Chapter 394: Your Name (Part 2)

"Sixty-one?"

Seeing the number clearly, Master Su and Master Ling exchanged a glance, shook their heads simultaneously, and a trace of regret flashed across their faces.

They had thought this youth, who had set countless records, could break another one, but now it seemed they had overestimated him.

"Sixty-one is not a bad score, but compared to those true super geniuses, it's clearly still a bit weak..."

Master Su shook his head.

"Indeed!" Master Ling also nodded.

A trust level of sixty was similar to that for parents and close relatives. Exceeding that number, he was much stronger than Mo Hongyi before, but it clearly fell far short of their expectations.

"Does this count as passing?"

Unaware of their disappointment, Zhang Xuan looked at Hall Master Jiang not far away.

"Passing!" Hall Master Jiang nodded.

As long as it exceeded forty, it was considered qualified. Sixty-one was already very high compared to others.

Seeing the result, Mo Hongyi smiled bitterly.

His previous record had been completely crushed. He had thought he could turn the tables this time, but now it seemed he had been too naive.

Compared to the other, he, a genius, was still far behind.

"Wait, Teacher Liu, aren't your best students Mu Xueqing and Lu Chong? Who is this student? I've never seen him before."

Although he confirmed the pass, Hall Master Jiang was still a bit puzzled and couldn't help asking.

According to the information he had received, Zhang Xuan should have been taking more care of Mu Xueqing and Lu Chong, and their trust levels should be the highest.

Although this assessment could use any student, usually the one with the highest trust level would be sent. This student he had never even seen or heard of—why send him?

Could it be that he had secretly taken more care of this student, raising his trust level to sixty-one?

Hearing this, the others also looked over curiously, wanting to hear his explanation.

"You haven't seen him?"

Not expecting the question, Zhang Xuan scratched his head: "Well then, let me introduce you. This is..."

He stopped mid-sentence, looking embarrassed, and quickly turned to the student who had just walked out of the trust room: "Um, sorry, I've been teaching you for several days now, but I still don't know your name. May I ask what your name is..."

Thump! Thump!

As soon as he finished, a series of falling sounds were heard. Everyone felt dizzy, almost fainting.

Even Master Su and Master Ling, who had just been shaking their heads, felt their mouths twitching uncontrollably.

Are you kidding me?

A student with a trust level of sixty-one toward you, and you... don't even know his name?

Others, to gain a student's trust, treat them like friends and use every means to quickly earn their goodwill. But you... after teaching for so many days, you don't even know his name...

Most importantly, the other party has no complaints and still has a trust level of sixty-one, comparable to parents...

Damn!

Everyone looked at the student in unison. This teacher doesn't even know your name, yet your trust level reaches sixty-one, and you don't hesitate to mobilize your family to confront the Lin family head-on for him... What are you after?

"Reporting to teacher, student Ji Yi. Teacher once guided me, solving the problem of blocked meridians on the left side of my body..." Hearing the teacher's question, the youth said excitedly, nodding quickly.

"Ji Yi?" Zhang Xuan scratched his head.

He really hadn't heard that name. However, solving the problem of blocked meridians on the left side of the body did ring a bell. It was on the first day he entered the academy, through the library, that he noticed the student's physical issue.

Half of his body's meridians were blocked; continuing to cultivate could lead to hemiplegia. He gave timely guidance.

The kid was also very promising, breaking through two minor levels on the spot, earning envy from many.

Now that he thought about it, it seemed the library had displayed the name, and it was indeed Ji Yi. But at the time, he had guided too many people, and nothing stood out, so he forgot.

With three identities (Liu Cheng, Zhang Xuan, Yang Xuan) keeping him busy, he couldn't even eat properly, let alone remember so many students' names.

Remembering Lu Chong, Mu Xueqing, and Meng Tao was already good enough.

"Alright, let me introduce you. This is Ji Yi, he is... my student!"

Having learned the name, Zhang Xuan didn't intend to dwell on it and introduced him solemnly to Hall Master Jiang.

