Chapter 28 Tearing Up Someone Else's Umbrella

Rule Six is ​​born under sunlight and can only be seen when light shines through it at a specific angle. If the angle is slightly off, the lettering will disappear.

Jiang He guessed that this rule was written using a special technique.

Jiang He once came across a highly visually appealing technique while browsing the StarNet.

This technique uses spiritual energy as a medium. As long as the spiritual energy comes into contact with sunlight, its shape can be seen from a specific angle.

If the person performing the spell is highly skilled, they can use spiritual energy as a brush and light and dust as scenery to create a painting.

I imagine that Rule Six follows the same principle.

Li Jing and Section Chief He, who were at the school gate, did not see anyone at seat number 4888, so they both assumed that they were seeing things and had mistaken the person for someone else.

Who would have thought that next to the screen in the classroom, atop the tower of Beihuai No. 1 Middle School, stood a person.

The attire was exactly the same as that of the late-arriving examinee that Li Jing had seen before.

"Jiang He?"

"The student we just met really is Jiang He."

Looking at Jiang He on the tower, Li Jing was momentarily stunned. He hadn't expected that Jiang He's strength would increase so much in just one month.

"But what is she doing up in the tower?"

"That's Rule Six, which Bai Zhizhou discovered first. Could it be that Jiang He discovered it too?"

"That's what Section Chief He said."

The old butler and his men, hidden among the crowd, were even more shocked.

"Butler, the person standing on the tower looks like the young lady, and it seems that the young lady is the same person who jumped off the train just now."

"What do you mean 'looks like'? That's the young lady!"

The old butler was extremely surprised. How could the young lady have made such rapid progress in just one month?

The old butler's mind sank. Instead of reporting Jiang He's whereabouts, he chose to continue watching the surveillance footage on the screen.

Jiang He wasn't the first to discover Rule Six, but he was the first to reveal it on screen.

As she looked at the manifestation of Rule Six, a bold idea came to her mind.

Jiang He was already an hour behind, and her immediate priority was to stay in the exam room. So, she decided to go back to the classroom to answer the questions, but before that, she had to do something else.

The written exam has been going on for quite some time now, and everyone who's supposed to be inside is already there. There are very few people wandering around, but people always need to eat, drink, and relieve themselves, so they'll inevitably come out of the classrooms at that time. It's possible that some students will come to this tower to enjoy the breeze and relax.

Rule Six overrides Rule Two, but most people cannot see Rule Six, and these people are absolutely unable to cheat.

In order to avoid being eliminated, Jiang He will choose to cheat, and at the same time, she will break the rules!

Make it disappear, so that only the students who saw the rule before her will be able to know Rule Six.

Parents watching the monitors outside the exam hall also saw the student who jumped out of the car enter the exam hall. They were in the third-person perspective and naturally knew the hidden rules of this year's college entrance exam, which allowed cheating.

However, the premise of this cheating is that it is not detected.

So when they saw Jiang He using spiritual energy to disrupt the sixth rule's prompt, their temples twitched.

"What is she doing? Attacking the font with a spirit energy blast?"

“This student is crazy. She destroyed the font. How can other people see it? My daughter hasn’t even discovered this rule yet.”

Seeing that Jiang He had dispersed the spiritual energy in one go, the sixth rule composed of spiritual energy also disappeared. No matter how you looked at it, you could not see this rule under the sunlight.

Li Jing watched Jiang He's actions with mixed feelings. This move was undoubtedly clever, and it immediately narrowed the gap with the others.

The moment Jiang He erased the rules, an information gap emerged.

Those who are unaware of Rule Six will follow the rules and take the exam in a proper manner, while those who are aware of Rule Six will try to cheat to get a good score.

"How much hatred did Jiang He attract with that one burst of spiritual energy?"

Looking at the angry parents who had witnessed that scene, Li Jing felt a pang of emotion.

If he were Jiang He, he would probably do the same.

Jiang He returned to the classroom only after the rule-based font disappeared.

As soon as Jiang He entered the classroom, she noticed that the facilities inside had been changed. If the classrooms at Beihuai No. 1 Middle School that she had seen before were cyberpunk-style, then the layout of this classroom was similar to the classroom she attended when she was a child.

Even the tables and chairs are made of solid wood, and even the camera design, according to a citizen on the StarNet, is extremely retro.

With only thirty minutes left before the elimination rounds began, Jiang He observed the classroom layout for a while before starting to answer the questions.

As soon as Jiang He sat down, a screen automatically appeared in front of her. When she looked around, she could see other people's screens, but she couldn't see them clearly. Just like when Jiang He sat a little further back, she couldn't see the questions on the screen.

But you can see it when you get closer.

Jiang He guessed that the questions on the screen could only be observed from a certain distance.

Jiang He swiped her fingertip lightly, and the icon to start answering questions began to flash.

Question 1 (Multiple Choice)

How many times in interstellar history have the Black Nest monsters gone out of control and invaded the Empire of All Spirits?

A 0 times

B 2 times

C 3 times

D 10 times]

Jiang He chose B without hesitation.

[Correct answer, +1 point]

Jiang He's score jumped from 0 to 1.

Jiang He had read through the history of interstellar travel books several times and had a general memory of them. As long as the test was about history, Jiang He could answer almost any question.

Question 2 (Short Answer Question)

[Should the Spirit Sword's driving route be on the right or left?]

???

Jiang He silently formed three question marks in her mind: These are things that are tested in the written exam?

She's afraid of heights, so she didn't learn sword control, and then the exam included spirit swords.

Jiang He was angry but also somewhat helpless.

She chose the answer on the right, but her answer was wrong.

One point will be deducted for each incorrect answer.

Once a question appears, you must answer it completely before you can move on to the next question.

So Jiang He successfully returned to zero points.

The next few questions were all short answer questions, and they were tricky and related to spiritual root knowledge. Although Jiang He had read the textbook, many of the questions were extracurricular questions that Jiang He had never seen before and could not answer. As a result, her score dropped to -2 points.

Seeing this, Jiang He stopped answering the questions. There are 15,000 college entrance examination candidates in Beihuai City this year.

Aside from the students at Beihuai No.1 Middle School and Yunshan Experimental High School, who have a solid foundation in cultivation knowledge, other schools certainly have no shortage of underachievers like Jiang He.

Therefore, her score was negative, and naturally, other people's scores were also negative.

If students with weak basic knowledge rush to answer questions, the more they answer, the more mistakes they will make, and their scores will naturally be at the bottom.

Therefore, Jiang He stopped answering questions. Ten minutes later, there will be the first round of elimination, which will eliminate candidates with many negative scores.

As it turned out, Jiang He was right. Many candidates went straight to the classroom to answer questions as soon as they entered the examination room, and some of the candidates from outside the examination room were completely untrained and had not undergone systematic learning, nor did they review the basic knowledge in their daily lives.

These questions were extremely difficult for them. After answering the first question, they immediately moved on to the second, hoping to get lucky and solve the problem, but lucky questions are rare.

As a result, their negative scores kept rising, and by the time they realized that the only way to stop their scores from dropping further was to stop answering questions, it was too late.

Outside the exam room, there is a ranking of scores displayed on the side of the screen. For candidates who did not choose to hide their scores, their results will appear on the scrolling screen outside the exam room.

Nearly 10,000 candidate numbers and exam scores are updated in real time on the ranking list.

The two twin sisters, Helian Fenghua and Helian Xueyue, from Yunshan Experimental High School, were tied for first place. They were known for their outstanding academic performance.

Those with negative scores are ranked at the bottom.

Two hours after the exam begins, candidates will be eliminated.
