Sun Mo didn't notice Bai Shuang's gaze. He had been taking deep breaths and adjusting his state.
Other than the study of spirit runes, Sun Mo's mastery of the art of spiritual beast control was also at the grandmaster-grade. However, the Saint Gate would conduct separate examinations. Also, from the looks of it, the Saint Gate wanted to separate this subject completely.
There were still five examiners, and in order to prevent the examinees from cheating, the specializations that these five examiners mastered did not overlap.
This was because the higher the star level of the test, the stronger the examinees were. Sometimes, they didn't cheat to get high marks, but purely to show off their skills.
One had to know that cheating under the nose of an examiner was something that could be bragged about for a long time.
The art of spiritual control had always been a disaster area for cheating. This was because this subject was too mysterious, and there were too many unknown things. For example, an examinee could communicate with a spiritual beast outside the examination venue through long-distance telepathy. The examinee could then get the spiritual beast to find the answer or seek help from a great teacher before sending the correct answer back.
This was the most common method of cheating in the spiritual control exam.
The main examiner was actually Tong Yiming. This caused Sun Mo to feel a little surprised. From his point of view, this tall and imposing great teacher didn't seem like someone who dabbled in the art of spiritual control.
Generally speaking, most spiritualists were mysterious and exuded a strange aura. They were fellows who gave off a feeling that strangers were unapproachable.
Dang! Dang! Dang!
The bell rang.
In the examination hall of three hundred people, there were no empty seats. Regardless of whether it was the old cabbages or the young radishes, all of them were excited and stared at Tong Yiming, waiting for the papers to be handed out.
Tong Yiming sat behind the podium, unperturbed.
Three minutes passed.
"What the hell? Why didn't you give out the test papers? "
"It's been a few minutes, right?"
"Who's to pay for this delay?"
The examinees naturally didn't dare to make a ruckus, but no one cared about their inner thoughts. Hence, some of them were worried, some of them were cursing, and some of them had a bad premonition.
It would not be easy to pass the test this time.
Bai Shuang was indeed a genius in the study of psychics. Ten seconds after the bell rang, she suddenly frowned and subconsciously looked to the right side of the classroom.
A weak wave of mental energy rippled across the entire exam hall, like the ripples caused by a breeze blowing across the surface of a lake.
"Interesting!"
Bai Shuang chuckled, revealing a trace of excitement. So this was the assessment method? After that, she threw a glance at Sun Mo. When she saw that he was still indifferent, her lips curled and she couldn't help but reveal a hint of disdain.
"Sorry, I'll start first."
Bai Shuang murmured. At the same time, she bit her finger and used her blood to draw a strange pattern on the table. In an instant, the spiritual fluctuation she received became stronger.
Then, Bai Shuang raised his hand.
Tong Yiming turned his gaze over.
"I need three blank sheets of paper!"
Bai Shuang spoke.
"Give it to her!"
Tong Yiming spoke. For such matters, the youngest examiner would naturally be the one to run the errands.
"Here!"
The young examiner with pimples on his face was a 2-star genius. When he looked at Bai Shuang now, he couldn't help but sigh in admiration. The top graduate of the Skyraise Academy was truly impressive.
Bai Shuang took the white paper and spread it on the desk. Without a moment's pause, she began answering the questions.
"What do you mean?"
The examinees were dumbfounded. There was no test paper, so what were you going to answer?
The group of examinees closest to Bai Shuang even left their seats and looked in her direction.
"Silence!"
Tong Yiming roared, "Also, the few of you, if you continue to look around recklessly, your qualifications for the examination will be revoked!"
Swoosh!
The examinees in this group hurriedly sat down. However, there was a hint of despair on their faces because they really didn't know what was going on.
Sun Mo was also dumbfounded. The grandmaster-grade spiritual beast control art had given him a solid foundation, but the Saint Gate's examination placed more emphasis on spirituality.
It was like a student who was swollen with questions. He had done thousands of questions, but once the questions changed, he couldn't answer them anymore.
This was what it meant to have no spirituality.
Of course, Sun Mo had spirituality. He was dumbfounded because he had received close to 20 years of examination-oriented education. Now that it was suddenly changed to a written examination that was filled with a sense of fantasy, he couldn't react for a time.
Moreover, in terms of difficulty, this was a 2-star great teacher examination. It was more difficult to begin with.
After seeing Bai Shuang's actions, Sun Mo knew that the questions must have already appeared in the examination hall. It was just that the way they appeared was too strange and the examinees couldn't see it.
"Since it's the spiritual control examination, then it must be the art of spiritual control!"
Sun Mo pulled out the chasing cloud dagger from his boots. After that, he carved a triangular and circular diagram on the table.
Its effect was like a magnifier. It could capture the soul fluctuations of the spiritual beasts in the surroundings and magnify them.
