Chapter 94: Mental Fortitude Test!

As for his affinity to space and time magic, this element affinity crystal didn't have the ability to detect or determine such special talent. Furthermore, the world didn't have the technology to determine special abilities. Although special ability users can advance and become "Ability Manipulator" nonetheless, it will be hard to get guidance on their special abilities. They will have to train and unearth the various ways to manipulate ability.

"Next student" Bai Long announced.

"Hu" The students jolted awake, let out a breath that they didn't realize they were holding.

The testing continued until all the students of the class were tested. Impressively, Jayden had a 6-star talent for magic power sensitivity and a 7-star affinity to the element of Wood.

The students all chatted with each other, some excited about the next round of tests while the others talked about Jayden, Misha, Fatty Liam, Marvin, and Leonard. These five students had the best talent in the entire class.

Their chitter-chatter quickly stopped as soon as Bai Long stored the Mana Affinity and Elemental Affinity Crystals in his storage ring.

"Alright, it's time for us to head to the next examination zone! Those with a 3-star talent and above for mana sensitivity pack whatever you consider important and please come to the front of the class, if you want to relieve yourself then now is the time. You only got five minutes so you better hurry up." Bai Long said with a smile after the testing finished.

He was happy to find several talented youths in this class. In the future, he will be able to receive some benefits from the four great magic academies if any of them join the academy.

The students were given five minutes to do whatever they want to do. Those who have eaten and drank a lot went to the bathroom went to do something obvious while the others were waiting in the classroom. The rest of them walked to the front of the class where Bai Long was standing.

"Will a levitating bus comes to pick us and deliver us to the next examination area? What is the second testing round going to be like?" Fatty Liam said while standing beside Marvin.

Marvin was just as mystified as Fatty. He didn't know anything about the upcoming test or how they will reach there.

"I don't know where the next examination area is going be and who knows, maybe we will get teleported there or use something unique to get there since Teacher Bai Long is taking us," Marvin replied as Jayden and Leonard walked to their side.

"Hey, we don't know what the next exam is going to be like but if it requires teamwork then let's work together," Jayden said, he and Leonard wanted to team up with Marvin in case the next exam requires it.

"We will think about it," Fatty Liam replied in place of Marvin, who calmly nodded, accepting his decision.

"Then, I hope you will consider joining us," Leonard said.

Soon after, all the students who meet the requirements were standing at the front of the class.

"I will be sending you all away!"

As soon as Bai Long said that, his eyes and hands released bright purple shine, and he then waved his sleeve and several portals were created. Their other end showed a completely different zone.

'Oh, a space manipulator, what a rare sight. He might be as powerful as my grandfather,' Fatty Liam thought just as portals suddenly appeared out of thin air.

"Wow!"

"Amazing!"

Seeing the portals connected to another place surprised many students and they couldn't help but exclaim in astonishment and chat mindlessly.

"So this is the powers of an expert at the realm of ability manipulation," Marvin said under his breath. He determined that Bai Long has manipulated space to create these portals.

"Don't be amazed. I am a space manipulator and portal creation is just one of my abilities. In the future, you will all become manipulators of your abilities by working hard for your future. The next test will truly determine your worth so don't hesitate to give it your best. Now enter the portal." Bai Long encouraged the students.

"Yes, Professor!"

"Let us set off,"

Everyone nodded and walked forward. The hot-blooded youths were the first ones that entered the portal and got teleported to the next examination zone.

"You were right, we indeed are going to be teleported to the second exam." Fatty Liam said.

"Just a lucky guess," Marvin replied before they entered the portal.

"Let's go,"

Following behind, Leonard and Jayden also jumped inside the portal.

The next second they were teleported to a sandy area with a massive ocean on the left and various mountains on the right. This place seemed like a vacation island. There were various wide and ancients trees on the side of the mountain while a lot of round and smooth rocks were everywhere. Many people sat on them in the lotus position as they meditated to absorb the magic power in the surrounding and purify it from impurities.

When Marvin and his group arrived, there were already many people there. Most of them were students from the same class while others were wearing uniforms of the four great academies. Each one had a different insignia and distinct uniform.

However, as this was Marvin's first time coming in contact with the students from the four great academies, he wasn't able to distinguish them by their uniforms.

"Do you know what academies these students belong to?"

"The ones with the seven-colored insignia belongs to the Seven Element Academy. Those with the blank insignia are students of the Neon Great academy. The sword type insignia represent the Great Knight Academy while the insignia shaped like a shield with four chains belongs to the Demon Hunting Academy." Fatty Liam explained to Marvin, who curiously stared about the surrounding. "I think that woman there is going to be our examiner."

