Currently, a colorless gas was roaming inside the orb like a steam of mirage which people usually saw in a very hot desert while looking at the far distance.

This colorlessness was completely different from the normal crystal orb which you could easily see through when no one was touching it. No, this colorlessness was like there was a roaming gas stuck inside the orb with extreme pressure, unable to be released to the outside world!

Seeing this, the horrified shock on everyone's face promptly turned into blankness followed by confusion and bewilderment.

They were sure they had just seen the orb turn completely white and then begin turning paler and paler until it was extremely pale, this was a terrifying concept to them because they were sure they had heard from the elder that the pale white color was the absolute best and peak possible.

And now, someone had achieved exactly that in front of their faces!

Which made them experience lots of things in a short period of time. They even began doubting if they were seeing things or if they had gone entirely mad.

They had suspicions regarding the colorless gas inside the orb because it was not inside the short introduction of the colors ranking the elder had explained earlier, but that didn't matter to the most of them as they didn't understand it.

What mattered to them was that he had achieved the white! And an extremely pale one, probably the palest, and just this notion alone sent s.h.i.+vers of bewilderment down to their spine.

After a while of pondering about this odd occurrence, they began feeling what was probably beyond jealousy, as the eyes of some of them even turned bloodshot because of extreme jealousy.

The elder who was just beside the orb though, was more shocked and dumbfounded than any of the other volunteers around the stage at the moment because only he truly understood what kind of terrifying of a notion it was to achieve the white!

He had read in the history books that no one had ever achieved the white color, so to their knowledge, even the ancestors of the sect had never seen or heard anyone achieve this.

This color had already stupefied him to no ends when he witnessed the white turn into colorless!

This was something he had never heard of, as it was something that wasn't supposed to exist in the first place within the ranking of the colors which confused and bewildered him very much.

But after deliberating over this matter for a short while, he could only reach at one conclusion, and it was that the colorless probably was what existed beyond the white rank. However, he couldn't understand what that meant, though that was the only possibility that he could arrive at.

He reached this conclusion because, firstly, the colors changed in chronological order and the further it changed the better the body was, and next, the paler the color got, the better it was supposed to be. As a result, the colorless was something entirely pale without any color at all and it came after white, which could only mean it was at least better than white.

But still, overall, it didn't make much sense to him to achieve a colorless color, so he began doubting his own hypothesis and reached another conclusion that maybe the orb was broken because of too much change in color.

After some more contemplation, he finally mumbled, "What is this? What's going on?"

Just as he uttered that, one of the volunteers in the crowd, who was a young boy which had already pa.s.sed the first evaluation, sneered and stated with a voice filled with disdain along with clear envy showing in his eyes, "Hmph, he must have cheated or the orb is broken! That colorlessness at the end proves that!"

Listening to his words, the other volunteers also began coming out of their shocked states of minds and agreed one after another.

"Yes, that must be it, he must've somehow cheated, otherwise how is it even possible to achieve colorless which doesn't even exist in the ranking!"

"How does he dare cheat in the sect's evaluation, this is a clear insult to the sect! Elder, please punish and disqualify him for slapping the face of the sect in front of everyone with his petty tricks!"

"Yeah! He has either cheated or the orb is malfunctioning!"

"Yes yes, he needs to be disqualified and punished!"

"Disqualify!"

"Punis.h.!.+"

After the seed of doubt was planted in them, it began to spread as everyone believed what the previous person had uttered, as it made sense to them. Because that was the only logical possibility in their minds and they would rather believe he had cheated or the orb is broken rather than believing such an otherworldly genius could exist in the world because that would mean they couldn't even be called trash in front of him.

Listening to the crowd of volunteers getting noisier and noisier, the elder shouted in irritation, "SILENCE!" And hearing this, everyone promptly went silent.

"You youngsters think this person without any kind of cultivation can cheat in front of me? This statement in itself is an insult to me! There is no way he has cheated under my watchful eyes, and also, the orb can't be cheated, that's something impossible to do, so put those childish thoughts that he has cheated completely aside."

Listening to the berating of the elder who criticized them, the volunteers could no longer protest anymore, so their only option was to just accept the elder's words who was the expert here, though some still believed he was cheating.

"However, even I thought that maybe the orb is malfunctioning or that it's broken, so..." As he voiced this, he turned his head toward Virus and asked, "What's your name?"

"Vee." Virus replied randomly, which made the other volunteers angry at his rude and casual response.

"I see, Vee youngster, I will test you once again, with another orb which is completely new and definitely with no problems whatsoever, so tell me... do you accept to redo the evaluation?" The elder questioned after hearing Virus' name.

"Why not." Virus replied casually once again without any kind of respect showing in his voice, but the elder seemed not to care about this at all as he responded back, "Good!"

Then, out of nowhere, an orb appeared in his hand which he placed on the table beside the previous...o...b.. "Okay, touch it."

Without uttering anything in response, Virus only placed his left hand on the orb once again and one minute later, the orb began changing colors again.

Black, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, azure, purple, pink, white and finally...

Colorless!

Seeing this, everyone was astonished to no ends once again, and the elder's eyes began to s.h.i.+ne greatly as he began talking in a louder voice, "Good good good! This is unheard of! This is probably a myth happening before my own eyes, great! Vee youngster, your body is beyond the word genius or even demon level genius, I don't even know what to call you anymore... you're simply a monster! No... even the word monster would be an understatement!"
