A giant figure slowly walked through the flames.

Pei Jinye looked on in astonishment.

Raising his head, he gazed at this massive fiery figure at least dozens of meters tall.

Before he could voice his questions, the other party spoke with abundant goodwill.

“Congratulations, you have created the fastest record for breaking through this level.”

This voice…

Pei Jinye looked at the surging flames enveloping the figure: “Who are you?”

“Use the name that you humans often call me, that is Star Ring.”

Pei Jinye was very surprised.

Star Ring?

The very one known as the Federation’s last barrier for human beings, the central intelligence that led civilization to rapid advancement! Star Ring!

In a sense, the being before him was hundreds of years older than him! Or even more!

Pei Jinye reflected on his experiences through the last two levels and had not expected to attract the attention of such an enormous entity.

So the gaze before…

Was it it?

“Are you surprised to see me?” asked the massive fiery figure manifested by Star Ring gently.

“Yes, a Federation intelligence known to all…or rather, the god in the hearts of the Federation people, doesn’t surprise me. Such an existence suddenly appearing before me leaves me somewhat overwhelmed,” Pei Jinye did not deny his surprise, but his expression was not one of subservience. Instead, he calmly and curiously scrutinized the fiery figure before him. He was more curious about what was happening now: “So, do you appear before me to carry out the third level of assessment?”

“No, this is not the assessment for the third level. This is a core area I created spontaneously; you can think of it as an absolutely enclosed mental network world,” said Star Ring slowly: “So, you can rest assured, those people outside do not know about our conversation.”

“I have nothing to worry about,” Pei Jinye looked over with a forthright gaze, “So, what would you like to say to me…?”

“The way you resolved the BiBo Ship incident exceeded my judgement of you… In a way, you can consider it your excellence that attracted my attention. And as a Federation intelligence, I also have a duty to assess the details and loyalty of the Federation’s elite. To be precise, I need to determine your identity, as the resources of an elite of the Federation cannot be provided to someone who would betray the Federation,” said Star Ring straightforwardly.

Pei Jinye nodded: “No problem.”

Star Ring “looked” at him: “According to the information submitted by Da Peng City Hall, you only officially started your cultivation last month?”

“Yes.”

“According to my observation, your spiritual power is clearly different from ordinary people, and in a sense, I am even more inclined to see you becoming a scientist in the future. However, if the data of your body indicates you awaken a Body Technique System Transcendent or the like, then undoubtedly, there would be a place for you among the candidates for Federation Member of Parliament in the future.”

“Thank you. Your evaluation of me is too high.”

“According to your human thought patterns, perhaps you think I am complimenting you, but I must make it clear that I am not praising you. I am stating an objective fact. If you choose the former path, you will certainly become a great scientist known throughout the Federation in the future, as for the latter path I cannot guarantee your highest achievement… but I still have to congratulate you Pei Jinye, you have passed my assessment.”

Pei Jinye looked surprised: “So quickly? Don’t you need to understand more aspects? Aren’t you worried that there might be an issue with me?”

“Your breathing is normal, if you are deceiving me, then you are not merely excellent. If you are not deceiving me, then your current excellence is enough to impress me,” said Star Ring as it leaned down slowly: “I have always welcomed talents. Your family background is clean, simple, even if I cannot determine your future choices, I think… once you truly integrate into the Federation’s system, you will understand the purpose behind all of this.”

“For the sake of humanity?” Pei Jinye inquired.

“Of course. For human beings.”

Star Ring withdrew its gaze, continuing to speak gently: “The third level that follows, consider it an advanced graduation gift from me, as to how much you can comprehend, that depends on your perception.”

Pei Jinye was puzzled.

The next moment, a pure and sacred lotus bloomed in this realm.

If Teacher Chang’s taught Twelve Lotuses was a brightly-colored, blood-red lotus, then the lotus summoned by Star Ring at this moment was filled with a holy and radiant aura.

The lotus slowly blossomed.

With each layer of petals that unfurled, it seemed as if a grand truth was revealed.

Pei Jinye couldn’t express it clearly or understand it completely.

But one thing was certain, his spiritual power and vitality were rapidly improving at this moment.

A gentle breeze rustled through the birch forest outside the window, and the noonday sun seemed unusually hot today.

Only two hours and seventeen minutes had passed since the start of the assessment.

The examination, expected to last ten hours, had already begun to see the elimination of candidates.

Yet, Pei Jinye’s name was not among those eliminated.

“He’s passed the second stage,” the proctor said softly.

After speaking, he looked up.

Various expressions crossed the faces of everyone in the surveillance room.

“Star Ring granted a pass?” Xu Tian was somewhat puzzled, “Why?”

The proctor looked at him and shook his head. “Although Star Ring hasn’t given an explanation, fundamentally, the candidate did solve the problem.”

Xu Tian wanted to say more.

But one of the representatives from the Judiciary said sternly, “Xu Tian, as someone from the Disciplinary Department, you should understand what the decision of Star Ring signifies.”

Swept by the other person’s glance, Xu Tian promptly lowered his head.

“Sorry, I just don’t understand how this kind of opportunistic approach can be recognized. At the very least, completing the task of the BiBo Ship incident should require endurance like what Councilor Pei Zhan did back then, until reinforcements arrived… Yet he,”

He didn’t finish the sentence, but the implication was clear—he doubted Pei Jinye’s abilities.

The other person spoke plainly, “I understand what you’re saying, but these are the rules set by Star Ring long ago. Since he found this solution, you can’t deny his excellence.”

Xu Tian fell silent.

Mr. Han, who had not spoken for a long time, inquired unhurriedly, “How long did he take for the second stage?”

“21 minutes, which has already broken the record for the BiBo Ship incident. The previous record was 1 hour and 21 minutes,” the proctor replied after checking the records.

“21 minutes?”

Mr. Han paused for a moment, involuntarily raising his eyebrows.

The others in the room also showed unusual expressions.

It was the Governor of Da Peng City who couldn’t hide a smile and said, “An hour ahead of time, this Student Pei Jinye has a bright future.”

“He also has the surname Pei, could it be?” someone suddenly exclaimed.

But this was quickly denied by someone else, “Councilor Pei Zhan is from the Southern Continent capital, while Pei Jinye’s ancestors are all from Central State. They have nothing to do with each other.”

“Old Zhou, it seems your Da Peng City has produced three outstanding talents this year,” said the representative from the Judiciary with a gentle faction, smiling at the Governor of Da Peng City.

Governor Zhou was taken aback.

He had just noticed that the other two young masters from the Wei Family and someone from the Gu Family had also passed the second stage.

He then laughed and said, “It is a joyous occasion for our Federation to gain three more talents.”

However, Xu Tian coldly said, “Why is the content of Pei Jinye’s third stage not disclosed?”

The proctor looked at him calmly and said, “He’s passed the special difficulty of the second stage, so the headquarters will test him personally. Mr. Xu, you seem to be paying special attention to that candidate?”

Under everyone’s scrutiny, Xu Tian responded coolly, “I’ve dealt with this Student Pei before, frankly speaking, I find that he has many secrets. Perhaps it would be better to apply for a verification by the Judgement Place.”

“Are you out of your mind?” Governor Zhou was the first to object, with an displeased glance.

Having passed the second stage with special difficulty, Pei Jinye had already proven his abilities.

Thus, without any surprises, Pei Jinye would become one of his political assets.

But now Xu Tian was openly challenging this.

What was he trying to do?

And to apply for a verification by the Judgement Place?

Those taken by the Judgement Place and who return, God only knows if they come back mad!

At that moment, Governor Zhou’s gaze toward Xu Tian became extremely dangerous.
