4 Cultivator school and the talent test

Finally, the plane landed on the capital planet, the old man said with a smile "Let's see each other some other time young man" and got into a car.

Alex also said goodbye and got into a taxi.

The taxi guy asked, "where do you want to go young man?"

"To the cultivator school please." Said Alex while staring out of the window.

It was his first time after rebirth seeing this type of a city, buildings which were as tall as the sky, black asphalt roads filled with cars, signals, cultivators flying on swords everything was wonderful. Comparing this planet to B-237 was like comparing a city with a village. Although B-237 was a commercial planet, it was at a much smaller, the main attraction in B-237 where it's resting stops, hot springs and market because it was in route with many larger planets. But the capital city was different it was like a living being always moving and changing.

"Is this your first time to capital city young man?" asked the driver.

"Yes, actually this is my first time off my home planet" replied Alex

"Oh, you must visit the market after you settle in then you will be in for a surprise then," said the driver.

"Oh, okay "replied Alex

After over a 30min of the journey he reached an area without any tall buildings. After which there were a big wall and a big gate. On the top of the gate were written words 'Gold mouse cultivator school' in big words. After paying the cab fee Alex was dropped off. Alex noticed there were many adults with their children coming in. He also noticed that there were a larger number of common mortals going to an area with a huge machine.

While Alex was pondering what was happening, a small chubby fat guy came from behind and asked: "Are you also going to cultivator school?"

Alex was stunned but still calmly replied "Yes"

"Oh me too," said the fat guy.

Unable to hold his curiosity Alex asked: "what is going on over there?"

Fatty simply replied, "I don't know, maybe there is free food?"

Alex was again stunned by the little guy's idiotic nature but then he realized this was an only 5-6-year-old child and didn't say anything.

Another smart looking child seemingly heard what they were talking came and explained "There are doing a talent test"

Alex said, "Oh then we don't have to do the talent test?"

He shook his head and said" yes we also have to do it but not there, there is a separate area of nobles"

Alex asked again "how is the talent measured?"

He replied," you stand in the machine and it scans your body and the state of meridians and then classifies you into 5 levels in the order of iron, copper, silver, gold, and platinum."

And continued" people less than copper talent will get rejected and as the higher, you go you get more preferential treatment from the school"

While they were talking suddenly a beautiful young lady came out and announced "All noble children please gather over here we will be testing your talent"

All noble children starting gathering in an area, unlike the area of the commoners this area had many more amenities like tents, water, and they were even serving sweets to the children

After everybody got settled and they started measuring the talent, most of them were many copper ranks, there were only 5 silver ranks, and 2 gold ranks till now.

"No 21 Michael Connor"

The smart looking Child who previously explained got up and went to the machine. After he got in the machine started scanning and finally gave the result 'PLATINUM'

All the people were astonished and people were whispering to each other, all the teachers had a bright smile on their faces.

"No 22 Kyle Jones"

The fatty got up excitedly ran to the machine. It was so funny when the fatty was running all the fat was wobbling. Some people could not hold back and burst out laughing, but when they saw the result all the people shut their mouths and sucked in a breath of cold air. The screen showed the word 'Platinum' again.

Even the teachers got shocked because generally a platinum rank talent once every 2-3 years was considered very well but now there were 2 platinum's ranks. They started to test the machine to see if it had any problems. While the fatty came out with a huge smile on his face and sat beside Alex and started bragging.

"Did you see I got platinum Rank Talent?"

After another while there were 2 copper rank, 7 silver ranks, and 1 gold rank, it was finally Alex's turn to do the test

"No 33 Alex Fahler"

Alex got up and slowly walked into the machine.

Alex stood in the machine while the machine said" Please put in your ID card on the pedestal"

Alex followed and put the ID card on the cut-out for the ID card.

Then the voice followed "Please place your hand on the pedestal for the spiritual imprint"

And Alex placed his hand on the pedestal and gave his spiritual imprint.

"Please stand straight without moving please"

And the pedestal went into the ground.

After one row of laser came out of the front, back and the top.

They moved front and back three times with green laser moving about while there was a progress bar on the screen which was filling up fast.

When the progress bar filled up a message popped up "ding! Your Talent has been scanned please Step out of the cabin"

When Alex Stepped out of the cabin all the people were staring at him like he was a zoo. Some of the girls were blushing while looking at Alex. The fatty Kyle was looking at him like he was some kind of food. Even Michael was looking at him with a dumbfounded face. Alex turned around to see his result and there was the screen with huge words 'DIAMOND'. He finally understood the reason for all the weird gazes. He knew from this moment onwards he was bound to be a celebrity and he will have no peace in his school.
