Chapter 16: Shocking results at Affinity Testing Hall

Athan then walked for few more minutes before he encountered another Grade 4 Beast known as Thunder Tail Wolf because this wolf's tail is covered by lightning and when it attacks using its tail, it produces thunder-like sounds.

Athan spotted the wolf because of its tail but he ignored the wolf because he wanted to fight with grade 5 beast not grade 4 and surprisingly the wolf also did not attack him, " Seems like that wolf knows that it is not a match for me. "

Athan then kept walking for 10 more minutes before finally encountering a giant bear, Athan looked at the Giant bear that was sleeping, " This bear is a grade 5 Rock Armoured Bear, I read about it before, I also heard that when they mature they automatically upgrade and become Grade 6 Thousand Rocks Bear, They are very proficient in Earth Element. "

Athan thought for a moment before picking up a big rock and threw it at the bear because, ' I don't want to attack it while it's sleeping, I'm here to test my strength not to hunt beasts.'

The rock hit the bear but the bear didn't even budge making Athan a little surprised, " Looks like I have to throw the rock with some force. "

Athan picked another rock and threw it at the beast with more power this time.

*Rawrrrrrrrrr....*

The Beast was disturbed and roared after waking up, it must be thinking ' who the f**k woke me up, I was seeing a good dream where I was surrounded by many female bears, '

The bear soon spotted Athan because Athan was in front of it waving his hands at the bear.

The Bear's eyes turned red as it dashed at Athan.

Then Athan smiled seeing that as he also dashed towards the bear intending to tackle the beast.

*BAMMM*

Both tackled each other and the bear was actually pushed back, But Athan knew that the grade 5 bear did not use its full power, because when a beast upgrades to grade 5 they produce a core inside their body which lets them use elemental abilities.

The Bear became enraged for getting pushed back and then it activated its ability.

Suddenly a large amount of Earth element burst out from the bear as an armor of rocks started to form around its body, Just as their name suggests, Rock Armour bears, They can form a solid Rock Armour on their body and also power-ups their Claws with earth elemental energy which increases their attack power.

" Hahaha, good bear, let's see how tough and powerful you became after using your ability. " Athan laughed and dashed towards the bear.

*RAWRRRR...*

The bear gave one more roar and swiped its claw forward when Athan came near it.

Seeing that, Athan readied his fist and threw it towards the incoming beast claw, This time Athan used his full power on that punch.

The Result?

The armour claws of the bear shattered along with its real claws as blood started to flow.

The Bear gave a painful roar as it attacked foolishly with another claw to which Athan responded with his own full-powered punch which produced the same result.

The bear was devasted and practically started whimpering as it put both its hand over its head and crouched down.

Athan stood there as he muttered, " looks like that Black Crystal's energy increased my Physical strength and toughness to more than double because it's main property was also related to toughness and strengthening. "

Athan then sighed and thought, ' If I had a system then I could keep track of my progress & stats and even check other people's stats. '

But after signing, Athan suddenly got an idea, ' Wait, How about I make an interface of my own? After making it, I can check my own stats...But how do I make it?...'

Athan thought for a long time before deciding, ' First, Interface will be inside my Psychic Realm....wait wait wait.'

Athan suddenly stopped because he thought of something ' Since the black whirlpool gives a stronger version of energy after it devours Essense of elements then it should also give me a stronger version of psychic energy after it devours it right? yeah, of course, it should, but my current amount is small, so first, I need to cleanse the grey impurity and increase my Psychic Energy. '

Athan then went back as he did not want to keep testing his strength but based on his guess, He should be able to fight evenly with Grade 6 Beasts, as for Grade 7? sorry, there are no Grade 7 beasts in this forest.

...

After arriving at his home, He first entered his psychic realm to clear the grey impurity, since he had asked method from Lafurge he knew what to do.

Athan focused and Gave his psychic Energy solid form before giving it a shape of...Eraser.

well since he was going to erase the grey impurity he thought giving his psychic energy the form of Eraser would be better.

And then...

