I Truly Have Average Talents - Chapter 5

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Over the weekend, Liu Chuan did not stay idle. Since he could not use the Soul Power Crystals, he gave them all to Wang Meng.

Wang Meng himself had no way of absorbing these Soul Power Crystals, so he was prepared to sell all of them at the crystal shops on the streets.

After dealing with these Soul Power Crystals, Liu Chuan also earned a small sum of living expenses.

Although Soul Power Crystals were relatively low-leveled crystals, they were also relatively rare dimensional crystals. The final selling price was acceptable, and each person received about 20,000 Federal coins.

This money seemed easy to earn, but it was not.

The attribute crystal drop rate in this dimensional zone wasn’t high to begin with. Furthermore, dimensional creatures weren’t that easy to kill. Thus, it was a risky job.

There were only a few martial artists in Ping An County where Liu Chuan and the rest were. In the end, it was because the place was too small.

Wang Meng’s aptitude was superior to that of many others in Ping An County. One had to know that there hadn’t been any quasi-martial artists in Ping An County for several years.

Two days passed by quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was Monday and the two of them went to school together as usual.

Due to the increase in his level, Liu Chuan’s spirit had completely changed. He was no longer a slightly dispirited bookworm.

Once a person had confidence, their aura would increase. With a height of 180cm, the originally delicate and pretty Liu Chuan actually started to look a little handsome.

Furthermore, with this temperament, more people would turn their heads to look at him.

Both of them had decent appearances. One was tanned, while the other was pale. On the way, many people looked at them with admiration.

Wang Meng said narcissistically, “What do you think? I’m handsome, right? Even the junior sister from earlier was smitten by me.”

“She was looking at me. I woke up early this morning and looked in the mirror. Guess what happened. Sigh, I became handsome again,” Liu Chuan retorted with a wicked smile.

“F*ck, why are you more shameless than me?”

“You are indeed shameless, while I’m telling the truth.”

Wang Meng was speechless.

The two of them joked and laughed as they arrived at the classroom. Not long after they sat down, someone walked over.

Liu Chuan looked at the person. It was the class monitor, Lin Sisi.

Lin Sisi was also a famous beauty in Ping An High School.

Although she couldn’t be said to be a country-toppling beauty, she could still be considered a natural beauty. Not only was Lin Sisi beautiful, her results were also very good.

Old Li was very satisfied with her and chose her to be the class monitor.

Lin Sisi didn’t try to be vague. “Wang Meng, I heard that this year’s martial examination might include a team trial. How about you team up with me?”

“Class Monitor, it’s not that I want to reject you. It’s just that my brother can’t do without me.” Wang Meng winked at Liu Chuan as he spoke.

When Lin Sisi heard this, she frowned and said, “You know Liu Chuan’s results too. Although his results in the cultural class are alright, his cultivation level can only be considered average.”

“Alright, Lin Sisi, that’s enough. There’s no point in talking anymore. Please go back.” Wang Meng’s expression immediately turned serious, and his tone was somewhat stern.

Wang Meng hated it the most when people criticized Liu Chuan. Before Lin Sisi could finish her sentence, Wang Meng interrupted her, not even addressing her as class monitor.

Liu Chuan didn’t mind. After all, he was indeed a noob in the past and his talent was average.

These were all facts.

Moreover, he had already become stronger, so this didn’t stimulate his heart at all.

Lin Sisi didn’t force Wang Meng either. In reality, she didn’t mean to target Liu Chuan just now.

She was not someone who was good at communicating with others. Thus, she spoke her true thoughts.

She did not expect Wang Meng to have such a big reaction.

The moment she finished speaking, she realized that she had said something wrong.

However, she didn’t know what to say.

Just as she was about to apologize, Wang Meng pulled Liu Chuan away.

Liu Chuan didn’t say anything and just smiled at Lin Sisi, revealing his large white teeth.

Finally, Lin Sisi looked at the departing Liu Chuan seriously.

He was indeed different from the Liu Chuan she remembered.

…

“What do you think, my good brother? I’m quite generous, aren’t I? I even rejected the class belle because of you. It’s not too much to give me two drumsticks for lunch, right?” Wang Meng nudged Liu Chuan with his elbow and said with a sly smile.

Liu Chuan was about to speak when his form teacher, Old Li, walked in.

He quickly pulled Wang Meng to sit down, and the entire class fell silent. No matter which world they were in, the teacher’s power was boundless.

“Students, we won’t be having class today. Everyone already knows about the mock test, so this morning will be the physical fitness test. Everyone, get ready. Later, everyone will gather at the school’s gymnasium to test your strength first.” Old Li stood on the podium and announced to everyone.

