Twenty-four bone spike attacked the twenty-four circular targets in front. This time, twenty-two bone spike disappeared along with the circular targets, leaving two circular targets in place.
"Only two left…," Ender muttered to himself.
This result was expected; he had already noticed something was off when he made his move, as two of the bone spike' attacks had not reached their limit.
"His Spiritual Force amplitude is 22 or 23 times."
Seeing that two circular targets remained, Ian had a good idea.
Then he spoke, "Based on the twenty-four bone spike, you can state a number to reduce the corresponding number of bone spike."
"One."
Ender said.
As his voice fell, twenty-three bone spike materialized out of thin air.
Manipulating these twenty-three bone spike with his Spiritual Force, Ender did not rush to attack the circular targets in front, but instead carefully sensed his current state.
"Sure enough, these twenty-three bone spike are the limit."
Fully manipulating the twenty-three bone spike, he sensed a feeling of stagnation in his Spiritual Force.
"Go!"
Ender lightly shouted, and the twenty-three bone spike attacked the circular targets in front, then disappeared without a trace.
After completing it, he exhaled a long breath, his expression much more relaxed, "Examiner Ian, this is my limit."
Upon hearing this, Ian nodded and said, "Test over."
As Ian's voice fell, the space changed, and Ender, who had been standing in the Virtual Universe, was now seated in his previous seat.
Ender's expression was slightly dazed. He looked around and then confirmed that he had returned to reality.
The electronic voice announcing the results sounded, "Candidate Ender, Spiritual Force amplitude is 23 times."
"A 23-times Spiritual Force amplitude. I wonder how this result is, and if I can get special approval to enter Morning Light Academy."
Ender thought to himself.
At this moment, Ian's voice of praise came, "Ender, your performance exceeded my expectations. You are the candidate with the highest Spiritual Force amplitude in this entrance test, though this is only for now."
"The best for now!"
Upon hearing this, Ender's heart skipped a beat. "Does this mean I really might get special approval to enter Morning Light Academy?"
Ian asked with a smile, "I have a small question; can you answer it for me?"
Ender changed his address, "Mentor Ian, please speak."
"I looked at your data, and it mentioned that you killed a Planetary Level Demon Beast in the recent beast tide. How did you manage that?"
Ender replied, "A first-order incomplete Spirit Weapon."
After the previous conversation, he sensed that Ian was somewhat special, not like an ordinary examiner.
Ian lowered his head and muttered to himself, "A 23-times Spiritual Force amplitude, combined with a first-order incomplete Spirit Weapon that can unleash its power, killing a low-level Planetary Level is not too difficult."
After muttering to himself, he looked up with a smile on his face, "Because of your outstanding talent, as one of the chief examiners for this entrance test, I believe you can directly enter Morning Light Academy."
At this point, he paused and said, "Therefore, I announce that you have obtained a spot to enter Morning Light Academy, without needing to participate in the Trial Tower assessment."
"What?!"
This sudden pleasant surprise caught Ender off guard. He had just so suddenly obtained a spot for special approval to enter Morning Light Academy.
He had thought that Ian's identity was at most special, perhaps a confidant of a chief examiner, but he never expected him to actually be one of the chief examiners.
"Thank you, Mentor Ian!" He quickly bowed in gratitude.
"No need." Ian slightly raised a hand, "At your age, to reach a 23-times amplitude and even kill a Planetary Level Demon Beast—
"This has already surpassed the vast majority of candidates, so you naturally can enter Morning Light Academy. You will receive the admission notice from Morning Light Academy in at most an hour."
After speaking, he waved his hand and said, "Alright, your test is over, you can leave. It's time for the next candidate to come in for the test."
"Yes."
Ender was excited and thrilled. After bowing respectfully, he left the testing room.
Watching Ender leave, Ian tapped a few times on his communicator, sent a message, and then left through a side door, while the female examiner returned to the testing room.
Emerging from the testing room, Ender had a hint of joy on his face as he approached Ivan.
"Third Uncle, my Spiritual Force amplitude test result is 23 times. Because the examiner inside was a chief examiner, I received special approval to enter Morning Light Academy."
Coming to Ivan's side, Ender shared the good news.
"What?! You got a spot to enter Morning Light Academy? Eleven, you didn't mispeak?"
Naturally, Ivan did not believe Ender's words.
There was someone from the Holke Family among this year's chief examiners, so how could Eleven be granted special approval to enter Morning Light Academy without even participating in the Trial Tower assessment?
"It's true. Examiner Ian inside is one of this year's chief examiners. He believes that with my talent, I don't need to undergo the Trial Tower assessment and can be specially approved to enter Morning Light Academy. He also told me I would receive the admission notice from Morning Light Academy in at most an hour."
Seeing Ivan's disbelief, Ender repeated what Ian had said.
"Ian?"
Hearing the name of this chief examiner, Ivan recalled the list of Holke Family members serving as mentors at Morning Light Academy; there was no one named Ian among the few names. "So it's true."
Ivan patted Ender's shoulder and praised, "Well done! Let's go back and tell your grandfather this good news."
