บท 25: Chapter 22 Assessment
Huo Qingyao was now extremely frightened.
As one of the three ultimate intelligence goddesses of the Cosmic Human Alliance, the Goddess of Wisdom's authority could be considered one of the highest.
Even the exalted Star Lords were reverent and cautious in front of the three goddesses, daring not to show a hint of impatience, for fear of lowering their "evaluation" in the eyes of the goddesses.
Now that the Goddess of Wisdom had personally descended into her main consciousness to issue a stern warning, Huo Qingyao felt as if the sky had fallen.
"Ah?!"
Huo Qingyao had not recovered from the shock when he heard Chu Shiyu's face suddenly turn pale beside him.
His level of horror was no less than Huo Qingyao's.
"Did you also check Lin Yuan's information?"
Huo Qingyao asked.
He suddenly turned his head to look at the other students and warned, "You mustn't go looking up Lin Yuan's personal information."
If even he had been warned by the Goddess of Wisdom for checking Lin Yuan's personal information, then it went without saying for the others.
They were all classmates, and their relationship was not at the point of being terrible; there was no need to watch one another get warned by the Goddess of Wisdom.
"Ah?"
The few girls looked on blankly.
Huo Qingyao briefly shared his own experience.
"What on earth is Lin Yuan's background that his personal information would be encrypted by the Goddess of Wisdom?"
Chu Shiyu came to his senses, his expression turning ugly.
It is true that in the era of Cosmic Human Civilization, a citizen's personal information is private.
But he had only wanted to find out why Lin Yuan's name had been removed from the draft list, and for that, he was warned by the Goddess of Wisdom?
Such a level of protection of personal information is only available to those with rare special talents or high-ranking citizens.
Could Lin Yuan be related to these two aspects?
"No matter what his background is, this time I've lost face completely."
Huo Qingyao's face turned slightly red as he had assured everyone just a moment ago, promising that he would ask his uncle to see if he could help Lin Yuan.
Yet, it turned out that Lin Yuan didn't need his help at all, his name having been removed from the list long ago.
"Zhao Qiwu, since you knew so early that Lin Yuan was exempt from the draft, do you know more..."
Chu Shiyu seemed to think of something and looked towards Zhao Qiwu, who was sitting at the side.
The others suddenly brightened up, turning their gazes towards Zhao Qiwu.
Indeed.
It was Zhao Qiwu who first mentioned that Lin Yuan was no longer on the draft list.
Clearly, Zhao Qiwu knew more than they did.
"I don't know much..."
Zhao Qiwu shook her head, hesitated for a moment, and then told the truth, "It's just that a few days ago, I was working part-time at the sales office of the newly opened Shuiyue Residential Complex."
"I saw Lin Yuan there, buying a residence directly..."
As soon as these words came out.
Everyone gasped in shock.
The Shuiyue Residential Complex was well-known; it had been heavily advertised when it was being developed.
It's a true high-end residential community, where the price of any house starts above ten million.
If Zhao Qiwu wasn't lying, Lin Yuan was definitely the wealthiest student in their school.
Casually spending ten million, even Chu Shiyu would find it hard to do unless he used his family connections to borrow money.
It wasn't that the Chu Family didn't have ten million in assets but that Chu Shiyu didn't represent the Chu Family.
Huo Qingyao and Chu Shiyu exchanged glances, their expressions quite complex.
They had competed with each other for three years in class, and probably, Lin Yuan had been watching it all.
Thinking of Lin Yuan's background, it probably seemed as ridiculous as watching a monkey show.
Zhao Qiwu glanced at Huo Qingyao and Chu Shiyu, who were looking dejected.
There was something else she hadn't mentioned; that Mr. Wang, the manager of the Shuiyue sales office, was as respectful to Lin Yuan as a grandson is to his grandfather.
