The Unveiling of Secret Queen

Chapter 1894: Chapter 1894: Face Slap, Nathalie in the Top 10!

Sadam Vinson’s eye twitched as he looked at her with a complex expression: ”Nathalie, this is the First Research Institute’s exam, you... could you show a bit more concern? Otherwise, I’ll be quite disheartened.”

She was making the entrance exam of the First Research Institute feel like a high school monthly test, and Sadam was really hit hard.

Alfred Garland was similarly struck.

Brian Bonette felt a bit better, but still, his eyelids twitched twice and the look he gave the girl was already filled with admiration.

He had just thought Nathalie was joking when she said she’d be number one, but when the list of 30-40 came out without Nathalie’s name, he realized she was quite serious in answering his question and wasn’t joking at all.

Number 1...

And handed it in early.

Topping the First Research Institute’s first round of the recruitment exam...

Brian couldn’t imagine the reactions of various forces upon seeing these results.

Nathalie seriously contemplated how to appear a bit ’concerned,’ while Amadeus Yancey reached over to button her coat, wrapping her snugly in it, lowered his gaze, and said softly, ”Ignore him.”

His breath was close.

Very ambiguous.

Nathalie uttered a sound of agreement and did not speak further.

The list for 20-30 came out shortly.

Everyone was checking if Nathalie’s name was on it.

It wasn’t.

Just like before, Nathalie’s name was still absent from the list.

Then came the list for 10-20, similarly empty of her name.

After 10-20 passed, it was the top ten list.

If one gets into the top 10 in the first round, even the Institute will pay attention to these individuals.

The top ten list did not lag and was quickly refreshed.

However, it was just a list without ranking.

The names refreshed on the rolling screen were collectively referred to as the first batch.

”What’s going on?” Sadam was the first to notice that the refreshed list on the rolling screen had no ranking or scores, pointing to the screen, he was asking.

A man’s lazy voice replied: ”The top ten of the First Research Institute’s exam are called the first batch. They won’t release the results immediately; it will take ten minutes for them to verify again before the ranking is released, so let’s wait...”

”Amadeus, why are you...” Sadam stopped halfway, remembering Nathalie’s miraculous acts and looking at Amadeus, he decided not to ask: ”Forget it, I won’t ask.”

He initially wanted to ask Amadeus how he understood the rules of the Institute’s exam, but then decided he didn’t want to know.

Nathalie’s name was third on the list.

There were two names before hers.

But Amadeus said this wasn’t the final ranking; it was just a preliminary batch, and order didn’t matter.

Alfred took out his phone, snapped a photo of the rolling screen, and sent it to the group.

Recently, he’d been in Inderia with Amadeus, interacting more with the Yandor Sect people, frequently contacting Vincent Moore, Zed Moore, and several key connections of Amadeus in Inderia. They had secretly created a group for easier communication.

Alfred @everyone: [image].jdp

There was no chatter in the group until he suddenly mentioned everyone and smugly tossed an image without saying anything.

Others who saw their phone opened the image.

The glance showed them the names on the rolling screen; the First Research Institute’s first batch ranking of the first round exam, Nathalie’s name was prominently among them.

After Alfred posted the image in the group, he quietly put his phone on silent mode and tucked it back into his pocket.

He totally ignored the group messages mentioning him and asking about the situation.
