Xu Yang discreetly observed his surroundings.

He saw several Qi Refining Realm Daoists rubbing their hands together, looking like they wanted to show off in the “written test” assessment, especially the Daoist sitting in front of him. He looked to be around fifty years old, wearing reading glasses, and had quite an air of a learned scholar.

This boosted Xu Yang’s confidence…

He thought that maybe he could copy the answers later.

Soon.

The examination papers were handed out.

Xu Yang was dumbfounded by what he saw…

What the fuck? The Daoists sitting in front, behind, and beside him all had different exam papers?

He composed himself and looked at the paper in his hands.

The first question on the paper was to silently write down the first chapter of the “Dao Te Ching.”

This was easy, Xu Yang knew it.

So he picked up his brush and wrote—

“The Dao that can be told is not the eternal Dao, The name that can be named is not the eternal name, The nameless is the beginning of Heaven and Earth, The named is the mother of the myriad creatures…”

The second question.

What is Zhengyi? Who is the main head of the Zhengyi Sect? What is the full name of the Zhengyi Sect? Who founded the Zhengyi Sect and when and where was it created?

This was also easy. Xu Yang thought for a moment and wrote—

“Righteous and free from corruption, unity without blemish, this is Zhengyi. The Celestial Grandmaster, Zhang Daoling, is the head of the Zhengyi Sect. The full name of the Zhengyi Sect is: the Way of the Mighty Zhengyi Alliance, founded by the Celestial Grandmaster Zhang Daoling in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.”

Question three: “Misfortune and fortune have no door, people summon it themselves, the reward for good and evil deeds follows like a shadow,” which scripture does this come from? Please explain the meaning and main points of this sentence.

Xu Yang twitched the corner of his mouth and silently looked at question four.

Question four: Briefly describe the Party’s basic policy on religious affairs.

Xu Yang: “…”

Question five: As a Daoist cultivator, catching ghosts is an essential course. How do you overcome psychological fear when catching ghosts?

Xu Yang’s eyes lit up!

I know this one!

He pondered for a moment and picked up his brush to write, “Actually, ghosts are not scary. As the saying goes, ‘Kindness begets cruelty.’ When facing ghosts, you must never be kind… The more evil you are, the more ghosts fear you. When your peachwood sword is just o.oi cm from a ghost’s throat, I believe any evil spirit would kneel on the ground to cry and beg.”

As for the remaining questions, they were a mixed bag, all from various Daoist Collection scriptures. Xu Yang didn’t know any of them, so he chose to hand in his paper early.

The Daoist from Zongsheng Palace collected the paper and said, “Mr. Xu, please go to the side hall to rest for a while. We have prepared vegetarian meals for all the Daoist friends in Zongsheng Palace… In the afternoon, there will be another assessment.”

Xu Yang knew about the afternoon assessment.

It was a “Talisman Drawing Test.”

After eating his vegetarian meal in the side hall and taking a nap, the afternoon quickly arrived, and Xu Yang returned to the examination hall. The test questions this time were all the same for everyone.

In the Zongsheng Palace, they gave out three types of Daoist talismans for the Daoist cultivators attending the “Daoist Skills Conference” to copy.

These three talismans were the “Heavenly Eye Talisman,” “Invisibility Talisman,” and “Wall-penetrating Talisman.” While these talismans were similar to those found in other Daoist sects, their drawing methods were slightly different.

Xu Yang received the three talismans and began copying them as he had seen them drawn.

Unexpectedly, his luck was extraordinary, and he managed to successfully draw the “Heavenly Eye Talisman” on his first attempt. The “Invisibility Talisman” was a bit trickier, taking four attempts to complete.

It took him three attempts to draw the “Wall-penetrating Talisman.”

In total, it took him 28 minutes.

Lifting his head, he noticed the other “candidates” were scratching their heads and pondering. Xu Yang thought, “These three talismans aren’t difficult… I’ve only been learning to draw talismans for ten days or so, and I can draw them. Why do they look like they’re constipated and having difficulty giving birth?”
