This is not mechanical ascension...

Chapter 85 Old Wu takes first place by force! Who disagrees?
"This class is pretty good. Rosser and his classmates are all good talents."

"Of course. We are getting more and more from the stars, and various auxiliary equipment are becoming more and more advanced. Naturally, each generation will be stronger than the last."

"I'm talking about development potential. Other things can be made up for later, but development potential is the cornerstone and the most important."

Several professors were whispering to each other, nodding with smiles from time to time, while Professor Wu was inattentive, thinking about the next plot.

With Li Ming's potential for development at level six, he will definitely be evaluated as orange, which should cause some waves. It would be normal for me to pay some attention to him at that time.

He had already found Li Ming's location and was paying attention to him all the time. As he was deep in thought, a gleam of light suddenly burst out from his eyes.

He stood up suddenly, which immediately attracted everyone's attention, and the other professors stopped talking.

They all understood that given Professor Wu's special circumstances, if he asked for someone.

The other party would basically not refuse, not to mention that some of them came just for him.

"What good seedling did Professor Wu see?" Professor Xia said with a smile: "At most, he is level 6. Can he catch Professor Wu's eye?"

Professor Bai was about to say a few words when he seemed to suddenly realize something. He looked to the right abruptly, and his expression changed drastically.

Professor Xia was a little slow to react and also looked over, with a look of surprise and doubt in his astonished eyes.

"Gold!? At least eight levels of development potential!? How is that possible!"

Professor Bai blurted out, and saw a golden beam of light so conspicuous among the colorful colors, rising straight into the sky.

The other professors had already stood up, looking in surprise at the direction of the golden beam of light. The virtual screen in front of them quickly enlarged, and Li Ming's face was clearly visible.

Some professors have already quickly retrieved the information--
"Li Ming, special admissions channel, recommendation letter from the Deputy Minister of Finance? Doesn't this guy buy and sell recommendation letters?"

"Are they from Silver Grey Star, or are they the city guards?"

This series of information made them even more shocked. It was completely different from what they had imagined. It was not a big family on Blue Star, and it was even more unknown.

At least, before today, almost no one had heard of this name.

"Who cares? With the potential for development at level eight, the minimum is a B-level life form. With enough resources, there's hope for A-level!"

"Those who come from small places are better." Several professors looked at Li Ming like wolves and tigers, their eyes turning green. Those who come from small places don't have so many complications and are perfect uncut gems.

The golden beam of light was reflected in Wu Yanqing's pupils, and he was also surprised. How could this kid be so powerful?
Level eight development potential. No, it’s at least level eight.

Why wasn't it detected before? Does he really have a way to hide his development potential?
Dean Chen's virtual projection had collapsed at some point.

……

"Gold! Who is Gold? Where does Gold come from?"

When the golden beam of light fell, the whole place was boiling, and everyone looked in the direction of the golden beam of light with horror in their eyes.

Including the candidates outside the examination area, their throats rolled, as they had never seen the golden column of light.

“You…you…you…” Yao Rui was close at hand, swallowing his saliva.

The golden beam of light seemed to be within reach. He stretched out his hand tremblingly and touched it, but then pulled it back as if he had been electrocuted.

Of course, the beam of light has no lethality.

Fang Wuji took a deep breath and stared at Li Ming's face, trying to remember this calm face.

Li Ming pondered in his heart, the blessing of four D-level gene radiators is indeed powerful.

He had not intended to attract so much attention, but then he thought that, according to the script, Professor Wu's special reminder to him would inevitably cause some waves.

Others might be more curious about him, so it would be better to directly show his strong development potential. This way there would be an explanation, and it would be easier for Old Wu to do things.

Of course there is another reason, which is to form a threat to Old Wu. It is true that Old Wu is a golden thigh.

But the two are not very familiar with each other after all. With so much attention on him, even if Old Wu really wants to slice him, he has to think twice.

More and more students gathered around. They had no other thoughts in their minds but simply wanted to see who was enveloped by the golden light.

There were even some curious people who captured Li Ming's facial image through smart terminals and then projected it into the air.

Farther away, Rosser and Qi Xing were enveloped by orange light beams, and the rest of the people were enveloped by purple light beams. They should have been the center of attention, but at this moment there were not many people around them.

They didn't care about this and all looked in the direction of the golden light column.

