The appraiser is an official stationed at the awakening ceremony to assess students' abilities. He uses a handheld scanner to examine Li Wen's palm, scanning multiple times to confirm the result. His demeanor is professional and detached; he does not show any personal reaction to the outcome. He announces the result flatly: "Divine Tree Prototype, no clear function, classified as 'Waste Seed'." He does not intervene when others laugh at Li Wen's result. His presence reinforces the institutional categorization that defines students' fates. He is a minor character but plays a key role in establishing Li Wen's initial status and the societal hierarchy based on ability assessments.
