Gu Qingyan wrote furiously, completely unaffected by the noise from the outside world.
Regardless of whether his fame was good or bad, Sun Mo was famous. At the very least, two-thirds of the examinees knew that there was a 'Dog in Front of Doors'.
But to Gu Qingyan, so what?
(No matter how famous you are, can you be more famous than me?)
Gu Qingyan's target was those genius seniors in the school. In fact, he didn't even treat Sun Mo as a competitor for a second.
Because Sun Mo wasn't worthy.
"Full marks! I want to get full marks! "
Gu Qingyan was charging forward, challenging himself!
Dang! Dang! Dang!
When the melodious sound of the bell rang out, Gu Qingyan put down his brush. After that, he looked at the clean and tidy paper and revealed a surprised smile.
(I've actually finished answering all the questions?
Seems like my potential hasn't been fully excavated yet!)
"Put down your brush and paper and leave the lecture theater. You are not allowed to speak or stay here!"
Tang Nian warned.
Some examinees had uncomfortable looks on their faces like they were constipated. (Sigh, how good would it be if we were given another half an hour?) There were also some who looked as if they were relieved of a heavy burden. This torment was finally over.
"Next time, I will hand in my papers in advance and get full marks!"
Gu Qingyan flung his sleeves and smoothed out the creases on his clothes. He then calmly left the lecture theater. Everywhere he passed, the examinees would automatically open up a path for him.
When Tang Nian's gaze met with Gu Qingyan's, he couldn't help but reveal a smile. This was the smile of seeing an outstanding student.
There was praise! There was encouragement!
When the examinees saw this scene, they felt extremely envious. It was because ordinary examinees wouldn't be able to find a chance to chat with great teachers even if they wanted to. But for someone like Gu Qingyan, there was basically no need to do so. Although great teachers wouldn't lower themselves to take the initiative to chat, as long as Gu Qingyan spoke, no great teacher would reject him.
...
The various offices in the office building had been temporarily converted into grading rooms. Room 309 was in charge of grading spirit rune exam papers. All the great teachers grading the papers were proficient in this subject. It was guaranteed that there wouldn't be any mistakes.
"How many examinees is the Saint Gate planning to eliminate this year?"
An old great teacher sighed. His philosophy was to educate without discrimination, prioritizing encouragement. Hence, he didn't like such a strict examination.
"I feel that this is the right way. in the past, there were too many newbies who obtained the qualifications to become great teachers..."
Su Tai's lips twitched.
The fewer master teachers there were, the more precious they would appear to be!
"Everyone, please hurry up. The results will be released tomorrow!"
Tang Nian urged.
For the Saint Gate's test, one could continue after they passed. If they were eliminated, they could return home. Hence, the results had to be out tomorrow. If not, it would affect the test in the afternoon.
Because the grading process was too mechanical, it was very boring. However, after the great teachers cast Encyclopedic Knowledge, their mental states would always be at their best. Hence, they didn't need to worry about making mistakes.
"There are already sixteen of them, and all of them have been eliminated. Tsk, with such strength, they dare to participate in the master teacher examination?"
Su Tai threw a test paper with a score of 40. His face was filled with disdain. Were all the newbies nowadays so ignorant?
"Actually, with the difficulty of last year's written test, I should be able to pass half of it!"
Tang Nian spoke a few words of fairness.
"Sigh!"
That old great teacher sighed. (This is fate. If you can't make it in time for a good era, you can only blame yourself for being unlucky.)
"Did any of you grade Gu Qingyan's test papers?"
Firstly, Su Tai had seen too many trashy test papers and wanted to see a test paper with high marks to wash his eyes. Secondly, he wanted to see how strong the top graduate of the Skyraise Academy was.
Everyone shook their heads. After another hour, Su Tai suddenly called out.
"I have a premonition that this is Gu Qingyan's test paper!"
Su Tai was very excited because after grading six pages of test papers, he didn't make a single mistake. Also, his handwriting was beautiful and had the demeanor of a famous teacher.
"Let me take a look!"
"Let me admire it as well!"
"Don't squeeze!"
The examiners all put down the test papers in their hands and squeezed over in high spirits, surrounding Su Tai.
That old great teacher wanted to go over as well, but after glancing at the test papers in his hands, he gave up. His test paper might be Gu Qingyan's.
"Teacher Su, why don't I grade it for you?"
A great teacher asked in a tone that was half-teasing and half-serious.
"Hehe!"
Su Tai didn't reply, but he felt disdain in his heart. (What a joke. I'm not a retard. How can I give up such a chance to you?)
Grading the test papers of such a famous genius was an opportunity in itself.
Honestly speaking, Su Tai was very confident, but he also didn't feel that his potential could surpass Gu Qingyan. Regardless of whether Gu Qingyan could become the headmaster of the Skyraise Academy in the future, Gu Qingyan would definitely be more impressive than him. Hence, he mustn't miss out on this relationship.
"Quickly grade the papers!"
Someone urged.
Su Tai had long since memorized the answers. Hence, he read ten lines with a single glance and gave the result.
"Another page, all correct!"
"The eighth page, all correct again!"
"The ninth page, all correct again!"
Su Tai was joyful. "Sorry, everyone. The first full marks exam paper for this year's spirit rune written test is going to appear in my hands."
The tenth page was a discussion question.
Usually speaking, it was very difficult to get full marks for such questions. However, the main point of this test paper was correct. It was also very suitable to be used as an example.
