Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Rrriiiingg!!!

As soon as the bell rang, students from every corner of the campus rushed to their classes.

Su Ranran, who had just left with her form teacher, had also returned.

As her deskmate, he naturally had to show some concern when she was suddenly called away by the form teacher. “Why did the teacher suddenly call you over?”

“The teacher wanted to ask me which school I want to apply to, but I haven’t decided yet.”

“You have a Double S-rank talent,” Ling Feng said casually. you should be able to go to any of the top ten schools.

Su Ranran shook her head. “You can’t be proud just because of the talent test. There are still three months to go before the college entrance examination.”

Hearing Su Ranran’s words, Ling Feng nodded his head. He had to admit that she was not only modest but also cautious. Although she was particularly good at being a teacher in front of him, with her character and talent, her future achievements were limitless.

The form teacher on the podium knocked on the table.

“Quieten down!”

It was only then that the entire class retracted their thoughts. Everyone’s eyes were focused on the form teacher.

“First of all, let’s give Su Ranran a round of warm applause for awakening the SS-rank talent, Thunderlord’s Descent!

Clap! Clap! Clap!

Thunderous applause rang out.

“Other than Su Ranran, let’s give a round of applause to Fang Yuntian, who has awakened the A-rank talent, Diamond Physique.

The crowd applauded again.

“Other than these two students, look at your talents. What do you all have? He’s the worst student I’ve ever taught!”

“However, don’t be disheartened and give up on yourselves. There are still many opportunities in the future. Even if your talents are low, as long as you work hard, you will have the opportunity to reach the top one day!”

“Everyone, don’t think that I’m comforting you or joking. In history, there are precedents. The most recent one is our country’s sword-immortal senior, Zhang Qinghai. He once had a B-rank talent, Sword Mastery, and after several transformations, he became an SS-rank Sword Intent godly talent, becoming the pillar of the country!

“Therefore, as long as you don’t give up on yourself, your future will definitely be bright!

Students who originally felt that their talent was low and that they had no hope at all were now as if they had been injected with chicken blood. Their blood was boiled, and they had already begun to fantasize about their own position in the world.

“Now that all of you have awakened your innate talents, it’s time for you to start learning how to meditate!” the form teacher continued.

“The meditation technique is not as complicated as you think. As long as a human has awakened their talent, they can learn it. However, distracting thoughts must be removed during meditation.

“Follow me. Close your eyes and visualize the world. Try your best to communicate with your awakened talent and absorb the countless bright spots that you’re seeing now.

“This is the complete meditation technique.”

For those who had awakened their talents, practicing meditation techniques was an innate ability, and it was not complicated.

Ling Feng had also closed his eyes at this moment. Everything was pitch black in front of him, but he was not in a hurry. He tried his best to communicate with his innate ability, and soon, countless small flashes of light appeared in the pitch-black world in front of him.

After sensing the light spots, he immediately wanted to capture them. However, the light spots seemed to have a life of their own and were extremely cunning. Before he could even get close, the light spots had already avoided him. No matter how fast he was, the light spots would always be able to escape.

This repeated countless times, but the situation did not change at all.

The dot of light was right in front of him, but he could forget about catching it.

Ling Feng could not help but feel a little frustrated after failing so many times. He opened his eyes helplessly and was surprised to find that most of his classmates were in the same situation as him. They all had difficult expressions on their faces, but there was one exception in this group, and that was his deskmate, Su Ranran.

Not only did she not show any signs of frustration, but Ling Feng could also even see a smile on her relaxed face.

Was this the benefit of talent? Su Ranran was very talented, so her cultivation was not as difficult as those who were less talented.

Shaking his head helplessly, Ling Feng immediately closed his eyes again and began the second round of testing.

This time, with his previous experience, he wouldn’t attack immediately. Instead, he would use a strategy and ambush.

As expected, not all of the light spots escaped, and he caught a part of them.

After improving his attack method a few times, Ling Feng became more and more relaxed. However, his speed was still lacking, and after those light spots knew that Ling Feng could capture them, they all stayed far away and would not approach on their own initiative.

However, as the light dot slowly captured him, Ling Feng clearly felt the changes in his body.

Although it was only a slight change, it was a sign of becoming stronger. As long as he was on the path to becoming stronger, he would enjoy it and be fascinated.

He was also immersed in the process of absorbing the light spots, and the pain gradually turned into enjoyment.

An hour passed, and the form teacher’s voice finally rang in his ears.

“Alright, you can all stop now.”

When the students heard this, they opened their eyes one by one, and their mouths naturally began to move.

“It’s too difficult. Those spots of light are so cunning. Even if we try dozens of times, we might only succeed once.”

“What’s a few dozen times? I’ve tried hundreds of times.”

“Only those with high talent will be favored by the light spots. With just the two of you, one with F-rank talent and one with C-rank talent, do you think you can succeed in one try? ”

“…”

Hearing this, the people sitting in front and behind Fang Yuntian looked at him and asked about his situation, “Fang Yuntian, you have A-rank talent. How are you?”

“Just 30 to 40 light spots. It’s not worth mentioning.” Although these words were very humble, Fang Yuntian’s expression could not hide the pride on his face.

