Chapter 11 A Generation of Geniuses
The candidates in the audience panicked when they saw that none of the first 100 candidates had been admitted.
It's too cruel; out of a hundred candidates, not even one will emerge with exceptional talent.
However, seeing that some people had been specially admitted through the holographic screen eased the anxiety of the candidates.
Most people showed expressions of envy.
"So extraordinary talent is useful after all; even a level 1 person can be specially recruited."
"No wonder the enrollment quota used to be less than a hundred, but the number of people admitted in the end was always more than that."
Li Sheng took in the expressions of the candidates below the stage and said in a low voice, "Thank you, Teacher Qin."
In fact, Li Ming's "skill" of cultivating plants is not a particularly good talent; cultivating a level 1 extraordinary talent is too difficult.
Such talents are not uncommon. Although Qin Yan, as an admissions teacher, has a special admissions quota, he should not have used one of the quotas in the first round.
Qin Yan's actions may not have been without compassion. If all 100 students were to be eliminated in the first round, it would definitely have a negative impact on the mentality of the remaining students.
Although extraordinary talent is said to be impartial and all people are equal, who really knows the truth?
At least Lin Tao and Jiang Peng knew that everyone was equal for 99.999999% of people, but there are always exceptions, aren't there?
"Old Li, you flatter me," Qin Yan replied.
Li Ming's matter was thus resolved, giving other test takers some confidence.
"The second round of extraordinary awakening begins. Candidates, please take your positions."
The extraordinary awakening ceremony continues.
Another hundred candidates ascended the Divine Platform.
A hundred beams of light shot out from the wormhole overhead once again.
Half a minute later.
"Number 4743, Zhao Juan, extraordinary talent, 'Skill', Level 1, Foot Massage."
"Number 2122, Zhang Sen, extraordinary talent, 'Skill', Level 1, Wood Carving."
"..."
One after another, the extraordinary talents of the candidates were displayed on the screen in mid-air.
One batch after another, candidates took to the stage and then left.
The candidates who stepped off the stage looked ashen-faced, and many of them burst into tears. Those who were kept behind by the teachers, on the other hand, were all overjoyed, as it meant that their lives had changed.
……
"No. 9142, Wang Bing, extraordinary talent, 'Skill', Level 3, Shattering Void Palm."
……
Suddenly.
The broadcast volume increased significantly, announcing the first Level 3 extraordinary talent, and it was even a "skill".
"Wang Bing, you stay," Li Sheng said.
"Yes."
Wang Bing walked excitedly into the group of remaining candidates, while the other candidates looked at him with envy.
Professor Geng from Yuntai University spoke first, "What do you think of Wang Bing? He scored 26 points in the spiritual energy assessment, which is level 3 in 'skill'."
Based on past experience, among these 10,000 candidates, there are only 5 or 6 with Level 3 extraordinary talents. Their skills are already quite good, and the Shattering Void Palm technique sounds like a master's palm technique.
No one answered Teacher Geng's question, and the admissions officers all looked at Lin Tao and Jiang Peng.
Jiang Peng said, "I only need level 3 'spells'. If a level 2 'spell' has any special features, I will recruit it on a special basis."
Lin Tao replied, "Level 4."
Hearing the conversation from behind, Wang Bing felt slightly disappointed. These admissions officers were clearly led by Lin Tao and Jiang Peng. He had just learned through the bracelet that Jiang Peng represented Luojiang Academy, one of the top eight universities in the country.
As for Lin Tao, he didn't know him and couldn't find any information about him, but since he only recruits Level 4 students, one can imagine what he represents.
"Old Li, the situation is not optimistic. A quarter of the candidates have already passed, and only one has reached Level 3."
"Number 1332, Yang Lei, extraordinary talent, 'Skill', Level 2, Gale."
The volume of the broadcast was raised to a whole new level.
Li Sheng chuckled and said, "What's the rush? We're here now, aren't we?"
The candidate named Yang Lei jumped up and down excitedly, shouting, "Awesome! I'm awesome! I did it!"
