2 Horrifying talent

Walking back to the entrance of the village, Bohai approached the man behind the table again.

Sensing the presence of someone approaching, the man opened his eyes slightly to peek at who it was.

Making out the figure of a young ragged boy, the man frowned as he remember the ragged boy that left earlier.

"Listen kid, if you don't have money..."

*Clack*

The mans eyes wandered to the table where Bohai had placed ten shiny gold coins.

"hmm... alright give me your hand." the man said after taking another glance at Bohai.

"Age 12... pass. Now your essence level."

Three rings appeared behind Bohai and immediatly caused the man to fall from his chair.

There was disbelief written all over his face as he tried to say something but nothing would come out of his mouth.

"Do I pass?" Bohai asked.

The man was on the verge of tears, does the question even need to be asked? If he couldn't pass then who could?

After a long silence the man immediately got up and grabbed Bohai by the shoulders.

"Welcome to Shrek academy! You can call me teacher Li"

With that being said, Li immediatly closed the application booth and pulled Bohai along towards the academy.

Throughout all of this Bohai was like a ragdoll and just allowed Li to drag him around.

Eventually, they arrived near a crowd of kids watching the others measure their essence level.

"Wow, a level 27 spirit grandmaster!"

"There's so many high level Spirit grandmasters this year!"

"So talented."

As Bohai and the man approached the the testing grounds, the students took notice and gave way.

"Another aplicant?"

Everyone was curious and looked over at Bohai. The first thing they all noticed about him was his attire.

He was completely filthy but there was no difference from a homeless man.

Besides that, he was pretty average looking with his snow white hair giving him a plus in the looks department.

"Go, place your hand on that crystal orb." Li pushed Bohai towards the ball.

Nodding his head, Bohai reached out towards the ball. As soon as his hand touched it a shadowy creature appeared inside the ball then revealed his essence level.

"t... thirty six!"

"That's insane! He's a level 36 spirit elder?"

"What's his spirit? I've never seen anything like it before!"

The crowd instantly went nuts with the reveal of Bohais power, none of their shock could be contained.

Even Li who was already aware of his talents couldn't help but be shocked out of his mind.

Dai Mubai was the one who was shocked the most out of everyone as the level of Bohai was extremely close to his.

It also didnt help that the Bohai was only 12 right now, imagine once he reaches his age?

Unconsciously, Dai Mubai developed somewhat of a fear towards Bohai.

It wasn't towards Bohai himself but rather the talent he displayed to everyone.

"Alright! Mu Bai, take the new students to the next test!" Li said with a smile etched across his face.

It was finally time. Time for Shrek to rise above all other schools now that they had these monsters.

Mu Bai looked lost as he unconsciously nodded to Li's words and started walking away.

As the group of kids followed after Mu Bai, the pink haired girl from before approached Bohai.

"Hey, I'm Ning Rongrong, what's your name?"

The rest of the group's ears perked up as they were also curious on who Bohai was.

"Sun Bohai."

Bohai's answer was straightforward and to the point, nothing more than what Rongrong asked.

This put Rongrong in an awkward position since she was hoping he would say something more about himself.

Unfortunately for her Bohai was completely clueless on human interactions and only knew as far as asking and answering questions, he was no good at small or big talks.

Clearing her throat Rongrong tried again, "you're pretty talented, a spirit elder already at our age."

"...Yes."

Once again she failed. Bohai was actually having a harder time than her since she didnt even ask a question that time so he had to think about how to reply.

Failing the second time caused her to frown and even start to show some of her rotten and spoiled princess personality.

"What's wrong with you? I'm speaking to you, cant you even try to act interested?" Rongrong pouted.

After thinking for a bit Bohai replied, "Nothings wrong with me... I'm sorry for not acting intrested."

His reply pissed Rongrong off as it was confirming that he was indeed not intrested in talking to her at all.

In fact she could see that his attention was entirely not even on her and instead on the pair in front of her.

"Hmph, you'll regret ignoring me!" Rongrong pouted again and stormed to the front of the group.

After Rongrong left, Bohai was staring at the pair in front of him even more intently.

Slowly as he got closer and closer to the pair, his nose started wrinkling as if he was sniffing a scent.

Eventually the pair took notice of Bohai's strange behavior and turned to him.

The boy asked, "do you want something?"

Bohai stopped. He looked at the boy for a good while then turned to the girl who was clinging to his arm tightly.

His eyes gleamed as he stared at the girl, in fact he was even a little excited.

The boy noticed Bohai's behaviour and immediatly stepped up and completely blocked the girl from his view.

With a frown the boy asked again, "what do you want?"

"Yes, let's be comrades! we can become gods together!"

"What?" the boy was surprised by the sudden proposal.

After a short and awkward silence, he replied, "sure, I'm not sure about becoming gods but let's be friends. My names Tang San, this is my younger sister Xiao Wu."

"friends?" Bohai questioned then turned his head towards Xiao Wu, "Alright..."

"We're here, this is the final exam. This is a combat test and you're all to face me one..."

Mu Bai said but there was a clear uneasiness in his voice, especially when he looked over at Bohai.

Fortunately for him a boisterous voice interrupted him and saved him from his dilemma.

"Keke, change of plans! for this final exam you all must face me!"

"Teacher Zhou?! isn't this against the rules? what if the principle finds out?"

"The principals away right now, while he's gone I'm in charge!"

"But..."

"No buts, all of you can attack me together and you only have to last till this hourglass runs out!"

Helpless about the circumstances, Mu Bai sighed helplessly and looked at the group of new students in pity.

"You guys are in trouble."

Seeing Mu Bai's serious expression, Tang San asked, "What level's the vice principle?"

"... Level 76 spirit saint." Mu Bai answered solemnly.
