85: Chapter 85 The Day Before the Unified Examination

Simultaneously, battles of varying scales broke out in many regions across Great Xia.

In the end, however, the Heavenly Sword Bureau crushed and eliminated all the so-called Beast Gods of the Beast God Society.

After this battle, the mysterious and unattainable image of the Heavenly Sword Bureau became even more deeply rooted in people's hearts.

...

A week passed quietly.

During this week, many more moles for the Beast God Society were identified within the Guard Army.

After personally fighting those moles, Luo Heng was also completely won over by Tang Mo.

After finishing these matters, Tang Mo received a notification from Principal Lin Hanwen that the Unified Examination was about to begin.

Tang Mo suddenly realized that it had already been a month since his class awakening.

Thinking back on his experiences this month, Tang Mo sighed with emotion, but he felt relieved at the thought of seeing his sister after the Unified Examination.

"I wonder how Sister is doing at Xiafu University now."

"Xiafu University should have special grade skill secret tomes. I'll be able to fill in my remaining five skill slots then."

At level 52, Tang Mo's admission to Xiafu University was practically a done deal.

Tang Mo had previously inquired at the Professional Management Association, but unfortunately, a small city like Jiangkou City had none in stock.

Moreover, the price of one special grade skill secret tome was equivalent to a hundred advanced skill secret tomes, which was outrageously expensive.

It couldn't be helped; these things were even rarer than equipment.

Fortunately, the system had given him six God-level Skills, so Tang Mo wasn't lacking in offensive skills for now.

After setting aside everything he was doing, Tang Mo rushed to the school.

Before the Unified Examination, students had to register at school to confirm the number of participants.

The danger of being a Professional was well-known; within a month, some students might have already died.

This was no joke; it was something that really happened every year.

Upon arriving at the school playground, Tang Mo clearly felt that the number of people had decreased by more than half.

This didn't mean all those people were dead.

Some just knew they had no hope of getting into a university, so they simply gave up and didn't come.

And others really could never come again.

Tang Mo saw Wang Kaiwen as soon as he arrived.

The guy immediately greeted Tang Mo enthusiastically.

"Come, come, everyone move aside, make way for my Brother Tang."

Tang Mo was full of question marks; how did he suddenly become this guy's cousin?

Wang Kaiwen didn't care about that. He had received five pieces of Gold-grade equipment; how could he not cling tightly to such a powerhouse?

"Tang Mo, you're here too."

A clear, ethereal voice suddenly came. Tang Mo looked towards the sound and saw Tu Xiaoxia smiling at him.

With Tang Mo's help, the issues regarding Tu Nie and Tu Xiaoxia were quickly settled, so she could participate in the Unified Examination again.

By now, Tu Xiaoxia had completely emerged from the shadow of her father's injury, and she appeared much more composed.

After Tang Mo greeted her, he was pulled away by Principal Lin Hanwen.

After pulling Tang Mo aside, Lin Hanwen sized him up and asked in confusion, "Kid Tang, what level are you exactly now? Why can't even I see through your level?"

"Level 52."

Tang Mo said with a smile.

Tomorrow was the day of the Unified Examination; there was no longer any need to hide his level.

"You brat, when did you learn to tease me?"

"Level 52? Why don't you just say level 100 and be done with it."

Lin Hanwen gave him a frustrated look.

Tang Mo suddenly seemed to remember something and hurriedly asked, "Principal, can I still participate in the Unified Examination at level 52?"

"Of course. Let me put it this way: as long as you are a Class Awakening Student of this year, you can participate even if you're level 100."

"Conversely, if you aren't from this year's batch, you can't participate even if you're level 100."

"Do you understand?"

Tang Mo nodded. The Unified Examination cared most about the status of being a current-year graduate, not the level.

Everyone knew how difficult it was for Professionals to level up. How high could a fresh newbie reach even if they killed monsters day and night?

Seeing Tang Mo seemingly breathe a sigh of relief, Lin Hanwen's eyes widened. This kid... could he really...

"Kid Tang, are you really level 52?!!"

Tang Mo patted his chest and said, "A genuine level 52, no doubt about it."

"Hahahaha..."

"Good, good, good, good..."

Lin Hanwen didn't know what to say anymore; he just kept laughing and saying "good."

After a long while, he looked at Tang Mo with excitement and said, "Reaching level 52 in one month... this is unprecedented on the entire Blue Star!"

"For Jiangkou City First High School to produce a Tang Mo, my life is complete!"

"This time, those old fellows' jaws are going to drop."

"Hahahaha..."

After saying that, Lin Hanwen couldn't help but laugh out loud again.

This time, the Xiafu University slot for First High is guaranteed!

"Principal, do you know the content of this year's Xiafu University assessment?"

Tang Mo's question actually stumped Lin Hanwen.

The assessment content for Xiafu University is different every year, and it's always announced on short notice at the time of the exam.

And every year, the assessment content is quite difficult.

However, Tang Mo was already level 52, so he should be able to complete it.

Thinking of this, Lin Hanwen couldn't help but feel a bit sorry for Tu Xiaoxia.

She clearly had a chance to enter Xiafu University, but she had to deal with that unfortunate situation.

After her name was cleared, although Tu Xiaoxia desperately tried to catch up in level, she had still wasted a lot of time. Even now, her level hadn't reached 20.

However, in the context of the whole Jiangkou City, aside from Tang Mo, level 18 Tu Xiaoxia was likely the highest-leveled student among this year's graduates.

"The assessment content for Xiafu University won't be announced until tomorrow, but don't worry. With your strength, it shouldn't be a problem."

After giving Tang Mo some pre-exam encouragement and psychological counseling, Lin Hanwen reluctantly walked up to the podium.

Next was the pre-exam guidance for all the students in the school.

Just as Tang Mo returned to his seat, Wang Kaiwen leaned over. "Brother Tang, did you hear? That kid Zhao Chang'a was eaten by a Human-Faced Spider. I heard only his head was left when they found him."

"Tsk tsk, what a tragic death."

Tang Mo knew who Zhao Chang'a was. That kid was always looking for trouble with him and Wang Kaiwen, constantly belittling him in class.

Hearing the news of his death, Tang Mo felt an indescribable sense of desolation, and even Wang Kaiwen's words were filled with sorrow.

The squabbles between classmates were just minor bickering; when something like this actually happened to a classmate, it was still hard to accept for a moment.

Lin Hanwen on the podium clearly knew about the situation. When he began his speech, his expression was solemn, completely lacking the joviality he had when talking to Tang Mo.
