My Identity Is Becoming More and More Astonishing

One minute later.

Accompanied by a crisp "ding" sound, the stone doors on both sides slid open. A wave of noise instantly hit everyone's face.

The hall was already teeming with people.

On the outer circle were the staff and various proctors.

In the inner circle were reporters and bloggers armed with long and short cameras.

The central area was reserved for the few dozen candidates participating in this graduation assessment.

Chen Yu adjusted the steel helmet on his head, slung his backpack, and squeezed into the crowd, using his sturdy body to push his way into the core.

"Have all the candidates arrived?"

Among the continuous flashes, the chief examiner, with her ethereal beauty, lightly touched her hair and said to the examiner beside her, "Broadcast one more time. Then start the scoring."

"Yes."

The examiner nodded vigorously and forced his way out of the crowd.

The next moment, a deafening broadcast resonated above everyone's heads once again.

"Repeating for the last time, all candidates, please gather in the first-floor hall!"

"Click, click—"

The sound of photographs being taken intensified at the scene.

Several presenters also faced the cameras and began reporting, "Okay, viewers in front of the TV, as you can see, the ranking of the graduation assessment venue is about to be released..."

"This assessment has seen the most participation from foreign clans in nearly two decades. Especially with the arrival of the 'Ka Xiu clan,' the credibility of this assessment has been raised several levels..."

"The dangers of the Transcendent realm are indescribable. A total of 134 Transcendents participated in this test, but as everyone can see, only seventy to eighty of them are standing here. And this is just the lowest F-to-F level test. What kinds of trials have those who made it to the C, B, and even A levels endured? We really must thank these guardians of humanity..."

"... The scores are about to be released. In previous years, the highest score averaged 20 points, with a historical record of 34 points. Although the scoring method adopted in this session included the first three days of preparation, the credibility of this assessment is also higher. We hope that our human candidates will perform their best. Reporting live from the scene for you."

"Great winds rise, clouds soar! The civilization of mankind shall certainly fly..."

The scene was so noisy that Chen Yu was forced to cover his ears.

In this world, humans do not have the Spring Festival Gala.

The annual graduation assessment is their Spring Festival Gala.

At this moment, the combined viewership of all the media and live broadcasts had captured at least seventy percent of the total human population.

Truly a grand event of civilization.

"Alright, let's end the time."

After the broadcast, the chief examiner waited another two minutes, glanced at her wristwatch, and waved, "Scoring officially begins. Let me explain the rules beforehand."

"First, all candidates must come forward in order, face away from the crowd, and fill in the token numbers of other candidates that they know."

"Second, each correct entry earns one point." Find adventures at empire

"Third, the number of times you can enter is unlimited. However, you can only make a mistake once. If you make a second incorrect entry, you are directly disqualified. Please do not fill in randomly."

"Fourth, after all candidates have their scores totaled, they will be ranked by score. The top twenty will advance to the arena competition."

"Finally, that's all."

The chief examiner paused briefly, facing hundreds of cameras and thousands of people, and flashed a radiant smile, calling out, "The first candidate to come to the stage, from the human race, ***."

A male Transcendent, his head wrapped in a bandage and with a stern face, stepped onto the stage.

Instantly, the venue fell silent.

His steps were firm as he approached the chief examiner and took the electronic tablet handed to him, quickly pressing on it according to his memory.

Throughout the process, a strange fog surrounded the man, blocking all prying eyes and cameras.

[One mistake!]

An electronic synthesized sound instantly exploded.

Everyone, including many viewers watching the live broadcast, was startled.

And so the male Transcendent finished filling in the form and handed the tablet back to the chief examiner.

Indeed. The last mistake was a wild guess.

After all, everyone had one chance to make a mistake.

Perhaps it would be correct by chance, earning 1 point for nothing.

Luck is part of the assessment, after all...

In front of everyone, and behind the chief examiner, a massive screen suddenly lit up.

The name of the first Transcendent who came on stage appeared remarkably!

Next to his name, the number "6" was clearly written.

"6 points!"

"Sure."

"He got the numbers of six people. Impressive,"

"It's seven. Don't forget the distance from the starting point to the endpoint is eleven kilometers, he's bound to lose at least one point."

"Maybe he could make it into the arena competition."

"This big shot participated in the assessment last year but was eliminated because of a -3 score,"

"Damn? Why is he so fierce this year?"

"Awesome, awesome..."

The crowd on-site suddenly erupted.

In the various live broadcast rooms, comments and bullet chats were flying fast.

Admittedly.

Human society still has many contradictions.

Towards the Transcendents, a group so high above, the distance with the general populace is also too great.

But no matter what, humanity is still a whole.

The first Transcendent of the human race to settle scores got off to a flying start, satisfying many viewers.

After all, no matter how downtrodden a miner, mention the ore output of their company, and they'll proudly straighten their backs.

"Clap clap clap—"

Applause gradually thundered through the hall.

Congratulations to this Transcendent.

The male Transcendent also managed a faint smile, nodded to the crowd and the cameras below, and walked off the stage.

"Ok." Holding a tablet, he cleaned the fingerprints off it with a professional tool, the examiner spoke aloud once more, "Next up, human race, **."

The applause quickly stopped.

Everyone held their breath, watching another Transcendent step up to the stage.

This Transcendent didn't have many injuries.

But he didn't have many points either.

He just tapped on the electronic tablet's screen a couple of times.

The second tap was still an "Error!"

Then, his score was displayed on the huge screen for all of humanity to see.

"***: 1 point"

"..."

For a few seconds, the venue fell silent.

Then, warm applause broke out.

Camera shutters clicked continuously too.

"1 point is still good."

"Right, at least he graduated."

"Passing is good enough. That thing is like Gil, having too much of it is useless."

"Not necessarily. Maybe later he'll lose to someone, and his number will be asked. Then he'll lose 1 point and sit at zero."

"Maybe several people know his number. He could drop to negative points."

"If you two can't speak properly, then don't,"

At the core of the crowd, Chen Yu clapped nonchalantly, turned his head, and asked his chubby neighbor, "What's the historical record again?"

"Ah? Yu? When did you get here?"

"Just arrived."

"I even called you just now, and it was off." The chubby neighbor wiped the sweat from his face, saying, "Man, I'm a bit nervous. Even though I know my score definitely won't make it to the arena competition, I still wonder what if."

"I'm asking you. What's the record?" Chen Yu pressed.

"Didn't a presenter just mention it? 48 points."

"Oh."

Chen Yu nodded, "Just the right amount of change I need."
