After a few hours of training, Ning was surprised how easily he could curve a bullet through mid-air now.

All he needed to do was focus his Aether to create Gravity or magnetic pull in a certain direction, and shoot his gun in that direction.

The moment the bullet entered that small area where everything was pulling, he could easily curve the bullet.

Ning could think of many different things he could do with such a newfound understanding of the usage of Aether.

Alexis had also said that if he were to keep learning this part more and more, he could also teleport one day like the Lord of the Aether tower did.

'Focus gravity onto a single point in space with such strength that it squeezes0 space until you need a single step to cross it,' that was what Ning came to learn.

Of course, just learning the theory didn't mean he could immediately teleport. To produce enough gravity to create such an amazing effect required at the very least for the user to be an Aether Saint.

Ning still had a long way to go.

He walked out of his home now that the training was over and made his way to the tower. freewebn ovel.c om

Alexis had already spoiled to him that he had been chosen, not that he would've expected otherwise.

This time, he would have to go to the Tower instead of the city lord's manor.

The tower was located quite a bit further away from the river, unlike the City lord's manor.

It was way to the right of the city, for Ning. Even though it was on his half of the city, it still took him almost the same amount of time as last time.

He reached the location of the tower, with a crowd formed in front of it, albeit just a fraction of what was in the City lord's manor last time.

Ning looked at the tower, with a hint of surprise to his eyes. He had seen it from his home all the way up in the mountains, but he never expected it to be so… small.

The tower was barely 3 floors tall and about 30 meters wide in diameter, granted that each floor was almost 7 meters tall.

This tower was nothing when he compared to the other towers he had seen through the many cities he had visited, which each held a tower.

As always, the tower shined with a dark purple glow as it reflected the morning light.

There was no wall stopping people from entering the tower on their own, but there were guards in each of the 4 entrances to the tower on all sides.

Since this tower was more of a law-keeping force than an educational place, not many people would dare to sneak in here anyway.

Ning waited, along with the crowd, for the members of the tower to come out, which they did very soon.

A girl walked out with a bunch of paper in hand and started speaking out names of the ones who were chosen to go through the testing.

Ning heard his name and waited for the calling to speak.

"Please, those of you whose name was called, stay in a line. We will bring you in to test you if you are eligible to join us or not," the girl said and left.

A table appeared out of nowhere and a person stayed on it with a bunch of applications on it that the people had previously filled.

"Jeriah Suld?" he called out. A person walked in front and the man at the table asked him to recite the information written on the application form as a way of identification.

Once he confirmed it was indeed the person, the man let Jeriah go inside.

"Hmm," Ning thought. "They are not using the Aether sphere thing to check him."

It made sense. Now that people could grow on their own using the technique, they would no longer need to check for one's potential.

Or so they would think, but Ning knew regardless of the techniques, there was still a matter of potential amongst people.

It seemed that since the tower had only accepted people with potential, who could easily breakthrough at any level of bottleneck, they didn't realize that normal people who lacked potential had a hard time breaking through those same bottlenecks.

That was what going to come back to bite them, which they absolutely deserved for denying the normal person what Ning considered their human rights.

Once Ning's name was called —Terran Forn— he stepped forward upto the man at the table and answered the simple questions to assure them of his identity.

Once that was done, he walked in.

A couple of people stood along the way, showing the people who were entering the way tower.

Ning saw a couple of people walk out. These were the ones that had walked in earlier. freewe bnovel.com

Judging by the nervous look on their faces, Ning assumed that they weren't given an answer on whether they were chosen or not.

'So I will have to wait for later, huh?' he thought.

He made his way to a training ground where a girl was trying her best to move a long piece of rope on the ground to wrap it around a wooden post in the distance.

She struggled for a few seconds to untangle the rope and then moved it towards the post to wrap it with it.

Once she was done, she nodded towards the examiner and moved on to the next test which was taking place to her right.

Ning walked up and took the spot she had left behind.

The examiner unwrapped the rope and put it where it had been in the start. "Incapacitate your enemy with this rope," the examiner said, pointing towards the post.

Ning nodded and put his hands forward. In a single instant, the rope came undone. Then, he used what he learned today with a single space gravity that started at the post and pointed at the midsection of the rope.

In the blink of an eye, the rope flew to the post and using the same momentum, wrapped around the post.

The examiner nearly dropped his jaw watching the test be complete in just a second.
