Playing a DPS Role with Absolute Defense-Chapter 52 - 51: Great Xia College Entrance Exam—No, This Is the World’s College Entrance Exam!
"Hey, Xiao Fa, just listen to Su Mo and go all out on him.
Don’t worry, you won’t hurt him. With your level of power, Su Mo already eliminated several like you during the college entrance exams."
Wang Dehua glanced at Old Wang with an air of resentment. Although what you said is true, you didn’t have to say this in front of the students. As a teacher, don’t I deserve some respect?
"Should I just go ahead?" Wang Defa asked before making a move.
Su Mo patted his chest: "Teacher, just aim for here directly."
Wang Defa nodded, recalling Su Mo’s current strength and his awakened defense ability. Without any hesitation, he began to charge up for a big move.
Even though he knew that with his power, he might not hurt Su Mo, as a teacher, he still had to show his strongest side.
Even back when Su Mo punched him until he bled, he stubbornly found an excuse to rush to the toilet.
Old Wang was standing aside, holding his tea, watching intently forward and curiously spoke, "Hey, Mo, you haven’t told me what effect your skill has."
"Oh, it’s a rebound skill."
[Spurt~]
"Stop, hold up..."
Old Wang sprayed out a mouthful of tea and quickly stopped Wang Defa’s punch aimed at Su Mo’s chest, but his words were a step too late.
[Bang!]
The fist collided with Su Mo’s chest.
[Gulp~]
Wang Defa’s eyes widened, his throat moving several times, before he forcibly swallowed something down, his entire aura instantly weakened.
"Hey, Mr. Wang, are you alright?"
Wang Defa barely stood up, covering his mouth, coughing lightly twice, wanted to say something but his throat moved several times, just waved his hand gently, and said nothing.
"Principal, the teacher..."
Old Wang looked at Su Mo with an eerie glance, look at what you’ve done, a rebound skill, is this something you can just test out willy-nilly?
And you let the teacher use full strength... For a moment Old Wang seemed to remember that Su Mo never said he wanted them to use full force.
It seems it was me who let him...
Even though you didn’t ask us to use full force, testing rebound skills is quite excessive, don’t you think!
"Well, Mo, you go back first, your teacher isn’t feeling well these days. As for the test results, I’ll let you know."
Su Mo glanced at his class teacher with a bit of worry but didn’t say much and left directly.
Looks like after the college entrance exams, I’ll have to ask the master for some healing medicine, after all, that punch from Mr. Wang was anything but light.
Mr. Wang, seriously, at your age, it’s all about pride. If you had just spat out that mouthful of blood, it would have been at most a mild injury. Don’t end up with internal injuries from holding it in.
Su Mo shook his head and headed home.
The next day, Su Mo received a test report from Old Wang, though it wasn’t a disability report for Mr. Wang, 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
but rather a skill damage effect analysis based on Wang Defa’s recount of the injury and the power used at that moment.
Su Mo glanced roughly at it, didn’t quite understand, but learned from Old Wang that the rebound effect of his skill indeed matched the description and reached 20%.
Although later Old Wang still advised him not to rely too heavily on this ability, the rebound effect is only effective if you can successfully defend. If the defense fails, the skill would be invalid.
Su Mo agreed verbally, but internally he was dismissive, thinking that with his Absolute Defense ability, there was nothing he couldn’t defend against.
For the next two days, Su Mo stayed at home with his sister, waiting for the final ranking exam to arrive.
According to the usual schedule, today should have been the day for the ranking exam, but it was delayed by two days due to some reasons.
Mainly because the incident with Tu Hongwu accepting apprentices was still escalating.
Countries kept sending gifts to Great Xia, various Silver and Gold Dungeons, and even materials of the King level were all being documented in gift lists.
And their demands were simple, just needing a dozen college entrance exam spots.
Such matters made the top ranks of Great Xia quite troubled, and they then contacted Tu Hongwu.
"No problem, just accept what they send. Those foreign riffraff aren’t a match for any of my disciples."
This was Tu Hongwu’s original words, just this one sentence and it made the high ranks know.
This wasn’t accepting a college entrance exam top scorer as an apprentice, it was clearly promoting a disciple who had already been predetermined.
After realizing this, the top ranks of Great Xia accepted Germany’s offer of three Silver Dungeons and one Gold Dungeon very tactfully, and after two days of nonsense, finally decided on the positions for 10 spots.
Similarly for other countries, even domestic large families who looked down on college entrance exams or never participated, jumped out.
The initially set 200 ranking exam spots reached an astonishing 500 people after continuous additions over 4 days.
And it wasn’t just people from Great Xia, this truly is the most unprecedented college entrance exam, not only gaining global attention but also attracting countless foreigners.
Su Mo was unaware of this, but today the college entrance exam was about to begin.
Su Mo arrived early in the morning at the school square, a place that once was full of platoons, now couldn’t even gather ten people.
Excluding Su Mo, the other 8 were all from prominent families, though calling them that wasn’t quite right.
By the time of the ranking exam, almost everyone was from prominent families.
Except for Su Mo!
Lights flashed on the square, and in the next moment, Su Mo arrived at a gigantic plaza, surrounded by 99 similar squares.
The ranking exam had one difference from previous tests, and that was the entire exam was broadcasted live.
"Hello to all the viewers around the world, welcome to the annual high school entrance competition,
now we are at the most crucial part of the entrance competition, the ranking exam,
where today we will determine the top and the top 100 of Great Xia’s college entrance exam.
However, this year’s exam has some slight differences. First, allow me to introduce these 10 individuals from John High School in Germany, due to certain reasons, also participating in our exam this year. Everyone, give them a warm welcome!
Now we welcome the next team from Beautiful Country..."
All the viewers in front of the TVs were bewildered watching this scene.
Wasn’t this supposed to be our Great Xia’s college entrance exam?
Why are there so many foreigners!
Did they even participate in the previous school exams or national exams?
Joining directly in the final ranking exam, what’s going on?
How much money did you take from outside!
Foreigners joining is one thing, but doing it so openly with grand introductions, you’re letting the whole world know, aren’t you?
Actually, the top ranks of Great Xia were quite helpless, we accepted so much money from them, the spots were predetermined, and to prevent post-event troubles from these countries, an elaborate introduction had to be made.
Even though the more elaborate the introduction is at the front, the harder the fall would be after, at least we introduced you, right?
