Liu Yuan continued with her magic power test.
She extended her hand, palm facing the energy sensor orb.
Unlike the pale cyan energy of E6, a soft blue glow emanated from Liu Yuan's palm, appearing far more restrained.
As the energy poured in, the orb emitted a low hum, its inner light rapidly intensifying.
2000…
2500…
3000…
Finally, the value stabilized at 4280!
Hmm…
A decent result, yet Liu Yuan remained visibly troubled.
Clearly, she hadn’t managed to control the output with precision.
But for a live broadcast, this score was enough to stir a slightly louder wave of murmurs.
"Over 4,200 in magic output—that’s terrifying! Even among sixth-tier practitioners, this would rank as upper-mid level, let alone for someone still at the fifth tier."
"Her magic stats overshadow her strength and speed."
"Pity though. Good score, but bad luck. In previous years, she might’ve secured a decent ranking. This year’s martial exam is just too competitive."
"Ah, compared to those from the capital, we’re still lacking in pedigree."
The examiner recorded the data and announced Liu Yuan’s comprehensive evaluation.
"Examinee E7, basic tests completed. Strength: 6,120 kg, speed: 15.5 m/s, average reaction time: 0.097 seconds, energy output index: 4,280. Comprehensive score: 4,155."
"Temporarily ranked third!"
It was a remarkable result, though due to her early testing slot, she’d inevitably drop many places later.
Still, it secured Liu Yuan a top position in this year’s Jiangxia martial exam.
Yet, following E6’s staggering 5,108 points, her score seemed dimmer by comparison.
At least it barely met Su Qi’s expectations.
Nice, mission accomplished for big bro!
Liu Yuan gave the examiner a slight nod of thanks before turning toward the exit.
E6 had left earlier because watching weaker examinees was, to him, a waste of time.
As for Liu Yuan, she no longer cared much about the exam.
She’d rather use this time to track down Su Qi.
Having spent so many days by his side, she found herself missing him inexplicably after just this short separation.
……
While Liu Yuan’s performance was impressive, it did nothing to shake E6’s dominance.
The live broadcast’s focus swiftly returned to him.
After all, parents loved nothing more than discussing how "someone else’s child" was doing…
"What system do you think E6’s Card Master follows? His strength and speed are insane, but his magic’s a bit lacking."
"Talking about systems at just the sixth tier? Isn’t that something for eighth or ninth-tier elites?"
"Who knows? Capital folks are built different."
"Yeah, yeah. ‘The air in the capital is sweeter.’"
"Obviously. Why else do you think so many flock there as ‘Capital drifters,’ even if it means living in dingy basements? All for that ‘chasing dreams’ nonsense."
"Stats this high… his card quality must be insane!"
"Hey… has Yun Huang started her basic tests yet? When can we see her results?"
Some couldn’t stomach the idea of Jiangxia’s entire martial exam being overshadowed by an "outsider."
Yet, their knowledge of local geniuses was shaky at best. After racking his brain, one anxious spectator could only blurt out "Yun Huang," and so the question hung in the air.
"Hard to say. There are only ten testing fields, and this year’s exam has three to four thousand participants. Bad luck could land her at slot 300 or 400."
Admittedly, the bar to becoming a superhuman was high.
Jiangxia had a settled population of 15 million, yet only 4,000 examinees qualified for the martial exam.
Eyes returned to the massive screen wall, scanning for live updates.
Barely two minutes later—
Just as anticipation peaked, the central feed abruptly switched.
The segmented smaller screens vanished, replaced by a fresh live stream. At its center, bold text declared:
[Testing Field A]
[Examinee: A-11, Yun Huang]
The shift electrified the crowd.
Here she was.
Jiangxia’s future hope!
On screen, a girl no taller than 1.6 meters stood calmly at the testing field’s center.
Her delicate features held a quiet focus, her gaze so inward that the surroundings might as well not exist.
The examiner’s voice rang out: "Examinee A-11, commencing basic tests. First, strength assessment."
Yun Huang stepped before the strength analyzer.
No dramatic stance—just stillness, then a simple extension of her right hand.
