"Huh, what are you two fighting about?"
Just when Bai Feng was going to release all his anger on Hang Dong, Ye Tian came out of the tower.
Bai Feng stood still as if he was electrocuted or something and didn't utter a single word. As for Hang Dong, he acted like he wasn't present there.
"Xin Yan, what happened to these two guys? Did something happen between them?"
....
"Xin Yan, do you hear me? Where are you lost?"
" Oh... About that? Ye Tian, Hang Dong told us everything about you."
Xin Yan didn't want to talk much as with every single word she spoke to Ye Tian, there was a flash of memories in which she asked him to ask her for help and even gave her best wishes to him for catching up with them.
She asked Ye Tian with a blush on her face.
"Ye Tian, why didn't you tell us before? We felt like we were fools when we saw you clear the whole 3rd floor ."
"We were even more embarrassed when we learnt everything about you from Hang Dong."
"Anyway, you have no fault in this. It's not like anyone should boast about their strength while making friends."
Ye Tian assessed the situation upon hearing Xin Yan's explanation and realised what this all was about.
" Bai Feng, you don't have to stand like a mummy now. Do you want me to put you in a casket or something ?"
Hang Dong threw some jokes at Bai Feng to ease up the mood.
" Ah, Ye Tian. You enjoyed f**king me too much from the back , didn't you?"
"You must be thinking I am some roadside w**re when I behaved like that around you."
"Ahem..ahem.. Hey, Bai Feng, don't mix your words like that, there is a lady with us. Mind your manners."
"Oh, shit! I lost my cool. I am sorry, Ye Tian. It's not like you were obliged to tell us , so forget about it. Let's start anew."
"Yeah, Yeah. There is no need to waste our time on something so trivial."
By expressing their inner thoughts, everyone sorted out their misunderstandings.
"Ye Tian, why didn't you go for the top spot when you are already this powerful?'
"Yeah , I had the same doubt. I mean, it was not necessary for you to show your true strength in the trial, but there is too much at stake here."
Bai Feng and Hang raised their doubts as anyone instead of them would have.
"Well, the only benefit of getting into the top five was the body refining potions, which I don't need for now."
"So what's the necessity of it ?"
Ye Tian solved their doubts with his reasons.
" You don't need those body refining potions? "
Bai Feng and Hang Dong spouted out at the same time and murmured to themselves.
'F**k! if you didn't want it, you should've given it to us . '
But they knew that they lost the opportunity.
The Artificial Tower.
Beep!!
"The Assessment is over. The Final Ranking will be announced soon."
Beep!!
A systematic voice sounded in the surroundings of the assessment area.
"Huh, it's over? "
"We were still watching them on the 4th floor. Have they given up at last?"
"Who is gonna be the first? All three of them had the same points when the stream got off."
"If all of them didn't finish the last robot they fought with, the final ranking will be decided on how much damage they dealt ."
"Who do you think is gonna win?"
"Wait and watch. We will know the results in a moment anyway. So, there is no need to be hyped up for this."
Aurora, Chu Zhou, and Tatsuya exited the tower and went back to their friends . All three of them looked at each other when they caught up with the crowd.
"I didn't expect anyone to be my equal in my batch. I guess I won't be bored in the future."
Aurora was not shocked when she learnt about Chu Zhou and Tatsuya, but rather excited.
Chu Zhou and Tatsuya had the same thoughts as they were quite sure of their strength too.
Outside the Assessment Area .
"Old Chen, don't you think that the Vice Head waited here for quite some time?"
"Yeah, he didn't do it in any assessments before. "
"I don't know myself. Is it because of that Tatsuya? But he isn't that different from a typical genius. "
The top five instructors who were gathered there were discussing about the mysterious man's intentions.
When they couldn't figure it out, they gave up and looked in the direction where the man was standing.
"Vice Head, do you have someone in your mind which we couldn't see?"
The mysterious man looked at them with a nonchalant smile.
"Haha..., Aren't you all a little too clever."
" There is indeed someone who is far stronger than the top students this year or even previous years."
"I won't tell you more than this. The rest is for you all to find."
The mysterious man vanished without a trace saying his last words to them .
" It turns that we were right. But how do we find that student?"
"It's too difficult to check for him now.
We have no access to the recordings of the Artificial Tower. We were only focusing on those highlighted students and not the rest."
"We lost the opportunity we had . But I am sure that student is definitely in the top fifty."
"Yeah , if I were him , I would definitely not miss those benefits."
The Instructors speculated about the unknown student who was the real dark horse this year after the mysterious man's disappearance.
Beep!! Beep!!
