Arcane Academy: The Divine Extraction Legacy
Chapter 64 Vale's Spirit StrandsThe students who were also discussing the Pride Pomegranate noticed that Vale's result was taking too much time.
"Was it broken?"
"That makes sense. There must be a malfunction after assessing a couple of 16 spirit strands and 17 spirit strands."
"Hmph! That Spirit Converging Crystal probably has a limit of 30 spirit strands. It won't malfunction just by testing us."
"Then why is he taking a long time?"
"Perhaps, he can't even produce a single strand?" Neil commented lazily. He doesn't really care about Vale's result.
"Haha! That would be embarrassing… Jody, you should publish it in our Academy Publication if he's unable to produce a single strand."
"Tsk… I haven't even joined them yet. They still want to test me." Jody replied while shaking her head.
Of course, she also thought that it would be an interesting article so she was watching Vale carefully. The test she needed to pass in order to join the club was to write an article after all.
She was already thinking of writing about Leonore's result since she's the most interesting person she knows at the moment. However, if Vale really obtained a Zero Strand result, that might be a very funny story and would give her a better chance of passing the test.
However, after ten minutes a result finally came up… This time, Professor Harwin finally showed a reaction… She was first shocked after seeing the number of strands before looking at Vale very seriously.
"Vale Chambers. Twenty-Five Strands." Professor Harwin announced.
"…"
No one reacted after hearing Vale's result but they all look dumbfounded.
"Twenty-five? That's so amazing!" Lisa reacted after processing it in her mind.
"Indeed… What kind of training did you do to reach this level?!" Chad asked with genuine curiosity. He knows fully well how difficult it was to increase someone's spiritual force.
Although developing your Spirit at an early age is much easier compared to when you're older, it should be impossible to exceed the 20-Strand limit!
"Twenty-five? Can I see the result, Professor?" Neil asked as he couldn't help but doubt what he just heard.
The others also nodded their heads since they have never heard someone of their age have this kind of Spiritual Force.
"That's right! Show us the crystal!"
"We need to make sure that it's not tampered with!"
"Having twenty-five strands is just too unbelievable. I'm unconvinced. Please allow me to see the result as well!"
Vale was stunned after hearing the sudden accusation. He didn't look at his classmates who seem to have been offended by his result but looked at the Professor who has been trying to show an indifferent expression all this time.
The latter appears amused after hearing their accusations.
"You can't believe that Vale managed to obtain such a result?" Professor Harwin asked.
"I-it's not that we're doubting you, Professor. We just want to see it to make sure." Neil replied.
"I've been handling numerous Spirit Converging Crystal in my family. I've learned that they can malfunction if they're damaged."
"Yes, he's right… We're just worried that we'll not get his real result. It's also for Vale's sake."
It came from Roswell Curtis and Larry Hegan, two of Neil's lackeys who only obtained 4 Spirit Strands.
"Very well. Vale, show it to them…" Professor Harwin nodded as she felt that there was nothing wrong with showing it to them.
However, Vale's friends didn't take this lightly.
"Professor! Isn't that a bit too much? They're doubting your ability to count the number of Strands. If there is something wrong with the Spirit Convergin Crystal, there's no way you wouldn't notice it as well."
"That's right! They're just trying to cause trouble."
Chad and Blair spoke in turn.
Neil and his friends wanted to argue but Vale spoke first. He didn't want to make this a big deal.
"It's fine… Let them check it. It's probably their first time seeing someone with 25 strands." Vale said with a chuckle as he passed it to them.
Chad and Blair also laughed as they understood Vale's intention.
The strands wouldn't disappear quickly so Vale just tossed it over to Neil's group. It would take some time and it's enough for Neil's group to count the number of Strands.
They can also check that the crystal is not damaged or malfunctioning if they tested themselves again.
Vale returned to his seat as Neil looked at him viciously. He was offended by Vale's words but he decided not to express his anger for now.
He immediately checked the crystal only to confirm that Professor Stella Harwin was right.
'Twenty-five strands… How is this possible? Even some of the sixth-year students wouldn't have this many strands!' Neil was seriously questioning Vale's identity right now.
The Chambers Family doesn't have anything in their name that can allow one of their members to achieve such a result.
He can somehow understand Aubrey Hall's uniqueness since she has a huge merchant family behind her. She was simply lucky. Her rich father might've spent a huge amount of money to procure potions or sacrificed enormous wealth to call upon a mysterious existence to help her possess a high level of spiritual force.
She might even be possessed by this existence right now.
It was the same for Warren who was lucky to be fed with a legendary fruit. His story might be an exaggeration but there is still a chance that it's true.
As for Dalton, he might've just inherited his talent from his ancestor since he had heard that the Stranway Family was previously a loyal servant of a deceased king. Not many people know of this but his Sommerhalder Family knows this well.
Neil took a deep breath as he calmed his thoughts.
pαndα`noνɐ1~сoМ He can only accept that he has seven classmates that have better baselines than him.
"It's real… Congratulations on having the highest Spirit Strands in our class." Neil gritted his teeth as he congratulated Vale's achievement.
Vale didn't think too much of this achievement since he wasn't even competing against him. However, he still smiled and acknowledged Neil's words.
In his mind, he was actually feeling quite helpless…
'My problem is probably the fact this number of strands wouldn't increase for quite a while unless I managed to find a corpse in the Academy…' Vale sighed inwardly as he was starting to consider if he has to use the Headmaster's "opportunity."
