"Um?"
Lin was surprised that the Cheese-scented Senior would actually talk to him. He froze for a moment, then looked up to see the Unicorn Senior's sweet smile.
Seeing that smile and smelling the sweet Cheese aroma, Lin couldn't help but let his thoughts wander, secretly thinking: If I could use the Senior to make Cheese, it would definitely taste great...
"Hey, classmate, what's your name?"
The Unicorn Senior thought Lin hadn't heard her clearly and repeated the question, breaking Lin's "evil yet wonderful" fantasy.
"Lin."
He forced out a stiff smile and answered softly. He was still not good at socializing, especially in such passive moments; Lin always appeared indifferent.
However, this indifference appeared to the Senior as being dazed and quite cute, prompting her to giggle and think to herself: He's just a shy big boy.
Little did the Unicorn Senior know that Lin was not shy at all! He simply had communication difficulties; he was a half-mute! Just managing to smile was already a big deal for him!
"Hello, Lin. My name is Snow Dance. I might be your future Senior."
Snow Dance initially wanted to mention her school but suddenly remembered the rules of the Star League Examination and quickly changed her words. The abrupt shift made her speech sound awkward, but Lin seemed not to notice and just nodded.
"Hello, Senior!" Lin's stiff smile persisted, looking even worse than crying, which made Snow Dance laugh again.
"Is this how you greet a Senior? Our school is quite difficult to get into. If you want to come here, you'll need to work hard!"
After encouraging Lin Yi with those words, Snow Dance didn't say much more; she had no time to continue talking with him since they had already entered the examination area.
Lin looked up and gazed ahead, feeling a mix of excitement and slight nervousness.
Finally, he stepped into the "Life and Death Eight Gates Formation."
Looking back at the group of boys behind him, none were paying attention to the examination site; they were all fixated on Lin's back, exuding an air of resentment.
"How could he talk to Snow Dance Senior! This isn't fair!" all the boys were silently shouting.
Lin must be more handsome than them!
As long as that guy Lu Liang, who looked like a top star, didn't come out to steal the spotlight, Lin was still outstanding. His slightly cold and handsome face would make anyone take a second glance.
But that wasn't even Lin's most charming trait; his most appealing quality was the comfortable feeling he gave people the more they looked at him. Perhaps Lin inherited some special charm from his father—his charismatic aura.
Ordinary people could never receive the treatment that Lin Jin got, even if Fatty drew everyone's attention.
The reason he could get by with that wooden face was because of his special qualities, though he himself didn't understand it.
For those who always had a crowd around them and were the center of attention wherever they went, if you analyze it, they definitely possess something you don't have—either vast amounts of money, handsome looks, or that toxic allure...
Clearly, Lin belonged to the attractive type; even when he wore a dull expression and didn't speak, others felt comfortable standing next to him.
...
Snow Dance rushed into the examination room, currently exchanging something with the proctor, while Lin Ta and the others were instructed to stand still and wait.
With some time on their hands, Lin began to look around.
The examination room wasn't as mysterious or strict as he had imagined, which made Lin Shu, who had been nervous just moments ago, let out a sigh of relief.
This feeling was reminiscent of when he took his college entrance exam years ago; seeing that the examination room was just desks and chairs with paper and pens—it wasn't a big deal; it was just an exam.
The interior of the examination room was large and divided into over a hundred sections separated by metal railings. Each section housed many machines that looked less like a test setup and more like a medical examination facility.
In the Star Ocean Era, advanced technology had already made it possible to digitize a warrior's physical data, so the exam wasn't too complicated; it just required cooperation with the machines.
As Lin was observing, Snow Dance waved at them from across the room, signaling for them to come over. The group quickly moved towards her call.
"Alright, students, just follow the instructions of the proctor and don't be nervous. Do your best on the exam!"
A sweet voice rang out as Snow Dance waved her arms to cheer for the team!
Lin Ta and the others felt fortunate to have such a good-natured instructor like Snow Dance, who offered them warm encouragement in every detail.
In the end, Snow Dance winked at Lin and quietly encouraged him, "Lin, do well on the exam. I hope you can get into our academy."
"Thank you, I'll do my best," Lin replied flatly, nodding awkwardly.
"Alright then, Lin, goodbye!"
With that handover complete, Snow Dance needed to go meet the next group of students. She didn't linger and turned to leave.
Lin merely glanced at her without giving it much thought; after all, she was just a passerby in his life.
The starry sea was so vast that he had no idea which academy this senior was from. Even if she came from Wuyuan Star, where there were five hundred sixty-one schools, the chances of him encountering her again were slim.
So, they probably only had a fleeting connection, and neither of them thought much about it.
Little did they know that they would have more exciting stories in the future.
However, Lin felt that this senior had a very special scent about her; it smelled delicious…
……
"Lin."
As Snow Dance left, Lin's exam officially began. The proctor called out his name loudly, and he quickly composed himself, stepping into the designated area to submit his identification card and Identity Crystal Card.
Inside the railing was a table with precise instruments on it. There were two proctors: one tall and thin sat in front of the instruments recording data, while the other, a bearded man, cheerfully guided students through the test.
Just now, the one called Lin is this bearded man.
The bearded man led Lin to the equipment, first handing the Number Tag and Identity Crystal Card to the Tall and Thin person, then pointing to a machine emitting green light, saying, "Lin, please step on it, place your hands on the fingerprint verification device, and align your face with the facial recognition device. Please do not blink; we will conduct an iris scan."
This single device was set to thoroughly examine Lin from head to toe to confirm his identity, revealing how strict the Warrior Examination was behind its seemingly relaxed atmosphere.
Taking a deep breath, Lin stepped onto the scanner.
Green light began to shine from above Lin's head and scanned downwards. At the same time, his palms lit up, and a green beam passed over his eyes.
"Candidate Lin, identity confirmed. Pre-exam level: Mediocre Talent. Subjects studied: Ordinary. Currently not qualified for the examination!"
The synthesized voice from the scanner left Lin momentarily stunned.
At the same time, the bearded man beside him was also taken aback. The teacher, Tall and Thin, cast a look of astonishment at Lin, while the group of students behind him erupted in an uproar!
"What is this guy doing here? He's just a Mediocre Talent muggle!"
"What the heck? It's been over ten years since anyone dared to disrupt the Warrior Qualification Exam! This kid has some guts!"
"Wow, I must have misjudged; I thought that Fatty had enough guts, but this guy is even bolder—he's practically eaten bear hearts and leopard gallbladders!"
The chaotic voices of argument rang out behind Lin, jolting him back to reality.
