Ninth class citizen

Chapter 361 Perfect Score Advancement
If the previous ion oscillations were just strong winds and torrential rain, this one is a hurricane and tsunami, roaring and raging, determined to completely destroy those mental energy grids.

Everyone present was a high-level gene optimization specialist, and they immediately understood what had happened.

"My God! It's an ion storm!"

"What a terrible coincidence!"

"What a waste of such a perfectly good potion!"

"But it's alright, we still have two more chances."

Unlike the others' regret, a faint smile appeared on Hei Mukan's lips.

"The little girl is still too competitive. Even now, she still doesn't want to give up?" he said slowly.

Ms. Patricia frowned deeply.

"Quickly, stop immediately!" she said anxiously, forgetting that her voice couldn't be heard through the screen. "One potion is fine, but it will be too late if the ion storm backfires on your mental sea!"

The others also realized what was happening: "Right, why hasn't she severed the mental connection yet?"

"Almost ten seconds have passed, which exceeds the effective exit time of the ion storm!"

Patricia bit her lip and said urgently, "Chairman Greg, please activate your examiner privileges immediately to suspend the assessment!"

Gregor's expression was equally serious. One of his former favorite disciples had perished in an ion storm, so he knew all too well its dangers.

Moreover, from another perspective, he certainly didn't want to see His Majesty the President's beloved fiancée get into trouble at the certification exam site.

Even before Patricia spoke, Chairman Greg had already conveyed the order to Nanrong to forcibly disconnect from the sensors.

But judging from the current footage, the other party seems to have completely ignored his instructions.

Could it be that we're already trapped?
The mere thought of this possibility sent beads of cold sweat through the foreheads and backs of both Patricia and Greg, their fingers unconsciously clenching into fists.

Unfortunately, Heimukan took advantage of the situation at this crucial moment.

"It's probably too late." He smiled, but sighed insincerely. "Such a rare talent, but his personality is a bit too soft. If he could make decisive moves, things wouldn't have come to this."

"Slap!" Patricia couldn't hold back and slapped him hard across the face. "Shut up!"

This elegant and dignified lady, known for her grace and poise, physically assaulted someone for the first time in her life.

But once the beating happened, it happened. While Ms. Patricia rarely acted like a second-class citizen, it didn't mean she would actually submit to such treatment.

However, she was not a martial artist and her strength was not great, so she was unable to cause any real damage to Hei Mukan.

It doesn't cause much harm, but it's extremely insulting.

Hei Mukan glared at her hatefully, but her two bodyguards strode forward and blocked his view with stern faces.

Since the attack on Planet Hilo, the Campbell family has raised Patricia's security level. Both of her guards are skilled in both martial arts and physical combat, with one reaching the sixth rank of martial artist—far superior to the physically weaker gene optimizers. Within the Federation, hierarchy is strictly enforced.

Even if Blackwood is only a fourth-class citizen, and even if it is promoted to a third-class citizen, it can only swallow its anger.

"It was my slip of the tongue that offended Your Excellency Patricia." He lowered his head, concealing the hatred in his eyes.

"Oh my god! Look!" Deng Hailun's voice rang out, drawing everyone's attention back to the big screen.

The terrifying storm that had previously swept across the land has now subsided without anyone noticing.

The screen was filled with soft, bright grass-green fluorescence, like a spring breeze and rain, gentle and warm.

On top of that grass-green fluorescence, active molecules are scattered like stars.

Their bodies are covered with a beautiful, pale golden film, full of vitality, and they are spinning merrily along some strange trajectory.

“This is…” Patricia’s eyes widened, her lake-green eyes overflowing with joy.

Greg's pupils shrank to a tiny, round, brownish-gray dot. In that instant, he suddenly remembered that extremely beautiful gene evolution fluid, shimmering with rose gold and pink pearlescent light.

Could it be that an ion storm is the prerequisite for obtaining the gene evolution fluid? But apart from someone as gifted, bold, and meticulous as Nan Rong, who else would dare to take such a huge risk and actively confront an ion storm?
Amidst everyone's horrified gazes, the image on the screen finally faded, indicating that the potion synthesis was complete.

After several minutes of testing, the central AI submitted its final results.

"One bottle of Tier 2 Grade A Gene Evolution Fluid, and a practical exam score of 2000. The total score for this exam is 5000 points. Congratulations to candidate Nan Rong for passing this Tier 5 certification with a perfect score! Please proceed to the certification hall on the 18th floor of the association to collect your badge."

The monitoring room was completely silent.

"Um, did I hear that right? That potion just now was a Tier 2 A-level gene evolution fluid?" Deng Hailun was a little dazed.

“That’s right.” Jose’s voice was also ethereal, and his eyes were quite unfocused: “It really is the gene evolution fluid, the one that Master Potter once created.”

"But even Master Potter, who spent his entire life, never synthesized a Grade A gene evolution fluid, right? And that Ms. Nan is so young—compared to that, we've probably wasted our lives!"

Sharp's focus, however, was on another aspect: "Ms. Nan can even handle ion oscillations with ease, so what can't she do? Does that challenging question on the written test still need verification?"

"Why not?" Hei Mukan immediately came to his senses and said, "Nan Rong's success with the ion storm was just a fluke. If the central AI makes a misjudgment, that would be a big deal. Have you ever thought about whether that second-tier potion was really a second-tier A-grade gene evolution fluid?"

“What do you mean?” Patricia’s eyes narrowed. “In such a short period of time, you have already questioned the central AI twice.”

"Shouldn't we question this?" Hei Mukan retorted, "Master Potter's gene evolution fluid was endorsed by His Majesty Tian Zhengze. And Nan Rong? A young woman not even twenty years old, can casually synthesize a potion that surpasses Master Potter's?"

"So what?" Patricia laughed in exasperation. "You're not saying you want to try this potion yourself, are you? Don't dream about it! Believe me, if Nan Rong is willing to sell it, there are plenty of people willing to pay a high price for it!"

That's for sure; they might even end up fighting tooth and nail.

Hei Mukan did not doubt this, but he could never admit it.

“I wouldn’t dare use such random drugs,” he said. “The method to verify the reliability of the central AI is quite simple. Just follow the original plan and ask Ms. Nan to synthesize a fourth-order universal gene repair agent.”
