Whoosh.
A faint stream of starlight rose from the surface of the Aptitude Measuring Orb. The light drifted upward and slowly gathered in the air above.
It condensed into a single star phantom.
For a brief moment, the entire hall froze.
"What?"
"One star?"
"Li Yun only has one-star Aptitude? That is impossible!"
An uproar erupted instantly. The Martial Battle Hall, which had been tense with anticipation, exploded with deafening exclamations.
The New Talent King, who had defeated Ye Beichen, a sixth level Xiantian Realm cultivator, while standing at the first level himself, had been measured at only one-star Aptitude.
The shock was overwhelming. Faces were filled with disbelief. Eyes widened in confusion. The impact of that single star was no less than a thunderclap striking directly overhead.
"One-star Aptitude…"
Li Yun stared at the lone star phantom suspended above him and forced a bitter smile.
The outcome he had feared had indeed occurred.
