"Although there are many geniuses this year, this record is still difficult to beat."
"Huh? Stop talking, the list is coming."
Grosser looked upward. The others also stopped discussing and they all looked up at the sky.
***
On other examination squares, all the geniuses looked better than when waiting for the second subject, they were more focused. Traylor, Morgan, and others were staring intently at the list that was about to appear. There was no difference for them because the second subject couldn't pull any score.
The difference between the four was not even one point, but the third subject was different. It was highly likely to open up a three or four or even five or six-point gap. This score difference, for those competing for the overall top spot, was huge.
Time passed second by second. Finally, it came to 6:10.
A brilliant light flashed, and the text above the previous huge floating leaderboard disappeared into thin air. Immediately after that, another light surfaced. On the list, the admission ticket number, name, and score slowly appeared one after another. In a few moments, the whole list was filled up. The results of all candidates appeared one after another.
Their eyes were wide open with unprecedented nervousness as the results of this third subject came out. Plus the second subject and the first subject in the morning, the three subjects' results contain nearly half of the seven hundred and fifty.
Could they get into an academy? They could tell. In previous years, there were just a lot of candidates, but at the end of the first day of the exam, because of poor performance, they directly ended the exam and did not take the next day's exam. This year would be roughly the same.
After a few moments, there were countless wailing sounds.
"Ah, how come I only scored 55? Usually, my ratings are over 60 points!"
"42 points, the examiner is too cruel."
"Impossible! I only scored 62, that's impossible! There must be a mistake somewhere; I'm a genius in my school!"
"60 points haha, just passed, it seems I burned incense and prayed to the god before had an effect."
"I also scored 60, hey, the top academies are out with this score!"
"70. My third subject is 70! Haha, look, I got 70 points!"
Each of them was wailing and sighing. Others were excited and ecstatic, but for most of the candidates, the mood was not good. Even Francis, who was looking at his results, frowned slightly.
Sebastian looked over, only to see Francis's score was 68. It was not a very high score.
As usual, every tenth was a notch. 90 points, 80 points, 70 points, 60 points, four notches. If it failed to pass, then it was counted as an additional notch to get into a top academy. Seventy points and above was more stable.
Because of the poor performance, Francis just smiled reluctantly; he didn't have the heart to joke with Sebastian. The majority of the individual candidates were concerned about themselves. For a while, no one bothered to look at the others' results.

In the Conference Room of Oakleaf School, the faces of the school leaders and teachers were also not very good-looking. They discovered that this year, the results of the third subject were generally low, let alone 80, it was hard to see one of the 70.
"This year is recognized as the year with the most geniuses and the fiercest competition, so the examiners are supposed to be grading more strictly because of that." An older teacher guessed.
"That should be the case." Steiner nodded and said, "The bigger the competition, the lower the score."
"But..." Nelissen replied: "In this way, it is very unfavorable for ordinary candidates; on the contrary, it won't have much effect on those Super-Geniuses."
Nelissen also took the examination in the past year and was the person who won first place, so she was more aware of these.
"Let's see the results first," Merlin said.
Nelissen took the initiative and found the spot of Lucy first, this was also a matter of familiarity. Soon, the results of Lucy were projected.
"Lucy, 80 points!" Nelissen's clear and crisp voice rang out.
It lifted everyone's spirits.
"80 points, Lucy managed to get to this score."
"Every tenth notch, although the difference between 79 points and 80 points is only one point, they are different. The examiner's score is very strict. If Lucy is given 80 points, it shows that he is very optimistic about Lucy's planet."
"The principal is right; Lucy did give us a surprise."
Everyone was quite happy. Of course, they all knew what 80 points meant. This was a different concept from the 84 points in the second subject. The first team in the second subject was all over 95 points, so the difference was not large.
In the third subject, the highest in history was only 90 points. Most of the top students were around 85 points, so 80 points was a very good score.
"Bailey, score..." Nelissen, at this time, turned to the results of Bailey, slightly froze, and then said, "85 points."
Once again, the conference room was silent. The excitement on each face disappeared immediately before it could be thickened.
