Chapter 129 - Qin Feng was Dead Last (1/2)
Li Yaoyao was surrounded by her peers. They were chatting feverishly.
“Here come the new recruits of the abilities cla.s.s.”
“Is Qin Feng with them?”
“Perhaps. However, despite being an outstanding ancient warrior, he may not be an ability user in equal.”
“Yet I heard that his conscious energy level is off the charts. He can even use telekinesis!”
“Is that so? Nonetheless, ability user or not, he would still make a formidable teammate. Our university is going to take the first place for sure this time!”
Lee Yaoyao was looking dejected. ‘Too bad we are not in the same year. Or else, I could join him at the Spring Hunting Ground this time and mend our relations.h.i.+p.’
In the middle of the square, the headmaster of Chengbei University, Deng Nian, had once again taken the center stage.
“This evaluation depends greatly on what kind of teammates you manage to recruit. There’s only one way to gather strong allies, which is by having considerable strength yourself. Thus, I hope you will give it your best and bring out everything you have learned in the past month. Don’t be shy to demonstrate the best of your abilities in front of the crowd!”
“Now, we welcome the first cla.s.s of the 69th batch to showcase their talent!”
The first cla.s.s would undoubtedly be the abilities cla.s.s.
Qin Feng walked down the partic.i.p.ant seats and was ushered to the square with the others.
Cheng Chao was standing beside them, and he announced proudly and spiritedly, “Release the runes!”
It was like this had been rehea.r.s.ed multiple times. The students standing beside Cheng Chao became serious and triggered their strong conscious energy to unleash the runes stored within them.
The released runes covered their masters and beamed in different colors.
Their cla.s.s rep, Zhao Yu, was the one with the best rune affinity. She scored A in that category, meaning that Zhao Yu was capable of absorbing fifteen runes in ten minutes and ninety runes in an hour. However, restricted by her consciousness, the maximum time Zhao Yu could perform meditation and absorb runes was capped at two hours per day.
Besides, concentrated runes usually came with a hefty cost. The efficacy would plummet further if one were sensing and harvesting runes that dispersed freely in the surrounding.
Even so, Zhao Yu had still attained more than one thousand runes in one-month. She also now possessed three G-tier fire abilities.
Zhao Yu was the student closest to G-tier in the entire cla.s.s. She was no doubt a destined prodigy.
She would be the sole spotlight of the 69th batch if Qin Feng had not emerged.
Buzz!
The red-colored runes climbed above one meter high and surpa.s.sed everyone on the stage. Her red runes were the most eye-catching among the color palette.
She was the undisputable first in her cla.s.s.
Aside from her, there was another alien among them. Naturally, that would be Qin Feng.
He had not taken part in the cla.s.s before and knew nothing about the details of this exhibition. Hence, he was one step behind everyone else.
Qin Feng realized what he had to do only when others had already pushed to their limits to ascend their runes.
‘I see. So we are asked to demonstrate our runes? I better not reveal too much about my ability.’
Qin Feng would not be shy of flexing his muscles on other occasions but his dark flame would stand out too much amidst the orange-red flames of other students.
As such, Qin Feng only slightly activated the most basic level of fire runes and appeared unpromising.
He was on the other extreme end as compared to Zhao Yu so he ended up with the same amount of attention from the audience.
“Ah, why is Qin Feng’s rune so timid in size?”
“I heard that he has a low affinity to begin with. Moreover, he seldom attended cla.s.s. That explains his subpar ability.”
“That’s truly unexpected. So he is mediocre after all.”
Cheng Chao felt helpless seeing that Qin Feng had become the center of attention.
Qin Feng’s affinity was only at G-tier, which was lower than most ability students.
