Chapter 43 Passing Line (Reuploaded)
The years passed by attending classes and practical exercises day after day, and every day was extremely fulfilling.
One month later.
Sunday at noon.
Inside the castle restaurant.
Anruer took Professor Zhuo Lang's oil blending course, left the restaurant after lunch, and rushed to the oil alchemy area.
The midday sun shines directly on the restaurant terrace of the castle, and the light is deflected, and there is a bright light curtain under the pergola.
Xia Zuo looked up at the cloudless sky, feeling a little hot in the black robe on his body.
He picked up a volume of "Starry Night Daily" from the bar of the restaurant, moved to a cool and comfortable corner, drank fragrant tea, read the newspaper, and enjoyed the rare alone time on the weekend.
A figure came over and sat down on the seat opposite.
Xia Zuo put down the newspaper and saw Mars looking at him with a smile on his face, "Hey, busy senior, why do you have time to chat with me today?"
Mars raised his arm and pointed at his cuffs. The lines representing the alchemy of rare objects changed from one red line to two.
"Congratulations, I have been successfully promoted to the skilled level rare item alchemist." Xia Zuo laughed, raising the corners of his mouth.
"Tomorrow I will start practicing the entry-level meditation method."
Mars checked the food on the menu and shook the bell to summon the elemental servants. "You may not see me for a long time until I succeed in my training."
Xia Zuo folded the newspaper and put it aside, "Aren't you coming to the restaurant for dinner?"
"Yes, I won't come to the restaurant anymore. When I first practiced meditation, the head of the hospital provided a lot of satiety potions, enough for me to take for three to five months."
Elemental servants brought steaks and fruit platters.
Mars put the napkin on his chest, rubbed his hands, picked up the knife and fork, and said with reluctance:
"I can't imagine what it would be like to go months without meat or fruit. I'm going to eat in a restaurant for a day."
"Haha, okay. Do you want me to bring you some drinks?"
Mars hesitated for a second, "Two glasses of orange juice, a glass of ice milk, and a glass of sparkling water. I know it's unhealthy to drink like this, but I'm afraid that I will regret it once I start practicing meditation."
"Okay, I'll come as soon as I go."
After a while, Xia Zuo came back with a dinner plate and placed four drinks on the table:
"Can you tell me about the final exam? Potions, oils, and poison alchemy. I have almost finished training on the application questions of these three alchemies. Only the application questions on the alchemy of rare objects are left. I am not ready yet. "
Mars swallowed the beef, took a sip of sparkling water, and wiped the corners of his mouth with a napkin:
"You are so lucky to be able to stay in the poison alchemy discipline until now. Of course, this is not caused by pure good luck. Your alchemy talent and character are both indispensable."
He stuffed a small tomato into his mouth and continued:
"It's like this...poison, oil, potion and strange objects. Among these four alchemies, the most difficult one is the alchemy of strange objects, followed by the alchemy of poisons.
"You are Professor Kulov's student, and your practical skills in poison alchemy must be good.
“Then just focus on the alchemy of rare objects.
"The good news is that the examination of the Alchemy of Strange Objects will only involve the subject of giant creations."
Xia Zuo nodded, "Yes, we have only taken courses on the subject of giant creation, and have not touched the other two branches."
Mars swallowed the tomatoes and spread his hands:
"It's a pity that the iron felts and high-temperature furnaces used in the discipline of giant creation are only available in the alchemy area of this discipline.
"Boton, the professor of this subject, is not easy to communicate with. I'm afraid you can't enter his alchemy area.
"I really want to give you my experience in this regard, but my mentor, Professor Bethel of Elemental Embodiment, gave me a gag order.
"So, I suggest you talk to your classmates in the giant creation subject and learn about their practical experience in this branch."
Xia Zuo shook his head up and down thoughtfully.
"There's one more thing I'll just tell you."
Mars scratched the blond hair on top of his head. "The final exam for freshmen is quite difficult. Many people may not be able to pass it even after retaking it for half a year."
Why, isn’t it just the content of those 25 books after all the tests? ...Xia Zuo blinked in confusion.
Mars understood the other person’s eyes:
"Take the simplest subject of functional pharmacy as an example. Its exam lasts for three days, with one book being tested every day, and every knowledge point in each book will be tested.
"If the perfect score is 1,000, what do you think would be the passing score?"
Xia Zuo frowned slightly, "800 points?"
"No, lower."
"900 points?"
Mars shook his head, "950 points is the passing mark, and this is just a book. 25 general course textbooks must be tested for 25 consecutive days, and the scores in the 25 exams must reach 950 points to pass the final exam. .”
"hiss…"
Xia Zuo took a breath. Without the help of Golden Finger, he might not be able to pass the exam in his life...
Worry arose in his heart. If Anruer failed the exam... No, I have to urge this girl to memorize the book again!
Mars leaned forward and lowered his voice:
"You should be lucky, Xia Zuo. Your memory is so good, and you are still studying poison alchemy. As long as you master the practical skills of the giant creation subject, passing the final exam is a sure thing."
After he finished speaking, he picked up the knife and fork to cut the steak and ate it.
"Listening to what you say, I'd better not waste my time reading the newspaper."
Xia Zuo stood up and put on his schoolbag, "I have to go to the poison alchemy area. Goodbye, Senior Mars, and I wish you good luck with your meditation."
Mars shouted meat and bones, waved his hands vaguely and said, "Goodbye. I wish you success in the exam."
…
Poison Alchemy Zone.
The alchemy room was silent.
Xia Zuo put down his schoolbag, walked to the soft sofa and called his tutor softly.
Kulov put down his books, looked at the slightly sad-looking student and said, "What? Are you having trouble refining poison?"
"teacher…"
Xia Zuo's eyes were complicated.
No professor ever said anything about the specifics of the exam.
If he hadn't happened to meet Mars, he might have had to wait until the exam to find out that the passing mark was as high as 950 points.
"Teacher, do you have any test papers from past exams here? I want to use them to practice writing."
Kulov pinched a corner of his beard and said, "Did the senior students tell you this? These little guys... don't tell anyone. The head of the school plans to tell you in a month."
"But now that you know everything... let's start practicing the questions first."
Kulov pointed to a bookcase covered with black cloth, "The old test questions are there. Go get them yourself. You can't take them outside, you can only do them in the poison alchemy area."
Today is more than a month and two weeks away from the final exam.
The head of the college plans to announce the exam arrangements one month later, that is, two weeks before the exam.
In other words, if you start answering questions now, you will be about a month ahead of others.
Yesterday I was so dizzy from editing the article that I didn’t go to the backend to check it. This chapter was uploaded to the backend a few days ago and is an old version. If you refresh it, you can see what I have modified. It’s so embarrassing. I’ll have to take a look backstage before going to bed.
