Chapter 93: Glazed: Big Boss~ You're so awesome~
"You're broken!!"
"Crazy, this world is crazy!"
With one scream after another, the entire hall erupted.
The candidates stared dumbfounded at each other, voices of doubt rising and falling.
"151 points? Is this hat broken?"
"Heh heh, am I dreaming?"
"I remember the previous highest score was the Dean's 41 points, right?"
"Let alone 151 points, hasn't even 100 points appeared before?"
"Could he really be a genius?"
"Genius my foot, use your pig brain and think properly, have you seen this person?"
"A perfect score of 151 points, you haven't even seen him, how does he know your identity!"
"Oh……"
"I remember, when this person came to the castle yesterday, Full Moon Dean personally received him!"
"What? Doesn't that mean……"
"A setup, correct, this must be a setup!"
"This is a setup the Academy cooked up to swallow the second round's rewards!"
"……"
On the assessment platform, Big Boss wore the cap, his signature sunshine smile still on his face.
Professor Tifeng stood beside him, stroking his beard, glancing at him.
Professor Tifeng's evaluation of Big Boss was—quite complex.
He clearly had combat power far beyond his peers, yet insisted on doing these disgraceful things.
He clearly had noble character, yet insisted on doing these feather-ruining things.
He clearly might be a legendary Returner, yet insisted on doing these things……
"Sigh." Tifeng sighed: "Unfathomable, unfathomable, perhaps this is just a genius's quirk."
Originally, Tifeng didn't need to appear today, but Big Boss pretending to be an examiner was too disgraceful, so he was forced onto the stage.
Otherwise, Full Moon Queen, worried her Apprentice Disciple wouldn't make it off the assessment platform alive……
The candidates' noise lasted about five minutes, as the scene gradually cooled, Professor Tifeng glanced at the little one beside him and stepped forward: "Everyone, there is no setup in this round's exam, the assessment cap made no mistake, Big Boss's score is indeed 151 points."
"Impossible!"
As soon as Tifeng finished speaking, the candidate who had mocked Big Boss yesterday stepped forward: "Professor, I can affirm, I have never seen this person in the Forbidden Magic Forest, how could he know my identity!"
"Me too!"
"Me too, I didn't meet a single candidate along the way, let alone him!"
"I swear on my ex-boyfriend's qianzi, I absolutely haven't seen this person!"
"Correct, I swear too, I haven't seen him!"
"Wait, this thing called Big Boss, did he sell you qianzi, so he got our identity badges?"
"Selling qianzi, hiss, well, it really is possible, I see this Big Boss still has charm……"
Although the candidates present no longer had promotion pressure, scores were after all the most important thing in student days.
Once scores and rankings were involved, it was impossible to remain completely indifferent.
Moreover, those who could enter the second round assessment were originally geniuses from various cities and magic schools.
The self-esteem and desire to win they had cultivated since childhood allowed them to fail, but absolutely not to lose to a "qianzi-connection insider."
This was a stain on their efforts.
"There is no setup in the second round assessment, Big Boss didn't get any of your information from us." Professor Tifeng held his hands out, glanced at the smiling little one, and sighed: "All his actions also did not violate the exam rules."
"As for selling qianzi……please believe, Full Moon Academy is not an evil church from a literary youth novel, and has no interest in little boys or black silk little boys."
"Then how did he know my identity!" Mu cried with a woebegone face and stood up: "Big Boss Li Cheng clearly never looked at my identity badge!"
At this moment, Big Boss became Li Cheng Da Ren again.
"Right, Brother Cheng also never looked at my identity badge." Karenina tilted her head.
"So, it's still a leak, right?" Another candidate gritted his teeth: "Since no one sold qianzi……oh, I understand, Big Boss must have sold his big meat! He was groomed by his teacher——"
"Noisy!" Before that candidate finished speaking, Full Moon Queen narrowed her eyes.
The candidate's mouth was frozen shut.
Full Moon Queen used a silence spell on him, in the physical sense.
But this scene had a hint of trying to cover up and only making it more obvious, and the candidates' doubts grew more and more.
"Sigh, alright alright, I'll explain it to you." Professor Tifeng sighed again: "How Big Boss knew your identity badges."
Speaking, he stroked his beard again.
Immediately, the visual projection behind him began playing the screen.
On the screen, the Chief Examiner sat in the preparation room, meticulously handing out identity badges to each candidate, while registering names on two books as he distributed them.
Mu, Xiu Si, Tal, Karenina……each received their identity badge and respectfully walked into the Teleportation Gate.
The video played at fifteen times speed, so it finished quickly.
And all the candidates showed inexplicable expressions.
"No, isn't this just our second round exam process?"
