Seeing people who were full of confidence being eliminated one by one, Ning Xin also became nervous, her eyes fixed on the testing equipment on the stage.
Seeing this, Li Mu comforted him softly, "Relax, even if you are not admitted to Shengtian Academy, you can still choose other ways. You don't have to hang yourself on this tree. After all, this world is still a world for ordinary people."
Ning Xin smiled bitterly: "How can a local tyrant like you understand ordinary people like us? I am the hope of the whole village. If I fail, I can only go home to farm, but if you fail, you can go home and inherit the family property."
Li Mu looked at Ning Xin in surprise and asked suspiciously, "You are the only one who knows how to farm? You don't look like a farmer, do you?"
"I'm just making a metaphor." Ning Xin said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "But it's almost the same. We are in a remote town, and the income is not high. The money I spent on this assessment is all my family's savings for several years."
"Well, if you don't mind, I'm in need of an assistant. If you are not accepted, would you like to follow me? Don't worry, the treatment will definitely be favorable." Li Mu said with a smile.
Li Mu didn't say this casually. He would feel more at ease if a genius like Ning Xin was by his side. Besides, he really needed an assistant.
Although he has a loyal subordinate like Kunpeng, Kunpeng is weak after all in this world and cannot do any work that requires physical effort.
Although Ning Xin is a woman, she is a local after all, and is much better than Kunpeng in every aspect.
Ning Xin rolled her eyes and didn't take it seriously. After all, she and Li Mu were just casual acquaintances. Why should he help her?
Besides, Li Mu didn’t leave a very good impression on her, so she might not agree if he really invited her to work for him.
While the two were talking, they had reached the end of the line, and the person in front of Li Mu had already started the test.
When the man entered the testing instrument, the door of the instrument closed, and 10 seconds later, a light above the instrument suddenly lit up.
"You have top fifth-grade qualifications and can enter the next round of assessment!" the inspector next to the instrument shouted.
There was a burst of envious voices all around.
Ning Xin also showed an envious expression.
"Next!" the inspector shouted.
Li Mu turned sideways and said to Ning Xin: "How about you go first?"
Ning Xin didn't refuse after hearing that. It was very fast anyway, and the result would come out in 10 seconds, so she hurried forward and entered the instrument.
However, after 10 seconds, the instrument still did not respond.
The inspector was also a little surprised, and said with a strange look on his face: "Waste body qualifications, completely incompatible with Qi, next one!"
"Wow!" The crowd was shocked. Waste body, isn't this a physique unique to fifth-class citizens? Can fourth-class citizens also have a waste body?
The test host shouted loudly: "Silence! Anyone who disrupts the venue will be disqualified from the test!"
It is not uncommon for fourth-class citizens to become disabled. There will always be one or two such people in every assessment in Jianyang City. The host is naturally not surprised.
At the urging of the inspector, Ning Xin walked out of the testing instrument with a pale face. A useless body, this hurt her self-esteem too much! Even if it was an ordinary physique, she could accept it!
Why was she a cripple? Wouldn't she be laughed at if she told others about it? How could she face her fellow villagers? Upon hearing this result, she couldn't stop her tears from welling up in her eyes.
However, Li Mu nodded secretly. It was true. Ning Xin was indeed a good candidate for cultivation. He would definitely take her out once he found a way out!
"What are you doing in a daze, kid? Come up and take the test! There are so many people queuing behind you!" the tester shouted to Li Mu.
Li Mu reacted after hearing this and quickly entered the instrument.
After entering the closed instrument space, he suddenly felt a flow of energy injected into his body. This energy was quite magical, like a stream of spiritual energy flowing in his body, making his body warm. However, this energy also had the completely opposite property of being cold.
He also tried to use the cultivator's methods to guide the energy to circulate in his body, but it was of no use. The energy ignored him and simply exploded and disappeared.
Li Mu was shocked! He could feel that this energy did not dissipate, but merged with his body and entered the cells in his body.
"This is impossible, there must be something wrong with the instrument!" There were bursts of exclamations coming from outside!
Upon hearing this, Li Mu did not bother to investigate the whereabouts of the energy, but walked out of the instrument directly. He saw that the five light bulbs above the instrument were all lit up. The brightness was amazing and continued to increase. After a while, the light bulbs went out again.
Looking closely, I found that the wick in the light bulb was actually melted.
Li Mu smacked his lips. What was going on? Was he that awesome?
The scene was completely silent at this time.
There was a loud clamor immediately afterwards, with many people saying that they had some inside information.
Who has such talent to make the detection instrument explode? This is simply unheard of. I'm afraid even members of the royal family can't do it!
Those who had completed the test but found the results to be unsatisfactory also shouted and asked everyone to re-test, as their previous test results were no longer valid since there was a problem with the instrument.
Seeing the situation getting out of control, the dean of Shengtian Academy, who was in charge of the test, stood up. She was an old woman with silver hair. She shouted loudly: "No noise is allowed in Shengtian Academy! We will get to the bottom of this matter. The test is temporarily suspended now!"
After the dean finished speaking, she directed several testers to start checking the test equipment. At the same time, she came to Li Mu and asked kindly, "Young man, what's your name?"
"Li Mu." Li Mu answered truthfully.
The old woman nodded, and then said: "Li Mu, it's not that we don't believe you, but your test results are really unbelievable. Now I would like to ask you to test again, is that ok?"
"That's as I should, haha. I also want to confirm whether I am really gifted." Li Mu smiled calmly.
Hearing Li Mu's affirmative answer, the old woman stopped talking nonsense and turned to the inspector of another testing instrument and said, "Test him again and show me clearly!"
"Yes, Dean!"
Following the guidance of the dean, Li Mu came to another testing instrument next to him. Just as he was about to enter, the dean stopped him and said, "Wait."
After saying that, he pointed at Ning Xin and said, "You go first."
Although Ning Xin's useless body is not as rare as Li Mu's super demonic qualifications, it is still very rare among fourth-class citizens. If there is a problem with the testing equipment, then the test results of Ning Xin's physical qualifications will be questionable.
