While the participants were struggling with their answers, the Ground Fairies in the Emerald Cloud Forest also received the test papers sent by Qing Hong.
"These questions … are a bit tricky."
The Ground Fairies were speechless when they saw the questions.
Granny Yun skimmed through the questions and said, "Speaking of which, many of these questions were mentioned during our Dao lectures."
When the hundred Ground Fairies discussed Dao, one of the Ground Fairies would sometimes stray from the topic and discuss small tricks such as pill refinement or weapon refinement. The questions were listed one by one. The conversation between the immortals during the drinking game was also used as a question.
These questions were not difficult if one listened carefully for the past few days.
"Fortunately, I was focused on taking notes that day, so these questions are not difficult for me." Li Jingxun sat in his seat and wrote down the answers easily.
The other immortals who recorded the answers were also calm and answered the questions one by one.
However, some of the immortals who were more crude in their cultivation were stunned when they saw the dazzling list of questions.
"How … how are we supposed to answer these questions? Shouldn't we be using an elimination system in our Dao discussions, where 64, 32, and 16 people slowly fight for the top eight and then the championship? What is this? Who would discuss these things on paper during a battle? "
Many of them scratched their heads and could only watch as time passed. In the end, they could only place their hopes on the few questions at the end. For example, creating a cultivation technique for the Inner Blessed Heavenly Dao. Although difficult, it was easier to solve than those history questions.
In the Emerald Cloud Forest, Tusita Dao Master looked at a history question and murmured, "This is bad, most of my disciples can't answer it."
This was a question about the demon race, "May I ask, how many sacred grounds did the ancient demon race have?"
To the Ground Fairies, this was a very simple question. However, Tusita Dao Master was focused on pill refinement and did not tell them about the ancient past.
"How long has the demon sacred ground been destroyed? Why are you asking such a question? "
"Tch, they can't even answer such a question, what do you expect them to know!" Pure Water Sect Master replied and asked Void Dash Dao Master, "Old friend, what do you think?"
"Hmm … Hmm, that's right, that's right." The Void Pierce Stage Dao Master was in a dilemma when he saw the seven pill recipes for the Clear Heart Pill. He silently recalled the pill recipes for the Clear Heart Pill, and in the end, he could only find five: "I'm not a person who specializes in alchemy, how could I know so much?"
Seeing the five hundred questions, the Ground Fairies broke out in a cold sweat. There were many questions that even they could not answer. It wasn't that they didn't know how to do it, but that they had their own specialties. They didn't know much about some special fields. Even a knowledgeable person like the Master of Daode Buddhism was at a disadvantage when it came to some professional questions about alchemy and formations.
"Speaking of which, Qing Hong, can you do it yourself?" The master of the Taiqing Sect failed on the question of "Please judge whether the rain spell is more important than the wind or the water", so he simply questioned Qing Hong, "How many points can you get for this question?"
Qing Hong shrugged and pretended to be innocent. "I can't get full marks anyway."
Fairy Nun smiled and said, "These questions were set by me and Junior Brother. The full score is a thousand points. It's already not bad for the two of us to get nine hundred points. "
Fairy Yun Xiang smiled bitterly. She did a rough calculation. Excluding the questions that had a total of three hundred points, out of the seven hundred standard answers, she could at most get five hundred points.
"Recite at least eight hundred words of the Ten Directions Heaven Origin Jade Thunder Supreme Mystery Book? Although my husband came from the Supreme Firmament Palace, he wouldn't casually come into contact with this kind of top-notch immortal path lightning technique. "
The Ten Directions Heaven Origin Jade Thunder Supreme Mystery Book was a common technique created by the various immortal path seniors for the world's itinerant cultivators. But apart from cultivators who wanted to cultivate the lightning path, no one else would specifically study this kind of content.
The immortals shook their heads and smiled bitterly. "Even we can't answer it. It's already not bad for those Human Immortals to get five hundred points."
Qing Hong, "Can't there be a few bookworms? Type out all the questions? "
The Master of Daode Buddhism, "That girl Li Jingxun can probably get five or six hundred points out of the seven hundred standard questions, but the later questions are not so easy. At most, she can get a little over nine hundred points."
