Chapter 66: Two Heavyweight Entrance Exams

~8 min read 1,517 words

The first round of the Full Moon Academy entrance exam was not complicated: enter the assessment area, put on the Sorting Hat, and the Sorting Hat would automatically announce the candidate's promotion record.

"Candidate 13, Li Moumou. Resource Quality: C+. No Divine Favor Title discovered, and no record of battle against the Abyss. Eliminated."

"Candidate 15, Regimi. Resource Quality: B+. No Divine Favor Title discovered, and no record of battle against the Abyss. Eliminated."

"Candidate 19, Wang Dabian. Resource Quality: D+. No Divine Favor Title discovered. Innate talent discovered: Sponge Body Turning Crankshaft. Promoted! Preliminary house: Meticulous Viper!"

Inside the trial grounds, candidates entered the assessment area one after another, and left the stage one after another.

Their expressions varied, and only they themselves knew the warmth and coldness in their hearts.

Of these geniuses in their own stories, less than half could stay here.

In the audience seats, the residents of Full Moon Academy cheered for those who stayed and encouraged those who left, as if telling them they would definitely make it next time.

But everyone knew that those who left had left.

After all, Full Moon Academy only offered one entrance opportunity in a lifetime.

"The quality of this year's candidates is truly outrageous. I wish our divine school had so many excellent geniuses enrolling."

On the guest seats, the Order High Priest said somewhat enviously.

"After all, it is the Age of Miracles. Besides, don't you think the birth of so many geniuses is a blessing for the human race?" The Furnace Archbishop laughed. "By the way, who do you think will become the top student in this entrance exam?"

"The Son of God of Furnace, and those few geniuses of Shadow have all arrived. Their strength has reached Third Rank, and their chances of winning are great." The Order High Priest stroked his beard.

"Hmph, they can at most fight for second place." War God Bas snorted coldly and raised his head arrogantly. "Because my child took the exam this time."

Order High Priest:...

Furnace Archbishop:...

Wait, did we ask you? You just come over to interject?

And you talk like that, how are we supposed to respond? Even if your son is really strong, there's no need to show off everywhere, okay?

The atmosphere instantly cooled, and the big shots present all revealed expressions like constipation.

"Pfft." Liuli, sitting in the back row, couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Lady Yenifer, why are you laughing?" War God Bas furrowed his brow.

"No, no." Liuli laughed. "Mr. Bas, I just feel that what you said is very right."

"Oh? Which one?"

"They are all here to fight for second place." Liuli swept her hair behind her ear, her gaze sweeping toward Big Boss, revealing an expectant smile.

Just then, inside the trial grounds, the Chief Examiner shouted loudly.

"Candidate 24, David Li. Resource Quality: S+. Divine Favor Title discovered: Innate Deception Believer. Eliminated! Someone come, seize this spy!"

A group of mages swarmed forward and pressed the candidate, who was still sitting on the chair, to the ground.

"Injustice, Adult, injustice! I know nothing!"

"Don't be afraid, child. If you are not a spy of the Abyss, we will absolutely not wrong you!"

The candidate was soon dragged away. Lilith nervously watched this scene and floated to Big Boss's side. "Hey, are you okay? You have a whole bunch of Abyss Insignias on you!"

"Don't worry." Big Boss glanced at her. "The Sorting Hat can only identify Divine Favor Titles and Fate names, but cannot identify who bestowed the title."

"I see..." Lilith suddenly realized, and the heart she had been holding in suspense relaxed.

No wonder Big Boss changed his title to Great Love Little Angel; it turned out he was guarding against this move.

Big Boss was indeed a Returner; he knew everything.

It was great to have him as the Savior! The little interlude ended in less than two minutes, and the examiner for the assessment had arrived at Candidate 25—

Mu.

"Cheng, Xiu Si, later you don't need to be afraid. Just go on stage openly." Mu looked at the Sorting Hat on stage and said lightly. "Although your resource quality is a bit worse than mine, passing this first round will be easy."

"As for the exams after that, leave everything to me."

"Mu Da Ren, hearing you say that, I'm relieved."

Xiu Si scratched the back of his head, showing a very unconfident appearance.

"Mm."

Big Boss nodded slightly and said nothing.

Mu looked at him deeply again, carrying a set of heavy armor on his body, walked toward the Exam Platform, and the corner of his mouth gradually curled up.

