Chapter 20: Get on the bus first and pay the ticket later·Part 1

Three months later, Rosak City.

Without the rogue bandits, the circus was able to run freely throughout the Rossak Province. They performed well in the southern towns that they had not been to for a long time.

Xia Zuo optimized the colorful fire-breathing performance in his free time and added Snake and others to the scene.

The fire-breather, who was once a solitary performer, can now perform on stage with everyone.

Snake beat the drums, and green snakes danced on the ground. Poppy, the strong man, threw the clown brother and sister over the flames, and Audrey caught them on the other side.

The weird purple flames passed under the clown sister, causing the audience to scream in surprise.

The clown brothers and sisters and the colorful flames became the focus of the audience, while Xia Zuo, the spitting person, became a supporting role.

But it doesn't matter, Xia Zuo doesn't mind.

He just hoped that he could leave something more for his friends before leaving.

Before evening every day, the test results of the day will be announced on the notice board at the entrance of the testing station.

The so-called acquired affinity is accumulated over the years. Without hard training, the ability to resist damage from certain elements will not be born.

[Fire Resistance] is the rarest resistance.

…You seem to be talking nonsense…

[Character name] Little Merben Riley

[Identity] The son of the blacksmith at Merburn Blacksmith Shop in Rosac City

【HP】???(health)

【Resistance】

Starry Night Academy Admission Testing Station.

Only boys and girls of Xia Zuo's age have a slight chance of developing an acquired affinity.

The inspection station distributes wood chips engraved with the entry time in order of age from youngest to oldest.

【Character Name】Kelly Mueller

Xia Zuo naturally held Audrey's hand, and the two maintained a close relationship like brother and sister.

[Forging Master·Fire Temperature] For a long time, he helped his father drive the blower and control the flame temperature in the furnace, giving little Merben Riley a high degree of control over the fire temperature.

Mars waited for Xia Zuo to enter and then gently closed the door.

"Xia Zuo...oh, I remember, you are the fire breather of Audrey Circus, right?"

"Little Merburn Riley, come with me. We are going to the next step of testing."

This place is much more spacious than when we first came here.

"Okay. Uncork the bottle and cover the mouth of the bottle with your palm."

The vast majority of people have at least two types of resistance, but there are only a few people like Xia Zuo and Xiao Moben who only have one type of resistance.

He is the only person so far who can stay at the testing station after being tested.

Xia Zuo will not have any regrets when he leaves.

【Spirit】1.5

From 1 to the current 1.5, he obtained it entirely through reading, and even one free attribute point is useless.

"I know, I know. Little Merben is the son of old Merben."

"Sister, is it my turn?"

Xia Zuo nodded to Mars and thanked him, noted down the other person's rare hair color, and planned to find out more after the test was completed.

They all developed slight elemental resistance after being exposed to certain things for many years.

Mars opened the door, made a quiet gesture to Xia Zuo, and whispered, "Come in quickly, it's already started."

"The Miller's Daughter."

Today is the third day of open testing for Acquired Affinity.

[Mill Master·Water Power] Long-term monitoring, maintenance, and improvement of water-powered mills will allow Corrie Muller to develop an understanding of the water element

Ever since the acquired affinity test started, the mornings in Rosak City have been particularly lively. Before it was fully light, there was a faint noise on the streets.

Xia Zuo raised his eyebrows and recognized that it was Thales Meso, the resident mage of Rosak City.

"It's almost your turn."

Her long flaxen hair hangs down to her back, and her wavy smooth hair is tied into a ponytail with a red hair rope, revealing her white neck and smooth pink shoulders.

Xia Zuo sat down on the wooden chair closest to the door and waited patiently for his number to be called.

After all, flame is a dangerous thing, and only a very few professions will come into regular contact with it.

The staff member hesitated for a few seconds, seeming to consider whether he should say anything.

"Xia Zuo, let's go."

Xia Zuo's mind moved and he cast a detecting spell on Xiao Moben who was about to enter the room.

There was a commotion in the team, and whispers could be heard.

"I'm sorry, Your Excellency. I can't stand it anymore."

Audrey also realized the difference between men and women and rarely held each other in her arms. Only occasionally she couldn't help but pinch each other's cheeks.

Xia Zuo looked at Keli's slender back and threw out the detection technique.

His spirit is much higher than mine. Xia Zuo looked at his.

Audrey took out a piece of wood from her leather pocket and compared the number on it with the notice board in front of the inspection station.

[[Water Resistance] 1%

[[Wind Resistance] 1%

【Strength】1

【Agility】1

【Endurance】2

【Vitality】1

【Perception】3

【Will】4

【Spirit】10

【Charm】5

[Character Specialties]

Most of the people who have acquired this resistance are the descendants of herb collectors.

In the center of this room is a square area surrounded by thick curtains, and the specific situation inside is unclear.

Audrey pulled Xia Zuo, who was scurrying forward, and together they left the hotel and headed for the most crowded area in the city.

"Kelly Mueller, come with me, let's do the next test."

[Mill Master·Wind Power] Long-term monitoring, maintenance, and improvement of wind mills will allow Keli Murray to develop an understanding of the wind element.

Xia Zuo glanced at his mouth and turned his head to listen.

Surrounded by a row of wooden chairs, the boys and girls waiting for the test sat in a circle along the wall.

The boy with a sniffling nose wiped the clear water in front of his nose with his sleeve, "He is the son of a blacksmith in the south of the city. He is a bit stupid. He only helps his father push and pull the blower all day long."

Another person was taken to the room after taking the test.

Audrey stuffed the pieces of wood into Xia Zuo's hands, pushed through the crowd, and pushed Xia Zuo through the door.

In the past two days, children with bigger farts have been tested here. As you can imagine, no one has acquired affinity.

Xia Zuo followed the other party's steps and asked in confusion, "Isn't acquired affinity enough?"

More than a year ago, Xia Zuo was only about 1.4 meters tall, which was much shorter than his peers in the city. Since joining the circus, he has been eating well and sleeping well all day long, and his height has quickly caught up.

Now, with a height of 1.7 meters and a strong physique, he looks like a capable young man. The high bridge of his nose and the ever-present optimistic smile at the corner of his mouth make his handsome face more approachable.

After the sniffling boy was eliminated, Xia Zuo calmly placed his hand on the completely transparent glass ball.

The boy with a sniffling nose raised his chin under the gaze of everyone, seeming to enjoy the feeling of being watched.

Originally a one-story, two-room space, it was expanded into a three-story stone building with interlaced corridors.

Generous copper coins, fame spread all over the world, and vivid memories, at least one of them must be owned by the members, so that the care given to him by the members will not be in vain.

A girl came out of the curtain with a lonely look, and a familiar voice came from behind, "No. 6, come in."

Could it be that her family spent a lot of money to collect many books and props for her that can improve her mental attributes?
