A flicker of surprise crossed Li Dong's eyes.
"This guy... actually managed to stay on?"
This was actually the first test.
It tested the new students' powers of observation and ability to adapt.
Standing on the Seven-Colored Divine Sparrow's back was simple. They only needed to gather spiritual energy beneath their feet and let it adhere to the spiritual energy covering the sparrow's body. Then they could stand firmly.
Of course.
It was easy to explain, but not nearly as easy to do.
The main purpose was to test their mastery of spiritual energy.
Simply gathering spiritual energy beneath their feet wasn't enough.
They also had to control it precisely, finding a point of balance with neither too much nor too little. Only then would it adhere perfectly.
Even a little too much or too little would leave them unable to stand.
Yet Zhou Fan had planted himself firmly on his very first attempt.
That meant his control over spiritual energy was already remarkably precise!
"He actually succeeded without any hints."
"No wonder he's the Southern District's top student. He's certainly got some skill." Li Dong nodded approvingly.
Then he told everyone,
"To stand on the Seven-Colored Divine Sparrow's back, you need to gather spiritual energy beneath your feet. That's how you stick to it."
"But you won't be able to stand if you use too much or too little."
"This tests how precisely you can control your spiritual energy."
"This is your first entrance test."
An uproar broke out among the students.
Wait, the entrance tests were starting already?
Without even a heads-up?
And without telling them what to focus on beforehand?
A surprise attack-how sneaky!
"He really stayed on? Then let me try too!"
Seeing Zhou Fan succeed, Zhao Qiu immediately followed his earlier instructions, gathering spiritual energy
