I Can See the Lines of Fortune - Chapter 38

Chapter 38: Crimson Moon Institution, See You

The procedure of the university entrance exam wasn’t complicated. In the morning, it was the written exams, and in the afternoon, it was the cultivation test.

If you passed your written exams and the cultivation test, you would be able to enter most of the force institutions.

However, the top 100 institutions were a little different. Besides passing your written exams and your cultivation test, you still needed to apply for the trials held by the institution you desired. You would only be able to enter the institution you chose if you passed its trial.

The initial cry trial was the most famous trial.

The location of Mo Xiaobai’s written exams was Moonlight Secondary School.

Very soon, Mo You, Mu Yuzhu, and Mo Xiaobai arrived at the entrance of the school.

The entrance of the school was packed with people. Today was an important day, so many parents chose to accompany their children to school today.

There were many parents encouraging their kids at the entrance. They all hoped that their children would get good results.

Mo You patted Mo Xiaobai’s shoulder, and said in a soft tone, “Don’t think too much. Finish your exam first. I think that Little Ran wouldn’t want you to fail the exams because of him.”

Mo Xiaobai nodded slightly. “Don’t worry, Dad. I know what I’m doing.”

Along the way, Mo Xiaobai’s emotions got much calmer. He thought about many things too.

Little Ran’s death was the same as those of the other victims in the past.

If he didn’t know that the killer in the precious murder cases was a shadow dog devil, if he didn’t know that it was a devil, he wouldn’t think so much.

But now, after the shadow dog devil died, another victim appeared…

The appearance of two devils was too abnormal. There had to be a mastermind behind everything.

Was it another devil?

Or was it someone from the hollow divine clans?

Or could it be other evil gods or devilish cults?

Mo Xiaobai wasn’t certain. However, he would do his best to find the culprit and take revenge for Little Ran.

He stopped thinking about these things. He smiled at Mo You and Mu Yuzhu so that they wouldn’t worry for him. Then, he entered his school.

Mo Xiaobai already knew where his exam would be held. It was in the classroom building for the year two students.

Mo Xiaobai quickly arrived in front of the classroom. There were two staff members wearing white uniforms from the Ministry of Education standing in front of the classroom.

Mo Xiaobai walked over and passed his identity card to them.

After they inspected it, he entered the classroom.

Mo Xiaobai’s theoretical knowledge was not bad. Hence, even though the paper this time was a little difficult, it was still acceptable for him.

He answered every question smoothly. The morning passed quickly as he took his exam.

The final written exam ended and the invigilator left.

The moment the invigilator disappeared, the classroom turned noisy. Some students were happy, while others were sad.

Mo Xiaobai listened to the sobs of a rabbit-lady who looked weak and delicate beside him. She cried so pitifully.

It was obvious that her performance wasn’t up to standard.

He got up and left the classroom. As he walked out, he heard many students gathering together and discussing the exam questions.

“The answer to this question must be the first option! If not, I’ll use my nose to eat noodles, the very spicy kind!”

“You will definitely eat the noodles! I will help you to mix the chili sauce! I guarantee that I will mix it properly! The right answer is the second option!”

“Did you do the question about the fundamentals of force mechanics?”

“Hmph… I don’t even understand that question! Do you understand it?”

“Huh? I did it. It was so simple.”

“… Bastard! Die!”

“…”

“…”

Mo Xiaobai walked on the path. At this moment, Meng You popped out from behind him, and smiled as he asked, “Xiaobai, how was your exam?”

“Not bad.”

Meng You looked at Mo Xiaobai curiously. “Why do I feel that you don’t look very well?”

Mo Xiaobai was surprised. He smiled, and replied, “Nothing.”

Meng You didn’t probe further. He continued in a proud tone, “I just managed to become a Force Warrior yesterday! I will definitely be able to enter one of the top 100 institutions. I plan to go to Moon Crease Institution. It’s closer to home. Mengyu plans to go to Moon Crease Institution too. Xiaobai, what about you? Do you want to join us?”

Mo Xiaobai smiled, and said, “Me? I plan to go to Crimson Moon Institution.”

Meng You was shocked. He froze on the spot and looked at Mo Xiaobai with a dazed look as he left.

Crimson Moon Institution of the North Green Region, one of the top three institutions.

Mo Xiaobai actually wanted to go to Crimson Moon Institution?!

***

Outside the school gates, many parents were straining their necks and waiting for their children to come out.

Mo You and Mu Yuzhu were among them too. When they saw Mo Xiaobai coming out, their eyes lit up, and they came to welcome him.

Mo You asked, “How is it?”

Mo Xiaobai nodded. “Not bad.”

Mu Yuzhu heaved a sigh of relief when she heard this. She smiled, and said, “Let’s eat some food before going to the central cultivation stadium in the afternoon.”

“Okay.”

Mu Yuzhu didn’t go back home and cook. The three of them looked for a restaurant to eat some food before proceeding to the central cultivation stadium.

The central cultivation ground was very close to the expedition association. It was an enormous cultivation area. There were gambling arenas and beast-fighting arenas inside. It was said that this stadium could fit close to 500,000 people.

The force cultivation test for all the students of Pingxi Town was held here.

When Mo Xiaobai, Mo You, and Mu Yuzhu arrived, there were already many people there. It wasn’t just students and their parents. Some passers-by came to take a look at the event, and there were people from the media too.

After all, the yearly university entrance exam was a hot topic too.

The entrance of the stadium was guarded by officials from the government. There were even members of the Peak of Cerulean guarding the place. They were wearing their blue uniform with white patterns on it.

Mo Xiaobai saw Wu Liang and his team members.

They looked exhausted. It was probably because another murder had occurred.

Wu Liang saw Mo Xiaobai too. Their gazes turned bright. Lin Qianqian even waved at Mo Xiaobai.

Mo Xiaobai nodded at them.

Mo You said, “Go in.”

Mo Xiaobai nodded. He passed his identity card to the staff for inspection. After confirming its authenticity, he entered the stadium.

There was a spacious main hall in the stadium. Many students were already there.

The moment Mo Xiaobai entered, a staff member standing at the door walked over.

“Hello, can you show me your identity card?”

Mo Xiaobai was stunned. He passed his card to the person.

The man glanced at the card, and returned it to Mo Xiaobai. He smiled, and said, “Mr. Mo Xiaobai, your inspection area is East Zone 1. You will start your test at 1.30 pm based on your student number. You can wait in East Zone 1.”

The staff member pointed at an area with rows and rows of seats. There were already some students sitting there.

Mo Xiaobai nodded and smiled. “Thank you.”

He took his identity card, and went to East Zone 1. He casually found a seat and sat down.

The moment he sat down, he saw someone who looked a little familiar not far away.

It was a handsome young night spirit man. He was sitting there with a few friends around him, and they were chatting with one another.

He was looking up slightly, and would nod occasionally.

The young man felt something and looked in Mo Xiaobai’s direction.

After seeing Mo Xiaobai, he turned back. He seemed to be looking down on Mo Xiaobai.

It was him…

Was he called Li Yushu?

He was still as arrogant as ever.

Mo Xiaobai didn’t expect him to be at East Zone 1 too.

However, Mo Xiaobai’s mindset was entirely different this time.

He retracted his gaze and stopped looking at the young night spirit man.
