Chapter 75: The Entrance Exam Concludes, Teleported Back to Qingbei University
A few minutes later, everyone returned to Qingbei University.
"The entrance exam is finally over!"
"This year's entrance exam was really dangerous!"
"Thank goodness, I made it back alive!"
"Each academy holds an entrance exam every year—how could anything go wrong?"
"That's right, I've never heard of anyone dying during an entrance exam!"
"The entrance exam is just a low-level trial; of course, no one dies!"
"I've heard that at the nation's top universities, the trials for professionals above level 30 result in deaths every year!"
"For us, the entrance exam is little more than a joke—no one could possibly die!"
At this moment, Qingbei University was bustling, with everyone enthusiastically discussing the events of the entrance exam. Naturally, the person they talked about most was Yang Feng. If not for him, they would still have been facing off against the students from Modu University.
As for whether they could have seized the replica from Modu University's team in the end, that remained an unknown. After all, Modu University had sent a formidable exorcist to participate in the exam this time.
Gu Panpan looked pale; the long period of teleportation had left her feeling physically unmoored.
"Next time we have an exam, I’m definitely picking somewhere closer. If it’s too far, I’m not going!"
Gu Panpan slumped bonelessly into a chair, looking utterly languid.
After returning, Lin Xue visibly relaxed, a hint of a smile appearing on her face.
Turning to Yang Feng, Lin Xue’s expression brimmed with gratitude. "Thank you, Yang Feng. This exam was extremely important to me!"
Yang Feng shook his head. "No need to thank me."
Gu Panpan chimed in, "Xue, you don’t need to stand on ceremony with Yang Feng. He might not talk much, but he’s easygoing!"
She hadn’t known Yang Feng for long, but for some reason, Gu Panpan trusted him implicitly.
"Everyone, quiet!"
Just then, a powerful voice rang out from above.
At the sound, all heads turned upward.
There, suspended in midair, stood a man.
Anyone able to stand upon the void like that had to be at least level 80, and must have completed three class advancements.
At this sight, a wave of respect surged in Yang Feng’s heart.
Any professional who reached level 80 and completed three class advancements would gain the ability to fly.
This applied to all classes, even those of non-combat professions. Of course, there were certain rare professions that granted flight earlier—like the Dragon Knight, who could fly by riding a dragon. But such professions were exceedingly rare.
Gu Panpan whispered in Yang Feng’s ear, "That’s Vice President Zhou Hexuan of Qingbei."
Yang Feng nodded, gazing at Zhou Hexuan with admiration.
Anyone able to complete three class advancements was worthy of respect. He remembered his high school teacher telling him that achieving three advancements was extraordinarily difficult—only one in ten thousand could do it.
Naturally, such a figure deserved Yang Feng’s admiration. People like Sword Saint Li Liushui were few and far between in the entire country.
Zhou Hexuan swept his eyes over the crowd and nodded in satisfaction.
"This year’s entrance exam is over. We are currently analyzing the entire process!"
"Your final results will be sent to your phones!"
"But remember: while results are important, the process matters as well!"
"For you, the most important thing is to overcome fear—that is the purpose of our exam!"
"The fact that you all returned safely, with no casualties, is something we are very pleased with."
"I’ve heard that, during the exam, you encountered professionals from Modu University!"
"We will carry out a thorough analysis of the specific situation!"
"Those who performed exceptionally well during the exam will have a chance to enter our university’s elite academy!"
"Now that the entrance exam is over, take some time to rest!"
With that, Zhou Hexuan turned and left.
Gu Panpan pouted. "It’s always a long speech—so dull. Isn’t there anything new?"
Lin Xue smiled, "He’s encouraging us."
Gu Panpan snorted, "I don’t need his encouragement. So what if we get into the elite academy? It’s not a big deal!"
Lin Xue replied with a smile, "Maybe to you, entering the elite academy is nothing special, but to ordinary students like us, it’s an unattainable dream!"
At that, Gu Panpan fell silent.
She knew very well that Lin Xue’s biggest goal was to enter Qingbei University’s elite academy.
Even within the university, the difference in treatment between ordinary students, those in regular colleges, and those in elite academies was like night and day.
All students dreamed of joining the elite academy.
Lin Xue divided the rewards gained from their run in the replica equally among the group.
Yang Feng also brought out all the gains from the last two replica runs.
Although it had only been him and Gu Panpan in those final two runs, they were all part of the same team.
Once the loot was distributed, Yang Feng and Gu Panpan headed together to the Daxia Exchange Hall.
These items were of no use to Yang Feng; it was better to sell them for Daxia currency.
Gu Panpan had no interest in money, so she gave her share to Yang Feng.
Her excuse was simple: her storage pouch was too small.
Yang Feng knew that was just an excuse, but he didn’t refuse and accepted everything.
After this entrance exam, the two grew even closer.
There was no need to fuss over small matters.
At the Daxia Exchange Hall, Yang Feng sold off everything he didn’t need.
In this run, he had acquired a silver-grade dagger.
Originally, Yang Feng had intended to gift it to Gu Panpan.
But Gu Panpan produced an even better weapon from her storage pouch.
Though it was also a silver-grade dagger, the one Gu Panpan had was of higher quality.
Typically, professionals below level 10 used black iron equipment.
Those below level 20 used bronze equipment.
