World Of Beasts: I Can See Their Hidden Stats! Chapter 38

Chapter 38: The Return Of The Terrifying Talent

“7-star bronze, pa.s.s.”

“6-star bronze, pa.s.s.”

“5-star bronze, fail.”

The examiner’s voice rang out from time to time.

Every time it rang out, some people were happy, while others were worried.

The students who failed left the team dejectedly, while the students who pa.s.sed stood quietly at the side, watching the other people’s a.s.sessment.

“Silver-tier! Quick, look! Is that a silver-tier I see?”

“Oh my G.o.d, it really is a silver-tier, and it takes up two-tenths of the pillar!”

“It really is two-tenths! Doesn’t that mean that he’s already a silver-tier Beastmaster?”

The students who were taking the a.s.sessment cried out in surprise when they saw the light on the stage.

It was as if they had seen something incredible.

Of course, this was indeed something incredible.

This was because most of the students present were bronze-tier Beastmasters.

It would take them at least a year to reach the level of silver-tier.

They did not expect that there would be someone among their peers who had already reached silver-tier.

How could they remain calm?

After all, a genius was a genius. They were leagues apart from the common folk.

The examiners were visibly shocked as well.

They had not expected a silver-tier student to appear.

“2-stars silver-tier, pa.s.sed.”

Although the examiner was shocked, he did not forget his duty.

“Who’s that woman? I noticed that she was quite impressive in the a.s.sessments earlier as well. Is she from a wealthy family?”

“You don’t know her? She’s from the wealthiest family in Fire City, she’s Alice!”

The students below the stage discussed the genius-level figure amongst themselves.

“I remember now. She’s that monster with a rank 5 apt.i.tude!”

“As expected of a genius from a big family. She’s really powerful.”

The discussion below the stage continued without without any signs of stopping.

“Tch, a genius from a big family is nothing. Take away their wealth and see what happens.”

“The truly amazing one is that Locke person. Despite coming from an ordinary family like us, he’s in no way inferior to Alice. Heck, he might be even better than her.”

A student who seemed to be from an ordinary family spoke up for Locke.

On the platform, Alice seemed to hear the boy’s comment.

She looked at Locke.

At the same time, Locke was also looking at her.

Their eyes met.

Alice’s eyes were full of provocation, as if to show Locke that she refused to admit defeat.

It was as if she were telling him, “I am stronger than you, and you can never surpa.s.s me.”

On the other hand, Locke was looking at her in confusion.

He was perplexed.

‘Why is this woman looking at me with so much anger?’

‘I’ve never even provoked her. This is weird.’

The little episode was soon over.

The test was still in full swing.

Soon, it was time for Locke to go on stage.

When Alice spotted Locke heading up, she waved her small fist at him.

It was as if he was showing off to Locke. ‘So what if you were talented?’

‘I don’t believe you’re superior to me. I have a huge family backing me up.’

‘You’re just a small commoner. What right do you have to challenge me?’

Locke looked at Alice’s eyes, and he finally understood how she felt.

This made Locke a little mad.

Back when he was on Earth, he had been harmed by the wealthy as well.

As such, he had never liked the wealthy families ever since he came to this world.

However, upon seeing Alice’s provocation, it not only made him angry, it also gave him determination.

It gave him the determination to reveal his full strength in the a.s.sessment.

He wanted to let those so-called aristocrats see that the strength of commoners was also very strong.

They were not weaker than their so-called families.

He wanted to give those so-called aristocrats a hard slap across the face.

Locke stood in front of the pillar.

He closed his eyes.

He tried his best to feel the presence of his mana core.

The mana core quickly revolved, and a huge amount of mana surged out.

Locke used all his strength to punch the pillar.

The pillar lit up.

It glowed with a silver light, and the height of the light column continuously increased.

“Two-tenths, three-tenths, it still hasn’t stopped!

“Am I dreaming today? What’s wrong with this world?”

“My G.o.d, this is too crazy. Why are there so many geniuses?”

“That’s right. How are we commoners supposed to live with this?”

Everyone looked at the pillar on the stage in surprise while chattering non-stop.

They were not as surprised as before.

When they saw Locke walk onto the stage, they seemed to have already determined that Locke was a silver-tier beastmaster.

Thus, when they saw Locke light up with a silver-tier light, they were not too surprised. They were already mentally prepared.

Soon.

The dazzling light stopped at four-tenths of the pillar.

“4-star silver-tier, you’ve pa.s.sed.”

The examiner’s voice was trembling. He was also shocked by Locke.

The instructors from the Federation’s Advanced Beastmaster Academy who were observing the test from afar were also shocked by Locke’s performance.

4-star silver-tier.

This was considered to be genius-level talent, even within the Federation’s recruitment scope.

They did not expect to meet one.

They had originally thought that they would not be able to recruit any geniuses upon being sent to Fire City.

However, upon Locke’s appearance, the two instructors could not keep their excitement in check.

‘It looks like this trip wasn’t in vain.’

“This young man called Locke is pretty good.”

“If he performs well in the future, he might even be able to enter the gold-tier.”

Trista said to the other instructor with a delighted smile.

“Yes.”

“This is indeed a pleasant surprise for the two of us.”

“I thought that it would be good enough to recruit a few young geniuses who can enter the silver cla.s.s after coming to Fire City.”

“I didn’t expect that the two of us to strike gold instead.”

Jacques was in a good mood.

In contrast to the responses of the audience, Locke seemed to be out of sorts. He seemed to be a little depressed as he walked down the test platform.

‘What’s going on?’

‘I didn’t expect that my mana level is only at the 4-star silver-tier.’

‘This isn’t what I’ve envisioned.’

Locke lowered his head, his face full of unhappiness.

If any of the other students were to know of Locke’s dissatisfaction…

They would probably join forces and give him a beating.

They would shout at him, “You can act cool if you want, but keep it in moderation!”

“You’re making the rest of us look bad!”
