Chapter 40: Aptitude for Abilities
Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
“In the upcoming period of ti, I will guide everyone in terms of learning about the theoretical aspect of training, but need not be nervous. It’ll just be so basic knowledge,” Xi Fei explained, it seed like the main issue was here: the content of the lessons of Daoyuan class.
However, seeing the way Xi Fei spoke, it didn’t seem like they were going to learn thods of awakening, but another gentler and smoother approach to improving.
Lu Shu felt that this seed more reasonable. This stretches the tispan and gives everyone more space to think.
Will so students be eliminated in this period of ti? This was not entirely impossible!
And only teaching the important skills after establishing team spirit and cultural education seed like a good thod.
Lu Shu was nonchalant. If they had indeed imparted higher skills to them imdiately, it wouldn’t be too reliable or trustworthy.
Xi Fei asked again, “Does anyone know how we selected you?”
This ti, no one could guess the answer. Everyone had this question in their mind, how were they selected?
Previously, everyone had their blood drawn during the health checkup. The nalist of Daoyuan class was released soon after, so everyone only knew that it had sothing to do with the checkup and drawing of blood. But no one knew the specific details.
Xi Fei looked at the silenced students, and smiled slightly, “Anyone knows the alloy of sodium and potassium? You might not have learned this in high school. Let ask a simpler question, what is sodium? Can this student answer the question.”
Xi Fei pointed at the student behind Liu Li, which was coincidentally Lu Shu.
What is sodium? This question was so sudden, what was the sudden relation to this.
Why did Lu Shu study language and literature? Logically, he was doing very well in maths and could probably do well for science. But he absolutely hated physics and chemistry, so much that he chose to study language and literature.
Lu Shu bit the bullet and asked, “Sodium… Sodium is a mystical heavenly path?”
“From Xi Fei’s distress, 357!”
Xi Fei showed signs of confusion. That answer wasn’t at all expected, he thought that these students would say sodium is a type of chemical elent. He also thought that these students might say that sodium will not exist on Earth naturally, since sodium would oxidize in the air rapidly, and have strong reactions with water, and could only exist as a compound.
He never thought that soone would say… Sodium was a mystical heavenly path!
Your thoughts are rather eccentric and creative…
“This student, take a seat…” Xi Fei took a breath and continued, “Sodium is a chemical elent, and the alloy of sodium and potassium, after stabilizing in a liquid state, could be used in a fast neutron reactor as an effective cooler. Of course, it is also a thermal agent in nuclear reactors, and the alloy of sodium and potassium is more dangerous and must be stored in an inert gas. However, we unexpectedly found that it has other functions: it could test the reaction of blood to the aura of the world, commonly known as the aptitude for abilities.”
“We found out that once the sodium-potassium alloy cos into contact with blood, the blood of ordinary people will cause the alloy to give off huge amounts of heat, while that of people with an aptitude for abilities will have a different reaction. Instead of emitting heat, the tal will turn from silver to black. The darker the color of the product tal, the higher the aptitude for abilities the person has. Currently, the accuracy of this technique is as high as 99.99%.”
Lu Shu gained massive information from the words of Xi Fei: The first key information was that these people actually found a way to differentiate the different aptitudes for the abilities, and it also seed like a very reliable scientific thod.
The second information was that there was definitely a master or soone skilled in this group of people. Such a high-level experint, there should be soone who could control the explosiveness of the reactive alloy, with such a large proportion of blood from normal people, there was bound to be a huge explosion. Or else everyone near the experint would perish…
And these masters were not in small numbers. After all, the blood was drawn from the entire country… Thinking until this point, Lu Shu halted his thoughts. There was too much work to be done for this testing, there were millions of high schools in the entire country! On top of that, there were primary schools, secondary schools, and even colleges. Lu Shu thought that the governnt probably had a more efficient and higher skilled thod.
Xi Fei continued, “We classified the aptitude into 6 tiers, ABCDEF. We use the classification to differentiate the potential. Later, you guys will be able to see what tier you belong to. Of course, I want to say one more thing. Your tier does not determine your future accomplishnts. The training still requires much dedication. If anyone cannot tolerate this lonely journey of training, feel free to quit.”
At this mont, Xi Fei didn’t ntion what would happen if they quit, but everyone couldn’t help but think about it.
Xi Fei didn’t say much about it, and created a class chat group, “I will announce everyone’s aptitude in the class group. Everyone may go take a look.”
Lu Shu picked his eyebrows. There was an evident difference in their aptitudes, and directly sending this to the class group would agitate everyone. Could it be that he wanted to split the class according to their strengths? Just like exams in the past, when academic results were used. Now it’s declaration of their aptitudes and even their training progress in future?
This was to force everyone to improve!
It seed like the governnt was calm and collected in handling this matter, but this did not an they were kind!
Seeing Xi Fei send the docunt in the chat group, everyone imdiately opened it, curious to find out their own aptitudes. If they could have tier A aptitude, wouldn’t that an their training will be much easier in future?
So of their faces changed when they opened the docunt. So were happy, while there were so who didn’t utter a word.
Lu Shu wasn’t that impatient. He looked from top to bottom, wanting to understand what was the standard in his class.
No one belonged to tier A while there were 3 in B, naly Liu Li, the new deskie Jiang Shuyi, and a na which was foreign to him.
Lu Shu looked over at Liu Li, only to notice that he could no longer hide his joy. In contrast, his deskie Jiang Shuyi was calm and collected, with no evident emotion shown on his face. How many people actually thought that Jiang Shuyi was a girl? Lu Shu thought interestingly.
Jiang Shuyi chose to be his deskie this afternoon. Who knew what this person was thinking, choosing the floor mat beside Lu Shu.
Scrolling down, he saw more tier C’s, around 25% of the class. Then there was tier D, which consisted about two-thirds. There was a small number of tier E students remaining.
This ant that everyone was at about the sa level, and tier B was already considered to be very good aptitude. Since tier A existed, it ant that there were definitely tier A rated people within the black coats. Where else could tier A co from?
It seed like there would always be soone stronger no matter the tier.
Lu Shu then looked at his own class… Damn it, he was one of the three students in tier F!
