Shortly after Ye Mohan left, the secretary named "Xiao Wang" turned around and gave Su Li a big smile. She asked, "You two are students from Donghai University, right? I'm Director Ye's secretary, you can call me Secretary Wang!"
"Oh, are you two a couple? It's really enviable that you're becoming Superhumans together..."
Looking at the never-ending chatter of Secretary Wang, Su Li said speechlessly, "Secretary Wang, can we go register now?"
"Of course, follow me!"
Secretary Wang smiled and waved, leading the two towards the first floor.
A moment later, the three arrived at a place that looked like a training room.
"Before you register as Superhumans, you need to undergo some simple tests!" Secretary Wang pointed to a strength tester and said, "That's a specially made strength tester. Go up and test it!"
"Okay..."
Su Li nodded and stepped forward, throwing a "full power" punch.
1223kg!
Looking at the data he produced, Su Li breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that if he lost control for a moment, he would produce a terrifying number.
Although this number was still a bit high, it was still acceptable!
"Yo, your boyfriend has quite a bit of strength!" Secretary Wang said from a distance, looking surprised.
Based on past experience, it was quite good for newly registered Superhumans to have a strength of around 1000kg. Only a few exceptionally talented individuals could exceed this limit.
"Mm!"
Although she didn't know what Secretary Wang was specifically referring to, Xia Ke nodded seriously.
She was naturally happy when others praised her boyfriend!
"Don't feel any pressure, just hit it with all your might!" Su Li said to Xia Ke after he got down.
"Okay!"
Nodding, Xia Ke walked up.
Boom!
1334kg!
Su Li: "..."
Secretary Wang: "..."
Looking at the number on the strength tester, Secretary Wang turned around again and said, "Yo, your girlfriend has quite a bit of strength too!"
"This thing isn't broken, is it?"
Su Li felt a headache coming on. What was Xia Ke's situation? How could a normal Superhuman have such great strength at F-?
Could it be her talent bonus?
But wasn't her talent a charisma bonus?
"Impossible!" Secretary Wang said very confidently, and then continued, "Su Li? You're Su Li, right?"
"Su Li, you need to face reality. Your girlfriend is clearly stronger than you. You need to consider the consequences carefully when you do things in the future!"
Su Li: "..."
"Um, I didn't perform well just now. I'll do it again!" At this moment, Xia Ke, who was standing on the strength tester, said, and then punched the strength tester.
1123kg!
Looking at the new data, Xia Ke breathed a sigh of relief.
"This is actually my true level!" Xia Ke said as she walked down.
"You don't have to do this!"
Su Li felt like spitting blood. Was Xia Ke trying to comfort him in this way?
If he really got serious, he could smash this strength tester with one punch in minutes!
"Hehehe, you two are really interesting! Alright, the strength test is complete. Let's go test some other data!" Secretary Wang said, waving at the two!
The tests lasted for more than an hour, and most of the items were physical data, such as body strength, reaction speed, and movement speed.
At the end of the test, Secretary Wang said, "Alright, the last item is your talent test!"
"What is that?" Xia Ke thought for a moment and then asked, "Is it the speed at which we absorb energy when practicing the Breathing Technique?"
"Talent is actually the superpower you gain when you become a Superhuman. As for why it's called 'talent,' I don't know!" Secretary Wang explained.
"So it's a superpower!"
Su Li didn't speak. When he heard Secretary Wang say the word "talent," he thought of some other things.
Yes, it was the issue of the source of Superpower Technology.
If this thing was researched and developed by humans themselves, Su Li wouldn't not believe it. After all, Superhumans were real. What if someone got incredibly lucky and managed to stumble upon it?
However, at this moment, Su Li felt that this possibility was no longer high.
The reason was the naming convention. Superhumans gained special abilities, so why not call them something else?
Names like "superpowers" were much more descriptive than the strange word "talent." A normal person would understand what it meant just by hearing it.
But, they specifically used "talent" to name the special abilities of Superhumans!
What did this indicate? It indicated that the emergence of Superhumans on Earth was, in all likelihood, influenced by other factors!
[If there are other sources, what could they be? Aliens? Relics of ancient civilizations? Or perhaps...] Su Li's imagination ran wild for a moment, and at the same time, he felt that the real world had become much more complex.
While Su Li was lost in thought, Xia Ke patted his arm and said, "Su Li, Su Li, what are you thinking about? Secretary Wang is calling you!"
"Oh?" Su Li snapped back to attention and said, "Sorry, I zoned out for a bit!"
"It's alright, come on, show us the talent you acquired!" Secretary Wang said with a smile.
"En!"
Nodding, Su Li willed it, and immediately, three semi-transparent long swords appeared before him.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
The three long swords transformed into three streaks of white light, suddenly appearing at a distant target and piercing deeply into it.
"Unlimited Blade Works! That's what I named it."
Secretary Wang: "..."
After a moment of hesitation, Secretary Wang finally nodded.
This was a talent with considerable destructive power, but it was useless in scientific research!
Secretary Wang silently gave her evaluation.
Just then, Xia Ke looked at the long sword Su Li had just handed her and exclaimed, "It's so beautiful!"
"It's for you!"
Carbon Gold had advantages in this aspect; it looked like crystal and was very beautiful. It was a godsend for pleasing girls.
"En!"
Nodding, Xia Ke happily admired the shining long sword.
"Ahem, these controlled knives cannot be brought into public places!" Secretary Wang, sensing a bit of public display of affection, promptly reminded them.
"It's fine, I'm not taking it out!" Xia Ke said nonchalantly.
"...Then, what about your talent?" Secretary Wang asked, looking at Xia Ke.
"Actually, I'm not too sure either!" Xia Ke thought for a moment and then said.
"If I had to say a special ability, it might be my eyes? Before I became a Superhuman, I had severe congenital amblyopia, but now my vision has become very good!"
"How good?" Secretary Wang asked.
"Just slightly better than a normal person..."
Secretary Wang: "..."
"I'm talking about special abilities, not these trivial matters!" Secretary Wang said through gritted teeth.
"Oh!" Xia Ke nodded and continued.
"Then it must be my gaze? I always feel like my gaze has a special ability, but I haven't tested it, so I'm not too sure!"
"Gaze..."
Secretary Wang was a little speechless. Superhumans' perception of their own abilities was generally accurate. This meant that Xia Ke's gaze truly did have a special ability.
Perhaps she could kill people with her gaze!
Su Li, standing nearby, also nodded after hearing Xia Ke's words.
If anyone were to ask about Xia Ke's talent, her gaze was undoubtedly the most reliable. Because last night, he had also been captivated by Xia Ke's gaze.
This kind of talent that made girls look more beautiful was truly perfect for someone like him who appreciated good looks!
Just as Su Li was nodding to himself, the long-dormant blue screen suddenly appeared before him.
Looking at the information displayed on it, a look of realization appeared on Su Li's face.
