Chapter 269: The Brave Nat!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
One hundred twenty-nine elites from various provinces gathered outside the largest martial arts practice field at Kyoto Institute. The elites were anxiously waiting for the upcoming freshmen test.
Since this test determined whether or not the first-year students could study on the main campus, the first-year students paid more attention to this test than the college entrance exams two months ago.
After all, these 129 freshmen were the best in every province and received admission letters to Kyoto, which everyone envied. If they did not perform well this time, they might only get a diploma from Kyoto’s second campus. It would be a fatal blow to any freshman if something like that happened.
Moss also looked toward Long Sheng’s martial arts field, thinking about something. His mind replayed what Jonia said: “Do your best in tomorrow’s test, Moss. The school will prioritize those who do well during the future first- and second-year student exchange competitions.”
When the top 10 institutes tried recruiting Moss, Sofia mentioned that Kyoto had won the national first- and second-year exchange competitions five years in a row.
Sofia’s trump card crushed the other institutes’ hopes of recruiting Moss. They knew the competition was enough to prove a school’s ability to train its students.
Simultaneously, if one could represent their school in this competition, it would mean one was more outstanding than the other first- and second-year students.
From Moss’s experience, he knew such a competition would play a significant role in his evolution. Even if it were not, it was still an excellent opportunity for Moss to assess the first- and second-year students’ strengths.
“Freshmen, please pay attention. The freshman test will begin in 15 minutes. Please enter the test room according to the number plate you’ve received. Next, please take the lead to enter the test room.”
As the melodic announcement sounded, many could not help but look at the number plate in their hands.
‘Number five? That means it’s my turn next. It’s okay since I’ll have to take the test sooner or later,’ Moss chanted inwardly and slowly stepped forward.
“Look, the student walking at the back with long flowing hair is Noel from the country’s Number Four High!”
“Wow, that’s Noel? Isn’t he number one in the nation for this recent college entrance exam? He’s quite handsome!”
“He’s mine, so don’t fight with me over him!”
…
Moss helplessly shook his head when he heard the group of girls discussing animatedly. It turned out that being a nymphomaniac had nothing to do with one’s grades.
More accurately speaking, when a girl with good grades became a nymphomaniac, it made people feel even more afraid of those who were capable.
“The seven-foot-tall bald guy at the front is Charlie. He ranked third in the college entrance exams.”
“Isn’t the one in the middle Finley, Z country’s top scorer? He ranked fifth in the college entrance exams!”
Suddenly, a chubby boy six feet in front of Moss shouted in surprise as if he had discovered a new continent, “Our number plates aren’t according to our college entrance exam results, are they!?”
His shout instantly caused heated discussions among the other students.
“Kyoto Institute is so awesome! They’ve recruited elites who placed first, third, and fifth in the country!”
“Of course! Five of the country’s top ten students have come to Kyoto!”
“That’s so cool! I’m proud to be able to study and live alongside these elite students for four years!”
…
Moss heard his schoolmates’ discussion and carefully sized up the three people walking toward Long Sheng’s martial arts practice field.
“Hmm, those three’s spiritual powers are extraordinary!”
After evolving into a Super Knight, Moss discovered that his spiritual power had gotten even more potent. At the same time, he felt its perception range had expanded further.
He could feel others’ spiritual power within 165 feet and determine their approximate level. Although the trio did not use their spiritual powers, Moss could sense their naturally emitted spiritual powers.
Among the trio, Noel was the one who attracted Moss’s attention the most because he could sense Noel was also at level 35.
‘It seems the elites don’t like being idle,’ Moss laughed inwardly.
He had trained in Buried City for two months but had not seen this trio, so the others should have similar training grounds. Moss decided to ask them about it later, and if they obliged, he would find time to train in those training grounds.
A familiar voice sounded from behind him as he was in deep thought, “Hello, Moss.”
Moss turned and greeted the student smilingly, “Hello, Nat. It’s nice to see you again!”
“It’s nice to see you here again! It’s also my honor to be your schoolmate,” Nat said gently, her face flushed red again.
After much thought, Nat finally gathered the courage to greet Moss and talk to him. She thought she was brave but realized she was not brave enough after speaking to Moss.
“You’re very impressive, Nat. You’re L Country’s top scorer!” Moss genuinely praised her. 𝙛𝙧𝙚𝒆𝘸𝚎𝙗𝒏oν𝙚𝘭.𝐜𝒐m
For a girl to be a top scorer in the college entrance exams was not an easy feat. Moss noticed the “number four” plate in Nat’s hand and knew her rank was higher than his, so he asked curiously, “What’s your national ranking?”
Nat dared not look directly into Moss’s burning gaze. Instead, she lowered her head and replied subconsciously, “Seventh, what about you?”
She felt a bit regretful after answering. When Nat saw the trio just now, she knew everyone’s numbers were according to their results in the college entrance exams.
She knew she had ranked higher than Moss and should not have asked about his ranking, as it would seem like she was showing off. However, her mind wandered just now, and Nat was a little short-circuited when she responded to Moss’s question.
‘I’m a top scorer in my country’s college entrance exams, so how come my usual imposing demeanor diminishes whenever I see him?! I’m more like the gentle rabbit I was back in junior high now!’ Nat inwardly nagged, ‘Does liking someone make a girl stupid?!’
“I admire you, Nat. Since you’re a higher rank than me, I’ll have to ask you for more advice in the future,” Moss said sincerely. He was serious when he said that.
After all, Nat had ranked seventh in the country, and she was the highest-ranking female student Moss had heard of. Nonetheless, it was impressive for a girl to obtain such results in something as challenging as the college entrance exams.
Nat’s score was even higher than when Moss had evolved into a Holy Light Knight, so he knew there must be something special about her.
Nat’s red cheeks turned even redder as soon as she heard Moss’s words of admiration. “Y-You flatter me, Moss! I was just lucky, that’s all. I should be asking for your advice instead. I will ask you many questions in the future, so please don’t think I’m annoying when that time comes.”
Moss cupped his fists and bowed to Nat as he said, “Then let’s learn and care for each other in the future!”
Nat followed suit and bowed back at Moss with her reddened face.
Then another announcement sounded, “Students number four to six and seven to nine; please prepare for your test!”
After hearing the announcement, Moss showed Nat his number plate and said softly, “Let’s go. It’s our turn.”
Nat nodded and followed Moss to Long Sheng’s field entrance.
The students started discussing again when they saw three more people walk in from the crowd. 𝒇𝒓eewe𝒃𝑛𝒐𝘃𝒆𝚕.co𝘮
“Hey, that purple-haired beauty is L Country’s top scorer. Her name is Nat, and she ranked seventh in the country!”
“She lives up to her reputation!”
…
“Is that Moss next to Nat?!”
“How thick-skinned is that knight?! It’s time for his test, so how dare he harass my Goddess now?!”
Amid the doubts, Moss showed the teacher in charge his number five plate. When the first-year students saw this, it immediately stunned them.
