Chapter 14

Outside the data research center.

“Congratulations, Brother Tao!”

“You’re always the No.1 in class. Brother Tao is awesome!”

“In the future, when you become an Evolver, do take care of us.”

Surrounded by students, Yu Haitao had a confident smile on his face. He was in a good mood.

81 points!

In an ordinary class, it was already a very high score, even comparable to the students at the bottom of the elite class.

He also had an evolution fruit, and his future was bright.

Soon, he would be able to join the base defense division and rise step by step.

Suddenly, Yu Haitao realized that something was wrong as the surrounding compliments stopped abruptly.

The students around him looked at their phones with strange expressions, their faces full of disbelief.

Puzzled, Yu Haitao took out his phone from his pocket and realized that Class 23’s group chat was flooded with messages.

In just a short while, the red dot that showed the number of messages in the group chat had already reached 999. All the messages were of the same three words: Worship Brother Ye!

[Comprehensive physical fitness score: 103!]

Wang Ye was currently ranked first among the 20 ordinary classes that had completed the assessments!

Yu Haitao felt as if his head had exploded with a bang. He was dumbfounded.

…

“Xiaoyu, did you see the group message?” Huang Ju was flustered, and her hands were trembling.

“Yes.”

Zhao Xiaoyu had seen it long ago. She had mixed feelings.

“Oh my god, 103 points! Is there a mistake in the score? But that’s impossible…” Huang Ju muttered to herself and shook her head.

“I don’t know,” Zhao Xiaoyu’s voice was filled with bitterness.

Even though her score was not bad, it was a far cry from Wang Ye’s.

“What should we do, Xiaoyu?” Huang Ju was at a loss.

Zhao Xiaoyu lowered her head and looked at her phone.

The screen was still on.

However, there was still no reply to her congratulatory message to Wang Ye.

Class 23 was in an uproar!

However, the person who caused all this had already returned to his dormitory to cultivate.

103 points.

Was it very high?

Maybe so for the ordinary classes.

But in the elite classes… Well, it was actually not bad.

“Overall ranking, 88th.”

Wang Ye found his ranking on the intranet.

He was the only student in the top 100 of the 27 ordinary classes.

Even in the three elite classes, he could be considered to be at the top.

“(1) Huang Zirui, 160.”

“(2) Yu Shuiqin, 156.”

“(3) Wang Jun, 155.”

…

The competition in the elite classes was really intense.

Wang Ye sighed.

There were 10 people who had scored more than 150 points.

Huang Zirui from Class 1 even exceeded 160 points and was far ahead.

However, the one who received the most attention was Yu Shuiqin, who was ranked second.

It had nothing to do with her looks. It was because she was the only girl in the top five.

Girls were born weaker than boys, so her 156 points were very valuable.

She might even be the most outstanding student in the West Camp’s 101st batch.

Of course, in terms of innate talent, Wang Ye believed that he was still the best.

Wang Ye was quite frank.

If he had transmigrated two months earlier, these people from the elite classes wouldn’t have appeared so great.

He could have even pushed the limits of an ordinary person’s body and tried to reach 200 points.

Then, he would break the camp record.

It was not too late now.

After he became an Evolver, surpassing them was only a matter of time.

“Speaking of which, Yu Shuiqin is indeed quite beautiful.”

Wang Ye couldn’t help but take a few more glances.

Everyone liked beautiful women.

The other party looked like a gentle southern woman, just like a lotus flower that rose from the water. She seemed so soft that water would drip out.

To be able to look so pretty in the school register, she definitely was even prettier in real life.

But it had nothing to do with Wang Ye.

He only had one thought now, and that was to become an Evolver!

Wang Ye closed his laptop and continued to cultivate.

Every day, his physical fitness score was rising rapidly.

103 was already in the past.

December 20th was the last day of the graduation exam.

The students were eager and their auras were majestic.

The Evolution Camp placed a lot of importance on actual combat, and every month, there would be missions to train in the wild.

The country spent a lot of resources to nurture Evolvers so that they could fight against the endless stream of monsters and protect the people of the country.

The special department of the three major Evolver organizations, namely the rescue team of the Evolution Camp, the Future Center of the gene park, and the guardian department of the base defense division, all required at least an A-grade assessment for combat ability before one would be qualified to enter.

“Hello, Brother Ye!”

“Good morning, Brother Ye!”

Wang Ye could feel a stark difference in the other’s attitudes.

On the way to the ground floor’s actual combat training hall, the students looked at him with a completely different gaze and treated him with a different attitude than before. It was as if they were looking at a famous person in the school.

He became famous all of a sudden.

The boys were envious and respectful, while the girls were in love and shy.

Wang Ye saw a beautiful figure not far from the entrance to the ground floor.

Although she was wearing a student’s combat uniform, she had exquisite makeup on. Her soft hair cascaded down her shoulders like a veil. It was obvious that she had just washed it.

“What a coincidence,” Wang Ye greeted Zhao Xiaoyu with a smile.

