◎But Golden Fox has only been learning for three days!◎
This Orc exam was not much different from an ordinary Demon exam, except that it was held in a newly built exam hall on the edge of the Demon Realm.
The Demon King's Eye, which was once developed by Tok and was responsible for supervising the violations of the demons, was improved and used for disciplinary supervision in examinations. It can keenly capture any magical fluctuations and other cheating behaviors.
However, perhaps it was the first time for the orcs to take the exam and they had never expected so many fancy cheating methods. Or perhaps the inspection in front of the barrier gate was already very strict. Throughout the entire exam, no orc was caught, and everyone was quietly writing their test papers.
People like Chief Takekuma and Serval Maoji, who have studied seriously for a long time and have a solid foundation, are all writing quickly with their heads down, frowning and thinking for a moment from time to time, and then carefully writing down a few numbers.
As for the Bull Orcs and the Raccoon Orcs, although they had studied the textbooks and had basically mastered most of the knowledge, they were not able to fully digest it due to lack of study time and other reasons. They were all scratching their heads and thinking about it again and again. After finishing the simple questions, they started to chew their nails and struggle with the remaining questions. Those with a better mentality were calculating slowly with their fingers, while those with a worse mentality were already complaining to themselves.
As for the Golden Lion orcs who had not studied seriously or were just trying their luck and accumulating experience for the next exam, they basically had their eyes wide open the whole time. No matter which question they looked at, they didn't know how to answer it. So they read the questions with difficulty, wrote down a few numbers at random, and prayed that the Beast God - or the Demon God? - would be kind enough to let them answer the questions correctly.
And the God-King is the exception among exceptions.
She was in a state of high excitement throughout the whole process. After picking up the pen, she began to write quickly. At this time, she even forgot the purpose of her exam. She was only thinking about solving all these difficult problems. She used page after page of math calculation paper, and even filled up the composition for the magic test.
"I really like exams." After the bell rang to signal the end of the exam, she put down her feather pen and exclaimed involuntarily, her face filled with a happy smile.
...
...
The orc next to her looked at her as if she were a pervert, thinking that this girl must have messed up her brain due to the difficult test questions.
Under the guidance of the demons, they lined up to leave the examination hall and walked to the square not far away to disperse and move freely. There were dozens of demon shops here, selling ceramic products, rattan furniture, cotton cloth, books and other demon domain specialties.
Many orcs came over curiously and picked out the goods they wanted. Even more orcs had their minds full of thoughts about the exam. Without staying any longer, they quickly passed through the barrier and returned to the beast world. They wanted to go back to their temporary tents to have a good sleep, or flip through their textbooks to see if they had answered the questions correctly.
The God-King stopped at the stall for a moment, pretending to be selecting, but in fact he was secretly using magic to check whether these pottery jars or cotton clothes contained curses.
After carefully inspecting for a long time, she had to admit that there was nothing wrong with the goods sold by the demons. They were even of better quality than the homemade clothes of the gods. Even with the vision of the God King, he couldn't help but want to buy the porcelain vases displayed there.
However, she hesitated again and again and did not buy it. Instead, she went to the bookstall and used her only three remaining copper coins to buy a book titled "Advanced Learning of Magical Script: Reading the Story of the Farmer and the Snake". She put the book in her pocket with satisfaction, found a shady place to sit down, and observed everything around her.
Of course, she discovered that the Demon Realm is completely different from what it was ten thousand years ago. Back then, it was a barren desert, but now it is full of tall buildings and green trees. The wide square paved with stones is full of vitality, and the faces of the demons passing by are filled with proud smiles.
However, although the God King was surprised, he did not lose his composure like the Dragon Clan or the Beast King.
She herself is a person with strict self-discipline. Although she is overly demanding on justice and rules, to the extent that many angels are imprisoned in the prison of the gods, she does not like extravagant life, nor is she very interested in bustle or power. In addition, the gods have no worries about food and drink due to their own powerful strength and magical abilities, so naturally they will not covet any intention of coveting the Demon Realm.
Compared with the beautiful scenery and magnificent buildings of the Demon Realm, the God Queen was more interested in knowledge such as magic writing and mathematics. To the extent that she no longer even worried about whether the demons would invade the Beast Realm, she just wanted to finish reading the book in her hand.
As she was thinking this and was about to get up and leave, she saw a demon walking towards her in the distance. She felt a little moved and thought this was a good opportunity to observe, so she did not move anymore. Instead, she shook her fox tail and tried her best to act like an ignorant little golden fox, pretending that she was reading a book seriously.
Moril walked to the shade of the tree, stopped a few meters away from the golden fox, and asked politely, "Can I sit here?"
He came to the edge of the beast world this time not only to ensure the smooth progress of the first orc exam, but also to observe the orcs closely to prevent some orcs with bad habits or bad personalities from entering the Demon Realm.
That was why his eyes were quickly drawn to the unique golden fox. The little fox's love for the book could not be faked, and it was obvious that she was really interested in the book. Moreover, Lil noticed that when she walked to the square, her eyes fell on the core of the square's magic protection array - Lil did not think this was a coincidence.