"Tell me, how can we not give full marks for such a beautiful answer?"
Su Tai clicked his tongue in wonder.
Everyone passed the test papers around, nodding incessantly with admiration in their eyes. There was nothing to nitpick about. However, when the test papers were in the hands of a middle-aged great teacher, he frowned.
"However, I keep feeling that something is missing from the last major question."
After the middle-aged great teacher spoke, before anyone could reply, Su Tai called out.
"What's missing?"
Su Tai immediately argued. "Gu Qingyan has already predicted the development and usage of spirit runes. Isn't that enough?"
The last major question didn't have a standard answer. The question required the examinee to elaborate on the future of the study of spirit runes as well as its influence on the world.
"Teacher Tang, please evaluate it!"
After Su Tai received the test papers, he passed them to Tang Nian.
"Hehe!"
Although the middle-aged great teacher was unhappy with Su Tai's attitude, he knew that he had misspoken. This test paper was basically confirmed to be Gu Qingyan's. He said that Gu Qingyan's test papers weren't perfect enough and that something was missing. If news of this were to spread out, it might bring about unnecessary trouble.
Gu Qingyan definitely wouldn't be petty enough to be angry over such a matter. However, who knew what the other teachers and students of the Skyraise Academy would think?
"Teacher Bai, do you feel that something is missing?"
After Tang Nian finished reading, he also felt that something was wrong. However, he couldn't say for sure.
"I don't know. I only feel that given Gu Qingyan's fame, he should have answered better!"
The middle-aged great teacher spoke honestly.
"Che!"
Su Tai's lips twitched. (I didn't expect that Teacher Bai, despite having such thick brows and big eyes, is actually a bootlicker.)
"Alright, forget it. Hurry up and grade the test papers!"
Tang Nian urged.
After everyone saw a test paper that scored full marks, they all felt as though they had drunk iced Coke during the hottest days of summer. They felt so comfortable that their hearts felt cold.
"Everyone, I'm sorry. I'll be accepting this year's top prize!"
Su Tai was very happy.
"Congratulations, Teacher Su!"
"You'll have good luck this year!"
"No matter what, Gu Qingyan should treat you to a meal, right?"
The great teachers joked. In the great teacher world, there was a saying that if one were to grade a test paper that scored full marks, it would bring one's good luck for a year.
"Thank you!"
Su Tai sat down reservedly and prepared to continue with his work. However, he suddenly heard that old great teacher speaking, "Excellent!"
Su Tai's brows twitched. He smiled and joked, "Teacher Zhang, are you praising me?"
Zhang Mai lifted his head and had a stunned look on his face. "Praising you?"
"Eh!"
Su Tai frowned. (How difficult is it to be able to grade a test paper that scored full marks? Are you acting dumb because you are unhappy?)
"Everyone, quickly come and take a look. I also have a test paper here. It might be Gu Qingyan's!"
Zhang Mai called out excitedly.
"Ah? Another test paper that scored full marks? "
"Is this for real?"
"Two Gu Qingyan's?"
The great teachers exchanged mutual glances. Naturally, it was impossible for there to be two Gu Qingyan's. In that case, whose test paper was this?
"Impossible!"
Su Tai doubted. "Teacher Zhang, you couldn't have seen wrongly, right? The questions this year are very difficult! "
Su Tai bragged for a long time. If this test paper wasn't Gu Qingyan's, how awkward would that be? Moreover, if it wasn't, he wouldn't be able to sell this favor.
"Teacher Su, I'll give you the pen. Why don't you grade it?"
Su Tai was also unhappy. (How can you doubt my professional knowledge?)
He didn't pay attention to what these people had said earlier because the discussion questions on the last page of this test paper were written too beautifully. This was especially so for the last major question. It would definitely cause one to think deeply and broaden one's horizons. He was so engrossed in it that he almost forgot about the noise in the surroundings.
Su Tai didn't take it, but Teacher Bai took it and rapidly browsed through it. After he finished, he couldn't help but exclaim loudly.
"Beautiful! Truly too beautiful! I dare to believe that this is Gu Qingyan's test paper! "
Teacher Bai praised.
All the great teachers immediately squeezed over and observed it carefully.
However, Tang Nian was frowning. As the examiner of Gu Qingyan's examination hall, he had seen Gu Qingyan's handwriting before. Hence, he could be sure that Su Tai's test paper was Gu Qingyan's.
"Could it be that there are two sets of full marks?"
Tang Nian was shocked. He knew that among the new students who were learning spirit runes this year, those who had some talent shouldn't be able to get full marks.
"Could it be that a dark horse has appeared?"
Tang Nian had just stood up when he heard those great teachers exclaiming.
"Written really well!"
"Excellent! Extremely excellent! "
"It's just that the handwriting is a little off!"
"Don't nitpick. We are great teachers, not calligraphers."
The great teachers were excited as if they had discovered a new world.
"Teacher Tang, quickly come and look at the last major question. Earlier, I said that I felt that something was missing. It was precisely this!"
Teacher Bai chortled loudly. "I dare to use my head to bet that this is Gu Qingyan's test paper!"
Tang Nian's curiosity was also piqued. He quickly walked over and stretched his hand out to take the test paper.
"Let me admire it!"
Tang Nian was originally smiling, but when he saw the handwriting on the test paper, his expression changed. (My heavens, why does this look so familiar?)
