Mythical Era: My Electric Eel Clone Can Evolve Infinitely Chapter 5

Talent Test

The first boy sitting in the first row walked to the podium under everyone's gaze.

He put his arm into the vitality testing machine with a confident look on his face.

As the arm tube tightened its grip on his arm, a mechanical voice sounded after a few seconds.

“Vitality, fifteen points.”

“Wow, he actually has fifteen points. No wonder this kid is so calm!”

“He should have cultivated some basic cultivation techniques or taken some vitality supplements. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to reach fifteen points!”

“That's right…”

Some of the more knowledgeable students immediately saw through this student's situation.

Even Chu Lingjun could not help but nod slightly. 15 Vitality was considered high.

A normal person's vitality was around 10 points, but the trained soldiers in the army could reach 20 points, which was twice that of a normal person.

This student was only 16 years old at the moment. He was a freshman in Grade One and was still growing. He had 5 more vitality points than an ordinary person. In other words, his physical fitness was half that of an ordinary person!

Either he had eaten some Vitality tonic or, like Chu Lingjun, he received a cultivation technique imparted by his father in advance.

Many of the students had looks of envy, jealousy, and fear on their faces. Whether it was taking supplements or cultivating some foundation cultivation techniques in advance, it was not easy for people with poor family backgrounds to obtain them.

The reason for their fear was simple. The higher the vitality, the greater strength, faster speed, and better fighting skills they would have!

He etched the kid's face into his mind. This was someone he had to be careful of in future fights.

The homeroom teacher, Shen Yanhu, nodded. He seemed to have seen too many things and did not have much of a reaction. He said indifferently, “Drop a drop of blood on the superstone.”

As he spoke, he took out a box of silver needles and a bottle of disinfectant from his backpack. “Everyone, use disinfectant to disinfect the wound before inserting it to prevent infection.”

“Yes, sir!”

The boy used disinfectant to disinfect the wound, and then the silver needle was inserted into his fingertip.

A drop of blood dripped onto the superstone. After waiting for a while, there was no reaction.

“You haven't awakened your superpower yet. Next.”

“Yes.”

The boy nodded and walked off the podium with a slightly disappointed expression.

According to the statistics of the National Bureau of Education, the probability of a superpower awakening was around 10 percent, which meant that one out of ten students could have a superpower.

There were 50 students in Grade One — Class Four. Based on the probability, there should be five students with superpowers.

Everyone could practice martial arts, but the awakening of superpowers depended on the will of heaven.

The prime time for the awakening of superpowers was usually between the ages of 16 to 18.

Even those who had yet to awaken could be tested in advance through the blood test of the superstone. The school would then send someone to enhance their superpower.

The accuracy of the superstone was about 95 percent correct most times.

Shen Yanhu's choice of words was more cautious. He used the word temporarily because if the person behind him was lucky, he still had a chance to awaken.

After the first person was tested, the second person was next.

The second student's vitality was 11 points, which was within the range of a normal person. The superstone did not react.

Next was the third, the fourth…

Chu Lingjun watched quietly. Most of the students were in the range of an average person. Their vitality values fluctuate around ten points.

The more obvious ones were those with nine or eight Vitality points. They were all students with tanned faces and poor family backgrounds.

When it came to the thirteenth student, the first superpower student was born.

It was a girl with nine vitality points. When a drop of blood fell on the stone, the stone, which had been silent all this time, emitted a gentle green light.

A small sapling phantom grew out of the superstone. It was green and intimidating.

Shen Yanhu's eyes lit up .”Not bad, congratulations Lin Yin, you have awakened your wood power.”

In this world with spiritual energy and mutated beasts, there were countless kinds of superpowers.

According to the way superpowers were expressed, superpowers were divided into five categories — Spell Domain, Battle Domain, Perception Domain, Psionic Domain, and Mystery Domain.

[Spell Domain: Fire, ice, lightning, wind, force field, and other powers.]

[Battle Domain: Physical strengthening, attack techniques, movement ability and so forth.]

[Perception Domain: Strengthening and analysis of vision, hearing, smell, and other aspects.]

[Psionic Domain: The ability to control weapons and machinery, such as sniper mastery, machine gun control, aircraft piloting and so forth]

[Mystical Domain: It refers to the collection of luck, divination, summoning, and other abilities.]

Many abilities that cannot be clearly categorized are also included in this category.

This was a popular international classification method.

Because many of the abilities of the Battle Domain and the Perception Domain were highly similar to that of a fighter, many people classified fighters as people with superpowers of the Battle Domain and the Perception Domain.

However, this suggestion was rejected by many martial artists.

Every martial artist could cultivate only to a certain level. It was important to note that man could conquer nature. Every bit of cultivation meant a bit of harvest. There were all kinds of possibilities.

On the other hand, espers, who were known as people with superpowers, relied on the heavens to survive. Their abilities were given by the heavens and were not obtained through hard work.

It was an insult to them to classify martial artists as espers.

Each went forward to take the test. Soon, a tall boy walked up to the podium. He raised his head slightly, and his face emitted a confident light.

It was Ding Peng, the candidate for class monitor that everyone had been discussing.

“Vitality, 29 points.”

A cold mechanical voice sounded, and the entire class immediately hissed and sucked in a breath of cold air!

29 points?!

Ding Peng had yet to officially cultivate, but his vitality had already reached 29 points. His physical fitness was three times that of an ordinary person!

Chu Lingjun also smiled bitterly. His vitality was only 7 points, which was less than a quarter of the other child.

Even the homeroom teacher, Shen Yanhu, was slightly shocked. He looked at Ding Peng with satisfaction and said, “Good job.. Drop a drop of blood on the Superstone.”

“Okay.”

Ding Peng's mouth was bright as he casually dripped a drop of blood on the Super Stone.

There was no reaction from the stone.

Ding Peng didn't even look at the superstone, as if he already knew the result.

A single superstone was worth hundreds of thousands, but for Ding Peng's family, it was only a slightly more expensive item. His parents had long bought it and tested it dozens of times for him.

The test continued. Next, a few students with good vitality values appeared. They had more than ten points. However, in front of Ding Peng's 29 points, they were really not enough.

There were also two students with superpowers. One had infrared vision, and the other had strength enhancement.

While the test came to the middle and later stages, another genius female student went on stage, it once again attracted everyone's attention.

The female student's skin was fair, and her facial features were exquisite. Her eyebrows were slightly raised, and she looked like she had a heroic spirit.

This person was Chen Zhiqi, who had once won the swordsmanship competition.

Chu Lingjun had also noticed Chen Zhiqi just now because when this woman entered the class, she was carrying a large sword case on her back.

At first, Chu Lingjun was a little surprised. He thought that this woman had brought a weapon to school in broad daylight for fun.

It was only when she opened it that he realized that she was carrying a wooden sword.

Chen Zhiqi walked up to the podium and did the test.

“Vitality, 23 points.”

With Ding Peng's score, everyone was not as surprised as before. Instead, they felt that this value was very reasonable.

Due to the natural physiological structure of men and women, it was normal for girls to have lower vitality points than boys.

“Drop a drop of blood on the superstone.” Shen Yanhu nodded.

“Okay.”

Blood fell, but the superstone did not react.

“Next.” Shen Yanhu said in a good mood.

In the past, there was only one top student in his class, but this year, there were two. This made him very satisfied.

The students came and went. Finally, it was Chu Lingjun's turn.
