Although Li Li was displeased with Tang Miao's teasing, there was nothing she could really do to him. After all, the principal had specifically instructed that Tang Miao was sent by the Judgment Union!
She understood what the concept of the Judgment Union meant.
After Tang Miao arrived in the classroom and introduced himself, he glanced at the girls in the class... Hmm, they were all of average to below-average looks. Only the class teacher, "Nice," was somewhat attractive.
Immediately, he decided to be a handsome man and live a peaceful life... And because he got in through the back door, there were no arrogant or prominent family scions in this class. They were all ordinary students with mediocre talents.
This school was quite good. Even in the worst class, the teacher was a Mid-tier Mage. Although this teacher might not have even mastered Mid-tier magic yet... The reason he was assigned to the worst class was that Tang Yue had specifically instructed it. The goal was for Tang Miao to work hard and strive for himself!
...Time flew by, spring turned to autumn, and a year passed in the blink of an eye.
In this year, Tang Miao successfully advanced his Lightning Element Primary Magic to the second level. His Ice Element Magic also reached the second level.
Although he wanted to focus on one magic and cultivate it to the third level, even with his fast cultivation speed, he couldn't achieve the leap from second to third level within a year.
However, compared to the other students in the academy, he was already quite good. After all, many of them couldn't even cast magic yet...
Li Li looked at Tang Miao, who was spacing out, and roared, "Tang Miao, why are you still in the classroom? Don't you know today is the day of the test!?"
In Li Li's class, only Tang Miao, that pervert, was outstanding. But everyone else in the class had already gathered on the playground, yet Tang Miao was nowhere to be seen!
So she went to look for him. When she saw him waiting there for class, she understood. This guy had messed up the time again...
To be honest, Tang Miao was quite puzzled. He came to the classroom only to find it empty. He even wondered if it was the weekend.
Tang Miao scratched his head awkwardly and chuckled, "Ahem... Teacher Li Li, I'm so sorry, I forgot..."
Li Li had an "I knew it" expression.
However, even if she had complaints, she couldn't be a resentful woman now, as today was a very important day. For the students, it was even more crucial, as it would determine who could enter the elite class!
"Let's go... We're going to take the test!"
With that, Li Li turned and left, and Tang Miao immediately followed her out. This time, he didn't stop to admire anything, as the test was related to the Stardust Magic Tool, which was a cultivation cheat device. He naturally couldn't ignore it.
After all, this was a piece of hardware, and for him in the early stages, it was extremely important.
Well... no matter when, it seemed to be damn important!
Tang Miao was not only the last one from his class to arrive at the training ground, but he also seemed to be the last one in the entire school. Fortunately, his class was considered the worst in terms of performance, so it didn't have much impact.
Normally, everyone had their practical classes here, but today the venue was clearly set up differently. Besides the semi-circular examiner's desk, there was also a floating Star-sensing Stone.
The Star-sensing Stone looked a bit like a black, watermelon-sized pebble, and it was currently being supported by a stone pillar at the front of the training ground. This Star-sensing Stone was the most important instrument for students' assessments.
The annual assessment was simple, just like the awakening ceremony. Students only needed to place their palms on this large Star-sensing Stone, and the examiners could immediately judge their cultivation progress over the past year based on the brightness of the Star-sensing Stone.
Like the college entrance examination, students' fates could very well be determined by a single judgment. In this world, there was also a similar hard indicator: either continue studying and gain better opportunities, or pack up and leave to find another path...
The principal and several directors had finished their speeches, and the students began to go up and take the test one by one.
"Zhang San!"
..."Grade C!"
"Li Si!"
..."Grade B!"
"Wang Wu!"
..."Grade A!"
"..."
Looking at the grades of the few people in the front, Tang Miao felt they were really pathetic!
These little brothers were simply there for him to abuse however he wanted!
"Dongfang Hui!"
Following the teacher's call, a graceful figure, moving with light steps, walked out.
The girl had a slender body, about 1.75 meters or taller. Although she was wearing a school uniform, her S-tier figure still stood out, exuding a hint of cold arrogance. Her skin was like snow, and her long dark hair was casually draped over her shoulders. Her face was slightly thin but exceptionally delicate.
After standing at the front, she gazed slightly, and in her long, somewhat languid eyes, there was a hint of charm, making her captivating and alluring.
This sudden appearance of a beauty caused a stir among the younger brothers below.
Tang Miao looked at the young lady at the front and turned to Li Li, "Teacher Li Li, is this girl from the Dongfang family?"
"That's right." Li Li nodded, then added discouragingly, "You'd better not daydream. Dongfang Hui has extremely high talent and is also the goddess of the new students in the academy!"
Li Li only knew that Tang Miao's magic was Lightning-elemental. As for his actual strength, she wasn't very clear. After all, Tang Miao had always been a low-key person? Or rather, he simply disdained showing off in class.
"Dongfang Hui, Grade S! Now, cast your spell!"
Then Dongfang Hui also cast a Fire Burst spell. The speed of connecting the Star-paths was very fast, and there was almost no pause before casting.
Her casting score also reached three "A's!"
Then a group of people tested, until the sun was high in the sky and the heat was scorching. Then it was Tang Miao's turn!
Tang Miao walked up and immediately placed his hand on the Star-sensing Stone.
The coolness of the Star-sensing Stone quickly warmed up under the conduction of Tang Miao's stardust power.
Then a purple light emerged, and streaks of lightning spread within the Star-sensing Stone, then completely released... The intense purple light astonished everyone present!
Even Dongfang Hui, who had just finished her test, felt somewhat incredible... And Li Li, the class teacher who had always been annoyed with Tang Miao, was now so excited she was almost jumping up and down! What did it matter if such an excellent student appeared in her class and was a bit of a rascal? Give her another dozen, and she'd let them flirt all they wanted!
After all, the reward an exceptionally talented student brought her was immense!
Looking at the surprised gazes of all the teachers and students, Tang Miao thought, "Oh, my irresistible charm!"
Of course, he didn't think others were shocked by his cultivation; he only thought they were admiring his handsome face.
Unfortunately, these teachers and students didn't know. If they knew what he was thinking, they would definitely tell him that one shouldn't be too narcissistic...