The examinees around Sun Mo subconsciously looked over.
"Don't look around!"
Tong Yiming berated again.
As the diagram took form, Sun Mo immediately sensed a wave of soul fluctuations. As expected, the message transmitted by the other party could be translated as a question.
"There's actually such a method of setting the questions?"
Sun Mo was shocked, but he also felt that it was a little fun. He had wanted to raise his hand and ask for a blank piece of paper, but out of his cautious habit, he stopped and frowned in contemplation.
Would there be a trap?
Sun Mo was once a teacher in No. 2 High School and had participated in setting the questions before. Some teachers loved to dig traps the most, increasing the difficulty for their students and watching them being tormented until they scratched their heads and cheeks.
Sun Mo acted the moment he thought of it. He continued to carve spirit communication formations on the table.
Usually speaking, different spirit communication formations would mean different types of spiritual beasts that could be communicated with.
For example, spirit communication formations were like the gates of different pavilions in a zoo. Since the pavilions were different, the animals that could be seen after entering would naturally be different as well.
Sun Mo consecutively carved nine spirit communication formations, sensing elemental lifeforms, undead lifeforms, sea lifeforms, ferocious beasts, shadow lifeforms, etc. However, it was useless.
F * * *!
Sun Mo cursed because he felt that he might have wasted his effort. Hence, he raised his hand in a depressed manner. "Examiner, give me three blank pieces of paper."
After hearing Sun Mo's words, half of the examinees turned their heads and glanced at him. However, there were still some who didn't move because they felt that Sun Mo was merely so-so.
Because at this moment, there were already over ten people asking for blank pieces of paper.
As for Bai Shuang, she was completely immersed in the joy of answering the questions and couldn't extricate herself. She loved such pure things.
As Sun Mo spoke, the examinees in the examination hall also started to feel anxious.
"Examiner, give me four blank pieces of paper!"
"Give me five!"
"I only need one!"
The voices of the examinees rang out. Some people didn't even know what the content of the test was. They simply didn't want to fall behind when others asked for blank pieces of paper.
Three minutes later, everyone received a blank piece of paper.
Tong Yiming took out his pocket watch and glanced at it. After that, he announced, "Those who have more or less than three blank pieces of paper, please leave the examination hall!"
Swish!
The examinees who asked for the wrong number of blank pieces of paper instantly turned pale. They had a bad premonition.
"You guys are eliminated!"
Tong Yiming announced with a calm expression.
A moment later, wails of anguish rang out.
"Main examiner, isn't this kind of test a little too much?"
An examinee threw away his pen and couldn't help but grumble.
"The content of the test is determined by Grandmaster Mo Nai. If you have any dissatisfaction, just tell him!"
Tong Yiming explained.
"Cough!"
When the examinees who were originally feeling unhappy heard this name, they were like ducks that had their necks grabbed by a large hand. They immediately shut their mouths.
Mo Nai was a 7-star great teacher with deep attainments in the art of spiritual control. An examinee dared to question the content of his questions?
If that examinee dared to say that their career was too long.
"Alright, quickly go out. Don't affect the others!"
Tong Yiming urged.
Mo Nai was such a person. He would try his best to simplify things and mark the papers one by one. This was the inefficient method he hated the most.
A minute later, only one-third of the examinees were left in the examination hall.
Upon seeing so many competitors being eliminated, they were completely encouraged. They answered the questions even more seriously, preparing to pass in one go.
Sun Mo put down his pen.
Something was wrong!
Usually speaking, even if examinees failed, they wouldn't be chased out of the examination hall in such a hurry. If this was to create pressure for the other examinees, that wouldn't be right either.
It was because the remaining examinees had already taken the first step. When they saw the other examinees being chased away, they would only feel agitated and feel that their chances of passing had greatly increased.
Moreover, if they were to leave, there would surely be noises in the examination hall, affecting everyone's assessment. Could it be that this was a test of the examinees' mental fortitude in a noisy environment?
That wasn't right either. The art of spiritual control didn't have much to do with mental fortitude. The main thing was still perception!
Wait a minute, perception?
Sun Mo's brows furrowed so tightly that they could clamp a crab to death.
He turned his gaze back to the table.
Usually speaking, spirit controllers would need a medium to summon their spiritual beasts. Most of the time, they would use fresh blood. This was the best medium.
Not only did fresh blood contain the spirit controller's soul information, but it could also better control the spiritual beast through the aura of the blood.
However, Sun Mo hated bleeding very much. It was too chuunibyou to bite his finger to summon his spiritual beast.
However, this time around, Sun Mo didn't have a choice.
If he wanted to conduct a higher-level spiritual control, he would need to use fresh blood or a higher-level medium. Just drawing a diagram would definitely not be enough.
