nRandy made his way towards the smiling dummy that was positioned in the middle of the opened space in steady but quick steps.

n…

nAt the Measuring Section, behind the translucent glass window.

nAt this moment, the person next to the reception girl suddenly spoke,

"Is this the brat who came to test and register his awakened ability?

"

n

"Yes sir.

" The reception girl replied in a respectful tone.

n

"Hmm… Interesting, there aren't that many naturally awakened individuals lately ever since the establishment of the awakening center that is.

" The person then spoke with his interest piqued.

nThe reception girl did not understand why he said that and silently thought to herself.

n'Is it really that special to awaken naturally?'

nThe person continued to speak after a moment,

"In any case, let us wait and see. Oh, did you happen to ask what type of ability he had awakened?

"

nThe reception girl snapped out of her thoughts and instantly replied but then hesitated afterwards,

"I did sir, but it's…

"

n

"What is it?

" The person turned to her and demanded.

n

"It is a reinforcement-type sir.

" She replied in a low tone.

n

"Oh.

" The person raised his eyebrows slightly in surprise and muttered,

"So a reinforcement-type ability… those are not the rarest of abilities, in fact there are many people with this type of abilities out there, but still we may perhaps receive a surprise this time, since you never know.

"

n

"Eh?

"

nThe person ended his statement in a slight mysterious tone, rousing the curiosity of the reception girl next to him.

n

"Why do you think so, sir?

" The reception girl asked in curiosity.

nThe person paused for a brief moment before carefully explaining to her,

"You see… you may not know this, but those who awakened naturally always had a good head start when compared to those who forcefully awaken their abilities early on. That is also one of the factors why those prominent families are able to have that much status in this world. And the reason for that is due to the fact almost if not all their children awakened their abilities naturally without having to rely on artificial means or method like we do in the awakening center.

"

n

"Ah, so that's why.

" The reception girl displayed a realization expression as she heard this.

nSoon, she drew her attention to the opened space where a figure was silently approaching a dummy in the middle, with her interest piqued in this undergoing physical measurement.

nAt this moment, she had an anticipation expression on her pretty face.

n…

nMeasurement Area, the opened space.

nAt this point, Randy had approached the dummy, standing only half a meter away from it, he immediately assumed a stance with his fist clenched. He had already practiced basic fist techniques before, so this was not an issue for him.

nHe took in a deep breath and then rushed forward with his fist clenched as he decisively threw a punch against the dummy that was made up of some elastic material.

n

"Bam!

"

nA sound of his fist landing on the chest of the dummy resounded in the opened space.

nDespite the impact from his punch, the dummy was still stationary without any visible changes happening to it almost as if this weight of this punch was its base or standard when it was made.

n…

nBehind the translucent glass window.

nOn the projected computer screen that displayed the recorded results conducted by the measurement machine, numbers started appearing in an increment:

n{100}

n{200}

n{300 }

n{400}

nIt was only after reaching 400 did the number scrolling on the projected screen stopped changing.

n

"4-400 pounds physical strength! Isn't that equivalent to a C-rank?!

"

nThe reception girl exclaimed in a surprised voice, as usually most people who just awakened only had between a 100 pounds and a 200 pounds.

nSometimes, some people even had less than a 100 pounds. So one could understand the reason for her sudden reaction when she saw Randy's base physical strength.

nThe person next to her only displayed a smile when he saw this and then muttered,

"See, what did I tell you? This kid is without a doubt a natural awakener with that base statistical strength of his.

"

nHe then urged,

"Hurry up and tell him to him to use his ability so we can measure that as well

"

n

"Oh, okay.