It was not much of a surprise to Merlin. Instead, he shook his head, smiled, and said, "No choice, she has the Heart of the Stars, so a very exceptional creature must have been created. Together with the Blessed Order Clan and the Treant, the third subject's results are bound to be no worse."
"That's also true." Steiner nodded and said, "We all underestimated the effect of the Heart of the Stars. This is known as the most precious treasure on the planet. Looking at the effect of Bailey's use, it is indeed very amazing."
"Let's see Sebastian's," Merlin said.
"Sebastian has hope to get a score of 70 or more, right?" A teacher said, "With the full score of the second subject, he can at least be guaranteed to rank in the top 10,000 and be admitted to a top academy."
"Let's hope so." The other teachers all nodded.
At this time, after seeing this amazing achievement of Bailey again, in the hearts of all people, the last glimmer of the idea of competing for the top spot in the exam has disappeared. They started to calm down and think things through.
The first prize could not be taken and they couldn't get into the top academies, then retreat to the next best thing. It was also good to get into a decent institute. For Oakleaf School, there were only a few students who could go to top academies every year.
***
On the eighth floor of the Planet Association, the atmosphere was very subtle. After seeing Lucy's result, once again, it was pulled away by Bailey. All the people were silent, Edward's face was also not very good. This was the one subject for which he had the greatest hope for Lucy.
Lucy's results were not bad. There were 80 points, but it was not unexpected. But Bailey's score was even more inflated, it went straight to 85 points. It was almost ready to go for first place.
In this way, it was almost certain that the top student in their examination, Lucy, had already lost the competition. Thus, she had to deal with hundreds of geniuses to compete for those 500 spots. Edward found it very problematic.
"Let's see the results of the major talents in the State." The middle-aged supervisor flipped the projection page and broke the dull atmosphere, saying, "First, let's look at the results of Sebastian, another genius from Atlanta; I don't think it should be bad."
The middle-aged supervisor could be said to be the one who knew the most about him. So, at this time, he judged that Sebastian's score in the third subject would not be bad.
"Let's take a look." Edward forced out a smile. He knew that he couldn't let his emotions stir up the atmosphere too much.
After a few moments, Sebastian's results appeared in front of the crowd. A teacher who just drank the water sprayed it out.
***
In Tianjing City's Examination Square, Grosser looked at the results on the list. He couldn't help but curl a smile at the corner of his mouth and said, "As expected, my score was 85, nothing unexpected and not much different from the other Super-Geniuses."
"Young master, Traylor got 87 points." The maid next to him said.
"There's still no comparison." Grosser sighed and asked, "What about the others? Are there others who are better than me?"
"I've looked at it." The maid said, "There are four who surpassed you. The one from Klikovichy City got 87 points, the one from Amber City also got 87 points, and the one from Chiritin City was the highest, getting 88 points."
"It's not surprising that these three surpass me; who is the other one?" Grosser asked.
"A candidate named Gaétan, who is also from Chiritin City, got 87 points." The maid replied.
"This year has hidden geniuses." Grosser lamented, "First, a candidate from Atlanta got a perfect score, and now this is another nobody who can compete with four Super-Geniuses. By the way..." Grosser suddenly remembered something and said, "Where is Sebastian, who scored full marks in the second subject before? What did he do on the third subject?"
"Let me see." The maid looked at the list on the right. These were the results of all candidates in the entire State. After a few moments, there was a hesitant voice from the beautiful maid: "Master, he seems to have a full score again?"
"Huh?" Grosser was slightly stunned, then he looked up. Subsequently, another curse, "F*ck, did you make a mistake? Is there a problem with this list?"
***
In other examination squares, most people were grieving. The sound of wailing and sighing kept ringing out. This year's scoring standards had been raised considerably, which caused a lot of people's grades to be less than ideal!
But one of the Super-Geniuses, their face did not change so much. As expected, the best result was the one from Chiritin City. It was only 87 points, and other geniuses could not close the gap.
However, someone noticed something wrong with the list. In the Atlanta Examination Square, which was the first to notice, there was already an uproar. Everyone was staring at Sebastian's name and the extremely dazzling figure near it was 100.
