Chapter 229: Chapter 229: Talent ’Shared

"Alright, then come with me, and I’ll test your Talent Skill."

"I have my student records here, there’s no need to test for Talent Skill. I can just show you and see if it’s suitable."

Wang Hou waved his hand, "That’s not enough, we need to see the specific effects of your Talent Skill, gather data from all aspects, and strive to maximize value. We’re professionals after all."

"Okay." Ye Ajian thought for a moment, then followed.

As they walked, Ye Ajian curiously asked, "So you guys must be an organization, right? What’s it called? How come I’ve never heard of it before?"

"It’s normal that you haven’t heard of us. Anyone who hasn’t awakened doesn’t know about our organization." Wang Hou said with a smile.

Ye Ajian realized in an instant that indeed, those who haven’t awakened don’t need to know about this organization.

Naturally, they wouldn’t know.

"What’s the name of your organization?"

"Our organization has existed since ancient times, it’s called ’matchmaker’."

Matchmaker.

Ye Ajian thought about it, it was quite an apt name.

As long as there are men and women, this profession would never disappear.

Soon, Ye Ajian was led into a building.

The building looked quite peculiar, pointed like a church, standing alone, not fitting in with the surrounding architecture.

It wasn’t very large, but inside, there were many people, all young men and women.

Entering the building’s lobby, the soft murmurs of conversation were all about finding a suitable Artifact Spirit or Spirit Master.

"See? I didn’t lie to you, right?" Wang Hou led the way.

Ye Ajian nodded, "Well, I didn’t expect this. Though you don’t look much, you do speak the truth."

"I’ll take that as a compliment."

As they spoke, Wang Hou guided him to the door of a room.

"This is where we specifically test Talent Skills, where professionals will assess."

Opening the door, Wang Hou led him in.

At this moment, the bodyguards behind wanted to follow in, but Wang Hou stopped them.

"Sorry, this is the core secret that ’matchmaker’ depends on for survival, unrelated personnel cannot enter."

As he spoke, he added, "You know, the competition is fierce in our line of work. It’s not just us who are ’matchmakers’."

Ye Ajian agreed, so it wasn’t free after all.

He then said to the four bodyguards, "You guys just wait here at the door."

"Young Master, the Family Head instructed us not to leave your side."

Ye Ajian didn’t have bodyguards at school before, but after awakening, bodyguards were assigned.

"It’s fine, you guys just wait outside, nothing will happen."

After saying this, Ye Ajian walked straight into the room.

The door closed behind him, and bodyguards had no choice but to wait outside.

After entering the room, there was another room, and Wang Hou led him into one of them which had four middle-aged people, two men and two women.

Seeing Ye Ajian enter, they showed no particular reaction, only saying indifferently, "Stand on that platform and then display your Talent Skill."

"Nice to meet you, but my Talent Skill can’t be displayed," said Ye Ajian.

"Can’t be displayed? What is your skill?"

There were many skills that couldn’t be displayed; this was no oddity, but most weren’t that they couldn’t be displayed at all, but that they couldn’t be displayed alone.

"My Talent is called ’Shared’. It shares life and abilities with the Contractor," Ye Ajian explained.

Hearing this, the four of them looked surprised.

Symbiosis?

This was the first time they had heard of such a skill.

Such a skill really couldn’t be demonstrated by a single person, however, it’s unlikely there would ever be a chance to display it. Sharing life and abilities, who would want to share with someone at the F Talent Level?

Higher-level and lower-level contracts could work, but the prerequisite is that they should complement each other.

If your skill effectively lowers the other party’s quality of life, who would want to contract with you?

The several people frowned, looked at each other, and began discussing.

After a while, one of them said, "Your ability is quite special. We can register you first."

Just register first, huh?

Ye Ajian’s expression seemed to reveal his anticipation of this, because awakening as an F Talent Level wasn’t so bad for him; the Ye Family had resources and enhancing his Talent wasn’t difficult.

Although he couldn’t enhance it to something incredibly powerful, reaching a passing grade of D Talent Level was definitely doable.

But what really troubled him was his Talent.

Shared Talent.

Sharing life, abilities, and also Talent Level.

Even those at the SSS Talent Level would get dragged down to B Level by his ability. So with such a Talent Ability, who would dare to contract with him?

Hence, Ye Ajian was truly at a stroke of extreme bad luck.

"Alright, don’t be sad. Everyone has their own unique value, and you’re no exception." Wang Hou walked up to Ye Ajian and said consolingly.

Ye Ajian gave a bitter smile, "What value could I possibly have?"

"When I say you have value, you have it," Wang Hou’s tone was firm.

Ye Ajian couldn’t help but look up at him, his eyes puzzled, as if searching for hope.

Wang Hou smiled broadly, "You’re Ye Wudi’s son, how could you be without value? Your usefulness is immense."

Ye Ajian’s expression suddenly changed, and the next second, he saw Wang Hou’s eyes turn fierce.

"You...!"

He felt dizzy, his consciousness fading, and with a thud, he collapsed to the floor.

Several people immediately came out from around the room, picked up Ye Ajian, and ran out through a side path next to the room.

Wang Hou followed suit, and the four assessors also rapidly evacuated.

Soon the room was empty.

After a long while, the four bodyguards outside sensed something was wrong.

"Why hasn’t he come out after such a long time?"

"Let’s go in and check!"

But when they entered, there was nobody inside.

...

On the other side.

At the frontline defense of Northern City.

Xiao Zhan and his group arrived here.

They didn’t go meet Huang Yuan but went directly to see Zhang Wei instead.

It was practically confirmed that Huang Yuan had committed mutiny, confronting him would be pointless, and there was no use asking him about other matters. Hence, directly seeking Zhang Wei seemed more effective.

In his defense zone, Zhang Wei was surprised to see them arrive, "Miss Ye, why have you come? Didn’t we tell you not to come to the frontline? Is this the Chief of the Special Service Bureau? Why are you here, and who is this gentleman beside you?"

"Hello, I’m Lei Hong from the Security Bureau."

Security Bureau?

Lei Hong?

Lei Hong’s expression changed slightly. He was very clear about the function of the Security Bureau, but why come to a battlefield?

He knew something must have happened and asked, "Do you have some business with me here?"
