Heavenly Horse’s exam is unpredictable; you’ll never know what question will pop up next, completely eliminating any methods of cheating.
Many people are still stuck on the first question after thirty minutes.
The examiners store all solution data into the central control to score and analyze each candidate’s thought process.
The second person to complete the Magic Cube was Tuoba Wu; he took one hour and five minutes. The third was Mo Bai Ning, who took one hour and seven minutes. Lin Duoduo was seventh.
Six hours later, everyone stood in the hall waiting for the announcement of the exam results.
Those who completed it would stay for a break, waiting for the third test, while those who didn’t complete it had to leave and try again next year.
The results were announced: Tianmiao ranked first, using the shortest time.
The second place went to number 88, Tuoba Wu.
The red-haired boy, with a gloomy face, turned his head to look at Tianmiao and snorted, "I was careless this time, in the next exam you won’t be ahead of me."
"Your face is all swollen, and you’re still pretending. Check the time difference, okay? There’s such a big gap between first and second place." Lin Duoduo sneered mockingly.
"Hmph, I was just careless this time. Just wait, the next round I’ll..." Tuoba Wu continued stubbornly.
"Shut up, second place doesn’t have the right to speak." Lin Duoduo interrupted with a cold laugh.
Tuoba Wu was stunned for a moment and thought, "Why does that sound familiar?"
Lin Duoduo: ...Okay, confirmed, this person is an idiot. I shouldn’t argue with an idiot, it’s really lowering my standards!
Tianmiao smiled quietly on the side.
These two... they’re deeply intertwined, there’s no rush, take it slow.
After a day’s rest.
The third round of the exam was finally about to begin.
The examiner, wearing a black jumpsuit, looked grave. "You all signed the waiver during registration, and I’ll explain it again now: the third round is life-threatening. You can still withdraw now. Facing monsters naturally involves life threats. But true Demon Exorcists fear none of this. Now, you have ten seconds to choose. Step forward if you wish to continue, and one step back if you choose to withdraw."
After these words, no one withdrew.
Every Demon Exorcist actually faces life threats when exorcising demons; if you can’t see through this, you have no right to become a Demon Exorcist.
"Very well. Then, pass through this door and proceed to your exam." The chief examiner nodded with satisfaction, stepped aside revealing a door behind him, and waved his large hand, gesturing the candidates to enter.
The candidates filed in, still passing through a corridor, and then appeared before everyone, an island, on the island, stood a massive tower.
"That is our tower that confines the monsters. It has forty-nine levels; the higher you go, the stronger the monsters. Destroying monsters will determine your score based on their level. But that’s not the absolute scoring standard. Each person’s combat skill and style will also be accounted for in the total score. While all of you give your best, please also act within your means. We really don’t want to collect too many bodies. If you can’t cope, you can crush your number plate to request help. Once you seek help, you’ll immediately lose qualification for the exam." The chief examiner’s voice resounded in everyone’s ear, clear and crisp, with encouragement as well as a warning.
