Shen Yue volunteered, immediately drawing the attention of many.
Among the beginner warrior apprentices, Shen Yue, Ye Ziyun, and Xiao Ning'er were undoubtedly the ones with the highest potential to break through to the Bronze One Star realm, the most watched. Another person of great interest was Nie Li, who had a bet with Instructor Shen Xiu. However, the vast majority of people didn't believe Nie Li could reach Bronze One Star in such a short time.
If reaching Bronze One Star was really that easy, then so many people wouldn't be permanently stuck outside the gates of being a Warrior or a Demon Spirit Master!
The Strength Testing Stone was a massive rock, its entire surface glowing with a metallic sheen. When warriors punched it, the stone would depress slightly, and the depth of the depression indicated the warrior's power level.
"Boom!" Shen Yue threw a punch at the Strength Testing Stone, and a faint indent immediately appeared on its surface.
Several instructors overseeing the test walked over.
"Bronze One Star, test result: one hundred and twenty!"
This meant the power of Shen Yue's punch had reached approximately one hundred and twenty.
The students of the beginner warrior apprentice class let out gasps of surprise. They hadn't expected Shen Yue's physical body to have reached such strength; he had clearly already attained the Bronze Warrior realm. Generally, students who focused primarily on Demon Spirit power would see their physical strength increase fairly quickly at first, only slowing down after reaching the Silver level. But even so, the speed at which Shen Yue had trained his body was remarkably fast compared to his peers, reaching Bronze One Star so soon.
Everyone had three chances to test. Seeming unsatisfied with this result, Shen Yue repositioned himself, focused his strength, and threw another punch with all his might.
Boom!
Shen Yue struck the Strength Testing Stone again.
"Bronze One Star, test result: one hundred and thirty!"
"Bronze One Star, test result: one hundred and thirty-five!"
Seeing the results, Shen Yue looked pleased. He then proceeded to test his Demon Spirit power. Soon, the result was out: one hundred and fifteen. Typically, those who possessed both Warrior and Demon Spirit Master talent would almost always choose to become a Demon Spirit Master. Demon Spirit power was paramount; Warrior talent was merely an accessory.
"Shen Yue's Demon Spirit power has broken through one hundred! He's already a One Star Demon Spirit Master!"
"Such fast cultivation speed! Truly worthy of being from the Sacred Family!"
"Amazing! He'll definitely get into the beginner Demon Spirit Master class!"
"If even a One Star Demon Spirit Master isn't qualified, then who is?"
Hearing these discussions, the corner of Shen Yue's mouth twitched slightly upward as he looked at Nie Li and the others with a smug expression.
On the distant viewing stand, several academy officials showed satisfied smiles. For a beginner warrior apprentice class to produce a Demon Spirit Master was no small feat!
Shen Yue stood with his arms crossed in the distance, surrounded by a group of lackeys. His proud gaze swept over the other students in the beginner warrior apprentice class.
"Who's next for the test?" the guiding instructor looked at the crowd nearby.
"Let me!" Lu Piao stepped forward and walked towards the Strength Testing Stone to the side.
The students began to murmur.
"It's Lu Piao!"
"Lu Piao hasn't been to class in ages!"
"I heard he's always hanging out with Nie Li!"
"Lu Piao probably hasn't broken through to Bronze One Star, right? And he doesn't have any Demon Spirit Master talent at all!"
Hearing their chatter, Lu Piao turned back and exchanged a smile with Nie Li and Du Ze. These people were seriously underestimating them, which was a huge mistake! After cultivating the technique Nie Li gave him, Lu Piao's power had already far surpassed his peers.
Looking at Shen Yue and his group in the distance, Lu Piao showed a contemptuous smile and raised an eyebrow.
"This kid is too arrogant! We'll teach him a lesson sooner or later!" said a few of Shen Yue's lackeys.
Shen Yue's eyes narrowed slightly, a hint of cold light flickering within. Now even Nie Li's lackeys dared to provoke him? They clearly didn't know their place!
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Lu Piao walked up to the Strength Testing Stone, stood firm, and lightly threw a punch with his right hand.
"What power could such a light punch possibly have?" a few nearby students scoffed.
With a muffled *thud* that echoed through the entire hall, the entire Strength Testing Stone trembled.
"What's going on?"
