Chapter 153 The Miraculous Examination Hall (1)
As soon as Dong Qianyue was transported into the new world, before she could even call out to Yingying, a mechanical female voice echoed in her mind:
The constantly ringing countdown meant that Dong Qianyue had no time to look at her attribute panel or the storyline.
Dong Qianyue looked up and scanned the exam subjects floating in front of her: Chinese, Mathematics, English, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Politics, History, Geography, Physical Education, Art, and Music.
There are twelve subjects in total that match high school curriculum. Although the current situation is unclear, it can be preliminarily determined that they are related to high school. After all, no university would actually cover all twelve courses.
Besides, that's not how university mathematics is called; there's also advanced mathematics and calculus, okay?
As for junior high school, I'm sorry, even if you study physics and chemistry in junior high, you won't study biology, okay?
Of course, these complaints only flashed through Dong Qianyue's mind for a moment.
Time was of the essence for Dong Qianyue. Just before the countdown reached zero, she quickly said, "Chinese!"
Because she hadn't read the plot, Dong Qianyue didn't know which of the original owner's twelve subjects was the strongest.
Furthermore, it is unclear whether the historical, geographical, biological, and political background of this world will be the same as Dong Qianyue's own world, or whether the development in mathematics, physics, and chemistry will be the same.
Given Dong Qianyue's current physique, she's probably terrible at sports. As for art and music, it's unknown whether the original Dong Qianyue had any talent, but she certainly didn't have any artistic talent at all.
In conclusion, Chinese is the safest choice among all options.
The scene before her changed, and Dong Qianyue found herself in a courtyard filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers. In the southeast corner of the courtyard stood a small pavilion, and the bluestone path beneath her feet led directly to the pavilion. However, instead of walking over there, she turned around and looked behind her.
Regardless, first, create a good environment for yourself and work hard to get more information. This is something Dong Qianyue learned from Yang Linxin.
The countdown continued, and Dong Qianyue had no time to reminisce about the past. She slightly furrowed her brows and continued to survey this strange place.
As the bright red countdown in her eyes ticked away, Dong Qianyue looked around the courtyard.
There is a small stone bridge on the north side of the courtyard, with willows swaying on both banks and many plants and flowers. There is also a lake not far from the stone bridge.
Dong Qianyue quickly arrived at the small stone bridge, which was only three feet long and one foot wide, exceptionally small. Calling it a bridge would be an understatement; its function was far from that of a bridge!
Under the bridge is a dry, man-made irrigation ditch, no more than two feet wide, with some bumps and scratches on the moss on both sides.
Dong Qianyue looked ahead at the small stone bridge and sure enough, there was a small wooden gate at the junction of the canal and the lake.
Looking at the surroundings, Dong Qianyue couldn't help but recall a scene from her previous world.
Unconsciously, Dong Qianyue murmured, "Floating wine cups on a winding stream..."
Congratulations to the candidate for successfully completing the first question.
As soon as the system voice fell, day turned into night in an instant. The candlelight flickered, and the sound of a trickling stream filled the air. Before long, the canal was eight-tenths full, and the wooden gate was reinserted by a pair of delicate hands painted with nail polish.
The owner of the jade hand, dressed in a long blue robe, knelt on the small stone bridge. Her hair was styled in a bun, secured only by a gold hairpin inlaid with pearls.
As people took their seats on both sides of the canal, the once empty banks were now almost full of people.
Almost because there was still an empty seat.
As the woman in the green dress placed the dishes and drinks from the tray into the specially made dragon boat on the water, and with a gentle push, the banquet began.
Dong Qianyue looked at the countdown that started jumping again above her head, thought for a moment, and quickly sat down in an empty seat.
As Dong Qianyue took her seat, the previously lively and joyous banquet, with its flowing wine cups and elegant verses, suddenly fell into a frozen silence. Dong Qianyue heard the system's voice:
"The spring breeze in February is like scissors, the frost-covered leaves are redder than the flowers in February, the grass grows and the orioles fly in February, fireworks in March go down to Yangzhou, the flowers in April have all faded, people are busy in May, after all, the West Lake is in the middle of June, the Hall of Eternal Life is on the seventh day of the seventh month, the autumn wind is high and the wind is howling in August, the snow flies in the northern sky in August, and when autumn comes, it is the eighth day of the ninth month."
Dong Qianyue rattled off a string of poems containing the month from her elementary, middle, and high school textbooks without even taking a breath.
As Dong Qianyue prepared to move on to the third question, the once quiet banquet became noisy again.
A scholar in a silver-gray long robe slapped his thigh and angrily said, "You, Wen Kai, are you trying to stop us from enjoying the feast? You always manage to steal the food and the exam questions!"
The scholar, dressed in a light green long robe, stood up and bowed apologetically to everyone present, saying, "I'm sorry, I'm also extremely hungry."