Sun Mo gritted his teeth and used a dagger to cut open his index finger. After that, he focused on drawing a spiritual communication formation on an empty spot on the table.
The bored Tong Yiming's eyes suddenly brightened when he saw this scene.
Sun Mo's throat was chanting some unknown syllables. After that, the fresh blood drawn on the table started to glow with a dark-red glow.
The spiritual communication formation was activated. At the same time, a gigantic jellyfish suddenly appeared in Sun Mo's vision. Its diameter was about one meter or so.
It floated above the rostrum, and as its tentacles moved, there would be light spots spreading into the air like plankton in the ocean.
"There's really one!"
Sun Mo looked at this umbrella-shaped jellyfish and felt a little speechless. It seemed that regardless of which era his teacher was from, they all liked to dig holes for him.
Since the jellyfish had sensed it, things would be easy next. Sun Mo, who possessed the grandmaster-grade spiritual control knowledge, knew at least ten types of spiritual control secret language. Hence, communicating with the jellyfish was a piece of cake.
"Can you tell me the question now?"
Sun Mo asked.
The jellyfish didn't reply. Instead, a bulge appeared on its body. After that, with a popping sound, it peeled off and turned into a small jellyfish.
Sun Mo instantly understood. It wanted him to summon this jellyfish. After that, the remaining question would be simple. He just had to use a spiritual control secret art that was suitable for summoning sea creatures.
Three minutes later. Pak!
Sun Mo established a connection with the jellyfish. After that, it floated over unsteadily and landed on the fine paper on Sun Mo's table. The colors were distinct, and it was like an oil painting.
Sun Mo was very satisfied.
After the jellyfish's imprint, this piece of paper was no longer ordinary. It could be considered a spirit qi equipment. As long as Sun Mo was willing, he could summon the jellyfish for battle.
Of course, it would be very weak. After all, jellyfish didn't have any attacking prowess.
Hu!
Sun Mo heaved a sigh of relief. After looking around, he raised his hand.
"What's the matter?"
Without waiting for the male examiner who was closer to Sun Mo to speak, the female examiner who was patrolling the area at the back of the classroom already spoke and walked over quickly.
"Teacher Zhou, just let me do it!"
The male examiner smiled, revealing a smile that he felt was handsome.
"Lower your voice, don't disturb the examinees!"
The female examiner with the surname Zhou reminded him. After that, she walked up to Sun Mo and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?"
After that, her gaze swept past Sun Mo without leaving a trace. (Tsk, handsome guys are truly pleasing to the eyes!) If the entire place was filled with such handsome examinees, it wouldn't be considered a tough job to be an invigilator.
"At the very least, I didn't stay up late for nothing tonight!"
The female examiner mumbled in her heart.
"I'll hand in my paper!"
Sun Mo spoke.
The male examiner felt depressed after being contradicted. He opened the water bottle and gulped down a mouthful of water. In the end, when he heard that Sun Mo wanted to hand in his paper, he immediately turned his gaze over.
(This is a question set by Grandmaster Mo Nai. Are you done answering it already?)
The male examiner estimated the time. Right now, only half an hour had passed since the start of the exam.
Swoosh!
Upon hearing Sun Mo's words, the other examinees who were immersed in answering their questions also lifted their heads in astonishment.
"He's done answering it already?"
"I don't think so, right? How long has it been? "
"But that's Sun Mo. He wouldn't possibly give up on the exam, right?"
The examinees immediately started mumbling. They didn't feel that Sun Mo would give up on the exam.
"Silence!"
Tong Yiming berated.
"How long has it been? Don't you want to do another one? "
The female examiner persuaded out of goodwill.
"I've already done it!"
Sun Mo smiled. "Can I hand in my paper now?"
"Re... done?"
The examinees felt panic in their hearts. Could it be that they had missed something?
"Sure!"
The female examiner didn't have the qualifications to stop him. She could only lament in her heart. (Sigh, how are we going to endure the remaining one and a half hours?) There weren't even half as good looking as Sun Mo!
Sun Mo stood up and left the classroom, leaving behind a confident and carefree back view for everyone.
In such a situation, Bai Shuang naturally had no way to answer her questions. She frowned as she watched Sun Mo leave. After that, her expression turned unsightly.
As a genius, Bai Shuang was the type that could understand things with just a hint. Hence, she instantly understood where she had gone wrong.
Hence, Bai Shuang bit her finger and drew a spirit communication formation on the table again.
In her vision, the number of light spots increased, wandering about like fireflies in midsummer. After that, Bai Shuang saw the large jellyfish.
(I lost!)
Bai Shuang's expression was very unnatural.
(This Sun Mo really has some capabilities.)
Although she wasn't beaten up, she was still suppressed.
