Chapter 179: Leave the Test If You Lose
Chu Nan’s surroundings instantly became silent.
Including the examiner, everyone looked at the glass cup in Chu Nan’s hand in shock.
Before Chu Nan, many candidates had passed this test.
However, up until now, no one had passed through so easily and quickly like Chu Nan.
He looked as if he had casually picked up the glass cup. He did not pay attention to it, but the glass ball shattered just like that!
Everyone’s gazes focused on the glass cup and discovered that there were no cracks on the surface. The glass ball in it had shattered completely and turned into residue. The comparison was extremely obvious.
This situation undoubtedly displayed that Chu Nan’s control of his Internal Breath had reached an extremely precise level. It had even clearly surpassed the standard needed for this test.
This guy was indeed quite capable since he could defeat Maruk. Many people could not help but have this thought.
The examiner’s expression became even stranger. He took the glass cup from Chu Nan’s hand and looked at it for a long time before announcing that he had passed the test.
Chu Nan glanced at him deeply and stood up to leave.
According to the questions of the initial assessment announced by Star Cloud Academy, Chu Nan had actually passed all of them. Logically speaking, he had already obtained the qualifications to participate in the public test of Star Cloud Academy.
However, because there was a quota limit for the initial assessment of Star Cloud Academy, this did not mean that one would definitely obtain this quota after passing all four tests. It still had to be determined according to the situation of the test location.
If there were not enough candidates who had passed all four tests, then this was the rule.
However, if the examinees who passed all four tests exceeded this spot, they had to undergo the review selection.
This review test was decided by each test point according to their own situation.
According to the news announced by the Flowing Cloud Martial Arts Hall, after the results of the four tests were out, they would determine which method to use for the review according to the number of examinees who had passed the test.
Therefore, exam candidates like Chu Nan who had already passed all four tests did not leave immediately. Instead, they stayed here to wait for the results and see if a review test would appear and what method it would be.
Apart from that, although most of the examinees who had been eliminated previously left as soon as possible, many people still had the intention of watching the commotion.
Therefore, the morning passed. Although a large number of people had already left because of failure at the beginning, the Flowing Cloud Martial Arts Hall was still crowded.
When it was time to eat lunch, because the Flowing Cloud Martial Arts Hall was located in the northern suburbs of Sigma City, there was no place to eat nearby. People like Chu Nan who took the public shuttle could only be forced to squeeze in the canteen of the Flowing Cloud Martial Arts Hall to eat.
“Hmph! This Flowing Cloud Martial Arts Hall must have done it on purpose!” Chu Xiaoxi threw the tray on the empty seat that she had waited for with great difficulty with a resentful and dissatisfied expression, nearly throwing out the soup in the tray, “They deliberately did not announce the method of the review in advance just to make us buy food in this canteen. It’s so bad and so expensive! Too shameless!”
Chu Nan immediately laughed.
“Xiaoxi, you haven’t even eaten. Why do you say it tastes bad?”
“Of course it tastes bad. Look, these dishes look so ugly. It would be strange if they were delicious!” Chu Xiaoxi pointed at the plate and shouted rudely.
“About that…”
Chu Nan looked at the pitiful dishes on the plate that made people feel that they were ‘tragic’. He felt that it was indeed impossible to have much appetite because of them and could only nod in agreement.
However, the reason why Chu Xiaoxi was so angry was clearly not only because of these “tragic” dishes, but mainly because she had been eliminated in the test just now.
To Chu Nan’s surprise, Chu Xiaoxi had actually passed the first three steps of the test in a row. Her results were surprising.
However, in the fourth step of the test, which required an extremely high accumulation of Internal Breath Control, she was still disqualified in the end, causing her to not even have the qualifications to enter the review list.
This made Chu Xiaoxi very dissatisfied.
She originally knew that she had only practiced martial arts for more than a month, so it was obvious that she could not qualify to enter Star Cloud Academy. Therefore, she only had the intention to join in the fun and did not think of passing.
However, she had clearly passed the first three tests, but she was disqualified in the last one. It really made her feel very unwilling.
“Actually, Xiaoxi, you don’t have to be so anxious. If you can’t pass this year, come back next year. I feel that with your talent, a year is enough to make you much stronger than now. After you pass the test next year, you can go to Star Cloud Academy with me.” Chu Nan smiled and comforted her.
“I just…”
Chu Xiaoxi was about to speak when she was suddenly interrupted by a sneer.
“Heh, what a brag! You speak as if you can definitely enter Star Cloud Academy. Chu Nan, do you really think you’re invincible just because you defeated that tiny Maruk?”
The two of them turned around in surprise and saw a young man who was burly but not overly bulky. He was neither tall nor short and his entire body looked very well-proportioned. However, his head looked very awkward and uncoordinated because it was a little sharp.
There were more than ten young martial artists following behind him, looking like a group.
“Invincible?” Chu Nan glanced at him and shrugged, “I’ve never thought of it this way. Even if it’s a Star-Grade Martial Artist, no one really thinks they’re invincible, right?”
“Cut the crap.” The sharp-headed man stretched out a finger and pointed at Chu Nan bluntly, “Chu Nan, it’s clearly impossible for you to break through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate in the future, so why did you come to participate in this test?”
Chu Nan looked at him in amusement and shook his head.
“I’m sorry, I don’t understand your logic. Is there a connection between your two sentences?”
“Don’t act stupid here. Do you think everyone doesn’t understand? It’s just that they don’t say anything!” The sharp-headed man sneered, “Everyone knows that you won’t be able to break through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate in the future. You can’t even become a Void Break Martial Artist. In that case, why don’t you obediently become an ordinary person? Now, not only are you unwilling to be honest, you even came here to waste Star Cloud Academy’s precious spot. It’s simply shameful!”
“Oh?” Chu Nan put down the cutlery in his hand and looked at him seriously, “Firstly, the two Star-Grade Martial Artists only said that it’s almost impossible for me to break through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate in the future. They did not say that it’s completely impossible.”
“Nonsense!” The sharp-headed man sneered again.
Chu Nan ignored him and continued, “Secondly, even if I really can’t break through the Cosmic Heaven’s Gate in the future and become a Void Break Martial Artist, what has it got to do with me participating in the test? What’s shameful about that?”
“If I say you’re shameful, then you’re shameful! You’re not convinced?” The sharp-headed man raised his head with an arrogant expression.
Seeing his expression, Chu Nan suddenly laughed.
“Alright, stop beating around the bush. Tell me, what do you want?”
The sharp-headed man stretched out his finger and pointed at Chu Nan again.
“Fight me. If you lose, leave this test. You’re not allowed to apply to Star Cloud Academy in the future!”
“What if you lose?” Chu Nan smiled and asked.
“Since it’s a bet, of course it has to be fair. If I lose, I’ll be like you.”
“Yes, that’s quite fair. However, I just said that if you don’t have the confidence to defeat Maruk, it’s best not to challenge me. Do you have it?”
The pointy-headed man flipped his finger that was pointing at Chu Nan and pointed at himself with a proud expression.
“Brax, a fourth-stage Internal Breath Martial Artist. Do you think I have the confidence to defeat Maruk?”
“Very good.” Chu Nan smiled and stood up, “Then what are you waiting for? Come.”
