Chapter 354 Astonishing Score
"Name?"
"Zytherion Myraldor."
"Home world?"
"Mythraldor."
"Mythraldor? Never heard of it."
"It's a newly discovered one. You could say we come from a primitive galaxy."
"Oh, interesting..." The administrative official narrowed his eyes at Aengus' half-hearted reply but decided against pressing further. He wasn't able detect any lies either.
In a realm as vast and boundless as theirs, it wasn't uncommon for stars, planets, and entire systems to be born and destroyed within moments. Keeping track of every celestial entity was an impossible task they had yet to master.
Moreover, the academy's regulations didn't mandate deep scrutiny into a student's background—at least, not on the surface. Hidden investigations were another matter entirely.
The man scribbled something onto his tablet before continuing. "Alright, let's proceed with the formalities. You'll need to undergo a basic combat and law aptitude test to finalize your registration."
"Alright," Aengus replied calmly.

From there, he was led into a room equipped with various devices, and a group of seven sharp-eyed elderly men observed from a viewing platform above.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
"Student, step inside," Amir instructed, pointing toward the training room filled with wooden dolls wielding real, razor-sharp swords. "Survive their attacks for five minutes without being hit even once, and you'll pass the test."
Aengus stepped in, his demeanor confident and nonchalant, which immediately piqued the interest of the observers.
"Good, this lad isn't a coward," one of the older men remarked with a smirk. "Most of the previous students would hesitate, flinch, or even falter at the thought of getting hurt. I see none of those qualities in him. He's a seedling worth nurturing."
"Eh, don't be so quick to judge, old man," another chimed in skeptically. "What if he's just bluffing, putting on a show to hide his nerves?"
"Bluffing or not, someone with mastery of Space Law isn't likely to underestimate their own abilities," the first man retorted. "Let's see how he handles himself."
Moments later, the results flashed on the screen:
Combat: 100/100
Law Comprehension—Space (Estimated): 3.4%
Potential: 93 / 100
Overall Score: 95.7%
"That's amazing! Another Supreme Talent with Supreme Law!"
"96%... Haha! See? I told you he'd achieve an impressive score!" the old man who had been optimistic earlier said smugly, glancing at the discontented elder with a victorious grin.
The other elder, whose face burned with embarrassment, merely shrugged. "Well, whatever... He's good, but I still think he's holding back too much. There's more to this boy than he's letting on."
"Well, that shows the wise side of this young man. One should never be too arrogant or conceited like I once was. I'm liking the young man more and more. He's young, handsome, and full of potential. He could be a World Dominator eventually if things go right," one elder remarked with a nod of approval.
"If you like him so much, why don't you marry him to your granddaughter, old man?" another teased.
"Oh, that I would have, if only I had one..."
Amir interrupted, stepping into the conversation,
"Elders, enough, enough. If the evaluation is over, I should proceed with his admission."
The elders fell silent, though their gazes toward Aengus now held a spark of piqued interest.
Surely, the announcement of his Supreme Talent with an 96% score would create ripples throughout the Academy.
Aengus observed their reactions, realizing he may have overdone things.
"Whatever..." he muttered with a shrug.
He knew this would put him in the spotlight for a while, but he also understood that he wasn't the only one with Supreme Talent in Tiamat Academy.
With that, he followed Amir to complete the rest of the formalities for admission.
