Lightning-type E-rank? My Space-time-type S-rank can't be hidden anymore!

His voice rose a half-octave as he said, "Just passing by??? You just passed by a college entrance exam site, and then thought it was interesting and wanted to sign up???"

"Do you know how long we've been preparing for this day?!"

Song Zhiyi also looked over, a hint of curiosity in her eyes.

Chen Mo pushed up his glasses.

"Can I get reimbursed?" Lin Yuan asked again.

Jiang Ran took a deep breath and said in a tone that said, "I give up." "Yes. The college entrance examination for people with superpowers is a national unified exam. It is not limited by household registration or school registration. As long as you are a citizen of China, over eighteen years old, and have awakened your superpower, you can register to take the exam at any test center."

On-site registration, on-site verification, and on-site assignment of exam numbers.

He pointed to a two-story building next to the main building of the combat training base, with a sign hanging at the entrance that read "Registration Office for Out-of-Town Candidates".

Compared to the long queue at the main registration area, the area was deserted, with only a few people filling out forms.

"There. Just bring your ID card and proof of your superpower awakening."

Lin Yuan nodded.

He had proof of awakening; it was a small metal card, about the size of a palm, issued by the Superpower Association on the day of awakening. It recorded the awakening time, the type of superpower, and the initial level.

F-rank lightning type.

There have been no updates about his ability leveling up to E, but that's not important.

Thanks.

He patted Jiang Ran on the shoulder, then stepped out of the group and walked towards the small building.

Jiang Ran called out from behind, "Hey! You're really going?"

Lin Yuan turned around and waved to him.

As Song Zhiyi watched the figure carrying the long gun walk into the registration office, she suddenly said, "His gun doesn't look like something a student would use."

Chen Mo rarely spoke up: "There's a mark on the gun barrel, very fresh, left by a burning-type ability. At least level two."

Jiang Ran turned to look at the two of them: "What do you mean?"

Song Zhiyi did not answer.

She stared at the closed registration office door, her gaze carrying an indescribable meaning.

Behind the registration window sat a young female staff member with a ponytail, watching a drama on her phone.

Seeing someone come in, she pressed the pause button, looked up, and gave a professional smile.

"Hello, are you registering as a student from another region?"

"Yes."

"Identity card and proof of awakening."

Lin Yuan handed over the two cards.

The female staff member took it, swiped it on the device, and his information popped up on the computer screen.

Her gaze lingered on the "Ability Level: F-rank Lightning" column for a moment, then she glanced at Lin Yuan, her eyebrows twitching almost imperceptibly, but she said nothing.

"Fill out this form." She handed me a form and a pen.

Lin Yuan took it and glanced at it.

Name, gender, age, ID number, type of superpower, current level, emergency contact person.

He picked up the pen and filled it out quickly.

In the "Current Realm" column, he thought for a moment and wrote "First Rank, Fourth Level".

Just like what I told Jiang Ran earlier.

The female staff member took the form, checked it once, and then did a few operations on the computer.

The machine next to him spat out a palm-sized plastic-sealed card with his photo, name, and a number printed on it—Hangzhou test center, number 1137.

"The exam is tomorrow morning at eight o'clock, and the location is this training base." She handed him the card.

"Arrive half an hour early, and bring your ID card, admission ticket, and personal weapon. The exam content and specific rules will be announced on-site tomorrow."

Lin Yuan took the admission ticket and glanced at the back.

The back is printed with exam instructions, in very small font, a dozen or so densely packed lines.

He glanced at it briefly; nothing particularly special.

"Thanks."

He put away his admission ticket and walked out of the registration area.

The sunlight outside was even more dazzling than before, and the group was still slowly moving forward. Jiang Ran and his two companions had moved about twenty meters ahead of them.

Lin Yuan didn't go back to look for them; he would naturally run into them during the exam tomorrow.

He stood in the square at the entrance of the combat training base, took out his phone and glanced at the time.

Two o'clock in the afternoon.

The superconducting train from Hangzhou to Shanghai departs at 7 p.m. He originally planned to wait at the station for four hours, but now he intends to play around with the national college entrance examination for superhumans.

He sent a message to Shen Man from the university in Shanghai.

The wording was simple: "Teacher Shen, I'm in Hangzhou. I've registered for the college entrance exam for people with superpowers. I'll go to Shanghai after I finish the exam."

Shen Man's reply came in less than thirty seconds.

"???"

The second point follows immediately.

"You can ride a superconducting train and then suddenly find yourself taking the college entrance exam???"

Article 3.

"Fine. Don't say you're a student I recruited if you don't do well on the test."

Lin Yuan smiled and put his phone back in his pocket.

The college entrance exam for those with superpowers is tomorrow, while the start of the new semester at universities in Shanghai is in half a month.

These two weeks cannot be wasted.

Lin Yuan chose to participate in the field-based college entrance examination for a simple reason: firstly, he suddenly became interested.

Secondly, there are still two weeks until the start of the new semester at universities in Shanghai.

Lin Yuan had previously asked Shen Man if he could immediately obtain all the S-level benefits even if he went to the Shanghai Academy, because he was still preparing...

Thirdly, he believed that participating in this field battle would grant him ability points and the opportunity to fight against other candidates from the same cohort, and he didn't believe that there wasn't a single capable candidate in Hangzhou.

Before the start of the semester at the prestigious university in Shanghai, he needs to improve his strength as much as possible and prepare for the fusion of the ten wheels.

To achieve this, one needs special ability points, bone-tempering pills, and various auxiliary materials.

I need money.

He opened his mobile banking app and glanced at his balance.

The monster materials killed in the wasteland over the past ten days have brought in a considerable amount of money. Combined with the S-level freshman allowance that Shen Man received in advance yesterday, the account balance shows: 5,523,800.00.

Five and a half million.

When Shen Man transferred the money to him, she added a message: "This is your living allowance and resource purchase fee before you start school. Be careful with your money. Pay for your own milk tea." She followed it with a milk tea cup emoji.

Looking at the message, Lin Yuan suddenly realized that Shen Man, despite her seemingly lazy and carefree attitude and constant milk tea, was actually quite reliable.

She said she would advance the funds for S-level freshmen without batting an eye, even five million.

Of course, this also shows how wealthy the universities in Shanghai are, that a student who has not yet officially enrolled can receive an advance of five million yuan in funding.

He thought for a moment and replied to Shen Man with a message: "Teacher Shen, you are the best admissions teacher in the world."

Shen Man replied instantly: "Speak like a human."

"I'll pay for the milk tea myself."

"Good boy."

Lin Yuan put away his phone and hailed a hover taxi.

"Master, go to the largest market for superhumans in Hangzhou."

The market for trading superhumans in Hangzhou is more than ten times larger than that in Donghai City.

The trading market in Donghai City is just one street with stalls on both sides and pedestrians walking in the middle; it's more like a market.

The trading market in Hangzhou is an entire building—six floors above ground and three floors below ground, with different categories on each floor.

The first floor is for weapons and armor, the second floor for elixirs and spiritual materials, the third floor for cultivation techniques and runes, the fourth floor for monster materials, the fifth floor for rare and miscellaneous items, and the sixth floor for the auction house.

The third basement level is the processing area, offering a one-stop service for forging, alchemy, and rune engraving.

Lin Yuan stood at the entrance of the building, looking up at the huge holographic sign above the entrance.
