Chapter 8-Assessment

World's Academy…

The most famous and prestigious school that has produced thousands of geniuses and powerhouses.

The academy that everyone dreams of enrolling in; it is renowned for its excellence in teaching and guidance.

Founded by many 9-star level powerhouses, it is respected by numerous empires and clans.

…...............

Many teenagers were lining up at the gate of the Academy, their excitement evident on their faces.

Many of them wore fancy and gorgeous clothes, while others wore ordinary attire.

Some were showing off in the crowd, while others tried to befriend others to gain favor.

Carriages from royal families and prestigious sons and daughters of wealthy families arrived one after another.

Those with invitations didn't need to go through the assessment and already had their spots secured in the academy.

It is rare for the academy to issue invitations, so only a few, like Dwight, received them.

Even some wealthy kids from other families didn't have the right to receive an invitation unless they were exceptional geniuses.

Suddenly, a woman in a black uniform appeared at the gate and spoke out, "Silence!"

The noise and chatter abruptly stopped as everyone's attention shifted to the woman.

"I am the Vice President of the Student Council, and I will be overseeing the assessment."

"We only have one assessment, and it is quite simple."

She clapped her hands, and the guards brought forward a black orb for everyone to see.

"This orb was created by one of the founders. It can identify your talent based on the color that appears when you touch it."

"Gold, White, Violet, Silver, Blue, Green, Orange, Yellow."

"These are the colors that might appear, with Gold being the highest and Yellow indicating your talent is inadequate."

"We only accept Blue and above, as the academy does not admit those with Yellow talent."

"Now, form a line, and we'll start the assessment."

Everyone immediately formed a line and began the assessment.

Some were excited, and confident in their talents, while others were nervous, unsure if they would pass the test.

"Yellow, failed."

"Next."

"Yellow, failed."

"Next."

"Green, failed."

"Next."

"Green, failed."

"Next."

"Orange, failed."

"Next."

"Blue, passed."

"Next."

"Blue, passed."

"Next."

The assessment continued, with many left dismayed as their talents were insufficient for admission, while some cheered and celebrated their success.

"Silver, passed."

Suddenly, everyone turned to look at the tall, muscular young man undergoing the assessment. He had the highest talent anyone had seen that day.

The young man looked at everyone with disdain and proudly displayed his muscles.

He then entered the gate, and the next teenager to be assessed was a thin man in ordinary clothes.

He placed his hands on the orb, and it immediately shone with a Violet color.

"Violet, passed."

Everyone was amazed, and the leaders from other departments who were secretly observing the assessment had already taken notice of the thin man.

The man silently entered the gate as if nothing extraordinary had happened.

The discussion heated up as the assessment continued.

Many young teenagers passed, and among them, a few showed Silver and even Violet colors. So far, only 10 have revealed a Violet color.

"White, passed."

"Wow"

Everyone was shocked and saw a beautiful woman with long red hair and a royal insignia on her clothes.

Everyone recognizes the insignia as it represents the Fire Empire, and the one who shows white talent is the princess of the Fire Empire, Lilia.

She looked gorgeous in her red clothes, and everyone couldn't help but stare at her.

She walked inside the gate coldly, but everyone felt admiration towards her; based on the talent she had, her future was limitless.

Actually, she had an invitation, but she was curious about what color would appear when she touched the orb, so she decided to try it.

She didn't want to show off, but she was just curious and was satisfied with the result.

She knew that getting gold was impossible for her, and there were only 3 people in history who had gold talent: one of them was the President of the World's Academy.

The other is the Ancestor of the Starlight Clan, and the other one is the notorious killer and leader of the Demonic Sect.

.....

The assessment continued for hours, and 200 teenagers passed while thousands failed.

As the assessment was ongoing, a beautiful and majestic carriage appeared, pulled by shining, golden horses.

There was a sword logo on the carriage, recognized as belonging to the strongest clan in the entire world, the Starlight Clan.

The Starlight Clan had many branches all over the world, and all of them were top-tier in terms of wealth and strength.

They had many businesses and organizations, so many admired and feared this clan.

Everyone immediately backed off to give way, and they saw the carriage was being driven by an old man wearing the uniform of a professor of the World's Academy.

