11: Chapter 11 Martial Arts Bureau

However, the results of the Qi and blood test this time still far exceeded his expectations.

"Brother Yan! You're too awesome!"

Zhou Yuan almost jumped up, lowering his voice in excitement, "72 calories of Qi and blood! Just based on this alone, you can definitely rank in the top ten in the class!

Plus your Spear Technique that has reached the high stage of the first rank... Once the comprehensive ranking comes out, Brother Yan, you will definitely have the strength of the top ten in the class!"

As a close friend, he knew well how difficult Qin Yan's family circumstances were, and understood even better Qin Yan's determination to get into a martial arts university and change his fate.

Seeing his friend make such huge progress, he was genuinely happy for Qin Yan.

Lin Yang, who was standing to the side, was dumbfounded.

Although he knew that Qin Yan trained desperately and that his Stance Training had reached the third level, meaning his Qi and blood would definitely improve significantly, the extent still far exceeded his imagination.

"Qin Yan, you... this is really..." For a moment, he didn't know what to say.

Qin Yan just smiled and said, "I just got lucky. I've felt that my cultivation has been smoother recently."

In his heart, he thought about how the panel meant that as long as one put in the "effort," there would be rewards.

Very quickly, all the students in Ordinary Class (1) finished their Qi and blood tests.

Gu Feng assembled the team and led them to the next test site—the Martial Arts Skill test area.

Meanwhile, Principal Wu Ming on the podium was a bit uneasy and did not dare to speak easily.

Because Director Wan Xueping beside him still had a gloomy expression. Although there were two good prospects with 82 calories this year, and the results were better than in previous years, it seemed they did not reach Director Wan's expectations.

"The students are clearly already very excellent, why does he still have that expression?" Wu Ming was puzzled.

"After the Martial Arts Skill test results come out, immediately organize everyone's information, especially the detailed data of the high-scoring students, and send it to me." Wan Xueping said in a deep voice, his tone carrying a hint of unwillingness, wanting to see if there would be any surprises in the Martial Arts Skill test.

"Very well, Director Wan, I will definitely send it to you as soon as possible!" Principal Wu Ming agreed respectfully.

Wan Xueping nodded, said nothing more, and turned to leave the playground.

He planned to visit several other high schools in the city, even though he knew in his heart that the possibility of a miracle appearing was minimal.

On the other side, Gu Feng led the students out of the school gate.

Seeing the confused expressions on the students' faces, he explained, "For this Monthly Exam, the school strives to fully simulate the environment of the College Entrance Examination, so the Martial Arts Skill test will not be conducted within the school.

We will use professional venues and equipment with the same specifications as the College Entrance Examination to ensure the accuracy and authority of the results."

Qin Yan understood upon hearing this.

In previous tests, whether it was Qi and blood or skills, most were evaluated by the school's instruments and teachers, which inevitably led to some slight deviations.

Conducting such a highly simulated test before the College Entrance Examination was indeed very necessary.

The team walked for about ten minutes and arrived in front of a majestic silver-gray building.

The architectural style was cold and modern, with a striking badge and a plaque that read "Linhai City Martial Arts Administration Bureau" hanging at the entrance, exuding a sense of solemnity and authority.

"We're actually testing here!" Lin Yang couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice, a look of surprise on his face.

"What kind of institution is this, Lin Yang?" Qin Yan asked curiously, and Zhou Yuan, who was beside him, also cast an inquiring look.

They didn't know much about the "Martial Arts Bureau."

"Those Qi and blood testing pods on the playground are said to be professional equipment provided by the Martial Arts Bureau," Lin Yang explained in a low voice. "Think about it, can an institution that can provide equipment up to College Entrance Examination standards have a simple background?

Also, Coach Gu once mentioned unintentionally that the status of the Martial Arts Bureau is very transcendent, and he specifically warned me not to spread it around. Just know this, don't go spreading it everywhere."

Gu Feng, walking in front, twitched the corner of his mouth slightly and clenched his fists.

He was a true Martial Artist with sharp hearing and keen eyesight; he heard Lin Yang's little whispers clearly.

He silently made a mental note against Lin Yang: "This kid, I'll deal with you later."

At this moment, a staff member wearing a dark blue uniform with a serious expression walked out from inside.

Gu Feng immediately stepped forward, presented his teacher's ID and the school's official letter, and exchanged a few words with the other party in a low voice.

After verifying everything was correct, the staff member nodded and signaled that the team could enter.

"Students, after going in, follow the instructions of the staff in all actions. You are absolutely not allowed to run around on your own!" Gu Feng turned around and instructed sternly, "After the test is completed, gather here at the entrance. Do you understand?"

"Understood!" The students replied in unison, and with curiosity and nervousness, they followed the staff member into this mysterious building.

The internal lobby was spacious and bright, but the atmosphere was exceptionally quiet and solemn.

Soon, several staff members came over, divided the team into several groups, and took them to different testing areas.

Qin Yan was separated from Zhou Yuan and Lin Yang; he was taken to a quiet waiting hall to wait there with some students from his class.

Students were called by number one by one to enter the testing rooms.

It was very quiet in the hall; one could only hear the occasional calling of numbers and slightly nervous breathing.

Soon, it was Qin Yan's turn. He stood up in response and followed a staff member into a corridor, entering a separate small room.

"Name." "Qin Yan." "Qi and blood." "72 calories." The staff member entered Qin Yan's information.

"Number 11, this is your information card." "Later, when you enter the room, insert the information card into the Puppet, take out a weapon, and then fight the Puppet." The staff member handed over a silver card and instructed.

Qin Yan reached out to take it and thanked him. Then he walked towards the room behind him.

The room was not large, and the walls were made of special sound-absorbing Materials.

On one side stood a weapon rack, fully stocked with conventional weapons such as blades, spears, swords, and staffs.

Qin Yan glanced over and found that there were no obscure weapons like the ancient ruler, and couldn't help but wonder how Xiao Huo in his class would test.

In the center of the room stood a humanoid Puppet quietly.

It was made entirely of some kind of matte black metal, nearly two meters tall, with a precise structure and joints that shimmered with a faint blue luster, full of a sense of technology, yet carrying a cold sense of oppression.

"So this is the test Puppet." Qin Yan understood in his heart.

He walked to the weapon rack, took down a standard long spear, weighed it, and it felt good in his hand.

Then he walked to the front of the Puppet and inserted the silver information card into a slot on its chest.

"Beep! Information inputting... Input successful. Candidate Qin Yan, Qi and blood 72 calories. The test is about to begin, please retreat to the safety zone." A cold electronic voice sounded.

Qin retreated as instructed, while simultaneously assuming a spear stance.

With the long spear in hand, his mind immediately calmed down, and his gaze sharply locked onto the Puppet.
