The upcoming annual assessment suppressed the storm caused by Chu Yunfan’s return.
There were many subjects offered at Federation University. The students of Federation University were trained to be all-rounded talents who were well-versed in things like astronomy and geography, so the subjects were very heavy. If it were not for the fact that the students of Federation University were geniuses, they would not be able to endure such a heavy course.
After the two days, the assessments for each subject were extremely intense. The students would be thrown into another subject right after completing one subject, which was extremely taxing on their bodies. However, to the students, this was not much. After all, in terms of martial arts cultivation, they were definitely considered superhuman.
As for Chu Yunfan, the two days was plenty. He had a photographic memory, so he was able to complete all the tests very quickly. On the contrary, it allowed him to have more time to practice the Mantis Divine Kick and the Shakyamuni’s Elephant Throwing that he had just exchanged for from Federation University.
Chu Yunfan had already practiced the Mantis Divine Kick previously. After combining it with the circulation method of his True Energy, he quickly cultivated it to the Impeccable Stage. He was just a step away from cultivating it to the Perfection Stage.
The Shakyamuni’s Elephant Throwing was a technique that allowed one to instantly unleash their strength. To ordinary martial artists, this was merely a practical cultivation technique. However, to someone like Chu Yunfan who had cultivated the Imperial Physique, it offered him a huge boost and greatly increased his battle prowess.
At the same time, Chu Yunfan would take one Stellaris Fasting Pill every day to purify the impurities in his body. The process of human cultivation was a process of transforming one’s life level. They had to constantly remove the impurities in their bodies and the fundamental goal of cultivation was to make the body stronger.
The Stellaris Fasting Pill was indeed worthy of its great reputation. It was outstanding. It was slightly different from the fasting pills that Chu Yunfan had gotten to know through the Alchemy Emperor’s memories. However, the essence was the same.
It has been made even more scientific and outstanding through modern technology. By adding many trace elements and nutrients needed by the human body, it could satisfy Chu Yunfan’s cultivation needs.
For two days, other than entering the virtual network assessment, Chu Yunfan did not leave the villa. Soon, it was the third day. The martial arts class annual assessment had arrived and the ranking competition would begin soon.
[Ding! Chu Yunfan, you’ve passed the assessment. Please decide whether you want to participate in the next ranking battle.]
[Yes.]
The basic assessment was naturally not a problem for Chu Yunfan. He passed them easily. After he passed the assessments, he quickly appeared in a huge space. The students who were going to participate in this year’s freshman annual assessment had gathered here. With tens of thousands of students gathered together, it was a spectacular sight.
Chu Yunfan tried to contact Tang Siyu, but he received no reply. Tang Siyu had not participated in the annual assessment.
Chu Yunfan did not force the matter. He knew that although his strength was sufficient now, there was nothing he could do. And his arrival had undoubtedly attracted the attention of many.
As the champion of the conference, Chu Yunfan was naturally a person shrouded in boundless glory over the past few months. Even the most powerful Mei Haiyun’s limelight had been completely stolen by him. Everyone knew that Mei Haiyun had suffered a crushing defeat at his hands.
Just like before, Mei Haiyun had become the target of public criticism and was the target of countless people’s attention. Now, Chu Yunfan had naturally become the target as well.
“That’s Chu Yunfan? He doesn’t look like much, but for a character like him, the more ordinary they look, the more it proves that their aura has been restrained, and also the more terrifying they are,” a student spoke up.
“Our batch of freshmen is very strong. Especially Chu Yunfan. Have you all heard? The Guangfu Association’s Li Guanghua was crippled by a single kick and is still being treated in the hospital.”
“That’s true. Chu Yunfan was strong before, but it’s hard to say now. His performance at the conference was indeed amazing, but he definitely won’t be allowed to use a demonic treasure like the Demon Descends Illustration here. He won’t be able to use it in virtual space either. When that time comes, the outcome will be unknown.”
“That’s right. I heard that Mei Haiyun and Dong Fanghao have also become stronger. Mei Haiyun started an organization. Even the top ten sophomores from last year submitted to him and are working for him now.”
“Dong Fanghao is even more audacious. A few days ago, he challenged a high-ranking junior. In the end, he won.”
As everyone discussed animatedly, Chu Yunfan, Mei Haiyun, and Dong Fanghao—the top three—were the center of countless discussions. They were the existences that were mentioned the most.
Not long after, Chu Yunfan realized that he had been surrounded, and they were all old acquaintances. They were Mei Haiyun, Dong Fanghao, and the others.
“Why? Do you want to decide the winner here?” Chu Yunfan sneered as he looked at these people.
The arrival of these people brought Chu Yunfan to the center of attention.
“Chu Yunfan, don’t be too arrogant. We came prepared this time. Don’t go thinking that you’ll win for sure,” Dong Fanghao said slowly. His eyes were filled with complicated emotions. In his eyes, Chu Yunfan had just been an insignificant person, but now, Chu Yunfan was above him. He felt helpless.
“Saying all this is useless. I know that you guys have become much stronger in the past two months. You might even have some fortuitous encounters. However, it’s useless to count your eggs. In the end, we’ll have to fight to determine the winner,” Chu Yunfan said nonchalantly.
Whether it was Mei Haiyun, Dong Fanghao, or the others, they were clearly much stronger than they were two months ago. They could hide it from others, but they could not hide it from Chu Yunfan’s senses.
Chu Yunfan was not surprised. In the past two months, he himself had made great progress. It was impossible for the others to not have made any progress, especially Mei Haiyun and Dong Fanghao. If they had not met Chu Yunfan, Mei Haiyun and Dong Fanghao both had the strength to dominate a whole age group.
However, Chu Yunfan had absolute confidence. Although they had become stronger, they would not be able to catch up with his rate of progress. After all, his target was Jiang Lingxiao. If he cultivated at the same speed as them, the gap of two years between him and Jiang Lingxiao would never be bridged.
“Chu Yunfan’s right. Let’s see what happens in the ring when the time comes.” After throwing a glance at Chu Yunfan, Mei Haiyun turned around and left.
Dong Fanghao took a look and also turned around to leave.
Not long after they left, the ranking competition finally began.