He started rubbing the eraser at grey impurity and it worked, But after rubbing for a few times, his eraser also shrank.

After rubbing for a few minutes, his eraser completed disappear along with some grey impurity, ' 1-2% maybe? damn, looks like this is gonna take some time early stages, I'm glad those 3 crystals cleared some grey impurity to increase my psychic energy, anyway, I'll clear grey impurities once again after my psychic energy recovers. '

Then Athan slept for 3 hours before waking up and clearing the grey impurities again.

After sleeping for another 3 hours, Athan did not clear the impurities because it was already morning and now it was time to check if he awakened any affinities or not.

Taking a bath and changing his clothes, Athan arrived in the Mountain Palace's hall.

After arriving at the desk, He said to the lady, " Can you please call Lafurge here? "

The Lady looked at Athan before saying, " Did you have any appointment with him? You can't just call a core elder like that. "

" This..." Athan had a troubled expression on his face as he didn't think about that, after being silent for a few seconds, he said to the lady, " Can you tell me where do I test my affinity? "

The lady was surprised before throwing a disdainful look and said, " Go to Hall No.3, this is where people check their elemental affinity. " saying this she pointed at the left side of the Palace hall.

Athan noticed the disdainful look but he just smiled and thanked the lady before going towards the path pointed by her.

After walking along that path, he soon found Hall No.3, Athan knocked on the door before it opened.

Entering the Hall, Athan was surprised because there was no one in the hall except an old man in his sixties reading a book while sitting on a chair.

The old man spoke without looking at Athan, " Wait for 5 minutes, I'm almost done reading this arc. "

Athan arrived at the pool where colorful fishes were swimming and waited there.

It didn't take long for 5 minutes to pass.

The old man stood up before putting down his book on the chair and said with a smile, " Alright young man, go stand in the middle, I'll record your affinity. "

After nodding to the old man, Athan took a step forward and put one of his feet into the pool only to receive a shock.

Because, Just as he put his right foot into the pool, A red fish and a Darkblue fish started glowing like crazy and arrived at Athan's feet with fast speed.

Athan was startled at first and then excited, He then put another of his feet into the pool and started moving forward in the pool before stopping in the middle, even tho there was no point to it.

But unlike what old man and Athan thought, The fishes did not stop glowing after 1 minute and continued to glow.

The old man thought, ' 1 minute of glowing is already considered High-Grade Talent, I've not heard of anyone going past that, looks like I have to call a core elder. '

Athan saw that the old man took out some kind of talisman and guessed that he was going to call someone of higher authority, so he instantly thought of lafurge and said, " Can you call Core Elder Lafurge? He knows me quite well. "

Hearing my words, The old man nodded he put down the talisman his in hand before taking out a different talisman from a small bag that was around his waist.

Athan then watched as the old man injected his psychic energy into the talisman before murmuring something.

After murmuring for a few seconds, the old man put away the talisman and focused on the glowing fishes.

The fishes did not stop glowing at the 5-minute mark.

Seeing this old man muttered, " 5 minutes is already a sign of Peak-Grade Affinity, And that's Fire and thunder affinities both. " he then looked at Athan like he was some kind of monster.

They still did not stop glowing even after passing the 6-minute mark.

No sign of stopping even after passing the 7-minute mark.

8 minute...

9 minute...

Finally, At 10 minutes Mark, the glowing of fishes stopped, The old man then looked at the fishes and exclaimed out loud, " WHAT!!! "

Athan was confused and also looked at the fishes after he traced the old man's gaze.

Both fishes came dimmer than usual and were not even moving.

The old man hurriedly took out a red and a blue crystal before throwing them inside the pool near the fishes.

Then the old man looked at Athan and said, " Young man, come out fast, or those fishes might start glowing again resulting in draining their energy once again. "

Athan had a dumbfounded expression as he thought, ' Maybe the fishes glowed more than usual because of those two crystals inside my Psychic Realm '

But then He smiled while thinking, ' Anyway, one thing is for sure, My affinity grade is way higher than High-Grade affinity hahaha '
