One must admit, the figure appearing at the doorway was quite remarkable.
The first thing that caught everyone's eye was his ruggedly handso face with defined features.
Next was his tall, strong yet sleek physique that exuded not a hint of oiliness. The swift wind light armor he wore did not appear bulky on him; rather, it added a sharp, inexplicable aura to his presence.
It was a kind of masculine charm, far removed from anything effeminate.
At least upon his appearance, many girls in the crowd couldn’t help but feel their hearts flutter.
“Qin Fan…”
“He’s here!”
At that mont, every freshman in the venue directed their full attention to this figure.
There was hostility, contempt, and doubt.
Of course...
There was also apprehension, solemnity, and a sense of facing a formidable opponent!
Regardless of the scornful posts on the official forum, there were still so rational people.
No matter what, this youth who even the guys found extraordinarily handso was the top scorer in the vocational entrance exam of Nanzhou Province.
This ant he must have so real skills.
Luo Hao, Bai Wushuang, Xu Niannian, and Fang Tairan, these four exceptionally outstanding prodigies, also directed their gaze at Qin Fan.
However, after a brief glance, they turned away, not giving him another second of their attention.
It was a blatant attitude of disregard.
Obviously, these four prodigies still didn’t see Qin Fan as an opponent on their level.
Su Rou looked at this figure with a complex expression.
Feng Yuanyuan, Luo Tao, Chen Wei, and others gazed at him with strong disdain.
And just then...
Buzz!!
The podium in Arena No. 1 began to ripple with a mysterious spatial fluctuation.
The next second...
Under the shocked gaze of everyone present, dozens of figures appeared out of thin air on the podium.
This, of course, was the result of the spatial magic cast by Liu Boming, the God of Space Magic, who had teleported the other deans and teachers there.
Besides the four deans, there were several vice deans and powerful specialized teaching instructors.
These bigwigs ford the judging panel for this year’s freshman exam.
“Silence!”
At a teacher's stern shout, the freshn in the middle of the arena quickly stopped their noise and discussions, looking solemnly at the deans and teachers on the podium.
In their perception, these figures on the podium exuded an awe-inspiring, terrifying aura.
Moreover, they hadn’t set their nas, levels, or professions as private on their information panels.
Therefore, these freshn could easily use the Identification skill to see the levels and professions of these bigwigs.
The four deans were all level 90 or above, fourth-turn supre experts!
The four vice deans were all level 85 or above, third-turn experts!
Even the dozens of teaching instructors had a minimum level of 75!
More shockingly...
Not all of these instructors were human.
For instance, a teacher responsible for the warrior profession in the Combat Academy was a huge, tusked, blue-skinned orc!
The teacher for the archer profession was a silver-moon elf with delicate features, pointed ears, and a head of silky silver hair!
A teacher responsible for the blacksmith profession in the Enhancent Academy was a dwarf, a race known globally for their claim as the royal family of blacksmiths!
In addition, there were half-orc races.
A teacher specializing in the assassin profession was a catwoman from the catfolk race.
A teacher for the priest profession was a lizardwoman from the lizardfolk race.
This undoubtedly left many freshn below in astonishnt.
Even Qin Fan was curiously looking at these teachers from other racial empires.
In his previous life, he had only seen these alien races in ani and movies.
Now...
They were standing right in front of him, alive.
As previously ntioned, with the fusion of gas and reality, these alien racial empires had also descended upon the human world.
They had their own countries and cultures.
As the Rift Wars spread and affected the entire world, humans and these alien racial empires began to set aside their differences and attempted to cooperate.
Apart from these teaching instructors, there were also batches of exchange students from these alien racial empires studying in Longguo Country.
The alien instructors on the podium were already accustod to the curious looks from the students.
After all, they ca here once every year, and over ti, they got used to it.
“I believe you are all familiar with Dean Liu, but you might not know and the other deans and teachers yet…”
“Let introduce myself, I’m Liu Jinhua, Dean of the Combat Academy.”
“I will be presiding over this freshman exam.”
On the podium, a middle-aged man about forty stood up and spoke clearly.
Then, the other deans and teachers introduced themselves briefly.
This freshman exam involved many deans and teachers, not just for show.