The Shuiyue Real Estate Group was a well-known asset tycoon with markets spanning dozens of cities around, and Mr. Wang had connections with several leaders in Dongning City, yet he behaved in such a way in front of Lin Yuan.
Zhao Qiwu shuddered at the thought, realizing she had spent three years in the company of such a big shot.
"If..."
Zhao Qiwu bit her lip lightly, seemingly lost in thought.
"Could Lin Yuan really have such a significant background?"
Du Quan was somewhat dazed, having known Lin Yuan for three years, and yet now he felt as if he had never truly known him at all.
...
The Evolver's Association.
A silent black hover car glided in.
The hover car stopped, and Lin Yuan stepped down from it.
"Is this the Evolver's Association?"
A peculiar expression arose in Lin Yuan's heart.
In front of him was a grey building, exceedingly low-profile, without even a sign that read 'Evolver's Association.'
"Are you Mr. Lin Yuan?"
A woman dressed in a black skirt suit, with a somewhat short hemline ending just above the knee, revealing her fair and slender legs, came running over with small steps to ask tentatively.
"Yes, that's me."
Lin Yuan nodded.
"Mr. Lin, please come inside."
Zhu Qianqian stole a glance at Lin Yuan and immediately led the way.
She was the staff member who had failed to enter Lin Yuan's citizen number in time. Because of this, Zhu Qianqian had been under great pressure; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she was in a constant state of anxiety.
If she hadn't received Lin Yuan's forgiveness, she would probably have been fired by her supervisor today.
Mr. Lin looks so young... Zhu Qianqian led the way, with another surreptitious glance to the side.
Following Zhu Qianqian, Lin Yuan entered the grey building and arrived in front of an elevator.
Stepping into the elevator, Zhu Qianqian stood beside Lin Yuan and introduced, "Mr. Lin, before registering as an evolver, a test is required. Based on the test results, the evolver certificate will be issued."
"I'm aware of that."
Lin Yuan nodded.
The evolver certificate included a specific rank designation.
And this could only be determined through a test of strength.
Not long after.
The two of them took the elevator to the twenty-second floor.
Ding...
The elevator doors opened.
Inside were several small rooms.
Made of dark gold alloy, they were neatly divided into two rows.
"This is the room for Mr. Lin's assessment," said Zhu Qianqian, leading Lin Yuan to a door at the very end.
"The assessment is conducted in this room?"
Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow.
"Yes and no," replied Zhu Qianqian, nodding her head first then shaking it.
She pushed the door open.
Inside stood a silver-white metal cabin.
"This is the Virtual World Cabin Slot. The tests you take, Mr. Lin, will need to happen in the Virtual World," Zhu Qianqian said without any suspense.
"In the Virtual World?"
Lin Yuan looked around the room.
"Exactly," Zhu Qianqian said with a smile. "Powerful evolvers can easily destroy cities and devastate lands. Surely we can't allocate an entire planet for their strength assessment?"
"Therefore, the assessment for evolvers mostly takes place in the Virtual World."
Zhu Qianqian paused, then continued, "Mr. Lin need not worry that his strength in the Virtual World will be inconsistent with his real-world strength."
"This Virtual World Cabin Slot, as long as Mr. Lin lies down in it, can scan the whole body, thus perfectly simulating the physical body, and then synchronize it with Mr. Lin's body in the Virtual World."
"I see."
Lin Yuan nodded slightly.
Indeed, evolvers vary in strength. The weaker ones, like those who haven't reached a rank or are at the first rank, scales three or four, are manageable.
You could use a square for their strength assessment.
But for stronger evolvers, like Lin Yuan,
a casual strike could demolish the grey building beneath his feet,
and the even stronger ones, those at the second rank, third rank, or even fourth and fifth ranks...
How many resources would it take to test the strength of such powerful evolvers?
Therefore, placing the assessment location in the Virtual World is the most efficient method.
In the Virtual World, everything is virtual.
Simulating an entire galaxy is no challenge at all.
