High-level martial arts: Starting with a heart of steel, stats crush everything.

"I'm not surprised you rejected me, but such a lame excuse is a bit disrespectful."

Chu Tianhua shook his head and gave a wry smile. He had only tried to persuade Chen Mo. It was good that Chen Mo agreed, but there was nothing he could do if he didn't.

But he never expected that Chen Mo would come up with such a reason to reject him.

"That's not a reason, I really wanted to take a bath with the energy liquid."

Chen Mo panicked. Could it be that Chu Tianhua really didn't have that much energy liquid?

Although he has two cubic meters and five hundred kilograms of energy liquid, he cannot guarantee that this amount of energy liquid will be enough to energize his steel marrow.

"Are you serious?"

Geng Lianhu stopped laughing and turned to look at Chen Mo.

Qiu Wushuang, who was standing to the side, seemed to remember something and turned her head away somewhat awkwardly.

She just said it casually, but she didn't expect the child to take it seriously...

"Otherwise, Governor Qiu told me about this..." Chen Mo had barely finished speaking when Qiu Wushuang covered his mouth.

"Kid, soaking your body in the energy liquid can energize the steel marrow, but that only happens after the steel marrow has been tempered. Even if you soak it now, it won't have any effect."

"Not necessarily, you can temper your steel marrow while soaking..."

Geng Lianhu is also unreliable; he has already begun to consider the feasibility of this matter.

"Alright, this farce is over." Chu Tianhua couldn't take it anymore; the person who came was making it sound so real.

"I just examined Chen Mo's body, and there are no problems with either his mental strength or his physical body."

"If you ever find the feeling of using that ability again, then use it boldly and confidently, and then record that feeling."

"If you have nothing else to say, then get lost. I'm tired."

Chu Tianhua waved his hand, as if to say goodbye.

He was indeed exhausted, both mentally and physically.

"You said it yourself, if anything happens I'll come to you for treatment of Chen Mo."

After hearing Chu Tianhua's answer, Geng Lianhu felt relieved and left the research center with Chen Mo.

"Get some rest tonight. After the assessment tomorrow, bring Gu Feng and the others to the conference room."

"I have something important to tell you."

Geng Lianhu looked serious, and Chen Mo nodded obediently in response.

"Okay, go ahead."

...

The next day, the moment Chen Mo got out of bed, he saw Gu Feng standing straight at the door.

"What are you doing there?"

Still half asleep, Chen Mo sat up in bed and walked over to Gu Feng, nudging him.

"Don't touch me, I'm swimming in the ocean of knowledge."

Gu Feng pushed Chen Mo away, his eyes blankly staring at the sky outside.

"Ah... I feel it, the call from the god of wisdom and the star of literature!"

"With the blessings of the God of Wisdom and the God of Literature, I will surely become the king of exams!"

"Hehehehehehe!"

"You've switched channels, haven't you?" Chen Mo took a step back. Could this guy be suffering from a mental breakdown due to studying too much?

Is the pressure really that great?

"Let's go. He memorized everything I've been teaching him last night. I'm afraid he'll forget it if I bother him any longer."

Yang Zuo sighed helplessly; even he could sense that Gu Feng was acting strangely.

The three of them quickly walked into the lecture hall, where Ma Wanglin and He Miao were already waiting for them.

Also present were Geng Lianhu and several professors, who all smiled and watched Chen Mo and his companions without saying a word.

After Chen Mo and the others found their seats, Professor Wei picked up the exam paper and stood up.

"Today is the assessment day. I hope everyone can pass the assessment and return to the Great Xia Grandmaster Academy."

"If you fail the assessment, you will have to keep retaking it until you pass."

"The assessment will now officially begin!"

After distributing the four exam papers to the five students, Geng Lianhu and several professors began proctoring the exam.

......

The assessment officially ended at 3 PM.

Chen Mo roughly estimated his score; passing was definitely not a problem, but the score wouldn't be too high.

"How did you guys do on the exam?"

Turning to look at Ma Wanglin and the others, Chen Mo asked.

"It's alright, at least it's qualified."

Ma Wanglin nodded. As a top-tier test-taker from Xishan Province, she was confident in her test-taking abilities.

"I think I got one question wrong in Abyss Language, so it looks like I won't get a perfect score this time."

He Miao sighed. As a mentalist, her memory was naturally much better than that of a martial artist, so this kind of test was a piece of cake for her.

Yang Zuo's expression was also calm and composed, it seemed that passing this assessment was not a problem at all.

"Where's Gu Feng?" Chen Mo looked around but couldn't find the crazy figure.

However, in the area before the valley peak, I saw a grayish-white mass, which appeared to be something that had burned out.

"Hmph hmph hmph..."

The burnt-out object suddenly laughed, startling Chen Mo so much that he almost punched it.

"I'm determined to pass the test this time!"

"I never want to take exams again..."

After saying this, the last trace of color on Gu Feng's body completely disappeared, indicating that he had burned out completely.

"Is he crazy?" Ma Wanglin frowned. It was just a small test, why was he acting like this?

"You have to understand, Master Jing has never experienced this since he was a child, so it's normal for him to be like this."

Chen Mo sighed and patted Ma Wanglin on the shoulder.

"The assessment results are in."

Before the group even left the examination room, the professors on the stage had already finished grading Chen Mo's and the others' exam papers.

"Congratulations, all five of you have passed. You can return to the Great Xia Grandmaster Academy now."

"He Miao's accuracy rate is 99%".

"Ma Wanglin's accuracy rate is 86%".

"Chen Mo's accuracy rate is 81%".

"Yang Zuo's accuracy rate is 80%."

"Gu Feng's accuracy rate is 60%."

Without exception, all five of them, including Chen Mo, passed the test and achieved the passing grade.

"Not bad. It seems that you have not only led the Mountain City Martial Arts Academy to a successful transformation in the past month, but also kept up with your studies."

"And the physical tempering hasn't been delayed either, which makes me very satisfied."

"But..."

Geng Lianhu glanced at the professors, who tactfully left.

"You cannot return to the Great Xia Grandmaster Academy for the time being. I have a small task for you."

"Since we've come this far, let's skip the meeting room and get to the bottom of things right here."
