    Chapter 232

    Su Hao quietly infused a strand of Blood Qi into Chen Haiyun's small hand.

    The moment their hands touched...

    Her body information was successfully recorded inside the Marble Space.

    Satisfied, Su Hao gave her hand an enthusiastic shake, just like a proper handshake.

    Then he smiled brightly.

    "Congratulations."

    "See you again, little friend."

    With that, he turned around and disappeared into the crowd before anyone could react.


    ---

    The entire exchange lasted only a few seconds.

    Little Chen Haiyun simply stood there blankly, completely unable to understand what had just happened.

    Her father looked at his own hand in confusion.

    He couldn't figure out why that little boy had managed to push him aside so effortlessly.

    The nearby onlookers exchanged puzzled glances.

    "...What just happened?"

    After thinking for a moment...

    Everyone reached the same conclusion.

    That child must be a little strange.

    Children often did incomprehensible things.

    Thinking that way...

    They quickly forgave Su Hao's odd behavior and moved on.

    Everyone...

    Except Chen Haiyun.


    ---

    Her little hand...

    Had just been held by a boy.

    Remembering all the romantic television dramas she had watched...

    Her little face immediately turned pale.

    I'm finished...

    Did holding hands mean...

    Could I already be pregnant...?

    The overwhelming joy of awakening B-Rank Summoner Talent instantly disappeared.

    She suddenly felt like crying.


    ---

    At that moment, Sister Bai finally noticed Su Hao was missing.

    Alarmed, she looked around.

    "Where's Jingzhong?"

    A familiar voice immediately answered from behind her.

    "I'm here."

    She turned around.

    There stood Su Hao, smiling innocently as though nothing had happened.

    Only then did she finally relax.

    "There are too many people here."

    "You can't wander off by yourself."

    "Understand?"

    Su Hao obediently nodded.

    "I understand."


    ---

    Yashan quietly leaned closer.

    "Boss Jingzhong..."

    "Where did you just go?"

    Without even looking at him, Su Hao replied,

    "Jingyi."

    "Be quiet."

    "...Oh."

    Yashan immediately shut his mouth.


    ---

    The announcements continued echoing throughout the hall.

    Most children awakened talents below C-Rank.

    Although they still attracted envious looks...

    None caused much excitement.

    Clearly...

    B-Rank Talent was already considered exceptionally rare.

    The overwhelming majority of Summoners possessed talent below C-Rank.


    ---

    About half an hour later...

    It was finally Su Hao's turn.

    At Sister Bai's signal, he entered through a side entrance.

    Inside was a spacious testing room filled with various unfamiliar machines.

    Without saying much, one of the staff members guided him toward a chair.

    After he sat down...

    Several restraints secured him in place.

    A helmet-like device descended over his head.

    It resembled a VR headset.

    Immediately afterward...

    A beam of light appeared before his eyes.

    At first...

    Countless twisted threads of light slowly drifted through his vision.

    As time passed...

    The movement became faster and faster.

    Eventually...

    The tangled threads assembled into a complete structure.

    Su Hao frowned slightly.

    Interesting.


    ---

    A few moments later...

    The lights disappeared.

    The helmet was removed.

    The recorder beside him silently wrote something on his registration form before handing it to another staff member.

    Throughout the entire process...

    No one even looked at him.


    ---

    Soon...

    He was led into another room.

    Another helmet descended.

    This time...

    The scenery before his eyes changed completely.

    Instead of tangled threads...

    He saw countless orderly cubes.

    The cubes constantly shifted between two-dimensional and three-dimensional forms before rearranging into even more complicated geometric structures.

    After several minutes...

    The helmet was removed once more.

    The recorder silently picked up a large red stamp.

    Thunk.

    The stamp landed squarely on the Normal column of Su Hao's registration form.

    Without another word, the form was returned to him.

    The guide's polite smile had completely disappeared.

    He casually pointed toward another exit.

    "You may leave through there."

    People without Summoner Talent...

    Didn't qualify to leave through the main entrance.

    That entrance...

    Was reserved for those with a future.


    ---

    Su Hao lowered his head.

    On the registration form...

    A large red seal had been stamped beside the word—

    Normal.

    "...So I don't possess Summoner Talent."

    His expression gradually darkened.

    Silently...

    He followed the guide out through the side exit.


    ---

    Outside...

    Quite a few people had gathered.

    They weren't there to congratulate anyone.

    Instead...

    They were waiting to watch disappointed children emerge.

    One man laughed.

    "Look."

    "Another ordinary kid just like us."

    They had once suffered the same disappointment themselves.

    Unable to bear watching talented children proudly leave through the front entrance...

    They instead found comfort by watching others experience the same failure.


    ---

    Su Hao quickly spotted Sister Bai waiting nearby.

