416: Chapter 416 The Assessment Concludes!

At this moment.

Tai Fang and the assembled high-ranking Guest Elders all widened their eyes, exchanging glances to confirm if they had misheard.

It was only when they saw Venerable Jiu Lu's retreating figure that they dared to be completely certain.

However, this was immediately followed by a wave of disbelief.

Venerable Jiu Lu had actually given Li Fan his affirmation.

He even instructed Li Fan to visit him after the assessment concluded.

Could it be that he intended to personally teach Li Fan something?

If that were the case,

it would truly be huge news!

One had to know that Venerable Jiu Lu was notoriously lax and highly discerning. Besides drinking, he rarely participated in any company activities.

The only reason he came this time was due to various factors, requiring the higher-ups to put in significant effort to summon him.

As for his high standards,

the last time a younger generation member received his guidance was traced back ten thousand years!

Now, for Venerable Jiu Lu to specifically request Li Fan's presence, carrying the implication of guidance, was genuinely astonishing.

Fortunately, Venerable Jiu Lu had only said this to the high-ranking officials.

If it had been announced publicly,

the venue would have likely exploded by now!

"Work hard, kid, your future is limitless!"

Tai Fang took a deep breath at this moment, his gaze fixed tightly on Li Fan in the projection, his heart surging with emotion.

He had seen many excellent geniuses, and he deeply understood that to truly rise, besides top-tier talent, one also needed top-tier fortune and blessings!

Now, Venerable Jiu Lu was opening a door of fortune for Li Fan.

Being appreciated and guided by Venerable Jiu Lu was absolutely a massive opportunity!

...

Regarding Tai Fang's high regard,

Li Fan was clearly completely unaware at the moment.

He leaped up from the deep pit.

Li Fan couldn't help but briefly examine the large crater.

Thinking back carefully, did he perhaps use a bit too much strength?

But this thought was quickly cast aside.

Defeating Sang Yuening into unconsciousness within two moves—wasn't that another form of cherishing a fair maiden?

Moreover, to be fair,

Sang Yuening simply didn't understand the terror of his Mental Energy; otherwise, the fight wouldn't have ended so easily.

Sang Yuening was truly strong!

If there was an opportunity in the future, he even somewhat wanted to unleash a Mental Energy attack and clash with her purely head-on.

Of course, he probably wouldn't have that chance anytime soon.

Then,

Li Fan checked the time; only a few days remained until the assessment ended.

His current points were relatively stable.

But if he stayed completely still, there would still be some risk.

"I'll go look for a Spirit Body again."

Li Fan murmured softly, then vanished at the end of the Gobi desert.

Meanwhile, on the other side,

all the great prodigies within the secret realm were currently in a state of trepidation.

The reason was simple:

they had seen the name of Sang Yuening, who was originally ranked third in points, turn gray!

This clearly indicated that Sang Yuening had been eliminated!

This was undoubtedly a huge shock to them!

With Sang Yuening's strength,

who could eliminate her?!

A Spirit Body with Three Strands of Law Power?

Or perhaps Han Luo or Li Fan, who were ranked higher?

That shouldn't be the case!

Sang Yuening was also a top-tier prodigy who had comprehended Three Strands of Law Power and reached the peak of Universe Level Three!

Even if she couldn't defeat these people, couldn't she run away?

Therefore, Sang Yuening's elimination most likely involved some hidden reason!

Could it be that something even more heaven-defying had appeared in the secret realm?

They didn't know,

nor did they dare to explore further.

It was almost over; taking huge risks to uncover secrets at this juncture—wasn't that just asking for trouble?

So,

from a God's-eye view,

all the Students in the secret realm had become exceedingly cautious, and their actions were extremely conservative.

Only Li Fan remained, strolling leisurely through the secret realm, acting like he was taking a walk in the park!

The contrast between the two scenes was on entirely different levels!

And this situation persisted until the final day of the assessment before being broken.

On the last day,

the Students all began their final push, trying their best to accumulate more points at this last moment.

So, regardless of whether they could win, they charged at any Fierce Beast or Spirit Body they encountered!

Even when Students met each other, they immediately fought!

After all, at this time, eliminating one person meant their own points might allow them to surpass someone else!

Compared to Li Fan,

Li Fan had completely given up and found a spot to lie down and bask in the sun.

Because by this time, Han Luo, ranked second, needed to consecutively defeat three Spirit Bodies possessing Three Strands of Law Power to surpass Li Fan.

And this was clearly almost impossible.

Setting aside whether Han Luo possessed that strength,

it would be as difficult as ascending to heaven for Han Luo to even find three such Spirit Bodies!

In fact, things were exactly as Li Fan had predicted.

Han Luo was now completely desperate and frantically searching for Spirit Bodies with Three Strands of Law Power!

However, this was undoubtedly very difficult,

because he had only encountered one such Spirit Body from beginning to end.

Although he won that time, becoming the second Student after Li Fan to defeat a Spirit Body with Three Strands of Law Power, the process was not easy.

And most importantly, he hadn't significantly closed the point gap with Li Fan.

Even after adding one million points,

he was still nearly two million points behind Li Fan!

Li Fan was as if he had activated a cheat, consistently maintaining a huge point gap with him!

Now, his mind had only two thoughts:

One, for the system to refresh three or four Spirit Bodies with Three Strands of Law Power for him!

Two, for Li Fan to immediately appear before him!

Even if he defeated Li Fan, Li Fan's points would still be higher than his, and he would still only be second!

But this could completely resolve his inner demons and simultaneously show the outside world one thing:

That he, Han Luo, was still the number one in the sequence based on raw strength!

But unfortunately,

as the sun slowly set,

until the instructor announced the official end of the Sequence Assessment.

Han Luo still hadn't encountered a Spirit Body with Three Strands of Law Power, nor had he encountered Li Fan.

Thus,

the final sequence rankings settled at this point:

First place was Li Fan.

Second was Han Luo.

Third was Yun Yang.

Fourth was Sang Yuening, who had been eliminated by Li Fan.

Actually, regarding these rankings,

apart from Li Fan, they were largely consistent with what everyone had predicted.

"Alright."

"This qingyun plan Sequence Assessment is officially over!"

"Everyone log off!"

As the projection in front of the virtual venue disappeared, accompanied by the sound of Tai Fang's voice,

the curtain officially fell on the qingyun plan Sequence Assessment!

But of course,

the impact of this assessment had not ended; it had only just begun!