"..." Jiang Shu.

"..." Everyone.

We all heard the conversation; what's the point of introducing him again?

Most importantly, you only said a name, and judging by your confused expression, you clearly don't know his family, background, age... anything!

It's as good as saying nothing. Better not to introduce him, so we can suffer less...

Mo Hongyi on the side was in tears.

What kind of situation is this?

To quickly raise the trust levels of his two students, he had almost treated them like ancestors, asking about their well-being every day, personally guiding their cultivation, unable to sleep at night for fear of making a mistake...

And yet, those two guys only had a trust level of forty-two toward him. But you, you don't even recognize your student, can't remember his name, and still reach sixty-one...

Fuck! Why is there such a big difference between people?

He turned to look at his two students. If he hadn't looked, he might have been fine, but upon seeing them, he nearly collapsed.

The two were staring longingly at 'Teacher Liu,' clearly eager to become his students, full of envy toward Mu Xueqing and the others.

You two, enough! Behave yourselves, don't give me that look, okay?

Haven't you seen a teacher before? Besides, I, Mo Hongyi, the number one genius of Tianwu Kingdom, am not weak at all, okay?

His vision darkened, and Mo Hongyi finally realized how foolish a decision it was to take the Two-Star Master Teacher assessment with him.

"He's just a freak..."

Mo Yu also spat.

If not for seeing it with her own eyes, others might think Zhang Xuan was faking it—impossible to have a trust level of sixty-one without knowing the student's name. But she knew it was absolutely true.

This guy was sometimes so shrewd it was frightening, and other times so clueless it was frustrating.

Not to mention students, even she, the number one beauty of Tianwu Kingdom, if not for accompanying him to find the Great Medicine King, might have had her name forgotten too.

Just thinking about it was depressing.

"We know your student's name now, but... can we test Lu Chong's trust level?"

Suppressing his frustration, Hall Master Jiang couldn't help asking.

A student whose name he didn't even know had a trust level of sixty-one. What about Lu Chong?

For him, you even took on the Lin family single-handedly!

Zhang Xuan was taken aback: "Well..."

"Teacher, the student is willing to try!"

Before he could finish, Lu Chong stepped forward.

He also wanted to see how high his trust with the teacher was.

"Alright, be careful!"

Seeing everyone's eyes on him, knowing he couldn't refuse, Zhang Xuan shook his head helplessly.

He had only wanted to pass the assessment, but they insisted on pushing him...

Sigh, why is it so hard to keep a low profile?

If Mo Hongyi knew this thought, he would surely spit blood.

Brother, I want to keep a high profile, but I just can't...

With permission, Lu Chong happily walked into the trust room.

Buzz!

The trust room activated, light flickering.

"Will this student's trust level be higher than that one's?"

Watching this, Master Su was a bit curious and couldn't help sending a voice transmission.

He had just arrived at Tianwu Kingdom and came straight here, so he hadn't heard about Zhang Xuan and Lu Chong's story, naturally unaware that their relationship was much deeper than with Ji Yi.

"Master Su, just watch!" Hall Master Jiang smiled lightly.

Although he wasn't sure what Lu Chong's trust level was, he still remembered what had happened earlier.

To avenge a student, he didn't even fear the Lin family. If the trust level wasn't high in such a situation, he would think he was crazy.

"Hmm!" Exchanging a glance, Master Su and Master Ling knew that Hall Master Jiang had his reasons for saying so, and couldn't help looking over.

The others also wanted to see how high it would be. The entire hall fell silent, all eyes focused.

Buzz!

After a while, the trust room began to shake, and amid a soft hum, a line of numbers slowly appeared.

Seeing the number, everyone was dumbfounded, frozen in place as if seeing a ghost.

Even Master Su and Master Ling's lips trembled, their eyes nearly falling out, and they couldn't help exclaiming.

"Ninety... nine? A trust level of ninety-nine? This is..."

"Perfect trust, life and death entrusted?"