"Rosser, a surprise is coming." Qi Xing snapped his fingers and took a deep breath:

"Gold is at least level eight, two levels higher than us. Has anyone with the potential to develop into a gold person appeared in the history of the academy?"

"At least it won't appear in public." Rosser shook his head, frowning.

Qi Xing grinned: "Haha, we acted as if all the spots were already reserved. Who would have thought that there would be a surprise? Interstellar is so interesting."

"Who is he?" Nuo Xing looked up. There was not a single flaw on her delicate face. Her eyes were like the reflected starry sky, looking at the virtual projection in the air.

"The information is here." Qi Xing opened the smart terminal and someone had already sent him a document, very efficiently.

"Li Ming is an orphan now. He was admitted to school through special channels. He used a letter of recommendation from the Deputy Minister of Finance. What about that fat guy? That fat guy bought and sold letters of recommendation." Qi Xing muttered, and then said:
"He was a loner, and was bullied at school to the point of being afraid to go to school. After his father died in a car accident, his personality changed drastically, and he joined the City Guards, and then he soared to fame."

"It is worth mentioning that he had dinner with Professor Wu, and during the dinner table test, his development potential was only level three excellent."

"What do you mean?" Rosser frowned.

Qi Xing shrugged: "It means that either Professor Wu made a mistake, or Professor Wu deliberately hid this treasure."

"The truth is out. No wonder Professor Wu suddenly said he wanted to leave the mountain after coming out of Silver Ash Star. It seems that he did it for this person."

Rosser looked tense, and the other people had different expressions.

.........

"Fuck, fuck, fuck, that's Brother Ming! Brother Ming!"

The fat boy Ge Hong was going crazy, Zhang Huaiyuan was dumbfounded, Liang Long clenched his fists, and Ji Ya was shaking Yang Yu wildly and screaming.

Yang Yu's eyes were red, and there was not only excitement and joy in his eyes, but also unconcealable fear.

Even Wang Bing, who was always rational, was shaking with his fingers as he pushed up his glasses.

"Little guy, you gave me a big surprise." Xu Wei placed his hands on his chest, his face flushed, and he was gasping for breath.

"Sister Xu, there is big news this time." The young man next to her said excitedly.

"More than that, more than that!" Xu Wei suppressed her excitement. The report she had carefully crafted could finally be sent out, and the effect might be better than she expected.

……

"Move aside, move aside, don't gather, and don't cause a stampede!" The city guards came over quickly to prevent too many people from causing casualties, and quickly sorted out the flow of people.

"Student Li Ming." Professor Xia landed from the hoverboard with a smile.

"Get out of the way, this is my man." Professor Wu followed closely behind, speaking bluntly.

"Professor Wu." Li Ming nodded slightly.

"Professor Wu, what do you mean? What do you mean by your people? He hasn't chosen who to follow yet? You are too overbearing!" The professors who followed were unhappy.

It would be fine if it were other people, as they don’t want to offend Professor Wu, but this person’s development potential is too amazing.

"You still don't understand? This isn't the first time Professor Wu has met him." Professor Bai snorted coldly, "Level 3 Excellent? You're amazing. You hid it so well!"

Several professors hesitated and looked at each other: "Professor Bai, what do you mean?"

"What do you mean?" Professor Bai said in a deep voice, "It means that when Professor Wu was on Silver Gray Star, he had already discovered his difference and paved the way for him to come here."

"Just waiting for today's assessment, and making a splash!"

"Uh..." Professor Xia was puzzled. "That would be a waste of time. Professor Wu could just bring it back directly."

Professor Bai had a look of seeing through everything: "Bring him back? If you don't go through the admission process of the Polytechnic University, do you still want the support of the Itlan civilization? Can you enter the special training class?"

"Is he a student of Capital University of Technology, or a private student of Professor Wu?"

Li Ming had a strange look on his face. The strange logic was consistent with an even stranger statement.

Professor Wu narrowed his eyes slightly. Although it didn't go according to the script, this explanation seemed more reasonable.

Then, he shook his head calmly: "I don't know what you are talking about, Li Ming, you and I met once, I didn't expect that I didn't discover your potential at that time, now are you willing to become my student?"

The professors all understood at this point, so they just watched coldly as the show continued.

"I do, professor." Li Ming nodded.

"Okay!" Professor Wu nodded, looked around and said, "Level 8 development potential, should be the first, do we still need to take the test?"

Li Ming's eyebrows jumped. This Old Wu is really awesome. He is going to take first place directly.