"

nThe reception girl snapped out of her surprised state and then announced though sound system: Your measurement has been recorded: 400 pounds in physical strength! You can now use your ability to attack the dummy to further measure your physical strength after being reinforced with your ability!

nRandy listened to this and only slightly nodded his head in acceptance. Just now, he had used his full physical strength without overexerting himself, so it was naturally only a 400 pounds just as displayed on his status screen.

nHowever, if he had overexerted himself just now, it is not impossible to reach at least a 500 pounds in his physical strength.

nAfter thinking that, Randy then took in a deep breath again and breathed out slowly and abruptly activated his reinforcement ability, (Strength of the Werewolf King).

nInstantly, the air around him rippled a bit and his form gradually changed as his hair gradually turned white, however just like at the time when he showed Jiang Chen his transformed state when he visited him, there were no fangs nor were they any claws on this form that he took.

nHe decided to use only 10% of the reinforcement ability as he did not want to attract too much attention for now, and only steadily raised his ranks in the future.

nAfter all, he was still just a high student, so having that much drastic change in his strength, even if it was just physical strength, it will still elicit some unwanted troubles from the unknown.

n…

nBehind the translucent glass window.

n

"A white hair, huh? Is that his innate ability's trait?

"

nAt this moment, the person muttered in surprise and then continued,

"Is this similar to those people from the Silvermoon family? Or perhaps something different? No, it should be different as those people were born with their hair already turned white; Ever since their mysterious ancestor obtained the white hair as they awakened their ability, the subsequent family members all obtained this trait of white hair and now it has become their symbol.

"

nThe reception girl on the other hand was entranced as she found this form of Randy very attractive and mesmerizing. Right now, he looked so mysterious and exotic with that form of his, especially those pair of yellowish green eyes of his that makes one become attracted to them without them being aware of it themselves.

nAfter pondering for a bit, the person then turned to the entranced reception girl and then said in a confused tone,

"What are you waiting for? Tell me him to strike the dummy now with his transformed state.

"

n

"Ah, right.

"

nShe immediately snapped out of her daze and then announced through the sound system: E-Everything is ready so you can strike the dummy anytime you want!

nHearing her urging voice, Randy appeared doubtful and then asked,

"Is it really okay to strike it with my full power in my transformed state?

"

n

"Don't worry about that and hit it with all you've got; you don't have to worry about breaking it since it can handle up to an A-rank physical strength.

" A sudden unknown voice said to him in assurance.

nRandy was surprised slightly by this new voice that came out of nowhere, but still took a stance right away after their assuring voice, and then he clenched his fist without hesitation and aimed his fist at the smiling dummy.

n

"BAM!!

"

nA loud impact of the doll-like dummy being collided with his fist resounded as the doll-like dummy twisted a little and immediately returned to place as if nothing had happened.

n

"Huh?

" Randy was dumfounded as he saw that this elastic smiling dummy appears to still be displaying an indifferent smile on its countenance even after he went all out and smashed it with his full strength just now.

n'No wonder he said not to worry about breaking the smiling dummy, it turns out it was very malleable, durable and doesn't sustain any damage no matter how much force is used.' Randy thought in amazement as he looked at undamaged dummy.

n…

nOn the projected screen, numbers kept scrolling down once again.

n{100}

n{200}

n{300}

n{400}

n{500}

n{600}

n.

n{500}

nAfter it stopped scrolling, the final result was shown. The person and reception girl watched this with bated breaths and finally let out a long breath of relief when the final result was shown on the projected screen.

n

"Phew… I thought it was 600 pounds for a second there. If it was 600 pounds then that will be crazy, even if it was just his physical state without any mana imbued in his fist. Nonetheless, this level of strength is still astonishing.

" The person muttered in relief and astonishment.

nThe reception girl also nodded her head in agreement with a dazed expression.

nResults: 500 pounds for physical strength, proportional ranking is: B-rank The voice from before resounded again announcing the final results.

nWith that, the physical strength measurement came to an end.

nA while later, the reception girl came and guided Randy to another room, but for some reason, a strange middle-aged man also tagged along with them as they went to the other room.. This person was probably the man standing next to the reception girl and also the owner the voice that announced the final results.

n
