"… It's unexpected. It's really unexpected."
Holding the freshly made test paper in his hand, Wang Lu, as the examiner, was beaming with joy and constantly praised. He drew on the test paper with a cinnabar pen, writing praises.
However, beside him, the faces of several elders who were marking the test paper with him were obviously livid, and their veins were bulging. What's more, they subconsciously burst out in anger and ignited the examination room, causing a group of junior cultivators to be in a hurry to put out the fire.
"It's a mess, what a scandal!"
An old examiner shook his head and sighed, feeling sorry. He turned over the thick test paper in his hand again and again, only to see the dense handwriting on the paper. Each question had an extremely detailed argument and solution, the train of thought was clear and organized, and every stroke was filled with the author's deep thoughts … Although it was just a test paper with answers, it was like a delicate work of art.
However, after holding the work of art for a long time, the old Taoist finally let out a long sigh and tore it into pieces.
Someone around him advised, "Don't be angry, Immortal Wan Juan. Your eldest disciple, Immortal Jianmu, has answered very well. Such a tricky test paper can finally get 60% of the score, which has far exceeded most of the examinees. It's not a waste of the wisdom of your Heng Shui Sect. "
The old Taoist looked defeated. "However, in the end, he lost to that Tetragon."
The person who tried to persuade him said with a wry smile, "Tetragon is the emperor of Dixian. His talent is all-around and unparalleled. Not to mention your Heng Shui Sect, even those arrogant cultivators of the Ten Thousand Arts Sect returned in failure. Their score is not as good as Jianmu … "
The old Taoist raised his head with some excitement. "But the cultivators of our Heng Shui Sect have never lost to anyone in the test paper! Whether the opponent is a human or an immortal! This is the foundation of our Heng Shui Sect! "
"Alas …" The person who tried to persuade him had nothing to say. The people of Heng Shui Sect had always been extreme on this issue. Thirty years ago, Xue Ba, the eldest disciple of Heng Shui Sect, and Daoist Priest Tianshu of Ten Thousand Arts Sect made a bet on the shore of the sea of books. In one night, the two of them read half of the books in the sea of books, and then each set a question. One asked and one answered. The two of them fought for three days and three nights. Finally, Daoist Master Xue Ba won by one question. However, when he returned to the sect, his primordial spirit was exhausted, and he vomited blood and died. Although Daoist Priest Tian Shu lost the competition, he was enlightened and broke through the limits of the Nascent Soul and Soul Formation Stage.
In the eyes of most people, the real winner of that competition was undoubtedly Daoist Priest Tianshu of the Ten Thousand Arts Sect. However, for the Heng Shui Sect, Daoist Master Xue Ba was a model worthy of great admiration, because he had the Heng Shui spirit — he would never lose to anyone when it came to questions! He was willing to pay any price for it!
Now, although Daoist Master Jianmu had defeated the talents of the major sects in the Wanxian League, he was completely defeated by Tetragon … How could the people of Heng Shui Sect bear the defeat in the examination!?
Old Daoist Wan Juan gritted his teeth. "This matter … is not over. When I go back, I will let all the disciples in the sect do a closed-door training. If we don't thoroughly understand this set of questions and defeat Tetragon, we will never come out!"
The people next to him were shocked. "Daoist Master, you must calm down! This matter must not be reckless. It's incredible that Tetragon can do this set of questions with more than ninety percent correct rate. And Daoist Master Jianmu has been training for a full six months, and he is the best among many contestants. His correct rate is also sixty percent. During this period, the gap can't be made up by closed-door training alone! "
Old Daoist Wan Juan's eyes were firm. "There is no difficulty in the world that cannot be overcome by hard work! Any difficult problem must bow down to the sea of questions tactic! The reason why Jianmu can't defeat Tetragon is that he hasn't done enough questions. When I go back, I will send him to the sea of questions boat to travel for ten years. I don't believe that he can't beat Tetragon! "
"… After ten years, the Grand Competition would have been over, okay?"
Old Daoist Wan Juan still insisted, "But Tetragon must still be alive! He is Dixian, with a long lifespan, so he won't die so easily. At that time, I will let Jianmu come and take revenge! "
"… Very well, whatever you want."
For such a strange idea of a strange sect, people wanted to persuade it, but they couldn't.
However, from another point of view, to be able to make such an extreme and strange sect helpless … Tetragon's strength had indeed reached an incredible level.
Even in such an unorthodox project as the conduct test, she had an overwhelming advantage over the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals.
This kind of test was personally set, organized, and graded by Daoist Master Wang Lu.
As for the test, this strange form of test had gradually become popular in Nine Regions in the past hundred years. In the hands of Wang Lu, it had been greatly improved, which could effectively test the examinee's intelligence level and ability to handle affairs. However, in order to cope with the Grand Competition, Wang Lu increased the difficulty of the test thousands of times, which was close to unimaginable.
In order to show fairness, before the start of the Grand Competition, Wang Lu, through the planning book, handed over the questions and examples of the conduct test to the ancient Earth Immortals … However, at the same time, he also handed over a large number of teaching books to the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals for more targeted special training.
As for the process of setting the questions and grading the papers, naturally, it would not be faked, because in theory, it was unnecessary. The Wanxian League had the upper hand, so they should not lose … Unfortunately, the facts were in front of them.
Even Daoist Master Jianmu of Heng Shui Sect had lost, who else could win? Perhaps Wang Lu could do it, but the questions were set by him, and he had to grade the papers. How could he be allowed to take the test?
