In an instant, Tang San's hands burst forth with white light, the white crystal becoming as resplendent as a diamond. The intense radiance filled every corner of the crystal, this was clearly the sign that he was about to reach level thirty.
The teacher in charge of the test had a hint of a playful smile on his face, "It seems that our Slark Academy is going to welcome another little monster this year."
Tang San smiled and handed the crystal in his hand to Xiao Wu. He didn't want others to gossip about Xiao Wu, and he had absolute confidence in her.
The same white light flashed again, completely shutting the mouths of other examinees. The gazes directed at Tang San and Xiao Wu also turned strange all of a sudden.
Twenty-ninth rank, reaching twenty-ninth rank soul power at twelve years old, is this a level that human strength can achieve?
However, the title of monster didn't just appear on Tang San and Xiao Wu's bodies.
"A clear voice sounded, 'Teacher, I think, I should also be exempt from the second and third levels.'"
The one who spoke was the girl who had passed the registration test before Tang San and Xiao Wu, causing the first examiner to be surprised. It was only now that Tang San and Xiao Wu truly saw her appearance. She had short hair that reached her ears, extremely pale and delicate features, a figure that wasn't as fiery as the Ice Cold Beauty, but very harmonious, giving people an otherworldly feeling. No matter how you looked at her, she seemed like a noble young lady who had received higher education.
If the last girl who came in was an iceberg, then she was a warm spring breeze, her gentle smile infecting everyone around her.
Smiling, she walked up to Xiaowu and nodded at her. Xiaowu subconsciously handed the crystal over to her.
A bright white light reappeared, although it wasn't as intense as Tang San and Xiao Wu's, but it still far exceeded the standard of a twenty-five level soul master, roughly around twenty-six levels.
Just as she was about to ask the test teacher if she could also go directly to the fourth level, she suddenly discovered that the crystal in her hand had disappeared. Another figure had quietly appeared beside her, and then a bright white light flashed again. The light was even stronger than when she infused her soul power, exactly at the level of 27th-level soul power.
This sudden appearance was none other than the icy girl who had followed Dai Mubai and arrived here last.
The teacher's face revealed an uncontrollable surprise, "Monsters appear every year, and this year is particularly numerous. Suddenly there are four of them. Alright, alright, it seems that I have hope for a salary increase. Mubai, take the four of them to the fourth level together."
"Yes." Dai Mu Bai respectfully replied, his evil eyes gazing at the icy girl with some complexity before turning around and walking towards the inner part of the academy. This time, no other students raised any objections. Strength had proven everything.
Among the four examinees, only Tang San and Dai Mubai got along relatively well. As they walked in, Dai asked, "Big Brother Dai, are there only four trials for the entrance exam?"
Dai Mu Bai nodded and said, "There are a total of four levels. You have already experienced the first level, which is to eliminate those with soul power below twenty-one or above thirteen years old. This level filters out the most people. The second level is to conduct soul power assessment and martial soul appraisal. Having strong soul power alone is not enough to prove future development potential. This level mainly detects martial souls, and only soul masters who have sufficient development potential and correct development direction in previous cultivation can enter the third level. Of course, if the martial soul is extremely special and unusual, it can also be selected. Like Little O, he was selected in this way at first."
For Dài Mùbái's words, Táng Sān easily understood, after all, the master had instilled many ideas in him in this regard. The same martial soul, with different development directions, will have different achievements in the future. This second pass mainly screens the strength and weakness of these examinees' martial souls themselves, as well as whether the first two soul rings may conflict and affect their future cultivation.
"Dai Gege, but my martial soul is Blue Silver Grass. It should be one of the martial souls with the least potential for development. Why..."
Dai Mu Bai smiled brightly and said, "You don't have to be modest either. Don't I know about your abilities? The academy has a rule that if the soul power of an examinee exceeds level 25, then regardless of what their martial soul is, they can directly pass the second and third tests. It's like one strong move can defeat ten weaker ones. Even if your martial soul itself is not of high quality, but your soul power far surpasses others, relying on the advantage of your soul power, you will still become a powerful Soul Master."
"Xiao Wu couldn't help but ask: 'What is the third level of the exam?'"
"The third pass is to test the candidate's application of their own martial soul. Having only soul power and development potential is not enough, but also needs to have control over one's own martial soul. The higher the level of the martial soul, the harder it is to control, and problems can easily arise. If the control over the martial soul cannot reach a certain degree, then this proves that the soul master himself is not diligent enough. We will not accept such students either."
Tang San immediately understood what he meant, Dai Mubai was right, some martial souls were very difficult to control, just like his second martial soul, that strange hammer, its weight was enormous, and as his soul power increased, the weight of the hammer also continued to increase. Tang San asked himself, even if he used the Whirlwind Hammer Method in its peak state, he could only swing the hammer three times.
Before Xiaowu could ask again, Dai Mubai directly explained the fourth trial. "The fourth trial is to test actual combat experience. Some students have a good martial soul and control over their martial soul isn't bad either. But they've been living in aristocratic families since young, growing up in a honey jar. They don't understand anything about the outside world, let alone fighting. The academy doesn't accept such students either. The principal has said before that those who are spoiled are not allowed."
