101: Chapter assessment is over! First in the country!!

About five meters ahead, a shadow stretched and twisted into a human figure, emanating a chilling, chaotic, and dangerous aura.

Whoosh!!

The next instant, the shadow teleported directly in front of Ye Ze, a dark shadow sickle forming in its hand.

Swish!!

The air was easily torn apart as the dark shadow sickle, carrying an unstoppable sharp edge, slashed down towards Ye Ze.

Even before the sharpness arrived, Ye Ze sensed the danger within it. Even in his Bearman Transformation state with greatly increased defense, he would likely find it difficult to resist.

With a shift of his feet, Ye Ze skillfully dodged the sickle while swinging his bear paw to tear at the shadow.

Clang!!

The shadow's reaction speed was very fast. The sickle followed with an upward slash, meeting the bear claw. The two collided, producing a clear ringing sound like metal striking metal.

Whoosh!! Whoosh!! Whoosh!! Whoosh!!

Clang!! Clang!! Clang!! Clang!!

The two exchanged blows, engaging in a fierce battle.

For a time, sand and stones flew in the arena, the sky was obscured, and the clear ringing of metal striking metal was constant.

In his Bearman Transformation state, although Ye Ze was large, he did not lose his agility, constantly dodging the sickle's sharp edge.

However, the shadow's reaction was equally swift, its sickle defending flawlessly, giving Ye Ze no opportunity to break through.

What made him even more alarmed was that the opponent's speed was getting faster and faster, and he was gradually finding it difficult to cope.

Swish!!

A sharp edge flashed past,

This strike came too fast!

Ye Ze had no time to dodge,

Rip!

A ten-centimeter-long wound was cut into Ye Ze's left waist. Fortunately, it wasn't very deep, just a superficial injury.

But the opponent showed no sign of stopping,

Swish!!

A sharp edge flashed,

The sickle continued to slash towards Ye Ze!

Ye Ze was enraged, a fierce look flashing in his eyes.

Shadow Dance Step - Flash!

Leaving behind a phantom image in his original spot,

Hiss!!

The sickle stopped 1cm away from the phantom image's head,

“Why are you……”

The voice from the darkness hadn't finished speaking,

The next moment—

Rip!!

A cold light flashed,

The bear claw fiercely tore the shadow apart. At the same time, Ye Ze's phantom image also dissipated in place.

The air was silent for a second,

“A phantom image?”

“Good battle awareness, you even fooled me.”

Accompanied by a voice of praise, a seemingly young man walked out of the darkness. However, the powerful aura he exuded in his every move revealed his extraordinary nature.

“My name is Lu Yun, you should have heard of my name.” The man said with a smile.

“Never heard of it.” Ye Ze replied expressionlessly.

He had actually heard his Teacher mention this name. Every time this name was mentioned, the Teachers would show a look of reverence, and they rarely called him by his full name, instead respectfully referring to him as “Lord Lu”.

But Ye Ze was feeling resentful at this moment. Not only had he waited bitterly for three days in this dark cave, but he also had to be given a show of force right away?

“Uh…” Lu Yun smiled awkwardly and said, “It’s alright, just call me Teacher Lu.”

“Teacher Lu, you’re late.” Ye Ze said coldly.

“Cough cough…”

Lu Yun's eyelids twitched, and he changed the subject, saying, “Well, you have successfully reached the destination and completed the third phase route assessment.”

He tapped a few times on his communication watch.

The next second, Ye Ze's communication watch interface flickered.

【Notification: You have successfully completed the third phase route assessment, assessment evaluation SS rank, gained an additional 50000 points!】

【Notification: You have gained 500,000 points!】

“Alright, your assessment is now over. I will teleport you back to your middle school, and the exam results will be announced later.”

After speaking, Lu Yun threw a talisman from his hand, and a burst of white light erupted. A huge teleportation array appeared under Ye Ze's feet.

Lu Yun waved his hand, and the teleportation array erupted with a blinding light. Ye Ze's figure also disappeared from the spot.

“He’s really a calculating examinee…”

Lu Yun shook his head. Suddenly, he remembered something and rubbed his chin, “Hmm… I think I forgot to give him the prize.”

……

……

Broken streams of light flashed before his eyes,

The next second, a blinding white light erupted, and Ye Ze couldn't help but close his eyes. When he opened them again, he was already at the familiar school square.

【Announcement: The “Retracing the Golden Road” major examination has ended. The exam results will be announced in three hours!】

A notification popped up on the communication watch interface.

“It seems I am the last examinee to be teleported back.” Ye Ze murmured.

He tapped on the communication watch interface and found that the examinee interface had been closed, and he could not view his personal information or the points ranking…

……

Three hours later,

The school square was packed with people, all eagerly awaiting the announcement of the final exam results.

Although the assessment score was primarily based on the examinee's personal points, the final evaluation would also affect admission to higher education institutions.

For example, if an examinee had very high personal points but a final evaluation of only D, then the top 100 higher education institutions would basically be out of reach for this examinee.

“Give me a D, I just need to get into a regular higher education institution.”

“It must be C or above, so that with my personal points, I can get into a top 100 higher education institution.”

“It must be C.”

“……”

……

There was a lot of discussion in the square, and the examinees were quietly praying…

Soon, subtitles began to scroll on the central light screen—

Li Gang, Points: 34500, Jiangnan Base City Top 1000, Evaluation: C

“Yes! It’s C!”

A cheer came from the crowd,

Jiangnan Base City Top 1000, Evaluation C. This result was enough to apply to a top 100 higher education institution.

Immediately followed by the next one—

Lan Bingbing, Points: 105600, Jiangnan Base City Top 10000, Evaluation: D

“There’s actually a D, good, good…” The examinee named Lan Bingbing breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiangnan Base City Top 10000, but with a D evaluation, it indicated that his personal performance in the assessment was very good. The low points might be because the team's strength held him back.

Next one—

Wang Yan…

……

The list of results scrolling on the light screen was not arranged in ranking order but displayed in order of student ID.

“Why is it an F evaluation?!”

“Hahaha, ranked in the top 5000, and the evaluation is actually C!!”

“……”

Below the stage, some were happy and some were sad,

And on the square's podium, Principal Shen Yixin, along with a group of Teachers including Wei Qing, had anxious expressions. They were all waiting for a name to appear.

Finally—

Ye Ze, Points: 1736800, Personal Points National First, Team Points National First, Evaluation: SSS!

Wow!!!

The entire audience stood up!!

Among the numbers that were only a little over 10000, 20000, 30000, a number over 1.7 million popped out. This huge impact made everyone present's hearts pound.

Although they already knew this result,

Although they knew that this number would inevitably follow this name, the moment the subtitles actually appeared, everyone was still deeply shocked…
