Chapter 16 Mu Bai's Achievements
The long-haired teacher nodded and said, "Okay."
Zhang Xiaohou had practiced magic casting with Mo Fan for a long time, so the magic casting test wasn't too difficult for him.
After connecting the seven stars into a star trail, the cyan whirlwind in Zhang Xiaohou's hand gradually intensified, and finally flew out of his hand and crashed into the humanoid target in the distance.
Bang!
The humanoid target trembled violently after being struck by the blue whirlwind.
Several examiners smiled with satisfaction upon seeing this. After stepping down from the platform, Xue Musheng patted Zhang Xiaohou on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Not bad, keep up the good work."
"Yes, I know." Zhang Xiaohou nodded seriously.
"Next up, Huang Wenhua."
A few minutes later, the Star Stone lit up with a blue light, but the light was much weaker than He Yu's.
"C!" the bald examiner said calmly.
Upon hearing this, the student named Huang Wenhua shouted frantically, "Teacher, my assessment should have been an A! There's something wrong with the Star Sensing Stone! There's definitely something wrong with the Star Sensing Stone!"
"Quiet down, or your exam score will be canceled."
The examiner's words were like a bucket of cold water, waking Huang Wenhua from her shouts. After regaining her senses, Huang Wenhua walked down from the platform in disappointment. Compared to the other students who were expelled, Huang Wenhua was considered to be doing relatively well.
"Next up, Xin Mingfang."
"B!"
"Next up, Li Mingliang."
"C!"
As the examiner called out their names, the students in Class 8 completed the assessment one by one. However, most of the students received B or C grades, and there were only four or five students who received an A grade.
Not far away, the principal and Mu Zhuoyun were constantly commenting on the students taking the exam. Mu Zhuoyun would occasionally ask Mu Ningxue to comment on the performance of this or that student.
However, Mu Ningxue coldly replied, "It's alright."
This beautiful ice fairy has such a cold personality, but after seeing Jiang Han and Mo Fan in the back row, a strange light flashed in her eyes.
On the platform, Xu Zhaoting, wearing a school uniform, achieved an S-level score during the Stardust assessment.
Many of the girls below had their eyes sparkling. Under the questioning of the smiling examiner, Xu Zhaoting chose to continue with the magic release test.
"Thunder Seal, Python Mark!!"
Xu Zhaoting raised his right hand, and purple arcs of electricity shot out from his body like pythons, striking the humanoid target in the distance.
The humanoid target, lashed by the purple python, turned charred black, even emitting wisps of smoke. The overwhelming power of the lightning magic shocked many in the arena, except for Jiang Han and Mo Fan.
After glancing at the humanoid target, the examiner said calmly, "Release Rank C!"
Jiang Han curled his lip and said, "This guy's lightning element isn't that great either."
"Well, it's only in your eyes that it's not that great. In other people's eyes, his lightning seal is already quite powerful. After all, lightning magic is the most domineering of elemental magic." Mo Fan looked at Xu Zhaoting on the platform.
Jiang Han's seven lightning-elemental stars have been fully enhanced by his essence. With the blessing of Kun Lei, his level four lightning seal has reached the level of mid-tier magic, and its power is far beyond that of Xu Zhaoting's lightning seal.
·······
"Ning Xue, this student is one of the more talented ones among our students. What do you think?" the principal asked with a smile.
"It's alright." Mu Ningxue glanced at him briefly, then stopped watching Xu Zhaoting on the stage.
In Mu Ningxue's eyes, Xu Zhaoting was nothing special. He was just a lightning-type mage who had awakened his magic for the first time. Students who had awakened their lightning magic were not exactly rare, but they weren't exactly common either. Releasing basic-level magic was just the most basic standard at the Imperial Capital Academy.
The principal and several other school leaders felt somewhat embarrassed after hearing Mu Ningxue's words.
Mu Zhuoyun, as expected of the head of the Mu family, noticed the somewhat awkward expressions on the faces of the principal and several other school leaders.
"Old Han, don't mind her. Ning Xue has been at the Imperial Academy for a long time, so she judges people by the standards of the Imperial Academy," Mu Zhuoyun explained with a smile.
The principal and several other school leaders also took the opportunity to laugh it off and invited Mu Zhuoyun to continue looking at the other students.
The assessment continued, and Zhao Kunsan, one of the students, was quite excited. Why? Because the next person to be assessed was his boss, Mu Bai.
"Go, boss! Show that trash Mo Fan what you're made of!" Zhao Kun shouted loudly.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaohou frowned and was about to retort when Mo Fan stopped him.
Mo Fan shook his head and said, "Don't pay any attention to that guy. After all, we can't stoop to the level of a dog."
"you!!"
Just as Zhao Kun was about to say something, Jiang Han's icy gaze silenced him.
He wasn't sure if Jiang Han would suddenly attack him in the training ground where hundreds or thousands of people were being assessed, but he wanted to avoid provoking that guy if possible.
Mu Bai suppressed his nervousness and adjusted his mindset, placing his hand on the Star Sensing Stone. Gradually, sky-blue starlight shone from the Star Sensing Stone, spreading throughout its surroundings.
"S!"
Upon seeing the starlight emitted by the star-sensing stone, the examiner immediately gave a score.
Xue Musheng was initially envious when the students in the neighboring Class 7 achieved S-level results, but when he saw Mu Bai achieve S-level results, an excited smile appeared on his face.
For someone at the S-level, getting into the top class is a sure thing, and their grades will definitely be among the best in the entire school.
"Wow, Mu Bai actually got an S grade! That's way better than Zhang Xiaohou."
"I think Mu Bai should be able to become the top student in the class."
"First in the class? You've probably forgotten about Jiang Han, haven't you?"
The students, who were originally discussing Mu Bai, unknowingly started talking about Jiang Han, the guy who could cast ice magic very early on.
Amidst the various discussions, Mu Bai's gaze remained steadfast as he stared at the humanoid target. The Stardust Test was merely his most basic assessment; the real test was the magic casting, and he wanted to demonstrate his abilities to all his classmates.
He wanted to show the young lady his strength and get the attention of the family head, Mu Zhuoyun, so that he could obtain more cultivation resources.
"Ice Vines!"
Mu Bai skillfully connected the seven stars into a star trail. The sky-blue starlight flashed, and ice crystals gradually began to condense on the ground, spreading to the humanoid target.
Mu Bai was much more skilled than Zhang Xiaohou when casting basic magic.
Click, click, click~.
Within a few breaths, the ice vines covered most of the humanoid target.
The chill permeated the air, though it was far less powerful than the ice magic unleashed by Mu Ningxue, though it still sent shivers down the spines of the students around the examination hall.
Standing behind Mu Zhuoyun, Mu He smiled and said, "Patriarch, what do you think of Mu Bai's performance?"
"Not bad." Mu Zhuoyun gave a fairly fair evaluation.
After completing the magic release, Mu Bai looked at the family head, Mu Zhuoyun, with a somewhat uneasy feeling. He didn't know if his performance would catch the family head's eye and earn him more cultivation resources.
"Stardust Test: S Rank; Release Assessment: B Rank." The examiner gave the scores after discussion.
This achievement is currently far superior to that of his classmates; even Xu Zhaoting's grades are slightly inferior to his.
The annual assessments were conducted in order of student ID numbers. Mo Fan was number 48, and Jiang Han was number 49. Their assessments were scheduled for last.
