C35 (1/2)
Sun Yue? Hearing Sun Yue's name, Bai Chen couldn't help but be surprised. This Sun Yue was Bai Lintian's master, and Bai Lintian hated him to the bones. He was afraid that he would take the opportunity to wear some small shoes for him.
”Cao Qi, Xiao Fei, Bai Chen, the three of you have performed exceptionally well. This time around, the academy will reward the three of you.”
Mu Yuting was still cold as she spoke. All of the students' gazes turned towards the three of them with a ”swoosh”. Their eyes were filled with jealousy and envy. However, this name list was still rather objective, so the students below kept quiet after some discussion.
Bai Chen felt a surge of excitement in his heart. One had to know that it was extremely difficult to obtain Spirit Stones in Canghai Academy. Three hundred Spirit Stones would be of great help to one's cultivation.
Yan Le and Zhang Fu patted Bai Chen's shoulder, happy for him.
To the south of Canghai Academy was a row of tall buildings that were hidden in the trees. This was the academy's meeting room, and anyone who had something important to discuss would come here.
In the afternoon, Mu Yuting brought the three of them to the academy's meeting room. An old man with a ferocious appearance was frowning as he looked at the list of names.
”Un, Bai Chen …” The old man raised his eyebrows as a trace of hostility flashed across his eyes. This old man was Canghai Academy's Vice Principal, Sun Yue.
Sitting opposite the old man was an old man with a head full of white hair. He raised his head to look at Sun Yue and chuckled, ”Vice Principal, this year's batch of new students have many talents. This is the fortune of our Canghai Academy.”
”Mm, not bad. Ever since Bai Lintian and Ye Ling, there haven't been any genius characters in our Canghai Academy for several years. This time, I hope that a genius character will appear.” Sun Yue nodded.
Canghai Academy played an important role in East Star Continent, even in the entire continent. Canghai Academy's status today depended on those geniuses, who were like brilliant pearls embedded in the history of the continent. This was how Canghai Academy became famous today.
As such, Canghai Academy had never spared no effort in their discovery and search for talents. This was also the reason why the dignified Vice Principal personally took the examination for outstanding students.
Bai Chen and the other two walked into the meeting room. The white moustached old man laughed, ”Senior Martial Brother Sun, they have come. I think the three of them have pretty good talent.”
Bai Chen and the other two quickly and respectfully greeted him, ”Vice Principal, white-browed elder.”
Sun Yue retracted his gaze from the list and looked at the three people in front of him. A trace of cold air unnoticeably flashed through his eyes.
”Bai Chen, Xiao Fei, Cao Qi, the three of you are the most outstanding students of this year. According to the academy's rules, each of you will receive a reward of 300 spirit stones.” Sun Yue frowned, ”However, if you want to obtain the spirit stone reward, you still have to pass through me.”
Bai Chen's gaze was directed at Xiao Fei, and Xiao Fei's sinister and complacent gaze was directed at him. The two of them looked at each other, and Bai Chen felt a chill in his heart. He had a feeling that something was wrong.
The white-browed elder smiled and said, ”The three of you are fortunate to be able to receive Vice President Sun's personal assessment today. This is a rare opportunity, you guys can also steal some moves, haha. ”
”Yes, we will definitely learn from the vice principal.” Xiao Fei respectfully said as he turned his head to look at Bai Chen with an evil grin.
Before coming here, Bai Chen had already heard from Zhang Fu that this examination was usually conducted by the academy's elders. This year, it was Sun Yue, the vice principal, who was taking the examination personally. At this moment, he felt apprehensive in his heart.
Sun Yue tapped the printed list with his finger, his gaze swept across the three of them, and then finally landed on Bai Chen as he lightly said, ”The three of you are all new students who have been admitted to the academy this year. If you can pass today's exam, you will only get the reward of 300 spirit stones.”
Bai Chen and the other two nodded their heads.
Sun Yue glanced at the white-browed elder. The white-browed elder stood up and kindly said, ”You three don't have to be nervous. According to the old rules, each of you can pass as long as you take a punch from me.”
Taking a punch from the white-browed elder?
Bai Chen and Cao Qi looked at each other with serious expressions on their faces. Through Zhang Fu's introduction, Bai Chen was very clear to most of the Elders in the academy that this white-browed elder was renowned throughout the academy. Back then, his strength was already at the peak of the Spirit Sect.
”Senior apprentice-brother Long-browed, let's fight.” Sun Yue urged impatiently.
The smile on the white-browed elder's face froze as he shouted to Xiao Fei who was at the front, ”Xiao Fei, receive my punch.” He clenched his fist tightly and suddenly punched Xiao Fei. On the surface, it was a simple punch, but it was filled with surging spiritual energy. A huge spiritual energy fluctuation came surging over and even Bai Chen and Cao Qi felt suppressed.
Xiao Fei did not dare to be slow as he lightly circulated his spirit energy to receive the blow. With a ”peng”, Xiao Fei's body swayed and almost fell to the ground. After that, he managed to stabilize himself with great difficulty with his face pale.
”Hahaha, not bad. He should be a Mid Rank Spirit Master.” The white-browed elder laughed. With just one move, he was able to see Xiao Fei's cultivation realm.
Xiao Fei's pale face revealed a happy expression as he received the punch from the white-browed elder. This meant that he had passed the test. He then looked towards Bai Chen and laughed coldly.
The white-browed elder didn't waste time talking and immediately threw a punch towards Cao Qi. His strength was great, and the strength in his fist was the limit of what Cao Qi could endure.
Cao Qi staggered and barely passed the assessment.
