Arthur Sunny, a second-level holy light sorcerer, minored in fighting.
Born into a grand ducal family.
It was born into the world with the expectations of everyone.
[Glorious Lion Cub] was the title bestowed upon him by the goddess on the day he was born.
The family of the Border Grand Duke has a long history. There have been generals and marshals in the family history. The family is rich in martial virtues, but it lacks culture. There has never been a Pope of the Glorious Church. Naturally, the Pope should practice glorious magic.
Thus, Arthur was trained as the future of the family. He learned the knowledge of the Holy Light since he was a child. Under the influence of the elders in the family and the instruction of the famous teachers, he lived up to everyone's expectations and learned to do the splits.
Rather than magic, he prefers to pick up a sword and chop people.
This is very handsome.
'Knights are better than mages' - this has always been his creed.
Ansu didn't want to agree to Arthur's request, after all, he was already too rich.
Moreover, as a big brother Xianzong with excellent qualities, a noble man who has gotten rid of vulgar tastes, and a genuine academic master, what An Su hates most is cheating.
Mainly, I hate when others cheat.
Not only will he not help cheat in tomorrow's written test.
He would even go crazy messing with the mentality of other candidates.
This idea is actually similar to Miss Enya's idea of killing everyone, but it is more conservative.
As long as his competitors don't perform well in the exam, Ansu will be the first.
"Arthur, don't get excited."
At this moment, a calm and elegant voice interrupted their conversation.
"Don't lose the dignity of a nobleman."
This is the second roommate.
The man was really elegant, wearing glasses with gold rims, a snow-white robe, and holding a pot of black tea in his slender white hands. His temperament was aloof and proud, and he looked quite high-class.
[Moonlight of the Goddess]—this is his title.
Lister Muen, a second-level holy light sorcerer who minored in water magic, also came from the border.
He is the eldest son of the Moon Family, the second oldest family in the border area.
At the same time, this person ranked second on the list of saints that the "Seaside Morning Post" most wanted to date, and the reason for being on the list was his clear temperament and independence from the world.
"We must compete fairly and not cheat." Liszt sipped his tea carefully. "This is the elegance and honesty of a saint, the noblest quality."
What Liszt valued most in his life was aristocratic reserve and saintly honor. He always paid attention to the style and art of speaking and doing things.
'Do things with style', this is what his father taught him.
This is a man who dedicated his life to elegance.
"So have you read?" Arthur asked him.
"No." Liszt answered elegantly and directly, even with a hint of pride in his tone, "I haven't read a single word."
"Then what are you proud of?" Arthur asked.
"If I read the book and see the question, the answer from the book will come to my mind."
Liszt calmly explained, "I will copy the answers I have prepared in my mind onto the test paper. Wouldn't that be cheating?"
“It’s not fair to other candidates, so I chose not to read a word.
This is not because I am lazy or don’t understand, but because the pride deep in my soul won’t allow me to do such a despicable thing as “reading a book to review”.
"As an honest and fair Saint, I cannot accept any cheating."
"What will you do during the exam?" Arthur asked again.
"The goddess will favor those who are honest and noble."
Liszt took another sip of tea elegantly, and spoke in a very high-class manner, "And my heart will respect the guidance of the goddess and choose the right path."
"I see." After hearing this, Arthur even thought about it, "Brother Lister, what you said makes sense!"
Isn't this just guessing
Watching the conversation between the two, An Suwei sighed.
At this moment, he inexplicably began to miss Cavens. They both followed the same script of a dandy young man from an aristocratic family, but Cavens actually acted quite anthropomorphically.
"Why are the three of us grouped together?" An Su asked.
"It's divided according to the districts, Boss Ansu."
Arthur began to address him as 'Boss'. "The three of us are all from the border city, and we all studied Glory, so naturally we were assigned to the same place."
Such a small border city has produced three talented people like us.
Ansu thought to himself. Then, Arthur continued to add,
"There were supposed to be four people, I don't know why Cavens didn't come."
It seems that the Vatican has kept the news strictly under wraps.
"He took a leave of absence from school." An Su replied.
Added in my mind: maternity leave.
"Haha, so that's it. Did you take a sick leave?" Arthur laughed.
“I guess so.”
Maternity leave is also considered sick leave.
"So when will his vacation end?"
"Usually it's ten months, but he's faster."
"It's been so long. Haven't you received the blessing and healing of the Holy Light?" Arthur said.
"Accepted, so he is faster."
An Su added in his mind: He will die of childbirth complications soon.
—
Nothing happened that night, and the entrance examination finally began.
The Parish of the Order Church is located on the third floor of the first tower, which is also the testing site for the written examination.
Only by walking in the Imperial Diocese during the day can you feel the grandeur and vastness of this place.
The brilliant golden sunlight shines through the dome of patchwork glass, casting spots of light on the quaint marble columns.
The stone pillars are engraved with a scale and a ruler, which are the symbolic symbols of the "Order Church" in the Faith of the Seven Gods.
The full name of the Church of Order is 'The Church of Order and Law', and its god is the goddess of order who is in charge of justice.
Due to its papal nature, its dioceses are often used as examination venues.
The enemy cult is the Church of Chaos, whose full name is 'Cult of Chaos and Ladder', and whose deity is the Mother Goddess of Chaos.
The third examination room of the Glorious Saints, room 301.
An Su observed the expressions of the other candidates. There were about sixty people in the examination room, but they all looked nervous. Some kept stamping their feet, some took out books to review, and most of them were silent, anxiously waiting for the exam to begin.
Time ticked by and steady footsteps were heard in the corridor.
The visitor was dressed in a snow-white priest's uniform, with the emblem of the Church of Order tattooed on his chest. The stigma on his left shoulder showed his position: priest.
He walked into the examination room with the examination paper in his arms,
"The exam is about to begin. Please put away anything that is not related to the exam. If you cheat, you will be disqualified as a candidate. I am the invigilator for this exam. You can call me Father Parsis."
"The exam lasts two and a half hours, please answer the questions carefully,"
The priest of order cut the seal on the exam papers, and another assistant helped him distribute the papers.
[Question 21: Please discuss the Druid Pea's magical hybridization experiment]
An Su got the test paper and turned to the last question, and he knew he had it.
'Mother and child', 'hybridization', 'transformation', 'dismemberment'.
That series of forbidden keywords reappeared in Ansu's mind, connecting the memories together.
Thank you dear Miss Enya!
An Su also reviewed the knowledge points tested in the other questions. Luo Jia's top scholar notes were very comprehensive.
The candidates around them all looked constipated, and it was obvious that they had also turned to the last question.
There was clear confusion and helplessness in his eyes.
The exam questions of the Glorious Church are not too complicated, and they even provide an exam outline. The vast majority of them are comprehensive liberal arts questions such as politics, history, policy essays, and spellcasting theory of the Glorious Church.
Except for the last question.
The last question was asked by the examiner. It was completely out of the examination syllabus and deviated to the extreme. It directly tested questions from other sects and accounted for a very high score.
For example, in the Glorious Church test last year, when I turned to the last question, [There are four types of threaded connections, namely bolt connections and stud connections. Please explain using the principles of alchemy]
This has even touched upon the realm of alchemy and the Mechanical Church!
What you get in this last question depends entirely on luck.
According to the examiner, the purpose is to cultivate well-rounded talents and to select the one most favored by the goddess.
If you are lucky and have learned similar knowledge points by chance, you can pass the exam.
If you are unlucky, it means that the goddess is not favored by you, so they will not accept you.
—To some extent, Brother Yueliang’s theory is indeed correct.