The scene before me has returned to the original white space.
Candidates are required to complete a word chain game within ten seconds. The more correct answers, the higher the score. Keywords will now be drawn.
In front of Dong Qianyue was a disc engraved with the numbers 1-12. The disc spun rapidly and finally stopped at the number 2.
The instant she saw the pointer stop at 2, Dong Qianyue blurted out: "Two dragons playing with a pearl, the pearl is round and smooth, it nourishes things silently, its sound is like a great bell, it is full of talent and beauty, it is beautiful inside and out, it is famous at home and abroad, it is famous all over the world, its whereabouts are unknown, it is clear, a pale-faced scholar, life goes on, they are closely related, they beat the dog behind closed doors, the dog is desperate..."
Time's up, exam over, system evaluation in progress.
Before Dong Qianyue could even finish saying "a cornered dog will jump over the wall," the countdown had already ended.
Dong Qianyue let out a soft breath. The fast pace of answering questions had made her mentally tense to the point of being almost unbearable.
A blue-covered, thread-bound book appeared out of thin air in front of Dong Qianyue, and the system's mechanical voice sounded:
Just as Dong Qianyue picked up the thread-bound book, the mechanical voice sounded again: "Candidates have received their exam preparation materials. You will be teleported to the girls' dormitory."
Without feeling any discomfort, Dong Qianyue appeared in front of a building.
The building in front of me is a simple, ordinary seven-story building with a blue and white exterior. At the entrance on the first floor are the emergency exit and elevator, and there is a place that looks like a dormitory manager's office, but it is much smaller than a real dormitory manager's office.
Before Dong Qianyue could even take a second look, a small, oval-shaped robot glided out of the office.
It's no wonder the dormitory manager's office is smaller than the real one; it's a robot office, so all it needs is a place to charge it.
Dong Qianyue was still completely confused about the current situation, but now that the game system had teleported her to the dormitory, it was time to check in.
“Examinee…” The robot’s round head moved up and down, its high-tech glasses emitting a faint blue glow.
"Congratulations to Dong Yinmiao, a student from Class 8, Grade 3 of Jinglan No.1 Middle School, for passing the entrance exam."
As the robot finished speaking, a pair of large red flower balls suddenly appeared on its mechanical arm.
Excited emoticons appeared on the robot's high-tech glasses, and it was shaking the flower ball with great energy.
"In the days to come, please strive to pass every exam. Now I will introduce you to the rules of life in the exam center."
As the robot finished speaking, the emoticons and flower balls disappeared, and a light blue screen appeared in front of Dong Yinmiao.
The screen was densely covered with relevant information in white Song typeface, and as Dong Yinmiao read to the end of the article, the screen refreshed with new information.
Dong Yinmiao tried it out, not reading carefully, but staring directly at the last message, but the screen content did not refresh.
It seems the system refreshed the information only after detecting that the candidate had carefully read it.
After carefully reading all the information, Dong Yinmiao gained a better understanding of her current situation.
Although she still had no idea what this so-called exam center was, or why everything seemed so futuristic, at least Dong Yinmiao knew what her objective was within it.
It's about completing exams in twelve subjects.
As for how the test will be conducted, you'll only find out once you're actually in the exam room.
"Okay, I got it. I'm going to study in the reading room on the third floor now." Dong Yinmiao said, then stepped into the elevator and pressed the number 3.
When faced with the choice between forming a study group in the reading room first or going to the supermarket to check prices, Dong Yinmiao chose to go to the reading room first.
As the elevator ascended, Dong Yinmiao didn't rush to call Yingying, but instead carefully reviewed the information she had just received.
First of all, all of this is indeed related to the "college entrance examination". The three subject examinations that were just started were a screening process for all candidates.
The time for candidates to enter the exam after completing the exam varies, which is why Dong Yinmiao did not see anyone else at the entrance of the girls' dormitory.
Secondly, the boys' dormitory is located behind the girls' dormitory, and the boys' and girls' dormitories share the basement, first floor, second floor, and third floor.
The basement level is the canteen, providing three meals a day for examinees. Meal times are fixed, and latecomers will not be served.
The first floor is a supermarket where candidates can purchase all kinds of food and daily necessities.
The second floor is a learning area where candidates can go to the corresponding subject office to find a teacher to learn or upgrade their skills.
The third floor is a reading room where candidates can freely enter and study in groups.
Next are the so-called Examination Authority regulations: Candidates must take an exam once a week, either individually or in a study group. (The Examination Authority encourages candidates to form study groups, with a maximum of six people per group.)
If a candidate fails the exam, they will have one chance to retake the subject. If they fail the retake, they will be disqualified by the examination board.
Finally, all expenses incurred by candidates at the examination institute are settled based on their examination points. Once candidates have completed all subjects and passed the college entrance examination, they can return to reality.
