[Chen Mobai, 345 points]

After struggling to check his score for quite a while, the rare visitor Chen Xinglan burst into laughter.

Son, with this score, you’re sure to secure a place in one of the top ten academies.”

“Blessed by our ancestors, I am going back to my hometown tomorrow to burn incense for them.”

The elated Tang Panchui couldn’t help but shed a few tears. Neither in the history of the Chen family nor her family, had anyone managed to secure admission into the top ten academies. Chen Mobai’s score was heralding an entirely unprecedented honour for both families.

Returning to her hometown, she can hold her head high with confidence.

“It’s a pity, five more points would have been even better.”

In reality, Chen Mobai initially expected score was around 330 points. He got lucky on the last major question on the formation paper and gained an extra 15 points.

However, it’s in human nature to be insatiable. Once the chance of admission to the top ten academies set in, he found himself wishing that the four great Daoist academies would expand their enrollment and lower the admission score threshold this year.

“Alright, alright. Son, have you decided which academy you want to go to?” Chen Xinglan, ecstatically brandishing the printed score sheet, started inquiring about Chen Mobai’s plans.

“I’m thinking about the Pure Yang Academy or the Primordial Elemental Academy since these two don’t have any particular requirements for the spiritual root aptitude and they have the heritage of the Original Soul Technique.”

“Great ambition, you truly are my son.”

After hearing this, Chen Xinglan couldn’t help but pat Chen Mobai’s shoulder, grinning broadly.

“However, these two academies get the most applications each year, there’s a chance that the cut-off scores might be higher.”

Upon hearing about Chen Mobai’s high score of 345 points that evening, his uncle’s family came over to celebrate and stayed for dinner. Unfortunately, Chen Baolan couldn’t make it as she was in a crucial stage of excavating a ruin. She could only congratulate him through a video call.

“Don’t worry. My son’s score is nearing the threshold for the four great Daoist Academies. Even if the cut-off scores for the Primordial Elemental Academy and Pure Yang Academy are higher, they’ll surely admit him.”

Chen Xinglan had checked the previous cut-off scores for these two academies which were generally above 340. With this year’s expanded intake, Chen Mobai’s score could be said to have safely secured his admission.

“Brother, you’re so amazing!”

Wang Xinymg looked at him with admiring eyes. Chen Mobai, usually quite composed, couldn’t hold back the joy in his heart under his sister’s gaze.

That night, for the first time in his life, Chen Mobai felt a profound sense of fulfilment. He did not use the “Nourishing Thought Forge supreme-ruler Technique” to dissolve his various emotions. Surrounded by the proud faces of his parents, the praises from his uncle and his wife, and the admiration in his sister’s eyes, he reveled in his triumph.

When he woke up the next day, he found that his supreme consciousness had increased by nearly half.

In his contemplative state, the seed that had just begun to germinate sprouted another shoot, gradually reaching the same level as the green paulownia seedling he nurtured in the Water Mansion.

According to the testing of the “Nourishing Thought Forge supreme-ruler Technique”, his supreme consciousness was nearing the level of an eighth level Qi Cultivation When the contemplation seedling blossoms its first flower, it would represent the supreme consciousness of a fully cultivated Qi.

When the flower bears fruit, it represents the breakthrough of the supreme consciousness from Qi cultivation.

After finishing his morning routine, he sent a message to Qing Nu, planning to meet in the afternoon, and then headed to school.

As soon as he entered the classroom, he sensed something was off.

Why were all the classmate’s eyes on him? The boys looked at him with admiration while the girls regarded him with disdain.

Could it be residual effects from the incident with Qing Nu last time? It shouldn’t be, he had explained himself quite clearly.

Old Chen, how have I treated you normally?”

As soon as he sat down, Lu Hongsheng rushed over to the water cooler to fetch a cup of water for him, then looked at him with admiring eyes.

“Get to the point?”

Chen Mobai took the water and drank, knowing that his desk-mate couldn’t keep a secret.

“How are you two-timing!”

“Pfft!”

Chen Mobai couldn’t hold it in and spat out all the water he had just sipped. Seeing that the back of the lovely Yu Shu’s dress at the front desk was about to get wet, all the magic skills he had practiced in Yun Meng Ze came in handy. With a single hand, he performed the Water Controlling Technique, drawing the droplets back into the cup.

“That was a smooth move.”

The classmates at the neighboring table couldn’t help but widen their eyes and clap in amazement.

“What’s going on? Who is tarnishing my good name!”

Chen Mobai turned red in the face and shouted at Lu Hongsheng.

“Didn’t you leave early from our farewell dinner that day? Then Yan Bingxuan followed you out. We didn’t really notice at first.”

“But later, when Gong Xiangyu took their classmates downstairs, he casually mentioned to Qing Nu that he saw you leaving with Yan Bingxuan upstairs Isn’t that stirring up trouble? You should have seen the faces of our class and their class at that time, it was simply splendid!”

“But don’t worry, the expression of your Heavenly Spiritual Root girlfriend was okay. She didn’t look like she wanted to die or anything, but she has been frowning these past few days. She didn’t bother you, right?”

After listening to this, Chen Mobai was more furious than ever.

“Nonsense! I’ve said so many times that Qing Nu and I are just friends, and as for Yan Bingxuan, we maintain an entirely platonic schoolmates friendship.

How can you imagine that I am two-timing?”

At this point, even the Nourishing Thought Forge supreme-ruler Technique couldn’t calm the turbulent emotions in Chen Mobai’s heart.

“I get it, but I still want to learn from you about how to develop that kind of pure friendship with classmates.”

Lu Hongsheng was clearly clueless. Chen Mobai clenched his fists and managed to calm down after a while.

“Why didn’t you tell me this earlier?”

“I wanted to verify this with you, but you were not answering your phone these days.”

That’s right, for the past twenty days, Chen Mobai had been in Yun Meng Ze honing his skills and Lu Hongsheng’s phone signal couldn’t reach there.

“Well, I wonder if Yan Bingxuan knows about this. I should apologize to her later.”

As Chen Mobai muttered to himself, the two beauties in front of him also turned back around. They evaluated him anew with the same gaze they might use on a scum.

“I heard that the class monitor called Yan Bingxuan when he found out.”

Pu Jiangxue stated and Chen Mobai promptly looked at her.

“Yan Bingxuan said: So it seems that this has affected my reputation.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai heaved a sigh of exasperation.

If it was going to be like this, he should have stayed in the milk tea shop across the street with peace of mind.

“Old Chen…”

Not a few boys from his class gathered around him. Chen Mobai, who usually didn’t attract many eyes, at this moment became a master in everyone’s mind.

Song Zheng sat at his desk, his eyes also on Chen Mobai. But what he saw was not merely the spectacular Water Controlling Technique, but more substantial underlying elements.

Impressive!

Knock knock knock!

At this moment, the homeroom teacher knocked on the door, and all the boys around Chen Mobai returned to their seats.

When Chai Deyun entered, his gaze fell on Chen Mobai as well. But when Chen Mobai thought the teacher was also going to bring up all the gossip, he showed a gratified smile instead and clapped his hands.

“Chen Mobai, congratulations! You got 345 points in the college entrance examination, number one in the whole school!”
