Chapter 23
College Entrance Examination (2)
“Mo Xiu wins. The physical test has ended. Um… The examinees can leave now.”
When Mo Xiu walked out of the room, the six teachers were discussing.
After the exam in the morning, he still could not find Zheng Yi during lunch break, so he could only find a restaurant to eat at.
It was soon afternoon. The skill assessment in the afternoon could be said to be the most important part of the college entrance examination.
The total score was 400. This alone could show its importance.
Not only that, many universities would prioritize checking the scores of the skill assessment when they looked at the examination results.
Due to the importance of one’s score in the skill assessment, there would always be students with high scores who were not accepted by their ideal schools in the past years.
This was because both their written test and physical test scores were very high. Only the skill test was a burden.
The venue of the skill assessment was in the science and technology classroom. It was specially used for testing skills.
It was usually open, but students had to pay a fee to use the room. Furthermore, the price wasn’t something Mo Xiu could afford, so Mo Xiu had never entered the room.
Mo Xiu took the admission ticket and entered the science and technology classroom. Then, the staff led Mo Xiu into one of the rooms.
After observing the room, he realized that it was a sealed space with only one door, which was closed after entering.
Three of the walls were made of metal, while the last wall was made of glass. He could vaguely see two people sitting behind the glass.
Mo Xiu was about to take a closer look when he heard a voice.
The voice came from the loudspeaker on the roof of the room.
“Examinee, please wear the glasses and prepare for the exam.”
Mo Xiu looked around and saw a box in the corner.
When he opened the box and took a look, he found that it was more like a helmet than a pair of glasses. Mo Xiu took it out and put it on his head.
After putting it on, the helmet automatically locked and wrapped around Mo Xiu’s head.
The helmet didn’t affect his vision, and Mo Xiu could clearly see everything around him.
“Examinee, please raise your right hand. You will enter the assessment in three seconds.”
Mo Xiu followed the instructions and raised his right hand. Then, he heard the countdown.
“Three.”
“Two.”
“One.”
“The assessment begins.”
After the assessment began, the glass wall gradually disappeared and became an iron wall.
After that, two men in black appeared in the room. One of them had the word ‘friend’ written on it, while the other had the word ‘enemy’ written on it.
Mo Xiu immediately understood. One of them was his teammate, while the other was his enemy.
Without hesitation, he activated Descent of the Martial God to provide him with support.
When Mo Xiu reached the battleground between the two of them, the enemy suddenly injured his teammate with a punch and jumped back.
Mo Xiu reached out to pull his teammate up. However, when he touched his teammate, his teammate disappeared.
When he raised his head to look at the enemy, his enemy actually disappeared as well. Mo Xiu looked around but didn’t find any traces of the man in black.
Suddenly, the man in black appeared in front of Mo Xiu and punched him.
Mo Xiu immediately responded, but when he hit the man in black, it felt like he was hitting a steel plate.
No matter how Mo Xiu attacked, he could not defeat the man in black. As time passed, Mo Xiu realized that the strength of the man in black was increasing.
In the end, the black-clothed man’s strength increased to the point where Mo Xiu was unable to fight back. He threw a punch at Mo Xiu’s head.
“The assessment is over.”
Following the sound of the computer, the man in black disappeared and the glass wall appeared again.
Mo Xiu took off his helmet and put it back in the box, waiting for further instructions.
Mo Xiu roughly understood the mechanism of the skill assessment. In the beginning, when the two men in black fought, they wanted to test the candidate’s auxiliary skills. If they had an auxiliary skill, they could use it on their teammates.
After that, when his teammate was injured and fell to the ground, they were testing the healing skills of the examinees. One could treat their teammate if they had healing skills.
After that, the enemy disappeared. This was to test the detection skills of the examinees.
The final battle was to test the limits of their combat skills.
Mo Xiu did not hide his strength during the exam. Instead, he went all out to fight.
Hiding a secret was indeed very important, Mo Xiu felt that it was enough to hide God’s Eye.
If he had to hide the Descent of the Martial God, it would be too cowardly.
However, Mo Xiu was very curious if this detection system could detect God’s Eye.
After five minutes, the teacher said, “The assessment is over. Please leave.”
Mo Xiu walked out of the science and technology classroom and strolled around the field alone.
“Mo Xiu, you’re here!”
Mo Xiu saw that it was Mu Qingyi and walked over with a smile.
“Yes, yes. I just finished the exam and I’m waiting for the results. How did you do?”
Mu Qingyi said, “Not bad. What about you? There shouldn’t be any problems, right?”
“I didn’t face any problems. Everything is going smoothly. By the way, which school are you going to?”
Mu Qingyi said hesitantly, “Actually… I’m going to the Federal Academy.”
Mo Xiu was a little surprised. The three major colleges in the Alliance were Yanjing University, the Federal Academy, and the Academy of Faith.
These three schools corresponded to the three pre-war powers.
Although humans belonged to the Alliance now, they would not be able to get into the Federal Academy by taking the college entrance examination in Shun City.
Firstly, it was because of the distance. Furthermore, the living habits of both regions were somewhat different.
“Was it arranged by your family?”
Mu Qingyi had long said that everything was arranged by her parents, and she had no right to make any decisions.
Mu Qingyi nodded lightly and said, “Yes, we might not meet again in the future.”
“You can’t decide everything for yourself, but I can decide mine. I’ll look for you in the future.”
“Really?”
“Really.”
…
An hour later, the results were announced. Everyone’s results were posted on the field’s noticeboard and sent to their phones.
When Mo Xiu received the message, he immediately went home. This was because his score was 1,000.
He had obtained full marks. As far as Mo Xiu knew, in all these years of college entrance examinations, less than ten people had obtained full marks.
If he stayed at school, he might be pestered by the reporters, so he could only go home.
“First place: Mo Xiu. Results: 1,000 points.”
“Second place: Mu Qingyi. Results: 981 points.”
“Third place: Liu Qingyu. Results: 923 points.”
“Fourth place: Zheng Yi. Results: 901 points.”
“Fifth place: Wang Xuanhu. Result: 898 points.”
After seeing the rankings, Wang Xuanhu was the most furious. He originally thought that he would definitely win first place in Shuncheng High School.
Putting aside the fact that Liu Qingyu and Zheng Yi were ahead of him, Mo Xiu actually scored full marks.
Now, Wang Xuanhu only had one thought. Mo Xiu had cheated. He had to find Mo Xiu and make him reveal his true colors.
Meanwhile, Ye Qian’er, who was in a daze at home, received more than ten messages in a row.
Ye Qian’er was a little confused. Ever since she insisted that nothing had happened to Mo Xiu, she had been ostracized. Why would so many people suddenly contact her?
After reading the messages, Ye Qian’er hurriedly put on her clothes and ran to school.
This was because those messages were from her classmates. They were apologizing to Ye Qian’er.
Most of the messages said, “Qian’er, I’ve wrongly accused you. I didn’t mean to badmouth Senior Mo. Can you put in a good word for me and introduce me to him?”
Some other messages said, “Mo Xiu is too fierce. From now on, Mo Xiu will be my idol.”
When Ye Qian’er arrived at the field, she almost cried when she saw the ranking.
It wasn’t because Mo Xiu did well, but because it proved that Mo Xiu was fine.
For so many days, no matter how bad the rumors were, Mo Xiu did not respond. Even Zheng Yi had gotten in trouble.
Ye Qian’er thought that something had really happened to Mo Xiu.
However, it now seemed that Mo Xiu was fine. That was great.
