Min Jiangyun witnessed the entire incident.

“Whimper” (Save me!)

However, Li Sanqian, holding the takeout box and riding on the energy-powered aircraft, had already made a quick getaway. As for the little fox lying on the ground, she was fast asleep, blissfully unaware.

Meanwhile, Chen Ling and Sui Li’er were inside the Qianling Gorge, completely unaware of what had transpired.

“Are you hungry? The takeout has arrived.”

“Mmm~ I’m not hungry now. I’ll eat later.”

After waiting for a while, finally, everyone’s exams were over!

“Alright, now we will announce the list of those who have passed.”

“In the first batch, those who passed are…”

Yan Ran read out the names one by one, and Sui Li’er eagerly perked up her ears. Nervously holding Chen Ling’s hand, her body temperature was normal under the system’s regulation, but Chen Ling could clearly feel that she was so nervous that her hand was sweating.

At that moment, Yan Ran looked towards Sui Li’er and Chen Ling and said calmly, “Sui Sui and Chen Ling.”

Sui Li’er and Chen Ling were both momentarily stunned.

Sui Li’er: Sui Sui, is that me? It sounds like it! It’s the nickname I told her last time! It really is me!

Sui Li’er: “Oh yeah!”

She joyfully grabbed Chen Ling’s hand and jumped up.

Chen Ling’s thoughts: I didn’t do anything, how did I pass? Moreover, I didn’t even sign up to participate!

“Why! Mentor Yan Ran, I clearly passed too!”

A student looked at Yan Ran in disbelief.

“My flower wasn’t burned either!”

Yan Ran replied coldly, “Indeed, your flower wasn’t burned, it was boiled to mush. Are you making tea with it?”

The student had used water, but when controlling the spell, the water temperature was too high, and he didn’t change the water enough. As a result, the little red flower was soaked and ruined by the scalding hot water…

“Well, what about him? Why did he pass when he didn’t even put his flower in?”

“Hmm? You didn’t put it in?” Sui Li’er looked at Chen Ling’s hand in confusion. She had been focused on her own flower and hadn’t noticed his. But now, the flower in Chen Ling’s hand was gone.

“Where’s your flower?” Sui Li’er bit her lip lightly, assuming that Chen Ling would surely pass the assessment.

Chen Ling smiled gently and said, “Let me show you a magic trick.”

He then extended his other hand slowly towards Sui Li’er’s face.

“Huh?” Sui Li’er thought he was going to pinch her face in front of everyone, causing her face to immediately turn red.

“No…” She initially wanted to say she didn’t want it due to shyness, but then she thought: If Lord God likes it, then I’ll let him do it…

So she pursed her lips and quietly waited. However, as Chen Ling approached her face, he lifted his hand and gently tousled her hair. From her hair, he took out a small red flower and placed it in front of Sui Li’er, smiling as he said, “Look! It was in your hair all along.”

“Eh!?” Sui Li’er’s eyes lit up with surprise, and a smile involuntarily appeared on her face. “When did you put it there? I had no idea.”

“Guess. I’ll just put it back, it looks quite nice.”

“Mmm~” Sui Li’er obediently nodded, feeling Chen Ling’s fingers playing with her hair. Her small hand couldn’t help but grip his hand, shyly. Hehe~ He complimented me and said I look pretty!

〚 Ding~ Target: Sui Li’er feels happy. Points +10 million! 〛

The people around: ???

Is it time to eat again?

What are you two doing!?

Many people were captivated by Sui Li’er’s blushing face.

And of course, Chen Ling’s action of putting the flower in Sui Li’er’s hair was captured by Luo Yuxiu with her mobile device. After taking a glance, she couldn’t help but feel amazed: The appearance of these two is top-notch. Any photo of them would be on the level of a world-famous masterpiece!

While everyone was immersed in their affection, there was someone who wasn’t.

He angrily exclaimed, “Why! Can’t you see? He didn’t even participate in the test, so why did he pass? This is a shady operation you’re running!”

“Blatant cheating! Is this the assessment of the Twelve Academies? It’s unfair!”

Once these words were spoken, many people felt that what he said made sense. They all turned their gaze towards Chen Ling.

These people hadn’t witnessed his interference with Zen Douzhi before. At that time, there were many people present, and only those in the vicinity saw it, so they weren’t afraid of Chen Ling.

Chen Ling sneered and with Sui Li’er by his side, he quickly moved, and then there was a loud “bang!”

“Ah!”

The person screamed in terror, and everyone was shocked.

“Chen Ling!”

By the time Yan Ran reacted, it was already too late. The person had been kicked by Chen Ling and fell into the lava!

“Ah!”

Sui Li’er screamed in alarm, followed by the person who fell into the lava. He slowly sank, his desperate cries echoing in the volcanic crater, reaching the ears of the crowd.

“Quick! Pull him up!”

“Hurry, save him!”

Everyone panicked, and the four mentors quickly moved, utilizing their abilities. If they acted now, there might still be time to save him, at worst he would lose his lower body! If they waited any longer, it would truly be too late.

Then several golden lights flashed, pulling him out of the lava. Some people instinctively closed their eyes in fear. But there were also those who widened their eyes in disbelief, unable to utter a word.

Because the person who had just fallen down was completely unharmed, without a single injury! The four mentors looked at the person on the ground, who was rolling around in a frenzy, screaming and babbling, with astonishment.

He was kicking his legs and had absolutely no injuries. He was simply frightened, which was indeed quite terrifying.

“Enough, you’re fine.” Yan Ran helplessly scolded.

The person shouted a couple more times, then looked down at his legs, froze in place, and then looked at Chen Ling in disbelief. This time, he didn’t dare to say anything more.

The people around no longer doubted Chen Ling’s strength. In their hearts, he had become a great deity. He could ensure that a person would come out unharmed after falling in, and they couldn’t understand what method he had used.

It seemed like he hadn’t done anything at all, yet he accomplished what they could only achieve by risking their lives. What’s wrong with using that little red flower for romance? Isn’t that normal?

In Chen Ling’s heart, he didn’t really think too much about it. He just found this person annoying and wanted to scare him to make him shut up.

Afterward, the four mentors announced more names. Nearly a thousand people were eliminated in this round, leaving just over four thousand remaining.

This round was to test everyone’s ability to sustain their output of magical energy. Most people performed well, but there were a few who made some mistakes, otherwise they could have passed too. However, they wouldn’t have another chance this year.

“Alright, today’s assessment ends here. Tomorrow is the Water Element assessment. Everyone must gather at the Pisces·Deep Sea Palace before 9 o’clock tomorrow morning.” With that, Yan Ran gave a deep look at Chen Ling and Sui Li’er, then stepped onto the magical energy flying device and left.

The others gradually left as well. Zen Douzhi was the first one to run away, fearing that Chen Ling would call him to stay. But he didn’t know that running to the ends of the earth wouldn’t make a difference.

The others all left, leaving only Chen Ling and Sui Li’er behind.

Chen Ling smiled and said, “Wait, there are still two people who haven’t come out.”

He had already noticed the presence of two people hiding in the shadows. One was Qitian Ming, and the other was an unknown dark mage!
