Monster Hunting High School

Monday, January 5th.

On the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month, there is a slight cold.

It is appropriate to accept gifts, ask for names, offer sacrifices, and get married;

Taboo, opening of market, burial, tomb repair.

None of the appropriate taboos are related to exams. It does seem to be a good day for exams - metaphysically speaking, this day is fair to everyone. At the very least, no one will perform abnormally due to their sensitive constitution or taboos. .

This day is the day when the first final exam of Kuyu College of First University begins.

Early in the morning, the atmosphere in the school had become extremely tense.

From Feiyuan where morning classes are done, to the cafeteria where breakfast is taken, to the bluestone path under the tree-lined road, every passing figure has hurried steps and expressionless face; or they have their heads lowered, holding small pieces of paper in their hands. , muttering words, trying to make one last struggle before entering the examination room.

This situation makes Zheng Qing feel mixed.

Fortunately, everyone's attention is on the exam, and they will naturally pay less attention to him, the new 'Major Arcana-World', greatly reducing his external pressure.

What's worrying is that the nervousness of others deeply affected Zheng Qing. Originally, his mentality was relatively relaxed, but under the influence of other people, he unconsciously became nervous.

Like now.

Because the first exam was the written part of Charms, so early in the morning, he took the notes from the Charms class and started reciting the words. He didn’t even put them down while doing morning classes. He was even reciting the spells during breakfast. The international standards of the book and the principles of use of the Dharma book - only at this time will he feel a deep envy and jealousy towards Dr. Xiao Da.

In the entire dormitory 403, or in other words, in the entire astronomy class 08-1, perhaps only Dr. Xiao Da was able to use the law book to experiment with the subtle differences in the release of different spells before the written exam began.

"I really want to rip out your brains and stew them." said the young public-funded student.

Dr. Xiao glanced at him with empty eyes and reminded: "You are a pure-blooded human and do not have the ability of a zombie or a vampire... I don't think you can get good grades by eating my brain."

"In other words, if I eat, I can get good grades in the exam, right?" Dylan, who was eating with them in the cafeteria, asked with a smile.

Zheng Qing twitched his lips: "Isn't the exam method of your college fighting? What's the use of his brain... If you really have that idea, the elder's brain is more suitable for you than the doctor's brain."

Go eat Zhang Jixin’s brain?

Dylan grinned and said nothing. He would only do this if his brain was damaged. According to the Zhang family's inherited hot temper and protective habit, if Dylan really did something, his two beautiful little fangs would have been pulled out before he ate the stewed brains.

"Can we talk about something lighter while we eat?" Fatty Xin grabbed the red leather bun and took one bite after another. His mouth was full of oil, and he complained in a low voice, "I have no appetite for what you are talking about."

The other three people all looked at the fat man sideways, expressing deep doubts about his "no appetite" argument.

But watching Fatty Xin eat did make Zheng Qing a little bit more appetizing.

He couldn't help but follow the fat man and pick up a red leather bun on the plate - the meal on the day of the exam was also very particular - just like this red leather bun, which was the staple food for breakfast in the cafeteria today, with fillings made of bastards, The buns are wrapped in blood-red dough and served on a plate made of willow branches, six in a plate.

Baozi means blessing and is also called a 'lucky bag'; while a plate of six means good fortune.

Every student must eat at least one plate of lucky packets.

After all, this is a university for wizards, and occultism has always had a huge market among students. Rather believe in its existence than its non-existence, this is the unified attitude of all people when facing mysticism.

Even the master chefs in the school cafeteria will defend this tacit approach.

Although you cannot add Fu Ling Ling to porridge or soy milk, the master chefs in the cafeteria still carefully prepared a 'special' breakfast suitable for candidates.

In addition to ‘lucky packets’, there is also ‘lucky soup’.

The so-called "Fu Tang" is a small jar of indigo-colored viscous liquid. It looks like soy milk made from peas or raw monk beans mixed with unknown herbs, and it is soy milk that has not filtered out the residue.

"Fu Tang can help us neutralize our chaotic spirits... Before the exam, our spirits need to be in a very pure state... This state can increase the sensitivity of our souls, improve our reaction speed, and help us prepare to master the spell. Subtle changes in the process.”

When it comes to eating, Fatty Xin seems to be an artist, sitting at the dining table, explaining today's breakfast to his companions, and talking eloquently: "False seeds are the protagonist of blessings, bloody noodles are ancient elixirs... and this... Futang carries the blessings of countless candidates throughout history!”

It took a lot of effort for Zheng Qing to resist reminding the fat man that this morning's exam was for the written exam on Charms, not the practical subjects yet, so he didn't need to put in so much effort to 'purify' his spirit.

"The so-called 'Fu Tang' is actually a nutrient solution mixed with soy milk, egg white, rosemary, mint and Aralia grass. It can slightly improve your concentration and keep you awake." Dr. Xiao Da said in Listening to the side, he quietly explained to Zheng Qing.

At the end, he added: "Oh, by the way, if you don't have much confidence, I suggest you add some auxiliary ingredients to the soup... Many people like to add a few spoons of incense ash from Wenquxing Temple to it. It is said to be very effective... If You have no way, I can ask someone to help you get some from Atlas School."

As a college based on 'faith', Atlas College has always had no shortage of various gods.

Zheng Qing shook his head vigorously to express his attitude.

"If you have a way, you can buy some goods and sell them in D\u0026K." He seemed to remember something, and added: "Since the winter hunting, the school no longer requires everyone to hunt mice or carrion beetles, and the store's business has been Relatively sluggish.”

"Let's talk about that kind of thing after the exam." Fatty Xin interrupted the public-sponsored students' murmurings in a rough voice and emphasized: "The most important and only thing we need to pay attention to now is the exam!"

Zheng Qing shrugged and glanced at the breakfast in front of the fat man.

It can be seen that Fatty has great faith in the 'traditions' or 'recipes' that Xiao Xiao just mentioned. He even made reference to some popular sayings in modern occultism and reconfigured his breakfast according to his weight.

For example, the portion of the 'Fu Soup' placed in front of the fat man was three times that of other people's.

"Maybe you should prepare a urine bag before entering the examination room." Zheng Qing finally reminded the fat man.
