The sweat is mine, but the numbers are all theirs.

Inside the dungeon, a level 29 mid-tier BOSS fell before Xingzhu, allowing her and Lu Yuan to level up once more, reaching level 23.

I leveled up 2 levels in just one morning, thanks to the high experience bonus from skipping several levels.

Lu Yuan smiled, but no matter how you looked at it, the smile seemed somewhat exhausted.

As I returned to the service hall from the copy room, my phone immediately vibrated; it was Li Qun.

He had already made more than a dozen calls, but since none of them answered, he left a text message.

I need to go to the academy.

It should be a matter of assessment.

Thinking of this, Lu Yuan turned and left.

The receptionist, who had initially intended to strike up a conversation, immediately lost her enthusiasm upon seeing this, and looked somewhat disappointed.

Another day without finding an opportunity.

……

Lu Yuan went home first and took Sevier with him, then drove her directly to the Seventh Hospital.

This is much faster than a car, and it's free.

Li Qun was waiting at the door early in the morning, and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Lu Yuan.

"You're finally here! I texted you last night to be at the college before nine, didn't you see it?"

"...I'm busy."

"What are you so busy with? I thought you'd take a break when you got back." Noticing the dark circles under Lu Yuan's eyes, he looked a little worried. "You don't look like you've had enough rest? Are you alright?"

Sylvia scoffed, "With someone nagging me like this, how could I possibly get a good rest?"

"Who started this entanglement?" Xingzhu narrowed her eyes.

Li Qun: "????"

He was a little confused. How could his words have almost caused these two summoned beasts to fight?

No, that won't do. We'll need them for the next few days.

Li Qun quickly changed the subject, "Lu Yuan, the assessment results for the other colleges are out. You got 100 points, leading the top student in the college by 3 points, and you're at the top of the list."

Dean Luo was overjoyed; he laughed non-stop from early morning.

Lu Yuan didn't care much about these things. If his battle hadn't been a bit slow, his score could have been even higher.

And since there are no missions, there are naturally no treasure chests.

As I walked towards the conference room of the Seventh Hospital, I could already faintly hear arguing coming from inside before I even went in.

"What do you mean it's harder for your First Academy? My Seventh Academy's assessment dungeon is a special BOSS with three mid-tier talents."

So what if your hospital's special boss is level 27? I'm asking you, can higher growth potential compensate for the attribute difference caused by the level difference? Huh? Answer me!

"Don't exaggerate the importance of third-tier talents. Our special BOSS in our department only has two mid-tier talents, but their power is incredibly strong, and their growth potential is not much lower than that of a third-tier talent."

"What a joke! Even if a second-tier mid-level cultivator is strong, they're still just a second-tier mid-level cultivator. Lu Yuan even subdued a special boss!"

"You've subdued it, but my college hasn't?" The college president stepped aside, revealing a goblin centurion with green skin and two heads. "What is this? Speak!"

I think it's because Cui Xu, due to his own mistake, gave you a few extra points out of courtesy, which is why you're ahead of our college!

Because the difficulty of the assessment tasks varies among different colleges, the Ministry of Education will adjust the assessment based on the specific circumstances after the task scores are released.

This is why the school president was dissatisfied.

Their first team consists of five perfect classes, including complementary classes that are even stronger, creating a 1+1 greater than 2 effect!

"Liu Tianyu from the first team of my college is also a summoner, a perfect-level one. All three of his summoned beasts are level 26 and have a mid-level talent. Together, they are no weaker than the level 24 special BOSS from your seventh college."

And that doesn't even include the other four. Even these four barely managed to defeat this two-headed centurion. If you let Lu Yuan come, he'd be beaten to a pulp, you know?

"Don't go too far!" Dean Luo's face turned red with anger.

"Excessive? Hmph, let me tell you, since I took over as the head of the hospital, it has remained the same hospital for more than ten years."

And you, Luo Hongde, you'll be the president of the Seventh Academy for life, you can't overthrow my rule, and you can't uphold the reputation of Tianyun City!"

Each word was like a thunderbolt, making Luo Yuan gasp for breath. The head teacher of the Rocket Class behind him quickly told him to calm down.

Just then, click—

The door was pushed open, and Li Qun entered with Lu Yuan and two summoned beasts.

Upon seeing this, the noise stopped, and various scrutinizing and appraising gazes were cast upon Lu Yuan.

Most people believe he is unworthy of his position!

The principal of the First Academy narrowed his eyes. "Didn't you say there were three types of mid-level talents? How come there are only two? Is the Seventh Academy exaggerating?"

The silver-haired girl couldn't be detected, so she must be a formal summoned beast. The remaining silver knight, whose basic information could be seen, was undoubtedly a special boss!

Luo Yuan sneered, "She only reveals her third mid-level talent after her second-stage transformation. What's your name?"

"Alright," the inspector interrupted the two's argument, "Can't you be a little more mindful of your image in front of the trainees?"

It's almost time. Now that everyone's here, let's set off.

"Oh, by the way, Lu Yuan, please stay behind." The inspector smiled kindly.

Lu Yuan nodded slightly. After everyone left, the inspector said, "You should know about the provincial exchange competition, right?"

"Yes, my homeroom teacher told me."

"This year's provincial exchange competition has been brought forward. Hundreds of colleges across the province will send their top three teams to participate. You are the number one team from Tianyun No. 7 College, and you are also the face of our Tianyun City."

"That old guy at the First Affiliated Hospital doesn't recognize your abilities. He's afraid you'll embarrass Tianyun and cause the higher-ups to reduce your resource allocation next year."

"understand."

This composed and respectful demeanor pleased the inspector even more. "I think you're quite good, and so is the mayor."

He took out an identity card. "This is your reward for taking first place in Tianyun. After you arrive, you can use this card to go to the logistics department to exchange for five-star skills, equipment, and even high-level materials."

A five-star skill is worth at least a million!

More importantly, he currently lacks the materials to attempt the powerful Dark Fusion!

Lu Yuan's eyes lit up, and he accepted the ID card. "Thank you, Inspector."

The inspector smiled and said, "Good luck in the provincial exchange competition, but don't put too much pressure on yourself. In previous years, we were only in the middle of the pack."

Those big cities have far more geniuses than we do. Take Yunlong City next door, for example. It has hundreds of perfect professions, more than twice as many as we do. It even has hidden professions.

"Sigh, I can't win."

……

Under the questioning gaze of the school principal, Liu Tianyu looked at the two-headed centurion beside him and asked, "How is it?"

The green-skinned beast grinned, "Neither of them are as strong as me."

One of its War Awareness effects is that it can provide feedback on the danger level of a target, allowing for a direct and accurate assessment of strength, which is much more useful than the ubiquitous detection techniques.

If there is no danger feedback, then they do not have the ability to harm it, unless their talents are all focused on War Awareness, causing War Awareness to enter a protective mechanism.

In other words, excessive danger feedback can directly disrupt the brain's connection, resulting in a lack of response.

But that's impossible.

After all, everyone in the Seventh Academy had witnessed the Silver Knight's mid-level talent, including the Dean of the First Academy himself.

And how could the silver-haired girl who had been fighting her for almost ten hours possibly have a talent level higher than mid-level?

Since they are all mid-level, the Awakening of War cannot possibly fail.

"Hmph, I knew they were trash. We'll have to rely on them for the provincial competition."
