Chapter 987: Start of the Exam
Translator: Lordbluefire
Sun Mo’s fa might be great, but it lacked the feeling of reverence.
At the very least, the great teachers on the scene wouldn’t wish to offend him. However, they didn’t fear him either. But with regards to secondary saints, things were different.
Saints were usually too rare to be seen. Hence, secondary saints were equal to people standing at the peak of the world.
Outside the gate of the Golden Cherry Academy, the atmosphere was silent. Everyone was very reserved, like little kids who were being glared at by their parents.
Naturally, this wasn’t caused by that youth but the 9-star flag on the carriage.
This was the instinctual reverence people felt toward the title ‘secondary saint’.
Dang! Dang! Dang!
The lodious sound of the bell rang, and the large tal gate of the school opened.
The examinees didn’t move. They were looking at the youth and actually opened up a pathway for him.
Zhou Wenbin nodded to the people on both sides and walked in.
After that, everyone waited for him to move a certain distance before they followed behind him.
“Wow, how cool!”
Xianyu Wei felt very envious. After that, she looked at Sun Mo. “Teacher, you should hurry up and beco a secondary saint. At that ti, we can enjoy such preferential treatnt when we participate in examinations as well.”
“What’s so great about it?”
Lu Zhiruo’s lips twitched. Zhou Wenbin said he didn’t want any special treatnt, but he was sitting in the carriage of his great grandfather and chose to arrive in such a grandiose manner.
“Don’t squeeze, don’t panic. Enter in an orderly manner!”
“If you continue walking in this direction, that’s the public toilet. The teaching building is over there. Up ahead is our dical center. If any of you feel discomfort, you can go there and visit a doctor, it will be free of charge.”
“Please don’t throw things around randomly and do your best to maintain the cleanliness of the academy.”
The higher-year school seniors volunteered to maintain order in the campus as well as be the direction-givers.
“Other than the examinees, all the others should halt!”
The head of teaching stood before the door and had a dark look on his face. He looked like he was a door guardian.
“Teacher, I’m heading in.”
Li Ziqi looked at Sun Mo.
“Do your best!”
Sun Mo encouraged.
The other martial siblings also hurriedly sent their blessings.
Li Ziqi entered the campus and her fists were tightly clenched. (This ti around, I have to beco the champion no matter what.)
…
“Why do I feel that eldest martial sister’s expression wasn’t too good?”
After Li Ziqi walked far away, Xianyu Wei asked in a low voice.
“Because of that youth!”
Qin Yaoguang chortled, “There’s only a single secondary saint in the Nine Provinces with the surna of ‘Zhou’. You should know the reason now, right?”
“Ah?”
Xianyu Wei was badly shocked. She knew that her eldest martial sister had once tried to enter the tutelage of a secondary saint with the surna ‘Zhou’ but was rejected because her aptitude was too bad.
Even though the Great Tang Emperor requested it, it was useless.
“Could that youth be here to target Ziqi deliberately?” Jiang Leng frowned.
“Not many people can sit in the Zhou Clan’s carriage. Moreover, those who can use the flag of Secondary Saint Zhou are even fewer,” said Lu Zhiruo.
Lu Zhiruo felt a headache. That little fellow nad Zhou Wenbin was the great grandson of Secondary Saint Zhou. He was very famous among the descendants in top-level great teacher circles.
Tantai Yutang and Jiang Leng cast a glance at Lu Zhiruo. (Why do you know all these?)
One must know that among the martial siblings, other than Qin Yaoguang and the sickly invalid, everyone else completely had no interest in gossip.
…
“So that person is Sun Mo. He looks the sa as the scene recorded by the image-recording stone and he is indeed very handso.”
Zhou Wenbin entered the teaching building and looked a little depressed. He even wanted to throw a little tantrum.
As a public figure, he couldn’t throw the face of his clan. Hence, he would pay a lot of attention to his bearing. Even when he was waiting, he didn’t dare to move about and look around randomly.
