Progenitor Vampire: I Have Many Skills!

The people around looked at the scene in shock, and the curious, but good observers could notice that every movement of the man between that couple he made with extreme care towards that woman.

'She must be too important to him... And they are stronger than we thought...' thought several of them.

Even Alice was surprised by Matt's movement.

Matt's unconscious movement to protect and pull her towards him was a clear defensive move, but even he didn't notice it.

After thinking about that, Alice smiled a little at this. 'Hehe...' She smiled internally, revealing a beautiful, smitten smile on her face, though Matt didn't notice it.

It was then that the manager looked at what was going on.

"What's going on over there? What are doing fighting?" he asked, causing the rest of the students to clear a path for him.

He was in shock after seeing Mason Webb lying on the floor, bleeding. 'What happened here?' He thought in shock and looked at Matt and Alice as well.

'Did that half-elf couple beat him up?' He thought, but after seeing how overprotective Matt was of the girl, he understood what was happening.

At that moment, Thomas, who was in shock, stepped forward to speak.

"Mr. Richard, the situation is like this. I was talking to Young Zen to tell him a bit about the tests and so on, as he seemed interested, but suddenly, this guy came to cause trouble and tried to grab Miss. I think everyone here can tell." He spoke.

Richard, the manager, didn't need those words to understand, but he was grateful that someone had said it.

"Young Mason, I told you not to cause trouble. The Spirit Academy is no place for you to think you're arrogant," he scolded, causing Mason to let out a snort through his mouth and stand up.

"Hmph, that won't stand." He threatened as he glared at Matt.

Richard spoke once more after giving a snort through his mouth. "Yeah, yeah, whatever you say. Get on stage; it's your turn." He spoke.

Mason gave another angry snort with his mouth and took his people, who hadn't dared to perform because they feared offending the Academy. Still, they all looked angry.

Richard sighed a little and looked once more at Matt and Alice. 'These guys have terrifying power to be able to take Mason down like that with a single blow... They could be the hidden dragons of this batch of students.' He thought though he returned to his spot.

Soon, the pillar glowed green, proving that Mason had passed the test. He gave them a look of pride and mockery towards Matt and the rest, pretending they couldn't pass.

Still, he was ignored by them.

The five of them talked some more after that until the three siblings were called out.

Two of them failed this test, getting orange. The strongest woman got green, so she passed the test and looked radiant.

Richard nodded. 'Not bad; these three siblings, although weak, have potential. The ones that failed now, I'm sure, will pass in the next test, and the one that made it through is better than Mason Webb.' He thought.

After that, the turn of many people ended. No one else had made it through.

With the last one failing, Richard sighed and called back the next ones.

Then Richard called out once more.

"Zen Varrmar and Aelia Varrmar."

Being called, Matt and Alice walked by together.

Richard nodded to them. "Good luck. If you make it through, I'm sure you can become even more powerful than you already are."

Matt nodded and decided to go first.

The item he was wearing today was on his chest, under his clothes, so no one would see it. But it was already working when he put his hand on the pillar.

Then, he moved the mana from the item to the pillar in an unusual way.

Only Richard noticed that it was a bit unusual. 'Oh? What is this?' he thought doubtfully. The mana soon entered the pillar, and the white aura from the pillar enveloped Matt, but it was a little more concentrated on his chest.

But it didn't light up quickly like the previous times.

"Did something happen? It doesn't light up..." Said one of those watching, but then a shout came from the side.

"He failed!" he said.

The pillar had lit up red, showing that he had failed.

"Oh, so that was it..." Said some of those watching from the side.

But suddenly, something unusual happened.

The red color turned into an orange color, leaving the people watching everything from the side silent.

And that orange color soon turned into a green color.

"What the hell?"

"Why is the pillar changing color every now and then? No one else has touched it, right?"

"And it's green? Does that mean it passed the test?"

Still, the pillar's show was not over, and soon, the green color turned into a glowing blue color.

"Blue!?" Various shouts came out of the mouths of the spectators.

But once again, the color went back down to green, then orange, then red, but subsequently changed color again, all the way back to blue.

After that, it stopped.

Even Richard was in shock, but a hunch came to him.

'It could be...' He thought and looked at Matt steadily.

He walked quickly over to him and inspected him up and down.

"Zen Student, could it be that you are using a Magic Artifact for the test?" Richard asked doubtfully.

'Tsk, he finally figured it out.' He thought and sighed internally but nodded externally.

"That's right, Professor Richard. I honestly feel that I can be a better spirit summoner if I use a Magical Artifact, as I'm very compatible with it. The same goes for Aelia." Matt answered truthfully.

He hoped his answer would not give him trouble.

Richard's eyes then sparkled. 'An Artifact controller, able to have a blue compatibility with the summoning!' He thought and nodded to him several times.

"Fine, fine. If you feel that way is better and you have such a good compatibility, then that's good enough." He said and looked at Alice.

"Miss Aelia, you too, right? Try it at once, even though you both passed the test since you are talented Artifact controllers, but I would like to see how compatible you are." He spoke.

Matt and Alice were surprised, but she did.

She put her hand on the pillar and injected mana.

Soon, the color blue was seen at first. Then it changed to green but did not continue downward. Instead, the pillar lit up blue again.

That shocked Richard.

'Totally compatible! He's even better than Young Zen!' He thought and felt his heart thrill. Few people could be like this interesting and amazing duo. Even among more than 10 thousand people who were testing today, there might be less than 10 who would get the blue color and much less among those who used Artifacts.

He smiled at both of them and nodded willingly.

"Hahaha, well, well, what a good duo. You both are so compatible; I'm amazed. Please wait a few minutes, and someone will come get you. You are both approved," Richard replied.
