Chapter 27 - Lin Feng’s Performance
Chapter 27: Lin Feng’s Performance
Chen Beiguo suddenly realized he had fallen into Qin Xian’s trap! Could it be that Qin Xian had deliberately forced Chen Lingxi to guarantee Lin Feng’s participation in the college entrance exam yesterday?
Was it intentionally done to arouse his suspicion, so that all his attention would be focused on the Temple of Divine Revelation here?
Under normal circumstances, the East Sea team of the Security Council would be patrolling the East Sea City continuously. If there was any anomaly, they would issue a warning and intervene immediately.
But today was the college entrance exam, and coupled with what happened yesterday, it made Chen Beiguo mistakenly believe that Qin Xian would play some tricks on Lin Feng to target Chen Lingxi and catch him off guard.
So, not only did he come personally to oversee the situation, but the powerhouses of the Security Council were also all focused on the Temple of Divine Revelation, leaving the city of East Sea exceptionally vulnerable!
Under Chen Beiguo’s angry gaze, Qin Xian’s smile remained unchanged, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.
Beside him, Provincial Speaker Yu Feng wore a righteously indignant expression and angrily rebuked He Bin, “Director He, what is going on with your Security Council? A Void Sacrifice Ritual just happened in Chaiyuan Town a few days ago, and now it’s reached the East Sea City area!”
“And today is the college entrance exam! I don’t think you need to remain as the Chief Security Officer!”
He Bin’s face was pale, unable to utter a word, because this incident was indeed the responsibility of the Security Council! His body trembled, with only one thought in mind: It’s over!!
The position of Security Council Director is one of real power in the province, and he had invested so much effort to climb to this position. But now, it’s all ruined!
This is the treacherous nature of the power field, even more dangerous than the Void frontline! A slight mistake leads to an irreversible disaster!
Seeing Yu Feng starting to make things difficult, with a smug smile on his face, Chen Beiguo became increasingly certain that this was Qin Xian’s real objective!
Chen Beiguo gave Qin Xian a deep look and immediately turned to leave, instructing, “Seal the news, don’t disrupt the college entrance exam!”
Although the Void Sacrifice Ritual that erupted in the city center wasn’t large, with only a dozen level 20 Void monsters, he, as the governor, needed to rush to the scene immediately! Otherwise, it would be a grave dereliction of duty!
Chen Beiguo took many security officers from the Security Council and rushed to the incident site. However, he left behind a few security officers and ordered the police bureau personnel to maintain order in the Temple of Divine Revelation.
Seeing Chen Beiguo leading the security officers away and the commotion just caused, some candidates who had not yet undergone the trials in the Temple of Divine Revelation felt uneasy.
A proctor loudly said, “A major traffic accident just occurred in the East Sea City area, but there’s no need to worry! The college entrance exam continues, don’t get distracted!”
Hearing this, the candidates were slightly reassured and continued their assessments.
…..
“What is happening in East Sea?”
On the other side of the grand hall, the academy examiners whispered among themselves, expressing dissatisfaction.
They had heard that a Void cultist appeared in the city center of East Sea last night, affecting many innocent civilians. The excuse of a traffic accident was just to fool the students.
They could all sense the aura of the Void. It seemed that a Void Sacrifice event had also erupted in the city center of East Sea!
Void cultists have always been a chronic disease in the human world, and the occurrence of a Void Sacrifice event is not uncommon. But such events usually happen in the wild or remote towns. The occurrence of a Void Sacrifice event in a big city like East Sea is unprecedented!
In any case, the East Sea Province’s Security Council is sure to be held accountable. Even Governor Chen Beiguo is likely to be significantly affected….
“I wonder if this year, East Sea can produce a few good talents.” An elderly man with white hair stood with his hands behind his back, his expression indifferent, watching the live trials on the large screens.
He wore a long robe, exuding a stern demeanor, with the words ‘Jixia’ embroidered on his chest.
Song Guiyuan, an examiner from Jixia Academy, one of the empire’s three great academies!
“In the past five years, we at Jixia Academy have admitted less than ten candidates from the East Sea Province, mostly from support classes, and very few from combat classes.”
Behind him, a teacher from Jixia Academy said respectfully.
Suddenly, numerous exclamations erupted from the academy examiners in the grand hall.
Song Guiyuan’s expression shifted slightly as he followed the sound.
In one of the trial spaces, the dungeon’s score was continuously rising!
The seven-type combat trial!
The most challenging type of combat assessment, where seven waves of monsters are randomly generated during the trial. Each wave doubles in both quantity and combat power compared to the previous one!
Moreover, the final wave will generate a level 5 rare BOSS, whose danger level is comparable to a level elite 8 monster.
Inside the trial space, a lean figure was darting about, unstoppable. Although he used the most basic general skills like Physical Enhancement and Fireball Technique, these basic skills were employed with extreme proficiency!
Numerous monsters charged at him, yet none could withstand a single strike! The monster corpses beneath his feet piled up into small hills, like a war god!
“Candidate Lin Feng, Number B18-75….”
Lin Feng, the student who failed his job change, instantly became the focal point of everyone’s attention!
“Interesting….” A faint smile of interest appeared on Song Guiyuan’s face.
Outsiders watched the excitement; insiders watched the skill. Although Lin Feng had failed his job change and was merely an SS-level Non-Specialist, the combat power displayed by Lin Feng during the trial was exceedingly outstanding.
Lin Feng’s strength and agility attributes far exceeded that of an ordinary level 4 novice! Not only him, but other academy examiners also began to pay attention to Lin Feng.
“Number B18-75… Lin Feng… temporarily put him on the observation list.”
“Check Lin Feng’s past performance records.”
………..
In the grand hall, seeing many academy examiners paying attention to Lin Feng, Qin Xian revealed a faint smile.
“He’s clever.”
Lin Feng knew he was targeted by Qin Xian and that something would definitely happen on the college entrance exam day. So he directly chose the seven-type combat trial and showcased his strength, drawing all the examiners’ attention.
In this way, it became difficult for Qin Xian to tamper with him….
And Lin Feng, worthy of being the favored child of fate, displayed such prowess without using the secret source, relying solely on Non-Specialist skills!
However, this should also be because the secret source increased his attributes by 50%, making Lin Feng’s panel attributes very high.
But…..a hint of mockery flashed in Qin Xian’s eyes. Neither Lin Feng nor Chen Beiguo could guess what he intended to do! Tamper with Lin Feng’s college entrance exam trial?
No! What he wanted to do…..was to destroy the Temple of Divine Revelation in East Sea City!