Their goal was to select talents and recruit freshn into their academies.
These freshn hadn't chosen their academies yet.
Once the freshman exam was over and everyone had a clear understanding of the freshn’s true capabilities, the house sorting ceremony would begin.
The teachers naturally wanted to recruit outstanding talents into their academies.
Of course...
The top 100 in the freshman exam were bound to be hotly contested by the academies.
“All right, I know you don’t like long-winded speeches!”
“We are also aware of your dissatisfaction with the initial rankings!”
"Now, let's give everyone the opportunity to prove their strength!"
"As for the importance of the freshman exam, I believe you've already learned about it on the official website! No need to elaborate here!"
"I hereby announce that the first round of the freshman exam will officially begin in three minutes!"
"Freshn, please proceed to the designated dungeon portal according to your initial ranking number!"
"If you are in a team, simply choose to enter the sa portal!"
"In three minutes, the instance will begin!!"
As soon as Dean Liu Jinhua's clear voice faded away...
Rustle!!
In the vast arena, all the freshn wore serious expressions as they made their final equipnt and item checks.
This was the freshman exam!
It determined the resources and treatnt they would receive going forward!
"Hmm..."
"Calm, composed, and confident. These prodigies are indeed different from other students."
So instructors couldn't help but praise.
The instructor’s gaze naturally fell upon Qin Fan, Luo Hao, Bai Wushuang, and other prodigies.
While other students were hastily doing temporary equipnt checks, these prodigies remained calm.
These small details showed the gap between prodigies and ordinary students.
"I am quite curious about this kid Qin Fan."
"After all, he is a talent that our academy has spent a lot to recruit!"
"I hope he doesn't disappoint us."
Another instructor sighed softly.
Only a few deans and vice deans had watched Qin Fan's exam video; most of these instructors were still unaware of his abilities.
But the instructors had a broader perspective than these young freshn.
They knew their academy wouldn't spend so much to recruit a failure.
However, curiosity about this student, who had been at the center of attention recently, was inevitable.
"Don't worry, Teacher Anna. Just wait and see; you might be surprised by that kid."
Vice Dean He Yalan smiled faintly.
The elf instructor nad Anna nodded with a smile, "I look forward to it."
...
The three-minute preparation ti quickly ca to an end.
Buzz!!
As soon as the preparation ti ended, nearly a thousand diamond portals leading to the dungeons in the arena shone brilliantly.
Mysterious spatial fluctuations spread out!
There was no need for reminders from the staff.
All the freshn had already stood before the diamond portals corresponding to their ranking numbers, touching them.
At this mont...
The detailed information about the diamond-level dungeon appeared on all the freshn's information panels.
[Dungeon: Imperial Underground Laboratory]
[Level Requirent: 20-35]
[Difficulty: Hell]
[Player Limit: 1-5]
[Dungeon Background: In the dark, damp underground laboratory, eerie moans and growls occasionally echo. The air is filled with the stench of decay and the sll of engine oil. So say it holds the empire's conspiracy, while others claim it hides endless bio-chanical monsters...]
...
Buzz!!
The once bustling arena with nearly a thousand people suddenly beca half empty!
All the freshn had thoroughly researched the freshman exam content on the official school website.
They had also gathered information about the "Imperial Underground Laboratory" diamond-level dungeon.
This was a high-difficulty dungeon that even provincial top scorers couldn't solo!
So, these freshn had already ford their teams in advance.
What shocked the remaining freshn was...
Both Qin Fan and Bai Wushuang chose to enter the diamond portal alone!!
"This..."
Many were dumbfounded.
"This Qin Fan... is courting death!"
"Bai Wushuang has a Four-Winged Thunder Dragon as a trump card, but what does Qin Fan have?"
"Did he really contract a dragon?"
"That's wishful thinking! If taming dragons were that easy, past dragon tars wouldn't have died in obscurity..."
"..."
"Hmph! Overestimating himself!"
"Sister Su Rou, let's go!"
Luo Tao sneered at the diamond portal labeled 'No. 1', then pulled Su Rou's hand and headed towards their portal.
Their team setup remained the sa.
Luo Hao, Su Rou, Luo Tao, Feng Yuanyuan, and Chen Wei.
