However, the simpler it is, the less anyone dares to be careless or cheat. Perhaps the codex's artifact spirit is watching in the shadows, not only testing their fundamental knowledge, but their character as well?
Therefore, the four examinees were particularly honest, earnestly completing the first test.
After the examination, there was no teacher to grade the papers; instead, the examinees had to put the test papers back into the Refining Artifact Creatures themselves. In just a short while, the scores of all four were revealed. Although there were differences in the scores, all of them passed the first test successfully.
The difficulty of the first test was not high because these were all ancient questions from seven or eight thousand years ago. As times are advancing, basic education is also continuously innovating, and the difficulty will only increase. Nowadays, as long as one is a long-term practitioner of the Sword Dao and Formation Dao, most should be able to pass.
