**Chapter 28: The Dark Horse Emerges!**
Fang Ye was quite satisfied with the power of his *Flame* ability.
“It looks like I’ll have to participate in more places like Forbidden Zone No. 2 in the future. I can use all the attribute points I earn to boost my mental power.”
Mental power was the one weak spot in Saitama’s physique.
But with the existence of the forbidden zones, that weakness could easily be overcome!
Having received all his rewards, it was time to leave this place and return to the real world.
To Fang Ye’s left, there was a dimensional exit. He walked toward it…
…
At the entrance to Forbidden Zone No. 2, Wushen Academy’s instructor, Wang Liang, was beaming with pride.
This time, Wushen Academy had three students who achieved a red-level evaluation, all of whom earned valuable rewards, greatly boosting their strength.
Not only that—
Wushen Academy also had the highest survival rate among all the schools!
Of the 144 students they brought, 139 had returned safely, with only five unfortunate casualties, giving them a survival rate of 97%!
This achievement was something Wang Liang could be proud of.
After all, Forbidden Zone No. 2 wasn’t a playground! It was a fairly dangerous place for newcomers.
Death was a common occurrence.
Other schools considered an 80% survival rate to be very good.
Some, less fortunate, had lost almost half of their students!
For instance, Blue Wing Academy had brought 166 students, but only 79 made it out alive…
When the Blue Wing Academy teacher saw the result, he fainted on the spot.
Losing that many students at once was bound to bring trouble with the education department, and every teacher involved with the freshmen would face serious consequences!
…
“Man, Blue Wing Academy really had it rough.”
“Yeah! With losses like that, their headmaster might have to resign!”
“Once again, Wushen Academy comes out on top.”
“They win every time—it’s frustrating!”
“There’s not much we can do. Their headmaster has strong connections, and they get the best students from across the country. Every one of them has successfully bonded with a hero’s abilities, so of course, their survival rate is higher!”
“But the real dark horse this time has to be Wusheng Academy. Who would’ve thought that a school usually at the bottom would have multiple students with good evaluations, and even produce a student with a red rating…”
“There’s only a few minutes left, right? Maybe no more students will come out?”
“Let’s wait a little longer—just in case.”
“Old Li, how many students are still inside?”
“About twenty… And one of them is the son of a city official from our region.”
“What? That doesn’t sound good…”
At this moment, several teachers were gathered, quietly chatting among themselves. When they mentioned Wusheng Academy, Wang Liang’s previously glowing face took on a darker expression.
Wusheng Academy’s performance this time was truly unexpected.
Especially the student named Su Ziqiu.
Her future potential seemed limitless.
Typically, students who received high evaluations in Forbidden Zone No. 2 went on to achieve great things.
After all, a high evaluation meant better rewards!
A red evaluation alone came with 80 free attribute points.
If they allocated them all to strength, they could instantly become superhumanly powerful!
With that kind of strength, their chances of success in the next forbidden zone would only increase.
This created a positive feedback loop…
On the other hand, students who started off with poor evaluations often struggled to keep up and got trapped in a vicious cycle, making future forbidden zone challenges even more dangerous.
So, students who achieved red-level evaluations in Forbidden Zone No. 2 were often referred to as “strong contenders.”
Thinking about the beautiful girl he’d just seen, Wang Liang’s expression turned thoughtful.
He realized—
Maybe he could report this to his school and have someone reach out to recruit her…
Poaching students wasn’t uncommon among academies.
If he could take that student from Wusheng Academy, Instructor Yan might never recover!
The more Wang Liang thought about it, the more tempting the idea became…
He turned and scanned the rest area, easily spotting Su Ziqiu.
Her beauty and pure, ethereal aura made her stand out effortlessly, naturally drawing attention.
But—
At this moment, Su Ziqiu was staring intently at the entrance to Forbidden Zone No. 2, her mind clearly elsewhere…
Just then—
There was a sudden commotion.
“Someone’s coming out!”
“What’s going on? Why is their task evaluation gold?”
“Gold? What kind of evaluation is that?”
“Wait, I remember now! The highest task rating is said to be gold…”
