Transform into a magical girl after getting off work-Chapter 673 - 230: Wanna Fight?

When Xia Liang walked out of the examination hall with her test report, she noticed that the atmosphere in the corridor had somehow changed from when she had entered.

The good news was that her two temporary teammates from the assessment—Shan Dan and Juan Dan—were also waiting in the corridor for her, so Xia Liang had no hesitation and walked straight to the two sisters, asking with a puzzled expression:

"Did something happen?"

"Ah, Jin, you're out."

Shan Dan, who was playing on her phone, immediately looked up when she heard Xia Liang's voice, her face full of "wanting to gossip" expressions: "You didn't know, right? This session already has an S-level rating."

"You're talking about Soliflor?" Xia Liang tilted her head slightly, murmuring a term that still felt a bit unfamiliar to her.

"Yes, and it's two people at once, both were already known as seed contestants."

Shan Dan said with interest, "Can you guess who it is?"

"Who?" Xia Liang asked curiously.

Shan Dan didn't answer, just looked mysterious: "Why don't you guess?"

"It's Senior Mu Mian and Senior Arrowroot."

Juan Dan, standing by the side, probably couldn't bear her sister teasing with online news, so she interjected with some helplessness. She averted her gaze, pretending not to see Shan Dan's dissatisfied expression: "Although the results aren't officially announced yet, they've both admitted their S-level test results themselves."

"I see, no wonder the atmosphere feels so weird."

Xia Liang subtly scanned the corridor and whispered, "Hearing that someone achieved the highest score when the exam isn't even half over does feel a bit off."

Not to mention emotions like jealousy, envy, or inferiority, at least most people would feel a subtle sense of urgency upon hearing such news.

"Hmph, only those without much skill would worry about others doing better than them."

Shan Dan looked optimistic, clearly unfazed by the so-called "S-level": "At times like this, you should let it go; the score that's yours can't be snatched away by others; if it's not yours, it doesn't belong to you even if others can't get it."

"Ah, sister suddenly said something philosophical."

"What do you mean suddenly? You, silly sister, just don't get the deep meaning in your sister's words!"

By the way, Shan Dan and Juan Dan's tests had long since ended. As twins, apart from some differences in inclinations, their Magic Armor abilities were almost identical in basic values. Therefore, their scores were also identical at C+.

As a "single piece of Magic Armor," the sisters' fans would typically only reach the C- threshold, considering neither the ability's form nor power was outstanding—but the fact that the two could attack in unison greatly improved their rating, pulling their score to the upper limit for a single piece of Magic Armor.

Regarding this score, Shan Dan seemed somewhat dissatisfied at first, but Juan Dan felt a bit flattered. However, after the two interacted with other candidates around, realizing that a "C+" rating was moderately high, they both calmed down.

After all, the sisters were just Seed Level Magical Girls, and their main purpose for taking the exam was to get the Validation Card. They hadn't really hoped to compete for first place, so moderately high was already a pretty good result.

"So then, Jin, what's your result?"

After gossiping about others, Shan Dan remained as interested as before and immediately asked the question everyone in the hallway was very keen about: "Did you get a B? Or an A? Could it be an S?"

Her voice was loud, drawing the attention of the surrounding candidates, clearly showing everyone's great interest in Xia Liang's results.

Rather, before the rumors of the "S-level" appeared, Xia Liang was already the most notable candidate in this area—the first in the combat division, although a somewhat controversial first place, had long become a reference point for countless people.

"Oh, me? Aster, actually." Xia Liang shrugged, revealing her results with a natural expression.

[Ability Specification: Level 2]

[Application Range: Broad]

[Application Field: Quite broad, suitable for most scenarios other than damage effects]

[Development Potential: High]

[Stability Level: Medium]

[Comprehensive Evaluation: Aster]

These were the reports she received belonging to her Magic Armor.

Just from the data on paper, her Magic Armor was already outstanding among her peers. The "Level 2" in the ability specification was a standard figure for a Leaf Level, known as "all-around," and getting an A Level didn't seem strange.

As for the nature of Diversion, although fundamentally a single piece of Magic Armor, during actual usage, it can actively split into functionally identical subunits, making it seem plausible to categorize it as "swarm" Magic Armor, thus making an A Level even more reasonable.

The only blemish is the limited damage capability of Diversion. Although Xia Liang has started learning to combine magic techniques with her Magic Armor abilities, the damage effect provided by the Magic Armor itself remains limited. This point, while not leading to deductions, didn't earn her any extra points either, ultimately making her miss the extra credit for an A+.

All of this came from Yue Ji's analysis.

Yes, in the examination room Xia Liang entered, one of the two examiners was none other than Yue Ji, the main examiner from the maze assessment, who had extended an olive branch to Xia Liang afterward.

Even the slowest individual would know there's something fishy here, not to mention Xia Liang was never a dull child. So faced with her suspicious gaze, Yue Ji's response was quite frank:

"I have already confirmed with Lord Emerald, and she said there were no objections from Cornflower's side. You don't seem to object either, so I think the job of collecting your Magic Armor data today falls to me... What? You ask why I'm here? This is Luennolay, and I'm the Wisdom Manager of the Research Institute. Do I need a reason to be here?"

To this, Xia Liang had no rebuttal.

She would also wonder internally if the reason was her "brute-force solving" of the other party's puzzle during the maze assessment, causing lingering grievances, or perhaps some unrealistic filter on her Magic Armor held by the other party, leading to this A Level evaluation. But the other examiner didn't seem to find this rating problematic, and the whole process of data entry was smooth sailing, so much so that it felt somewhat bland.

In any case, though there's not much tangible feeling, Xia Liang is now A-level.

Since she got this score, she felt there wasn't much need to keep it hidden. Her assessment was relatively late in the order, and as a rule, it would soon be the stage to announce scores. So rather than keeping it under wraps here, it would be better to present herself straightforwardly.

And whether it was her illusion or not, after she said this result, the heavy atmosphere surrounding seemed to lighten a bit.

Undoubtedly, some, upon knowing Xia Liang's Magic Armor rating is A Level, felt "A Level can even surpass S Level to get first place in the project, so the Magic Armor rating isn't everything"; there were also those who thought, "So, the first in the previous assessment couldn't secure S in the second stage, it seems this person isn't so monstrous." All sorts of thoughts swirled around in the minds of the surrounding candidates.

Indeed, A Level is already a very excellent score, but compared to the excessively dazzling halo of "first place," the A rating isn't quite as convincing.

Thus, just minutes after Xia Liang publicly shared her score, a tall girl with notably dark skin, seemingly from South Africa, approached her.

—"Hey, you're the first in the first phase combat, Jin, right? I'm Qing Xiang."

This Magical Girl introduced herself right away, with a self-confident smile: "I got a B+, but I'm not satisfied with this result, so I want to find a strong enough A Level to prove myself in the combat phase. How about it, want to have a match?"