Marvin looked where Fatty Liam pointed and he saw a beautiful and slender ebony woman dressed in a special suit and by her side were multiple military personnel. Her black hair fluttered as the sea wind blew in from the sea while she focused calmly on the tablet held in her petite hands. This woman's gorgeous face was extremely dazzling and many eyes fell on her. She repeatedly stared at the students and the tablet. Once she had made sure that everyone was present, she looked up at the group and started to speak.

"Hi everyone! My name is Cecilia, and I the one in charge of your second exam. Your task is to comprehend one of the energy evolving techniques that are carved on the various stone walls found on this island, honestly, this exam is pretty simple, and it will be testing your mental fortitude. The fastest ones to comprehend the energy evolving technique craved on the stone walls will receive a unique magic power sensitivity increasing elixir that increases the sensitivity of a person by 10%. There are only three elixirs so only the top three will get them! I must warn you do not disturb the seniors meditating on this island otherwise it won't end up good for you," Cecilia announced with a sweet smile on her gorgeous face. "There are seals placed on your body in the shape of a wristband. After you learn an energy evolving technique, the seal will break, and you won't be able to learn any other technique from this place. So be careful with your choices. Haste makes waste!"

Hearing her words, the students looked at their wrist and saw a purplish tattoo. The number 5 H was written in the center.

"You guys have five hours to learn an energy evolving technique. Good Luck!"

The students were brimming with excitement.

"I heard a single Sensitivity increasing elixir cost a fortune."

"Yeah, it's one of the rarest elixirs in existence as it directly increases a person's talent. Only one can be taken but it's hard to come by such an elixir. Anyway, the energy evolving techniques are equally precious.

"Let's head to the mountain region!"

The students gently exclaimed before running towards the mentioned place. There were a lot of stone walls near the mountain regions. They were all carved with writing and images. All of these were energy evolving technique.

"Bro, I won't be holding back, and get there before everyone else," Fatty Liam said before he utilized his rank-10 powers to make a run to the mountain region. However, he had to limit his flame powers as to not disturb the students meditating in the surrounding.

Marvin used spatial step to catch up to him.

"Fatty, you are pretty slow, at this rate, we will have a winner among us before we two even reach the mountain region. I will give you a helping hand." Marvin teasingly said before he utilized magic empowered martial arts to empower his physical strength.

"Sure," Fatty Liam nodded and Marvin grabbed Liam's hands.

Utilizing a few ghost steps, Marvin and the dizzy Fatty Liam ran past the rest of the students at an incredible speed.

"Is that a ghost?"

"Ahhh!

"This island is haunted!"

"Let's stick together! We will fight back in case the ghosts try to haunt us!"

The students thought as they saw blurry figures flashing past them.

After a few moments, Marvin and Fatty Liam reached the mountain regions with various walls with many carvings. They looked over and saw lines of words on each of them

"Rain energy evolving Manual. Low-rank. Can only be utilized during rain. Purify Magic Power into higher grade energy called Water Mana at an incredibly slow speed." Fatty Liam murmured as he looked at the wall. "A disappointing Meditation technique. Since I have a flame ability it will be best to comprehend a flame type energy evolving manual."

"Yeah, that's why Cecilia said Haste makes waste," Marvin replied before gazing at the walls with eyes of scrutiny. "There are only low-rank meditation techniques on the walls here, I think there will be better meditation techniques but we will need to head deeper into the mountain region."

"Bro, your talent is already great, and I don't mind letting go of a unique elixir to learn a high-rank meditation technique suitable for my ability."

Liam wanted to give it a try and head inside. They had around 5 hours left, after all.

"Then, I guess it's decided."

Marvin replied before they ventured deeper into the mountain range.

The students could sit down to comprehend low-rank energy evolving techniques to win the unique elixir to increase their talent, but they would be wasting a once in a lifetime chance of comprehending a high-rank energy evolving technique.

Energy Evolving techniques were used to filter the impurities present in magic power. Once impurities are released from magic power, it evolves into a higher state of energy called "Mana". The amount of impurities entering the mana channels can also cause some trouble for ability users. Thus, a certain amount of magic power must be purified into mana by using an energy evolving technique, otherwise, complications may arise.

Some energy evolving technique like the rain energy evolving manual can give a unique characteristic to the purified version of Magic Power. However, these energy evolving techniques can only purify magic power into Mana with unique traits under special circumstances.

Thankfully, the four great academies had decided to let the talented ones learn them. Otherwise, students like Marvin will have to enter the Academy before receiving an energy evolving technique. This way, they will owe them a favor. Furthermore, the talented ones will be able to contribute to the human race faster.

Because Marvin and Fatty Liam had heard about these energy evolving techniques, they know how precious it is. They chose to go for the best ones, and as Marvin thought, the deeper into the mountain region they got the higher rank of the energy evolving techniques carved on the stone walls.