Thus, the two left with smiles, which greatly surprised those who were preparing to watch the show.
"What's going on? Did he pass the entrance test?"
The middle-aged man who loved to watch the show looked surprised, "The timing doesn't match! It's impossible to pass the Trial Tower assessment so quickly!
"Could it be that the Holke Family members had a change of heart? They didn't make things difficult for this young man named Ender Royce? This isn't normal!"
Including him, the others were all puzzled, unable to understand what was happening.
…
Ian, riding the high-speed elevator, returned to the chief examiners' office. He sat down at his desk and began conversing with the person opposite him.
"I went out just now and found a promising young man. His talent is excellent, so I gave him the privilege of entering Morning Light Academy with special approval, without needing to participate in the Trial Tower assessment."
The person opposite asked, "Oh? What's his name? Maybe I know him."
Ian replied, "Ender Royce."
A middle-aged man who had been engrossed in work at the main desk immediately looked up upon hearing Ender's name.
He eagerly asked, "Mentor Ian, who did you just say was granted special approval to enter Morning Light Academy without needing to participate in the Trial Tower assessment?"
"Ender Royce. What's wrong, Mentor Marcel?" Ian asked.
"Mentor Ian, that's a big problem!" Marcel's expression slightly changed. "The Academy trusts us by making us chief examiners; we cannot betray that trust. You casually giving away an admission spot is extremely irresponsible."
Ian narrowed his eyes and asked, "Mentor Marcel, what do you mean by that?"
"May I ask, Mentor Ian, is Ender Royce's Spiritual Force amplitude 25 times?" Marcel asked.
"No," Ian replied patiently.
"Since it's not, then why did you give the spot to Ender Royce, Mentor Ian?" Marcel continued to ask.
"I already said it before, because of his outstanding talent," Ian gave his reason. "I even believe he has the best talent among all candidates in this entrance test."
"Mentor Ian! How do you know he has the best talent?" Marcel asked somewhat aggressively.
"Mentor Marcel, are you questioning my judgment?" Ian's face slightly chilled.
He, Ian, was a proud man!
A waste of a Stellar Rank first-level Martial Artist who grew up in a greenhouse, dares to question his judgment!
"I'm not questioning your meaning, Mentor Ian. It's just that some people's talent is well-disguised and highly deceptive."
Marcel briefly explained, to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.
Of course, if Ian wanted to fall out with him over this matter, he wasn't afraid!
They were both Stellar Rank first-level; their strength wouldn't differ much, and besides, private combat was strictly forbidden on Kuka Planet.
Marcel spoke, "For example, Ender Royce's father was a Genius with a Qi amplitude as high as twenty-one times.
"But his Comprehension Ability was very poor, and he was eventually eliminated from Morning Light Academy."
"So?" Ian asked.
"So I hope you can withdraw the spot and have Ender Royce return to participate in the Trial Tower assessment. If his assessment results are excellent, then everyone will be happy.
"But if his assessment results are not ideal, then it won't involve you, Mentor Ian."
Marcel believed he had considered everything thoroughly; this was a win-win solution.
"Hehe! Mentor Marcel." Ian chuckled and shook his head, "I won't misjudge people, so it's impossible for me to withdraw the spot I've given."
Ian was very confident; among those in Morning Light Academy, few were better than him at judging people!
He had traveled the Universe with his teacher for over a hundred years; his knowledge and experience were definitely not comparable to these hothouse flowers who had never left Kuka Planet.
"Since that's the case, then I'll just have to personally correct your mistake, Mentor Ian." Marcel's expression turned cold, and he said, "In the name of the First Chief Examiner."
"You are the First Chief Examiner, of course, you have the right to reject my application for direct academy entry privilege."
Ian nonchalantly tapped on the table, then showed a slight smile, "But I will also report this matter truthfully to the Dean, Mentor Marcel, you should look out for yourself."
He had understood; this Marcel was targeting Ender Royce, and given the latter's age, it was unlikely to be a personal grievance, so it was most likely a Family feud.
"In the name of the First Chief Examiner, I reject the direct academy entry privilege granted to candidate Ender Royce by the Third Chief Examiner, Ian Tult."
Marcel said coldly. Now they had completely torn off the pretense; he followed through and rejected the latter's privilege application.
After listening to Marcel's announcement, Ian shook his head slightly and got up, walking out of the chief examiners' office.
The core Joint Training Camp on Kuka Planet had just suffered huge losses and urgently needed new Geniuses to replenish its ranks.
But this idiot Marcel actually still had the mood to use public office for private revenge.
"Fourteen years old, Spiritual Force amplitude 23 times. This talent is rated as superior in the System's evaluation. As long as he doesn't fall on the second level of the Trial Tower assessment, entering the Academy is a certainty."
Ian truly couldn't understand where Marcel got the courage to do this. "Could it be…"
He suddenly had a guess, "He wouldn't have not looked at Ender Royce's data, would he?"
Thinking of this, he felt that this was very likely true, and couldn't help but laugh, "This idiot! He really wouldn't have not looked at the data, would he?"
