6 Blowing minds and turning heads as a 10 year old

Even before the test for martial talent began, I was already the forerunner of the examination. With my exceptional strength and concentration, unless I didn't have an abnormally weak talent, I would be graded very high.

The test for martial talent contained 2 parts. First, we had to pass through an area which looked like a metal detector gate we find in airports on Earth. This produced an x-ray image, not of our bones but meridians and dantian. My results were very good but not too exceptional or earth-shattering. The next part was to test the reservoirs of internal qi in our body. This test gave a good idea on the initial amount of true essence we would be able to convert when we formally enter into Foundation Consolidation stage. This test required us to put on something like an oxygen mask and regulate our breathing according to a specific rhythm given to us by the examiner. It was at this point that the examiner testing me found that there was something seriously wrong with me.

At first, he rubbed his eyes a couple of times at the screen (which was hidden from the examinees) before asking me a couple of times to regulate my breath carefully. When he found out there was nothing wrong with my breathing, his pupils dilated as he immediately called for the head of Examinations and my eldest brother to take a look at my results. When both of them arrived and looked at the screen, both of them almost shouted aloud as they quickly covered their mouths and looked at me as if I was a monster.

Soon I was brought into another room where I was informed that the level of internal qi in my body was off the charts and such a huge amount was not found in humans but beasts that usually have a stronger body type than humans like tigers or rhinos. The people in the room included the head of Examination, the head of the branch and my second uncle who had been expressly called for this reason. The three of them took a hard look at my body using true essence. When they found that there was no foreign object in my body, they asked me if I ever ate something strange. I replied that I only ate what was served on the dining table. After this, the other 2 people asked my uncle some questions and soon the puzzlement in their eyes turned into excitement as they eyed me like a tiger eyeing a sheep. If I have to give an analogy, the situation was similar to university recruiters looking at a child with an IQ above 250. They couldn't even wait for him to pass high school.
