A rare light rain turned the hot morning in the city into a noisy one.

People rushed outside excitedly and enthusiastically, bathing their whole bodies in the pouring rain, with smiles on their faces like blooming flowers.

It seemed like I had encountered the happiest thing in the world.

Unfortunately, when a melodious bell suddenly sounded from the direction of the cathedral in the center of the city, the gorgeous flowers that had only been blooming for a short time withered sadly.

The sound of the bells is clear, one after another, constantly urging the residents of this city.

Tell them very regularly - it's time to go to work.

The sound of car horns and passers-by shouting curses later became the dominant tune in the city.

However, not everyone needs to work for survival.

At the same moment as the bell rang, people in white robes gradually appeared around the cathedral.

It was sparse at first, but soon became dense.

They stood in groups in the large square in front of the church, and there was a constant buzz of discussion.

The loud noise made Sister Lily feel like she was in a vegetable market.

"It's really strange. Why are so many people watching this assessment?"

A companion next to him whispered, "Isn't it true that most of the extraordinary people in the country have come to join in the fun?"

"They all came to see the genius Father Matthew brought back."

Lily said so.

All you need to do is listen carefully to the discussions around you to understand this matter——

Everything related to the air crash is still under "investigation".

But the specific truth is basically no longer a secret because the priest submitted the case report.

Everyone is obviously very curious about the legendary super genius, so in the past few days, people from other cities in China have been arriving one after another.

This not only made people sigh, but also came to take the assessment. The foreigner who had just arrived seemed to be a big star, and everyone around him couldn't wait to see him.

But local people like them are like some minions, hiding in the corner and no one cares about them.

"Don't worry and prepare. It won't be long before the assessment begins."

When her companions expressed curiosity about the legendary Andy, Sister Lily said calmly: "What other people are like has nothing to do with us."

"But do you think he can really drive away evil spirits with makeshift graffiti?"

The companion obviously didn't listen to Lily's words, "If this is really the case, then his talent will be too terrifying, right?"

"Pope Galde III has done more amazing things than him, but at that time His Majesty the Pope was already an experienced old man, and he still used oil paintings."

"Oil painting, you know, it takes a lot of time to complete a painting..."

"Father Matthew never lies."

Faced with the doubts of her companions, Lily replied, "If he said yes, it must be yes. Otherwise, do you think these people would come all the way to join in the fun after only hearing a few rumors?"

"But I still don't believe that a few random drawings can drive away evil spirits. This is not scientific at all - uh, do you understand what I mean?"

Of course Lily understood, but she didn't think it was necessary to talk to her companions about this matter.

So while her companion was chattering, she gathered up the hem of her black nun's robe, bent down and sat on the marble steps in front of the cathedral, and lowered her head to open a book.

They are nuns from a certain nunnery in this city. After this assessment, the extraordinary profession they will take up is also "nuns".

This profession can be regarded as independent of the world.

But when the news about Andy was heard, there was still a stir in the convent.

Lily knew clearly that her companion's current nagging was actually not disbelief, but resentment.

Because I’m not angry, I’m always looking for unreasonable things to question.

This mentality is normal.

After all, locals like them were born into the extraordinary class. If they wanted to become extraordinary, they would need more than ten years of hard training.

A foreign kid, from an ordinary family, without doing anything, can come and jump in line without any courtesy...

Why?

Who wouldn't be angry after hearing this?

It's still good to be like them.

Lily knew that the reservists like them in the Knights Court and the Inquisition Bureau immediately started to curse when they found out about this.

He also threatened that when the assessment begins, he will definitely give the so-called genius a slap in the face.

Lily didn't think much of them.

Extraordinaries are in the same class, but there are still classes within the extraordinary class.

When Father Matthew values ​​a person, even if that person is a pig-brained person, he must not be someone ordinary people can mess with.

Not to mention a genius.

However, if the momentum is too strong, it may not be a good thing...

Paying attention to the huge momentum in the square from the corner of her eye, Lily couldn't help but think deeply.

So she whispered to her companion: "When that Andy appears later, don't get close to him."

"Get closer to him?"

