34: This goes against our ancestral teachings.

At this moment, Jian Tong was completely numb.

In her estimation, Shen Bei's attribute values had plummeted!

This was not a good sign.

This was just the Strength attribute.

If other attributes also dropped by 8 points.

48 minus 36...

Even if it was tested at 80 points yesterday.

That would only leave 44 points!

It was far from the 60-point threshold!

What's more, 60 points was just the minimum. Who knew if a Prodigy student would appear and raise this standard line?

Jian Tong's face was desolate, a sense of despair engulfing her heart.

She didn't even dare to look at the tens digit scrolling on the electronic screen.

She couldn't bear to look; it must be 1.

At this moment, Professor Gu Xinrou noticed Jian Tong was somewhat abnormal and asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

Jian Tong stammered, "Yesterday, Shen Bei came to my house to test his attribute values. His Strength attribute was 23."

Upon hearing this, Professor Gu Xinrou immediately realized what had happened.

A chill ran from the soles of her feet, up her spine, to her head.

Yesterday, this digit was 3.

Today, it became 5.

Undoubtedly, it had plummeted!

Professor Gu Xinrou took a deep breath, her eyes filled with intense frustration and resentment: "This brat, he wouldn't listen to good advice, and now he's screwed up!"

There was no need to overthink this situation.

The backlash effect had arrived!

What did it matter that Shen Bei performed Stance Training for three hours a few days ago?

Now he was still a failure!

It was truly infuriating!

Meanwhile, Qi Chuanyu was muttering, as if casting a curse: "All Heavenly Gods and Buddhas, Emperor Tathagata, Bodhisattva Guanyin, Virgin Mary, Lord Jesus... please bless the tens digit to be 1!"

Liao Zhongyang chimed in, "How could it be 1? Shen Bei Cultivates the Horse Stance, clearly following a close-quarters combat path, so his Strength and Physique must be high."

"You shut up!" Qi Chuanyu glared.

...

Under everyone's gaze.

The tens digit on the electronic screen finally appeared.

It was 2!

Boom!!!

The entire venue was in shock!

Suddenly, the originally noisy examination hall seemed to have been paused, and everyone collectively fell silent.

No one had expected it.

In their eyes, Shen Bei, who was slacking off and only knew how to experience adapting to society by screwing screws, actually had such high Strength attribute!

As high as 25 points!

The Main Examiner suddenly stood up, staring intently at the electronic screen.

Shock and astonishment, like crashing waves, swept through his heart.

A hint of surprise and tremor appeared in his eyes.

Normally, it wasn't unheard of for a student's Strength attribute to reach 40 points.

But those were isolated cases, appearing only once every few years, and couldn't be used as a standard for comparison.

The average Strength value for other students was around 15, 16, or 17 points.

But Shen Bei...

This struggling child, who worked part-time to make ends meet, actually reached 25 points!

This was already quite outstanding!

The contrast was too great!

The other examiners also showed expressions of disbelief.

A guy who was clearly perfunctory about the exam could still have such a high Strength attribute... truly astonishing!

The examiners couldn't help but speak out:

"Is the testing equipment broken? Although I really hope this is true, Shen Bei's attitude towards the exam is too fake."

"There's no need to doubt the equipment's operational status. We can only say that this kid has personality."

"Perhaps only this one attribute is outstanding, and other attributes will be poor. Let's wait and see."

"Stop looking, continue the exam."

"Next! Niu... Niu... Niu Liu from Kaiyuan County!"

...

At this very moment.

Jian Tong and Professor Gu Xinrou, who had already resigned themselves to Shen Bei not getting into a martial arts university, were stunned after seeing the final result.

The reversal came too quickly, too suddenly!

Professor Gu Xinrou bit her tongue sharply, the pain stimulating her brain, and she fully sobered up.

What?

Not 1, but 2?

25 points?

It actually increased by 2 points?

Hiss~~~

The two girls exchanged glances. What kind of strange situation was this!

After just one night, attribute values could still increase?

What about the supposed early Cultivation that would deplete attribute values?

Did Shen Bei consume it?

"Incredible..."

Professor Gu Xinrou watched Shen Bei climbing up and down the scaffolding in the distance, screwing screws.

Her heart stirred; she found him somewhat incomprehensible now.

"It's too terrifying!"

Jian Tong's face, however, lit up with joy: "I knew Shen Bei would definitely be strong!"

Jian Tong's fair, delicate hand went into her pocket and squeezed her ID card...

On the other side, Qi Chuanyu gasped: "This is insane..."

Liao Zhongyang smiled: "See? I told you it would definitely be 25 points. But compared to me, it's still far too low."

Qi Chuanyu retorted directly: "If all of Shen Bei's attribute values are above 20 points, would you still be smiling?"

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Liao Zhongyang shouted: "Could he become a five-sided warrior?"

"Who the hell knows."

Qi Chuanyu gazed at Shen Bei screwing screws, his eyes clouded.

...

And the audience throughout the venue erupted in a roar of sound.

Was 25 points of Strength attribute high?

Yes.

But not the ceiling.

The reason it caused such a sensation was Shen Bei's nonchalant attitude.

Punch, then run.

Continue working!

Who among normal people would do such a thing?

The entire crowd of onlookers was stunned.

With this kind of capital, why bother with scaffolding? Can't he have some ambition!

...

At this very moment.

After a brief shock at the examination venue.

The exam continued.

The second person to step forward was Niu Yanben.

Even the Main Examiner found this strange name a mouthful.

"Niu Yanben, reporting!"

He had a cynical demeanor, grinning playfully.

The Main Examiner merely glanced at him and immediately announced: "Test score, deduct 3 attribute points!"

As soon as these words were spoken.

Waves of laughter erupted from the entire audience.

"Holy crap, this guy is even more of a wild card than Shen Bei!"

"Wait... can someone tell me why Niu Liu's attribute points are being deducted?"

"You don't understand this? Disheveled clothes, face painted like a ghost."

"The Martial Arts also has requirements for personal appearance. Normal attire is fine, but this guy dyed his hair and wore earrings. According to regulations, attribute points can be deducted."

"Isn't that a disadvantage?"

"Stubborn, I guess."

...

Niu Yanben, upon learning that his attribute points were deducted, showed no remorse. Instead, he tossed his hair and said, "This is what you call swagger."

The Main Examiner snorted: "Go for the Strength test, next!"

The third student stepped forward.

The Main Examiner looked at this student's political review materials, his eye twitching, and he tentatively asked, "Do you think you still need to be here?"

The student pouted: "I think it's alright, isn't it?"

The Main Examiner coughed: "It's not that I'm trying to discourage you, but your Family tree, for six generations up, consists of either collaborators or puppet army leaders, with famous big traitors, Advanced traitors, and even intellectual reactionaries. This Family lineage, claiming to guard the mountains and rivers and protect the country, is quite contrary to ancestral teachings..."

Pfft...

The other examiners spat out a mouthful of old blood.

They all widened their eyes, scrambling to look at the political review materials.

Good heavens!

Truly a rare sight in a hundred years!

All the villainous roles had been collected!

Amazing.

Amazing!

The Main Examiner waved his hand: "Go back."

The student slumped his shoulders: "What a disaster!"

The students waiting in line behind him covered their mouths and giggled:

"Holy crap, this guy even has an ID card. It's the harmonious society that saved him!"

"This reincarnation skill... truly unlucky."

"I think he could go into acting, specializing in playing big traitors. That's a Legacy in his bones."

"Are we witnessing the birth of an actor?"

"Don't just make fun, students in front, hurry up, we still have to take the exam."