After entering the school gate, he rely cast a glance at Sun Mo in passing.
He also paid attention to Li Ziqi who was following Sun Mo.
After all, Li Ziqi was the reason why he had decided to participate in this examination.
“But why is she here as well?” Zhou Wenbin frowned. “Is she friends with Li Ziqi?”
Following the guidance of the volunteer, Zhou Wenbin smoothly found his exam venue in the teaching building. After that, he chose a seat in the back rows and sat down.
According to his usual habits, he would definitely choose to sit in the front row. This was his confidence as well as his thod to display his outstandingness.
But today, he chose to sit at the back because if he was lucky enough to be in the sa exam venue as Li Ziqi, he would be able to personally witness her strength.
“You best not be unable to withstand a single strike!”
The exam would begin half an hour later. So, the participants didn’t dare to delay and were in no mood to stroll idly around. They directly entered the classroom to wait.
…
“It’s this place!”
The volunteer replied to the little sunny egg, indicating that she had reached her examination venue.
“Thank you, senior school sister!”
Li Ziqi thanked her, but just when she was about to enter, soone knocked into her from behind.
Bang!
The little sunny egg stumbled and she fell headfirst into the chest of that volunteer.
“Sorry!”
Li Ziqi hurriedly apologized. She turned her head and saw a girl about 17 to 18 years old directly walking into the venue.
Li Ziqi originally didn’t mind it, but the other party suddenly stopped and said a sentence that made her very unhappy.
“What are you looking at? A good dog shouldn’t block the path.”
Huang ibo glared at her ferociously.
“Don’t make a scene, do you want your qualifications to be stripped?”
The volunteer warned.
“You are just soone watching the door, do you have this authority?”
Huang ibo mocked.
“You…”
The volunteer’s expression turned ashen, feeling like her dignity was being profaned. However, she really wasn’t qualified to do anything. This was the first ti she was directly being pointed out like that by soone.
“Senior school sister, I’m sorry. It’s my fault.”
Li Ziqi apologized again while sighing in her heart. She had run into a bad-tempered female gangster this ti around.
After all, the exam involved one’s career and the pressure was exceedingly great. The hot-tempered girl’s actions were understandable!
The kind little sunny egg decided to forgive her.
Other than people like Huang ibo, the majority of examinees, even those who were 20 years old, were as obedient as grandchildren.
Not long later, a judging panel consisting of five great teachers entered the classroom.
There were one 5-star, one 4-star, and three 3-star.
Upon seeing this group, all the examinees inhaled a breath of cold air and instantly felt that the pressure on them had greatly increased.
The exam location this year was at the Golden Cherry Academy. The great teachers here had no way to give lectures and were naturally pulled in to act as examiners.
In any case, this position wasn’t too important, and 1-star and 2-star were usually the ones doing this. However, there were no low-ranking examiners this ti around. It wasn’t that the judging panel objected but rather, there was simply no one.
From this, the quality of the teaching force for an ‘A’ grade school could be seen. The teachers here were all 3-star at the very last.
Liu Fan stood on the stage and his gaze slowly swept through these examinees, containing imnse pride and prestige within.
So examinees didn’t dare to match his gaze and shifted their eyes away.
They had no idea that the exam had begun at this mont, and their performances were being recorded into their case file.
“The aptitude of the participants this year is much inferior compared to the past.”
Liu Fan’s lips twitched. When he entered, he had cast Model Teacher on himself.
This great teacher halo would allow the great teacher to radiate different auras based on their heart states. For example, he had just exuded an imposing and tyrannical aura, like a teacher with very strict requirents.
What Liu Fan wanted to do was to disrupt the heart states of these examinees, making them nervous so they couldn’t perform their best, getting rid of those who were unqualified.
Indeed, one would be able to pass the first segnt as long as they grasped three great teacher halos. However, if you couldn’t cast it on the stage due to nervousness or whatnot, that would be a problem.
