Bai Pu's Blank Exam!

Sitting in the college entrance examination hall, Bai Pu's mood was surprisingly calm.

The spacious classroom had four rows of desks arranged in a 7887 pattern, totaling 30 desks.

Classical music, "The Sun Always Comes After the Storm," played on the broadcast, followed by the routine disciplinary instructions.

"As an Awakened, you must not rely on your special talents or abilities to cheat in the college entrance examination… Each examination hall has spirit energy monitoring equipment, and anyone who activates a skill will trigger an alarm immediately…"

"To reiterate, the fairness of the college entrance examination is of utmost importance, as it relates to the world event rewards issued by the Spirit Realm Will! If any cheater obtains a ranking above the Silver Rank, the Spirit Realm Will will not recognize it. If you lose the world event reward because of this, you will be a sinner of Hua Xia…"

Two proctors, like wound-up robots, busily conducted security checks, unsealed the papers, and distributed them. Once everything settled down and all the examinees began to write furiously, the two proctors breathed a sigh of relief and stood at the front and back of the examination hall, respectively, entering a boring time of counting squares.

The Awakened Exam's cultural subjects consisted of four papers: History, Philosophy, Biology, and Geography.

All four papers were distributed at once, and the examination time was from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, a total of six hours.

Eat lunch? Go to the toilet?

There was no need. As an Awakened, if you didn't even have this much endurance, it would be embarrassing to say it out loud.

Unlike the subjects before the spirit energy era, these four subjects all served the spirit energy civilization.

Bai Pu opened the History paper and was surprised to find a short answer question.

"Please briefly describe the life of Friedrich William, a famous historical figure in 17th-century Northern Europe."

The Elector of Brandenburg, the founder of the Kingdom of Prussia, the ancestor of the German Emperor, Duke William, I didn't expect us to meet in this way.

Bai Pu was slightly emotional, and then he wrote quickly.

"Friedrich William, also translated as Frederick William. Born in Cölln's Berlin City Palace… During his reign, he continuously expanded his territory, forcing Poland to give up its suzerainty over Prussia… He attached importance to the development of industry and commerce, opened canals, rewarded culture, and accepted immigrants… He reorganized the army, suppressed local forces, and strengthened central power…"

Bai Pu wrote about Duke William in European history in the real world.

As for Duke William of the Flesh Plague: Origin Plane, he was a powerful figure born under the evolution of the Spirit Realm Will's rules.

The more prominent Duke William's reputation in real history and the higher the degree of legend, the stronger Duke William's strength or influence in the Spirit Realm plane.

This is the relationship between the real world and the Origin Plane—the Origin Plane is a plane world evolved by the Spirit Realm Will intercepting a certain period of history or a certain area of the real world as the background and adding elements of certain supernatural powers.

Therefore, studying history well is helpful for Spirit Realm exploration, although the historical figures in the evolved Spirit Realm may have been completely changed, but at least it can provide some reference.

After completing the simplest History paper, Bai Pu opened the Philosophy paper.

Scenario discussion question.

"Plane World: Dragon Soul: Revival of Ancient Martial Arts."

"Time: Late 19th century and early 20th century; Location: Asia - Hua Xia."

"Background: In the Hua Xia land where the great powers are rampant, the Qing Dynasty Court is corrupt and incompetent, the people are ignorant and numb, the ancient martial arts are unable to resist foreign guns and cannons, and are gradually declining. The Qinling Mountains earth dragon turns over, the Hua Xia Dragon Qi revives, and the ancient martial arts that are about to come to an end areradiate new vitality…"

"Situation: Zhu Hongdeng, the leader of the Boxer Rebellion, sneaks into the Qing Dynasty Court, kidnaps Empress Dowager Cixi, and intends to change Empress Dowager Cixi's policy of 'changing appeasement to suppression' towards the Boxer Rebellion, so that the Boxer Rebellion returns to the road of supporting the Qing and destroying the foreigners to fight against the foreign countries."

"Please persuade Empress Dowager Cixi from the perspective of primary and secondary contradictions."

This philosophical question is to examine the Awakened's eloquence.