The more Big Boss resisted acknowledging him as boss, the more excited Mu became.

What was more satisfying than taming a thousand-li horse?

Don't worry, Big Boss. I will soon prove to you that only a peerless genius like me, a once-in-ten-thousand-years prodigy, a transcendent dragon among men, is worthy of your loyalty!

"Is that War God Bas's son, Adult Mu!"

"So handsome, so handsome!"

"It's not just that he's handsome. Adult Mu is already a Strong One of Third Rank, a true genius among geniuses!"

"Is that so?"

"..." The envious voices around grew louder and louder, from just a few people at first to finally the entire Hui Dian Chang crowd cheering wildly.

Hearing those voices, Mu smiled even more happily.

After all, the ones who started the rhythm at the beginning were the paid posters he had arranged yesterday, the purpose being to pose enough for today's public display of holiness.

It cost his father quite a bit of money!

But all of this was worth it! Thinking this, Mu ascended the test platform, sat down calmly, and put on the Sorting Hat.

Immediately,

The Sorting Hat shouted loudly: "Candidate 25, Mu. Strength: Third Stage Initial Phase! Resource Quality: S+! Divine Favor Title 【Rebellious Glory】!"

"Record of battle against the Abyss: killed 21 Initial Stage believers!"

"House suggestion: High Lion! Frost Winter Falcon!"

The Sorting Hat's voice fell, and the hall that had just been clamorous instantly sank into a deathly silence.

The next second, thunderous roars followed one after another!

"What, S+ talent!"

"He hasn't even enrolled yet, and he's already killed 21 First Stage disciples?"

"He was actually chosen by two academies simultaneously!"

"Hope, this is the Human Race's true hope!"

Praise rang out incessantly, and the War God Bas on the stage also revealed a complacent smile.

People of their bloodline, everything about them is fine, they just have the quirk of showing off in front of others; they're uncomfortable if they don't chuunibyou.

Seeing his son's successful chuunibyou appearance at this moment, he thought to himself: steady, it's all steady.

Thus, he turned his head to look at the Order and Furnace High Priests, wearing an embarrassed look:

"Heh, 21 First Stage disciples, not bad, didn't disgrace our family's reputation."

"Sigh, but Mu is really something too, showing up this early, giving the people behind him however much psychological pressure!"

Order and Furnace High Priest:...

On the stands, Mu was also smiling proudly.

So this is the feeling of chuunibyou...

Too awesome! He opened his arms, closed his eyes, enjoyed the crowd's cheers, patted his own armor, and let out a roar he would regret for life: "From today on, this class of students is covered by me, Mu!"

"This student, I understand your excitement, but please hurry up; there are still quite a few people behind waiting for the entrance test."

"Oh oh, okay, I got it!" Mu stopped roaring and walked down the stage.

Lined up behind him was Xiu Si Da Er, looking timid, as if he had not a shred of confidence.

"Relax." Mu patted his shoulder full of chuunibyou: "You'll pass."

"Boss..." Xiu Si Da Er nodded bitterly.

The two brushed past each other; Xiu Si Da Er sat on the chair and nervously put on the Sorting Hat.

"Hmm, examinee No. 26 Xiu Si Da Er, strength: Second Stage Great Perfection! Resource Quality: S!"

Xiu Si listened, secretly delighted.

That's right, this rank and strength were already enough for him to enroll.

Moreover, it wouldn't attract too much attention, enough for him to blend into the circle of geniuses, hiding behind the geniuses.

Everything was under his control.

This is the Dal Family's way of conducting oneself.

The corner of his mouth curled up imperceptibly.

Just then, the Sorting Hat made a strange sound.

"Whoosh!"

Like it was sucking in a breath of cold air.

Immediately after, a roar several decibels louder than the one announcing Mu just now abruptly arrived!

"Unbelievable, unbelievable, Xiu Si Da Er's Divine Favor Title is — Funeral of the Abyss Dragon Descendant, Seizer of the Abyss Dragon's Beloved!"

The fake smile on Xiu Si Da Er's face came to an abrupt stop.

He listened dazedly to the echo in his ears, his pupils dilating bit by bit.

"Wh-what thing is this?"

"Funeral of the Dragon Descendant?"

"Abyss Dragon, who is that?"
