My Identity Is Becoming More and More Astonishing

Countless media personnel, unsurprisingly, began unabashedly singing praises.

Chen Yu blinked, his instinct was to draw his gun, but remembering he had no bullets left, he gave up the idea.

In the huge screen, the long-haired man ascended to the top of the scoreboard.

And for the next twenty or so candidates who took the stage, none could shake his position.

Then, a furry transcendent from an outside clan with cat ears took the stage.

It moved gracefully, its eyes sharp, holding an electronic tablet, tapping the screen. Its fingers moved at lightning speed.

One minute later.

The giant screen behind updated its score.

[**:31 points.]

"Hiss—"

Once again, the crowd gasped in astonishment.

The hot and chubby neighbor immediately took off his coat.

"I've seen it," the chubby neighbor, wiping the sweat from his brow, said to Chen Yu, "It's so fast I couldn't see it. To save my life, I showed it my token."

"Is it a cat?"

"It's probably a leopard."

Unlike the "Ka Xiu clan," this "outside" transcendent didn't stir up any public antagonism. After the scores were revealed, everyone gave friendly applause.

The long-haired man's ranking fell to second place.

"The seventieth-second candidate, ***."

After the "cat woman (leopard woman)" left the stage, the proctor continued to call names.

The chubby neighbor took a deep breath and stepped forward, "It's my turn."

"Good luck," Chen Yu cheered with a clap.

As he took the stage and stood next to the beautiful proctor, the chubby neighbor looked towards the crowd but couldn't see clearly.

Because a row of spotlights were now shining on him.

He was backlit and invisible.

"It's your turn," the female supervisor handed the electronic tablet to the chubby neighbor.

"Thank you, ma'am," the chubby neighbor bowed politely, then took the tablet, examining the array of avatars and connection numbers on it.

[***: 4 points.]

On the big screen, the chubby neighbor's score was displayed accurately.

Applause erupted from below the stage immediately.

The chubby neighbor hesitated, "Huh? Shouldn't I have five points?"

"You ran too far. A total of three points were deducted," the proctor explained with a smile, "But it's enough. Congratulations on graduating successfully."

"Thank you, beautiful sister," the chubby neighbor was sweet-tongued.

"You're welcome. Big fatty," the proctor retorted playfully.

The chubby neighbor: "..."

Amidst the applause, the chubby neighbor stepped down and returned to Chen Yu's side, sighing with relief, "I've graduated. I can start my brand-new life now."

Saying so, he took off his hat to reveal his [Apprentice Ability User] title.

It was visible, the title's color was fading at a rate detectable by the naked eye.

In just four or five minutes, it became [Official Ability User].

"Congratulations," Chen Yu scratched his chin.

During this time.

A few more transcendent individuals took to the stage one after another.

The assessment was now coming to an end.

"Next up, the second last candidate, representative of the Ka Xiu clan, O[YUGF[. (Yilsena)."

People in the audience turned their heads, focusing their gaze on an exceptionally tall centaur.

It walked onto the stage with a rhythmic clip-clop of its hooves.

Soon, it tossed all the tokens hanging around its waist onto the ground.

"Clatter."

They piled up into a small hill.

The audience members' pupils contracted sharply.

The proctor also frowned slightly.

After a moment of silence, she gestured, and the monitors rushed over, silently counting the number of tokens.

[O[YUGF[. (Yilsena): 27 points.]

The giant screen showed changes in the rankings.

The long-haired man dropped to the third place.

The hall once again fell silent enough to hear a pin drop.

Every Transcendent candidate present had a complex expression on their face.

Just these two groups alone had killed at least 40 people.

It was unclear how many of these Tokens belonged to "foreign races." But it was certain that the majority were human.

At this moment, all the people watching the live broadcast felt their "enjoyment" accumulated from the long-haired man's performance instantly vanish.

Not just because of the forty Transcendents who had died.

But also because of the despair over how insignificant and feeble their civilization was.

"Swish."

The centaur stepped down, indifferently trampling over the blood-stained Tokens, not caring about the humans' reactions.

In its eyes, humans were no different from other inferior races.

Just insects to be crushed at will.

"..."

After a long silence.

The invigilators cleaned up the Tokens from the ground, and the chief examiner, a beautiful woman, turned her head, her gaze fixed on Chen Yu, her lips slightly parting, "The last one. Human Transcendent, Chen Yu."

"It's your turn, Yu," urged the chubby neighbor.

Chen Yu nodded, his expression calm, neither humble nor arrogant as he stepped onto the stage.

As he was the last one.

The crowd's attention was extremely focused, all eyes "shhh-ing" intently on him.

Inside the major live-streaming rooms, the comment section fell silent once again.

"Take this," the chief examiner handed a tablet to Chen Yu.

Chen Yu took it and inspected the tablet in his hands.

On the upper half of the screen, the avatars of 133 reference candidates appeared.

The bottom half displayed numbers from 1 to 133.

The rules were easy to understand.

You just had to tap on an avatar and then link it with the corresponding number below.

For each correct link, you'd score one point.

"Chen Yu, do you know why you were arranged to go last?" asked the chief examiner, her trademark smile fading as she spoke softly.

"Pretty much," nodded Chen Yu.

"Then let's begin," the chief examiner extended her hand, "I personally respect all of your choices."

Chen Yu scratched his elbow and tapped twice on the screen with his index finger.

"Click, click."

The links were correct.

Score +2.

Then he stopped and looked at the chief examiner beside him.

Seeing this, a hint of regret poured out unchecked from the beautiful eyes of the chief examiner.

Chen Yu then looked towards the audience below.

All was pitch black and utterly silent.

Not a sound to be heard.

"Click, click."

Grasping the tablet, Chen Yu dusted off his hands, which weren't actually dusty, and then began to play the piano frantically in the midst of the increasingly shocked expressions of everyone present.

"Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang—"

The tablet screen was almost shattered from the tapping.

As a Transcendent.

One could trust one's memory capacity.

All 133 candidates, all the numbers, not a single one missed.

"Done."

The last fingertip directly smashed through the screen, piercing the tablet.

The next moment, a brand new score appeared on the massive screen taking up half the hall.

[Chen Yu: 132 points.]

"Boom!"

It was like a nuclear bomb had cleansed the land!

The whole place shook as if the sky had collapsed and the earth had split open.

...
