The Infinite Mystery Novel

Chapter 3 - Birthmark


After the world changed, the Alliance divided the exams into two parts, Knowledge Exam and Martial Exam.

Knowledge Exams were similar to the previous entrance exams, they were all tested for normal cultural and scientific knowledge. On the other hand, Martial Exams were special examinations that appeared solely for the sake of developing Martial Warriors.

The qualification to participate in the Martial Exam’s was to awaken a battle spirit. Only then could one possess the qualifications to participate in Martial Exams.

Ever since the human race developed the Martial Warrior’s education system, basically all the children with Battle spirit were raised to become the pillars of the nation, and the human race’s strength also became more and more powerful.

“Student Hao, You have already tested many times, and because the Spirit Pearl can’t be wrong, you should go down!”

At this moment, the middle-aged man who was also the homeroom teacher, looked helplessly at the student called Hao, who was still unwilling to let his hands off the Spirit Pearl.

Even if one’s parents are awakened one, there was still a very low chance that their children might not become one of the awakened ones.

At this moment, the Spirit Pearl was dim, this was the symbol that the person being tested did not have the talent to awaken a battle spirit. If a person possessed the talent to awaken a battle spirit, the Spirit Summoning Pearl would emit a variety of coloured lights.

Yellow, orange, pink, red, blue, green, violet, purple, and black! While the Yellow represents lowest talent and black represent highest talent.

There were also tiers above these colours but in a small city like the Blue Cloud City, no one has ever appeared with even violet colour talent let alone the tiers above these colours.

The student called Hao went down the stage with a dispirited look.

The test continue…

Soon after, more and more students came forward to touch the Spirit Pearl. At this moment, the exam was already halfway through. Nearly half of the students of the ninth class had already gone through the test. Almost all the students made the Spirit Pearl to lit up with different different colour.

There were also some students who failed to lit up the Spirit Pearl which meant that they did not had talent to awaken the battle Spirit.

“Lin Hui, come over here and take your test!” The homeroom teacher waved at Lin Hui and said with a smile.

Under the teacher’s invitation, Lin Hui slowly walked in front of the Spirit Pearl. He took a deep breath and then slowly placed both his hands on the Spirit Pearl.

The transparent pearl started to change its colour instantly. Strands of faint red light started to appear in the Spirit Pearl. Immediately, everyone’s eyes were attracted by this faint light, as if this was the most wonderful light in the world.

“That’s right, looks like our class has a child with a talent to awaken a rank 4 battle spirit. Don’t forget about the teachers and school when you become successful in the future!” The homeroom teacher pretended to be calm as he nodded his head. In fact, his heart was already blooming with happiness.

For a seedling with a rank 4 talent to appear within a class, it was also a great honour for him, a teacher. It would also be beneficial to his future career.

“Lin Hui actually has the talent to awaken a rank 4 battle spirit.”

“I knew that Lin Hui would definitely be someone favoured by the heavens!”

“Lin Hui, I look pretty good right, how about I be your girlfriend!”

At this time, everyone surrounded Lin Hui, as if they were a group of fanatical fans who had seen their idol.

It was very difficult to find a talent to awaken a rank 5 battle spirit in the Blue Cloud City. So, after awakening a rank 4 talent, Lin Hui became the center of everyone’s attraction.

Even those whose parents were only ordinary people, started to praise Lin Hui except for Qin Feng.

Qin Feng did not had any good impression of Lin Hui and because of this, at this time, he was not even looking at him.

Lin Hui also saw that Qin Feng didn’t have the slightest intention of celebrating. He was immediately angered by Qin Feng but he suppressed the anger within his heart. He has already decided to let Qin Feng know the price of provoking him.

At this moment, he even forgot that he was the one who mocked Qin Feng first not Qin Feng.

“Damn it! He is too detestable!” Lin Hui couldn’t help but get furious in his heart, but on the surface, he was still like a spring breeze, so it was impossible to tell that he was angry at all.

“Now, all of you can come and test if you have the talent to awaken the battle spirit or not!” The homeroom teacher looked at the students whose parents are just ordinary people and said.

One by one, students began to go to the stage and test. Very few people out of all the students managed to lit up the Spirit Pearl.

Now, it was Qin Feng’s turn!

He went on the stage and arrived in front of the Spirit Pearl and looked at it.

“Student Qin Feng, put your hand on the Spirit Pearl!” said the middle-aged man.

Qin Feng extended his hands and put them on the Spirit Pearl. Soon, the Spirit Pearl lit up with red light.

“What? This Qin Feng also possess the talent to awaken a rank 4 battle spirit!”

“How is this possible? His mother is only an ordinary human who works at the roadside restaurant, how can he have the rank 4 talent?”

“This is awesome! Finally, among us, one person appeared that can rival Lin Hui in terms of talent!”

Many students started to talk among themselves in a low voice.

Qin Feng was also surprised when he saw that he actually possess the talent to awaken a rank 4 battle spirit. It means, he can become a Martial Warrior and make his mother’s life comfortable.

When he thought about it, he immediately became excited.

“Good, good! Haha, finally our class have two students with rank 4 talent!” The homeroom teacher also laughed out loudly when he saw the red light flickering in the Spirit Pearl.

Qin Feng withdrew his hands and went back to the place he was standing before. When he withdrew his hands, he noticed that the back of his right hand started to itch very hard.

He started to scrap the back of his right hand with the left hand. If one will see at his right hand, they can see that there was a strange tattoo there. In reality, it was his birthmark.

This birthmark was actually a horizontal 8. This symbol also represents ‘infinity’.

Qin Feng has the ‘infinity’ symbol as his birthmark. It never reacted before but now, it suddenly started to itch.

Qin Feng thought that maybe, it was because he just tested his talent with his right hand so he did not pay much attention on it.

And the itching also stopped after some time.. Qin Feng started to feel comfortable and soon forgot about the itching.
