Mo Shan felt his heart, skip a beat, the moment he stared into Xian's eyes.
His eyes had no fear, no uncertainty, instead it was filled with joy and extreme confidence, as if this was his playground.
The orb started glowing brightly....after, a few seconds of Xian placing his hand on it. Gushes of winds, started flowing from the orb as, it started to crack, slowly. The cracks were so deep and clear that they were visible, through naked eyes.
Mo Shan gulped his saliva, as a picture of a memory flashed inside his brain, instantly recognising the young man, beside him.
"Xian— He is someone...from the Xian family!But.....this familiar face and aura, it is from the master of the Xian family, and if my memory serves me right, then...he had only daughter, no son....just who is this young man?" He nodded as he resolved himself to calm down.
Meanwhile, Xian had long ago had decided to use his ability.
"System, activate channeling!"
A surge of power ran through his hands and reached the orb, cracking it more, an invisible aura surrounded the orb, as cyan bright light was released from it.
The moment, the light was shot, everybody's vision was obstructed for a second, as a group of words appeared in front of Xian's vision.
[ «Dear, host! Your ability, 'Channeling' has absorbed the ability of the 'inspect' orb» ]
Xian was totally confused, but before he could ask anything, several words started materializing them out of nowhere, in front of his eyes.
[«Dear host, congrats! You have successfully absorbed, the ability, inspect»]
[‹Rewards- 50+ exp›]
Xian's mouth was wide open.
But, it was not the right time...because, the very next moment, the orb cracked into pieces, baffling the others.
The men seated in front of the laptops, immediately, stood up, with terrified looks, as they looked at each other, nodding with nervousness.
"I.Q - unknown, ability power - 10,00,000 (Top S-rank), physique - unknown...Result - passed" They spoke up altogether, their faces had totally lost their color.
The moment, the words escaped their mouths, everybody felt a cold shiver in their body, including Mo Shan.
"What a S-rank? Does that mean there are 7 S-ranks in our country?"
"Why is his I.Q and physique unknown?"
"So, that's where the confidence, comes from."
Many gossips broke out among the left examinees, leaving Mo Shan in just a thought, "This boy...he is too mysterious! Just who is he? Is he from the Hu family?"
--------------
The initial test was over now — with a shocking relevation, that Xian was a S-rank. There were still gossips around about himself among the examinees, well, most of them were girls, because he was handsome, and also a S-rank, so it didn't really mattered that who was he? Or, he had a girlfriend or not?
Since, the gossips, Xian had been distancing himself from others.
Well, of course, Xian was not much of a socialistic, he was a lone wolf with the system — with no goal at all.....at least for now.
It was not before a couple of minutes, until the instructor for the next test came — his arrival was something worth telling of, right before the moment he came, furry of pink petals accompanied by sudden gusts of wind, started falling down, as if raining.
The petals started to collect in a small place and the winds circled fiercely around it, forming a small tornado, and from its center came a silhouette, immediately dispersing the tornado as if that didn't existed in the first place.
He was a young good-looking man in his 30s, his eyes were deep green like a green translucent emerald jade in color, hair short and purple and skin nor white nor brown. In, conclusion, he was partially handsome if not handsome.
"Just what was that?" Xian was confused, and bewildered, just like the other examinees, as he questioned immediately to the system.
However, the system didn't, even bothered itself to answer it....
Xian sighed!
After all, there was nothing he could do....
"Dear, examinees! Hope you all are doing great! I am Ding Xiang, your instructor for this test. Let me clarify something, for you all, in this test only 20 of you will be selected out of 500 (therefore the ratio = 1:25) — meaning, the success rate will be only 4 percent(℅). And, also about the rules, they will be the same as of the earlier test." Ding Xiang said, as he looked at everybody with anticipation.
But, everyone, had a, wierd expression....on their face.
Seriously? Only 4% pass rate...
They couldn't even think, that what would happen in the 'Bottom' test.
Indeed, it was the very mark of the beginning of the 'Middle' test!....
