Above the herb garden, people were already tending to the medicinal plants. When they saw someone approach, they merely glanced up before continuing with their work.
Right in front of the enormous building stood two students receiving arrivals, one male and one female. Their names were written on their chests: Colin and Marta.
Lu Yuan was far from the only person waiting at the entrance. Marta was receiving people to the side, and a short line had already formed.
When it was Lu Yuan's turn, he handed over his ticket. Colin took it, glanced at it, and led him inside while giving him a brief introduction.
The building was divided vertically into three sections: Pharmacology, Inscription Studies, and Alchemical Arts.
Horizontally, it was divided into two areas: the beginner section and the intermediate section. The cubicles were arranged by section, with a separate cubicle for each session. Examinees of the same subject and level were assigned to the same room.
Following Colin's explanation, Lu Yuan looked inside. Three rows of cubicles stretched out in a line, each doorway hung with a wooden plaque stating the subject and session. At the very back stood an elevated platform facing all the cubicles. Anyone sitting there should have been able to take in the entire venue at a glance.
The examination schedule was Pharmacology in the morning, Alchemical Arts at noon, and Inscription Studies in the afternoon.
Both beginner and intermediate certifications were held today, while advanced certification was scheduled separately for tomorrow.
Upon hearing the schedule, the weight that had been hanging over Lu Yuan's heart finally lifted.
He had been worried that selecting two tickets at once might prevent him from taking both examinations at the same time.
If the two exams had been held simultaneously, he would have been doomed.
