《Blood Evolution System 》Chapter 35: Overwhelming Talent
Advertisement
The examinees went into the booths, one by one. Everyone was able to illuminate the crystal ball on the table. However, the people whose sensitivity to energy didn't surpass grade 2 were instantly disqualified. They left the testing booth with a foul mood and some even cried out in the middle of the packed streets. The sadness welling up in their hearts was well worth it, as they had lost the best chance of their lives.
Most of them were commoners and the military academy was the easiest way to upgrade their status. Yet, they didn't even pass the first assessment. Their dreams were shattered in a single moment.
It didn't take long for Varth Hollow turn to arrive. His sensitivity to energy was worse than Nevis Truemight but he was still a level above the average passing grade. His sensitivity to energy was 5.9.
"It isn't a good grade but you don't look even a bit sad," the examiner said as he looked at Varth.
"I am a person that heavily relies on the usage of the new world's technology to match up to prodigies. Why would a measly grading system dampen my mood?" Varth replied with a smile.
"Whatever you say."
The examiner motioned for him to leave the testing booth.
His grade was more than enough to pass the test and he soon arrived at the resting lobby.
The assessment continued and soon it was Peter's and Leila's turn.
"Congratulations, young boy, your sensitivity to energy like magic power is 3 times better than an average person. You passed the first assessment by a hairbreadth."
Peter wiped the layer of sweat on his forehead, breathing a sigh of relief as he left the testing booth with shaky steps.
"Thank god. I should really give a treat to big brother. If it wasn't for him I would have failed the very first assessment."

Truth is, Peter's vessel expanded by a lot in the last few days, and now he was able to contain 20 units of battle energy. Basically, his body constitution has increased to 20 units over the past few days. It was a result of hardcore training and also because of the uniqueness of his own body that he didn't realize.
A person's sensitivity to energy is always a grade higher than their body constitution. 20 points in the body constitution signify a grade-2 constitution. A person with a grade-2 constitution will have a grade-3 sensitivity to energy.
Peter barely met the minimum requirement for passing the first assessment of the military academy entrance examination. He didn't head straight to the cloud tower as he wanted to go there together with his sister. He stood near the testing booth that Leila entered and waited for her to come out of there.
"Good gracious!"
The examiner's pretty eyes opened wide and his mouth gaped as he stared at Leila with a bewildered expression on her face.
"Umm… miss is something wrong? Did I fail the test?" Leila asked while feeling sad at the thought of failing the test.
"Nope, you didn't fail the assessment. Rather, you aced it. You see, these basic-grade energy affinity crystals can be used to sensitivity to energy between the first and tenth grades. Any higher than that and they'll fail to work. Your energy sensitivity is better than the tenth grade since it failed to work. We'll need to get an intermediate-grade energy affinity crystal as your sensitivity surpasses grade-10. You're so young, this can only be considered a huge surprise." The examiner said as she felt awed by the cute little girl in front of her.
A young man around the age of 16 was considered talented if his sensitivity to energy is grade-9 or grade-10. Any more than that and that person will be considered as a prodigy. The academy didn't believe that they'll find extraordinary individuals during the assessment held in a place like Earth and so they only brought a few advanced grade testing equipment with them.

"What should we do now?" Leila asked the examiner.
"You wait here for a while. I'll request an upgraded version of this crystal from my higher-ups."
"Okay," Leila nodded.
Honestly, even she was surprised by her superior sensitivity to energy. Previously, she wasn't much better than Peter in terms of strength. However, not only has she gotten stronger after the evolution process but her bodily conditions have also increased greatly.
"It's all thanks to big brother Vincent. He saved my life, granting me a new one, one in which I have a far better body and strength."
Leila internally thanked Vincent. She wanted to repay his grace as he has done a lot for her and her little brother. She knew that big brother Vincent has gone out of his way to training her little brother over the past few days.
"There is a talented individual in my booth. I am requesting a better version of the testing equipment. Please send it to me as soon as possible," the examiner said to Kayle.
"Request confirmed. A handyman carrying an intermediate-grade energy affinity crystal is dispatched to your location," Kayle replied before she told Alex to go there.
"This is the second person. Looks like this year's entrance exam is going to be fruitful," Theodore said with a pleased expression on his face as he sipped hot milk tea from the plastic cup held in his hand.
"Yeah, but I still don't feel happy with this situation!" Kayle said with a frown.
"Why? What makes you so unhappy?"
"Why are you acting like you don't know? Just looking at the face of that bastard Alex makes me feel nauseous, but the higher-ups still dispatched us both at the same location. Are they looking to pick a fight with me?"
"I don't think so,"
"Wait... you!" Kayle pointed at him. "You're acting skeptically. You know something about this messed-up situation right?" Kayle said as she leaned closer to Theodore, their noses almost sticking to each other.
"No need to get so aggressive. No one likes an aggressive female. That's why you're still single."
"Senior would you like to get punched in the face? If so, please keep on blabbering."
"No thanks. My face is too precious and I would rather not get hurt for no reason. It's not like I had any intentions to hide it from you. You just didn't ask before."
"Will you tell me now that I am asking."
"Sure, I heard that Alex requested the higher-ups to dispatch you here. Though you should take it as a rumor as I haven't confirmed the validity of this information. You know, I am too busy to do that," Theodore said calmly, accurately throwing the empty cup into a dustbin dozens of meters away.
"Ugh, what's that bastard up to now," Kayle grumbled with a twisted face as she felt sick with the psychopathic ways of Alex.

Demon Blade
Ryuken is your average 15-year old high schooler, living his life in an ordinary way, until he comes across a mysterious katana and is pulled into the world of unbelievable supernatural.An anime-inspired passion project of mine, sparked from my childhood love of shounen anime. I have big plans for this world but we'll see if I get to stick around long enough to finish it.Enjoy! Notes: 1. My writing style is mostly script-like with some 3rd person-ish narrative sprinkled in, and it is VERY dialogue-heavy. 2. It can be pretty slow, as I tend to focus more on characters rather than action. 3. Since the story is set in Japan with Japanese characters, I will be using Japanese honorifics whenever the characters are interacting with each other. To learn more about Japanese Honorifics, you can go to this website here. I apologize if I used them wrongly, or if I forgot to use them from time to time, or if it turns you off. 4. I don't have a fixed release schedule as I don't have time to write regularly at the moment. I may update tomorrow or next year. Who knows. I'm like your dad who's gone to the store for some milk. I'll be back. Cover Source
