At this moment, above the Qi Testing Stele standing in the center of the Talent Hall, five blood-red characters appeared, radiating dazzling divine light.

"Sixteen Seas of Qi."

"Heavens! Am I dreaming, or is there something wrong with the Testing Stele? Ye Chen actually tested with sixteen Seas of Qi." Immediately, exclamations filled the Talent Hall, drawing everyone's gaze to the five characters on the Testing Stele, hardly daring to believe their eyes.

Some even pinched their cheeks hard, wanting to see if they were dreaming.

Hiss!

However, in the next moment, they found their cheeks stinging painfully.

This indicated they weren't dreaming.

Everything before their eyes was actually real.

"Sixteen Seas of Qi, no, this can't be possible. It's definitely the Testing Stele that's broken, or maybe Ye Chen, that wastrel, is cheating. Otherwise, how could he possibly test for so many Seas of Qi?" On the high platform, Ye Kun's entire face turned the color of a pig's liver as if he had eaten a huge heap of dead flies.

He really couldn't accept the reality before him.

"If this is true, doesn't that mean Ye Chen has a fourfold Qi Sea Foundation?" The high-ranking members of the Ye, Xiao, and Luo Families were also stunned, looking utterly shocked.

It should be known that Ye Chen's cultivation was clearly only at the Fourth Layer of the True Qi Realm.

However, he tested for sixteen Seas of Qi.

This means that every time he advances a realm, he can open four Seas of Qi, four times that of an ordinary cultivator.

This is unprecedented in the history of Kunzhou Prefecture.

In fact, let alone a fourfold Qi Sea Foundation, even those with a threefold Qi Sea Foundation have never appeared in Kunzhou Prefecture's history.

And now, Ye Chen, this wastrel in the eyes of the world, has actually succeeded in doing so.

How could this not leave everyone feeling helpless?

"Ye Chen defied the heavens to such an extent, but we've always thought of him as a wastrel who couldn't even open a Sea of Qi due to a shattered dantian. This is truly ironic!" Many of the strong in Kunzhou Prefecture felt their cheeks burn, as if they had been slapped hard in public.

At this moment, they realized that the truly laughable person was not Ye Chen, but them, who thought so highly of themselves.

Among them, those who could have a twofold Qi Sea Foundation were very few, yet they had always mocked a prodigy with a fourfold Qi Sea Foundation.

This made them feel utterly ashamed.

"How can this be? Ye Chen's Qi Sea Foundation is actually twice mine." In a corner of the Talent Hall, the cold pride on Xiao Lan's face had completely disappeared, replaced by deep shock and humiliation.

Over the years, the Xiao Family had spent a huge price to purchase a batch of Qi Sea Pills refined from Demon Beast Cores from the Celestial Pill Pavilion to cultivate her.

It was because of this that she had a twofold Qi Sea Foundation.

She originally thought she would shine in the entrance examination and outshine her peers.

But now, Ye Chen, who she always saw as a wastrel, tested with a fourfold Qi Sea Foundation, firmly stepping over her.

To her, this was nothing short of a terrible nightmare.

She really wished all of this was false.

However, the five blinding characters on the Qi Testing Stele told her that this was an undeniable fact.

"Damn it! Master Liu, I suspect that the Qi Testing Stele has been tampered with. It's absolutely impossible for this wastrel to have a fourfold Qi Sea Foundation." On the high platform, Duanmu Jie's face turned incredibly grim, shouting at Liu Xin without regard for his image.

"Master Liu, I also agree with Senior Brother Duanmu. Please verify the Qi Testing Stele in person to see if it's faulty. If it's not, then Ye Chen, that wastrel, must have cheated." Ye Lin'Er had already stood up, her face covered with frost, unwilling to believe Ye Chen's test results.

"Hmm! If I find out that Ye Chen has cheated, I will definitely not spare him. To dare cheat in our Celestial Flame Academy's entrance examination, that is a capital offense, and no one can save him." Liu Xin said coldly, and with a flash, she flew towards the Qi Testing Stele in the center of the Talent Hall.

In fact, even she didn't believe these were Ye Chen's true results.

After all, in the entire Celestial Flame Dynasty, those with a fourfold Qi Sea Foundation have been as rare as a phoenix's feather.

How could a prodigy like that emerge from a small place like Kunzhou Prefecture!

Therefore, there was a very high likelihood that Ye Chen had cheated.

If Liu Xin found out, she would definitely execute him on the spot; otherwise, where would the Celestial Flame Academy's dignity be?

"Liu Xin, I'll go verify it too." At this time, Ouyang Xue, dressed in a scarlet dress, also moved swiftly, flying like a Spiritual Bird towards the Qi Testing Stele, and soon descended in front of Ye Chen.

She actually hoped that Ye Chen's test results were real.

If so, their War King Hall could recruit an incredible talent.

Although Ye Chen hadn't awakened any bloodline.

However, his Qi Sea Foundation and Martial Arts Talent were far stronger than many seed students, definitely of high cultivation value.

"Could Ye Chen really have cheated?"

"Who knows? He's always been bold, even trying to defile Ye Lin'Er, what wouldn't he dare to do?" mocked a young participant in the assessment, filled with doubt about Ye Chen's results.

"Hmph! If he really dared cheat, no one can save him today."

"Such scum, dead is dead, no one would sympathize with him." Other young participants also chimed in, hoping Ye Chen's results were fake.

Otherwise, what face would they have, being those who didn't even achieve a twofold Qi Sea Foundation?

"Ye Chen, stand here, if you try to escape, I'll kill you at once." Liu Xin said coldly to Ye Chen, even with a murderous intent rising in her.

"I didn't cheat, why would I run?" Ye Chen frowned slightly, burning with anger inside.

He clearly had no enmity with Liu Xin, yet she repeatedly made things difficult for him.

If his strength were sufficient, he would have made her pay already.

Unfortunately, at the moment, he could only endure.

As long as his results were real, Liu Xin wouldn't be able to find a way to target him.

"Hmph! Whether or not you cheated is not for you to say, I'll know after I verify it." Liu Xin sneered, with a sudden flow of Gang Qi from her palm, enveloping the Testing Stele.

"Ye Chen, rest assured, if you did not cheat, I will uphold justice for you." Ouyang Xue said coolly to Ye Chen, beginning to inspect the Testing Stele as well.

"No, this can't be? There's no problem with the Testing Stele at all." Moments later, Liu Xin's pupils contracted sharply, her face turning extremely unsightly.

"Liu Xin, you said that Celestial Flame Peak wouldn't accept Ye Chen. From now on, he's a student of our War King Hall." A faint smile of joy appeared on Ouyang Xue's previously icy face, breathtakingly beautiful.

After her and Liu Xin's inspection, the Testing Stele was found to have no issues.

This meant that Ye Chen hadn't cheated; his results were genuine.

And a genius with a fourfold Qi Sea Foundation was certainly the kind of talent greatly desired by all factions of the Celestial Flame Academy.

But Liu Xin just claimed that Celestial Flame Peak wouldn't accept a mediocre like Ye Chen.

So naturally, Ouyang Xue wouldn't miss this opportunity.

"Really? That wastrel actually has a fourfold Qi Sea Foundation, how can that be?" On the high platform, Duanmu Jie's entire body went stiff, his facial features twisted together, looking particularly terrifying.

As for Ye Lin'Er, she looked as if she had swallowed a pile of dead flies, her face turning even paler than a corpse.
