Chapter 400: Another Three Thousand

This question is relatively simple. As long as you master the 229 materials of Changze Star and are familiar with their medicinal properties, and then compare them one by one with the formula of the third-order universal gene stabilizer, you can answer most of the questions.

Without hesitation, Nan Rong wrote: "Peel. It can replace Astragalus membranaceus in the Federation's universal formula for third-order gene stabilizers. Reason: Both grow in star regions with similar environments and temperatures, and their main components are..."

By the time the 1,500-question written exam was completed, many candidates were exhausted. But no matter how hard they worked, they couldn't stop, because they had to immediately move on to the practical simulation test module.

The preliminary test of this fifth-order mock exam was about synthesizing a third-order gene optimizer.

Upon seeing this question, many test takers froze instantly.

In the past, the practical exam questions in the preliminary examinations were all about third-order gene stabilizers or drugs for a certain gene disease. The more difficult ones were about fourth-order universal gene repair agents.

Third-order gene optimizers have always been a mandatory question in the re-examination.

The increased difficulty of this preliminary exam only indicates one thing: the questions in the re-examination have also become more difficult.

This increased difficulty is also reflected in the supply of materials.

Candidates can collect three sets of materials according to the three-stage gene optimizer formula they are familiar with.

Then, these three basic materials are used for extraction and purification to finally synthesize the medicine.

In other words, even if there are no mistakes in the extraction of the original solution, the success rate of the drug synthesis must reach one-third.

This is a fairly high standard. According to statistics released by the Federal Central Intelligence Agency, the success rate of synthesizing all third-order gene optimizers in the Federation last year was only 3.2%.

There are already few people who dare to challenge the third-tier gene optimizer, and most optimizers below the fourth tier wouldn't even dare to think about it. Therefore, this value basically represents the success rate of synthesis for gene optimizers above the fifth tier.

It's less than one-thirtieth, let alone one-third.

Even if we multiply that probability by three, it would still be enough to eliminate more than 90% of the people.

Therefore, after adding the written test scores, only 5,200 people were ultimately left after passing the preliminary test.

The rankings of all participants' scores were immediately published on the internal network of the Examination Affairs Committee by the Central Intelligence System.

In the lobby on the top floor of the academy's VIP building, seventh-level gene optimizers from various countries were chatting in small groups.

For them, the triennial advanced certification is also a rare gathering where they can catch up and share experiences.

These experiences and insights can only be understood by those at the same level, and their evaluations are just right, so the exchange proceeds smoothly and harmoniously.

As examiners for this advanced certification, they all received a notification from the AI ​​at the same time and looked at the ranking list that popped up on the screen in the center of the hall, which only showed the top thirty people.

Upon seeing this, apart from Patricia and other gene optimization specialists who knew Nan Rong, the other seventh-tier masters all stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with disbelief. After a long while, someone finally couldn't help but speak up.

Regham, a seventh-tier gene optimizer from the Kungu Empire, squinted at Dean Xiong Ren and said, "Your country is truly full of talent. How come someone can get a perfect score in the fifth-to-sixth level assessment?"

The suspicion in his words was almost overflowing.

Another seventh-tier Balvan from the Kungu Empire immediately chimed in, “Regham, you should think before you speak – didn’t you see that person’s name? Ms. Nan Rongnan, now the most famous Cinderella in the entire interstellar space – her reputation is almost surpassing that of your country’s Empress Luo.”

As he spoke, he turned and nodded slightly to the three seventh-tier figures from the Mio Empire:
"Of course, after Empress Luo married His Majesty, who was then the Crown Prince, she did not use this marriage to seek any other honors. This is something that some people should learn from."

The three seventh-tier warriors from the Mio Empire, suddenly drawn into this topic, couldn't help but exchange glances. Their previous silence didn't mean they weren't suspicious.

Everyone here has emerged from the fierce competition to advance from five to six, and they all vividly remember that exam.

A perfect score for advancement? That's simply impossible.

If you can get over 1,000 points on the first 1,500 questions, you'll be able to stand out from the crowd; and if you get over 1,200 points, there have been very few people over thousands of years.

Of course, the most difficult part is the synthesis of the drug. Even if all three of your materials are transformed into three gene-optimizing agents, achieving a 100% success rate, it doesn't guarantee you a perfect score in the practical assessment.

The central AI's scoring criteria for practical assessments are extremely stringent, detailing every single step. Even a emotionless machine that operates entirely according to standardized procedures would be unlikely to receive a perfect score.

Nan Rong, on the other hand, received an unprecedented 3,000 points, more than 1,000 points higher than Lord Sibio, who came in second place.

At this moment, most people present consciously disregarded the possibility that what they were seeing was the real result, and their brains raced, searching for possibilities and methods to cheat by bypassing the central AI.

The most likely explanation is that the Federal Intelligence Agency (FIA) interfered. As a direct agency of the central government, they might not have stood by their decision if the president had given the order directly.

After all, the new president of the Delin Federation is a powerful leader who has made his name and authority through war and bloodshed, and he is not someone who would offer others a choice.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the three seventh-tier warriors from the Mio Empire exchanged glances, and the eldest, Zelenchi, spoke on their behalf.

He was old and shrewd, his small eyes gleaming, and his speech was much more tactful than the previous two:
"Our people dare not speak ill of the royal family, just as you, Master Balvain, would not casually comment on your country's late Queen Tafedo. I believe we can all understand each other on this point."

"As for Ms. Nan's preliminary test results, in addition to the central AI of the Delin Federation, all records will be sent back to the central AI databases of our two countries for three-way verification and mutual review."

"Therefore, I believe that true gold is not afraid of being tested by fire, and we don't need to speculate about things that haven't been resolved yet, which could damage our friendship of many years."

Master Zelensky's words reminded everyone.

Among the three major interstellar powers, the Mio Empire has the most advanced central AI, claiming to be more than a thousand years ahead of the other countries.

Even if His Majesty Tianli of the Delin Federation is powerful, he cannot affect it. If there is any shady business, there is no need to worry that it will not be able to find out.