The girl companion wearing a black and white nun's robe was surprised when she heard this, "Who would be interested in a little boy?"

"I'm talking about business."

Lily frowned when she heard this, "Although——"

"Look, it's Anthony!"

The companion suddenly interrupted Lily, grabbed her arm, and shook her head excitedly.

"He, he actually came to our place to take the assessment! God, this is really rare!"

Anthony?

Lily's expression was startled.

This name represents the country's most famous genius in recent years, and the most dazzling rising star of their generation.

With a humble personality and good upbringing, he is very popular with the younger generation, especially girls.

Before Andy showed up, Anthony was the most talked about.

And now, he is here too?

Lily felt a little strange about this. She followed the guidance of her companion and saw a handsome young man with blond hair, blue eyes and a tall and tall figure.

Like her, the boy also had companions, not just one, but a group.

And that group of people...

After a little differentiation, she couldn't help but be even more surprised.

Because not only that new star, but also many famous and outstanding figures from the younger generation from all over the country came here this time!

"They must not be able to get used to the arrogance of the foreign kid, so they came to us specially to take the assessment."

The companions were gloating on the sidelines.

Lily was speechless.

Could the so-called new stars be a group of simple-minded young people who love to show off?

After today's final assessment, the students have graduated and entered the society. Although their future is bright, they will no longer be cared for in the past.

So this assessment is actually quite important to them.

Whether you can be valued and cultivated by big shots and whether you can stand out from mediocrity depends on your subsequent performance.

According to Lily's understanding, the talented Anthony had delayed his "graduation" several times because of this.

The purpose is to accumulate strength, wait for the opportunity, and put on a solo show that can make him a national sensation.

But now that he is able to come, there must be other factors, involving a greater future, that make him no longer intend to hold back.

What is the reason?

Lily was a little curious about this.

But the area around the square was crowded and chaotic, and there was nothing special about it.

So she had no choice but to converge her eyes, lower her head and continue reading her book.

No matter what the reason is, the arrival of Anthony and others cannot be for a little outsider.

Among the reserve youths who came from outside to participate in the assessment, Anthony was the most famous and the most beautiful, but he was a very low-key person.

When he arrived in the square in front of the church and mingled with a group of his peers, he basically didn't speak much.

Just keep smiling and listen to what others are saying.

"If the genius that the chief exorcist values ​​is suppressed by others, it naturally means that this person is a greater genius."

No one has a good attitude towards people who jump in line, and one of the brown-haired boys was making comments about this.

"I don't think the priest would lie, so I don't think any of us can match that guy in terms of talent."

"But the assessment is not just about talent."

"And even if it's talent, it's both literary and martial."

"Do you understand what I mean?"

"You mean, a group of people versus one?"

Some people expressed different opinions, "Even if we win, it won't be a glorious thing, right?"

"Not glorious, but useful."

The brown-haired boy said: "And my idea is just to hope that everyone can compete with each other in what they are best at.

"With that foreigner as our comparison target, it doesn't matter if we lose, but winning will make us even better."

"After all, we are nothing, and he is a super genius."

This self-deprecating and self-deprecating statement made the young people around him frown in unison.

They all believe that they are not brainless idiots, and they all agree that the legendary super genius must be very powerful.

But I have never seen it with my own eyes.

When they feel the other party's "privilege", when the limelight in the past is suddenly crushed by a foreigner, they are ultimately dissatisfied.

Anthony, who remained silent, had different ideas about this.

When he left the group of young people and was alone with his close friends, he whispered: "The old gentleman must have been here."

"He's probably here for Andy."

"so what."

The friend frowned when he heard this: "Are you also going to use your best skills to win the attention of that old gentleman?"

"Of course, this opportunity is so rare, I must seize it!"

"But it's not necessary."

The friend said unceremoniously, "I think the guy's idea just now is idiotic. Only a fool would listen to his opinion."

"They are indeed idiots. Their judgment has been affected by their emotions."

Anthony nodded in agreement, "But what we have to do is get close to and assist Andy and strive to become his comrade-in-arms."

"Instead of fighting him."
