Chapter 105 Three People Who Passed the Assessment

What the assessment entailed was seldom revealed by Liangzhou University. It was usually decided on the spot, and for ten years no N-level student had gained admission to Liangzhou University. Given the high bar set by the university, it was impossible that they would disclose the content of the assessment to Xiang Beifei in advance.

In other words, even if Xiang Beifei asked anything, Ye Changfeng wouldn't say much. Find your next adventure on m_v l|e-NovelBin.net

Xiang Beifei simply continued to look at Ye Changfeng. His words were always brief, avoiding any superfluous talk.

Ye Changfeng noticed that the youth was guarded in front of him, remaining calm and collected, speaking in his own way without saying anything extra just because Ye was a teacher at Liangzhou University.

This made things very difficult!

He couldn't help but glance at the long sword by his side.

The sword light briefly shimmered.

No progress at all?

After pondering for a moment, Ye Changfeng spoke again, "Regardless, I still need to clarify the situation at Liangzhou University for you, so you'll be mentally prepared for the admission assessment."

"Please do," Xiang Beifei said.

Ye Changfeng paused, then continued, "In the history of Liangzhou University, only three N-level Awakeners have passed the admission assessment, and the last time we admitted an N-level student was ten years ago."

"Three of them, not bad at all."

"It's not like that," Ye Changfeng shook his head, and added, "The highest official of Liangzhou, Shang Tianxiong, was the first one. But in fact, back then Liangzhou University did not admit N-level students, and for him, it was only an exception."

"Is that so?" Xiang Beifei's reply was short.

Ye Changfeng watched Xiang Beifei impartially, trying to see what he might ask, but Xiang Beifei's expression was calm and steady.

The sword beside him remained still; it couldn't discern anything about Xiang Beifei's situation.

After some thought, Ye Changfeng decided to say a bit more.

The more he spoke, the more likely Xiang Beifei might react, allowing Ye to observe something.

"When Shang Tianxiong was younger, he saved one of our university's teachers. That year, a beast tide erupted, breaching the outer defenses of the Jiuzhou Alliance, and our university's teachers were ordered to resist the desolate beasts. However, one teacher was injured by a powerful desolate beast. He managed to escape back but went unnoticed by everyone preoccupied with the desolate beasts."

"It was Shang Tianxiong who rescued him in time. After the beast tide was repelled and the alliance stabilized, the Liangzhou University teacher felt indebted to Shang Tianxiong. So, he lobbied the university's high-level officials and secured him an opportunity to undergo the entrance assessment."

"Yet, since Liangzhou University is an elite institution that normally only admits R-level Awakeners, letting him in through the back door would be unfair to other N-level Awakeners and could negatively impact the school. Consequently, a rule was amended, setting the minimum college entrance examination score for N-level students at 680 points. Anyone scoring 680 could apply for Liangzhou University and participate in the entrance assessment."

Ye Changfeng stared at Xiang Beifei.

After all, Xiang Beifei's score this year was 732 points, far exceeding the 680 point threshold. Even among the many S-level Awakeners in Jiuzhou with the "Scholar System," none had a higher score than him.

In Ye Changfeng's opinion, it was quite impressive.

"This rule was modified for Shang Tianxiong, but he still had to follow it to get into Liangzhou University. He spent three full years repeating his studies to achieve the 680 points! And he didn't pass the first assessment. After another year, he scored 689 points and with a year of guidance from that teacher, he finally passed the entrance assessment."

Ye Changfeng detailed Shang Tianxiong's situation to Xiang Beifei, also wanting to convey that even for someone like Shang Tianxiong, gaining admission to Liangzhou University took immense effort and assistance from influential figures.

His fingers tapped gently on his thigh, waiting for Xiang Beifei to ask a question.

Xiang Beifei remained in a thoughtful pose, like an attentive listener, showing no stance.

——He really knows how to keep his cool.

Ye Changfeng thought to himself and continued speaking:

"After Shang Tianxiong, an N-level student, got into Liangzhou University, his success inspired many N-level Awakeners. Many N-level students took him as a model, working hard to improve their academics. Quite a few scored the required 680 points, but without exception, they all failed the entrance assessment, just like Shang Tianxiong in his first year."

"Later, after Shang Tianxiong graduated, he stayed on as a university teacher. A few other N-level Awakeners then sought to attend Liangzhou University, and Shang Tianxiong was in charge of their entrance assessments. Meaning, the second and third N-level Awakeners who entered Liangzhou University did so because Shang Tianxiong turned a blind eye."

"However, both of these individuals were flashes in the pan. One of the N-level Awakeners couldn't keep up with the pace of Liangzhou University's curriculum and dropped out after two years of study. This incident had some repercussions at the time and served as a warning to those N-level candidates who wished to try for Liangzhou University."

Ye Changfeng looked meaningfully at Xiang Beifei.

"So, are you here to discourage me today?" Xiang Beifei asked.

He finally reacted!

It wasn't easy to get you to talk more.

Ye Changfeng smiled and said, "Not at all, I know your father, and therefore, I have expectations for you as well. I just want to inform you that Shang Tianxiong had the help of influential people, and the other two N-level Awakeners had the assistance of Shang Tianxiong. So in the school history of Liangzhou University, we've admitted three N-level Awakeners."

"But ten years ago, Shang Tianxiong no longer served as a teacher at Liangzhou University and opted to work in the alliance instead. Since then, he hasn't been in charge of Liangzhou University's entrance assessments, and in the past ten years, not a single N-level Awakener has made it through."

Xiang Beifei nodded thoughtfully.

In the school history of Liangzhou University, the three N-level Awakeners could more or less be said to have entered the university through the assistance of influential figures. At least Shang Tianxiong had the capability; he took advantage of his opportunity and made tremendous achievements through his own efforts.

But the next two N-level Awakeners faced entrance assessments overseen by Shang Tianxiong himself; being N-level as well, Shang Tianxiong certainly empathized with them and likely lowered the difficulty of the assessments.

However, Xiang Beifei's current situation was that he not only lacked help, but the person responsible for his assessment was also an old adversary of his father!

The entrance assessments for the other three N-level Awakeners had reduced difficulty, but his was made more challenging!

Ye Changfeng waited for Xiang Beifei to inquire, even thinking to himself that Xiang Beifei might try to ingratiate himself. After all, he knew Xiang Tianxing, and any person with such a connection would likely seize the opportunity to say a few kind words, hoping that he too could become their benefactor.

But Xiang Beifei didn't do so, rather, he continued watching Ye Changfeng politely, neither fawning nor resisting.
