Following the team to the magic power testing area, the testing personnel explained the precautions as usual and announced the new passing standards. Caleb didn’t listen carefully to the specifics; if he couldn’t pass, no one present could.

The testing speed was fast, and it was Rina Hamazaki’s turn shortly.

“Rina, your magic power has increased so quickly.” As soon as Rina Hamazaki’s test result was announced, nearby girls gathered around in surprise. Rina Hamazaki showed no pride, instead shaking her head with some regret. “It looks like I still can’t beat Yukina this time…” She gazed at Caleb with a hint of resentment. Every time they engaged in Dual Cultivation, Yukina Sasaki could tolerate one or two more sessions than the rest of them. Over time, Yukina Sasaki, who was initially a fighter, now had the highest magic power among them.

Caleb shrugged. It wasn’t favoritism on his part. Yukina Sasaki simply had good talent and a good physique; she could endure a few more rounds of cultivation than the others, and she recovered the fastest. When everyone else was exhausted, who else could Caleb cultivate with but her?

“Next, Ruri Kurumizaka.”

As the test proceeded, the girls surrounding Rina Hamazaki gradually dispersed, their attention drawn to the other three. Ruri Kurumizaka and Yuuki Shinamura’s magic power were in no way inferior to Rina Hamazaki’s, and Yukina Sasaki even surpassed the former top-ranked student, taking first place in the first-year class.

Looking at the four of them, the girls’ eyes were full of envy. The fact that Caleb could help girls cultivate was no secret, but they never expected the effect to be so good. Although it was a bit late, they wondered if Caleb still wanted more women… Some girls with good looks, confidence, and a relatively open lifestyle fixed their eyes on Caleb, batting their eyes and scheming. This included Touko Sakuradai, who had tasted him once. Since that time, she felt like she had fallen ill. She wanted no one but Caleb. However, her current low strength required her to consume essence, so she had to routinely seek out nourishment.

As a succubus, drawing essence was supposed to be a pleasure, but now Touko Sakuradai only found it bothersome. After tasting Caleb, she couldn’t muster any interest in other men. It was like tasting the finest delicacy; other foods tasted bland, but she had to eat to survive. If Touko Sakuradai, a succubus, felt this way, imagine the other women who had made love with Caleb. Miyuna, Rena Kurashiki, Rina Tsushima, and others—all of them longed to have a session with Caleb again. Other men held absolutely no interest for them, and forced contact made them feel intensely repulsed. They didn’t need to consume essence to survive, so they would rather use their hands or a pink vibrator than be with anyone else again.

However, they were disappointed. After that one time, Caleb hadn’t paid any attention to them, even though other girls had had several sessions, and it still wasn’t their turn. Some of them were even taken to Caleb’s home and had formed a small organization led by Sakura Miyajima… They wanted to join but were refused. Touko Sakuradai and the others weren’t stupid. After realizing they were being treated differently, a quick comparison revealed the reason. They were angry about it for a long time, secretly cursing Caleb as a virgin-obsessed pervert. But despite the cursing, if Caleb beckoned now, they would still willingly throw themselves at him.

After several experiments with controlled variables, Caleb thoroughly understood this side effect of the Dual Cultivation ability. This ability only made them find other men ‘tasteless,’ not ‘inedible.’ As long as they overcame the psychological feeling of aversion, they could still marry and have children. After realizing this, Caleb felt even less burdened. For these wanton beauties, unless he wanted some thrilling playtime or to conduct related experiments, they would remain in [Placement Play] status. He hardly had enough time for his good girls, let alone time to satisfy them.

Ignoring the multitude of alluring glances, Caleb bypassed the crowd and arrived at the testing point.

“Uesugi, good afternoon.”

“Senpai, good afternoon.” The student council member responsible for the test recognized Caleb. After a friendly greeting, the test began. Many people were watching Caleb’s test results. Since it was his first time participating, a good number were simply curious. But others were waiting to laugh at him. What kind of improvement could a latecomer achieve in just a few months?

Some impatient people had already started seeking attention.

“Rina, that pretty boy must have been drained by you all. Does he even have time to extract magic power?”

“Yukina, judging by the look of him, he probably can’t satisfy you. How about you try me? I guarantee satisfaction.”

“Ruri…”

“Yuuki…”

It wasn’t just Rina Hamazaki and the other three; several self-assured boys also appeared in front of other girls. While cooperating with the test, Caleb mentally took note of every guy who spoke dirty words and flirted with Rina Hamazaki and the others. The Slutty Four initially wanted to directly retort—these guys couldn’t even beat them, so where did they get their confidence? But thinking of Caleb’s strength, the only words they ended up saying were four:

“You are dead meat.”

Faced with the calmly smiling Yukina Sasaki and the other three, some guys immediately realized something was wrong and quickly shut their mouths. Unfortunately, it was too late.

“Caleb Uesugi, Magic Power Perfect Score.” After announcing Caleb’s test result, the student council member in charge of the test exclaimed, “Uesugi, you cultivate so fast! Vice President Tsubaki’s eye for talent is really good.” Tsubaki Shinra didn’t just have a good eye; her influence was a major reason why he could successfully complete Beginner Magic Power cultivation so quickly. A-rank Tsubaki Shinra provided Caleb with enormous benefits from every Dual Cultivation session. Even though he was currently at a bottleneck, the various skills Tsubaki Shinra possessed still made Caleb look forward to every Dual Cultivation session with her.

Caleb could only keep these thoughts to himself. He humbly said, “It’s all thanks to Senpai Tsubaki’s excellent teaching.”

“By the way, senpai, what are we testing next?”

“Next up are the Physical and Combat Tests.”

“Alright, thank you, senpai.”

Caleb returned to Rina Hamazaki and the others, and the looks around them changed once more. For the first time, fear emerged in the boys’ envious and jealous eyes. The few who had been the most vocal now wished they could crawl into a hole. The girls’ eyes grew even brighter. Some girls who were previously more reserved also began to wonder if they could connect with Caleb. A man who was handsome, could help with cultivation, and was strong—throwing themselves at him might not be a bad idea.

In the subsequent Physical Test, Caleb again scored a Perfect Score without any suspense. Rina Hamazaki and the other four were also on the list. Constantly training with Caleb until exhaustion and passing out, combined with the Dual Cultivation enhancement, it was hard for their physiques not to be strong.

After the Physical Test, Caleb did not participate in the Combat Power Test. The student council member in charge of the test immediately passed him. The Combat Power Test was different from actual combat; it was just attacking a target created by magic. With such strong physique and magic power, there was no need to test his target practice.

“I heard that pretty boy is involved with the Student Council Vice President. Could he have cheated?”

“Hmm, probably. Why don’t you go try it in the actual combat test later?”

“Why don’t you go?”

“I’m not as strong as you!”

Listening to the surrounding whispers of doubt, a smile appeared on Caleb’s lips. This was exactly the effect he wanted, and his deliberate use of privilege in the final test was worth it. The people who doubted him largely overlapped with the group from before. Sure enough, a leopard cannot change its spots. Caleb was looking forward to fighting them in the practical combat test.

The commotion from the first-years’ test reached the upper grades, and many older male students eagerly looked at Caleb. After the practical combat test, there was also a Voluntary Ranking Battle. This battle was open to all grades. The top ten received generous rewards, which increased with the rank. The reward for first place was the highest: the ability to make a reasonable request to the academy. Whether it was a weapon, magical knowledge, or a magic potion, the school would satisfy it as much as possible.