"What does this have to do with Big Boss?"
"I remember this Chief Examiner, he took my progress……oh no, he protected us!"
"Could it be... Li Cheng is hiding in the Chief Examiner's ditch?"
"You motherfucker, do you have a beef with ditch literature or what?"
"..."
"Still haven't figured out the problem?" Tifeng sighed. "Did you recognize Li Cheng in the footage?"
"No... Could it be Li Cheng didn't enter the exam hall?" The candidates were doubtful.
"No, he entered. Every frame, every second, he was in the footage." Tifeng sighed again.
"Then, then where is he..."
"Sigh, the Chief Examiner in the footage..." Tifeng adjusted his tone. "Is Li Cheng."
"Before the competition began, he infiltrated the Chief Examiner's residence, attacked the Chief Examiner, and copied his face, participating in this exam in the guise of the Chief Examiner."
As his words fell, the visual projection also played the footage of Li Cheng impersonating the Chief Examiner.
But to protect the Chief Examiner's face, to keep him from social death, everything that happened in the restroom was cut out, leaving only the final shot of Li Cheng putting on the mask.
Then came the footage of Li Cheng swaggering into the preparation room, distributing identity badges.
To increase persuasiveness, the director teacher even specially spliced in the footage of Li Cheng collecting the Progress Fund during the assessment.
The footage finished playing very quickly.
And the entire venue fell dead silent.
All the clamor, all the questioning were gone.
Everyone stared woodenly at those images, lips trembling, yet not a single word could be spoken.
"Then... you've already gotten the answers you wanted." Tifeng sighed yet again. "Now I announce! Assessment settlement!"
"You're lucky, everyone qualifies for enrollment, and the top 40 in ranking can enter the third round assessment, the Abyss Secret Realm! To vie for this exam's valedictorian!"
Speaking, on the visual projection behind him, everyone's scores appeared in succession.
And Li Cheng's 151 points became the undisputed first place.
Not just first place of this session, but first place in history!
Moreover, this score, I'm afraid for the next thousand years, ten thousand years, no one will break it.
After all, the rule "prohibiting attacking examiners" has already been written into the enrollment regulations.
And correspondingly, everyone else's scores decreased by 1 point, and their rankings all dropped back one place.
The candidate originally ranked 40th, who could enter the third round assessment, wanted to cry but had no tears.
Immediately, curses exploded in the examination hall: "Motherfucking cheating! This is blatant cheating!"
"Asked you to take the exam, you motherfucker came to be the examiner?"
"I fuck your ********"
"Originally thought Karenina was already outrageous enough, didn't expect there's an even higher master?"
"I don't accept it, I don't accept it! I already made it into the third round!"
This batch of candidates believed Li Cheng was an even more outrageous Dong Xi than Karenina.
They were staunch Anti-Cheng Faction.
But simultaneously, a portion of candidates also calmed down.
"Hmm, what Li Cheng did indeed didn't violate the assessment rules..."
"Right, dealing with the Abyss never relies solely on Term Art, wisdom is equally important."
"The Abyss excels in power, humans excel in wisdom, crushed by Li Cheng's IQ, I'm convinced."
"Unprecedented, never to be repeated, brothers!"
"Full Moon Dean could get 41 points because her capability at the time could only get 41 points! And Li Cheng got 151 points because the perfect score is only 151 points!"
"Those raging brothers, I feel you're too extreme, we're witnessing a miracle, you shouldn't be so narrow-minded."
This batch of candidates believed Brother Li Cheng possessed amazing wisdom that made one's heart chill.
They were staunch Pro-Cheng Faction.
The "Anti-Cheng Faction" thought the "Pro-Cheng Faction" had something wrong with their heads, a bunch of crazies.
And the "Pro-Cheng Faction" thought the "Anti-Cheng Faction" were a bunch of stubborn, incorrigible people.
Thus, the Anti-Cheng Faction and Pro-Cheng Faction started quarreling below the exam platform.
But worldviews between people differ after all, wanting to make the other accept your worldview is incredibly difficult.
As time passed, the two factions' quarreling evolved from reasoning at the start into pure profanity showdowns.
"You learned magic from selling ditches!"
"You got your exam qualification from selling ditches!!"
Seeing Full Moon Academy about to become Ditch Academy, Professor Tifeng furrowed his brow.
Dignified Full Moon Academy candidates, actually cursing the streets like shrews, what kind of decorum is this!
But, the impact of Li Cheng's matter was truly too great, let alone the candidates, even he, Tifeng, found it somewhat unbearable.
If not for knowing Li Cheng's operation in advance, he'd probably have to eat a pile of quick-acting heart pills right now.
