Minor edits by bbkgs
After the incense burnt out, a gong was hit to infor was finished Chen Chang Sheng walked out of the testing building with the rest of the students and didn’t care about the people who gave him weird looks He followed the instructions and walked to the back of the lake where the results were given He waited patiently for dusk and the final testing result
Many others stayed in the building and checked ansith each other They talked to each other about their opinions of the test After Chen Chang Sheng arrived at the lake, the rocky plain was still very quiet Only the blue shi+rt youngster froeniuses were always proud and lonely As a result he didn’t walk up to hister walked towards him
“My naster said
Chen Chang Sheng was surprised He didn’t expect that the youngster would take the initiative to speak to hianized his attire and answered politely, “My last na”
Tang Thirty-Six was startled for a second He didn’t expect that the youngster’s name would be so unsophisticated Even rich people froive such a name to their son After a moment of silence he said, “Your name is simple I couldn’t say it’s bad”
(Again Chen is the fa so his na well people call out to him)
Chen Chang Sheng thought that Tang Thirty Six spoke quite boldly, but his name was also weird
“My na…because I was very sick when I was young and my Master wanted me to live to be a hundred years old What about you? Why are you na Thirty Six? Is it because you are the thirty sixth child in your family? Why do you have so many family members? Where are you fros when you are studying?”
Tang Thirty Six was stunned
Asking the in of one’s na polite In addition, Tang Thirty Six had a serious face that wasn’t exactly friendly to strangers The people who didn’t know theof his name wouldn’t dare to ask in front of him no matter how curious they were But he didn’t expect that this youngster would just ask the question so casually
But what Chen Chang Sheng thought was very si in a city where he doesn’t know anyone, he should give back friendliness to the genius illing to talk to him At least he should actively chat with hi
Chen Chang Sheng had lived with his Master and senior brother since he was young Master didn’t speak rew up in, he had no idea how to chat regularly Even when he did so with good intentions, it was easy to create , just like what happened at the Divine General’s Estate yesterday (No common sense?)
But the interesting thing is that Tang Thirty Six wasn’t offended or angered by it Rather, he thought Chen Chang Sheng as very honest and real Tang Thirty Six had alanted to be a “real” person his whole life, but people he encountered are always lying and fake The sudden encounter of Chen Chang Sheng was rather satisfying
“I have a lot of relatives froeneration in my clan, but e study ays study at our own respective ho Thirty Six not because I’m the thirty sixth child in my family, but because when I entered the Proclamation of Azure Clouds for the first time last year when I was fifteen years old, I was the thirty sixth on the list I was embarrassed by my placement Especially when I am compared to that woedThirty Six Yep, I think I answered all the questions”
This conversation was the first Chen Chang Sheng has had since leaving Xi Ning Village and arriving at the Capital The conversation was also the first for Tang Thirty Six after he left Wen Shui and arrived at the Capital At that instant Chen Chang Sheng was fourteen years old while Tang Thirty Six was going to be sixteen years old They were inexperienced inas well But the funny thing is that this conversation will prove to be one of the most important conversations that will occur in history Or it could said that it was the most successful and i and the Demon Lord
“How many questions did you answer on the test?”
Tang Thirty Six asked He was interested because he felt that Chen Chang Sheng was an ordinary person but he felt that he was special at the sa’s pale face, he realized that his question was inappropriate Even a genius like hiled in the sea of test questions It was clear that Chen Chang Sheng had used all of hisSheng’s result shouldn’t be good
“I couldn’t answer some questions in the field of cultivation like divine sense, True Essence, and other things…”
Chen Chang Sheng answered honestly and felt lucky Fro the Scriptures of The Way so the seely difficult concept and detailed questions were rather easy to him But because he didn’t cultivate, he didn’t kno to answer those questions Good thing that this was an entrance exam because the questions tested on cultivation wasn’t the main focus
Tang Thirty Six felt strange The only questions he couldn’t ansere the cultivation related ones Is he saying that he answered all of the other questions? At that instant he noticed that at the other side of the lake a teacher was holding a big stack of testing papers and ran quickly toward a building The teacher seeoing up the stairs Tang Thirsty Six was stunned for a ’s answer Is he really going to give everyone a big surprise?
“You answered…all of the rest?”
“I’m cannot speak too confidently There are two versions of the Chanting of Ultimate Calmness When the Orthodoxy was established, a new version was created and everyone used the newer version However, the question asked for the time before the year of 1573, and I wasn’t sure which version to use At last I answered with both versions I hope the teacher won’t disapprove of it and deduct points off of my answer”
After Tang Thirty Six heard Chen Chang Sheng’s response he was shocked He remained silent for a while
For that question he only knew one version and only answered with one version
After a while, he looked at Chen Chang Sheng and said, “I always thought that a certain soeneration, but I didn’t expect that you are ant than us”
Chen Chang Sheng was confused Hoas he arrogant?
