The red and black clowns stared at Chen Qian, their expressions gradually softening, as if congratulating him or praising him.
This is the true test of the consciousness space.
This hurdle can be called "blindness," "shortsightedness," "being caught in the middle," or "being confused by one's own involvement."
When he realized the truth before he fell into the abyss, he passed the test directly.
Shen Qian vaguely felt that the powerful figure who set up this challenge wanted to express too much, but Shen Qian couldn't figure it out for the time being.
He turned his head and glanced at the hourglass.
The tenth hourglass is almost empty.
"It's time to end the exam."
Without further delay, Shen Qian shouted the command to end the exam. The next second, his consciousness space shattered, and he returned to reality.
...
When Chen Qian took off his helmet, he was startled.
Four staff members responsible for patrolling the examination room were surrounding him, watching him in astonishment.
"Why are you all staring at me?" Shen Qian touched his face.
"Do you see anyone else in this exam room?" one of them asked.
Shen Qian turned his head to look, and was immediately stunned.
The venue was empty; sure enough, he was the only one still sitting there.
“If you don’t wake up soon, you’ll be running out of time!” Another person pointed to the clock on the wall. “I’ve proctored three exams in total, and you’re the first person I’ve ever seen who’s so slow during the Willpower Exam.”
"Hey, are you alright, classmate? I noticed your face kept changing color..." The third person first asked with concern, then with suspicion, "You're not studying drama, are you?"
You're the one who's performing, your whole family is...
"...I'm fine."
Chen lost the desire to chat, packed his things, and hurriedly left the examination room.
After Shen left, the four were preparing to seal the examination room according to procedure and back up the examination videos one by one when, with a "bang," the examination room door was suddenly pushed open.
The four people, startled, were about to scold him, but immediately shut their mouths.
Because the middle-aged man with a cold and stern face who barged in at this moment was Wang Jingtian, the chief invigilator of the first province in the southwest, the boss of their boss, and a powerful figure in the Examination Department of the Ministry of Education of China!
Behind Wang Jingtian, Ou Peiliang and other invigilators from Examination Room No. 3 rushed over. Ou Peiliang still had a look of astonishment on his face, clearly unaware of what had happened to alarm Wang Jingtian.
"Old Ou, seal off Examination Room 3. From now on, no one is allowed to touch anything inside. All staff members of Examination Room 3, including you, stay put and wait for someone to take over."
Everyone's expression changed, and they were somewhat alarmed.
This process sounds like a special procedure that would only be initiated if someone were to cheat, and it's the kind where they are all suspects.
"Team leader?"
Ou Peiliang looked at Wang Jingtian with a puzzled expression.
Wang Jingtian took Ou Peiliang to a corner by himself.
"Old Ou, you're a veteran of the Examination Inspectorate, so I won't hide anything from you. This third examination room might just produce an extraordinary genius!"
Wang Jingtian's cold and stern expression turned into one of emotion.
"What do you mean?" Ou Peiliang was taken aback.
“You should know that the data from the ‘Willpower Test’ is directly uploaded to the Ministry of Education. Just five minutes ago, I received instructions from Vice Minister Lin, who is in charge of the college entrance examination, to seal the local video recording of examination room number three in the provincial gymnasium and wait for someone to come and retrieve it.”
"You understand the rules, there are only two possibilities in this situation: either there was cheating, or highly classified assessment data was leaked!"
"But the possibility of cheating in the 'Test of Willpower' is practically zero, so the answer is obvious..."
"Team leader, may I ask which candidate's data caused this?"
Before Wang Jingtian could finish speaking, Ou Peiliang interrupted him with a strange expression.
"Is there a problem?" Wang Jingtian raised an eyebrow, keenly sensing the hidden meaning in Ou Peiliang's words.
"Because during the first round of physical fitness tests, I also submitted data that was classified as highly confidential."
Ou Peiliang's expression grew increasingly strange.
"And that student was also in exam room number three just now..."
A look of surprise appeared on Wang Jingtian's face, and he subconsciously shook his head, "You mean... no, that's impossible!"
“If I remember correctly, that student’s exam admission ticket number ended in 00001…” Ou Peiliang said slowly, while observing Wang Jingtian’s expression.
When he saw Wang Jingtian's expression suddenly freeze, Ou Peiliang was also stunned.
Apart from Chen Qian, there were no other geniuses above the required level in Examination Room 3.
He was merely suggesting one possibility.
But he himself couldn't believe it.
But facts often prove that after eliminating all possibilities, the remaining truth, however unbelievable, is still the truth.
"His physical fitness...is perfect?"
Wang Jingtian came to his senses and asked softly.
Ou Peiliang nodded. Actually, this was a bit against the rules. In theory, they should not reveal the information they had about the candidates to each other, but Ou Peiliang just couldn't suppress his desire to share at this moment.
Wang Jingtian remained silent for a long time.
When Ou Peiliang couldn't help but ask, Wang Jingtian finally came to his senses. As if he had thought of something interesting, Wang Jingtian chuckled softly.
"Old Ou, do you believe that something unexpected is going to happen in this year's college entrance exam?"
"What accident?"
Ou Peiliang was taken aback.
"You haven't been in the examination office long enough. Just wait and see, things will change."
Wang Jingtian patted Ou Peiliang on the shoulder meaningfully.
