After all the candidates were seated, Teacher Sun blew the whistle. The rare bird raised its head, called "wooooo" twice, spread its wings and flapped them. The strong wind shook the surrounding trees violently, and the bird used the force to soar into the sky.
The candidates on the bird's back were very excited.
This bird car has a very fast speed and the bird driver makes a loud "whoosh" sound. It is really thrilling.
Kevin and Pei Jun were the only ones left on the empty dam.
Kevin was a very outgoing person. He walked up to Pei Jun with a smile and started chatting with him.
At first, Pei Jun chatted with him for a few sentences out of politeness, but soon he couldn't stand it anymore - Kevin not only had a weird accent, but was also a chatterbox. Once he opened his mouth, he would chat non-stop, noisier than 500 ducks. And not only did he chatter himself, he also insisted that the person he was chatting with chatter as well. And the content of the chat was extremely boring, neither poetry nor life philosophy.
How could Pei Jun bear this?
He is not Su Mu. As long as he is paid enough, he can chat with five hundred ducks for a long time.
Besides, he doesn't talk much usually.
Pei Jun could only find an excuse, saying that he wanted to call his family to tell them the good news. Then he avoided Kevin and ran to a small wood in the distance, pretending to be making a phone call.
Kevin didn't follow him, he was still polite.
However, after Pei Jun put away the phone, he immediately went closer.
Pei Jun was so scared when he saw this that he quickly took out his phone again, found his earphones and put them on, and then he held the phone and kept muttering to himself, pretending to be "I'm studying, please don't disturb me".
Kevin is a smart man, how could he not know what it means? He smiled bitterly and shrugged his shoulders, and instead of going over to find some fun, he found a stone bench to sit down, and took out his phone to play with it.
Su Mu in Shangqing Palace had no idea what was happening outside.
Following the admissions teachers into the palace, he was arranged to sit on a bamboo chair.
Wen Wubin personally made him a cup of tea and said with a smile, "Don't be nervous, Su Mu. We kept you here because we have a few questions to ask you."
After a pause, he continued, "Come, have a sip of tea first. This is the Snow Bud Spiritual Tea produced in our Qingcheng Mountain's Zhangren Peak. It is soaked with the unique spiritual mist and rain dew of our Qingcheng Mountain. It is rich in spiritual energy. Drinking it for a long time can cleanse the internal organs and meridians, strengthen muscles and bones, and is of great benefit to spiritual practice. You can't drink Snow Bud Spiritual Tea in other places."
Wen Wubin's words were obviously pointed, especially since he deliberately emphasized the pronunciation of "unique to our Qingcheng Mountain".
This practice of sneaking in private work makes the admissions teachers of other schools very unhappy.
But you have to admit, this tea is indeed extraordinary.
The tea leaves are beautifully curled with white hairs visible on them, as if covered with snow and dew, and the green and white colors are very beautiful.
The tea soup is bright and tender green, like a pool of autumn water, or like emerald green, extremely beautiful.
There is a spiritual energy on the rim of the cup, surging and full of spiritual interest.
As for the fragrance, it is light but not scattered, condensed but not greasy, and has a hint of wild mountain flavor. Close your eyes and smell it carefully, it's like standing on the top of a mountain, watching the sun rise and set, and the wind and clouds change...
It really deserves the name of 'spiritual tea'.
"Thank you, teacher."
Su Mu held the tea in his hands, looked at it and smelled it, marveling at it and finding it very interesting. However, it was too hot to drink.
When the admissions teachers from other schools saw this situation, they became anxious.
While cursing Wen Wubin in their hearts for being shameless and actually using such means to seduce Su Mu, they said, "Student Su Mu, although the Snow Bud Spiritual Tea from Qingcheng Mountain is good, the spiritual tea from our place is also good. If you have a chance, come to our school to taste and compare, and see which spiritual tea suits your taste better. After all, you will have to drink it often in the future."
Wen Wubin didn't say anything, just glared at these people, but these people were not afraid of him and immediately glared back.
