《Start With Contracting Sprites》Chapter 36: Full Marks
Advertisement
Is it feasible?
This was the question An Yushan was pondering.
He couldn't judge in a short period of time, so the best method was to do an experiment.
He thought about it in another way, shook his head, and laughed.
"Mr. Su Hao's plan gave us brand-new enlightenment. Although it has yet to be tried in practice, and we can't be sure if his plan is effective… The most important attribute for Sprite Cultivators is the courage to explore.
"Mr. Su Hao started from sprite materials of other elements and designed a complete plan. Regardless of whether it can eventually work, this kind of spirit is hard to come by and worth learning from.
"In my opinion, Mr. Su Hao has completely fulfilled the requirement to become a qualified Sprite Cultivator."
"So…" An Yushan paused. "My opinion is that we do a real-life experiment with Mr. Su Hao's plan, but regardless of whether the eventual result is successful, the candidate Su Hao will be given a pass."
I did it!
The examiners didn't lower their voices during their conversation.
Finally, Su Hao, who was never truly confident after a mere month of studying, felt relieved.
My hard work isn't wasted after all!
The other candidates' looks were a bit complicated.
There was admiration, envy, and jealousy…
After Su Hao secured one place, the chance of them being able to pass was even lower.
A deputy examiner called out a few sentences from the back. After a moment, a Superpower Gibbon came running, carrying a huge water jar and other materials.
Superpower Gibbon was the evolved form of Long-Armed Gibbon. Its height was two to three meters, with strong muscles. It was considered really strong among the gibbon kind, but the way it carried the water jar was very careful, and it placed it in front of the examiners' table gently.
Then, the Superpower Gibbon grabbed a piece of hollowed tree trunk, held it between its palms, and exerted force.
Bang!
A large piece of hollowed tree trunk turned into powder and fell down into the water bucket filled with Elemental Water Spiritual Liquid.
Superpower Gibbon grabbed White-Headed Tortoise, which kept retreating in panic and pressed its head right into the Elemental Water Spiritual Liquid.

The corners of Su Hao's eyes slightly twitched as he witnessed this.
This is really… Wasteful!
How much would this big bucket of Elemental Water Spiritual Liquid cost!?
After being forcefully fed spiritual liquid, the White-Headed Tortoise was then thrown into a large water jar filled with clear water.
A Water-Treading Snail drifted into the examination hall, moving on top of a water stream.
Su Hao's eyes widened.
Water-Treading Snail was the evolved form of Little Sea Snail. The whole sprite was a giant sea snail, even bigger than a backpack.
A small head secretively emerged out of the water surface underneath the shell's opening before retreating back again.
Instantly, the water inside the giant water jar started spinning rapidly. White-Headed Tortoise moved its four limbs clumsily but was still turned over and over again by the water swirls.
It was forced to keep the balance and travel against the direction of the water.
The head examiner, An Yushan, observed for a moment to make sure it was the same as the plan and nodded slightly.
The experiment was safe. Regardless of whether it worked, the materials and method of training wouldn't hurt the White-Headed Tortoise—this was also why he arranged for an immediate experiment without hesitation.
"It would take time to see whether the plan works. Now, let's finish the exam reviews first."
The last 29 candidates in the examination hall held their breaths.
Apart from Su Hao, all their marks were already ascertained.
A deputy examiner started announcing the marks.
"Ai Zishi, 97 marks."
"Wang Li, 91 marks."
"Wang De, 89 marks."
…
"Yang Donghai, 82 marks."
"Luo Chengkong, 82 marks."
"Zhang Jide, 82 marks."
…
Su Hao noticed that when the examiner announced the name "Yang Donghai", the middle-aged man trembled visibly.
Then, he was stunned, and sweat emerged on his forehead.
"Did I pass?"
There were a total of 9 people above 82 marks, 10 including himself.
The middle-aged man had said that the number of people who passed the examination in the last two years had been 11 and 12, respectively.
Yet there were four people with 82 marks.

The examiner said, "During this examination, our Yunhua Examination Point has a quota of 12 for certifying Sprite Cultivators. We, the examiners, have the power to reject you. We can accept less but not more.
"Now, for the candidates with 82 marks, you will be given a chance to fight for the final spot." He paused a little and said, "You have 5 minutes to write down any changes in the White-Headed Tortoise's state right now."
The four candidates, including Uncle Yang, were stunned for an instant, but then, they quickly got to work.
The other candidates, including Su Hao, dared not disturb them.
There was only the sound of water swirling inside the whole examination hall.
After 5 minutes, the four candidates handed in their answers.
In less than 2 minutes, the examiners finished reviewing the answers and gave out the last two places.
"Yang Donghai, Zhang Jide."
Uncle Yang's mouth opened wide, and his trembling hands covered it tightly, while tears of joy flowed down his face.
The candidates who had just seen a glimmer of hope collapsed on their chairs in disappointment.
Hard work may not reap results. This was reality.
The examiners had seen it too much, so there was no change in their expressions. They were just waiting silently, observing the White-Headed Tortoise's changes.
The other candidates also gradually pacified their emotions and became interested in knowing whether or not Su Hao's plan could really succeed.
"There's a clear increase in White-Headed Tortoise's spiritual force!"
"Examine it with the apparatus. It's more accurate."
"Its spiritual force increased by 2.6, the extra nutrients are digested. It's a perfect plan!"
The examiners were excited.
The candidates widened their eyes in astonishment.
It really worked?!
The candidate named Su Hao devised a plan that even the examiners couldn't be sure of and had to be tested by experiment?!
The head examiner made the final announcement. "Candidate Su Hao explored in a new direction and came up with a perfect plan, so for this examination, he gets… Full marks!"
He didn't hold back at all!
Suddenly, the examination hall became noisy, and the looks everyone gave Su Hao became different.
This young man has unlimited future potential!
The Association of Sprite Cultivators acted very fast.
A mere minutes after ascertaining candidates' choice to receive the Sprite Cultivator Certification, the Association sent over 12 certificates.
It was a hard card printed with Su Hao's facial photo and name, and marked in large letters with the words "Entry-Level Sprite Cultivator".
With this certificate, I'll be able to work at many organizations and companies. It wouldn't be hard to even get a more than 10,000 yuan salary.
Furthermore, it can also act as a cover for the interface. In the future, if anyone questions how I improved unique skills, I'll directly take out the certificate and shove it in their face… It also won't be too abrupt when I discover the new evolution of Silkworm Baby in the future.
I'll also become part of the profession, and get discounts for buying many items!
Perfect!
"Mr. Su Hao, are you interested in working at our Yunhua City Association?"
An Yushan, the head examiner, smiled as gently as the spring breeze, not showing the least bit of his majesty as the head examiner just now.
The face of the examiner, who was from An City's Association, changed slightly.
Su Hao was from their An City! How could they attempt to headhunt this talent before him!?
Su Hao froze momentarily, thought a little, and politely rejected President An's offer. "I'm sorry, Mr. An. I'm still a high-school student, so I have to prioritize my studies."
"Yes, yes. Studies are the most important." An Yushan wasn't angry at all. "Mr. Su Hao, when you graduate in the future, remember to consider our Yunhua Association. Our Honorary President is Master Chen Ping, and our resources are amongst the richest in the whole province."
Su Hao could only nod and nod.
However, his goal had always been to become a Sprite Trainer, a top-level Sprite Trainer.
In any case, any Sprite Trainer who didn't want to be a Sprite Cultivator wasn't a good enough student.
