19: Chapter 19 Written Test

At this moment, Lin Fan heard a few people nearby whispering.

"Did you see that girl in front?"

"I saw her. She's so young, is she an examinee or a staff member?"

"An examinee. Do you know who she is?"

"Who?"

"Ye Qing, the daughter of the president of the Dongyun City Breeder Association."

"Holy crap, the president's daughter?"

"Right. I heard she's eighteen this year, a high school senior, with seven Armor Spirit points. She's a recognized Genius Breeder."

"Taking the Elementary exam at eighteen? That's too Heaven-Defying. I didn't dare to come and take it until I was twenty-six."

"She has the talent and the resources. What can you do?"

Lin Fan pricked up his ears to listen, clicking his tongue inwardly.

Seven Armor Spirit points?

Isn't that a Genius among geniuses?

On the day of the Awakening, the teacher mentioned that Ye Wushuang had eight Armor Spirit points and was the top student in the entire school.

This Ye Qing, with seven Armor Spirit points, although slightly inferior, is still an existence looked up to by countless people.

"And you know what..."

The person lowered his voice.

"Although it's her first time taking the exam, it's said she's been learning from her father for years. Both her theory and practice are very solid. She is definitely going to be one of those who pass this year."

"That's for sure. If the president's daughter couldn't pass, it would be a joke."

Lin Fan listened, the corners of his mouth lifting slightly.

A Genius with seven Armor Spirit points, the president's daughter, learning since childhood...

Sounds pretty impressive.

But as for the exam, everyone relies on their own abilities.

He withdrew his gaze and continued to wait in line.

When it was his turn, the staff member verified his ID and registration information, then looked up at him.

"Lin Fan, sixteen years old, Dongyun No. 1 High School?"

Lin Fan nodded.

The staff member smiled indifferently and handed him an admission ticket.

"Young man, you have great courage. Good luck."

Lin Fan took the admission ticket and walked into the exam hall.

The exam hall was a large auditorium that could hold two hundred people, filled with desks.

The examinees entered one after another, and Lin Fan found a seat near the back.

He scanned his surroundings and roughly counted, there were about a hundred people.

Ye Qing happened to be sitting not far from him.

When Lin Fan sat down, the legs of his chair scraped against the floor with a soft sound.

Ye Qing subconsciously turned her head and glanced at him.

Her gaze lingered on his face for less than a second, then moved down, landing on the admission ticket in his hand.

"Lin Fan, sixteen years old, Dongyun No. 1 High School."

She withdrew her gaze, the corners of her mouth twitching slightly.

That expression, Lin Fan was all too familiar with it.

It was an undisguised look of contempt.

It was just that Ye Qing restrained it well; the disdain was hidden in her eyes, while her face remained as cold and aloof as before.

Lin Fan ignored her, placed his admission ticket on the desk, and waited for the exam to start.

Ye Qing didn't look at him again either; she turned her head away and lowered her head to flip through the notes she had brought.

But Lin Fan had sharp ears and heard her give a light "snort."

The corners of his mouth lifted slightly, and he said nothing.

Disdain?

Fine, you keep being disdainful.

After the exam is over, we'll see who ends up being the one to be disdained.

A few minutes later, an old man with gray hair walked onto the podium and tapped the microphone.

"Quiet, the exam will begin shortly."

The whole room went quiet.

The old man scanned the room and spoke slowly.

"Today is the Elementary Breeder qualification exam. The exam is divided into two sessions—a written theory test in the morning and a practical examination in the afternoon."

"The written theory test consists of one hundred multiple-choice questions, and sixty points are required to pass. The practical examination involves identifying an Armor Beast on the spot and writing a cultivation plan; this is also sixty points to pass."

"Pass both, and you get the certificate. Fail one, and you'll have to come back next year."

He paused and swept his gaze over the entire room.

"I'll offer a warning: during the practical examination, don't think about guessing. You are facing a living Armor Beast. Whether the plan you write is correct or not, the examiner will be able to tell at a glance."

"Last year, half the people failed exactly because of the practical examination."

There was some whispering among the crowd.

The old man tapped the microphone: "Alright, distribute the papers."

The staff began to hand out the test papers.

Lin Fan took the paper and scanned it.

One hundred multiple-choice questions, covering Armor Beast classification, evolution Materials, attribute restraint, common diseases...

The corners of his mouth lifted slightly.

With the "Eye of Insight" that came with the ten thousand armor beast record, he could see the answers at a glance.

He worked his way through, getting smoother as he went.

There were some questions he really didn't know the answer to.

But as long as his left eye scanned the keywords in the question, the relevant information would float into his mind.

【Conventional evolution Materials for Fire-type Armor Beasts: Fire Crystals, Flame Sun Grass, Red Orchid Flower...】

【Evolution path of the Green-Scaled Snake: 1. Green-Scaled Python (Mystic Spirit Intermediate) 2. Hidden path: Shadow Wood Spirit Snake (Mystic Spirit Advanced)...】

This exam is in the bag.

An hour later, he finished all the questions.

He checked them over once more, made sure there were no omissions, put down his pen, and leaned back in his chair.

Not far away, Ye Qing had also finished a long time ago.

She didn't scratch her head like the others; instead, she sat quietly, looking straight ahead, occasionally using her pen to mark something on the paper.

That composure was truly the look of someone who had seen the world.

Lin Fan withdrew his gaze and waited to turn in his paper.

Another half hour passed, and the old man tapped the microphone.

"Time is up, put down your pens and turn in your papers."

The staff collected the papers, and the old man scanned the room.

"The practical examination starts promptly at two o'clock in the afternoon. Don't wander off during lunch, eat nearby, and don't be late."

After saying that, he turned and left.

The exam hall suddenly became lively.

Some people were sighing, some were excitedly discussing the answers, and some were just packing up their things and walking out.

Lin Fan stood up and was just about to leave when he suddenly heard someone speaking nearby.

"Young Miss Ye, how did you do on the exam?"

Lin Fan turned his head to look; a man in his thirties was leaning toward Ye Qing, his face full of smiles.

Ye Qing didn't even lift her head and said indifferently: "It was fine."

"That's for sure. With Young Miss Ye's level, this exam shouldn't be a piece of cake for you?"

Ye Qing didn't respond, packed up her things, stood up, and walked out.

When she passed by Lin Fan, her footsteps paused.

Then, she glanced at the admission ticket on Lin Fan's desk.

"Lin Fan, sixteen years old, Dongyun No. 1 High School."

She withdrew her gaze, her tone indifferent.

"Taking the Breeder exam at such a young age, do you have connections in the family?"

Lin Fan looked up at her and smiled.

"No connections, just here to give it a try."

The corners of Ye Qing's mouth lifted slightly, and that smile carried an indescribable meaning.

"Try? The registration fee is five hundred, and it's non-refundable if you fail. Does your family have too much money to spend?"

Lin Fan raised an eyebrow: "How do you know I'll definitely fail?"

Ye Qing was stunned for a moment, then laughed.

This time, the laugh was more obvious.

"Alright, then good luck."

After she finished speaking, she walked away without looking back.

Lin Fan watched her back and shrugged.

Fail?

You'll find out in a little while.

He walked out of the exam hall, found a small restaurant nearby, and ate a little something.

After eating, he returned to the Association building and waited in the third-floor hallway.

At 1:50, the doors to the exam hall opened.

The examinees entered one after another.

This time, it wasn't in the auditorium, but they were led to the practical examination area on the other side.