No surge of energy, only an aura of terrifying condensation gathering around her.
Numbers on the screen began to climb.
2000…
4000…
6000…
A collective inhale swept through the venue. This pace had already surpassed Liu Yuan’s final score.
The digits raced upward without slowing.
9000…
10000!
"Bzzzt!" The machine groaned heavily, the screen flickering briefly before locking onto a value.
[Strength: 19,352 kg!]
Silence.
A deathly hush gripped the crowd.
Every eye stared at the near-20,000 kg figure, doubting their vision.
This wasn’t sixth-tier Card Master territory—this was seventh-tier, or even elite seventh-tier strength!
From a martial exam candidate?
Seconds later, the venue erupted in a roar ten times louder than E6’s reveal.
E6’s 7,880 kg had drawn awe.
Yun Huang’s 19,352 kg wasn’t competition—it was annihilation.
The examiner’s voice continued, though even he struggled to keep composure.
His words trembled slightly: "Agility test—begin!"
Yun Huang moved.
It was speed beyond description.
Not mere evasion—her motion was a flawless dance of coordination and control.
Or rather, she seemed to charge forward recklessly.
Yet the red lasers bent around her, grazing past by impossible margins.
Meanwhile, blue laser spawn points materialized precisely where her fists landed, struck with unerring accuracy.
The screen’s data refreshed frantically, struggling to keep up.
[Dodge rate: 100%!]
[Strike accuracy: 100%!]
[Reaction speed: 0.061 seconds!]
[Speed: 27.5 m/s!]
Another set of earth-shattering stats!
The crowd’s shock escalated to screams and howls.
"Is this cheating?!"
This wasn’t even the same league of competition.
Finally, the magic test.
Yun Huang raised her palm toward the sensor orb.
No radiant glow, not even the faint cyan swirls E6 had produced.
The orb shrieked with unprecedented intensity, its inner light blazing to critical brightness.
The energy index skyrocketed.
3000…
4000…
5000…
6000!
[Magic Output Index: 7180!]
"Sev… seven thousand?!"
"Her magic output is double that of E6!"
"This is the kind of strength only someone who’s just broken into the seventh rank could have!"
Each of the three basic test results was the kind of data this year’s martial examinees wouldn’t even dare to dream about, no matter how high they stacked their pillows.
It completely shattered everyone’s understanding of what was possible.
E6’s earlier performance now seemed utterly insignificant in comparison to Yun Huang’s.
The examiner’s voice trembled as he announced the final comprehensive evaluation.
"Examinee A-11, basic tests completed. Strength: 19,352 kg, speed: 27.5 m/s, average reaction time: 0.061 seconds, energy output index: 7180. Comprehensive score: 9,326 points!"
[Comprehensive Score: 9,326 points!]
When this number appeared on the screen, the entire venue fell into stunned silence.
Everyone was too shocked by this unimaginable score to speak.
This wasn’t just a record for Jiangxia’s martial exams—it was likely the highest score ever recorded in the history of Great Xia’s martial examinee basic tests!
"This has to be the top scorer in Jiangxia! No—she might even be the top scorer in all of Great Xia!"
"Just now, we were talking about how terrifying E6’s results were… but compared to this, E6 seems like just a slightly talented amateur!"
"This is what a true monster looks like!"
Someone suddenly remembered something, their expression turning odd.
"Hey… didn’t that E6 guy leave looking pretty confident earlier?"
"Yeah, like he had the victory in the bag."
"But compared to Yun Huang’s score…"
"He thought he had first place locked down, only to get completely crushed by an actual freak of nature…"
"Ha! When you think about it, that exit of his… kinda makes him look like a clown, doesn’t it?"
"Strutting off like a champion, only to realize he was just the opening act…"
The laughter in the venue was mixed—part awe at witnessing such overwhelming power, part self-mockery for overhyping E6 earlier, and maybe even a hint of schadenfreude.
On the screen, Yun Huang merely gave the examiner a slight nod before turning and walking calmly toward the exit.
If she didn’t get back to training soon, that woman would start barking at her again.
