Chapter 209 - Special Exam
Chapter 209: Special Exam
Earth, east of the Eurasia Continent, northwest of the original location of Huaxia.
Up until more than 600 years ago, this was still the largest desert in Huaxia. There was no one for hundreds of kilometers.
Later on, after the federation introduced the most cutting-edge environmental technology of the United States of Melaita and underwent decades of environmental modification, this place had already completely changed.
Even though it was early winter in the northern hemisphere of Earth, as far as the eye could see, large patches of green could still be seen, looking lively.
In the forest, there was an extremely large and loose cluster of buildings.
This large building complex was the main campus of the number one academy in the federation, Star Cloud Academy.
Due to the upcoming annual entrance test of Star Cloud Academy, although the current students were still on holiday, the teachers and other staff were the busiest. Many figures and single floating shuttles could still be seen in the huge academy. It did not seem cold at all.
In a three-story building in the southeast corner of the district, Sun Xiangren gently exhaled. He leaned back in the soft chair and gently rubbed his eyes as he moved his body to relieve the fatigue brought about by continuous work.
The entrance examination was about to begin. As the dean of the Star Cloud Academy’s Martial Arts Branch, Sun Xiangren had a lot of work to deal with. He could not even hand it to his subordinates to deal with.
The most important thing in these jobs was naturally to ensure that the entrance examination was carried out steadily.
Unlike the other branches of Star Cloud Academy, the entrance test of the Martial Arts Branch was completely different from the main written test of the other academies. It was more like a combat test.
Since it was an actual battle, it would always be dangerous.
He had to ensure that this test was not only practical, but also considered the safety of the examinees participating in the test. It was a huge test of the standards of the higher-ups in the Martial Arts Branch who were responsible for arranging the test.
Sun Xiangren had been in charge of this work for 13 years before this, guaranteeing that there had never been any major accidents in the entrance examination of the Star Cloud Academy’s martial arts branch in these 13 years. It could be said that his work was extremely outstanding.
However, he still did not dare to guarantee that there would be no mistakes in this entrance examination. Therefore, he was still carefully prepared and did not allow any mistakes.
Just as he was thinking about what else had not been arranged, a person suddenly pushed open the office door and walked in.
Hearing the voice, Sun Xiangren opened his eyes and discovered that this person was his deputy, the Deputy Director of the Martial Arts Branch, Zhao Zhiming.
“Old Sun, the list has been calculated. Take a look.” Zhao Zhiming operated his personal terminal, and a long form appeared on the virtual screen of the office.
“Alright, it’s fine as long as you’re done. What’s there to see?” Sun Xiangren waved his hand.
This list was calculated from the initial test results of the various residential planets in the federation. There were more than 4,300 names. If he were to read them one by one, he would really be exhausted.
“Just pull out the list of people you’ve placed in the focus of observation and let me see them. The rest doesn’t matter.”
“I knew you would say that.”
Zhao Zhiming and Sun Xiangren had been colleagues for so many years, so how could he not know the other party’s style? He smiled and operated his personal terminal. The other one was much shorter. At a glance, the list of 20 to 30 names appeared on the virtual screen.
“Let me see…”
Only then did Sun Xiangren become energetic. He stood up and glanced at those names and the notes behind them.
“Hmm… That’s right. They’re all famous young geniuses from all over the world. The fact that they’re willing to register for our Star Cloud Academy is enough to prove our status. Eh?”
Sun Xiangren suddenly revealed a trace of surprise.
“Tackle Planet, Feng Mingxi? Could it be that Feng family’s fourth child?”
“Yes, it’s him.” Zhao Zhiming nodded.
“Why is he here?” Sun Xiangren looked at that name with a puzzled expression, “Instead of obediently cultivating their family’s ultimate technique in the Feng family, why did he come to our Star Cloud Academy?”
“About that…” Zhao Zhiming’s expression was extremely strange, “I’ve sent people to inquire. It’s said that this kid has always been rebellious. He was unwilling to accept his family’s arrangements since he was young and only liked to find those unknown martial techniques to cultivate. However, he cultivated very well and was called the most outstanding genius of the Feng family’s current generation by many people. He probably came to register for our academy this time to further prove himself.”
“Heh, this kid’s talent is so outstanding. If he had obediently learned the Feng family’s ultimate technique, his current achievements would only be higher.” Sun Xiangren shook his head, clearly not agreeing with this, “If I were Supremacy Feng Nanshan, I would probably be angered to death by this little grandson.”
“No…” Zhao Zhiming’s expression became even stranger, “From the information I’ve gathered, Supremacy Feng Nanshan has never expressed any objections to Feng Mingxi’s actions.”
“No way?” Sun Xiangren was in disbelief, “Could it be that he’s just watching his talented grandson waste time?”
“It can’t be considered a waste.” Zhao Zhiming pointed at the name Feng Mingxi on the virtual screen, “Look, this kid is not even 18 years old this year, but he’s already a fifth-stage Internal Breath Martial Artist. Moreover, it’s said that he’s already preparing to break through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate.”
“Doesn’t this prove that his talent is shocking?” Sun Xiangren shook his head in pity, “If he had been cultivating the Feng family’s ultimate technique, he might have already broken through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate.”
After a pause, Sun Xiangren continued, “Forget it. Since he’s willing to come to our academy, we’ll nurture him well. We can’t waste his talent.”
“It seems that you’ve already confirmed that he’ll pass the test and become a student of our academy.” Zhao Zhiming smiled and slid his finger down to place it on another name. “However, before that, you have to pay attention to this name.”
Seeing this name, Sun Xiangren’s expression suddenly changed.
“Angie Prairie? Oh my god, why would Supremacy Oville let her apply to our academy?!”
Zhao Zhiming smiled bitterly and shrugged, “I can’t find out the reason. I’m afraid I can only ask after she comes.”
Sun Xiangren’s expression changed several times before finally calming down.
“Alright, with the descendants and disciples of these two Star-Grade Martial Artists participating in this test, it’s more helpful in further increasing the reputation of our Star Cloud Academy.”
After saying that, Sun Xiangren continued to read the list.
Although there were many young martial artists who were already famous in the next dozen or so people, compared to Feng Mingxi and Angie Prairie, they could not shock Sun Xiangren anymore.
“Is that all? Let me see, there are a total of 37. Alright, since you picked them, add them to the list of people who need to be secretly observed,” Sun Xiangren said to Zhao Zhiming after reading.
Zhao Zhiming’s expression was a little hesitant. He thought for a moment and said hesitantly, “Apart from these 37 people, there’s another name. I don’t know if I should add it…”
Sun Xiangren looked at him in confusion.
Zhao Zhiming was responsible for this job every year. It had been 11 years since then, so what else could he not confirm?
“Who is it?”
“Chu Nan.”
“Chu Nan?” Sun Xiangren frowned and suddenly raised his eyebrows, “You mean… that Chu Nan?”
“Yes, it’s that Chu Nan.”
