Chapitre 74: Chapter 74: "Huh? I'm only S-Class?"
This guy… he seems to be quite something...
"Vice Dean, what exactly marks the end of the evaluation test?"
Realizing something was odd about Jack, Liam couldn't help but ask the Vice Dean. Jack definitely wasn't ordinary; he'd been twitching on the ground for quite some time now, and if nothing else, his stamina was top-notch.
Liam now realized something. When the divine power pressure first started, he instantly heard that deep voice in his head. But Jack acted like he didn't feel anything and even asked the Vice Dean to confirm the start before suddenly beginning to convulse. His performance felt a little too deliberate.
Tang Jinyi glanced at the space around them, which was now under B-level divine power pressure. She looked at Liam, who seemed completely unfazed, and Jack, who was still rolling on the ground. She sighed, feeling a bit helpless. She then used her energy to speak directly into Liam's ear:
"In the past, losing control of one's body and convulsing meant that was their limit. But now, we've adjusted the intensity. The real limit is when one loses consciousness, becoming completely still as if their mind has been taken over."
Hearing this explanation, Liam nodded in understanding. No wonder neither Sophia nor Vice Dean Tang paid any attention to Jack, as if they didn't care whether he lived or died.
So, this guy is just faking it?
That means he must have a high talent level, but why is he hiding it?
Liam glanced over at Jack again and noticed something strange—Jack had stopped convulsing. Suddenly, he stood up straight, his eyes quickly becoming vacant and hollow. Coincidentally, he was facing Tang Jinyi.
Tang Jinyi remained silent for a few seconds, uncertain about Jack's exact state. Finally, to ensure safety, she used her energy to push him out of the area.
"Alright, you're out of range now," she said.
As soon as she finished speaking, Jack immediately returned to normal. After a brief shudder, his eyes regained their clarity, as if he had just come out of a trance.
"Holy crap, that was terrifying just now! Oh my God!"
"I felt like I was about to leave this world, like my mind was about to collapse!"
"Aunt Tang, I never want to go through this test again! It's too scary!"
He chattered non-stop, dramatically brushing dirt off his clothes. Then he turned to Liam, looking surprised.
"Wow! Brother, you're really something, to last so long. It's clear you're stronger than me!"
"Humanity's future relies on talents like you. I could never compare."
Liam: ...
Liam was now certain—Jack was definitely not simple, though he couldn't understand why Jack wanted to hide his abilities...
As he pondered, Tang Jinyi spoke up.
"Alright, based on this test, you're currently at B-level. So, your base support will be discontinued."
"What?" Jack was stunned for a moment before crying out in distress. "No! You're killing me! I don't want to live anymore!"
"I'm really just D-level! I'm not B, I'm not B!"
Watching Jack's devastated expression, Liam gave a puzzled look. Sophia, noticing his confusion, explained what the base support meant.
In the Eastern Academy, access to the Simulated Training Room is a highly valuable resource. In this room, superhumans can create virtual environments best suited for their training. The time in the Simulated Training Room can only be earned by completing various tasks or performing well in school since these rooms are in short supply.
To accommodate students with lower talent, the academy provides a few hours each month as encouragement, as long as they work hard in their training and meet set goals. This provision is known as the base support.
Jack seemed one step away from clutching Tang Jinyi's leg and crying. But clearly, Tang Jinyi didn't care. She was quite disappointed in Jack. Despite his obvious talent, he always seemed to waste it on unproductive pursuits.
After learning about the base support, Liam finally understood why Jack was pretending. He couldn't help but feel exasperated. This guy… what a character.
Back to the main topic, Tang Jinyi, after kicking aside the wailing Jack, began to seriously observe Liam. By now, they had reached A-level divine power pressure.
Tang Jinyi asked gently, "Child, how do you feel? Can you hold on?"
Liam felt the voices in his mind, but it wasn't as intense as the first time he used the Voice of All Things. So he calmly shook his head, indicating he was fine.
"No problem. I'm quite used to this feeling," he replied.
However, his words were obviously misunderstood by Tang Jinyi. She assumed that Liam had faced many battles against divine beings and their servants during the stadium incident, which had mentally prepared him for such divine pressure.
Feeling a surge of compassion, she softly reassured him, "Child, you've been through so much recently. You've shouldered responsibilities that shouldn't have been yours."
"Now that you're at Eastern Academy, take it easy. Grow at your own pace. Don't listen to that old Cain's nonsense."
"If you ever have worries, come find me anytime."
Liam: ???
What was that about? Why the sudden sentimental talk? It felt a bit odd. But hearing the kindness in her words, Liam felt warmth in his heart and nodded in acknowledgment.
Jack, still nearby, muttered sourly, "Why does Aunt Tang never treat me so nicely? It's not fair…"
Finally, the divine power simulation device had reached its maximum output, but Liam showed only a bit of sweat on his forehead and seemed otherwise unaffected.
Tang Jinyi nodded approvingly and stopped the test. Turning to Sophia, she said, "His talent level is the same as yours—top tier. It looks like Eastern Academy has found another gem this year."
With that, she walked over to Liam, handing him a new superhuman ID card.
Liam glanced at it. His superhuman level was now marked as Fifth Realm, and under talent level, there was a red S.
Huh? This isn't right. When he copied Sophia's ability, the system clearly said it was an SSS-level ability.
Looking at the evaluation, Liam blurted out without thinking, "Huh? I'm only S-level?"
His words were shocking...
