Chapter 295: The Born Villain Protagonist
Zhou Dong truly had no time to mind what the other examinees were doing; there was that divine son's companion who came with an imposing demeanor, wanting to hold someone accountable for something.
But at that time, Zhou Dong didn't pay him any attention. Su Tu ascended a hundred steps, breaking the Federation's original understanding of the Heavenly Ladder; above ninety-nine steps, there exists one more step, which is no small matter.
This indicates that Su Tu's Heart and Spirit talent is even more terrifying than his Martial Arts Dao cultivation.
It symbolizes that this young man has the ability to further open a path in Heart and Spirit cultivation — a universally acknowledged weakness among the Human Race.
However, with Su Tu's existence, it is very likely that this status quo could be broken.
Nevertheless, he utilized the official terminal to directly report the matter, which was immediately categorized as an S-level document, meaning all S-level documents would be personally reviewed by council members and inspected by the Supreme.
"If he achieves success in the future, I will rise along with him!!"
Zhou Dong thought with some excitement.
Afterward, his gaze involuntarily swept across the system, finding that apart from the files he uploaded, there was another document with an evaluation level unexpectedly higher than his own.
This naturally piqued his curiosity.
He intended to take a look, but found he didn't have any permissions at all.
"SS-level document?"
SS-level documents pertain to matters that can affect the entire Star River's situation; such events are generally defined by civilization warfare or racial slaughter.
Since the Star River entered the era of great peace, SS-level documents have become quite rare.
Earlier, when the Federation sought vengeance under the name of the [Emperor], cleaning up the surrounding disloyal civilizations didn't count, plucking a few weeds casually wasn't much.
In the eyes of Star River civilization, only entities of the same level are qualified to speak; otherwise, they are merely ants.
"Did something big happen in the Star River??"
"Did any advanced civilizations start a war?? Upper-race slaughter?"
"Could it be a Supreme has fallen?"
Zhou Dong thought chaotically, and bumped into someone on his way back.
He raised his eyes and clicked his tongue — the person he bumped into was indeed the companion of the Seven Great Alliances' divine son, who belonged to the Snake-man Race.
Earlier, this person was trying to seek justice from him, seeming like a divine son lost a bet or some such.
If you can't play, just admit you can't play; look for someone to settle scores, what kind of skill is that...
Zhou Dong thought this way, but as the examiner of this general assessment, he represented the official image and couldn't act like his mind wandered.
He was about to speak some words of comfort.
Unexpectedly, the Snake-man Race opened his mouth faster: "Sorry, Examiner Zhou, I wasn't paying attention to the road, there's no impact, is there?"
The Snake-man's tone lacked the previous aggressiveness, and even carried a hint of obsequiousness.
The huge contrast from before made him somewhat confused.
Mindlessly he replied: "It's okay."
"It's okay, no problem, otherwise I would really be gravely guilty.."
The Snake-man Race spoke with a face full of guilt.
He then very respectfully made way for Zhou Dong.
Zhou Dong left, completely bewildered, even forgetting to ask what the Snake-man Race wanted earlier.
"So arrogant before and now so humble, it's a bit strange..."
"What on earth has suddenly happened, causing such a great change in the Snake-man Race's attitude...."
Zhou Dong tightened his brows into the shape of the river character, and with the Seven Great Alliances and Federation's relations now barely short of tearing their masks apart, such a sudden shift in attitude from their race surely marks an unimaginable change.
"Impossible...."
Suddenly, Zhou Dong was slightly stunned, standing still, as if he had thought of something unbelievable.
"Could it be..."
"A Supreme has really fallen?"
....
After the first round of assessment ended, there would be no other assessments conducted today.
The Heaven-Ascending Ladder, although merely a Heart and Spirit assessment, placed a profoundly heavy burden on the martial artist, affecting the examinees' performances going forward.
This general assessment was scheduled over five days.
The first day was the Heaven-Ascending Ladder, while the second and third rounds were conducted on the second day.
The following three days were entirely reserved for the final martial assessment.
The students flooded toward the high-rise buildings behind them, which would serve as their dormitories for these few days.
Dormitories would allocate rooms based on results of the first round, although the divine sons from foreign races had separate accommodations.
Su Tu, as the leader of the first round, was assigned to a dormitory with Mu Wuyang, Feng, and that slender young man.
Although called a dormitory, it was actually a four-bedroom, one-living-room apartment, equipped with full facilities, including a Gravity Room, Heart and Spirit Cultivation Room, and more.
Of course, this was not the treatment of every examinee, but only top ten ranked examinees received such treatment.
The group arrived at the dormitory, only staying temporarily while Su Tu casually chose a room.
Afterward, they gathered in the living room to chat.
Among them, Su Tu was only unfamiliar with that slender young man.
The young man's aura wasn't apparent, appearing no different than an ordinary martial artist.
Yet Su Tu didn't underestimate him; Candle Wisdom reminded Su Tu that this young man was no less compared to Mu Wuyang, and potentially even more dangerous.
On the initial list, this character wasn't present, Su Tu could ascertain.
Speaking of the Celestial Pride List, Su Tu only then recalled that during the last explosion, the 'external media' of the Celestial Pride List perished together, although the Celestial Pride List resided within the Heart and Spirit Other Shore, unaffected, without a worldly mediator, Su Tu couldn't proceed with challenges and the like.
Originally, he should have applied for a copy of the Celestial Pride List from the Federation, but after returning to the Ancestor Star, he rushed straight into the general assessment over the last few days, simply having no time.
