Chapter 24 Entrance Exam Begin 10

A typical Blue Riolux couldn't possibly achieve a high score of 3633 points, but with a Emerald Eyed Riolux, everything made sense.

"Of course, of course. This Emerald Eyed Riolux of yours is quite a rare battle pet. Well done, young man; I have high hopes for you!" the bespectacled examiner quickly acknowledged his mistake and complimented Ethen Cole.

"Thank you, teacher."

After confirming that Ethen Cole's score was genuine and valid, the examiner entered his score into the exam center's score management system.

Ethen Cole put Blux away and walked out of the examination room.

"Ethen Cole, how did you do on the test?" Aunt Kiah eagerly asked as soon as she saw Ethen Cole exit the room.

Her loud voice caught the attention of several people inside the examination room.

Whoosh.

Some of the candidates and parents turned their attention to Ethen Cole.

"Ethen Cole, it's okay if you didn't do well. Your battle pet, the Blue Riolux, lacks talent. Just having the courage to come shows you're the most outstanding young man from the shantytown, not letting Uncle Yazali down after all these years of picking up trash to support your education!" Aunt Kiah's words were filled with sarcasm.

Her statement maliciously highlighted three points to the onlookers:

1. Ethen Cole's battle pet is a useless Blue Riolux.

2. Ethen Cole comes from a shantytown.

3. Ethen Cole's tuition is funded by a scavenger.

These remarks, in a public setting, were a significant affront to an 18 year old young man.

Hearing this, Ethen Cole's expression changed. He had no prior conflicts with Aunt Kiah, and in his memory, she seemed decent.

Ironically, during this encounter, she seemed intent on flaunting her superiority over Ethen Cole.

This was intolerable, something his uncle might tolerate, but his aunt certainly wouldn't!

Ethen Cole's eyes glinted as he coldly retorted, "Aunt Kiah, let's wait and see how my results turn out."

Hearing this, Aunt Kiah internally scoffed, "Wait and see? What a pretentious act. Let's see if you have the face to stay here once the results are announced."

"Alright, sure. My child Azfar, give your big brother Ethen some encouragement," Aunt Kiah said deliberately, giving Azfar Ren a meaningful look.

As Azfar Ren was about to offer some encouragement to Ethen Cole, the examiner's voice rang out.

"Hilltop High School, Senior 3, Class 5, Ethen Cole, has scored 3633 points in the second talent test!"

Ethen Cole's score left everyone dumbfounded.

The entire waiting area fell into silence.

An extreme silence, where even breathing could be heard.

The candidates and parents could not believe that they had witnessed the entire process of someone achieving a score exceeding 3000 points.

A score of 3000 points signifies a battle pet with super talent.

Such individuals are rare, perhaps one in ten thousand!

Yet at this moment, Ethen Cole managed it.

Wasn't it said that Ethen Cole's battle pet was useless?

Wasn't it said that Ethen Cole came from a shantytown?

How could he be so strong? It doesn't make sense!

The candidates and parents were shocked.

They had clearly heard Aunt Kiah say that Ethen Cole's battle pet was a Blue Riolux.

A Blue Riolux is so common, so ordinary that it's hardly worth mentioning.

Achieving over 3000 points with a Blue Riolux seemed like a fairy tale.

But the reality before them forced them to believe that Ethen Cole indeed scored over 3000 points!

Immediately, several parents looked at Aunt Kiah with a peculiar expression.

They speculated that Aunt Kiah might have been jealous of Ethen Cole's talent, which is why she publicly slandered him.

"Congratulations, young man. I am the father of Siti Laika from Senior 3, Class 2 at Hilltop No. 4 High School. Here's my phone number. If you ever need any help, feel free to call me!" One parent, reacting quickly, stood up with a smile and handed Ethen Cole a business card.

A business card?

Ethen Cole instinctively took the card from his hand.

The card read: "Finance Manager, Hilltop Branch of New Alliance Tobacco Company," Amir Laika.

This was the first time in Ethen Cole's life that he received a business card from someone, especially from a company middle manager.

This left Ethen Cole feeling somewhat overwhelmed.

A boy from the shantytown had never encountered such things.

Seeing Ethen Cole accept the business card, Amir Laika smiled happily and patted his chest.

"Ethen Cole, my daughter Siti Laika is also doing well academically; she is expected to score over 2000 points in this subject. You two should stay in touch. Listen to your uncle's advice: fortunes change over time. Some petty people aren't worth your attention."

Amir Laika's words were clearly aimed at someone.

Hearing this, Ethen Cole felt a warmth in his heart, grateful for this stranger's support.

"Thank you, Uncle Amir."

Meanwhile, Aunt Kiah's face looked more bitter than bitter herbs.

She hadn't expected such a swift and complete turnaround.

Just moments ago, she was smug about her son's 712 points.

But now, Ethen Cole's extraordinary score of 3633 points had utterly rebutted her.

This left Aunt Kiah feeling bitter.

She had merely intended to flaunt her sense of superiority in front of Ethen Cole, a boy from the shantytown, to boost her own confidence.

But who would have thought she ended up being a fool, like trying to show off her meager skills before a master?

"Son, it's Mom who let you down."

Aunt Kiah felt deeply ashamed as she looked at her son Azfar Ren, who was red faced and visibly upset.

Many people had witnessed today's events, and with so many present, it was likely to spread.

Once the word got out, it would be akin to social ruin for Azfar Ren.

Everyone would know he has a snobbish mother.

This situation was extremely disadvantageous for Azfar Ren, who was about to begin his university life.

Aunt Kiah felt immense regret at that moment, but there was nothing she could do to change what had happened.
