, everything is nonsense.

The Arhat Golden Body has not appeared in the Human Race's history for thousands of years, yet Su Yu has now achieved it.

He broke Daxia's record.

If he still insisted on saying that, it would simply be wasting his status as a King-Conferred Strong One.

The Martial King took a deep breath, his gaze toward Su Yu becoming blazingly hot.

"What a pity, he was actually taken as a disciple by the Slay Dragon King!"

The Martial King sighed.

To be frank, the Martial King really felt an impulse to snatch Su Yu from the Slay Dragon King's hands.

But even as strong as the Martial King, he dare not claim he could match the Slay Dragon King.

Don't look at the Martial King being the Human Race's second King-Conferred Strong One; compared to the Slay Dragon King, he's basically trash.

The Myriad Races Continent's first King-Conferred Strong One is no joke.

Even if a half-step Imperial Realm expert makes a move, they may not necessarily be able to kill the Slay Dragon King.

This is the terror of the Slay Dragon King.

At this moment, not only did the Martial Artists Association hall erupt, but countless viewers in the live stream also burst into an uproar.

"Hiss, Arhat Golden Body! This thing isn't only supposed to exist in legends, is it?"

"Hahaha, indeed worthy of being the first heavenly pride of my southern region—have you seen it, Arhat Golden Body? Can you people of Jingdu compare?"

"I have heard that after forming the Arhat Golden Body, one's future achievements will not fall short of the Human Race's three ceilings; could it be that, given time, our Human Race will give birth to a fourth ceiling powerhouse?"

In that moment, the barrage in the live stream instantly boiled over.

And in the virtual world, the white-jade-like radiance slowly dissipated.

Only seen, Su Yu walked onto the second stone tablet.

A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

He gently placed his hand upon the second stone tablet.

Buzz—buzz—buzz!!!

A faint hum resonated.

A brilliant light flashed, instantly illuminating the entire training field.

Here, it seemed there were no other colors—only endless gold.

Su Yu bathed in the gold, like a golden war god.

Then, the scores were announced.

Two hundred points!

In that moment, everyone fell silent.

Two hundred points!

A score never before seen in Human Race history.

In Daxia's history, the highest score ever recorded in the second stage was only from decades ago—the Blade Emperor's score.

One hundred ninety-nine points!

Yet even so, the Blade Emperor did not achieve a score of two hundred.

Thus, in everyone's impression, one hundred ninety-nine points is the limit of the second-stage score—no one could ever reach two hundred!

However, today—

A perfect score of two hundred points appeared for the first time in the world's view.

And this person is called Su Yu!

In that moment, all the people of Daxia deeply remembered the youth before them named Su Yu.

At this moment, in the Martial Artists Association conference room—

Each King-Conferred Strong One looked on in disbelief at all this before them.

Two... two hundred!

Hiss, it's simply too unbelievable; if I hadn't seen this score with my own eyes, I wouldn't dare believe it!

Yeah, back when we could reach 190 points we were already smug, but now others just shoot straight to 200—comparing people just makes you furious!

Several King-Conferred Strong Ones sighed.

The Martial King even took a deep look at Su Yu's score, then turned his gaze to the King-Conferred Strong Ones in the conference room.

I don't know if you've heard of a legend.

The Martial King's voice drew everyone's attention; even the ever-uninterested Charm King looked over.

The Martial King took a deep breath, his expression solemn as he spoke.

The Blade Sovereign once told me a secret.

It is said that the limit of the Human Race has never been golden talent; the reason golden talent is considered the highest talent among humans today is because the current Human Race can at most produce monsters with golden talent.

Moreover, above golden talent there is an even stronger talent, but we cannot detect it, so we uniformly label it as golden talent.

And do you know why the Human Race's college entrance exam has never seen a perfect talent score?

The Martial King looked at the crowd, yet even this group of King-Conferred Strong Ones didn't know.

The Martial King smiled faintly.

Because once talent reaches full marks, it means that person's talent has already surpassed golden talent!

In an instant, everyone's faces turned pale as they stared fixedly at the Martial King.

A King-Conferred Strong One, parched with thirst, spoke.

Martial King, what you say is true—if that's really the case... then this Su Yu...

He didn't finish his words, but everyone already understood his meaning.

The Charm King's eyes lit up as he said.

Not bad, not bad—the son-in-law I picked for my little girl is different; it's a pity, though, that someone says he doesn't measure up to Zhang Xiaobai!

The Shadow King's face grew even uglier.

From the start, I've been targeted by the Charm King, all the way to now.

However, the current Shadow King had no mood to dwell on the barb in the Charm King's words; instead, he looked toward the Martial King and spoke in a low voice.

If one's talent surpasses golden talent, does that mean... he has a chance to step into the Imperial Realm?

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire hall fell silent instantly.

Generally speaking, talent is something ethereal, but only after you advance to a higher realm do you realize how important talent is.

The Martial King nodded, speaking in a low voice.

In theory, to break through the Imperial Realm, one must be an existence surpassing golden talent!

Upon hearing this, everyone's hearts and minds trembled again.

Even the Martial King said this—doesn't that mean Su Yu has the qualifications for the Imperial Realm!

In an instant, even the Shadow King who had been targeting Su Yu began to breathe rapidly.

He suddenly stood up and shouted loudly.

Hurry up and bring Su Yu to Jingdu; you know the situation—maybe the myriad races don't know, but if they learn of Su Yu's talent... the consequences are unimaginable!

Although the Shadow King targeted Su Yu, it was because he had been punished by the Slay Dragon King before, so he naturally felt nothing toward Su Yu.

But looking at the overall situation of the Human Race, the Shadow King still wants the Human Race to become better.

The Shadow King's words were approved by many King-Conferred Strong Ones.

