"Who would realize that Max is a grade S talent. He too low key" Dorothy exclaimed. Her eyes still opened wide since she heard about it and her small mouth seems can't keep close.
"Close your mouth. Fly will enter inside you know"
"Hmmph!", Dorothy harumph and then stick her tongue at Bucca.
Turn out Dorothy is also a child genius with her grade A talent while Bucca and Cassius have grade B talent. Cassius at this time silently staring at the group surrounding Max.
"Okay, everyone! Enough commotion. All groups already arrived. Begin preparation to return to Ivory Tower." One of the elders seems leader of the camp shouted.
Max already realized the difference between Mages since he arrived. Although he cannot scan those Mage he can deduce from the radiations emitted from their body with SECOND's help.
'That guy is far stronger than Elder Guido. His strength is on a different level! Elder Guilo is First Grade Mage and this guy probably a level above, a Second Grade Mage.'
All other Mages listened to the command and stop buzzing. The form of respect can be observed from the Mages toward the golden hair Second Grade Mage.
Max returned to his group and gathered with all other applicants of Ivory Tower. Three pairs of eyes are on him. Max knew without seeing with his eyes where it came from with SECOND's continuous scanning of around him.
'These two must be Raynard Gaius and Minerva Embers. They are also the same grade S talent as me but they probably the real deal. But why Cassius stared at me too? Jealousy?'
The group of future apprentices follows the elders embarking the Ivory Tower's airship. This airship is different from what Max took before. It is far grander and more majestic with Ivory Tower's insignia proudly emblemed on it.
The airship is also faster. The elder informed it will arrive Ivory Tower in a week despite the distance from this place to Ivory Tower is far more than Hamlet Island to this place.
Inside the airship, many people clustered around Max after hearing the news about his talent. Same situations can be seen around Minerva and Raynard. Max answered amicably to everyone question. Right after dinner, Max quickly went to his room after informing everyone he needs to take rest.
"Finally I got time for myself. Being to outstanding has its disadvantages too but I need to look for the positive. With my 'talent' I surely will be taken care more and has extra access to more resources but I will under constant observation from the surrounding."
Max sat on his bed and start meditating.

After started meditating since a month ago, Max's stats gradually recovering and improving. The most obvious changes are the spiritual force. Max's spiritual force slowly increasing from 0.001 to 0.9 before he arrived on the Central Continent.
The euphoria of seeing his stats slowly increasing made he remembered his distant childhood of playing role play games. Max always meditating whenever he has time.
After a week, Max keeps meditating and only go out of his room to eat. He taciturnly declines any invitations to gathering. Minerva and Raynard also did the same.

"Not many changes to my physical stats but my spiritual force stuck at 0.99. No matter what I did, I can't break through to 1 point" Max sighed.
"This Basic Meditation Technique is incomplete. Some pieces of information are missing. I guess I need to properly join the academy for this."
