Upon entering, the elder moved to the inner part of the room and turned on a magical device mounted on the wall.
Accompanied by a soft humming sound, a faint blue magical light filled the entire room.
“This is the [Magic imager]. It will record everything about the exam to prevent any biases or unfairness during the process. Do you mind that?”
The elder looked at Su Yu, querying with his eyes.
“Of course not.’
Su Yu took a deep breath, adjusting himself to his top condition while recalling the questions he used to tackle in his previous life so that he could become fully prepared.
Seeing Su Yu’s utter confidence, a glint of admiration flickered in the elder’s eyes.
“When shall we begin?”
“We can start anytime.”
“Alright then, let us start. Let me explain the rules.”
The elder looked at Su Yu with his hands behind his back, his expression growing more solemn.
“The senior scholar exam consists of 30 questions. If you answer 21 of them correctly, you’ll pass. It is as simple as that.”
“21 questions?”, a hint of surprise flashed across Su Yu’s face.
“Is there a problem?”
“No, not at all, please proceed.”
Su Yu managed to hide the surprise on her face, and firmly set his mind at ease.
In his past life, the “senior scholar exam” required correct answers to 24 questions for passing. It was surprising that in the early stages of the exam, you only needed 21 correct answers.
“The first ten questions are written tests. Given the last-minute nature of this exam, let’s make it in the form of question-and-answer. It’s all the same.”
“Listen to the first question, ‘Where is the main production area of the Silvermoon Grass?’”
After a moment of thought, Su Yu replied loud and clear, “Silvermoon Grass is mainly found in the Frost River Valley in Thorn City of Lai Yin Empire, in the Tauren plantation of Rhode Island; in the Springsong Forest of Cloud City of the Goldfinch Empire, in Snowflake Forest Land of Giant Tree City…”
“That’s enough. You needn’t name more than three.”
Seeing Su Yu ready to go on as if listing dishes from a menu, the elder interrupted him.
However, from the first question, the elder could tell that Su Yu indeed had real talent and solid learning, which was why he was so confident about passing the exam.
“What’s the role of the Gold Lusterstone, one of the ingredients in the 6th-level potion [Eternal Fury]?”
“Once stimulated by an energy burst, Gold Lusterstone shatters and releases a great amount of energy. The reason Gold Lusterstone is added to the [Eternal Fury] potion is to expedite the release of the medicinal effect.”
“Absolutely correct! Now let’s move on to the third question, the theoretical structure of the Markmund model…
Thus, 10 question-and-answer questions were quickly concluded.
Apart from a question on “Bow and arrow air resistance calculation” that he couldn’t answer, Su Yu perfectly tackled 9 of the other questions.
The elder was very impressed with Su Yu’s performance.
In the [Scholar’s Temple], only one or two senior scholars emerged every couple of years, most of whom could only answer 6 or 7 questions correctly in the written test. Any candidate who could answer 8 questions correctly was rare. Su Yu had surprisingly answered 9 questions correctly!
“Looks like the temple will welcome some new blood.” The elder thought to himself.
“Next, is the drawing section. There are 5 drawing problems. You just need to outline what I tell you with your magic power.”
“No problem.”
“Draw a spirit dragon on the left side, and an evil energy on your right…”
Under the elder’s guidance, the drawing section officially began.
However, being considered as the “giveaway section”, the drawing section was not challenging.
The things the elder mentioned were all illustrated in the “Continental
Encyclopedia Pictorial” , which was much easier than the previous section.
Su Yu breezed through the section by drawing five pictures, thus clearing this stage of the exam.
Out of the remaining 15 questions, he only needed to answer 7 correctly to pass the senior scholar exam!
“Young man, you’re doing a great job. Could you tell me who your teacher is?” the elder looked at Su Yu with approval.
“Sorry, but I learned all this knowledge from books. I don’t have a teacher.” Su Yu laughed.
However, the elder didn’t believe him and said, “If you don’t wish to tell, I won’t insist.”
With a wave of his hand, he took out a staff emitting dazzling light from his space ring: “Let’s continue with the remaining part of the exam. I hope you will pass smoothly.”
“Yes.” Su Yu nodded, focusing on the following questions.
Among the remaining 15 questions, seven were Magical Image analysis questions.
For these seven questions, the elder would provide seven scenes. Su Yu was to determine the era and significant event each scene represented.
The elder swung his wand, and with a surge of magic power, a projection-like magical image appeared like a projector casting on the snow-white wall.
Kill!
An earth-shattering cry of “Kill” came from the magical image.
Aside from the battle cries, one could also hear intense impact sounds and clash of swords.
In the image, brave human warriors were fighting bloodily against enemies who were taller than them, including Orcs, trolls, Taurens…
Seeing the scene, Su Yu responded right away, “This is the third Humans and Beasts’ Great War. The venue should be the Jersey Plains.”
The elder didn’t switch off the magical image and instead followed up, “Youth, how can you tell it was the third Humans and Beasts’ Great War, instead of the first or second one?”
Su Yu confidently replied, “It’s simple. The shoulder pads of the human in the picture are inscribed with the emblem of the Franken Clan, a family that only came into being after the second Humans and Beasts’ Great War.”
“Excellent! Your answer is flawless!’ The elder nodded approvingly.
Then with another wave of his wand, the second magical image appeared on the wall.
But this magical image was rather strange.
The scene was indescribable.
Looking at the scene, Su Yu felt as if he had returned to the nights when he secretly opened the “learning materials” from the D drive and watched them late into the night.
“Err… The man in the picture should be the emperor of the Goldfinch Empire!
After all, the lining of his clothes is made from a special silk produced by the
Pandamen Empire.”
“As for what’s happening in the scene, this is the…exotic fighting technique he was performing on his queens?”
Touching his chin, Su Yu didn’t expect His Majesty the Emperor to still have such vigor!
The elder, who initially kept a poker face, could barely keep a straight face and quickly turned off the magical image:
“Ahem. Young man, this was an accident. I don’t know which careless person recorded this and mixed it with the other videos in the library. Let’s just say you passed this question.”
With another wave of his wand, he projected the next magical image.
After seven Magical Image questions, the last 8 questions were object recognition questions.
The elder went to the temple storehouse and picked some precious minerals, herbs, and Warcraft leather for Su Yu to recognize their origins and usage.
Su Yu was very stable and answered 6 out of 8 object recognition questions correctly.
At this point, all 30 questions were answered, and the senior scholar examination was successfully concluded.
The elder sent the recorded magical images to his peers for joint review.
Finally, the top echelon of the temple unanimously determined that Su Yu had correctly answered 26 questions, thereby easily passing this “senior scholar exam”!