The carriage stopped at the gate, and the female leading the assessment immediately came forward and bowed to the old man.

"Prof. Donald"

The other members behind her also bowed, as Professor Donald was highly respected in the academy and was one of the board members aside from being a professor.

Donald nodded and replied, "I was assigned to guide the youngest child of Master David to the academy. Since my job is finished, you take care of him for now."

After that, he immediately disappeared in front of the crowd.

The vice president of the student council nodded and then looked at the carriage.

She had heard the rumors about the youngest son of the Clan Leader of the Starlight Clan but didn't care about them.

Suddenly, the carriage opened, and a beautiful woman in maid's clothes got out of the carriage.

The boy's eyes lit up, but they were stunned when a handsome man with long black hair and eyes appeared next to her.

His face was so handsome that they felt ashamed to look at him. On the other hand, the other females blushed and were stunned by his handsomeness.

They recognized him as Dwight from the Starlight Clan. His image was circulating everywhere, and many girls dreamed of seeing him or being noticed by him.

"Wow, it's my crush"

"Shit, where's my makeup? Bring it to me!"

"Shit, my heart is melting"

"Wow, he is so handsome in person"

Voices of many young ladies could be heard everywhere, and the place suddenly turned chaotic.

Everyone was stunned as they didn't expect Dwight's appearance to cause the ladies to cheer up.

The young boys were stunned and felt jealous of Dwight, but they knew they could not afford to offend him.

"Quiet"

The vice president of the student council shouted, but she was also stunned to see his handsome face.

She immediately cleared her thoughts and tried to maintain her calmness.

Dwight scanned his surroundings and ignored everyone. He was a bit amazed by the structure of the academy.

He saw that the density of spiritual energy was high here because there was a formation in the academy.

He didn't care about the beautiful lady in front of him and immediately commanded Tessa to walk with him.

"Let's go"

He walked inside the gate with Tessa, and the vice president felt disrespected by his attitude.

She wanted to reprimand him but would do it after he officially became a student of the academy, not now.

"Hmmp"

She decided to let it pass for now, but everyone suddenly heard a voice.

"As expected of the useless and unmotivated brat, why don't you try to place your hands on the orb rather than just entering the gate?"

Everyone was stunned, and Dwight looked at the source of the voice and saw that it was the princess of the Fire Empire, Lilia.

She was still angry when she remembered how he acted toward her at the party.

Dwight was really confused about why she seemed to hate him so much, even though he had never really interacted with her many times.

He only met her at the party, so he couldn't understand why she seemed to hold a grudge against him.

"Stop being an attention-seeking bitch"

Tessa said, not wanting someone to disrespect Dwight.

She didn't care about her status as she would fight to the death with anyone who slandered or tried to harm Dwight.

Everyone was stunned by their conversation, and Lilia was angry at her and wanted to retort, but she suddenly heard Dwight say, "I never really paid you any attention, and I don't know why you hate me that much."

Dwight patted Tessa's shoulder and then walked toward the orb.

"But I like shaming people if they disrespect me."

He put his hands on the orb, and everyone's attention was on him.

Dwight looked at the vice president of the student council and said, "What if it explodes? Will you blame that lame princess for challenging me?"

The woman was stunned and replied, "It's impossible for the orb to explode, and if it really happens, it's her fault for challenging you because you already had an invitation and didn't need to go through the assessment."

She didn't believe that Dwight could make the orb explode as it was created by one of the founders of the academy.

Lilia was stunned by his words and wanted to say something, but the orb suddenly showed colors.

It shone from yellow to green, then turned into blue. It didn't stop as the color changed from silver to white, then gold.

Everyone was stunned, and those watching from the shadows were also stunned.

"As expected of David's son"

An old man watching from afar murmured and smiled.

Everyone was amazed when it turned into gold, and Lilia's face turned red; she felt ashamed to face him.

'How is this possible?'

She had taunted him, but his talent was not something she expected.

It was gold, and those with gold talent are destined to be great figures in the future if there are no accidents.

She felt scared thinking about it.

"Look, it's still not stopping."

Everyone saw that the golden color suddenly turned black, and a crack began to form.

Crack!

The Vice President of the student council was stunned and wanted to stop him, but it was too late as it suddenly exploded.

Boom!