"Hello," the God King looked at the familiar and nodded at him, "Please sit down."
After all, she has been a superior for so many years, and when she speaks, she unconsciously reveals the majestic temperament that only belongs to a king.
"I'm Li'er, the familiar of the Demon Realm Logistics Team," Li'er sat down on the stone steps next to her and said without beating around the bush, "This is the first time we've held an exam between the Demon Realm and the Beast Realm, so we need to collect everyone's opinions for improvement. Do you think there are any shortcomings in this exam?"
The God King looked at him in surprise: "You demons are actually collecting opinions from orcs?"
"Of course, this is the only way we can make progress together."
Lill shrugged and said this, keenly aware that the attitude of the golden fox in front of him towards the Demon Realm seemed to be greatly influenced by those horrible rumors and was not very friendly, so he wagged his tail and spoke seriously about the philosophy of the Demon Realm.
"Our king said that war will only lead to meaningless sacrifices. The real victory is that all races can gain benefits, and everyone can live in peace and make progress together..."
The God King listened carefully with his eyes wide open, and was almost completely convinced by this set of ideas.
As an angel who yearns for peace, her thoughts coincide with this. Considering that she has never thought about helping other disadvantaged races, she even seems a little cold and heartless.
"I was wrong," she said softly, "I shouldn't have judged the demons based on my past impressions before conducting a thorough investigation. Your Demon King is a great monarch."
Lier was stunned for a moment, thinking that the golden fox orc was talking about her rejection of the demons because of rumors, so she waved her hands and said, "What's wrong with that? You have seen the Demon Realm with your own eyes. But I still have to say that this place has only been built for a short time and is not very prosperous yet. If you can pass the exam and go to our royal city, you will know what the Demon Realm is like!"
The God King, who was originally planning to leave, hesitated for a moment, but he couldn't resist his curiosity and asked, "Is the Royal City much better than here?"
"Of course," Lill said proudly, "Let's not talk about other things, such as the book you are holding in your hand. There is a special library in the grocery street of our royal city, which contains hundreds of different books!"
"There are so many books," the God King was shocked, but he couldn't help but yearn for it. "How did you get so much knowledge? This is amazing."
"Not all of them are textbooks. There are also some short stories and scripts written by art troupes," Lier said with a smile. "I heard that reference books like the Warcraft Encyclopedia and the Magic Plant Encyclopedia are also selling well recently."
After a brief chat, Lil had a very good impression of the golden fox and smiled at her happily: "Anyway, welcome to the Demon Realm. I hope to work with you in the Royal City one day."
The God King nodded to him and said goodbye, then watched the familiar go away. He hesitated for a moment but did not leave immediately.
According to her original idea, now that she had investigated the intentions of the Demon Realm, she should return to the God Realm. Perhaps she could get in touch with the Demon King and use the God Realm's unique magic or other resources in exchange for the Demon Realm's important knowledge such as mathematics and magic writing.
But she really wanted to know how she did in the exam, and she also wanted to go to the royal city to see the library that Liel mentioned, which had hundreds of different books. After hesitating for a long time, she comforted herself in her heart, "I have to go to the royal city to confirm that what the demons said is true," and then waited for the final written test results with the orcs.
When Lille counted the number of orcs who had signed up for the exam a few days ago, there were more than 8,000 orcs who had signed up. However, perhaps some orcs withdrew at the last minute or failed to make it in time, and in the end, not so many orcs actually participated in the exam. A total of only 7,600 orcs participated in the exam.
All members of the Demon Realm Logistics Team were mobilized, and members of the Trade Team were also brought in to mark the test papers day and night. By the morning of the third day after the exam, they had finally finished marking all the papers, calculated the scores and ranked them, then gathered the orcs together and announced in public the list of the top 500 orcs who would enter the interview.
"First place, Takekuma Hanahaku, with a total score of 188."
Huabai proudly held a bamboo leaf in his mouth, accepting the admiring gazes of the orcs around him.
"Second place, Bamboo Bear tribe leader Hua Mi, with a total score of 186."
Chief Bamboo Bear nodded modestly to the other orcs, and was so excited that he almost jumped up.
After the test, he checked answers with the bamboo bears, the serval chief, and the serval Maoji, and was basically sure of their respective scores. Unless there were any unexpected events, the third place should be Hanamatsu, the bamboo bear from their bamboo bear tribe.
The Bamboo Bear Clan took the top three places in this important exam. Even with the non-negligible factor that the Bamboo Bear Clan had the longest review time, it was enough for the Demon King to look at the Bamboo Bear Clan differently.
Takekuma Hanamatsu obviously thought the same. He straightened his back and waited happily for the demon to read out his name.
"Tied for second place, Golden Fox Chenwang, with a total score of 186."
All the orcs were stunned.
"What?" Takekuma Hanamatsu couldn't help shouting, "But Golden Fox has only been learning for three days!"

I'd like to ask for leave from everyone. I have to have an eye surgery tomorrow, so there will be no updates on Monday. Considering the recovery period of my eyes, it is estimated that it will be difficult to update on Tuesday. Anyway, I will try my best to write as much as I can, and I will make up for the missed updates later. Thank you for your understanding www
