《Becoming God of a Dystopian World 》Chapter 121: '/|||' Mark
Advertisement
Zhao Luo's score was indeed a shocking matter for Senior Cutie but his charming laugh had melted away the heart of this shocked baldy.
'How lovely.'
Senior Cutie thought as the melodious laugh entered his ears.
"Not only are you strong...but."
'Well built too. Mhmm.'
Senior Cutie couldn't help himself as he praised Zhao Luo while filtering the creepy words out of his comment.
"Hah."
Zhao Luo stopped laughing and looked at the baldy who was praising him.
"So did I pass?"
Zhao Luo asked Senior Cutie with a taunting smile.
"Yes."
"You passed the strength test but not only that."
Senior Cutie told Zhao Luo as he walked towards him.
"The score '1000' shows that a disciple has the strength of a second '||' level, outer disciple."
Senior Cutie told Zhao Luo while taking glances at his superb score, which was superb in more than one way.
'9069.'
Zhao Luo nodded as he listened to the baldy trying to explain things to him.
"Every increase of 1000 score shows that the strength of a person has increased by a ton. With your score being more than 9000 you have already surpassed a second '||' level disciple in terms of strength by 8 tons."
Senior Cutie continued but this time he was touching his fingers like he was using them to count something.
Zhao Luo who was confused for a second looked at the bald senior in front of him and saw a palm raised, right in front of him.
Senior Cutie brought down his palm and showed his five fingers.
"In terms of strength, you are already close to the top five disciples in our trainee hall."
"While all of them are way above you in their status as all five of them are ninth '∆' level, outer disciples, while you are just a tr...."
Senior Cutie stopped talking as his mouth was opened in shock.
'Did he just realize everything?'
Zhao Luo wondered as he looked at senior cutie whose face was a perfect match of someone opening an egg from the middle.
"You...did the outer disciple ruling over the trainee hall give you something?"
Senior Cutie questioned Zhao Luo with sharpness in his eyes.
'I should have just brought him to the senior first.'

While shaking his head, senior cutie thought that bringing Zhao Luo here for his test was a mistake.
For him, Zhao Luo was just some handsome trainee aiming to advance to an outer disciple but who knew that he would turn out to be a monster.
'This bald egg...'
While listening to senior cutie, Zhao Luo had already made up some new nicknames for him.
"What taking over? Senior Mite isn't like that anymore."
Zhao Luo told senior cutie in a loud voice like he was reprimanding him.
"Ah, so Mite was the one handling the job."
Senior cutie nodded while remembering Mite's thick and sturdy body as his mouth looked filled for some reason.
"So did he give you something or not?"
Shaking his head to throw away the malicious thoughts rising in his head, he asked Zhao Luo again.
'Hmmm.'
"Ah, yes. This."
Zhao Luo brought out a white badge from his robe and passed it to the baldy.
'Grab'
"This...He gave you the white badge.", Senior Cutie stuttered as another shocking thing was happening.
'It's a shocking day.'
He thought while looking at the white badge in his hand.
"Well yeah, he did. That is why I passed it to you."
Zhao Luo raised his shoulder for an instant.
'Why would I lie?'
Zhao Luo didn't even know the value white badge except that it was a token of approval from Mite.
"This badge means, he has already lost to you."
Senior Cutie looked at Zhao Luo with suspicion filling his eyes.
Zhao Luo had nothing else to say as he gave a short nod.
"So he lost to you. A level seven '/||' disciple losing to a trainee. But I guess you are quite capable."
Senior Cutie had already seen Zhao Luo's strength so he could understand the reason why Mite gave Zhao Luo a white badge.
White Badge: When a hall overseer loses to a lower level disciple, then this white badge is given to the disciple when he leaves that particular hall.
"So what will happen to me? Will I be advancing to an outer disciple or not?"
Zhao Luo just wanted to know a simple question asked the baldy who was acting like Wedlock Homes, that is, as a detective.
"Ah yes. You will be promoted to an outer disciple but not only that, I will give you five marks."

