Alec calmly glanced at his status from the corner of his eyes and then shifted his gaze to the Vice Principal's astonished face.

"... (SSS+)-rank talent? How?"

George exclaimed with wide eyes. When was the last time someone with an (SSS+)-rank talent was seen? It's been over 500 years!

Not only George, but all the teachers standing behind him looked at Alec in shock. The Vice Principal quickly assigned another teacher to record the new student's talent and went to inform the Principal. The appearance of someone with an (SSS+)-rank talent after such a long time was big news!

The students also expressed their disbelief while casting envious glances at Alec.

"Did the Vice Principal just say (SSS+)-rank talent?"

"How is this possible? Even the second prince only has (SSS-)-rank talent!"

Many students felt discouraged when they saw Alec's talent. Carcel, who was standing with Lara and Mia, clenched his fists.

He thought he was the strongest among the younger generation, but now, seeing Alec's talent, he felt like his own talent wasn't good enough. However, he decided to make up for it with hard work.

Lara also gave Alec a serious look.

'First Carcel and now Alec, both of them have (SSS)-rank talent. Here I was content with just (SS)-rank talent. Looks like I need to work harder.'

Even Mia felt that her talent couldn't compare to Carcel and Alec.

On the other hand, Kyle shook his head with a wry smile.

'I already thought Carcel's talent was impressive, but now Alec has (SSS)-Rank talent too. I can't even begin to compare myself to these two powerhouses. Instead of getting jealous, I'll just try not to think about them.'

The commotion continued for more than a few minutes this time, so the teachers decided to calm the students down. They didn't want to waste any more time.

One by one, more students were called to the stage, but none of them had talent greater than (S+)-Rank. After a few more students, it was finally Kyle's turn.

"Kyle Ohan."

'Ohan' surname wasn't well-known, so when everyone heard Kyle's name, they didn't pay much attention. But when they saw his face, half of the students became angry.

He was the one who had been criticizing and making remarks about their performances during the third round.

Alec and Carcel also looked at Kyle, but instead of anger, they were curious. They remembered seeing him during the first and second rounds. In fact, they were expecting Kyle to have at least (SS)-Rank talent, considering how easily he passed the first and second rounds. Even some teachers were looking forward to seeing Kyle's talent.

Meanwhile, Kyle gazed toward the stage with a sigh. The silver tips of his black hair fluttered as he stepped toward the stage. He was handsome, but compared to someone like Alec and Carcel, his looks would only be considered average.

As Kyle walked, he felt some hostile stares on his back. He blinked, wondering if it was all in his head.

Nevertheless, he took a deep breath and stepped onto the stage. Immediately, Kyle placed his right hand on the crystal.

Kyle glanced at his stats from the corner of his eyes, and his mouth hung open in shock. Two of his stats were (G)-rank, the lowest rank possible!

But what stunned him the most was the (S)-rank skill! (S)-rank skills were just as rare as finding (SS)-rank talent. Now he understood why the Vice Principal was so determined to get him into the Academy.

One of the teachers looked at the crystal, which showed a light yellow color, and was left dumbfounded.

"...(B)-Rank??"

The teacher exclaimed, looking at Kyle with shock.

'How is this possible? Didn't he breeze through the first and second rounds?'

Alec and Carcel were also shocked to find out that Kyle only had (B)-Rank talent. It was completely different from what they had expected.

Immediately, many people grew angry and started gritting their teeth.

"What? Only (B)-rank talent? Wasn't he the one criticizing us during the third round?"

"I thought he would at least be (SS)-rank!"

"(SS)-rank talent? He doesn't even have (A)-rank talent!"

Some of them even wanted to confront Kyle for his insults during the third round, but they held back in the presence of the teachers.

In the midst of everything happening, Kyle was in a daze as he looked at his stats. He noticed something unusual.

'What Bloodline? When did humans start having bloodlines? I thought only monsters had bloodlines! And why is my rank suppressed?'

Kyle had so many questions racing through his mind. His heart was pounding fast. If his rank was suppressed, could he still increase it?

He was shocked to the core, but after a few minutes, excitement took over. He realized that if he could somehow increase his talent, he might be able to rival people like Carcel or Alec.

'Oh my gosh! Does that mean I can become very strong in the future too?'

The teacher in front of Kyle looked at him with disdain. Kyle snapped out of his stupor when he heard the teacher's emotionless voice.

"You can leave now."

Kyle wanted to ask about the Bloodline in his stats, but he held back. He didn't trust anyone enough to share something like this.

Due to so many pleasant shocks, the one thing he failed to notice was his luck stat, which was (A)-rank!

His luck stat was the highest among all the students, and if compared, maybe even the highest in the whole kingdom!
