Celestial Bloodline

Chapter 27: End of Ranking Assessment

The moment Kyle and Nine entered the tunnel two (-F)-Rank Goblins attacked them, but they easily killed them before walking forward.

Soon, Alec and others also caught up to them and they started moving together.

Alec Glanced at Kyle and Nine, both of them were showing good teamwork. Kyle was lacking in some aspects, but Nine's on-time help was compensating for it. Alec observed them for a while and nodded inside. They were not good as someone like Carcel and Lara but they were powerful in their way.

He suddenly thought of something and opened the system appraisal function, using it on Kyle. Alec's left eye glinted with white light for a second, it was so fast that no one noticed it. He looked at Kyle for a few seconds before seeing the information he got from the system.

Alec frowned, looking at the error notifications he was getting from the system. Usually, whenever he used appraisal on someone the system would give him detailed information regarding the target. But now, it was only showing name and Rank. The system wasn't even showing Kyle's talent! Which was definitely (B)-Rank, but now seeing the system's strange behavior he wonders if Kyle truly has only (B)-Rank talent.

On the other hand, Kyle was fighting two (-F)-Rank Goblins at the same time. Suddenly, an arrow past his left side and hit the head of one of the Goblin.

Kyle frowned and looked at where the arrow came from. He saw Lara aiming her bow at another Goblin. Even though she stole his kill, he didn't want to be impolite to her.

He smiled and said,

"Thanks for helping."

But instead of replying Lara completely ignored him. During the Entrance exam, seeing Kyle's extraordinary performance she thought of him as someone equal. But after knowing he only had (B)-Rank talent, she didn't want to associate with him. The gap between them was too big. What's the point of becoming friends, when their worlds are too far apart?

When Kyle saw how Lara ignored him, his smile froze. He didn't bother anymore and turned around to continue fighting with the goblins. He wore a neutral expression, but if someone who saw Kyle fighting before saw him now, that person would notice that Kyle was faster and more brutal than before. It was like he was taking out his anger on the Goblins. The one thing Kyle hated the most was others looking down upon him.

Still, he didn't care. If Lara wants to ignore him he would do the same. In the end, it was not the first time, he was already used to it. All those who have bright futures ahead of them because of their talent were arrogant.

Half an hour later,

Nine and Kyle were fighting on the left side. Meanwhile, Alec and his team were on the right. No one noticed when the distance between the groups started to increase. Some more students also caught up to them and were fighting between the two groups.

As Kyle slash his sword and killed another Goblin he felt a sudden familiar sucking force. Before he could understand what happened, he disappeared and appeared inside the training ground.

Kyle looked around and saw other students also appearing one by one.

'It seems the time for the Ranking Assessment has ended.'

Just like others he also looked toward Professor Liam who appeared in front of the students.

Professor Liam looked at the disheveled and tired students and nodded before speaking loudly,

"All of you showed great performance, even though spending two days inside the dungeon was a huge surprise. There were also a few students who caught my attention because they showed great potential."

He glanced at Alec and Carcel, indicating he was talking about them.

"I know for everyone this experience was new, spending two days inside a cold and dark place, without water, food, and a nice place to sleep. All of you must be thinking it was too hard, considering it was the first test from the Academy. Then let me tell you something, at the start I definitely said there would be some hidden task, which nobody was able to complete. Well, you were not even able to find them, completing them would be too far off a thing."

Professor Liam showed a disappointed expression and looked at the students who were whispering to each other to know if anyone found any hidden task. He then continue,

"Inside the dungeon, in the starting, there were five tunnels. Among them, the middle tunnel guarded by the Goblin warrior was the hardest. The two at the end had less difficulty making it a little easier to pass. On the other hand, if anyone entered the last two they would have been able to see some trees containing fruits and a water source at the start. Well, it's a pity no one entered inside those tunnels."

He said the last line sarcastically, making the whispering students quiet.

If they knew that the last two tunnels contained water and food, who would be idiot enough to enter the middle one? Some students voiced their suspicions that if no one went there, where was the proof that those two tunnels contained water? But when the professor said he could send them inside again so they could check it, everyone shut their mouth.

No one wanted to see those creepy-looking creatures again. They all just wanted to take a nice bath to rid of the stinky smell coming from their clothes which were damp with green Goblin blood.

Professor Liam said a few more things like the students were allowed to rest for today and the results will be posted tomorrow inside the Main hall.

He also told them that the top ten students would be rewarded. They will be allowed to choose a skill or Art of their liking from the second floor of the library without paying. Hearing about the possible reward, made the students happy. After the Professor finished with what he wanted to say, all the students sighed and tiredly left for their dorms to rest.

Kyle and Nine both left together because their dorm was next to each other. Also now that the Ranking Assessment was concluded, Kyle wanted to sleep.

He did sleep inside the dungeon but due to Goblin's constant attacks, he was not able to sleep peacefully. He also didn't rest after coming from the back mountain. Now that Kyle had nothing to do a sudden wave of tiredness washed over him.
