Chapter 40: Aptitude for Abilities

Translator: Sparrow Translations  Editor: Sparrow Translations

“In the upcoming period of time, I will guide everyone in terms of learning about the theoretical aspect of training, but need not be nervous. It’ll just be some basic knowledge,” Xi Fei explained, it seemed like the main issue was here: the content of the lessons of Daoyuan class.

However, seeing the way Xi Fei spoke, it didn’t seem like they were going to learn methods of awakening, but another gentler and smoother approach to improving.

Lu Shu felt that this seemed more reasonable. This stretches the timespan and gives everyone more space to think.

Will some students be eliminated in this period of time? This was not entirely impossible!

And only teaching the important skills after establishing team spirit and cultural education seemed like a good method.

Lu Shu was nonchalant. If they had indeed imparted higher skills to them immediately, it wouldn’t be too reliable or trustworthy.

Xi Fei asked again, “Does anyone know how we selected you?”

This time, no one could guess the answer. Everyone had this question in their mind, how were they selected?

Previously, everyone had their blood drawn during the health checkup. The namelist of Daoyuan class was released soon after, so everyone only knew that it had something to do with the checkup and drawing of blood. But no one knew the specific details.

Xi Fei looked at the silenced students, and smiled slightly, “Anyone knows the alloy of sodium and potassium? You might not have learned this in high school. Let me ask a simpler question, what is sodium? Can this student answer the question.”

Xi Fei pointed at the student behind Liu Li, which was coincidentally Lu Shu.

What is sodium? This question was so sudden, what was the sudden relation to this.

Why did Lu Shu study language and literature? Logically, he was doing very well in maths and could probably do well for science. But he absolutely hated physics and chemistry, so much that he chose to study language and literature.

Lu Shu bit the bullet and asked, “Sodium… Sodium is a mystical heavenly path?”

“From Xi Fei’s distress, +357!”

Xi Fei showed signs of confusion. That answer wasn’t at all expected, he thought that these students would say sodium is a type of chemical element. He also thought that these students might say that sodium will not exist on Earth naturally, since sodium would oxidize in the air rapidly, and have strong reactions with water, and could only exist as a compound.

He never thought that someone would say… Sodium was a mystical heavenly path!

Your thoughts are rather eccentric and creative…

“This student, take a seat…” Xi Fei took a breath and continued, “Sodium is a chemical element, and the alloy of sodium and potassium, after stabilizing in a liquid state, could be used in a fast neutron reactor as an effective cooler. Of course, it is also a thermal agent in nuclear reactors, and the alloy of sodium and potassium is more dangerous and must be stored in an inert gas. However, we unexpectedly found that it has other functions: it could test the reaction of blood to the aura of the world, commonly known as the aptitude for abilities.”

“We found out that once the sodium-potassium alloy comes into contact with blood, the blood of ordinary people will cause the alloy to give off huge amounts of heat, while that of people with an aptitude for abilities will have a different reaction. Instead of emitting heat, the metal will turn from silver to black. The darker the color of the product metal, the higher the aptitude for abilities the person has. Currently, the accuracy of this technique is as high as 99.99%.”

Lu Shu gained massive information from the words of Xi Fei: The first key information was that these people actually found a way to differentiate the different aptitudes for the abilities, and it also seemed like a very reliable scientific method.

The second information was that there was definitely a master or someone skilled in this group of people. Such a high-level experiment, there should be someone who could control the explosiveness of the reactive alloy, with such a large proportion of blood from normal people, there was bound to be a huge explosion. Or else everyone near the experiment would perish…

And these masters were not in small numbers. After all, the blood was drawn from the entire country… Thinking until this point, Lu Shu halted his thoughts. There was too much work to be done for this testing, there were millions of high schools in the entire country! On top of that, there were primary schools, secondary schools, and even colleges. Lu Shu thought that the government probably had a more efficient and higher skilled method.

Xi Fei continued, “We classified the aptitude into 6 tiers, ABCDEF. We use the classification to differentiate the potential. Later, you guys will be able to see what tier you belong to. Of course, I want to say one more thing. Your tier does not determine your future accomplishments. The training still requires much dedication. If anyone cannot tolerate this lonely journey of training, feel free to quit.”

At this moment, Xi Fei didn’t mention what would happen if they quit, but everyone couldn’t help but think about it.

Xi Fei didn’t say much about it, and created a class chat group, “I will announce everyone’s aptitude in the class group. Everyone may go take a look.”

Lu Shu picked his eyebrows. There was an evident difference in their aptitudes, and directly sending this to the class group would agitate everyone. Could it be that he wanted to split the class according to their strengths? Just like exams in the past, when academic results were used. Now it’s declaration of their aptitudes and even their training progress in future?

This was to force everyone to improve!

It seemed like the government was calm and collected in handling this matter, but this did not mean they were kind!

Seeing Xi Fei send the document in the chat group, everyone immediately opened it, curious to find out their own aptitudes. If they could have tier A aptitude, wouldn’t that mean their training will be much easier in future?

Some of their faces changed when they opened the document. Some were happy, while there were some who didn’t utter a word.

Lu Shu wasn’t that impatient. He looked from top to bottom, wanting to understand what was the standard in his class.

No one belonged to tier A while there were 3 in B, namely Liu Li, the new deskie Jiang Shuyi, and a name which was foreign to him.

Lu Shu looked over at Liu Li, only to notice that he could no longer hide his joy. In contrast, his deskie Jiang Shuyi was calm and collected, with no evident emotion shown on his face. How many people actually thought that Jiang Shuyi was a girl? Lu Shu thought interestingly.

Jiang Shuyi chose to be his deskie this afternoon. Who knew what this person was thinking, choosing the floor mat beside Lu Shu.

Scrolling down, he saw more tier C’s, around 25% of the class. Then there was tier D, which consisted about two-thirds. There was a small number of tier E students remaining.

This meant that everyone was at about the same level, and tier B was already considered to be very good aptitude. Since tier A existed, it meant that there were definitely tier A rated people within the black coats. Where else could tier A come from?

It seemed like there would always be someone stronger no matter the tier.

Lu Shu then looked at his own class… Damn it, he was one of the three students in tier F!
