Upon entering the testing grounds, Shigure realized that it was much bigger than he had imagined.
It was the last day of enrollment, but there were still many people. There were two lines.
Amongst them were commoners from Liuhun Street, as well as nobles from Nanling Court like Shigure.
They all had obvious symbols on their clothes and could be recognized at a glance.
As for Shigure's Hichuan family, they had a small river tattooed on their clothes that extended from the left sleeve to the waist.
Shigure walked to the back of a queue on the right. Before long, a girl appeared behind him.
The second daughter of the low-level noble Sato family, Sato Yan.
Shigure and she were actually not very close, but the two families often interacted with each other.
Yan Sato was shocked when he saw Shigure. He then ran over with small steps.
"Hey, Qichuan, are you also forced to take the entrance exam?”She asked with her round eyes wide open.
Shigure chuckled." No, I came on my own accord.”
"Eh?" Zuo Tianyan was obviously surprised, and then he said with a bitter face,""Sigh, it's impossible for my spiritual power to reach the standard of the test, but my family insisted on letting me come…However, since you took the initiative to come, it means that you want to become the Grim Reaper, right? You have to work hard!"
Shigure smiled and nodded." I'll do my best.”
The two of them chatted as the team moved forward.
Before Shigure came, he had already learned that the Spiritual Academy's examination was split into two parts.
Spiritual force test and written test.
However, there was a saying in the Corpse Soul World-"The written test of the Spiritual Academy is only a test for mediocre people.”
This was because, in the face of an absolutely powerful spiritual talent, the written test was just an unnecessary procedure that could be skipped.
As for the method of testing spiritual power, there were many kinds of it, and it had been changing for thousands of years.
The item being tested today was called "Spirit Bamboo".
There was a small pond in front of him, and ten short bamboos floated above it.
The tester needed to inject his spiritual energy into the pool. When the floating bamboo sensed spiritual power, it would stand up.
The examiner who was observing from the side judged the level of spiritual pressure based on the number of bamboo sticks erected.
The more bamboos erected, the stronger the tester's spiritual power.
The three bamboos were the passing line for the test, representing the seventh grade of Spirit Pressure, and so on.
"Ryunosuke Shimizu."
The examiner read out a name. Then, the young man in the first place walked forward and began to inject spiritual power into the pool.
Four bamboos floated up from the water.
The examiner nodded." Spirit Pressure Level Six, passed." Please go to the first door on the left and prepare to participate in the written test.”
The young man bowed happily and left with the wooden token.
Many commoners from Liuhun Street looked at him with envy. This meant that this young man would no longer have to live outside, and his standard of living would be greatly improved.
After a while, it finally rained.
The examiner looked up slightly and said in a clear voice,"Shigure Sugawa, inject your spiritual energy.”
Shigure did not waste any time either. With a single palm forward, he began to carefully release spiritual pressure and infuse it with spiritual energy.
Shigure could roughly guess what the upper limit of the spiritual bamboo test was based on the reactions of those people.
Shigure only needed to use one-tenth of his spiritual pressure to easily surpass this limit.
Shigure carefully injected his spiritual energy into the bamboo, and the bamboo began to stand up one by one.
Four, five, six, seven…
The people in the queue at the back widened their eyes. Just now, the others stopped at six.
However, Shigure's spiritual bamboo had no intention of stopping. The eighth bamboo slowly stood up.
The examiner's eyes immediately lit up. He looked at Shigure and immediately realized that Shigure seemed to be intentionally controlling the strength of the spiritual pressure.
"Examiner Qi Chuan, please don't have any misgivings. Inject your spiritual energy to your heart's content!”
He had already guessed that this candidate's standard might be extraordinary.
Shigure originally wanted to conserve some of his strength, but when he heard his words, he looked up.
Then, he directly increased the release of spiritual power.
"Pfft!"
A violent explosion sounded, and the ninth and tenth short bamboos quickly stood up.
Then, the ten spiritual bamboos began to tremble at the same time, emitting a pleasant whistle.
When Shigure saw this, he stopped in time.
The examiner's eyes instantly widened. The other examinees in line were also shocked and froze on the spot.
"Ten Bamboo is complete! First-class Spirit Pressure! This is the spiritual pressure of a captain!"
The examiner shouted excitedly.
When the Technology Development Bureau first produced these spiritual bamboos, the upper limit was the spiritual pressure of an ordinary captain.
Now, not only was Ten Bamboo standing, but it was also trembling. This meant that his spiritual pressure had even surpassed that of an ordinary captain!
Yan Sato, who was behind Shigure, was so frightened that he covered his mouth.
What was going on?
The person in front of her was completely different from the Shigure Ishikawa that she had met before!
Shigure saw that the examiner was stunned and asked,""May I ask what my assessment result is?"
The examiner reacted and said excitedly,"Student Qi Chuan, first-class Spirit Pressure! You don't have to take the written test anymore. You can directly enter the Spiritual Academy to cultivate!!”
As he spoke, he handed over a black wooden token with both hands. This wasn't a proof of passing the spirit assessment, but a proof of admission.
His attitude was extremely respectful because he knew that the youth opposite him would be an existence at the level of a captain!
Shigure took it and heard the examiner continue,""You only need to bring this wooden token and head to the academy's registration office from the right door.”
"Alright, I'll do it. Thank you for your advice." Shigure bowed politely in thanks.
After all, he had lived in the Xichuan family for three years, so he knew a little about noble etiquette.
Shigure turned around and looked at Yan Sato. He smiled and said,""Good luck."
Then, he turned around and walked to the third exit on the left.
It led directly to the academy's registration office.
Although his back was facing them, Shigure could feel countless gazes on his back.
Discussions came from behind.
"You haven't even entered school, but your spiritual power is already so strong. How terrifying!”
"Someone from the Xichuan family…a low-level noble. I didn't expect such a genius to appear.”
"Even the descendants of the four great aristocrats can't do it!”
"Is this guy a monster…"