Moreover, the question has already prompted "the perspective of primary and secondary contradictions", this question is very simple, and there is no answer that can be found in another way.

Bai Pu's grasp of philosophical theories was very solid. Although he usually didn't like to chat with people, when it came to debate, his eloquence was absolutely top-notch.

Soon, a flowery "admonition" was written.

After that, there was the Biology Exam, which tested the Awakened's ability to collect precious material from mutated demon plants and mutated monsters; the Geography Exam, which tested the Awakened's vision for surveying terrain and excavating Spirit Energy mineral deposits...

Education serves the needs of the country, and this is absolutely true. The country now needs Awakened who can competently collect and excavate Spirit Energy materials, which is reflected in the college entrance examination papers.

Bai Pu spent only two hours to complete the exam paper that originally required six hours, and he even checked it again.

He originally wanted to hand in the paper, but the invigilator waved his hand to refuse, as it was not allowed to hand in the paper early after the exam started.

Bai Pu didn't dare to violate the examination discipline, so he could only lie on the table and sleep to replenish his energy.

The invigilator shook his head helplessly when he saw this scene, thinking that he was another academic scum. Although the cultural subjects only accounted for 20% of the score in the Awakened Exam, they still had to be taken seriously. Sleeping during the exam meant he probably had no chance with the Eight Famous Schools.

However, sleeping was not a violation of discipline, so the invigilator naturally wouldn't interfere.

The long six hours finally passed.

"Hey, hey, this examinee, don't sleep!"

The invigilator woke Bai Pu up speechlessly and took away his answer sheet.

Bai Pu stretched his sore arms, loosened his muscles, and quickly became radiant. He followed the crowd and walked out of the examination area.

The outside was crowded with parents who were sending their children to the exam, all stretching their necks and looking forward to it.

No one sent Bai Pu to the exam. He strolled to the school sign of Seventeen Middle School. The gray-haired Old Principal was struggling to hold the school sign of Xi City Seventeen Middle School over his head, followed by several teachers from the senior year.

This was a kind of meaning for the college entrance examination, the higher the school sign was held, the better the students would perform. It also had the meaning of "passing the score line", which was the same reason why parents wore cheongsams and high heels to send their children to the exam before the Spirit Energy era.

A group of students had already gathered around the school sign. Some were elated, while others were sad.

"Examinees from the Cultural Class, don't compare answers, there are other subjects to be tested later!" Teacher Ren held a loudspeaker, "Examinees from the Combat Class, don't compare answers either. Although your cultural subjects are over, there will be a simulated battle tomorrow, so don't let this affect your performance..."

As for the examinees of the Awakened Exam, there was only Bai Pu in Seventeen Middle School, so Teacher Ren didn't need to hold a loudspeaker to speak.

Even with this shouting, there were still Combat Class students who quietly came over, wanting to compare answers with Bai Pu.

Bai Pu was doing the Awakened Exam, and the written part of the Awakened Exam was the same as the written part of the Combat Class.

The difference between the two was that the virtual battle in the Awakened Exam was much more difficult.

Of course, in addition to the virtual battle subject, the Awakened Exam also had a Spirit Realm Exploration Subject to be tested, which the Combat Class students who had not yet awakened didn't need to take.

The students in the Cultural Class could choose majors in logistics and scientific research in the future.

The Cultural Class exam only had a written part, and the written content didn't include the tendency of Spirit Realm Exploration. They were tested on the knowledge of Spirit Energy technology and social humanities, which were more detailed in these two aspects.

The Cultural Class students didn't take the exam for six hours at a time, completing all the written content at once. Their written subjects were divided into six sessions, each lasting one to two hours. They only took two sessions today, and they would take two sessions tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.

The girl who came to compare answers with Bai Pu plucked up her courage but was scared back by Bai Pu's unfocused and indifferent eyes.

A boy came over and asked Bai Pu for the answer to a certain question.

"Don't ask, Bai Pu didn't do anything, he probably handed in a blank paper!" A student said in a low voice, "After our exam ended, I passed by Bai Pu's exam room... The invigilator was waking him up at that time."
