The God Virus

Listening to the whispers among the gathering crowd of disciples for a moment, Virus realized that they had mostly gathered because they wanted to see who would pass the second evaluation and become an official disciple of the sect while also making some fortune through gambling.

Then, no longer paying any attention to them, he continued to wait for the elder to arrive.

But then, some of the disciples who had witnessed the madman at the library by their own eyes instantly recognized him after spotting him in a corner, so they began to whisper among each other.

One of them said, "Look, see that person?... he's that madman!"

"That poor bastard."

As they were conversing between themselves, suddenly one of them said, "But did you know? One of the volunteers in the first evaluation was my cousin... he told me that this madman has achieved the white color in the first evaluation... ." Another stated filled with doubt.

"..."

"Hahaha..." Listening to his words, everyone around him began to laugh like they had just heard the funniest joke ever.

"Nice one... hahaha" They continued laughing.

"But I'm serious here." He said filled with frustration.

"That's impossible." Finally, one of the laughing disciples stated while patting his shoulder.

"Is that so? But my cousin never lies..." He replied with clear doubt showing in his eyes.

"I heard the same thing... and to make sure, I questioned some of the failed volunteers... and I realized... it's really true." A certain skinny disciple calmly voiced.

Listening to the skinny disciple's words, everyone was shocked, because they knew this skinny disciple was not a person to blabber gibberish without being confident in his own words first.

"Well, then that orb must've been broken or he has cheated, it can be only one of these... so don't mind it... well... even if he has truly made the orb turn into white, it doesn't matter, does it? Because he's just a madman." The Previous disciple replied.

Everyone unconsciously nodded their head and heaved sighs of relief hearing that disciple's words.

Wanting to see the madman by their own eyes, the disciples all took a peek for a moment before retracting their gazes almost immediately. While looking at him, a few were feeling sympathy for him, but most were feeling contempt and disdain.

Alice too, who by now had nothing else to do was looking at Virus as she thought, 'I will definitely take the number one position this time and show everyone that I'm the true genius here, not you!... Though I don't think there will be any challenges at all this time around...'

It was at this moment, when suddenly, a particular King-level beauty entered through the entrance of the library, making every single eye in the library locked at her as they silently gazed at her in stupefaction.

Most of the disciples recognized her at first sight because she was very famous in the sect and even her portraits were secretly being circulated among the disciples who secretly admired her.

Soon, one of the disciples who were here since the past few years uttered with a voice everyone could hear clearly, "Oh my heavens! That's Senior sister Astes!"

Listening to this, those few disciples who didn't recognize her were dumbfounded as they gasped, but soon, their eyes began to shine in deep admiration, because even they had heard of this rising legendary figure in the sect.

"How can such a beautiful person exist in the world..."

"She's my Goddess!"

"She's everyone's Goddess, but don't you dare to try to have any thoughts about her... because first of all it's impossible for senior sister to be interested in you...and second... you would probably be murdered by her other strong pursuers... some of her pursuers are even the strongest disciples in the whole sect..."

"Oh myyy Gaaawddess is hereee"

"So... so beautiful."

Virus too took a glance at the King-level beauty after hearing that disciple yell her name and truly seeing her, he couldn't help but think, 'She is beautiful...'

Then he continued his line of thought, 'these people in the Cultivation Multiverse are truly fortunate people when it comes to physical traits and features... because the existence of a dense qi and cultivators have made the offsprings mostly superior in looks, physical strength, etc. Since birth, especially if their parents are strong cultivators. And their beauty's continue to increase as they cultivate. This is an advantage this Earth has over the technology Earth and that's the main reason why more high-quality beauties exist here...'

As these kinds of thoughts were passing through his head, finally, someone entered the library and strolled beside the door to the second floor before announcing, "The two days countdown is done. Now... we will start the second evaluation... volunteers... come forth!"

Listening to the words of the elder who had appeared beside the door, most of the inferior disciples were confused because they didn't recognize him at all.

So they began to whisper among themselves once again, "Who's that elder? Do you know him?"

"No... I don't know... maybe he's a new elder?"

"Hmm... that might be the case."

Some of the disciples' eyes though began to shine after seeing him as they glanced at Astes once more, but they didn't open their mouth at all trying to announce who the elder was as they were uncertain if their words might make the elder feel offended, because if that happened, they might be doomed.

Though they decided to notify the others about the identity of that elder which almost never appeared in this section of the sect, thus being less known among the inferior disciples.

Virus, Alice, and the other three disciples with the bloodshot eyes promptly walked toward the elder as they stopped in front of him.

"Okay... I hope you juniors have studied well these past two days. Now... who wants to take the examination first?" The elder questioned looking at the five volunteers.

"I will enter first." One of the male disciples with bloodshot eyes raised his hand and volunteered.

'Hmm, I should enter as the last volunteer because my result will be too shocking... and I need to wait until all of the other four are done anyway ... so that's the best choice.' Virus decided inside his mind instantly.

Looking at Virus who didn't seem to want to volunteer just yet, Alice thought, 'I should go after or before this Vee person... like that, the elder would immediately realize I'm the true genius!'

"Okay, enter at once then." Agreeing, the elder allowed him to go inside.

Afterward, when he entered and closed the door behind himself, the elder promptly took out a big orb and send his qi inside as he also touched the door at the same time, then he uttered, "Like this, we would be able to witness the live result of his examination."

Listening to his words, everyone looked at the huge orb as they all could see a bar indicating between zero and a hundred.

At the same time, a picture of a book appeared above the bar.

Everyone was now staring at the orb when the zero at the beginning of the bar changed into one-hundredth of a percent and it slowly began to increase.

At the same time above the book, a number appeared indicating that currently one-tenth of the knowledge of the whole book was inputted and mastered by that volunteer.

As time passed, the numbers increased until the bar was at five-hundredth of a percent and the book was indicating that half the knowledge of the book was mastered when the book disappeared and was replaced by another book.

This process continued like this until, in the third book, the bar stopped at the seventeen-hundredth of a percent.

Soon that volunteer exited the door with a very sad and pale face because he had... failed.
