Ye Tianyi reckoned the Supermodel System should have targeted Shi Jiayi instead; she was most definitely a supermodel.
Wow! How could this woman be so thick-skinned? He was almost embarrassed.
On the other side, Dean Li Boren was mortified.
“Miss Shi, stop the ruckus. Start the assessment now,” Li Boren spoke into the microphone in resignation.
Students of Class One started walking up the stage.
On the stage, there was a table. On top of it sat a star-like gem.
Qin Chao said, “Today’s assessment is a little special as there will only be a single round of talent assessment. This is the Astral Stone. The martial artist will place your hand on the Astral Stone which will release your spiritual energy and attribute energy. The Astral Stone will identify your talent based on your current status, including the purity of the attribute, age, realm, and so forth. The Astral Stone will then present one of seven colors; amber, orange, red, green, cyan, blue, and purple. Amber represents mediocre talent, while purple signifies the greatest talent. In the entire Tensui Academy, only I, Lin Changtian, and Bai Hanxue have achieved the purple talent. Of course, Miss Shi Jiayi and Senior Ye Xian’er have the purple talent too!”
After a slight pause, he continued, “Those of you in the elementary class are freshmen who have just joined the academy last month. You may have undergone the assessment before, but today’s assessment is more important. The top 100 students from the elementary class will be promoted to the intermediate class where you will enjoy better training resources and guidance.”
After the explanation, Qin Chao looked at Ye Xian’er and said, “Senior Ye Xian’er, could you show everyone how to use the Astral Stone?”
Ye Xian’er nodded slightly, took two steps forward, placed her dainty hand on the Astral Stone and mobilized her energy.
Swish…
Amber, orange, red, green, cyan, and blue rays of light flashed rapidly and continuously, until finally settling on a dazzling light of purple. Everyone was astounded at the sight.
Ye Tianyi looked at Ye Xian’er in admiration.
Truly, if it was not for his hindrance, she would have become a prominent talent.
“Ye Xian’er has grown stronger yet again. A pity, what a pity indeed.”
Li Boren, who was watching this scene, adjusted his glasses and could not help but sigh. He stole a glance at Ye Tianyi who stood among the students of Class Ten.
“Hmph! A good appearance without any substance!” Li Boren sighed angrily this time.
He truly felt sorry for Ye Xian’er.
“As you can see, Senior Ye Xian’er is a purple top talent. Very few people on the entire continent can achieve this talent. However, even a martial artist with mediocre talent has the opportunity to improve their talent through acquired efforts and chance encounters, so don’t be discouraged. Of course, I also hope to see some purple top talents among all of you. Now, may the students from Class One proceed to the stage in sequence to begin your talent assessment,” Qin Chao said.
Subsequently, a young man stepped forward and placed his hand on the Astral Stone nervously. The tutor of Class One was keeping records.
Swish…
The light barely changed from amber to orange before it stopped.
Li Boren secretly shook his head.
The quality of the freshmen was getting from bad to worse. In the past, there were students like Shi Jiayi, Ye Xian’er, Bai Hanxue, Qin Chao, and Lin Changtian, but there were none that he could pick out from this group. As for Tenseng Academy, the quality of their freshmen this year was quite good. If this situation continued, Tenseng Academy would soon outrank Tensui Academy.
One by one, the martial artists were assessed, but the results were less than satisfactory.
“Ye Tianyi, you’re going to be embarrassed soon, be prepared for it. Oh right… you’re not afraid of being embarrassed, since you’re already so used to it.”
Huo Shui laughed with her arms crossed and flicked a glance at Ye Tianyi who was beside her.
Ye Tianyi looked at Huo Shui.
“Small-chested girl, I’m begging you, stop holding your chest. When other people do that, they’re using their arms to support their chest. But when you’re holding your chest, it is to block people’s view and to make others think you are big-chested, right?” Ye Tianyi curled the corner of his mouth.
“Hah…” Huo Shui chuckled.
This Ye Tianyi was really lucky. On his first day, before she had the time to take care of him, he had a conflict with others and escaped. Today, before she had the chance, Shi Jiayi turned up. Nevertheless, she would not allow Ye Tianyi to continue this. In Tensui Academy, at least at the elementary level, no one dared to provoke her. Her title as a demon girl was not for nothing. When other boys saw her, it was like a mouse looking at a cat, so she could not figure out how a trash like Ye Tianyi could act so fearlessly in front of her.
“Be quiet, or you’ll be punished. I’ll make you kiss each other,” Shi Jiayi glanced over and said.
Both Ye Tianyi and Huo Shui were speechless.
The boss was still the boss; it was different once she spoke.
“A girl of eight hundred bucks is not worth kissing, sigh,” Ye Tianyi lamented.
“Bro Ye, can I follow you in the future?” Li Bang looked at Ye Tianyi expectantly.
For some strange reason, he felt that Ye Tianyi was very strong.
“Why do you insist on following me?”
“Because Bro Ye has the face of a protagonist. I’ve read in novels that the sidekick around the protagonist will eventually become powerful because of the protagonist, so I want to be the sidekick that is by Bro Ye’s side.”
Ye Tianyi, “…”
