“Physique Realm, Level Four, Bone age 1.5, Low potential…”
“Not qualified.”
As the largest academy of the Aeonians, coupled with the relatively high assessnt standards for adult candidates, there were very few adult candidates who could enter the Three Elents Academy on the annual entrance examination day.
This was also one of the reasons why Jiu Han did not like to watch the adult candidate assessnts.
After all, with the strength of the Eternal Clan, any promising talent would have long been discovered and carefully nurtured. Why would they participate in the adult examination?
This was despite the fact that this was the adult examination of the largest academy of the Eternal Clan.
Just as Jiu Han shook his head and was about to leave, a new batch of candidates walked in.
This made Jiu Han imdiately stop in his tracks and look at the new batch of ten people.
He did not use the perception of a Divine Spirit Realm expert. After all, to Jiu Han, this kind of occasion was like scratching a lottery ticket. Activating his X-ray vision would take away much of the fun.
However, a vague premonition told Jiu Han that among these ten people, there might be soone who would bring him a pleasant surprise.
Barely mustering so interest, Jiuhan looked at the ten people in front.
“Physique Realm Level three, Bone age 1.2, Good Potential, Qualified.”
Among the ten people in this batch, the first candidate passed the initial round of the test.
Of course, although the talent of this number one person had reached the entrance standard of the Three Elents Academy, he had not reached Jiu Han’s standard.
He just swept his gaze across the remaining nine students in front of him, not using any powers but assessing their potential solely through visual inspection and physiognomy.
“Oh, this one is not bad. Although he looks a bit older, he seems quite strong, I wonder what level he is.”
“Oh? This one is not bad either! He has a strong and straight physique, exudes confidence, and is full of vigor. Looks like he’s young and spirited.”
“Eh? This person standing beside the Flastone Clan mber doesn’t seem bad either.”
“He’s big and has well-defined muscles, he must have put in a lot of effort in the Body Forging technique. He has a stable temperant and doesn’t show his emotions. His temperant is probably not bad. Although he looks a bit older, he shouldn’t be too old… Hmm, not bad, not bad.”
As Jiu Han assessed, he muttered in his heart.
The assessnt proceeded in an orderly manner.
Unlike Jiu Han, the candidates in the sa group naturally assessed each other, and so even used subtle ans to gauge their competitors’ strength.
Therefore, the candidates had a good understanding of each other’s abilities.
The weaker ones, or those who considered themselves weaker, would step forward first – this seed to be an unwritten consensus to put their big brother last.
The first six candidates quickly completed the test.
Only two of them passed.
As the sixth candidate finished the test, Quan Chao raised his leg and walked towards the crystal pillar.
Soon, the crystal pillar radiated light.
The examiner spat out a sentence calmly.
“Third level of the Spirit Realm, Bone age 2.2, Average potential.”
With that said, the examiner paused for a mont and added, “Qualified…”
There was no problem with Quan Chao’s strength and bone age, but his average potential made it a bit difficult to decide.
It made sense to say that he was not qualified, but saying he was qualified seed to work as well.
Considering that the passing rate for this adult examination was not particularly high, the examiner might as well be magnanimous and let Quan Chao pass.
Quan Chao was also smart. He smiled at the examiner and thanked him before quickly returning to Lu Ming’s side.
“Next.”
The examiner spoke and looked at the remaining three candidates. Among the three of them, just as Lu Ming was hesitating and wanted to step forward, an examinee with white hair and an aged face took the lead and walked towards the assessnt area.
“I’ll go first.”
As his voice floated out, this person placed his hand on the crystal pillar. Accompanied by vast light radiating from the crystal pillar, the examiner’s pupils imdiately constricted.
“Ancient Realm?”
The old man nodded, “Yes.”
“The crystal pillar can’t asure the bone age of the Ancient Realm, so it needs to be tested manually. Do you have any objections?”
The examiner asked politely and the old man nodded again, “No objections.”
Under everyone’s gaze, an Ancient Realm examiner was about to step forward when Jiu Han was one step ahead and entered the assessnt area.
The examiner was taken aback but was about to speak when Jiu Han waved his hand with a smile, saying. “Let do it.”
After that, Jiu Han smiled and nodded at the old man.
“Can I take a look at your mystical patterns first?”
The old man nodded and unbuttoned his clothes, revealing the two mystical patterns on his shoulders.
“Level One of the Ancient Realm, Double silver patterns.”
“In that case…”
As he muttered, Jiu Han reached out and touched the old man’s wrist.
Trees have growth rings.
Similarly, the bones of living beings also have growth rings.
So experienced ordinary people could roughly determine a person’s age by feeling their bones. As for a Divine Spirit Realm expert, he will never make an error of more than a year in determining a person’s age.
After squeezing it twice, Jiu Han retracted his hand.
He said to the old man, “First level of the Ancient Realm, Lifespan 4,218 years, Average potential.”
The maximum lifespan of the Ancient Realm was approximately 5,000 to 6,000 years, and this was regardless of race.
Beyond 5,000 years old, Ancient Realm experts and even quasi-divine beings were equivalent to reaching the end of their lives.
The old man had a Bone age of 4,218 years old. If he had so hidden injuries when he was young, it would already be equivalent to advancing to old age. His potential could only be said to be average for advancing to the Ancient Realm through silver patterns at this age.
This was an Ancient Realm expert that was purely achieved through ti and so luck.
However, Ancient Realm experts were considered formidable everywhere… Since this old man had co to participate in the Three Elents Academy examination, there was no reason for the academy to reject him.
Jiu Han smiled gently, “May 1 ask why you want to join our Three Elents Academy?”
Jiu Han used the term “join” rather than “enroll” because it was clear that this person was definitely not here to study.
Then the old man said respectfully, “My na is Bai Yao. I’ve been roaming outside for the better part of my life. A few years ago, 1 t a beautiful woman, and we happily tied the knot and had a son. 1 no longer wished to live a life filled with danger and conflict.”
“I took the liberty to co to the Three Elents Academy this ti to seek a stable job within the academy. 1 don’t aspire to progress any further; 1 only wish to make a peaceful living and provide the best education for my son.”
Jiu Han could not help but sigh,”As a father, you’re truly great.”
Bai Yao also smiled and said, “It’s not a matter of being great or not. It’s just that this old man here knows the hardships and difficulties of those without connections. In the past, 1 had to risk my life to find source power techniques at the level of Source Realm or Ancient Realm… My son has good aptitude, and if 1 can join the academy, it’ll be a way to pave the road for him and let him avoid so detours.”
Certainly, Source Power techniques would not be in short supply within the academy.
Although there was a certain threshold to obtain it, it was clearly much easier than searching outside.
Having access to renowned instructors and the academy’s connections was an invaluable hidden resource.
Jiu Han nodded slightly when he heard this. “Then there’s no need for us to do any temperant test. Wait a mont first. When the assessnt here is over, soone will arrange a job for you. What do you think?”
Bai Yao nodded, “Very good..”
