Lord of the Starry Sky

After leaving Penglai Sea and returning to Bidao City on the coast of Qingzhou, everyone said goodbye.

Luo Xihao returned to Jinjiang City where Longling University was located.

Qu Wei and Su Meng returned to Chang'an City where Xuanzhen University is located.

The school that Da Tou attends is in Wuyang City in the south.

Shen Jian originally planned to go to Jinghua City first.

He successfully obtained the ink jade coral that Fang Xiaoyu asked him to find and sent it to Fang Xiaoyu first.

This treasure is quite special. After being picked, it needs to be kept by a monk at all times to keep it warm, otherwise the spiritual energy will be lost, so it cannot be shipped by express delivery or other methods.

Shen Jian didn't care about this. The transportation was very convenient now. It wouldn't be troublesome for him to go to Jinghua City and hand it over to Fang Xiaoyu in person.

However, after contacting her, she discovered that some unreasonable child Fang Xiaoyu had actually gone into seclusion, and even left a message to Shen Jian. Even if Shen Jian was sent there now, she wouldn't be able to take care of her. So instead of bothering the two masters, she asked Shen Jian to take care of her for a while.

After the end of the month, she will leave seclusion.

Shen Jian didn't mind either. Anyway, if he got good grades and could participate in the Starfleet Joint Internship, he would have to go to Jinghua City to gather and set off.

Comparatively speaking, he was more curious about what happened to that legal lolita who suddenly had a fit and retreated into seclusion.

At this point, Shen Jian was fortunate enough to return to Tianhai City with Zhang Zhaoran.

As he said, in the next month, in addition to practicing on his own, he would review and prepare for the exam.

Shen Jian did not have to devote any special energy to the examinations of the martial arts department.

His usual practice alone was enough to pass the exam, and it was too late for the old dean to be satisfied with him.

As for Shen Jian's participation in the ship-controlling examination, it was eye-catching.

Students belonging to various majors in the naval warfare department couldn't help but comment when they saw this auditor taking the exam with them.

On December 27, after all the exams were over, everyone watched Shen Jian leave with mixed expressions on their faces.

"Xiao Dong, what's wrong? Didn't you do well in the exam?"

The girl left the classroom and walked in the corridor when she suddenly heard someone calling her. She looked back and saw Ouyang Xuan, a senior who she usually had a good relationship with, looking at her with concern.

Xiaodong said quickly: "Sister Xuan, I'm fine. I did okay in the exam. I should get good results. I just don't know if I can get into the top five."

"Great, then why were you so distracted just now? I passed you by and you didn't even seem to see me." Ouyang Xuan said with a smile.

"I'm distracted, I'm distracted." Xiao Dong said sheepishly.

"Little fool." Ouyang Xuan joked, but she turned her eyes and looked in another direction, a little surprised: "Shen Jian?"

Xiaodong followed Ouyang Xuan's gaze and saw Shen Jian disappearing on the other side of the corridor.

"He... took the exam for our ship-control department?" Ouyang Xuan asked after thinking for a while.

Xiaodong pouted: "Yes!"

"Is it because of him that you were distracted just now?" Ouyang Xuan observed Xiao Dong's expression and joked: "Are you attracted to him?"

"No, Sister Xuan." Xiao Dong said with a grimace: "I heard from people that Shen Jian from the martial arts department came to take our exam and also came for the starship joint internship during the winter vacation."

Ouyang Xuan's distant memories resurfaced in her heart.

She pretended to be calm and asked: "Is the news reliable? Maybe I just want to test the results of my practice."

"There should be nothing wrong. I heard that the head of our department specially allowed him to take the exam." Xiao Dong said with certainty.

Ouyang Xuan calmed down completely and said casually: "It seems that freshmen are only allowed to board ships for internship this year. How many places do you have?"

"Each major has five places. When the time comes, everyone will be dispersed and regrouped with Zhaochen and your senior class." Xiao Dong replied.

"Although there are only five places for a single major, looking at the entire department, it is actually quite generous. You don't have to worry, right?" Ouyang Xuan asked.

Xiao Dong snorted: "This Shen Jian took the exam together with our conducting major."

Ouyang Xuan said: "The exam is not just a written test, it requires practical operation of instruments and magic weapons. Finally, looking at the overall score, you have an advantage over Shen Jian."

As one of the two cradle of starship captains from the Yanhuang Federation, Tianhai University's Ship Command Department has a rigid rule for admission to the command major, which only recruits monks of the fourth level of boat soul and above.

Although the number is small, they are all elite. In many academic years, there are only single digits of students in this major in the entire grade.

However, this is a big year for the naval command major, with a large number of applicants and fierce competition.

But no matter how you say it, monks with the fourth-level boat soul talent will definitely have a much better advantage than those with the third-level boat soul talent in actual performance assessments.

That's why Ouyang Xuan said this when facing Xiao Dong.

"That's what I said, but that Shen Jian is now the banner figure of the school. It is obvious that not only the martial arts department, but also other school leaders and teachers think highly of him." Xiao Dong was worried: "Who knows if he will be given preferential treatment? Huh? Maybe if he gets a good score, he can get a spot."

Ouyang Xuan laughed dumbly: "Where are you thinking? Even if you want to give him preferential treatment, it is more likely to make an exception and add him as an extra person."

"That's not necessarily true. This internship is jointly with Zhaochen. It's not our Tianhai family that has the final say. The possibility of making an exception to add people is very low, right? It's more likely that the school has coordinated us internally." Xiao Dong still worried.

Ouyang Xuan shook her head: "You just think too much. If I follow your thinking, then if Shen Jian gets a high score in the exam, will he still suspect that the school deliberately cheated and got false scores in order to give him preferential treatment?"

"Uh..." Xiao Dong was a little embarrassed: "That shouldn't happen, right? I don't think Director Sun is that kind of person and will not allow such a thing to happen."

Ouyang Xuan gently hugged her and they walked together: "So the exam is over, so don't think too much about it. You will know when the results come out."

Xiaodong nodded.

So, three days later, on December 30, the day the test results were announced, besides his own score, Xiao Dong was most concerned about Shen Jian's score, not other influential figures in the department.

There are many people who have the same thoughts as her.

Xiao Dong breathed a sigh of relief when he discovered that he happened to be fifth in the conducting major.

Then, she found Shen Jian's name in the fourth place in the conducting major.

"Really or not?!" Xiao Dong was stunned.

It's still basic learning at the moment, so the talent level of the boat soul has limited impact.

But even so, when it comes to the actual testing of related magic instruments, in this subject, the fourth-level boat soul talent definitely has an advantage over the third-level.

On this basis, most of them still fail the Shen Jian exam?
