Barging into a Magic World after Returning from Xianxia - Chapter 30
“Second place… one-star magical talent.”
“Third place… No magic talent.”
“Sixteenth place… two-star magic talent.”
Time passed, and the old butler spoke in a clear voice.
The children whose talent was tested spread out one by one. Some had the talent to cultivate magic, which meant that they would be valued by the family.
As for the children who did not have talent, they would gradually disappear from everyone’s sight. When they reached adulthood, they would be sent out to manage the family’s assets and businesses.
It was not hard to imagine that the identities of the two batches of children would be very different in the future.
Different from the reactions of these children, the faces of the Nolan family members on the field began to turn increasingly ugly.
Until now, there was actually not a single disciple that was three stars or above, not to mention a four-star talent that was comparable to the other families.
This undoubtedly caused a layer of dust to be buried in the hearts of everyone, and the atmosphere became oppressive.
On the other hand, the members of the Ingrid and Murphy families laughed out loud without any regard for their feelings.
“Hahaha, the Nolan family is really getting more and more powerful. They have a successor. Look, there’s actually a two-star talent child.”
“It’s really scary. When this child grows up, he won’t be able to kill me with one slap.”
“Hahaha, with this talent, they have the nerve to call themselves one of the three major families in town. Stop talking nonsense.”
The people from the two big families openly mocked them.
Hearing this, the eyes of the people from the Nolan family burned with anger. They all gritted their teeth and looked at the people from the other families.
They didn’t understand why the grand ancestor had to let these people attend the ceremony. It was like throwing a stone at their own feet.
Now, if the news spread out, they would lose face on the streets in the future.
The three grand ancestors sitting at the highest viewing table and the mayor of the town had different expressions.
Ingrid’s grand ancestor sneered and said to August, “So you want me to watch how useless your family is.”
“Just these few children. Sigh, your family has declined.” Grand ancestor Murphy was very sympathetic to August, but his eyes did not hide his ridicule.
Only the town mayor, Wilson, comforted him, “This year won’t do. Let’s see what happens next year. A family may not only rely on a period of children to be strong for a long time.”
“If I remember correctly, in the past ten years, the Nolan family has only had one child with a three-star talent. They don’t even have a four-star talent,” Drew, the head of the Ingrid family, added sinisterly.
At the same time, he looked at the four-star talent child of his family standing behind him and was very satisfied.
Hearing their words, August was not angry. He was still very calm.
The old butler who was testing all the children’s talents continued to shout out the results of the child’s talent to the people present.
However, until the last person…
There was no child whose talent had exceeded two stars.
The people of the Nolan family felt very uncomfortable.
Especially the head of the family, Lance. He looked as if he had eaten a fly and had a bitter expression on his face.
“What should we do? This year’s children are too disappointing.”
“This is really beyond our expectations. This is too hard to accept.”
“How could there not even be a three-star child with magic talent?”
Everyone’s expressions were sorrowful.
Just when everyone thought that the magic talent test was about to end and the Nolan family’s reputation would fall from now on…
The old butler still did not stop speaking. He continued to speak in a clear voice, “The 22nd child, Christina. Come up and do your talent test.”
“Christina?”
The hundreds of people on the field were instantly stunned.
Some even suspected that they had heard wrongly.
Everyone in the town knew Christina’s name.
How could they not?
When Christina was born, the head of the Nolan family, Lance, had openly announced to the public that a peerless genius had appeared in the Nolan family.
The entire town was filled with anticipation for Christina, wanting to know how talented she was.
As the eldest daughter of this generation of the Nolan family, she had gathered countless hopes within her family.
It was not until she was ten years old that when Christina pressed her hand on the talent stone and there was no reaction from the talent stone.
It only then did everyone know that the genius girl was just a joke.
It was also from that moment on that their attitude toward Christina became more and more indifferent.
This matter had become a joke that the entire town often talked about.
Because of this, Lance was filled with hatred toward his own daughter, thinking that it was Christina who caused him to lose face.
“If I remember correctly, Chris seemed to have tested her talent three years ago, right?”
“You didn’t remember wrongly. She was publicly recognized as a piece of trash back then.”
“What’s wrong with the Nolan Family? Are they going to make us laugh again?”
Some people who didn’t know the situation whispered in the ears of the people beside them.
While they were talking, Christina, who was dressed in plain clothes, walked to the fighting arena.
She had already arrived here a long time ago but didn’t appear in front of everyone.
Her appearance instantly attracted everyone’s attention.
Many teenagers who were in their puberty saw the beautiful Christina, and their eyes showed an unconcealed desire to conquer her.
At fourteen years old, she was already well-off and had a graceful figure.
“Miss Christina, if the Nolan family doesn’t like you, you can marry into the Ingrid family. I will definitely treat you well.”
“Hahaha, I have a three-star talent. If Christina wants to marry, she should marry me.”
“Shh, stop testing. No matter what, it’s impossible for her to have a talent for cultivation.”
Many young people on the field laughed and jeered. They hissed, not optimistic about Christina’s results.
Christina did not care about the voices of these people. She slowly walked to the talent testing stone. After receiving the signal from the old butler, she slowly placed her palm on the talent testing stone.
It was the same feeling as before. Christina felt a warm current rush into her body.
At this moment, the talent testing stone suddenly erupted with dazzling light.
It was now even brighter than daylight itself. Many people’s eyes were tightly shut.
Only after they got used to it did they slowly open their eyes.
When they saw the six dazzling stars on the talent testing stone, everyone’s jaws dropped to the ground.
