Chapter 15: The Written Examination Only 5 People Passed in History
As a "city within a city" within Blue Water City, Blue Water College occupies a vast area. I don't know if designers in this world are more literary and artistic. The road planning of the college is also quite abstract. It is completely different from "universities on Earth". The standard setting is "one road and n branches".
Following the assistant named Andy in front of him, he turned another corner and entered an unknown trail. Shen Yun finally gave up the plan of recording the route.
Well...it's not that the young master has a bad memory, it's just that the road is too long!
After making a useless excuse for his blindness, Shen Yun planned to chat with this "Andy Assistant" to pass the time and see if he could get any news.
"Um, Mr. Andy? I have a question to ask." He called out tentatively. Seeing Andy turning his head slightly to look at him, Shen Yuncai continued: "That's it, I want to ask, the college How many people have successfully entered school through the written examination over the years?”
"This question..." Andy paused and glanced at Shen Yun with some embarrassment: "From the time I entered the academy at the age of 13 until I successfully graduated at 22 and stayed in the academy as an assistant for 3 years, in total, I have been It’s been 12 years.”
"Uh...yeah, time flies by so fast..." Shen Yun chuckled dryly and agreed. He was a little confused as to why this young-looking college assistant suddenly wanted to start a "thinking about those days" plot with him.
"Well...actually what I want to say is that in the past 12 years..." After saying this, Andy turned his face to the front of their march, as if there was a beautiful woman posing on the road ahead, only turning the back of his head. It was left to Shen Yun before he continued: "In the past 12 years, I...I have never seen anyone who can pass the written examination...I haven't heard of it before..."
"Teng!" Chen Yun's face suddenly turned green!
Are you mistaken? How can a person fail to pass the written test for more than ten years? Even the killer teacher known as the "Four Famous Catchers" from my cousin's university in the previous life was said to be able to guarantee a 20% passing rate for the subject. !
"Sister! Are you asking primary school students to do college entrance examination questions? I heard that some geniuses in the juvenile class can pass easily!" Shen Yun really couldn't understand what kind of "written test" could be so cruel. This is simply It’s already the type where humans and animals are extinct!
"arrive."
Before Shen Yun could completely demonize the "written test" in his mind, Andy reminded that their destination had been reached.
The green tiles and wooden doors are open, and the red walls are covered with moss.
Looking at the quiet and elegant small building in front of him, Shen Yun temporarily put aside the scary association with the written examination and praised: "The examination room environment in Andalus is really good. You see it is quiet and green here, even in summer. It probably won’t be too hot!”
Jelly, who was lying quietly on top of Shen Yun's head, also agreed. Before Shen Yun could say anything, he jumped and rolled on the surrounding grass.
Looking at Jelly curiously, Andy shook his head: "This is not an examination room, it's just the office building of Vice President Wu Lan. He will make detailed arrangements for your written examination later."
"..."
Suddenly, the education image of Andalus collapsed in Shen Yun's heart. The examination room that was originally thought to reflect humanistic care was instantly replaced by "the office of the fat-bellied vice-dean".
Andy turned to look at Shen Yun in surprise. Andy didn't understand why this child suddenly seemed to have been hit by something.
Sigh... This kid looks quite handsome, but he seems a bit stupid. He doesn't look like someone who can break records...
Shen Yun didn't know that Andy had already sentenced him to "death", but quickly overcame the previous blow and continued to follow Andy heartlessly.
Pushing open the courtyard door, Andy straightened his collar, and after confirming that nothing was wrong, he reached out and knocked on the door in front of him: "Dong dong, Vice President Wulan, I am Andy, and I have a child who wants to participate. If he takes a written examination to enter the school, Tutor Thatcher asked me to bring him to you."
"Come in, I'm in the study on the second floor."
Shen Yun was shocked. This slightly old and steady voice actually appeared directly in his ears. Is this the wonderful use of magic in this world?
Opening the door respectfully, Andy led Shen Yun straight towards the stairs leading to the second floor.
"The living room, kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom, this looks like a private residence. Do all offices in other worlds look like this?" He maliciously speculated that the Vice-President, whom he had never met before, was in a "public residence for private use." , Shen Yun was also very envious of such a house.
Walking to the second floor, Andy knocked on the door respectfully. After hearing the sound of "come in" from inside the house, he led Shen Yun and carefully pushed the door open.
The study room was not big. As soon as Shen Yun opened the door, he saw an old man with a long beard sitting opposite the door. The old man wearing a pair of small magic crystal glasses was also squinting to observe him.
"Andy, is this little guy trying to take the written test?"
Before Andy could speak, Vice President Wulan spoke first.
After bowing and saluting, Andy said softly: "Yes, Vice Dean, according to the determination of Instructor Thatcher, this child is almost 16 years old and should not be able to enroll in school. But considering that he is a long-distance traveler, I trekked to Blue Water, so I thought if I could give him a chance."
"Well, the original purpose of the written examination was to allow children who have extraordinary qualifications but have passed the age limit to have a channel to enter school. After all, although it is recognized in mainland China that the best time to start studying is before the age of 15, no one can I guarantee that no one can break through this limit." Nodding, Vice President Wulan said slowly.
"But..." After hesitating for a moment, Wu Lan stroked his waist-length white beard, and then looked at Shen Yun seriously: "I won't hide it from you. From the establishment of Blue Water Academy to the present for thousands of years, it is true that There are people who passed the written examination and achieved remarkable achievements after receiving special training from the college, but... 5 of them!"
Spreading a palm and shaking it in front of Shen Yun, Wulan continued: "Only 5 people passed the written test! Moreover, the process of the written test is also dangerous! So, do you still want to participate?"
