Chapter 24

Zhang Xiaohou glanced at the head teacher, Xue Musheng, and then at their practical class teacher, Tang Yue.

"Work hard, I believe in you," said the practical class teacher, Tang Yue, this time.

Zhang Xiaohou nodded and walked to the side of the Star Sense Stone.

Closing his eyes, Zhang Xiaohou adjusted his breathing, slowly entering a meditative state.

The Star Sense Stone glowed, its light fluctuating with Zhang Xiaohou's breathing. It was clear that Zhang Xiaohou was a bit nervous, and the Star Sense Stone could not fully capture his star energy.

However, Zhang Xiaohou was gradually getting into the state.

Finally, the light stabilized, and the blue wind-element light spread around the Star Sense Stone, even brighter than He Yu's, with only a slight instability, almost flawless.

"A!"

"A!"

"A!"

The three examiners seemed to have different opinions.

"Teacher, can I try again?"

Zhang Xiaohou was clearly not satisfied with this score and entered the state once more.

This time, he was more composed.

The light densely spread around the Star Sense Stone, clearly stronger than He Yu's, and no longer flickered unstably.

The three examiners exchanged glances and all nodded.

"A"

"A"

"A"

"Final score, A"

When the score came out, all the classmates showed surprise and envy.

"Wow, an A, that's a guaranteed spot in the advanced class. Zhang Xiaohou, who usually seems ordinary, didn't expect him to be so outstanding. I underestimated him, I underestimated him."

"Amazing, if I could get an A, my dad would buy me a car."

Head teacher Xue Musheng and teacher Tang Yue also smiled and nodded, their eyes full of approval.

Zhang Xiaohou had always been a student they looked favorably upon, and this score was expected.

"Classmate, that's enough, we will base our decision on..." the bald examiner was about to announce the final result.

"Teacher, I want to take the next test," said Zhang Xiaohou, his eyes determined but his face shy.

"Are you sure?" the examiner asked, somewhat surprised.

"I know that if I rank high in the annual assessment, I will have more time to obtain the Star Dust Magic Tool, so I want to take the release test," Zhang Xiaohou said firmly.

Head teacher Xue Musheng and teacher Tang Yue still smiled, as they had long known that Zhang Xiaohou had already reached the release level.

The exam had two parts.

The first part was the Star Dust test.

Most students could continue their studies at the magic high school as long as they passed this part.

The second part was designed for top students. Out of over a thousand students, about a hundred top students had already touched the release level.

If they could fully release their elemental skills in the assessment, their annual assessment score would naturally increase!

To gain more limited school resources, all students would use their best skills in the annual assessment, no longer hiding anything.

...

Zhang Xiaohou's release test was not particularly smooth. Due to his nervousness, he ultimately failed to connect the seven wind-element star seeds into a star track.

However, the examiners could see that he had already mastered the release but failed due to exam tension. They still gave him some extra points based on his performance.

Leaving the exam room with a hint of disappointment, Zhang Xiaohou kept his head down.

Teacher Tang Yue, like a gentle big sister, patted Zhang Xiaohou's shoulder and said, "Don't be discouraged. With your score, you will definitely get into the advanced class."

"Teacher, I thought I had mastered it well, but a little bit of nervousness made me lose control of the star seeds every time. How do you manage to release magic with just a wave of your hand?" Zhang Xiaohou asked.

"Practice, of course. Besides, mental state is also very important. A qualified magician not only needs a solid foundation but also needs to remain calm in any situation."

Zhang Xiaohou nodded, seemingly understanding.

"Next, Huang Feifeng."

"B!"

"Teacher, I'm an A, I'm an A!"

"Any more noise, and your score will be canceled."

"Next, Luo Si."

"C!"

The student named Luo Si jumped with joy.

For a student like him, getting a C was like celebrating the New Year.

...

In Class 8, students were being tested one by one. Most students scored B or C, with not many A's.

"Look, look, the school leaders are almost here."

"They are at the Class 7 exam room... The one being tested is the lightning-element student."

"Xu Zhaoting, he is definitely the top student in the school."

"Not necessarily, I heard Mu Bai's cultivation is also very high!"

Mo Fan heard the students' discussion and looked towards the Class 7 exam room.

Sure enough, the group of school leaders, including the particularly outstanding Mu Ningxue, had already arrived nearby.

...

"Brother Mu Zhuoyun, this is our school's top lightning-element student, Xu Zhaoting. I, as the principal, have been paying special attention to him since he awakened his lightning element a year ago. He is now taking the release test, would you like to watch?" said the principal of Tianlan High School to Mu Zhuoyun.

The principal's courtesy towards Mu Zhuoyun showed how highly he was regarded in Bocheng.

"Ningxue, let's watch this junior's performance."

"Sure," Mu Ningxue nodded.

Lightning element, the leader of the elemental elements, with its destructive power enough to make other magicians retreat!

In the exam room, Xu Zhaoting, dressed in his school uniform, stood there, adjusting his breathing and managing the pressure of being watched by the entire school.

Since entering the school, he had become the focus of the entire school, and these gazes constantly spurred him to practice hard.

"Follow my command!"

"Elemental leader, lightning!"

"Lightning Seal!"

As the words fell, his hand rose.

Purple lightning arcs suddenly shot up, like soldiers summoned by a snake king, twisting their shocking bodies and scorching the air!

Release!

The lightning arcs fell wildly, striking the human-shaped dummy fiercely.

The dummy trembled violently, turning black from the lightning seal's strikes. The lightning crackled, and the marks lashed out, instantly reducing the human-shaped dummy to a pile of black debris.

On the training ground, black grooves spread out, looking terrifying.

The mangled dummy had become a pile of black ash.

The dominant lightning skill instantly captured the attention of the entire exam room, making even the top students who could also release skills gasp in awe.

My goodness, what wind tracks, water zones, and fire zones are all weak compared to this. The dominance of the lightning seal is simply unmatched by other elements, directly reducing the human-shaped dummy to ashes. This destructive power...

If a person were standing there, they would be dead!