He emphasized the word “thirty to forty,” but even so, Su Ranran still did not look at him. As he spoke to the people around him, his eyes would occasionally glance in her direction. Seeing Su Ranran chatting with Ling Feng, his mood became even worse.

Oh my God, I have a B-rank talent, and I only absorbed seven or eight. You, with your A-rank talent, actually absorbed thirty to forty…” When the people beside him heard this, they immediately cried out in shock. They looked at Fang Yuntian with envy. The difference in talent was too great.

“You already have seven or eight, I only have three. One hand isn’t enough.”

Ling Feng’s side.

“How was it? How many light spots did you absorb?” Su Ranran asked Ling Feng immediately.

Ling Feng thought for a moment, then said, “Forty-three, I guess!”

Su Ranran was surprised. “Didn’t you awaken a B-rank talent?” she asked. Why are there so many more than A-ranked?”

She was very talented, so her teacher had already explained to her in advance that during her first cultivation, a B-rank talent would usually only absorb 10 to 20 light spots. A-level talents would have 20 to 45 light spots.

If talent was calculated according to the absorption rate of the light spots, then Ling Feng’s talent was definitely A-rank, and it was the top.

“I don’t know. Maybe I’ve been gifted since I was young,” Ling Feng replied with a smile.

In fact, the reason why he had absorbed more than Fang Yuntian was entirely because of his experience in the undead mystic realm. In addition to the system’s upgrade, his talent was not B-rank, but B+.

Under such a dual effect, Ling Feng’s absorption rate of the light spots naturally became higher.

“How about you?” Ling Feng asked.

Su Ranran said nonchalantly, “More than 300!”

What?

He seemed to have heard wrong.

“More than 300 light spots?”

“Yes!” Su Ranran nodded and said with certainty.

This time, Ling Feng became depressed. In his heart, he was constantly complaining that he had only absorbed 40 or so light spots, and he was secretly surprised. “You absorbed more than 300, so much more than me. What are you surprised by?”

Ling Feng had to admit that at this moment, he was once again shocked by the matter of his talent.

Seeing Ling Feng in this state, Su Ranran immediately consoled him, “Although talent determines a person’s starting point, the road ahead still requires more perseverance and perseverance. There are many geniuses that waste their talents, and even more who are not talented and rely on their own efforts to get to where they want to be.

“You have to believe that as long as you live and work hard, you will have different opportunities.

“As long as you’re alive, there will be infinite possibilities!”

At this moment, Su Ranran’s literature on positive energy was at stake. Ling Feng didn’t want to pretend any longer, but he still nodded in agreement.

“As long as you’re alive, there will be infinite possibilities.”

“It is! Life is about creating infinite possibilities, even though the probability of a miracle happening is very, very small.”

Ling Feng couldn’t help but complain in his heart when he heard those words.

“The probability of a miracle is so small. Why do you believe that I will be a miracle, and keep instilling positive energy into me and encouraging me?”

“Could it be that you’ve met someone who changed your fate, and you still believe that I’ll be the same as that person?”

Su Ranran was completely oblivious to Ling Feng’s thoughts as she continued to pump him up with adrenaline.

Ling Feng was already used to this. As long as this woman opened her mouth, she wouldn’t stop until she was satisfied.

Of course, Ling Feng wouldn’t let the atmosphere turn cold. Whenever she was in high spirits, he would add a few words of agreement.

In the corner, a pair of eyes filled with jealousy was staring at Ling Feng. It was as if he wanted to use his eyes to stare right through him. However, Ling Feng was completely unaware.

But even if he knew, he wouldn’t care.

An A-rank talent, and one that was not even as good as a B-rank talent, was really hard to miss.

Seeing that everyone had left the state of meditation, the teacher continued to explain some general knowledge of meditation.

D and F-rank awakeners who are practicing meditation techniques for the first time can sense the light spots, but they are extremely difficult to capture.

The low-level talents in the class nodded heavily. They were exhausted. They saw it but couldn’t catch it. It was too unbearable.

Awakeners with C-rank talents can generally capture less than 10 light spots, Awakeners with B-rank talents can capture between 10 to 20, A-rank talents can capture between 20 to 45, S-rank talents can capture between 45 to 90, and SS-rank talents can capture between 90 to 500! The teacher said. He observed the situation below. Talent was cruel. A slight difference would result in a huge gap.

It wasn’t impossible to cross over, but it would definitely require a thousand times more effort than ordinary people. of course, the situation I’m talking about is not absolute. This is only the number of light spots that most people can absorb during their first cultivation. In the future, when your strength matures, this theory will naturally be broken.

“Take the S-rank as an example. As you become more familiar with the technique, your limit will reach 100, while the SS-rank will reach 1000! Therefore, the cultivation speed of awakeners with SS-rank talents is ten times faster than those with S-rank talents!”

Everyone looked at each other and then at their own talents. They were filled with sadness.

Why couldn’t they be more talented? the F-rank and D-rank teachers didn’t even introduce them.

“Alright, there’s no point in talking. Everyone, focus on your cultivation.

“In three months, you will be tested on your talent and combat strength. That is the college entrance exam that you have been waiting for. Work hard, young people!”

Hearing this, the students began to feel nervous and excited. At this time, they could be considered to have truly stepped into the army of the college entrance examination and truly begun to prepare.

“School’s out!”