    He slowly walked over.

    The moment she saw him...

    She crouched down with a warm smile.

    "It's alright, Jingzhong."

    "You don't have to become a Summoner."

    "You're so smart."

    "No matter what you choose in the future..."

    "You'll definitely succeed."

    Su Hao smiled as well.

    "I know."

    "I'll succeed no matter what."

    "...But."

    "I still want to become a Summoner."

    For a moment...

    Sister Bai didn't know how to respond.

    Without Summoner Talent...

    There was simply no path forward.

    No amount of hard work could change that.

    The hardest thing for people...

    Was accepting reality.

    In Sister Bai's eyes...

    Su Hao had fallen into the trap of believing too strongly in himself.

    Ironically...

    The smarter someone was...

    The harder it became for them to escape that illusion.

    Rubbing her forehead, she sighed inwardly.

    Another troublesome child...

    Still...

    Who told me to become your Sister Bai?


    ---

    Soon afterward...

    Yashan and Bai Jingchun also emerged from the side exit.

    Just as expected...

    Both carried the same result.

    Normal.

    Yashan didn't care in the slightest.

    Whether he became a Summoner or not...

    As long as he could continue following Boss Wei...

    Nothing else mattered.

    As for Bai Jingchun...

    He still looked as absent-minded as ever.

    He didn't seem particularly concerned either.

    Sister Bai wasn't surprised.

    A one-percent success rate...

    Had always been too low.

    She had never truly expected any of the three children to awaken Summoner Talent.

    As long as they could all grow up safely...

    That was enough.


    ---

    Suddenly, Su Hao asked,

    "Sister Bai."

    "What exactly determines whether someone has Summoner Talent?"

    She paused briefly before answering honestly.

    "People who can perceive the Spatial Meridians possess Summoner Talent."

    Su Hao repeated thoughtfully,

    "...Spatial Meridians?"

    Sister Bai nodded.

    "The space around us isn't actually still."

    "It constantly fluctuates according to a unique rhythm."

    "Only an extremely small number of people are naturally capable of sensing those fluctuations."

    "Those people are called Summoners."

    Afraid the explanation might sound too abstract, she continued,

    "Think about it."

    "Our Summoned Beasts come from the Secondary Star."

    "No one even knows how far away it is."

    "To summon something across such an enormous distance, you first have to break through the barrier separating two spaces."

    "And to do that..."

    "You must first perceive the rhythm of space itself."

    She concluded simply,

    "So..."

    "The ability to sense spatial fluctuations is the prerequisite for becoming a Summoner."


    ---

    Su Hao frowned.

    "Does it absolutely have to be done by humans?"

    "Couldn't machines perceive those spatial fluctuations and perform the summoning instead?"

    Sister Bai looked genuinely surprised.

    She hadn't expected a six-year-old to ask such a question.

    After thinking briefly, she shook her head.

    "In theory..."

    "Machine Summoning is possible."

    "But spatial fluctuations are constantly changing."

    "By the time even the most advanced machine finishes calculating one rhythm..."

    "Space has already shifted into another."

    "Machines simply can't adapt quickly enough."

    "Humans can instinctively follow those constantly changing rhythms."

    "Machines can't."

    After a pause, she smiled.

    "Many years ago, people proposed something called Intelligent Summoning."

    "But most Summoners opposed the idea."

    "To this day..."

    "No one has successfully achieved it."

    "Besides..."

    "Only Summoners are qualified to research spatial science."

    "If Summoners themselves aren't interested..."

    "Then Intelligent Summoning will never become reality."


    ---

    Su Hao quietly nodded.

    "I understand."

    Outwardly...

    He accepted her explanation.

    Internally...

    His thoughts were racing.

    If Summoners can naturally perceive spatial fluctuations...

    Then they must possess some specialized sensory organ.

    Something similar to the way my Perception Rune functions.

    If I can identify that organ...

    Then perhaps...

    I can create one for myself.

    Once he could perceive spatial rhythms...

    Learning the principles behind Summoning would simply become a matter of time.

    And once he understood Summoning...

    The mysteries of space itself would finally begin opening before him.


    ---

    Sister Bai clapped her hands.

    "Enough thinking."

    "Come on."

    "Big Sister Bai is treating everyone to ice cream today."

    "You've probably never eaten any before."

    "So treasure this opportunity."

    The three children quietly followed behind her as they left the Talent Assessment Center.

    The entire journey...

    Su Hao remained unusually silent.

    Sister Bai assumed he was still saddened by the test results.

    In reality...

    He wasn't disappointed at all.

    Instead...

    He was thinking about something else entirely.

    Where do Summoners usually gather?

    Tonight...

    I'll collect body data from as many of them as possible.

    Then I'll compare everything inside the Marble Space.