Senior Cutie told Zhao Luo as he started walking deeper into the hall.
"Come."
Senior Cutie waved at Zhao Luo and gestures at him, to follow him.
"Okay."
Zhao Luo replied as he followed behind the shining head.
'I will be an outer disciple now.'
Zhao Luo confirmed the reality in his mind as he looked around.
There was no one in the big hall.
This hall was big enough to contend the training area of the trainee hall.
'But no one's here.'
Zhao Luo looked around more but couldn't find anyone in such a big hall.
"What are those doors for?"
Zhao Luo asked the senior as he could see two doors in the hall.
But both of them were closed so it was quite a surprise that the hall was so big and had two big doors yet no one was there or in the hall.
"One is for the ranking tests, that will start next week."
Senior Cutie answered Zhao Luo but stopped there.
"We are here. Give me your badge."
Senior Cutie told Zhao Luo as they stopped outside another closed door.
'Bang!'
'Bang!'
While Zhao Luo was removing his black badge, the baldy smacked the door twice.
Stunned by the sudden smacking Zhao Luo ripped the badge away from his chest side of the robe, slightly ruining his robe.
'Are you okay?'
Zhao Luo wondered while looking at baldy.
He didn't dare to ask this question out loud fearing the consequences of this weirdo jumping over him.
'Creak~'
The door slowly opened and Senior Cutie entered the room while Zhao Luo entered the room two steps after the senior.
"Badge."
Baldy said to Zhao Luo while leaving his hand in front of Zhao Luo.
'Tap.'
Zhao Luo placed his black badge on Senior Cutie's hand.
'Tap, Tap.'
The baldy moved ahead.
Zhao Luo looked inside the room and found nine different holes in the front wall.
Each hole had a different type of mark above it showing a level.
From Left to Right, Zhao Luo's gaze lingered on every one of the marks.
The first one the left one was.
'|'
Then the others kept on coming in his sight as he moved his eyes towards the right.
||, |||, |/, /, /|, /||, /|||, ∆
Zhao Luo could see his senior, an outer disciple, senior cutie, standing there in front of the wall, staring in the halls.
He had Zhao Luo's badge in his right hand.
Zhao Luo could see baldy's right hand going towards '/' hole, that is the fifth level.
But then the baldy moved it to the right.
"/||"
Zhao Luo mumbled but before he could have finished saying what he was seeing the senior cutie already had his arm in front of /||| mark.
"What are you..."
"Shhh."
Zhao Luo tried to question the dumb actions of senior cutie but before he could complete his dialogue, senior cutie interrupted him with his 'Shh~' sound.
Zhao Luo raised his brows as he felt annoyed but still he tried his best to stay calm.
The baldy kept on moving his hand between the marks '/' fifth level and '∆' ninth level.
He did that the second time and Zhao Luo kept quiet.
The third time, Zhao Luo didn't say anything.
The fourth time, Zhao Luo didn't say anything and just watched his senior.
The fifth time... The sixth time... The seventh time, this same action was repeated by the senior many times till Zhao Luo already had his fists tightened and his teeth clenched.
"Can you stop already? Are you trying to perform 'Monk doing a Shit Robotic Dance'? Huh?"
Zhao Luo broke down and suddenly shouted at the senior cutie.
That is what Zhao Luo was looking at.
A room where he was the only member of the audience and the senior cutie was the performer.
He was handling such insane torture.
'I want to wash my eyes after this, Sigh.'
Zhao Luo couldn't control his anger anymore but he stopped shouting as he realized that the senior was putting his hand in one of the halls.
"/|||"
Zhao Luo saw Senior Cutie's hand going in the eighth-level hole.
Senior Cutie took his hand out but it was empty. Zhao Luo's badge was still in the hole.
After a moment, the badge was thrown out of the hole and it went straight towards Zhao Luo.
Grab!
'Tap.'
Zhao Luo caught his badge which lied upside-down on his hand.
Zhao Luo switched its side and saw that his badge had marks now.
"It's.."
Zhao Luo could see five marks on his badge.
"I am a level eight outer disciple?"
Zhao Luo asked with a shaking tone while his eyes were fixed on his badge which had '/|||' glowing on it.

Unwitting Champion
"In stories this is always easy. There's magic and powers, and quick steps to claiming that power for one's self. This doesn't feel true for me. I'm supposed to be a Champion, whatever that means, and yet I don't feel important. I don't have all the bells and whistles, which honestly feels familiar even in a new world. But what was I expecting? I haven't had the worst life - there are people with worse problems than mine - I've known what it is to struggle, to be pulled down instead of being helped up.This is nothing new."When in great peril, the Kingdom of Althor has no choice but to send a call into the void, beseeching the Fates to bring them a man who would save them from the coming darkness. Unfortunately the path the Fates chart is often unknowable to men and the Champion who appears is not what the kingdom expected.Unwitting Champion is a story of a guy displaced, dealing first and foremost with trying to survive in a world where he is no longer a person but a tool, and - at least from the reaction of those around him - a shoddy one at that. His major goal is to survive long enough that either he can run or find a way home, because as exciting as the possibility of learning magic might be, he would rather have a boring life than a short life.
