Chapter 30 30 - Embarrassed Hanna
Unlike entrance exams where students had to take several written tests to get enough grades to enter universities, the entrance exam for awaken students was different.
Students had to apply to the University they wanted, and each University had its own criteria for evaluating students.
While some universities only assessed each student's Rank, others could test physical fitness, another could test the student's intelligence and strategy, while others could test how well the student hunts monsters.
It all depends on what the focus of each University is.
Leo intended to apply to MU (Military University), so he already imagined that the test that the evaluator would pass for him would be the most complicated.
But looking away, Leo saw that Chris was still hesitating which University he would choose.
"Hey bro, why are you standing there with that lost expression on your face?" Leo got to Chris' side and asked.
Hearing Leo talking to him, Chris calmed down a bit and responded. "I don't know if I can pass the MU.."
Hearing this Leo shook his head. "Have you looked at the examiners?" Leo asked.
Chris who just looked down without confidence after seeing he had a group of examiners just shook his head in denial.
"Then look up and tell me who the MU examiner is and what she's doing." Leo said in a mysterious way.
Curious, Chris ignored the fear he was feeling and looked up, only to see that there was only a single woman wearing a military uniform, and to Chris' surprise, this woman was looking straight into his eyes.
Chris was shocked to see this and lowered his head in fright. "Why is she looking at me?" he asked Leo.
Leo smiled as he explained. "Is there anyone else here with a special Quirk? I think even if there was an Awaken Bronze 5 Stars among the students she wouldn't even pay as much attention to it as she is giving you."
Chris was shocked to hear this. He was so used to being ignored by others, he couldn't believe the MU examiner was interested in him!
"Now do you know where you're going to apply?" Leo smiled.
"Yes, I'm going to MU." Chris responded confidently.
"Okay, let's go together." Leo was proud of Chris' small change in mindset and started taking his friend to the evaluator.

p??d? n?ve? Hanna is the name of the MU examiner, initially she would not even come to this school, since it had been a few years since no MU qualified students had appeared here, so much so that to facilitate this process the Universities even decided that the schools should carry out a combat pre-test with the students to define which Universities should send an examiner or not.
There were schools that not even the 4 Big Universities found decent students, let alone MU.
But precisely because of this pre-test of combat between students that MU and the 4 Big Universities became interested in this school.
The Big 4 Universities were interested in the students who achieved the first 3 places in this pre-test, but MU was only interested in a single such student.
A young boy who became an Awaken just a day before the Pre-Test and with the strength of an Awaken Bronze 1 Star managed to beat a Bronze 2 Stars student who had already become Awaken a few months ago.
All this because of this kid's Quirk, the Space Quirk, which according to the report, allowed this kid to teleport anywhere at any time!
Space quirks were extremely rare and desired in the army, so Hanna was specially assigned to come take this student's entrance exam.
But what surprised her quite a bit was that apparently, despite having a very powerful Quirk, this student's self-confidence was very low, to the point of only looking at the floor after seeing the group of evaluators.
'He won't be afraid to apply to MU, right? That would be a disaster.' Hanna thought worriedly, since if that student got scared of MU and applied to one of the Big 4 Universities, the only thing she could do was respect his decision, or try to offer him more resources.
Having to do this as an MU examiner was a very humiliating thing, so Hanna was reluctant to do something like that.
But after a few seconds, the other student who caught her attention went to talk to the Space Quirk boy.
People didn't know, but Hanna was an Awaken Royal Gold. Despite being only 30 years old, she had reached the Royal Gold Rank last month and was promoted to dean of one of MU's courses.
Her idea is to get Chris to become her disciple, so her attention was completely focused on him, even ignoring the Bronze 4 Stars student in that class.
And with her strength, she could hear their conversation from this distance.
But hearing Leo's deduction about her attention being completely focused on Chris to the point that even if she had a Bronze 5 Star student she would possibly ignore him, it made Hanna's cheeks redden with embarrassment.
She had to admit, Leo was right, even a Bronze 5 Star student wouldn't be as attractive as a student with a Quirk Special, but letting a student point out that she was doing something like that was still a shameful thing for Hanna.
Luckily after hearing these words from the Bronze 4 Stars kid, Chris got more excited and decided to come and sign up for MU with his friend.
Seeing the two of them coming towards her, Hanna was quite happy, as she saw that if it wasn't for this boy, Chris wouldn't have come. Besides that this kid's deduction about the current situation was pretty good, making Hanna give him an approval point.
Usually Bronze 3 Stars students already become quite arrogant in the schools where they study, Bronze 4 Stars students can be even more arrogant, and it is up to MU to deal with these students and make them act like a qualified military.
But this kid who is an Awaken Bronze 4 Stars is apparently pretty sensible.
'Very good.' Hanna smiled inwardly as she looked at the two boys coming towards her.
