My Abilities Come with Special Effects

Chapter 24

Combat Power (1)

The next day, at the venue of the Monthly First Evaluation.

After all the disciples of Wu Yard for the past two months had been assessed, Pang Yinlong shouted as usual, “Are there any disciples who wish to be assessed in advance?”

As soon as he finished speaking, Mi Tai strode out. “Master, I want to take the assessment in advance!”

Pang Yinlong nodded at him with a smile. “Mi Tai, you can’t call me Master before you enter Wei Yard. Remember to call me Master next time. Let me ask you, you’ve only been in Wu Yard for more than 20 days. Are you really going to take the assessment?”

“Exactly!”

“Good! Ambitious!”

Pang Yinlong praised him with a smile and personally painted a dragon pattern on Mi Tai.

After the dragon pattern was finished, Mi Tai walked into the arena with his head held high and practiced the Five Animal Hands Technique smoothly.

“It has changed! It has really changed!”

“This is crazy! How can he reach such a realm after just entering the sect for twenty days?”

“F*ck, I’ve been practicing for two months and I haven’t even reached the threshold. Comparisons are infuriating!”

When Mi Tai was done, Pang Yinlong, Pang Meng, and Du Fushan revealed satisfied smiles.

“Mi Tai, qualified as ordinary! However, he participated in the Monthly First Evaluation two months in advance. His result has increased by two grades and he’s been promoted to the special grade!”

There were a total of three levels in the assessment: ordinary, excellent, and special grade. They were evaluated based on the degree of change in color and the assessment time.

In Dragon Gate Pavilion, there would always be an excellent student every few months, but there might not even be one special student in a year.

Moreover, only special grade students were qualified to participate in the Dragon Yard assessment.

Mi Tai was in high spirits. “Thank you, Master!”

In the eyes of the surrounding disciples of Wu Yard and even Wei Yard, there was shock, admiration, jealousy, and bitterness. Even two disciples of the Dragon Yard who usually did not appear had come today.

Pang Yinlong did not stop him this time. He continued, “Who will be taking the test next?”

Mi Tai’s gaze was unscrupulous as he glanced at the other people in Wu Yard. The disdain in his eyes was undisguised. “Don’t tell me you guys don’t dare?”

Those people were all young people. They couldn’t hold it in anymore.

“I, I’ll participate!”

“And me!”

Two people came up in a row. They were both disciples from the same batch as Lin Yan and were quite outstanding in Wu Yard.

However, after the two of them practiced, the crowd booed.

“What are you trying to do?”

“That’s right. With this standard, he’s inferior to me. How dare he go on stage?”

After watching the two of them practice, Pang Yinlong shook his head repeatedly. “Not qualified! Don’t be so competitive. Go back and practice again!”

The two of them blushed and quickly ran away.

“Anyone else?”

The few people who were indignant just now all gave up and did not dare to try again.

Mi Tai’s gaze swept across the crowd and landed on Yu Qian. His pupils dilated slightly. “Senior Sister Yu Qian, aren’t you going to give it a try? I joined the sect a month later than you and passed the assessment.”

Yu Qian was furious. “I’ll give it a try!”

She came from a rich family and was beautiful. She had never suffered any grievances since she was young.

In the past few days, Mi Tai had been provoking her, which made her furious.

She entered the venue angrily.

Perhaps it was because of Mi Tai’s stimulation, Yu Qian was especially engrossed in her training this time. The more she practiced, the smoother she felt. Gradually, she was completely immersed and did not think about anything else.

Pang Yinlong raised his eyebrows slightly. “Eh, she actually made a breakthrough at the last minute!”

As she practiced, Yu Qian’s entire body trembled. Her skin instantly flushed red and then slowly faded.

When Yu Qian came back to her senses, the people around her exclaimed.

“It’s changed!”

“It has also changed!”

“She participated in the assessment a month in advance. Doesn’t that mean she’s excellent?”

Yu Qian was pleasantly surprised to find that the dragon patterns on her arm had also changed color.

Pang Yinlong smiled and said, “Yu Qian, you passed the test normally, but you have taken the test a month in advance. Your result will be raised by one grade. You have passed as excellent!”

Yu Qian didn’t expect that she would be able to pass. Her face flushed red as she said excitedly, “Thank you, Pavilion Master!”

She turned around to look at Mi Tai, only to see that Mi Tai was also shocked. She could not help but snort and turn her head away.

Pang Yinlong coughed a few times. “Is anyone else coming?”

The surrounding disciples fell silent. No one dared to step forward.

Just as everyone thought it was about to end, they saw Pang Yinlong frown slightly. He raised his voice and continued to shout, “Is there anyone else who wants to take the assessment in advance?!”

Everyone was at a loss. They did not know why the Pavilion Master repeated it.

Pang Yinlong looked around, but there were too many people, so he couldn’t see where Lin Yan was.

He said loudly, “The Five Animal Hands is only a body-nourishing martial art. Even if you cultivate it to an extremely high realm and grasp the true form, the effect after your blood energy transforms will be similar.

“Therefore, if you can pass the assessment, you have to pass it as soon as possible. Spend your time and energy on more important cultivation techniques. That’s the most important thing!”

The surrounding disciples were even more confused.

All the disciples present understood what Pavilion Master Pang said.

Therefore, the more special geniuses like Mi Tai did not care about the realm of the Five Animal Hands Technique. After their blood energy transformed, it would be the main battlefield for them to exert their strength.

However, Pavilion Master Pang’s words clearly meant something. Could it be that there was still a disciple in Wu Yard who could pass the assessment in advance but did not participate?

Pang Yinlong waited for a moment before exchanging glances with Pang Meng.

Pang Meng understood and stood up to cough.

“Lin Yan! Lin Yan!”

Lin Yan!

The disciples of Wu Yard looked at each other.

Some disciples did not know Lin Yan, while others only knew that Wu Yard had such a disciple. He was talented, but he was very solitary and rarely appeared in the martial arts arena.

Yu Qian, Mi Tai, and a few other disciples who were in the same batch as Lin Yan were all shocked. They didn’t understand why Pang Meng called Lin Yan.