"Yang Lei, come here quickly. This is a sacred place; no noise is allowed," a teacher in charge shouted.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry."
The extraordinary awakening ceremony is still ongoing.
"Number 4412, Xie Ying, extraordinary talent, 'Spirit', Level 2, Beast Taming."
"Okay, Xie Ying, come here quickly!" Professor Wu from Sanshan University laughed loudly.
Beast Taming is a very useful "spirit" ability. It allows you to communicate with other dimensions and summon a spirit beast as a partner. A level 2 Beast Taming skill is generally quite good.
"Hey, Lao Wu, that's going too far. How come you're already forcing someone on Xie Ying before she's even chosen her?"
"What? Old Geng, have you forgotten about one of the mountains at my Sanshan University? My Sanshan University's Beast Taming Department is no worse than the Eight Great Universities."
"Hmph." Professor Geng from Yuntai University snorted coldly and remained silent.
That's true, he was just saying it. If he were to forcefully compete with Sanshan University, it would only harm Xie Ying.
……
"No. 5321, Li Yi, extraordinary talent, 'Skill', Level 3, Sunset Archery."
……
"Haha...not bad, not bad." Li Sheng laughed. The situation had taken a dramatic turn, and it seemed that this year's extraordinary exam was much better than last year's.
offstage.
Zhang Dawei said to Xiao Weiqing, "Brother Qing, I'm going."
"come on!"
"Um."
Then, Zhang Dawei walked onto the stage with a look of facing certain death, but after taking only a few steps, he gasped and slowed down because he felt that his bladder could no longer hold.
Xiao Weiqing saw Zhang Dawei in position on the screen and secretly cheered for his friend, hoping he could acquire a great extraordinary talent.
"Number 1234, Wu Yuan, extraordinary talent, 'Body', Level 1, Hand Speed."
"Number 4321, Lin Qu, extraordinary talent, 'Skill', Level 1, Invisibility."
When Lin Qu's talent was announced, it attracted a lot of attention, and many people, mostly male candidates, showed envious expressions.
However, level 1 invisibility was not very effective, and no one was left behind.
Lin Qu stepped down in disappointment.
Li Sheng said to the people around him, "Make a record of that invisible examinee in his file, in case he does something wrong in the future."
"good!"
Continue, the transcendent awakening ritual does not stop because of anyone's departure or stay.
"Number 6666, Zhang Dawei, extraordinary talent, 'Skill', Level 3, Water Control."
The voice on the radio was excited and instantly rose in pitch.
boom!
The candidates below erupted in chaos.
Appeared.
The first level 3 "skill" is water control, which is very practical. Everyone can already see Zhang Dawei killing demons on the battlefield in the future.
"Level 3, 'Spell', me? Were you just talking about me?"
At this time, Zhang Dawei was still confused.
"Zhang Dawei, come here."
Jiang Peng shouted at Zhang Dawei, who was stunned.
"Ah, oh, is the transcendent awakening over?"
"Okay, it's over. Your spiritual energy assessment score is over 30 points, and your 'skill' is at level 3. On behalf of Luojiang Academy, I accept you. Do you have any questions?"
Zhang Dawei nodded. "Teacher, I have a question."
Jiang Peng frowned slightly. He had only asked casually. At Luojiang Academy, apart from the specially recruited Level 2 students, most were Level 3. This candidate was a bit tactless. But who told him to ask?
"Speak, what's the problem?"
"Teacher, can I go to the toilet first? I can't hold it in any longer."
Zhang Dawei pleaded while clamping his legs together.
Jiang Peng: "..."
Everyone: "..."
Li Sheng said, "Go ahead, there are no toilets at the Divine Gift Platform. Go to the hover train, there are toilets on it."
"Thank you, thank you, teacher."
Zhang Dawei quickly left the stage, not forgetting to encourage Xiao Weiqing as he passed by, "Keep it up, Brother Qing!"
Xiao Weiqing smiled and nodded, genuinely happy for Zhang Dawei.
Another half hour passed.
The extraordinary talent has entered its final stage.
At that moment, the appearance of a girl attracted everyone's attention.