Is it dangerous? Is it still dangerous to take a written test? Is Blue Water Academy a strange organization that will kick you if you can't answer the questions?
Under Ulan's solemn gaze, Shen Yun put away his careless and relaxed expression, looked at Ulan with the same serious expression, and said slowly: "Vice Dean, I..."
Why……
Sighing secretly, Wu Lan was a little disappointed. Although what he said was terrible, there were indeed very few people who passed the written examination in the history of the college, but he still hoped that the children in front of him would dare to give it a try and at least strive for their own future. But now it seems that this child is giving up.
"Vice Dean, I... I have already paid the fee of one crystal coin!"
"Ahem!!" Before he could catch his breath, Wu Lan felt that the magic power in his body was fluctuating. He hurriedly went to the study to pick up the teacup and took a sip to suppress the anger.
"Refund! I'll give you the money back!" To actually have hope for this brat, Wu Lan felt that he must have had a brain problem from meditating for too long.
But Shen Yun smiled, not afraid of Ulan's old red face at all: "Vice Dean, I didn't say I wanted a refund. I mean, I paid all the money, how could I not participate? .”
"Oh?" Being fooled by Shen Yun's heavy breathing, Wulan was not angry. Instead, he looked at Shen Yun with interest and said: "Little guy, you have to think clearly. The danger in the written test is not mine. I'm fooling you!"
"It's difficult, it's nothing! The worst thing is that you just have to be serious. The young master will be serious, but even he will be scared!" When he said the last sentence, Shen Yun was really serious.
Nodding silently, Ulan didn't say anything more. He just ordered Andy who was standing aside: "Go and inform the two mentors, Javier and Sheila, and ask them to wait at the 10th level trial ground. We will be here soon. .”
"Yes, Vice President." Andy responded, glanced at Shen Yun, then turned around and went out.
Tsk tsk... I am the only candidate who has to find two tutors. It seems that the team of invigilators is very large. Did many students cheat in the previous written examination?
Unaware that Shen Yun was having random thoughts in his mind, Wu Lan had already sat down at his table and called to Shen Yun: "Little guy, stop standing and come sit down. They are still waiting for a while."
After thinking for a while, Wu Lan smiled kindly at Shen Yun: "I have secretly checked just now. Although your real age is a bit older than what Andy said, it is not a big problem. Anyway, you are indeed If there is no level, then it will not prevent you from taking the written test."
After a pause, Ulan added: "Since the college has not had students take the written test for many years, if you have any unclear questions about the written test, you can ask me now, and I will answer everything I can."
"Why does the written test require no rank?" Shen Yun never thought about this. Taking a cultural test is just a matter of taking a cultural test. What does it have to do with rank.
Wulan smiled: "There are two reasons for this problem. First, all new students of Blue Water Academy must be unranked, which is a prerequisite. Second, because the students who take the written examination are all older, so Only Wu Jie can test their truest potential, or in other words, stimulate their greatest potential."
Shen Yun understood the first reason very well, but as for the second reason mentioned by Ulan, Shen Yun still felt a little confused and couldn't figure out the situation.
Before Shen Yun could think about it, Wulan had already stood up: "Okay, they should be almost ready. Come with me. I haven't seen the written test in so many years. Today, old man, I will go over and take a look. Little guy, I hope You can pass! Andalus... needs genius so much..."
It can be seen that Wu Lan’s last sentence was very sincere! It also contained great meaning!
Although he really wanted to ask if he could discuss it if he failed, and return the crystal coin to himself, or half of it, but looking at the sincere blessing from the old man in front of him, Shen Yun was really embarrassed to say this.
Really... Why are you being so sensational when you have nothing to do?
Helplessly following Wu Lan through countless paths, Shen Yun finally arrived at the 10th level trial site of Blue Water Academy.
"Vice President Wulan, there were two 10th-level students practicing here. I asked them to leave temporarily." Entering the venue, they were greeted by three people. In addition to Andy, there were a man and a woman. Look. Here are the two mentors mentioned before.
"Okay, little guy, do you need to prepare anything else?" Ulan nodded, then looked back at Shen Yun who was teasing the jelly.
"Ah? Oh, no more. You can start at any time." Putting the jelly back on top of his head, Shen Yun hoped that this guy would help him in the written test later. After all, he would have an extra pair of eyes.
"Well, then put your magic pet next to you and let's get started!" Pointing at the jelly, Ulan did not give Shen Yun any chance to cheat.
Helplessly putting the jelly aside, Shen Yun walked back.
"Choose one of them and then start?" Ulan said, signaling to the two instructors, a male and a female.
Hmm? I still have the right to choose the invigilator?
In confusion and confusion, Shen Yun chose the female mentor.
Seeing that Shen Yun had made his choice, Wulan signaled Andy and the male mentor to retreat, and then said to Shen Yun: "Teacher Sheila is a level 10 water Mage. You only need to remain undefeated under her for 5 minutes to pass. Of course, Since you want to test your true potential, Instructor Sheila will gradually increase your power based on your performance, so there will be certain dangers. You have to be careful! Okay, let’s go to the field and start now!" After saying that, he turned around and retreated to Andy and the others.
"!!!"
What's going on? Shen Yun is confused!
Isn't it said to be a written test? Why did it suddenly become a full-scale martial arts? And let yourself fight against a 10th-level Ming Mage without any level. Although the opponent can control the power, it is too...
"Isn't it a written test? Why do we have to fight?" This must be asked clearly. Shen Yun doesn't want to be confused.
Facing Shen Yun's question, Wulan was even more confused.
"Yes, let's compete. How can we try if we don't compete?"