"No. 1!" Professor Bai's cheeks twitched, and he said flatly, "Impossible. Developing potential is only one aspect. He was admitted through a special channel, he doesn't even have grades, let alone actual combat experience. How can he be the first?"

"Those subjects are for training mediocre people. He is not a mediocre person, and he does not need those achievements." Old Wu fired at full force: "You all understand how big the gap will be when others have less potential to develop than him and reach a higher level of life!"

"He should be number one!"

It has never been ranked first simply based on its development potential.

"Are you sure you want to compete with me? I have plenty of time to play with you." Professor Wu's aura was fully open. Professor Xia looked at Professor Bai, and Professor Bai, who was originally passionate, was a little hesitant at this moment.

It's easy for him to speak quickly for a while, but if he really confronts Professor Wu in the future, he will not have peace.

"Whether you are number one or not is not decided by you, nor by them." Dean Chen pushed through the crowd. It was not a virtual projection, but a real person.

"Dean Chen, you don't want to?" Professor Wu asked back.

"The first place was not decided by me, but by them." Dean Chen swept his hand over the gathered students and said calmly:
“Why are there so many assessment stages? Why do we need to publicly develop potential? It’s so that they will be convinced and admit that there is one person who can surpass all of them.”

"Ask them if they are willing to admit it. If they admit it, the other professors will naturally have no objection."

"That's right." Professor Bai quickly agreed.

Dean Chen is worthy of being Dean Chen, he is so vicious.

Old Wu had no psychological burden in arguing with these professors, but it would be a different story if he were asked to oppress these students. Old Wu was proud in his heart, and Li Ming saw it clearly.

The many freshmen gathered here looked at each other. Those who came over to watch the fun really didn't have any other emotions in their hearts.

First, it is too far away from them.

Old Wu frowned, feeling a little tricky.

Li Ming saw that Old Wu was in a dilemma at the moment, so he took a step forward and said loudly under the gaze of everyone: "Who, don't accept it!?"

These words were powerful, but the many students gathered around did not sense that kind of arrogance and disrespect from Li Ming. It was as if they were just casually asking if they had eaten.

Most people did not react. They knew clearly that this sentence was not spoken to themselves, but to those who were already capable of competing for the first place.

Seeing Li Ming take the initiative to step forward, Professor Wu's expression regained his calm. It was the most appropriate relationship between professor and professor, and student and student.

Professor Bai snorted coldly, and Professor Xia squinted his eyes and said nothing.

Even though there were some doubts before, Li Ming took the initiative to step forward, which confirmed that he and Professor Wu had been in contact for a long time.

Cunning and treacherous, these two men seem to have been cast from the same mold.

Then there was a long silence. His voice was not loud, and it was impossible for him to say it again. The news was spreading quickly among the people.

Professor Wu pondered in his heart. He knew that there were several talented kids in this class. They had been brought up at home since they were young and there was no flaw in them in any aspect.

Li Ming only fused the gene seeds about half a year ago, so there is still a certain gap between him and them.

However, he was not the first. Due to his declining reputation in recent years, the resources he could obtain on Blue Star were becoming fewer and fewer.

As one of the key supported projects, Capital University of Technology has access to the resources of the Itlan civilization, which is an extremely special qualification.

As long as he could enter the special training class, Professor Wu would accept it, but he knew that he was not popular among this group of people, so he had to settle for second best.

Instead, you will be suppressed again and again, so it is better to just come out and ask for a huge amount of money.

"No one said anything?" Ten minutes passed, and noisy voices rose and fell, but no one stood up to confront Li Ming.

Professor Bai felt agitated and looked in a certain direction. He knew that group of people were ready to make a move, but they were afraid of Professor Wu.

The families behind them all coveted the vague rumors surrounding Professor Wu.

But if the first place was taken away by Professor Wu, he was afraid that he would not be able to eat at night and would feel uncomfortable for several months.

The first customized gene seed was not produced by Capital University of Technology, but came from one of the interstellar support treaties. It was personally formulated by the Itlan civilization and is extremely precious.

Another five minutes passed, and finally, a voice came -
"I'm not convinced."

The voice was very calm, without any resentment or anger, and was similar to the tone Li Ming had just used.

The crowd made way for a path, and the blond-haired and blue-eyed Rosser took the lead, followed by Qi Xing, Nuo Xing and others.
