Chapter 11 – Entrance Exam

The Academy of Unity had always been the only priority of the young combatants in the whole Unity. New students entered the academy almost every time, and the ones who were kicked out from the academy never ends.

Every new student needed to sit for the entrance exam before becoming an official student of the academy.

The exam was conducted in three categories which are, mental test, physical abilities test such as swords or any other combat arts, and the last one, magic aptitude test.

From the tests, the combatants will be arranged to their respective departments according to their results.

Most students will have a low magic aptitude but excellent in combat arts such as swords, bows, and so on. These students will be sent to the physical combat department.

The rare students who had high aptitude in magic abilities will be sent to the magic department. Majority of these students focused on their magic talent and physically weak.

The last type of student were the ones who had no talent in physical or magic but had the best minds. These type of students were usually great in strategies and tactics in war.

Some were able to help the humankind break through the technological limit, which contributes significantly to human civilization.

Alan and the group entered the academy.

"Big brother, you need to sit for the entrance exam to become a student at the academy," Mary said.

"Do your best big brother!" Alice smiled.

"Of course your big brother will be the best. No doubt." Alan coolly said.

"Are you sure, big brother? Currently, the highest aptitudes in history of the academy in magic and physical are from my prince, John Pride. Are you confident?" Claudia asked.

Alan casually waved his hands and shrugged, "I don't know, haven't tried."

"Who's your big brother!" Alice yelled at Claudia.

"Yes, you're not allowed to call him that." Mary coldly said.

"Humph! Why can't I?" Claudia snorted.

Alan ignored the girls and walked away.

"Eh? Where's big brother?" Mary was the first one who noticed Alan had disappeared from their side.

Alan walked while looking at the academy's scenery. The academy was big. There were many buildings everywhere, and each of them was huge.

Suddenly someone was calling him from behind.

"Hello, are you new here?" a man asked.

"Yes, I just came here, and you are?"' Alan asked.

"Oh, that's rude of me, I'm Basil, the one who in charge of newcomers."

"Oh, I see, can you show me where I can sit for the entrance exam?" Alan nonchalantly asked.

"Sure. Follow me." Basil said.

"You'll see brat, you act like you don't care, but later on, you'll see how ignorant you are of the talents around the Unity." Basil thought.

Alan did not care what the man thought of him.

"Haaaaa…these meaningless exams are a pain in the ass. I haven't eaten yet…" Alan thought to himself. He can't wait to finish the exams and straight away to eat. He was hungry.

After a while, Alan arrived at where the examination took place.

"Here, you can go in and tell the receptionist that you want to sit for the entrance examination," Basil said before he went off.

Alan nodded and went into the building.

"Hello, I want to take the entrance exam." Alan calmly said.

The young female receptionist looked up and surprised to see the enchanting face before she said, "P-please follow me, sir."

Alan followed her into a long corridor until they arrived in front of a big door. The female receptionist opened the door, and Alan was quite surprised.

"So many people…" he muttered.

The young female heard what Alan said. "Yes, people always come to sit for the entrance exam, but usually only two will be chosen among them.

"Two?" Alan was bewildered. The people in front of him were more than a thousand, but the academy chooses only two.

"Yes, Sir. I wish you good luck." The female receptionist peeked a glance at Alan's face before she went away blushing.

"Thank you." Alan casually said while looking inside the chamber.

Alan did not care about the female receptionist anymore; all he cared was the tests that were conducted in front of him.

"There are so many people here. I guess I should go for the mental aptitude test first." Alan thought.

While Alan walked to the written test booth, he saw the aptitudes ranking and its score that was shown on the big screen above him.

4. Alice Snow (77/100)

.........…

"That's the main character for you, first place in both aptitudes. Shaun Cain? Isn't that the guy who helped protect that kid from Flynn not too long ago? The two girls are also quite good." Alan thought.

Alan arrived at the written test booth.

"Hello, I want to take the mental aptitude test," Alan said.

"Name?" the man behind the booth asked.

"Alan Snow." Alan calmly said.

"Snow family?" the man was surprised while staring at Alan.

Alan nodded.

"Come with me." The man stood up and led Alan to a place while thinking, "Alan Snow…where did I heard this name? So familiar."

Alan arrived in a dark room where he supposed to wear a device on top of his head.

"What the ****? Isn't this Cerebro from X-Men? This is a ******* Cerebro!" Alan confusedly shouted.

"What do you mean by Cerebro? That is the device to test your mental strength and calculate your Intelligence." The man said.

"Nothing, forget it," Alan said to the man. "Damn, that thing reminded me of the past, I accidentally shouted." He thought.

Alan wore the 'Cerebro' and closed his eyes. Soon, he arrived in an imaginary world.

"Ah, why there's nothing here." Alan looked around in the imaginary world.

"Hmm…I guess this is an imaginary world, can I make stuff?" Alan thought. He thought for a bit, and suddenly a big palace appeared.

"Hehe, my old palace in my previous life." Alan chuckled.

Soon, Alan had created the whole Earth in his previous life. The imaginary world is like a new world with people in it.

"I should create a whole universe with lives in it. It will be like Star Wars." Alan thought.

At outside,

"What the hell is happening? His brain activity is massive! How the hell can he endured it?" the man who in charge of the mental aptitude test was shocked.

Suddenly, the device showed an error that it had reached the limit.

"Error! Error! One hundred percent limit had been reached! Initiating turbo."

