Rexton and the others’ mouths were slightly agape.

Mutated talent?

Although they did not know what it was, it sounded very powerful!

No wonder Lugh was so powerful. It turned out that he had mutated talent.

Vivienne’s eyes were also filled with surprise, but there was also a hint of sadness in them.

Thirteen had extremely powerful combat strength, a perfect body, and appearance, he treated people well, and now he had mutated talent.

He really wasn’t from the same world as her.

She wouldn’t have the chance to get close to the thirteenth young master’s heart.

After chatting for a while, a relatively young test teacher walked out and said in a deep voice, “Today’s test ends here. We’ll continue tomorrow. The test will last for a total of seven days. After seven days, the students who pass the test will come here again.”

After saying this, he ignored the examinees’ reactions and directly left.

There were at least a hundred thousand students who had come to participate in the test. Of course, it was impossible for them to finish the test in one day. They had to split the test into seven days.

Those students who had yet to take the test complained one after another.

After waiting for a day, their legs were about to break. Now, they actually wouldn’t take the test and had to wait for tomorrow.

Of course, they felt extremely unhappy in their hearts. However, they could only suppress it. They didn’t have the courage to contradict the teachers of the Rune Academy.

As for those examinees who had passed the test, their faces were filled with relief and joy. They happily chatted as they left the academy.

Looking at the students who hadn’t passed the test, their faces were ashen. Their expressions were extremely ugly. Some of them didn’t even leave. They sat dejectedly on the ground, unwilling to accept reality.

After all, entering the Rune Academy had always been their dream. Now that they were unable to pass the test, it was like a huge hammer smashing fiercely into their hearts.

As for Lugh and the others, they had already passed the test, so they did not stay in the academy any longer.

A faint smile hung on their faces as they returned to the Galaxy Hotel.

There was no need for them to go to the Rune Academy for the remaining few days. They could enjoy themselves. After seven days, they would go to the Rune Academy to participate in the next round of the test.

During these few days, under the leadership of Elizabeth, Lugh and the rest had a good tour of the capital of the Xi Zhao Empire.

…

Seven days later.

Lugh and the rest returned to the Rune Academy. The examinees who had passed the test like them had also rushed back.

After looking around, there were less than 3,000 people.

Out of the hundreds of thousands of examinees, only 3,000 were left. This was an extremely exaggerated elimination rate. This was not the final result. They still had to participate in the Divine Monument Test. It was estimated that many more people would be eliminated, at that time, it would already be considered pretty good if more than 1,000 people remained.

Soros wore a long robe as he stood in front of the stone house, his face was solemn. “Congratulations on passing the first round of the test. This proves that you all have the qualifications to enter the next round of the test. However, whether or not you can stay in the academy to study still depends on whether or not you can pass the second round of the test.”

“The second round of the test will light up the Divine Monuments. Later on, I will take you all to the Divine Monument Mausoleum. There are a total of 108 Divine Monuments in the mausoleum, and they are distributed in various places. Use your thoughts to sense them, and if you succeed in sensing them, you will be able to make them shine.”

“As long as you can light up 30 stone monuments, you will be able to enter the Rune Academy.”

“Do you all understand?”

Soros coldly looked at the examinees in front of him.

“Understood.”

Everyone replied in unison.

Their faces were nervous. Some of them were so nervous that their faces turned pale.

Although they had passed the first round of the test, they did not feel very happy.

After all, the first round only screened everyone’s talent. What truly determined whether they could stay in the Rune Academy or not was whether they could light up the thirty Divine Monuments.

This had nothing to do with talent. It could only be said that it had to do with a person’s luck, wisdom, and other mysterious factors.

Everyone could communicate with the Divine Monuments in a different way, so there wasn’t a specific method.

They could only use their minds to sense the location of the Divine Monuments’ light.

Rexton and the others were also nervous.

They were actually very satisfied with the results. They had thought that they wouldn’t even pass the first round of the talent test.

Now, they were actually able to reach the second round of the test.

Although such results weren’t considered much in the Rune Academy, in the rune schools of the other empires, it was an extremely great matter. As long as these people knew that they had passed the Rune Academy’s innate talent test and they had even participated in the test to light up the Divine Monuments, no matter what the results were, these schools would treat them like treasures and welcome them with open arms.

Why?

Of course, it was because the Rune Academy had already helped them assess the talent of these examinees. Those who could pass the first round of the talent test would at least have a light green talent.

Although they were at the bottom of the Rune Academy, this didn’t mean that their light green talent was very bad. On the contrary, it was already very good. At least within the vast rune world, they had obtained a light green talent from the nine great empires, there weren’t many people with light green talent.

Secondly, being able to enter the Divine Monument Mausoleum would also allow one to gain something. It could cleanse one’s soul and strengthen one’s mental strength.

In short, there were all sorts of benefits. That was why these people who had been eliminated by the Xi Xhao Empire’s Rune Academy were treated like treasures by the other schools.

That was why Rexton and the others were in a good mood.

Regardless of whether they could enter the Rune Academy or not, it would be good to experience it. The 108 Divine Monuments in the Divine Monument Mausoleum had been built by the twelve sages of the human race. It was said that they contained the sages’ understanding of runes.

This trip had been worth it.

Even if they did not pass the test, after they left, there would still be other schools fighting for their admission. This was not the only rune school in the Xi Zhao Empire.

To be precise, this Rune Academy should be called the First Rune Academy, or the Starry Sky Academy.

This was because the creator of this academy was the Starry Sky Rune King from thousands of years ago.
