83: Chapter 83 The Chosen One

"Wu Feng, look at the leaderboard quickly."

In a small city-state that had just been conquered, Bai Yuanyu, who was responsible for keeping watch outside the city, ran to Wu Feng like a gust of wind.

"What's wrong?"

Wu Feng, who was currently using 'force' to 'preach' to the priest, raised his head and looked at the anxious Bai Yuanyu.

"You'll know once you look at the leaderboard."

Bai Yuanyu's expression was excited as he continued to urge him.

"Tianshu, open the leaderboard."

Wu Feng frowned, but still used one of his opportunities to check the leaderboard.

For the Students, the leaderboard was not just a list; it was also a Sharp Weapon for observing the 'development progress' of every Student.

Before this, he and Bai Yuanyu had already checked the rankings of the top Students in their class, such as Chen Mo, Du Ruo, and Liu Yiyi.

But other than Du Ruo, who was frantically farming points to break into the top ten, the others hardly had any movement. In particular, Chen Mo, whom they were most concerned about, actually only had a pathetic 10 points, and his ranking was not even as good as Wu Feng's own.

"This is..."

Wu Feng, who had opened the leaderboard, suddenly froze and looked at the name at the very top of the list in disbelief.

Name: Chen Mo {Lanshan First God Academy}

Points: 3580

Rank: 1

Name: Yan Mingxuan {Fengshan Academy}

Points: 950

Rank: 2

Name: Wei Qin {Cangshui First God Academy}

Points: 770

Rank: 3

...

"3580 points! The second place doesn't even have a thousand!"

Bai Yuanyu pointed at Chen Mo's lofty ranking and points, excitedly shaking Wu Feng's shoulders.

"This..."

Wu Feng let out a long sigh, feeling a bit dejected in his heart.

He had originally thought that after comprehending two types of higher Laws, the gap between himself and Chen Mo should have narrowed a bit.

But now...

...

Inside the bamboo building, four deans and seven representatives from High Academies gathered together.

And right now, everyone had the same light screen in front of them.

In the light screen was none other than Chen Mo, who was still cleaning up the battlefield.

"Old Li, impressive!"

Feng Nian, the dean of Fengshan Academy, immediately spoke up, and the other two deans also looked at Li Chengsheng with envious gazes.

"It's the Student's own hard work; it has nothing to do with me."

Li Chengsheng shook his head, but the curve of his mouth was harder to suppress than an AK.

"How about it? I didn't make you come for nothing, right!" Li Chengsheng looked at Tan Feng with a chuckle.

"A fusion divine art of three Laws, and it looks like it was self-created. Hmm, it is indeed beyond my expectations."

Tan Feng nodded, then looked at Chen Mo in the light screen with a complex expression.

"It's just that this Kin system is a bit... obscure!"

After hesitating for a few seconds, Tan Feng finally spoke the truth.

The Virus Kin might seem unfamiliar to others, but as a researcher and teaching assistant for The Stars, he had seen similar things hundreds of years ago.

That was where the problem lay.

Even Professor Xu Bo, a special-grade professor at The Stars, had given up on the follow-up research of the Virus Kin, which was enough to show that this Kin had no significant development prospects.

Although it looked like Chen Mo's Virus Kin were very fierce.

But every one of the 'world-ending weapons' developed by the Federation had similar or even stronger effects.

It wasn't that there were no virus weapons, but very few could pose a threat to those above the demigod level. This was the visible limit of viruses.

As for the Virus Kin... if Tan Feng remembered correctly, it seemed that even Professor Professor Xu Bo hadn't cultivated a single demigod-level Virus Kin.

Viruses, these special Life forms even smaller than microorganisms, ultimately had too low of a potential!

"Don't you High Academies have a professor who specializes in researching Virus Kin?" Li Chengsheng couldn't help but ask.

"We do, but even that person has given up on it."

Tan Feng shook his head with a bitter smile, then looked at Li Chengsheng with some embarrassment.

"Old Li, I won't hide it from you. I can definitely give a special recruitment spot, but I'm not sure what level I can give right now."

"What do you mean?" Li Chengsheng couldn't help but frown.

"Let me explain."

A representative from a High Academy who was also very interested in Chen Mo stepped out. He glanced at Tan Feng, and after confirming that the other party had no objections, he cupped his hands toward Li Chengsheng and the other three deans.

"Actually, even if I don't say it, the Education Bureau will issue an official notice soon, so I might as well inform the four deans in advance."

"In fact, this Hundred Academies Special Recruitment is not an idea of our various High Academies, but a tentative reform of the College Entrance Examination system by the Federation.

Let's put it this way: all specially recruited Students will be completely separated from College Entrance Examination Students and trained independently by the various High Academies.

The Federation's intention is to let our High Academies concentrate resources to cultivate a batch of Prodigies who can shoulder the responsibilities of the era, so even for special recruits, the treatment is completely different."

Speaking of this, the teacher from Sihai Elite Academy pointed at Chen Mo in the light screen and looked at Li Chengsheng with a very sincere gaze.

"Regular, Elite, Prodigy, God Selection—these are the four ratings. My Sihai Academy is willing to offer a spot in the Prodigy Class, and this is the only Prodigy Class spot I have in my hand.

Please believe me, this sincerity is very sufficient. By the way, my name is Yan Hexuan; you can just call me Old Yan."

Yan Hexuan looked at Li Chengsheng with a smile. He didn't suddenly step out to show off; snatching talent was his real purpose.

As for the Virus Kin or whatever, who cares? With the Law talent Chen Mo has shown now, even if he changes to a different Kin system, it's not impossible.

It would just be a few steps slower; a Prodigy is still a Prodigy!"

"So what kind of treatment can The Stars offer?"

Li Chengsheng suddenly looked at the silent Tan Feng.

"Huu..." Tan Feng took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, and said.

"I can help him strive for a spot in the Elite Class."

As soon as these words were spoken, Li Chengsheng's expression changed completely.

Elite Class, and he still has to strive for it?

Is Chen Mo that bad?

"Old Li, I only have one Elite Class spot in my hand." Tan Feng was a bit helpless, but he still told the truth.

The various High Academies have strict restrictions on the recruitment representatives going to various big cities.

For example, Tan Feng only has three Regular Class spots and one Elite Class spot in his hand.

Of course, if he really encounters a good seedling, he can also apply to the school temporarily.

But to be honest, Tan Feng didn't think Chen Mo would be approved.

The requirements of The Stars were too high!
