Chapter 90: The Shock Continues to Mount, Supre Genius!
The massive elental talent testing device was moved into the courtyard.
Qin Feng smiled.
Lin Jianhao is indeed a formidable opponent.
He had taken into account even the tiniest details that most people would overlook.
Unfortunately for him, luck was on Qin Feng’s side—no matter how ticulous Lin Jianhao’s calculations were, they would be useless.
As the saying goes: When the ti cos, even heaven and earth lend their strength; when luck fades, even heroes are powerless.
This ti, Lin Jianhao’s sches were bound to fail once again.
“Little friend Qin Feng, this ti, I have co to Yunyang City for two things. The first is to thoroughly investigate the Lin family. The second is to assess your potential,” Wei Xun said with a kind smile.
“Eh? Why is that?” Qin Feng feigned ignorance.
Wei Xun chuckled and explained, “It’s like this. Our Southern Alliance places great emphasis on talent. Anyone who reaches a certain level receives corresponding rewards and unwavering support from the alliance.”
“Earlier today, we received a report from City Lord Shangguan, stating that a super genius had appeared in Yunyang City—that genius being you, little friend. Since I was already coming here, I decided to take care of both matters at once.”
“I see!” Qin Feng pretended to have a sudden realization.
At that mont, he noticed that Shangguan Yunyang and Wei Qing were both looking at him with beaming smiles, their eyes filled with encouragent and eager anticipation.
Whether or not Qin Feng was truly a ‘super genius’ hinged on this talent test.
His combat talent had already been witnessed by everyone.
But right at this mont, Lin Jianhao gritted his teeth and interjected, “My lord, Qin Feng is only 17 years old and has already reached the peak of One-Star cultivation. If his talent doesn’t at least reach the lower tier of the ‘genius’ classification, then sothing is highly suspicious!”
“Try speaking out of turn one more ti!” Wei Xun roared, his expression darkening.
Lin Jianhao quickly bowed his head and stepped back.
However, a glint of cunning flashed through his eyes.
He had deliberately spoken in advance—so that if Qin Feng failed, he would have ammunition to attack him later.
Wei Xun shot Lin Jianhao a cold glance before turning back to Qin Feng with a smile.
“Little friend, this assessnt will specifically test your fire-elent talent. Since Lin Jianhao has expressed doubts about your abilities, we can settle both matters at once. I hope you understand!”
“Of course, my lord!”
“Good! Let’s begin!”
At Wei Xun’s command, several staff mbers got to work.
One worker pulled out a few test tubes and began asuring the fire-elent concentration in the air.
A few minutes later, the results were in.
“Report, Team Leader! The SH value of fire elents in the air is 1.07!”
“Adjust the calibration instrunt, lower the niobium-actinium probe sensitivity by 0.07!”
“Understood, Team Leader… Equipnt fully calibrated… Running normally! Testing can proceed!”
The staff quickly made the necessary adjustnts, and the test was ready.
“My lord, please place your hand on the sensor and focus on sensing the fire-elent energy,” a female staff mber instructed Qin Feng respectfully, smiling as she spoke.
This was clearly the most advanced testing device available.
Qin Feng pressed his hand onto the sensor and began channeling his fire-elent energy.
An invisible surge of fire energy gathered, causing the instrunt’s probe to vibrate.
Everyone held their breath, eyes wide open, waiting for the results.
Among the crowd, the most anxious were Lin Jianhao, Chu Chu, Shangguan Yunyang, and Wei Qing.
A mont later, a single red bar lit up on the display.
Then a second one.
Then a third, a fourth, a fifth…
In the blink of an eye, nine bars were illuminated.
The crowd grew tense, their eyes locked onto the screen.
This was the most crucial mont of the test.
Talent levels were categorized into lower, middle, and upper tiers—except for the “peerless” level, which had no subdivisions.
A display of nine illuminated bars indicated an upper-tier excellent talent.
If the tenth bar lit up, it would an Qin Feng’s talent reached the lower-tier genius level.
That would imdiately disprove Lin Jianhao’s accusations.
But if Qin Feng failed, doubts about him would only multiply.
Right now, Lin Jianhao was more nervous than anyone.
His eyes were fixed on the screen, internally screaming for the lights to stop appearing. Cold sweat beaded on his forehead.
But at that very mont—the tenth bar lit up.
A wave of cheers erupted from the crowd.
“Ten bars! It’s ten bars! Yay!”
Chu Chu was the first to cheer excitedly.
Shangguan Yunyang and Wei Qing exchanged relieved smiles.
Qin Feng had not let them down.
His talent was, indeed, at the genius level!
And with his god-tier combat talent as well—
By all accounts, Qin Feng was an absolute super genius!
For years, Yunyang City had been waiting for such a talent. Now, its hopes for advancent were finally within reach.
Shangguan Yunyang and Wei Qing’s eyes glead with excitent.
Even the staff mbers were beaming with joy.
A lower-tier genius—an exceptionally rare talent across the entire alliance.
And now, they had one more among them.
Lin Jianhao, however, was trembling violently, his expression utterly devastated.
He could not accept this reality.
Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!
“Arrest Lin Jianhao!” Wei Xun’s voice was devoid of emotion.
“My lord! I—”
“Councilor Lin, do not attempt to resist. If you do, we have the authority to execute you on the spot!”
Two alliance enforcers swiftly restrained Lin Jianhao, clamping shackles onto his wrists.
A third staff mber injected a needle into his neck.
It was an elental suppression serum—a drug that weakened his elental abilities.
Lin Jianhao dared not resist and was completely subdued.
Only then did Wei Xun turn back to Shangguan Yunyang with a pleased expression.
“City Lord Shangguan, congratulations! Your Yunyang City has produced an outstanding genius!”
“Haha! Not at all, not at all! Just sheer luck!”
Though Shangguan Yunyang spoke modestly, his face was practically glowing with joy.
But just as everyone thought the test was over—
The eleventh bar lit up.
A blinding glow radiated from the screen.
My heavens!
Not just ten bars?!
A wave of gasps swept through the crowd.
Everyone’s eyes widened in shock.
Eleven bars—this signified a middle-tier genius!
Shangguan Yunyang was overjoyed.
This young man’s talent is actually higher than my own!
After all, he himself was only a lower-tier genius.
“Outstanding! Simply outstanding!” Wei Xun nodded repeatedly in admiration.
As soone who had assessed countless individuals across various base cities, he had seen a handful of lower-tier geniuses before.
But a middle-tier genius?
This was the first ti. Even he felt a surge of excitent.
“City Lord Shangguan, Yunyang City has truly struck gold this ti. When the higher-ups hear about this, you’ll certainly be comnded!”
“Haha! I never expected Brother Qin Feng’s talent to be this exceptional…!”
Shangguan Yunyang was so thrilled his usually composed face turned red.
But just as everyone thought the excitent was over—the twelfth bar lit up.
Stunned silence filled the air.
My heavens!
Could it be… upper-tier genius?!
The entire crowd erupted in celebration.
Shangguan Yunyang swallowed hard.
Even the normally reserved Wei Xun finally lost his composure.
A super-genius has erged in the Southern Alliance!
And this ti, we can finally silence the Northern Alliance’s taunts.
Lin Jianhao was utterly speechless, his heart filled with regret.
As Qin Feng withdrew his hand from the sensor and opened his eyes—
He was t with countless pairs of fiery, ecstatic gazes.
