Chapter 498: Chapter 498: Lu Xiao’s Downfall

Two minutes later, Feng Tianxing returned to Lu Xiao’s side, pushing a fully loaded food cart.

Both Lu Xiao and Yan Xiaoyue had faces full of question marks.

"Ah, the seniors and sisters at the academy are just too enthusiastic. Brother Lu, help yourself to whatever you like," Feng Tianxing said, his words muffled by the meat bun stuffed in his mouth.

Lu Xiao looked at Feng Tianxing, then at the First Academy students with their burning gazes.

Great, Feng Tianxing had likely spilled his secrets.

This tiger skin he was pulling was at least thirty percent of his effort.

Since breakfast was bought with his own dignity, Lu Xiao naturally wasn’t going to be polite.

He wolfed down four meat buns, two fried dough sticks, and two sets of pancake rolls in a show of gluttony.

After eating, Lu Xiao couldn’t help but marvel at the culinary level here in the Divine Land, which was quite superb.

Even this simple breakfast was comparable to that of a five-star hotel outside.

Lu Xiao figured that this probably had something to do with the raw materials too, since all were organic and free of pollutants.

Around nine in the morning, people started to flow into the examination site.

As time went on, the number of people increased.

By nine thirty, there were almost five to six hundred people present.

All of them were there to test into the First Academy. As for how many the academy would take, Lu Xiao had asked earlier: twenty regular spots, plus two extra spots.

A total of twenty-two.

The elimination rate was about ninety-five percent.

"Look at you, you’re probably out of luck," Lu Xiao said to Feng Tianxing with a glance.

Lu Xiao had observed the strength of the people around him and saw that there were at least a hundred above the Transcendent Fifth Layer.

It would be difficult for Feng Tianxing to stand out.

As for Xiao Yue, she had a very good chance.

So far, Lu Xiao had only seen five or six people above the Transcendent Seventh Layer.

"Everyone, please quiet down, the 1264th assessment for the Royal City First Academy is about to begin."

"First, we need to test everyone’s age. Those above thirty, please exit voluntarily."

Shouts arose from the crowd.

This had always been the rule at the First Academy; they would not accept students over the age of thirty.

Of the nearly six hundred people present, not one left.

"Please line up in order for the test."

Test speed was very fast; one only needed to place their palm on a metal sphere.

Lu Xiao’s tested age was 24, close to his real age.

However, until the test ended, Lu Xiao still couldn’t understand the principle behind it. The metal sphere was also quite peculiar, its material somewhat like Super Gold, but the feel was not quite the same.

Of course, Lu Xiao didn’t pay it too much mind.

After all, the Divine Continent was such a vast place; it was normal to have some strange, cutting-edge technology.

Testing the age of five to six hundred people took only half an hour, during which two people over thirty were directly escorted away.

"Next is the second test, the Inner Qi Refining Level test."

In such a large crowd, everyone was calm, except for Lu Xiao.

Lu Xiao’s mind was a mess. Inner Qi Refining Level? What the hell is that? Why have I never heard of it before!

Indeed, going the unofficial route seemed unreliable.

"Brother Lu, it’s time to show off!" Feng Tianxing said with excited anticipation as he looked at Lu Xiao.

In Feng Tianxing’s view, Lu Xiao’s Inner Qi Refinement level would at least reach the Hundred Refinement Level.

Above the Transcendence Realm, Inner Qi Hundred Refinements should be a piece of cake.

Lu Xiao smiled awkwardly. He didn’t even know what Inner Qi Refinement was, so what was there to show off?

Damn, this couldn’t possibly be headed for a crash and burn, right?
