Chapter 260: Enrolment: Part 3

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

About ten minutes later, the old lecturer finished collecting all of the crystal prisms and returned to the lectern.

“The nine different grades of aptitude, you can match it yourself. The lower your aptitude is, the more hard work and training you need to put in. Your soul is determined by your spirit, and your spirit can be nourished by your body. So train your body, break through the limit; that will allow you to train your mind at the same time, and increase your aptitude!”

After a whole load of drivel, the old lecturer started announcing the results.

“Now, I would like to take the time to highlight these three students, their crystals had created the highest possible grade. Pure black! All of you could do well to learn from them.”

“The students with pure black grades are Mylissa Cador, Shalom Barbhula, and Lin Sheng.”

“These three students will receive much more attention to the workshop segments, and all of you should learn from them.”

Lin Sheng sat straight looking forward, but he could clearly sense that Mylissa’s originally proud gaze was now looking at him in astonishment.

She had totally did not expect someone she thought for a country bumpkin to have the same aptitude as her.

Aside from her, there was another redhead brat whose expressionless gaze leaped between Mylissa and Lin Sheng.

“It’s only a beginner’s black shroud crystal. Have you lot not seen one before? It’s not like it’s some high-end crystal…”

The brat scoffed as he measured Mylissa and Lin Sheng with a gaze of superiority; even when he had no idea each and every word he muttered was heard by Lin Sheng.

After the test, the old bald lecturer started to talk about the history and development of dark powers. While this subject was dry, Lin Sheng was paying full attention. At that moment, he was pairing things up with Blackfeather City, and the appearance of the dark powers was usually from the spread of the Black Clusters.

The powers brought on by the spread of the Black Clusters were the dark powers.

The Black Clusters, the very holes had could consume all life, was veritably the source of dark powers, and the three hidden realms did not exist to exterminate the Black Clusters, rather they were meant to maintain a state of balance.

As Lin Sheng listened on, he could feel the gaze of the students around him landing on him. There was a name sign on the top left corner of each table so everyone could see at first glance that he was one of the three with the best aptitude.

One by one, curious and envious gaze swept past him.

Lin Sheng simply just sat up straight as he focused on listening to the lecture.

Soon, the key part of the lecture came.

“Next… the awakening of your dark powers. Those who have already done it, you don’t have to come. Those who have not yet, look at me!” The bald old man held a clear orb and said to the class.

Lin Sheng looked up at the old man.

“Ready, I’ll try, and the awakening will commence. One, two.”

*Bam!!*

There was no three as a bright emerald light suddenly blasted out from the clear orb and in that very instant, countless of cold, formless aura shot out from the clear orb towards the eyes of the students.

Lin Sheng was no exception as he withstood his natural urge to dodge and defense himself, allowing the aura to assail him.

The formless, sinister aura shot into his eyes and seemingly through a special conduit into his heart.

Then, that aura, seemingly like embers on dry wood, instantly lit up a unique thought within his heart.

*Hum… Hum…*

Slowly, the students held their hand out and looked at the faint emerald light at the tip of their finger.

The emerald light was very faint, but that was proof that they could really use dark powers.

Lin Sheng too lifted his hand, and on the tip of his finger, a speck of pure emerald light popped out.

“It is simple but very unstable…” He frowned. Compared to with sacred power, dark power was itself very unstable and could mutate at every moment.

“After awakening your dark powers, you will need to learn the basic methods, the usage, the properties, compression, and transmutation. All of these will be taught by someone else,” the old man spoke again.

Another torrent of drivel later, the old man had no other new content to offer and was mostly reminding the students to not be seduced by the dark thoughts in their heart.

“You are not some superior incarnate or reborn bygone deity, you are just a normal Darksider.

“The dark side of the soul that is aroused by the dark powers can shake and change someone in the beginning.”

While it was drivel, Lin Sheng noticed that a few students recovered from their initial daze after they listened to the old man’s words.

*Ding dong…*

Class was over.

Lin Sheng was just about to go out to get some fresh air when he saw the brat make his way over and block Mylissa’s path.

“Mylissa, do you want to join the Darkheart Society?” The brat wore a proud look, the backpfeifengesicht-type of look, as he looked at Mylissa.

“The Darkheart Society!” Unexpectedly, the proud lady Mylissa’s expression changed, and her face turned pale at the mention of the name.

“You should be very aware of what the aim of the Darkheart Society is and the position my big brother is holding. If he is willing to cover for you, everything would work out fine,” the brat flatly said.

The two were speaking at almost at a whisper, and aside from themselves, only Lin Sheng could hear them.

“The Darkheart Society?” Lin Sheng felt that the organization probably had some clout when he heard that name.

“Think properly and let me know.” The brat sneered before he turned and walked over to Lin Sheng.

“Your turn now. I’m this year’s PIC for the Darkheart Society’s first-years, Shalom. You can go back to find out what sort of organization we are, and if you want to join us, you can send your application to me.

“Of course, with your current conditions, you may have to pay a bigger price to join in. Be prepared for that.”

The brat simply explained while still wearing that proud façade before returning to his seat.

He did not even bother asking if Lin Sheng was willing to join or not.

Then, a voice rang out from the lectern again.

“There is only three days-worth of orientation, after three days, you need to choose a workshop to commence practical studies. If you could not join in time, based on Migan laws, you will need to return to your country,” the bald lecturer explained.

“Of course, you can also opt to join the organizations, and learn from them. But you may be required to pay a price before joining these organizations, but they will also help you to plan out a better future.”

After class, the bald lecturer simply stayed on for Q&A.

Lin Sheng had a mind to join an organization, but the moment he heard that this Darkheart Society would require him to pay a price before joining, that nipped the thought in its bud.

“Day three? Isn’t it tomorrow?” Lin Sheng estimated the time and looked at the brat. He did not reply…

And that meant he was not joining.

After school, Lin Sheng saw that the brat, Shalom went to look for Mylissa again, but Mylissa, who had been shaken earlier, formally rejected his invitation too.

She seemed to have steeled herself for something.

After being rejected again, Shalom was a little angry, and he sneered as he left.
