"Ding... lord crystal merging. 24 hours remaining until merge completion..."
As the prompt faded, Qin Feng suddenly felt a subtle warm current gradually within his body, slowly circulating throughout him.
This was a sign that the lord crystal was merging with Qin Feng's body.
Once the merge was complete. Qin Feng would possess "Lords Power" and become a true Lord.
Moreover, Qin Feng would also gain the qualification to travel to the Boundless World and establish his own territory!
Thinking of this, Qin Feng's heart surged with emotion, and his face showed a look of anticipation and longing.
However. just as Qin Feng was engrossed in his thoughts, a sudden clamor interrupted him, pulling him back to reality.
"I succeeded... I succeeded! I've become a Lord!"
"Hahaha! This is great! I got a silver grade lord crystal! Ahahaha..."
"Good sister! We've finally become Lords! We... you..."
"Dude? You didn't become a Lord?!"
No matter how much time passed in the Lord Trial, in reality, it was only an instant.
In an instant, all the students on the sports field woke up, and many couldn't help but shout loudly, cheer excitedly, and were overwhelmed with emotion.
It was understandable... eighteen years of effort, all for this day.
Now that their dreams had come true, the students were naturally excited and cheering.
However, when the students noticed the situation on the sports field, their excitement immediately diminished significantly.
Not every student passed the Lord Trial.
Even though everyone tried their best, there were always unexpected circumstances.
In fact, out of 5736 students from Shuangyu City First Higher Academy who participated in the Lord Trial, only 2,354 students ultimately passed the assessment and became Lords.
To be honest this ratio was not very high. "Sigh..."
"Brother, humanity relies on you to protect it!"
"Good sister, our dreams are entrusted to you..."
With deep reluctance and unwillingness, the students who did not become Lords quietly left the field.
Some, as they left, didn't forget to encourage their good friends.
This scene of parting immediately brought tears to many students' eyes, making the atmosphere on the sports field sorrowful.
But at this moment, the old principal slowly walked onto the podium.
"Students, I hope you will remember today, remember this moment..."
"You must understand that becoming a Lord is not your end, but your beginning."
"In the future, you will encounter many hardships, experience various difficulties, and even face death directly."
"When such situations arise, I hope you will uphold your beliefs, bravely face everything, until you overcome all obstacles and make yourselves even stronger!"
Looking at the slightly young students below, the old principal spoke with a serious expression and impassioned words.
His speech gradually made the students below put away their sadness, at least they no longer showed it.
In fact, every year, many experts, and even many parents, called on the government to build specialized single cubicles for the Lord Trial, so that students could participate in the Lord Trial there.
This way, even if a student failed the trial, it would not affect the other students who passed the Lord Trial.
This approach could greatly reduce the psychological burden on students.
However, such calls have never been adopted.
Because the high ranking officials of the government, especially those in the military, and even more citizens, understood one truth.
That is "Today's kindness equals tomorrow's cruelty."
The wars between races were incredibly brutal; it was no exaggerating to say they were endless.
What's more, it was a struggle for supremacy among ten thousand races!
In such circumstances, sacrifices were inevitable, and one would even witness friends and family dying before their eyes.
Compared to that the parting at school was nothing but a psychological burden!
If one couldn't even bear that, they shouldn't become a Lord!
"Alright, homeroom teachers, please begin compiling the status of your respective students..."
Seeing that most of the students below had calmed down, the old principal gestured to the homeroom teachers nearby.
The homeroom teachers understood and immediately went to the students, one hand holding a detector, the other a record sheet.
Compiling student status; naturally, they were compiling what quality of a lord crystal could not determine a person's ultimate achievement.
A high quality lord crystal would certainly allow a person to develop faster and have greater potential.
For such students, the school would give awards, and the government would also provide a certain degree of cultivation.
Therefore, this was not only something the school cared about, but also something every student who became one of the Newly Promoted Lords cared about!
"Teacher, mine is black iron level."
Seeing the homeroom teacher approaching, a student immediately displayed his lord crystal.
The homeroom teacher saw it and immediately beamed, praising him a few times.
Every year, almost 80% of the Newly Promoted Lords had white plank level lord crystals.
So, for many, obtaining a black iron level lord crystal was already quite good.
Because of this, the student who obtained the black iron level lord crystal quickly became the subject of discussion among students.
However, not long after, another student unexpectedly pulled out a silver grade lord crystal.
"Silver grade! It's a silver grade!"
"Mo Qing actually got a silver grade lord crystal!"
Seeing the faint silver light emanating from the silver grade lord crystal.
The students on the sports field immediately let out a cry of surprise.
Some students who had a good relationship with Mo Qing even gathered around him, making Mo Qing quite embarrassed.
And in the stands, the old principal and other school leaders were all smiling broadly.
The better the students' results, the more prestige the school leaders had!
However, just as everyone was looking at Mo Qing, a golden light suddenly appeared on the sports field.
"A gold grade lord crystal?!"
"Who? Who got a gold grade lord crystal?"
Seeing the golden light, students, teachers, and leaders all became excited, and couldn't help but look over, and Qin Feng was no exception.
However, what Qin Feng didn't expect was that the person who obtained the gold grade lord crystal was that girl who had always harbored resentment towards Qin Feng.
"Zhao Xiaolan! You... you got a gold grade lord crystal? That's that's wonderful!"
"Xiaolan, congratulations!"
"Wow! As expected of our school's campus belle! So impressive!"
Zhao Xiaolan, who was already good looking and hailed as the campus belle, mow became the center of attention, surrounded by countless students in three layers, then three more.
This feeling intoxicated Zhao Xiaolan.
Amidst her intoxication, she actually squinted her eyes and coldly looked at Qin Feng, who was not far away.
"Sick!"
Feeling Zhao Xiaolan's gaze, Qin Feng, who was originally just watching the show, couldn't help but roll his eyes internally and cursed fiercely.
So... where exactly had Qin Feng offended this Zhao Xiaolan?
