The Queen of Scrolls never admits defeat

Chapter 792 Three Thousand Mirror Ruins 59
After reading the three books, a clear growth path for truly top-tier geniuses gradually took shape in her mind.

"I'll definitely have to take the mental strength test again when I go back to school tomorrow..." Moran tapped the pages of the book lightly, silently pondering what level she should aim for in the exam.

A monster directly comparable to the one in "The Day"? That would be like a lighthouse in the night, instantly becoming the focus of all eyes and unknown dangers.

The Three Thousand Mirror Ruins World is different from the Dream Weaving World.

Her current level of magic power is not yet at the upper limit of the Three Thousand Mirror Ruins World, but her level of mental power is. However, her level of both witch magic and mage magic is still far from sufficient.

Prematurely attracting the attention of powerful individuals who have reached or even surpassed the pinnacle of power in this world is not a good thing for her.

"No, there's no need to be so radical." Moran shook his head slightly and made a more prudent decision: "Let's just refer to the average level of those commoner prodigies who were famous for their 'growth speed' in their youth in the 'Records of the Three Thousand Mirror Ruins: Star Volume' to demonstrate my strength to the outside world!"
Hmm...fifteen years old, and his mental strength is roughly at the second level of three stars.

With this level of skill, winning first place in the entrance exam for the Donghua Alliance's national Exploration Academy is definitely not a problem.

It can also attract attention and resources from the school and even higher levels, paving the way for her future development.

Most importantly, safety is paramount. A fifteen-year-old three-star second-stage genius would be considered a worthwhile investment in Luming Mirror, Donghua Alliance, or even Mirror Ruins University. However, for the true powerhouses of this world, she is not considered extraordinary. After all, in history, even geniuses of her level could only rank in the middle to lower ranks in the weakest Star Volume of "The Record of Three Thousand Mirror Ruins Geniuses".

After completing all these preparations, she sat down at her desk, spread out the letter paper, and began to write a letter to Teacher Yan Shuang.

In the letter, she first briefly reported that she was safe and sound, indicating that she had returned safely from Yongquan Forest.

Subsequently, she significantly "cut and adapted" her thrilling exploration and training process over the past year, focusing on how she painstakingly searched for the thorny fluorescent insects, how she carefully avoided high-level mirror beasts, and how she diligently trained under pressure. As for the astonishing feats such as hunting the final seven-star mirror beasts and completing the full collection of the encyclopedia, she omitted them all.

Next, she attached her "latest" mental strength test results and earnestly mentioned that she hoped to schedule a tutoring session as soon as possible to ask the teacher for advice on further improving her martial arts skills and about choosing her first three-star beast core skill.

After sending the letter to Teacher Yan Shuang's personal mailbox, Moran quickly washed up and went to rest. Even though meditation could restore mental energy, her body desperately needed a complete rest.

The next morning, Moran had just gotten up when he heard a soft buzzing sound coming from the mailbox in the teleportation room—a letter had arrived.

She walked over and picked up the letter; it was a reply from Teacher Yan Shuang!
She immediately opened it; the letter's contents were, as always, concise and to the point:
"Understood. Come to school today. Go directly to Class 1, Grade 5, Haoyue Building."

Moran didn't dare to delay. He quickly tidied himself up, changed into clean combat clothes, and went to the public teleportation hall to use the teleportation array.

More than a year has passed, and the fourth-grade students who were originally training and studying in the Starry Sky Building have now moved to the fifth grade and moved to the Bright Moon Building next door.

Following the instructions in the letter, Moran easily found the classroom of "Fifth Grade Exploration Class One" inside Haoyue Building.

Pushing open the classroom door, just like before, the desks and chairs were already set up, but no students had arrived yet.

She went straight to the back of the classroom and found her seat.

After being "absent" for more than a year, missing many important school ranking exams, it's already a miracle that she was able to retain her spot in Class 1 of the Detective Academy. These seats are assigned according to ranking, and since she didn't take any of the exams, she must have been moved to a position that symbolizes the "bottom of the class".

"Huh? Where is she?" Moran found Zhu Rao's name in the last seat, but there were no other seats with her name on them.

She kept walking forward until she reached second place, where she finally found her name. "Third? How come I'm still third?" Moran exclaimed in surprise.

The rankings of the others were not much different from the initial talent test results; none of the twelve people fell out of the top tier.

Soon after, the students arrived one after another.

When everyone saw Moran sitting in his seat, they were first taken aback, then burst into a small commotion and cheers of surprise.

"Molan? You're back?!"

"Oh my god! I'm so glad you're alright! I heard you went into the super dangerous Mirror Space!"

"It's been so long, how have you been?"

The students gathered around, expressing their concern and welcome in a flurry of chatter.

Mo Lan then learned that Chen Xingye, who currently had the highest level of mental strength among them, was only at the ninth level of the first star. Lin Yue was slightly worse than him, at the peak of the eighth level of the first star. Su Yu and Zhao Wuchen had just broken through to the eighth level of the first star.

The reason she was able to retain her third-place position was because the result of her mental strength test in front of Teacher Yan Shuang more than a year ago would still rank her third in the class today.

Moran responded to everyone's concern with a smile, speaking gently but maintaining an appropriate distance, simply explaining that she had spent more time in the secret realm in order to hunt the Mirror Beast.

The class bell rang, and everyone returned to their seats. Teacher Yan Shuang appeared on the podium.

Her gaze swept across the class, lingering on Moran for a mere fraction of a second, but she offered no comment on Moran's return, instead pulling out a stack of papers:

"This is the 'National Exploration Academy Entrance Examination Application Form.' Everyone should fill it out carefully and hand it to me. The school will then submit it to everyone to complete the registration."

The forms were handed out, and the classroom was filled with the rustling sound of people filling them out and suppressed excited chatter.

Moran also picked up a pen and smoothly filled in her information.

The form is very simple, containing only information such as name, age, place of origin, school, talent test results, and email address number; even the level of mental strength does not need to be filled in.

After all, the national entrance examination for the Mirror Academy has always focused on practical Mirror Detection skills, with scores based on the number of Mirror Beasts hunted.

I filled it out and submitted it in no time.

After everyone submitted their registration forms, Teacher Yan Shuang gave some tips on preparing for the final three months of the exam, and then the get out of class ended.

"Moran, come with me."

Amidst the curious gazes of the others, Moran followed Teacher Yan Shuang to her private training ground.

Yan Shuang closed the door, cutting off all outside sounds, then pointed to the high-precision mental strength testing device on the side of the training ground and looked at Moran: "Now, test me."