Although they did not quarrel like before, the confrontation overtly and covertly was still fierce, but it was slightly concealed in front of Su Mu.
"Let's get down to business." Wu Jian glared at the admissions teachers who were comparing tea leaves.
Well, it was mainly because Southwest University of Science and Technology and Cultivation University did not offer a spiritual plant major, so there was no spiritual tea or anything like that. He wanted to compete with others, but there was nothing to compare with… You couldn’t compare rune codes with spiritual tea, right? That thing couldn’t be eaten.
So, let’s get down to business.
Wu Jian raised his hand, and the Soul Rune appeared in his hand.
"Student Sumu, let's talk about this Soul-Moving Rune. I see that what you drew is different from what was taught. Did you learn it somewhere before?"
Su Mu was well prepared and answered calmly: "No, I learned it during the exam."
Wu Jian asked again: "Why did you draw like this? Especially these few places, which are very different from what was taught. What do you think?"
These questions were crucial. The admissions teachers stopped their eye contact and waited for Su Mu to answer.
Su Mu said, "It's like this. When I was learning the Soul Rune, I always felt that these places were awkward, as if there were problems and deficiencies, so I tried to modify them, and then changed them to what they are now... Teacher, is the Soul Rune I modified effective?"
The last question was asked knowingly.
But Wu Jian and the others didn't know and just thought that Su Mu really didn't understand. After all, no matter how smart Su Mu was, he was just a candidate and hadn't really started practicing. Even if he improved the Soul Rune, he couldn't verify its effect.
The teachers could never have imagined that Su Mu’s understanding of the Soul Runes was deeper than any of them!
Wu Jian praised: "We have tried it and the effect is very good. Your change is correct and worth promoting."
The other admissions teachers interrupted at this time and praised Su Mu a lot.
Wu Jian had no choice but to wait for a while. After everyone had praised him to the point of exhaustion, he asked again, "Did you come up with the changes to the Soul Rune yourself?"
"Yes." Su Mu nodded.
"Then can you explain in detail the basis and theory behind these changes?"
Wu Jian asked a very professional question, obviously wanting to examine whether Su Mu's successful modification of the runes was due to luck or whether he really had unique insights.
At the same time, he only asked about the theoretical basis, and did not ask about the specific direction and changes of the spiritual energy when drawing talismans, in order to avoid suspicion and prevent the new painting method from being leaked.
The world attaches more importance to intellectual property.
In fact, whether it is luck or strength, Su Mu's keen insight into the knowledge of talisman arrays and his super learning ability have been proven.
In Wu Jian's eyes, Su Mu was already a genius. Now he wanted to see how strong this genius was!
What Su Mu wanted was to astound everyone with his skills, so of course he would not hide his shortcomings at this time.
"This is what I think..."
He put down his teacup and began to speak incessantly.
Starting from his understanding of the Soul-Moving Runes, he talked about how to discover the shortcomings and weaknesses of the runes, and then talked about the basis for changes, as well as the design principles of the new rune drawing method, etc.
The theory of the Soul Rune was learned together with Su Mu's study. After the krypton gold upgrade, this theory was also revised and improved, and was deeply imprinted in Su Mu's mind.
But Su Mu did not do as he was told when he was speaking. Instead, he deliberately spoke in a disorganized manner, giving people a feeling that his speech was not yet complete.
This actually makes the admissions teachers feel more reasonable.
But the shock in my heart was not diminished at all.
A candidate who has never studied the art of talisman formations systematically, when he comes into contact with the Soul-Traveling Rune for the first time in the exam, can grasp its theory and drawing methods so thoroughly, and make great and excellent improvements.
Although its theory is a bit scattered, once it is sorted out, it can become a heavyweight paper that can shock the world of cultivation!
Before, everyone wanted to see how strong this genius Su Mu was, but now they were all shocked by him.
So much so that after Su Mu finished his explanation, no one in the room spoke. Everyone was thinking about what he had just said and marveling at his performance.
