Chapter 39 Wen Miao vs. Jiang Yu
Outside the examination room.

Shang Tianqi emerged from the testing cabin, panting heavily.

Because of the excessive mental exertion during the selection competition, Shang Tianqi is now covered in cold sweat and his head is buzzing.

Shang Tianqi clutched his throbbing head and looked around the temple.

To his surprise, the center of the temple was now filled with people.

More than 500 eliminated candidates were sitting in the spectator area, their eyes fixed on the temple dome, not looking away for a moment.

Shang Tianqi clearly saw that their faces were frozen in shock and disbelief.

It was as if there was something extraordinary there.

Shang Tianqi frowned slightly, feeling utterly bewildered.

The selection process is over, what are they still doing here?

Also, what are they looking at?
Following the gazes of the other examinees, Shang Tianqi turned his head and was surprised to see a huge surveillance screen on the dome of the temple.

Looking at the surveillance footage in front of him, Shang Tianqi froze, completely dumbfounded, and inwardly screamed with rage:
Ahhh, help!
It turns out that not only the proctor saw him being teased by a group of monkeys, but other candidates also saw it.

This is too embarrassing!

Let him die!
Of course, it's impossible to truly die.

After finally managing to calm himself down from his suicidal thoughts, Shang Tianqi looked at the side of the surveillance screen with a heartbroken expression.

That's the leaderboard for this qualifying tournament.

The first place goes to Jiang Yu.

With 66 points, monopolizing half of the exam points, he is undoubtedly number one by a wide margin.

Shang Tianqi pursed his lips, not finding it surprising at all.

Because this is normal.

Since Jiang Yu enrolled in the Federal Theological Seminary four years ago, he has never been second!
Wherever he was in the exam room, he was always the winner.

Shang Tianqi's gaze continued downwards.

However, the second place was a completely unfamiliar name—

Wow, that's wonderful!

35 points!

Upon seeing this, Shang Tianqi's eyes widened suddenly, and he could no longer maintain his calm expression.

It must be her!

Almost subconsciously, Shang Tianqi connected the examinee who defeated him with Wen Miao.

35 points!

That's a full 25 more points than the 10 points he personally earned!

In other words, after eliminating him, Wen Miao quickly eliminated other candidates as well!

The surprise in Shang Tianqi's eyes was almost overflowing.

incredible!

That seemingly ordinary girl has actually come this far!
In addition, all of their scores were reset to zero.

Those who are eliminated can only leave behind a record high score.

This includes him, who was once considered a top prospect by the president of the Central Theological Seminary.

Good heavens, how did she do that!
Those naked monkeys from Flower Fruit Mountain alone managed to eliminate all the candidates in the entire examination hall except for Jiang Yu?!
Shang Tianqi's face was full of absurdity, and he stood there dumbfounded, as if petrified.

"Brother Shang, you're out."

At this moment, a candidate from the Central Theological Seminary walked up to Shang Tianqi, stepped aside to make way for him, and said with a complicated expression:
"Come and sit down. We've been given an exception by the examiners and can watch the competition this time."

Shang Tianqi nodded, sitting stiffly in the spectator area.

He no longer cared about the embarrassment of having his pants pulled down by a monkey in public.

At this moment, he was in a daze, and his mind was in a mess.

Everything that happened today was different from what he had imagined!
He had been preparing for this selection competition for a very long time.

For example, he hadn't had time to summon his strongest companion beast, nor had he had time to use his newly mastered divine skills, and he still had a lot of divine power left...

Most importantly, he didn't get to have a proper fight with Jiang Yu!
As a result, he was outmaneuvered by a group of monkeys who didn't follow the rules, and was eliminated in a daze!
He was so unwilling to accept it! If it weren't for Wen Miao and her bunch of monkeys, it would be a showdown between him and Jiang Yu right now!

Shang Tianqi gritted his teeth and involuntarily clenched his fists.

Noticing the frustration on Shang Tianqi's face, the examinee from the Central Theological Seminary comforted him:
"Brother Shang, don't be too disappointed. Even Dan Xue from the Nine Gods Joint School was eliminated by Wen Miaolian!"

"What did you say?!" Shang Tianqi looked up abruptly, pressing for an answer:
"How was she eliminated? Was she also driven crazy by those monkeys?"

"Uh...no, that's not it." The Central Theological Seminary student, still shaken by what he had just witnessed, sighed.
"It was Danxue who went to attack Wenmiao's stronghold, but ended up being stabbed to death by a piece of red cloth!"

Red cloth?!
Shang Tianqi was completely bewildered, even wondering if there was something wrong with his ears.

Can a piece of cloth kill snow?

But when did the snow become so weak?
She's one of the best students in the entire Nine Gods Alliance!

Shang Tianqi couldn't believe it was so outrageous and blurted out, "Are you kidding me?!"

"Brother Shang, you have no idea!" The examinees from the Central Theological Seminary shook their heads, clicking their tongues in amazement:

"That artifact that summons wondrous powers is too overpowered! It can actually fight independently of its master!"

"Moreover, that red cloth can change size and is extremely sturdy, yet even Xue's Golden Arrow couldn't pierce it. Its defense is truly amazing; I'm so envious!"

A military academy candidate nearby chimed in, adding:
"Wenmiao's stronghold was defended tightly by a piece of cloth and a gun! But Xue couldn't break through no matter what she did. In the end, she was killed by those two divine weapons with a single blow, and she was eliminated even before you!"

The candidates from the four schools gave very detailed and convincing accounts.

It seems... it really is true.

Shang Tianqi's Adam's apple bobbed, and he couldn't help but turn his head to look at Dan Xue, who was sitting in the front row of the spectator area.

She was staring intently at the monitor screen, her expression more serious and focused than ever before.

In an instant, Shang Tianqi actually felt that being defeated by a group of monkeys wasn't so shameful after all!

After all, everyone here is a loser.

Just then, a test taker pointed at the surveillance screen and exclaimed in surprise:
"Look! Wen Miao is about to meet Jiang Yu!"

Shang Tianqi and the others stopped talking at the same time, exchanged glances, and then looked at the surveillance screen in unison.

For a moment, the entire temple fell silent.

Whether they were arrogant scions of noble families or prodigies from seminaries, everyone held their breath at this moment.

Everyone is waiting.

Waiting for the last winner.

The same applies to the five examiners in the invigilation room.

All eyes were on the selection competition venue.

-

In the examination room.

Wen Miao opened the map, preparing to head to the last stronghold of the examination hall.

Suddenly, a tall and handsome young man came over the mountains and walked towards her.

The newcomer arrived with his sleeves billowing in the wind. After a fierce selection competition, his hair and clothes were perfectly in place, and his demeanor was indescribably composed.

It was Jiang Yu!

"Wen Miao, Wen Miao, the last stronghold really is yours."

Jiang Yu strode over, a smile playing on her lips, her eyes fixed on Wen Miao, full of amusement.

"I knew it, I would definitely have to compete against you in this exam."

Wen Miao was not surprised to see Jiang Yu.

"By the way, where did those monkeys behind you come from? Are they also from China?"

Jiang Yu raised an eyebrow curiously, reminding him, "There are quite a lot of them, but if you rely on just them, you probably can't beat me."

"Because I won't show any mercy."

After saying that, Jiang Yu suddenly exuded a strong divine power.
