Don't try to cultivate immortality; mortals live longer than immortals.

Upon hearing this, the air in the classroom seemed to freeze.

Everyone turned their heads.

I want to see which guy has such a unique way of thinking, asking such fresh and unconventional questions, even those that are rich in philosophical insights.

Duan Xuan rubbed his forehead. If things continued like this, he would have to consider whether or not to sever ties with his childhood friend.

Ever since his goofy spiritual root was discovered, this kid's behavior has become increasingly outrageous, completely letting loose...

Although this was done to adapt to the needs of cultivation, its impact on his image far exceeded expectations.

Duan Xuan couldn't help but sigh: "No wonder those geniuses in history who had silly spiritual roots, although most of them soared to great heights in the path of immortality, became remarkable cultivators as long as they didn't die young."

"But correspondingly, these guys are all cursed with bad luck; not only do they not get married or find wives, but even their friends eventually leave them one by one..."

Wouldn't it be better to stay by someone's side and rely on their strength?

No, while thighs may be tempting, we also need to consider the practical implications.

Despite the strange looks from the crowd, Zhou Ran was smug. At this moment, the silly spiritual root was showing good results under his exploration, and he felt that his thinking was much clearer than usual.

Next, let them see how a genius performs. It's just a cultivation qualification certificate; a genius like myself can pass it without any problem.

The teacher on the podium frowned and was also drawn in when he heard the question, but when he saw that it was Zhou Ran, his ugly expression immediately relaxed.

First in the entire school in entrance exam scores?

Yes, you have the right to be willful.

The teacher immediately became gentle and kind: "Don't worry, the fasting pills we're distributing are a deeply upgraded plus version, catering to user needs and directly addressing user pain points. They are not only nutritious and filling, but also won't cause side effects like needing to use the restroom after taking them."

"By the way, this fasting pill is the third-generation product developed by a company under the Baiwei Group. It has passed the certification of the Immortal Alliance's Food and Elixir Supervision Bureau. It's a big brand, so it's guaranteed!"

"As for Baiwei Group, I'm sure everyone has heard of it. It was founded a hundred years ago by our school's principal, Baiwei Zhenjun. It integrates the production of spiritual food, the cultivation of spiritual materials, and the innovation and development of elixirs. It is a top-tier enterprise in our Shuiyun Star. The fasting pills that everyone is taking this time are sponsored free of charge by Baiwei Group."

"..."

The students were stunned. The 24-hour joint exam was about to begin, which would determine whether they could successfully obtain their cultivation qualification certificate. But the proctor was on the podium... calling GG?

"this……"

However, the other party did not give them any time to think. This opportunistic GG was just to give the freshmen a general impression of Baiwei Group.

No need for much; after all, this will be the first related company they encounter after embarking on the path of cultivation. A vague impression is enough.

This will facilitate future consumption and sales.

"Alright, if there are no further questions, then next up is the cultivation qualification certification exam that will determine your fate. I wish you all the best in achieving good results."

The teacher had already handed out the test papers by this point.

With a flick of his sleeve, the thick stack of exam papers seemed to have eyes of their own, flying in a neat and orderly fashion to each student.

The teacher then took out a bed from the storage bag and lay down on it openly. Although there was no snoring, the even breathing indicated that she was fast asleep.

"Ah, this..."

The students were all stunned and completely bewildered.

Are you kidding me? Teacher, you're here to proctor the exam. To sleep so blatantly like this shows a complete disregard for our morals.

I'd feel bad for not making some cheat sheets!

The students blushed, feeling humiliated and slighted, but such thoughts only flashed through their minds before some of them quickly realized what was happening.

No, we can't judge a book by its cover. What if they've set a trap for us?

Don't forget, this is the highest institution of learning on Shuiyun Star. Don't be fooled by the unassuming appearance of this teacher in front of you; heaven knows what level of old monster he is.

It's likely that Foundation Establishment is the minimum requirement, and the possibility of Golden Core is also extremely high.

In this situation, cheating is tantamount to courting death. The other person may appear to be asleep, but who knows if they are secretly using their divine sense to monitor the entire scene.

This was a piece of cake for him.

No one's actions could escape the proctor's notice. Forget cheating, he could probably even count the number of dandruff flakes that fell from your scalp when you scratched your head...

"hiss……"

Thinking hard.

The students patted their chests, not daring to cause trouble. No one wanted to be the first to speak up, so they all obediently began to answer the questions.

In this world where the path of immortality is highly developed, offering cheat sheets to someone who is suspected to be a Golden Core Ancestor would only make you look a bit dim-witted.

……

Twenty-four hours passed quickly.

The students sighed and complained; the exam was more difficult than they had imagined.

Subjects that require memorization are manageable, but the real challenge is mathematics, which is so difficult that it makes many students blush with embarrassment.

But so what?

As it turns out, even when frustrated by the difficulty of the problem, or in a state of extreme anger... you still can't solve a math problem.

This has caused people to worry deeply about their future. It seems like there are many math problems left unsolved, and if they fail, the prospect of eating terrible meals three times a day is not something that most people can endure.

"Ah Xuan, how did the exam go?"

Compared to his classmates' anxiety, Zhou Ran looked full of confidence. His lively and carefree demeanor was particularly irritating in the current atmosphere.

If it weren't for the teacher collecting the papers, many students would have liked to put a sack over his head and drag this wretched kid into the alley...

Let you show off.

Don't you understand the simple truth that showing off will get you struck by lightning?

However, Zhou Ran was completely unaware that he had incurred the wrath of the crowd, and continued to strut smugly toward them with an air of indifference.

"It's alright, maybe... I can pass!"

Duan Xuan's answer was ambiguous.

He's not an idiot like the one in front of him, so of course he wouldn't say anything in public that would make people jealous.

As for the real situation... pshaw, it's just a certification exam covering Chinese, math, physics, chemistry, biology, history, geography, and even the basics of cultivation.

Although I'm a terrible student... my buddy has cheat codes!

It's not like I'm just opening a small shop; I've signed the "Lingyun Auxiliary Program Service Agreement." Although I haven't figured out the specific functions of the system yet, I can easily cheat or something.

In the past week, Duan Xuan hadn't studied much because Ling Yun had confidently told him that he could just rely on her for help during the exam.

From the AI's perspective, she and her host are now bound together by fate, and there will be many more opportunities to use Duan Xuan in the future. So how could she not lend a hand now?

This is also a good opportunity to demonstrate her sincerity and ability. After all, as the main system of Shuiyun Star, she manages daily affairs, and she was the one who set the questions for this cultivation qualification certification exam.

Helping the host cheat is a logical closed loop!

It is extremely easy.