If he didn't let these candidates keep cursing, they'd probably develop knots in their hearts, which during Abyss confrontations would easily be exploited by the opponent, absolutely unacceptable.
Cursing wasn't right, not cursing wasn't right either, Professor Tifeng felt very troubled.
He sighed, looked at Li Cheng: "How about, you go back to the dorm first, avoid the limelight. Also, not allowed to do this kind of thing again in the future, you clearly could get valedictorian relying on your own strength, why do you have to be so..."
Tifeng thought for half a day, still didn't say the word 'outrageous'.
"Understood, Professor." Li Cheng showed his trademark sunshine smile, then deliberately added: "Right, I want to go back together with my friend Mu."
"Mu?"
Tifeng blanked for a moment, then immediately looked toward the stage below, only to see the War God's Son currently lying on the ground, carefully crawling toward the outside of the crowd.
He seemed to want to utilize this noisy chaos, taking advantage of no one paying attention to him, to escape his social death fate.
"Hiss, War God's Son... that's actually a pretty good choice."
Tifeng stroked his beard, a surge of joy rising in his heart.
He had thought of a method to end this verbal battle.
What else could unite everyone more effectively than finding a common enemy for the two factions?
Thus, he cleared his throat, cast an Amplification Technique on himself, and declared loudly: "Huh? Isn't that Mu? What are you doing squatting on the ground?"
As his words fell, the candidates' quarreling came to an abrupt stop.
Immediately after, everyone's gazes all turned toward Mu lying on the ground.
Locked in by these gazes, Mu's face tightened, his just-recovered eyes flashing a fearful gray.
He felt that something even more terrifying was about to happen.
The next second——
"Hahaha, isn't that that trash brother?"
"Right, didn't he say he'd definitely be first?"
"Hahaha, 14 points, a mere 14 points, yet he still dared to think he was invincible?"
"Wow, he even called us all trash, who knows who the real trash is!"
"Tsk tsk tsk tsk, you think this Mu wouldn't have passed the First Round Assessment by selling Qianzi, would he!"
"Hmm, I think it's very possible."
In a moment, the "Pro-Cheng Faction" and "Anti-Cheng Faction" who had just been quarreling with each other formed a unified front, launching an all-out, no-dead-angle fierce output against Mu.
As they unleashed their output, Mu's body curled up little by little, the joy of living completely gone from his eyes.
Let destruction come, I'm tired.
Thinking this, Mu gradually turned into a stone statue.
And on the other side of the Examination Hall, on the VIP Seats, War God Bas was likewise standing rigid like a stone statue.
He hugged his head, hehehe-ing with a foolish grin, unable to utter a single word.
It's over, completely over.
This unfilial son Mu has thrown away all the face of the Bas family.
Bas could already imagine the scene when he brought Mu back to the clan, his old man — Mu's grandfather — pulling out the Seven Matches Wolf.
Mu fears being whipped by Bas, but Bas also fears being whipped by Old Ba Si! The Full Moon Dean and the Legendaries looked at each other, all involuntarily revealing smirks.
Normally, they've suffered no end of torture from these chuunibyou criminals of the Bas family; seeing them suffer social death, they're all delighted.
"Ah, truly didn't expect, the Second Round Assessment record actually reached 151 points; I'm afraid for the next ten thousand years, no one will be able to break this record, right?" The Furnace Archbishop said with a smile: "Li Cheng ah Li Cheng, this is the wisdom of a genius."
"Indeed, he single-handedly brought the Second Round Assessment to heights that don't belong to this round of assessment." The Order High Priest also smiled.
After this round of assessment, the Legendaries had no more objections toward Li Cheng.
If Li Cheng had no strength and only got such a score through petty tricks, they would still despise it.
But the problem is, in the Second Round Assessment, Li Cheng consecutively defeated a Magic Dragon Believer and a Dragon Avatar, two powerful enemies, proving not only his talent but also his hard strength.
He is a genuine genius, highly likely the Son of Destiny who will bury the Abyss in the future.
With this condition factored in, the Legendaries had no objections whatsoever to Li Cheng ambushing the Chief Examiner.
It's not that he can't get first place through strength; ambushing the Chief Examiner is just more cost-effective! Without extraordinary measures, how could he be worthy of being called a genius! Liu Li watched those Legendaries who are usually strict beyond measure, walking around with stink faces every day, now showing such expressions, and felt indescribable delight in her heart.
My Lord Liu Li is so amazing~ She pushed her glasses, licked her mouth corner, smiled cunningly, and secretly left the spectator seats.
Not much time left, she needs to go prepare properly.
Tonight, she must make Lord Liu Li...
Suck dry!
