At the front of the conference hall, on the big screen.

A message popped up.

[Certifier No. 15, Jiang Ye, has completed the power certification]

The employees of the Star Sea Conglomerate in the conference hall were extremely surprised.

"It's over already?"

"The whole process took less than fifteen minutes, Jiang Ye was so fast?"

"Is he an Original Talent? I've never seen such a powerful Original Talent!"

"Don't rush, could Jiang Ye have been defeated by the Replication Body?" The crowd was buzzing with discussions.

The system was still calculating the scores.

For now, no one knew whether Jiang Ye had succeeded or failed in the certification.

Did he finish the last level so quickly?

Most likely, he failed.

"Failed?" The short-haired female employee also watched the screen, and for some reason, a hint of nervousness appeared in her eyes.

Passing the Star Sea Divine Path certification with Original Talent is big news!

Did that little guy succeed?

"The total score for the three certifications is 300 points."

"Only by reaching over 250 points is it considered passing." The short-haired female employee murmured, "How many points will he get?"

Everyone, including Director Liu, fell silent, waiting for the system to refresh.

After ten seconds.

A new message popped up.

[Certifier No. 15, Jiang Ye, certification score: 261 points]

[Certification passed!]

[Star Sky Martial Arts (First Break): Jiang Ye, undergoing Star Sea Gift...]

Seeing this, the whole room fell silent for a second.

"Wow~"

The next moment, the entire conference hall was in an uproar.

"He passed!"

"261 points? That's 11 points above the standard line?"

"This Jiang Ye, an Original Talent, could score so high?" All the employees were extremely shocked.

Don't think 261 points is low.

You must know that the pass rate for the Star Sea Divine Path certification is less than 30%.

Even some with Tao Bone Talent have many instances of failure.

Newborn Talents fail even more often, with successful cases just barely passing.

Not to mention Original Talent!

Jiang Ye achieving this score was beyond many people's expectations!

"261 points?" Director Liu fell into thought, "This kid's Martial Arts Will certification must be full marks, and the second certification should be similar."

"So did he make a mistake during the third certification?"

The evaluation standards for certification scores have two main aspects.

One is time, the other is injury degree.

Jiang Ye's certification time, undoubtedly, was far ahead of others.

That can only mean he suffered considerable injuries.

Which deducted those 39 points.

"Interesting."

Curiosity appeared on Director Liu's face, "How exactly did this kid defeat the Replication Body? Did he have a Fighting Spirit after being injured?"

Normally, strength decreases after injury.

Facing a Replication Body stronger than oneself that doesn't fear pain, the victory odds are slim.

But Jiang Ye? Instead, he defeated the Replication Body so quickly.

"I'll just ask him when he comes out."

Director Liu thought to himself, then looked at the short-haired female employee next to him and said, "This Jiang Ye is worth recruiting, go and prepare."

"Yes." The female employee immediately responded and stood up, walked out of the conference hall.

...

What happened in the conference hall, Jiang Ye naturally didn't know.

At this moment, he stood on the arena, panting heavily.

"Finally..."

Jiang Ye looked at the Replication Body in front of him, which he had blasted apart with one punch, exhaling a heavy breath.

The Replication Body had been slain by him!

But the cost was—

Jiang Ye looked at his body.

On his chest, a few ghastly fist marks appeared, deeply sunken in.

Around the wounds, it swelled up high, bruised and purplish.

He could still feel the intense pain of bone fractures.

"Luckily, the injuries are not too severe." Jiang Ye breathed a sigh of relief.

Just now, in order to defeat the Replication Body, he deliberately exchanged injury for injury.

To trigger the effect of 'Finding Joy in Adversity.'

[Finding Joy in Adversity: In a painful state, all attributes receive a considerable boost (temporarily), the deeper the pain, the higher the boost.]

With the pain state bonus, combined with 'Hitting a Stone with an Egg', 'Gale Step', 'Grounded'.

Under multiple buff enhancements, finally slayed the Replication Body!

"It was really tough!"

"I didn't expect to be so hard to deal with." Jiang Ye shook his head incessantly.

And just as he lamented this, subtitles floated before him.

[Certifier Jiang Ye, you have completed all certifications.]

[Calculating score...]

[Your scores for the three certifications are: 100 points, 100 points, 61 points]

[Star Sea Divine Path First Break certification score: 261 points]

[Congratulations, you have passed the First Break power certification!]

——

"I passed!" Jiang Ye looked at the subtitles, exhaled a long breath.

The last stone in his heart fell.

Even though he defeated the Replication Body just now.

The final stage required trying to win without injury.

He wasn't sure if his injuries counted as severe.

Now it seems, his injuries were indeed not light, just shy of the qualifying line.

"Anyhow, I passed after all." Jiang Ye smiled, looking forward.

At this time the Cloud Road beneath his feet appeared again.

Becoming incomparably wide.

"Buzz!"

Suddenly, in the unfathomable starry sky, a golden light burst forth.

Shooting towards Jiang Ye.

From a distance, it's just a golden light.

But as it approached, Jiang Ye was shocked to see, it was an extremely magnificent golden Star River, coming towards him.

This golden Star River, its starlight resplendent, carrying an unparalleled life wave.

Like a waterfall, descending from above over Jiang Ye's head.

"Is this... the Star Sea Gift?"

Jiang Ye had a guess, and was eager with anticipation: "It's finally here."

What did he join the Star Sea Divine Path for?

Precisely for this moment!

The next moment, the golden Star River, like a baptism from above, poured down from his head.

"Boom!"

In an instant.

Jiang Ye's pores opened up.

Upon contact with the golden 'river water', all the cells in his body seemed like beasts starved for ages, crazily and greedily devouring.

"My body!?"

Almost immediately, Jiang Ye showed an expression of shock.

Under the wash of the golden Star River, he could feel his Life Strength rising rapidly!

"It's just as the director said."

"This Star Sea Gift can significantly boost my power within a short time?" Jiang Ye was incredibly delighted.

He needed to do nothing.

Just standing there, quietly waiting.

The golden Star River continuously drenched his body, making his meridians protrude and revealing golden patterns.

"The First Break in Martial Arts is through Star Energy Tempering of tendons and bones."

"But now? The intensity of all my tendons and bones is rapidly elevating!" Jiang Ye felt, becoming more and more astonished.

He had just entered the First Break.

Under the pour of the golden Star River, his Martial Arts Realm was naturally rising.

But this was secondary.

More crucially.

Jiang Ye sensed that the golden Star River was strengthening his Martial Arts foundation!

Making him feel a deepening sense of inner fortitude.

This was no illusion.

Because when Jiang Ye previously used the system, to enhance his physique, he had a similar feeling!

This golden Star River was indeed boosting his Martial Arts foundation!

"Hmm?"

At that moment, Jiang Ye's spirit suddenly tingled.

"My Guanyuan Acupoint?" He showed a look of surprise: "It actually changed shape?!"