"Well, everyone, don't be depressed. Yesterday, we lost three times in a row, so what's the point of losing the first match today?"
Just when everyone was in doubt, Wang Lu clapped his hands and said something that was not comforting at all.
After that, he left his desk, walked into the arena, and spoke to the crowd as the host.
"Next, prepare for the next match. Led by the chief maid of the Sixteen-Night Villa, who is the best at housekeeping service in the Wanxian League, a total of thirty-seven people will participate in a dishwashing competition with Tetragon, the leader of the Dixian League. "
With that, Wang Lu spread out his arms. Suddenly, there was a clanging sound, and a mountain of various bowls appeared in the middle of the arena.
In the blink of an eye, a suffocating stench filled the entire venue. In the cleaning team, several young girls who seemed to be in their prime shook slightly, and their expressions changed.
"There are a total of three million bowls here … As you can see, they have been stained with all kinds of filth, and the stench is unbearable. Your task is to clean these bowls within a limited time. The person who cleans the most bowls wins. Gentle reminder, these bowls are made of different materials, and the pollutants are also different. You need to adapt to the local conditions to clean the filth. In addition, there are a few bowls with hidden filth. If you don't find them and treat them as clean bowls and put them together with other washed bowls, it is likely to cause large-scale pollution, and all previous efforts will be wasted. So, it's time to test your housekeeping skills. Let's wait and see who can clean these bowls most accurately, carefully, and quickly! "
Wang Lu's hosting speech was concise and to the point, and he flashed away after saying that. A group of maids and maids were left behind, rubbing their hands and looking at the mountain of bowls.
As for Tetragon, he looked at Wang Lu's back with great interest. "Dishwashing competition? You actually dare to let me, the head of the Dixian, do such a lowly thing … Are you really bold, or have you already seen something? "
Just as Tetragon was muttering to himself, the chief maid of the Sixteen-Night Villa had already taken the lead and rushed to the mountain of bowls. In two steps, she had put on a full set of equipment — a mask, a scarf, gloves, and a white apron. She waved her hand, completely disregarding the stench and filth, and picked up a porcelain bowl from the mountain of bowls. With a glance, she could clearly see the filth in it.
Then, a stream of clear spring water gushed out from her palm, swirled in the bowl, and dissolved the filth in it. With another turn of her hand, the white bowl was placed on a small table.
Several female cultivators looked at it with envy and admiration. The bowl just now, as well as the filth in the bowl, were not simple. The bowl was made of white jade lotus porcelain, and the bowl was like a lotus flower, and ordinary oil stains could not be stained. To be able to leave dirt in the bowl, it had to be a special item. According to their visual observation, the black fog glue residue in the bowl was extremely sticky and insoluble in ordinary liquids, making it very difficult to clean up … To exaggerate, without a cultivation base of Xudan or above, there was no way to clean the black fog glue.
However, the disciples of the Sixteen-Night Villa only used a stream of clear spring water to clean it. The clear spring water was obviously not an ordinary product. It should be a special detergent produced by the Sect, and its effect was really extraordinary. And only the Sixteen-Night Villa, which focused on housekeeping services, would have this special product …
However, those who were sent to participate in the competition were all outstanding in the field of housekeeping. Dozens of other female disciples showed their magical abilities, picking up the dirty bowls from the mountain of bowls and quickly cleaning them up. Their movements were extremely fast, and in the eyes of ordinary people, they could only see afterimages … Not long after, a clean mountain of bowls was piled up around these disciples.
During this period, Tetragon never made a move. He just watched the efforts of others as a bystander, as if he had no interest in participating at all.
The time given by Wang Lu was not long, only half an hour in total. Based on the number of dirty bowls and the difficulty of cleaning them, if most people did not make any mistakes, they could clean thousands of bowls. For example, the elites of the Sixteen-Night Villa could clean more than 20,000 bowls … Of course, for the mountain of three million bowls, it was still a drop in the bucket.
So, to take the trouble to prepare so many dirty bowls, did Wang Lu deliberately leave some extra, or …
At this moment, Tetragon finally moved.
She only made two movements.
The first movement was to stretch out her right hand and raise it slightly.
Thus, the entire mountain of bowls was lifted up by her.
The second movement was to separate her left and right hands, and then suddenly struggle!
As a result, the entire mountain of bowls buzzed and trembled, and countless fine dirt swarmed out from every corner of the mountain of bowls. They were stripped from the bowls by an invisible force, gathered, and then quickly lifted into the sky. In an instant, there was an extra dark cloud in the sky. But at this time, a stream of fire flew from the horizon, instantly igniting the entire cloud and dyeing the sky blood red.
Shrouded in blood, the entire mountain of bowls fell down under the effect of gravity.
Bang!
There was a muffled sound. The mountain of bowls fell to the ground, shaking the ground slightly. However, this was far less than the shock in the hearts of the people who watched the whole process.
What happened just now?
While everyone was in turmoil, Tetragon did not wait for anyone.
"Well, I'm done washing. Can this farce end now?"
With that, Tetragon turned his eyes to the top of the arena.
Wang Lu had been waiting there for a long time.
"Haha, you are indeed the omniscient and omnipotent head of the Dixian. Your Majesty's skill is invincible and eye-opening. But today's competition schedule is tight, so I won't waste any more time. Next, the circus performance, please! "