The pressure exuded by five great teachers was still very great. Quite a few people could no longer be at ease and even felt like peeing.
Dang! Dang! Dang!
The bell rang out again.
“Tis up, the exam has officially begun. The people whose nas I called are to imdiately co up the stage and display three halos before the five examiners!”
“Rember, the ti limit is 30 breaths of ti. If you cannot do it, you will be eliminated.”
Liu Fan spoke.
Hua~
30 breaths of ti ant the ti it took to breathe normally 30 tis. So examinees imdiately exclaid due to nervousness.
“Isn’t the preparation ti too short? I would need over 10 breaths even for a fart!”
A person complained in a low voice, but it drew the attention of everyone.
“Stop making a racket. The examinee in the eighth row, fifth seat from the east, if you criticize the rules again, you will be imdiately expelled.”
Liu Fan warned.
The classroom imdiately fell silent.
Liu Fan always did things swiftly and decisively. He didn’t waste words and directly started this segnt of the exam.
“Huang Lei, get up on the stage!”
A youth stood up. He had a bitter look on his face.
(Why am I the first one?)
(Am I not too unlucky?)
Huang Lei went up the stage. He inhaled deeply and glanced at Liu Fan. “Can I begin?”
“You still have 12 breaths of ti remaining!”
Liu Fang reminded.
“Ah?”
Huang Lei imdiately panicked. Large amounts of sweat oozed from his forehead. So, the countdown of the 30 breaths of ti had started since his na was called?
The mont he thought he had not much ti left, Huang Lei grew anxious. But the more anxious he was, the tougher it was for him to release his great teacher halos.
Casting one wasn’t like playing a ga where you could do it instantly just by pressing a keypad. The great teacher was required to have an appropriate and matching state of heart.
For example, when casting Misleading Students to scold other great teachers, the user had to be able to face up to his conscience and stand on the moral high ground, truly feeling that the other party was misleading their students. Their heart state was sothing like feeling sorry for the students and wanting to protect them.
Swish~
A great teacher halo appeared. It was Encyclopedic Knowledge. After that, he quickly cast another one, while Liu Fan suddenly spoke out.
“Ti’s up. Two great teacher halos. Failed, you are eliminated!”
As Liu Fan spoke, he used the writing brush to strike off Huang Lei’s na on his list.
Huang Lei’s mind was shaken as he stood there stunned. His eyes started to grow red as his tears slid down his face.
“I failed just like this?”
“Next, Zhou She!” Liu Fang called out.
After Huang Lei was made an example, the other examinees imdiately beca 120% focused. When Zhou She heard his na, he swiftly walked to the stage.
Three great teacher halos were released one after another.
“You are too anxious. As a great teacher, you should pay attention to your bearing.”
Liu Fang criticized.
This individual had talent but not enough experience.
The vice examiner pulled Huang Lei’s arm and dragged him out of the classroom.
At this mont, the examination entered the right track.
Liu Fan then read out two nas that were eliminated in a single go, causing everyone to feel fear in their hearts.
The ratio of elimination was about 5:1. It was pretty terrifying.
Zhou Wenbin was calm and composed and was observing Li Ziqi. But very soon, he heard his na being called.
“Zhou Wenbin...you are next!”
When Liu Fan pronounced this na, he paused slightly. After all, this great grandson of Secondary Saint Zhou had so fa, and even high-ranking great teachers like them had heard of his na before.
Swish~
The gazes of so students imdiately turned to him.
“Is this fellow very famous?”
“He is the great grandson of Secondary Saint Zhou, what do you think?”
“Damn, why am I so unlucky to be in the sa batch as such a character?”
The examinees mumbled to each other. Those whose standards weren’t up to the mark imdiately revealed looks of sorrow. After all, there was a limit to the number of people who could pass in every batch.
Basically, only 300 of them could pass.
This Zhou Wenbin had definitely taken one of the slots.. This naturally ant that only 299 slots were remaining for the others.