The students in the class cheered. No matter the reason, as long as they did not have to attend class, it was worth celebrating.

In just a minute or two, the entire class of students had already lined up and headed towards the gymnasium.

“This is a strength-testing device. Ping An High School only has this one device. Although there are some small errors, it can still accurately measure the strength of the students.”

After arriving at the gymnasium, Old Li pointed to a boxing machine that looked like a punching game found in arcades and said to his students.

Of course, this machine was even more complicated and precise. The entire body of the machine was made of a special alloy, and it could withstand the strength of a Rank-C martial artist at best. Meanwhile, the interior of the machine was equipped with the latest hydraulic buffer, which could also provide considerable protection.

“Alright, when I call your name, come up one by one and begin the strength test. First place, Xie Guojie.” Old Li began to call out names.

Xie Guojie walked to the instrument and took a deep breath. He seemed to be gathering all his strength and punched the instrument panel.

Bang!

After this punch, the screen of the strength-testing device began to flicker as the numbers on the screen began to jump continuously. Finally, after the number 60 lit up, there was no more activity.

“Xie Guojie, strength test results: moderate. Next, Zhu Jiancheng,” said Old Li said as he recorded the results.

“Zhu Jiancheng, strength test results: lower-middle. Next…”

One by one, the students began to take the test. In the end, even after more than half of the students took the test, not a single student produced a good result. Old Li sighed in his heart.

“Next, Lin Sisi.”

When Old Li saw that it was Lin Sisi, a trace of hope rose in his heart.

When Lin Sisi heard this, she walked out from the crowd. Today, Lin Sisi was wearing a set of casual sportswear, but it did not cover her tall and healthy figure.

Her lustrous and black hair was tied up, giving her an indescribable charm.

Lin Sisi got into her stance. One look and everyone could tell that she was a martial arts practitioner. When she accumulated energy, it was as if she was drawing a bow. Meanwhile, when she released her energy, it was as if she was shooting an arrow.

With a dull thud, the numbers on the instrument screen lit up again and stopped at 81.

“Not bad, Lin Sisi. strength level test, Upper Rank. Next…”

Even Old Li couldn’t help but praise her. It was obvious that she had put in a lot of hard work. It wasn’t easy for a girl to reach this stage.

“The class monitor is invincible. The class monitor is amazing.”

“Sisi, you’re so awesome!”

Some of the more outgoing students in the class started cheering. Lin Sisi was indeed popular in the class. Her grades were good and she was good-looking. Who wouldn’t like her?

“Little Chuan, this girl is quite capable. What do you think? Her figure isn’t bad, right?” Wang Meng began to spout obscenities again.

After watching the test for so long, Liu Chuan had more or less figured out the average level of his classmates. Lin Sisi’s strength had truly amazed him. From her looks, she was indeed a very strong person. No wonder she had come to form a team with Wang Meng.

“Next, Wang Meng.”

Old Li’s voice sounded again.

“Little Chuan, watch me perform for you,” said Wang Meng before running over.

Wang Meng stood in front of the device and did not make any unnecessary movements. With a soft shout, a huge fist smashed onto the testing board.

Even Old Li’s eyes widened as he looked at the numbers on the screen. The numbers lit up one by one and stopped at 92.

“F*ck, he’s impressive. I remember that the strength of the lowest-leveled warrior’s is only 100 points.”

“Wang Meng is indeed fierce. It feels like he would be able to reach 100 if he used just a little more strength.”

“He’s amazing, amazing. We can’t compare to him.”

When the students in the class saw Wang Meng’s results, they were all extremely shocked. Disregarding everything else, just this strength alone proved that Wang Meng was indeed not far from becoming a martial artist.

“Very good, Wang Meng. Strength test results: excellent. Next, Liu Chuan.”

Old Li was very pleased. Wang Meng didn’t disappoint him. However, this Liu Chuan was a pity. Sigh.

On his way out, Wang Meng ran his fingers through his hair in a showy manner while putting on a lonely expression.

Liu Chuan pointed his middle finger at Wang Meng.

“Liu Chuan is really in a sorry state. He just happened to be taking the test after Wang Meng. This way, even his average results would seem very bad.”

“Indeed, Liu Chuan’s strength is only about the same as mine. He can only reach 60 at most.”

“Damn, don’t cause bad luck for yourself by acting too confidently about your abilities. I think Liu Chuan can get 70.”

Liu Chuan naturally didn’t care what his classmates were talking about. He was curious if the value shown on the device would be the same as the value shown on his system.

Unlike the others who had more or less learned martial arts, he could only stand there, clench his fists, and punch forward.

However, when Old Li and the entire class saw the numbers on the screen, they were all dumbfounded..