This result was enough to make the immortals raise their eyebrows.
Soon, three days of the exam had passed. Qing Hong sent someone to collect the exam papers.
"Alright, dismissed for now. Take your time to rest. I'll show the exam papers to everyone and let them rate them."
Qing Hong sealed all the exam papers and gave them to Kuang Qu to bring back to Emerald Cloud Forest. He wanted to leave as well, but Jing Xuan, Li Jingxun, and the others immediately stopped him.
Jing Xuan complained, "Junior Martial Brother, you didn't come up with this exam method that's similar to the mortal imperial examinations, right?"
"What's wrong? Can't I? " Qing Hong blinked. "I think this kind of exam is necessary to test everyone's understanding of basic knowledge. Even if we have to stay for three days and three nights like the mortal imperial examinations, our bodies as immortals are nothing. "
Zhou Yaner came over and tugged on Qing Hong's sleeve. "Then Senior Martial Brother should have a standard answer? Since it's already over, why don't you compare your answers and let us estimate your score? "
Hearing Zhou Yaner's words, Qing Hong couldn't help but recall the atmosphere of the exams on Earth a long time ago. He took out a simple exam paper. "Here are the answers to some of the questions. As for the later questions, I'll have to slowly evaluate and grade them later."
After sending out the answers to the 700 questions and letting Li Jingxun and the others check them, Qing Hong returned to Emerald Cloud Forest.
The exam papers were sealed by Qing Hong himself, so the other Ground Fairies couldn't tell who was who and could only grade each question according to the standard answer.
But from the handwriting of the disciples, some teachers could guess who the exam papers belonged to.
"This exam paper's handwriting is clear and tidy, it should be Li Jingxun's? It looks like she can get 635 points. As long as the later scores are higher, I'm sure she can get more than 900 points. "
"Huh?" Ge Xianweng was grading the exam papers. When he saw that the answer to one question was different from the standard answer, he stopped writing and started to think about it. "Interesting, I didn't expect to meet such an interesting person among the juniors."
"What's wrong?" Qing Hong stretched his head to take a look. It was the question of the Clear Heart Pill's seven recipes.
"He wrote down seven recipes, but two of the recipes he gave are different from the others. It must be the result of his own research? This person is very talented in the Dao of alchemy. "Ge Xianweng said and showed it to the Tushita Daoist Master.
After reading it, the Daoist Master felt like appreciating talent. "If he's not from a big sect, you can ask if he can come to our Tushita Daoist Master."
Patriarch Crimson Heaven was too embarrassed to come to Ge Xianweng's side, so he glanced at him from afar and continued to grade.
In the end, the immortals spent a day grading the exam papers and the standard answers.
The Lord of Daode Buddhism skimmed through the immortals' answers and said with a frown, "Although this kind of exam is a little rigid, it has many benefits. Look, some of the disciples can even draw the most basic talisman incorrectly. It's obvious that we didn't teach them well. I think this kind of exam can be used as a reference. For example, an exam in the sect every year? "
Qing Hong's interest surged and he immediately agreed, "That's a good idea. Let's call it the end-of-year exam. It'll test the immortal arts the disciples have learned in the past year and see if they understand the essence. Hmm … we can also separate subjects. For example, talisman inscription, pill refinement, artifact refinement, formation setting, and so on. Then we can set up compulsory and elective subjects. Things like Daoist techniques, explanation of cultivation methods, and Mystic Gate history can be considered compulsory. Then we can force them to choose one from pill refinement, artifact refinement, talisman formation, and so on. Oh right, there's also the martial exam. Let the disciples practice sword arts or other self-defense techniques. If they don't pass a certain subject, they won't be allowed to leave the mountain to travel. "
Qing Hong went on and on about the benefits of the exam. Although no one followed his suggestions, the content of the exam appeared more or less in the various sects. For example, the history of their own sect. You can't be so immersed in cultivation that you don't even know the name of your patriarch, right?
Over time, there was a class called Mystic Gate History. Every once in a while, an immortal would talk about the struggles of the seniors of the Immortal Dao to inspire the younger generation.
