After one minute, only a dozen or so people from Cheng Xing's group were still holding on.
But soon, people were eliminated one after another, leaving after being graded by the examiner.
Finally, only Cheng Xing and Cheng Yun remained on the field.
"Am I seeing this right? Cheng Xing can actually last this long?"
"Isn't he an F-grade talent? How is that possible? I didn't even last ten seconds."
"He couldn't have cheated, could he?"
...
At this moment, everyone who knew Cheng Xing, except Chu Yanyan, expressed their doubts.
Their discussions were immediately overheard by others nearby, and the accusations grew louder.
"Examiner, I report that person for cheating! How can an F-grade talent last this long?!"
"Exactly! I'm an E-grade talent, level 5, and I didn't even last 20 seconds. How can he last this long?"
"We demand a thorough investigation!"
...
The huge uproar woke up Chen Yifei, who was sleeping nearby. He got up with a displeased expression and glanced at the examiner at Cheng Xing's position.
The examiner, receiving the signal, immediately began checking the machine, but after a thorough inspection, he shook his head at Chen Yifei.
"Quiet! There's nothing wrong with the machine."
As Chen Yifei let out a cold shout, a huge pressure emerged from all directions, falling upon the examinees.
At this moment, his level appeared above his head, visible to everyone.
"Level 49!"
Everyone's breathing tightened. They hadn't expected this seemingly unkempt person to be only one step away from being a War God.
After Chen Yifei spoke, no one dared to question him again. Seeing the silence, Chen Yifei retracted his aura and continued to lie down and sleep.
"Aren't mentors usually levels 20-30?"
"A level 49 mentor, who is this person? He's so strong."
"I don't know, I've never heard of such a strong mentor at South China Martial University."
...
For a time, the focus of everyone's discussion shifted to Chen Yifei.
Soon, the time reached 2 minutes and 40 seconds. At this point, Cheng Xing suddenly opened his eyes and actively took off his helmet.
"Hmm?"
His action made the examiner nearby pause in surprise. This person finished?
He looked at the machine but didn't see the red light indicating death or failure.
"Student, please wait a moment, there's a problem with the machine."
The examiner, looking confused, quickly called out to Cheng Xing, who was about to leave.
"See, I knew there was a problem."
"Exactly, how could an F-grade last this long?"
"I guess the machine's values were set incorrectly, maybe it assigned him an F-grade Disaster Beast."
...
Seeing this, the others immediately gloated, but having learned their lesson, they didn't dare to make a loud fuss again.
Seeing the reactions of these people, Chu Yanyan remained very calm, because she knew Cheng Xing's level, and with his level, he couldn't possibly fail.
"Hahahaha! I succeeded!"
At this moment, Cheng Yun's feet turned red, and he failed and exited right at the 3-minute mark.
This way, he easily got full marks.
As soon as he took off his helmet, he discovered that Cheng Xing was still there, which made his face change color in shock.
How could an F-grade talent like Cheng Xing be ahead of him?
But Cheng Yun quickly realized the problem, because even though he got full marks, not many people were complimenting him; instead, it was a unanimous condemnation of Cheng Xing.
"Cheating? No wonder he lasted so long."
Thinking of this, Cheng Yun's face was filled with disdain.
"Trash is trash, to even dream of getting into a Martial University by cheating."
"This is simply not knowing one's place."
Cheating on the college entrance exam was illegal, so Cheng Xing was completely finished this time.
"Look, the mentor is getting up."
"That's a level 49 big shot, what small trick can escape his eyes?"
"Hehe, he can't run away now."
...
At this moment, someone noticed Chen Yifei getting up again and walking towards Cheng Xing and the other person. The examinees were filled with schadenfreude.
Especially those who had failed, their aggression was even stronger.
Listening to their words, Cheng Yun was greatly surprised. This person was actually a level 49 mentor?
That was an existence only one step away from being a War God, and he looked to be only twenty or thirty years old.
Watching Chen Yifei walk straight towards him, Cheng Yun suddenly thought.
"Could it be that he saw my good performance and is preparing to take me as his student?"
In an instant, Cheng Yun couldn't help but fantasize about relying on Chen Yifei to pave the way, and then using the Cheng Family's resources to rise to the top, becoming the youngest War God in Hua Nan Base overnight.
Thinking of this, Cheng Yun felt giddy. Seeing Chen Yifei approaching him, he quickly tidied his clothes, straightened his back, and confidently spoke while extending his hand to shake hands.
"Mentor, my name is Cheng Yun, I am War God Cheng Zhengyang's son..."
His sudden movement startled Chen Yifei, who looked at Cheng Yun with a strange expression.
Cheng Yun's outstretched hand was not taken, and Chen Yifei hurried past him, leaving his unfinished words stuck in his throat.
"Cheng Zhengyang's son? Is he crazy?"
"And he doesn't even look like him, could he have been picked up from outside? How pathetic."
Chen Yifei's low mumble made Cheng Yun's frozen smile instantly turn gloomy.
After bypassing Cheng Yun, he came before Cheng Xing.
Cheng Xing was slightly surprised by Chen Yifei's level, but he didn't show too much emotion. After all, before upgrading, he dared to curse Cheng Zhengyang to his face, so how could he fear a level 49 mentor?
Cheng Xing's demeanor fell into Chen Yifei's eyes, making him think highly of him. After all, very few newcomers could be so calm when facing him.
After asking the examiner and confirming that the machine had no problems, Chen Yifei's brows furrowed.
He turned his head and carefully sized up Cheng Xing, focusing his gaze. In a moment, Cheng Xing's level appeared above his head.
When the difference in Awakeners' levels is too great, even if a lower-level Awakener restrains their aura, their level will still be seen through by a higher-level Awakener.
Seeing Cheng Xing's unexpected level, Chen Yifei was stunned, and then an unbelievable answer appeared in his mind, completely dispelling the sleepiness in his eyes.
"You killed an E-grade Disaster Beast?"
Chen Yifei asked with a strange expression.
"Is it not allowed to kill them?"
Cheng Xing scratched his head and asked in confusion.
The exam requirements didn't say that virtualized Disaster Beasts couldn't be killed, did they?
However, the weapon's level was still too low, and without armor, Cheng Xing could have solved the problem in a minute.
Seeing Cheng Xing admit it, Chen Yifei looked as if he had discovered a treasure. This explained why he could come out early without a failure prompt.
Chen Yifei then took the document recording student information from the examiner's hand, looked at the information on it, and said with a puzzled expression.
"F-grade? What are you kidding about?"
"You're level 13, and you killed an E-grade Disaster Beast by yourself. You must have an S-grade or higher talent, right?"
Chen Yifei's next words made Cheng Yun's eyes widen, his face filled with disbelief.
"What?! How can he be an S-grade talent?!"