At this moment, the Charm King let out a cold laugh.

Do you really think the Slay Dragon King doesn't know? Believe it or not, if the myriad races dare to act now, they will have no return!

Upon hearing the Charm King's words, the Shadow King sat down embarrassedly.

Good grief, I almost forgot that Su Yu is the disciple of the Slay Dragon King.

He might doubt the Slay Dragon King's temper, but he would never doubt his strength.

The Martial King sat in his seat, pondered for a moment, then spoke.

Don't rush; let's talk after the college entrance exam ends.

Everyone nodded; then a King-Conferred Strong One chuckled and said.

The second stage of the assessment should be ending soon; tomorrow is the third stage—I don't know where you, Martial King, have placed this third-stage assessment.

Everyone was somewhat curious.

The third stage of the college entrance exam has always been arranged by the Martial King.

Each time, unless it's the last day, even these King-Conferred Strong Ones don't know.

Even the Charm King cast his gaze, after all his disciple is participating in this year's college entrance exam.

The Martial King smiled faintly, a glint flashing in his eyes.

The Path to Heaven... Myriad Races Battlefield!

Along with the appearance of 200 points, Su Yu's name rose to first place again, and moreover, with a perfect score of 300 points, he stood atop first place.

This time, no one mocked; they silently looked at the name of first-place Su Yu.

As Su Yu's image faded, the second stage gradually approached its end.

One by one, the examinees withdrew from the virtual world and returned to reality.

Jingdu.

Zhang Xiaobai wore a solemn expression as he looked at Su Yu's score.

Two hundred...?

As the disciple of the Sword Sovereign, he naturally knows many secrets, one of which is the legend about talent scores.

Zhang Xiaobai bared his teeth, grinning.

"Damn, how did you show up this year, you freak? If I don't get first, how am I going to face my old man when I go back?"

"No way, I have to push hard in the third stage, otherwise if I don't get first, my old man will beat me to death!"

A hint of cruelty appeared on Zhang Xiaobai's harmless-looking face.

Another examination hall in Jingdu.

Wu Ling'er looked at Su Yu's score with a lovesick gaze.

"As expected of my husband, he actually got a perfect score, hehe!"

Modu

Beichen's face was ice-cold; even seeing Su Yu rise to first place again, there was not a ripple on his face, as if he were born with facial paralysis.

"Arhat Golden Body... perfect score!"jj. br>

"Somewhat interesting!"

Beichen's mouth curled into an arc as he took a deep look at Su Yu's name, then left the examination hall.

"See you in the third stage!"

Northern Region

Tang Nian Bing looked at Su Yu's results with a complex expression; the proud, lovelorn look vanished from her stunning face.

You should know that when he previously took the mock exam, Su Yu was merely a two-turn Flawless Golden Body.

Yet in just half a month, he leapt to a three-turn Arhat Golden Body.

The gap between them is such that even giving Tang Nian Bing a year might not be enough to bridge it.

Arhat Golden Body!

Tang Nian Bing sighed.

"No wonder he's the disciple of the Slay Dragon King; perhaps what the teacher said is true—my opportunity lies with him."

Just thinking about this, Tang Nian Bing's cheeks suddenly turned bright red, like a monkey's butt.

Southern Region

In the examination hall of Zhen Nan Cheng.

Nan Shou Ren exited the virtual world with a ferocious expression, tightly gripping the rankings above, his fists clenched, his whole body trembling violently from anger.

"Damn it, an Arhat Golden Body—how is that possible!"

Nan Shou Ren growled low, emitting a sound like a beast's roar from his throat.

"How could he possibly forge an Arhat Golden Body!"

Nan Shou Ren was utterly incredulous.

Instantly, a sense of defeat welled up in Nan Shou Ren's heart.

Soon, he slowly lifted his head, his eyes becoming incredibly clear.

"Su Yu.... I will surely catch up to you!"

"I will let everyone know that the top talent of the Southern Region is me, Nan Shou Ren!"

Jiangnan Sheng

Su Yu exited the virtual world, glanced at the rankings, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Not bad; if I can hold steady in the third stage, the top three should be no problem, but my goal is first place!"

Su Yu stretched, then walked out of the examination hall.

"I don't know where the third stage is located."

Su Yu whistled, hands in his pockets, and walked out slowly.

But as soon as he stepped out, Su Yu froze.

All he saw outside the examination hall was a sea of people; even the strong ones of the Martial Artists Association maintaining order could not stop this enthusiasm.

"Su Yu! Wuhu! We are the pride of Jiangnan Sheng!"

"Hahaha, did you see? That's Su Yu, indeed a remarkable talent!"

Upon seeing Su Yu emerge, the crowd burst into cheers.

Su Yu was somewhat dazed by the thunderous cheers of gongs and drums.

Soon, Jiang Shang appeared beside Su Yu, pulling him toward the special passage.

Soon, the two arrived at a small room.

Jiang Shang sighed.

"You kid, you've become a model for Jiangnan Sheng."

Su Yu raised his eyebrows slightly, then heard Jiang Shang's explanation.

After seeing Su Yu's results, the people of Jiangnan Sheng spontaneously came to cheer him, after all Su Yu is one of them and he took first place in the first two stages.

If nothing unexpected happens, Su Yu will definitely have a place among the top three.

That's why, even before the college entrance exam ended, they started cheering for Su Yu in advance.

Upon hearing that, Su Yu's mouth twitched—goodness, are the people of Jiangnan Sheng really this enthusiastic?

"Alright, rest well; given this situation, you won't be able to leave today."

Jiang Shang looked through the window at the dense crowd, and couldn't help but say his scalp went numb.

Su Yu nodded, his heart beginning to anticipate the third stage's evaluation.