"Two hundred…three…four…five…six…seven…eight…"

"What the ****?! It's still increasing?!!" the man shouted.

*Poof!

The machine behind broken and smoke appeared throughout the room.

"W-we found a genius! A genius!" the man shouted happily.

"Argh…what happened, I was having fun." Alan removed the device from his head.

"Mr Alan Snow! Congratulation. You're the world's genius now. Let's go to the Intelligence department." The man bowed.

"What do you mean? I have yet to test for magic and physical." Alan waved his hand.

"There's no need for that. You have a godly mental. I bet your other tests can never compete with it." The man said.

"Leave me alone. Never try, never know." Alan calmly said while walking out of the room.

The man looked confused as he stared at Alan's back, who was walking leaving the room.

"Now, let's go to the physical aptitude test." Alan talked to himself.

Like before, there was also a booth for the physical test. Alan walked to the booth and told the muscular man behind it that he wanted to take the test.

"Let's go onto the stage." the muscular man said.

Alan was led onto a stage where there was a tall pillar in the middle of it.

"This pillar is to test your physical talent. You just need to touch it, and it will transfer energy to your body to detect your body's talent."

Alan thought for a while before he nodded. Alan walked to towards the pillar and touched it on his palm.

Soon, he discovered something entered his body and can't help but felt annoyed. God's blood was boiling in madness as if it tried to say "Who do you think you are to test me?"

Suddenly, the thing that entered Alan's body was pushed out, and the pillar was shaking before it showed, "Unlimited" on the screen.

People who were watching can't help but opened their jaws in awe. They were so shocked by the result as the limits of the pillar is a hundred. This is the first time the academy encountered such result.

Alan also did not know why he felt so annoyed by the pillar. His emotion was influenced by god's blood ego. He walked away from the pillar while trying to control his anger.

"S-sir, congrats, may I ask what weapon do you use?" the muscular man asked.

Alan, who felt so annoyed, ignored the question. He equipped the Star Sword and slashed towards the pillar from afar.

An arc-shaped force appeared, and it slashed the pillar into two.

*Boom

The pillar crumbled in front of everyone.

"I use a sword." Alan smiled. He was satisfied.

The people who were watching was shocked. Everyone had the same thought, "What a monster. Who is he?"

Alan ignored the gazes and straight away went to the magic aptitude test. The female behind the booth saw what happened and can't help but felt weird.

"Why does this guy wants to test for magic? I thought he was a physical combat genius?" she thought.

Alan quickly registered for the magic test and went to onto the stage. On the stage, there were many magic stones for the combatants to test their magic aptitude.

The procedures were quite the same as the physical test. The only difference is that one needed to touch and transferred their magic into the magic stone, and the results will be shown on the screen.

At the same time, Alan's sister, Erica and Claudia, arrived.

"Hey, that's Big brother!" Alice shouted.

"Big brother! Do your best!" Mary shouted.

Erica was calm. She knew Alan the best and was confident that he would do great.

"I doubt he can be the best when John Pride's is currently in the first place," Claudia said.

The people who heard what the girls said were bewildered.

"Big brother? Isn't that the goddesses? Mary and Alice?" they thought.

Alan only smiled. He walked towards the magic stones and touched it and waited for a moment.

"Eh, nothing? See, he's a monster in the physical test. Although he's physical was godly compared to John's. It's super difficult to have both like him." Some of the academy's students who were spectating said.

Claudia at the back was smirking, not because her character was terrible but because her prince, John Pride, was still in the first place.

Alan smiled again. This time he transferred his magic, fused with Hell's flame and sometimes Zeus's lightning into the magic stones.

Suddenly, the magic stones vibrated, and a light shone brightly from it before it, cracked and *poof!* turned into dust.

It was shocking to the spectators, but that's not the end. As soon as Alan's magic stone turned to dust, all the magic stones on the stage cracked and also turned to dust.

The screen showed "Error. The magic surpassed the limit."

All the spectators were shocked. The ones in charge of mental and physical tests were both in utter shock.

"Oops sorry, I don't need to pay for it, right?" Alan scratched his head.

The examination room was in silence.

"What's wrong with you people?" Alan felt weird. All of the people were watching him.

"Big brother! That's was awesome!" Alice and Mary were jumping happily.

Erica was smiling while Claudia was in a dilemma.

Alan ignored everyone else and immediately went off the stage.

"Let's go. I'm hungry." He said to the girls while circling his belly with his hand.

Erica shook her head while smiling.

"Un! Let's go, big brother!" Alice said.

"I know a perfect place for big brother. Hehe." Mary said.

"I guess…I'll follow too." Claudia shyly said.

Alan's group was in their world and ignored everyone.

"What the ****?!!!" they thought.

*****

On the next day,

The student of the academy were shocked. The entrance exam aptitude ranking had changed.

........

Physical Test

1. Alan Snow

Magic Test

1. Alan Snow

Mental Test

1. Alan Snow

........

Alan ranked first in all of the tests but what was more shocking was that Alan's name did not have any scores; instead, it was shown in a golden colour.

"Alan? Alan? No one told me! I need to see him!" a beautiful girl said while her eyes were moistening.

"I knew you could do it. hehe." Tracy chuckled.

"Alan Snow, huh?" John smiled.

The newer students did not know about Alan Snow that much. They will know about his fame ten years ago later on, but the people who knew Alan, there was only one thing in their minds,

"The King has returned!"
