This time the ruckus that his words caused was louder than ever.
pαпdα Йᴏνê1,сòМ "Liar! You are registered in the academy as a porter," one of the elders standing on Guo's side blurted out in a storm of fuming rage.
If William was a spirit master, then all of this trap they carefully devised would be instantly ruined! The strongest base they got for such allegations was based on the fact that William was a porter.
However, they truly missed this simple point, a point the ones who told them about what happened and instigated all this forgot to tell any of them about!
"Saying such things isn't a joke or a play," the headmaster spoke at this moment to stop anyone from speaking again, "if you are a spirit master, then you shall prove it."
"I won't say no to a test," William said with a bright smile. He finally reached the point he wanted from the start.
He knew as a porter, his standing and rights in the academy were literally null. In the eyes of everyone, he was considered someone who should be grateful to be given a place here.
But if he was a spirit master, he would have all this instantly changed. Not to mention his spirit power was already above one hundred and fifty points.
It was enough to scare anyone here with such a shocking transformation.
From a mere porter all the way directly to a second year disciple! What a stir such revelation would bring to everyone in the academy? What was better than this grand assembly to cause the shock William wanted before? He'd use this scene and create a name for himself!
"You are asking for a test?" an elder spoke in surprise while another one said in disdain.
"Let him have it. I bet one hundred thousand crystals he is just faking it!"
"I bet another hundred thousand that he is a spirit master!"
"Me also will join, betting on him faking it!"
In the span of a few minutes, a grand bet was done in the hall. Without the need to count, the side standing against William was already bigger.
William wasn't affected by this. In fact, he felt little regret in lacking the ability to ask for part of this huge wealth amassed under his name. But this wasn't something he cared about for now. He just gazed silently and fixedly at the headmaster who finally spoke after everyone calmed down:
"Bring a grand spirit gem to test this kid."
Everyone participated in such a bet, all but the headmaster. It wasn't that he wanted to act impartially, but because he was busy at this time.
As everyone was busy placing their bets, the headmaster was speaking using spirit telepathy with someone else.
Amidst such mess, no one of the elders here noticed such discussion, or the slight change over his face when he heard what the other side said.
But William noticed this. It was simply described by a shocking expression. William didn't know what was going on, but when the headmaster had such a weird expression for a brief second, his eyes rolled to size William up and down once again.
It was as if he was seeing him for the first time, under a bright new light.
The testing process in the academy was just like any testing process everywhere. Using a big orange spirit crystal gem to test the spirit power of anyone was the standard method in this world.
The spirit crystal gem was some sort of ore that was highly sensitive to spirit power. But it couldn't help in assessing anything else. The method William used to assess his spirit power and spirit type and grade was unique and revolutionary, unknown yet to this world.
Not to mention it wasn't easy to obtain a spirit gem, unlike spirit crystals that were commonly and cheaply found everywhere.
And the method of testing one's spirit power was different between the spirit gems and crystals.
"Leave a drop of your blood here," the headmaster pointed at the big gem that a couple of spirit masters brought just now. It was one of the biggest gems William ever saw, almost reaching five metres height and three in width.
William complied and left a drop of his blood there. The next moment, the gem started to shine brightly in white light before a bronzed colour appeared.
This wasn't the end of the test. Inside the gem, dots of sparkling lights appeared. This scene not only left the entire hall in silence, but William felt shocked gazes on his back like daggers.
After all, many betted against him being a spirit master. And they were definitely going to lose a good deal of their wealth right here.
"One hundred and seventy-six spirit points… Damn kid! You aren't just a spirit master, but also a bronze spirit master as well!!" One of the elders who betted on William's win couldn't control his excitement and shock anymore and blurted out in a loud shout.
The headmaster was also surprised but didn't show the same shock that appeared on others' faces. It seemed like he expected William to be a spirit master, but he didn't expect him to be a bronze spirit master.
"Are you satisfied now?" William turned to look at the pale face of the Scout department leader, "With my power, I can kill any spirit master of bronze grade, the same grade you claimed my enemies were at. If it was up to me, I'd never say they were bronze grade and only would consider them white grade."
"You…" This time the voice of that elder became quite shaky and unstable.
"That doesn't prove anything yet," Guo cleared his throat, making William frown. This bastard seemed to be deadly fixated on getting him a punishment. "You killed them or not doesn't matter. The fact that you worked with the dark spirit masters still persists!"
"Humph," as William heard such a bold accusation, he harrumphed in a mocking way, "who says that? Is it the group of liars who said they saw the dark spirit masters kill those kids from the Golden Sky academy? Or is it you?"
"Kid, my patience has limits!"
