Chapter 102 - The team with the most plus signs

Just as the teacher stood up and was about to get the next student in after Lan Xuanyu was done, something shocking happened.

In the strength test apparatus, Lan Xuanyu seemed like he was unable to endure anymore but his eyes lit up suddenly and he gave out a powerful aura as he pursed his lips and pushed with all his might. Those metal walls that were closing in were actually pushed back to their original position just like that.

This…

One must know that the force of the metal walls closing in was always increasing and it was very rare to be able to push back after the walls had closed in!

During this process of the walls closing in and opening, two minutes had already gone by.

“It’s been two minutes ah!” There were low gasps around and the other students in the class began to notice Lan Xuanyu’s change.

This new student who came in later didn’t display much other than winning Jin Xiang on the first day but his strength was a little terrifying. Even an offensive-type Soul Master did not have strength like this!

Can’t say that he didn’t display any other talents – this chap could eat. It was without a doubt that he had the biggest appetite in class.

Perspiration formed on Lan Xuanyu’s forehead, the pressure from both sides grew more intense and his muscles were aching, even his bones were starting to make noises. But the more this happened, his heart would be filled with an indomitable feeling and this feeling gave him immense strength so he held on forcefully.

The blood in his body was boiling non-stop which caused his skin to turn slightly red. His body began to tremble but his eyes turned brighter.

Liu Feng was the next to be tested. Seeing Lan Xuanyu in this state, he couldn’t help but to pray in his heart – this isn’t just about strength anymore, it’s willpower! This chap’s willpower is actually so strong?

“Alright, stop.” The teacher stepped forward and pressed on the stop button, ending Lan Xuanyu’s strength test.

The second that the metal walls stopped, Lan Xuanyu’s body shook and he nearly fell. He quickly supported himself up with his hands. His entire body was somewhat limp and painful but that blazing bloodstream was still circulating.

The teacher opened the test apparatus and helped him out. Looking very pleased, the teacher said, “Not bad, you’re quite good. Not only are you physically strong, you are tenacious as well – this is an exceptional trait. Continue to work hard but you must remember not to overexert, you need to give yourself some leeway too, understand?”

Understood, thank you, Teacher.” Lan Xuanyu bowed respectfully.

The teacher returned to the seat and wrote a number on his assessment card, then handed it to him.

He scored ten points and a plus sign.

The highest score for each component in the physical test was ten points but what did the plus sign mean?

Lan Xuanyu turned around to look at the timing for his strength test and it was four minutes.

He obviously didn’t know that this plus sign was the greatest honor and it meant that he was recognized by a teacher for having a rare quality and was worth grooming. Although it wouldn’t be included in his assessment results, this plus sign basically meant that he would not be eliminated at the end of the first term.

Following that was the speed test but Lan Xuanyu felt that he didn’t perform well because he had used up quite a bit of energy during the strength test just now. He only got seven points for the speed test.

The Soul Power test was the worst; he needed six points to pass and he only got four and a half. It was without a doubt that he was the lowest in class.

Thankfully, he got another ten points and a plus sign for the Spiritual Test.

There was no way he couldn’t get full marks; with regards to Spiritual Power, Qian Lei and him were too far ahead of the rest so Qian Lei got ten points and a plus sign in this component too.

The most interesting part was that not only the two of them had the plus signs, Liu Feng as well. He topped the class for his speed and received a plus sign on his speed test.

“Physical fitness test results; first place, Lu Qianxun, 38.5 points, and a plus sign.”

As the form teacher, Mu Zhongtian began chanting the total points in the afternoon after the test was over. As the class monitor, Lu Qianxun got the best overall results without a doubt.

“13th place, Lan Xuanyu, 31.5 points and two plus signs.” When Mu Zhongtian read this, he glanced at Lan Xuanyu intentionally.

The Soul Power test had pulled his results down for sure but to be able to get the 13th place among 30 students was indeed out of Mu Zhongtian’s expectations. Furthermore…

“Lan Xuanyu is also the only student who received two plus signs. He was recognized for his strength and Spiritual Power.”

Qian Lei gave Lan Xuanyu a thumbs up sign and chuckled but that didn’t last very long.

“29th place, Liu Feng, 26.5 points and a plus sign.”

“30th place, Qian Lei, 25 points and a plus sign.”

The total points of all three students in Dorm 333 was definitely the lowest in class; too bad that those bottom two were his roommates.

Liu Feng and Qian Lei lowered their heads and wanted to bury themselves in a hole but Mu Zhongtian’s next sentence left them stunned.

“For this physical test, the group with the most plus signs is Dorm 333 – a total of four plus signs. Let us congratulate them. According to the rule set by the academy, the group with the most plus signs would not be eliminated at the end of the term.”

There was an uproar the moment he said that.

Happiness came too suddenly which caused Liu Feng and Qian Lei to be in a daze, Lan Xuanyu was stunned too.

And as for the other students, this wasn’t good news at all!

According to what they said at the start of the semester, there was a number of elimination places at the end of every semester and it was possible that students were eliminated. Everyone thought that the group with the highest possibility of being eliminated was Liu Feng and Qian Lei’s group.

But right now, nobody expected that the weakest group actually had four plus signs and wouldn’t be eliminated. This meant that anyone could be eliminated now!

Since they were able to enter the Elite Junior Class, there wasn’t a huge difference in their grades.

“Teacher, this is not fair. Their group has the lowest points in terms of overall strength! It’s unfair to us if they get such a huge privilege just because they were slightly better in some aspects.” Jin Xiang jumped up without hesitation.

Before Lan Xuanyu arrived, he actually fought with Liu Feng before and punched him. So after Lan Xuanyu came, he would try to provoke him but Lan Xuanyu actually defeated him. Of course, he would hold a grudge.

Mu Zhongtian said plainly, “This is the academy’s decision, you can bring it up with the school if there’s anything you’re unhappy about. Also, all of you can work hard to defeat them during the actual combat test held later in the afternoon. The top team for the actual combat test will not be eliminated either. So do your best, young people. End of class, get some rest.”

After which, Teacher Mu simply turned around and left.

There were discussions all over the class immediately.

“We got ashore! Wahahaha!” Qian Lei couldn’t help and laughed heartily.

Liu Feng nudged him with a strange expression and Qian Lei realized the unfriendly glares in their direction.

“Let’s go eat.” Lan Xuanyu pulled his roommates and left the assessment grounds first.

Canteen.

While they were eating, Qian Lei whispered to Lan Xuanyu and Liu Feng, “It’s time for us to make a splash and let them know how formidable we are in the afternoon! Xuanyu, it’s on you!”

“En en.” Lan Xuanyu promised.

Qian Lei continued, “How much should we reveal in the afternoon? How much strength must we reveal in order to win? Be the champion – would this be considered a double champion?”

“En?” Lan Xuanyu lifted his head and looked at him.

Liu Feng said in an exasperated tone, “Are you shameless? Who’s at the bottom just this morning? You still dare to talk about being a champion?”

Qian Lei pursed his lips, “Hehe, who’s the second last eh?”