“Yes,” Zhao Xiaoyu gently nodded her head, her pink cheeks revealing an unnatural smile.

In her memory, they had not met since the breakup.

“Waiting for your best friend?” Wang Ye laughed.

“Ah, I…” Zhao Xiaoyu hesitated.

Waving his hand, Wang Ye walked past her.

He naturally knew what she wanted to do.

After working for so many years, he had seen all kinds of women.

Zhao Xiaoyu was the kind of girl who was very proud. Such girls were usually fresh graduates who had just entered the workplace. She yearned for the future and longed for beautiful love.

They were commonly known for wanting everything and being very realistic.

To be honest, she was qualified to be like that.

However, he was not interested.

Looking at Wang Ye’s back view, Zhao Xiaoyu pursed her lips tightly as she felt an inexplicable pain in her heart.

She had finally mustered up the courage to take this step, but in the end, she was rebuffed.

He wasn’t like this before!

…

The actual combat training center was brilliant and grand, warm in winter and cool in summer.

This place had the most advanced training equipment and data research. It was the daily training ground for the Evolvers in the camp.

The center was divided into four large areas for four classes to take the assessment at the same time.

Each area was under the charge of two intermediate instructors. Ten beginner instructors and a number of staff members were assigned to be responsible for the assessment and recording of data.

Class 23’s assessment time was 3 pm.

Wang Ye’s arrival caused exclaims of surprise.

Celebrity effect.

In the original classes, he was now the most popular, even surpassing Huang Zirui.

The instructors were calm and collected, only taking a glance out of the corner of their eyes. They had seen many outstanding students, so they naturally wouldn’t make a fuss.

They didn’t even know who King Ye was.

Only an instructor with an empty left sleeve had bright eyes. He whispered a few words to the tall instructor beside him, and the latter nodded in realization.

“Brother Ye!” Lu Yong waved his arms excitedly. His 1.9-meter lanky figure was particularly eye-catching in the crowd.

Wang Ye nodded and walked over. His gaze fell on the opposite side and Yu Haitao subconsciously avoided his gaze. The other party’s face was expressionless, and no one could tell what he was thinking from his eyes.

However, Wang Ye knew very well that the other party wished he would die.

Coincidentally, he felt the same toward the other party.

Soon, it was three o’clock.

The combat assessment officially began.

According to their IDs, the students whose names were called entered the arena one by one.

The assessment was based on a grading system. It was divided into six grades: S (Very Excellent), A (Excellent), B (Good), C (Ordinary), D (Poor), and F (Failed).

Take one of the three major departments, the base defense division, as an example. With an F grade, one could only serve in a secretarial position. With a D grade, one could enter the base defense department. With a C grade, one could serve in the internal patrol department, With a B grade, one could join the external patrol department. Only with an A grade and above would one be qualified to enter the ace division, the guardian department.

Most of the students in the ordinary classes would get either a C or D grade. There were very few B’s and even fewer A’s.

The S grade?

It was rare even in the elite class.

For example, Yu Shuiqin, whose overall physical fitness was as high as 156, only got an A-grade evaluation.

There were even three students in the top ten who only obtained B and C grades in the actual combat assessment. This was also because they had strong bodies and had obtained good scores in the actual combat segment.

If one only looked at the first two categories, training time and weapon mastery, the score would be even lower.

“ID: W1012315. Yu Haitao. Training time B, weapon mastery A, actual combat training B. Overall assessment score: B.”

When the staff announced the results, Yu Haitao, who was on stage, held his sword with a shocked expression.

His brother had revealed to him in advance the grading standard of the combat assessment, so he ensured that his training time was just enough to get a B. If he wanted to get an A, he would need to spend a lot of time cultivating, and the gains would not make up for the losses.

For weapon mastery, his Rainbow Sword Technique had reached the proficient level, and according to the grading standard, he could get an A.

However, he did not expect that he would perform so badly in the actual combat with the instructor.

“Your thoughts are messy, and you have no order. You only attack when fighting, and have no care for the overall situation. You don’t have the carefree agility of the Rainbow Sword Technique at all,” The sword instructor mercilessly commented, “You may leave.”

“Yes, sir!” Yu Haitao’s hand, which was tightly gripping his sword, trembled violently as he gritted his teeth.

If it wasn’t for Wang Ye, he wouldn’t have performed so badly today!

After the scores were released yesterday, he fell from the clouds. His mentality collapsed.

“B…”

Yu Haitao walked off the stage in a daze.

He knew very well what this meant.

The gates to the guardian department were closed to him. He could only start as an inspector of the external patrol department after entering the base defense division.

Yu Haitao’s eyes were lifeless. His heart was filled with mixed feelings, and his mind was empty.

The failure of the combat assessment was a huge blow to him, even more than yesterday.

Yesterday, he was only embarrassed by Wang Ye. But today, he had lost his future.

“Next. ID W1012323. Wang Ye.”

Hearing this name that he hated so much, Yu Haitao suddenly snapped back to reality.
