Please don’t retranslate from my English version and don’t repost in Wattpad for your ‘offline’ reading pleasure.

The exam will go on for 3 days. The interview will start on the 12th, and the written examination will be starting on the 14th and 15th.

After school on the 11th, Su Ling went to the fragrance bar. He went to the spiritual plant shed to see the spiritual plants and to prepare for his exam the next day. When he came out of the shed, Nalu kept talking around him, "It doesn’t matter if the interview result is not ideal. You will achieve excellent results in the written test. Even if you can’t, you still can repeat another year."

Su Ling couldn't help laughing and replied, "I know, Uncle Nalu. I told you these words before."

Nalu looked at him, said nervously, "I'm just afraid that you might not be able to accept the result."

Rubbing his wrist, Su Ling can see that his wound has recovered, but a scar remained. "I won't." Then he laughed, his smile was bright.

Nalu stared at him for a while, and finally relaxed, "I will treat you dinner after the exam."

Su Ling accepted the offer without hesitation. "Okay."

When Su Ling returned to the villa, he saw Gu Liheng, who had been busy recently, sitting on the living room sofa. He ran over and asked with a smile, "Are you finished with your works?"

Gu Liheng: "No, not yet." Then he took out a light blue gourd-shaped Cold Moon Sachet and handed it to Su Ling. "Your interview is tomorrow, right? Don’t put too much emphasis on the results."

Su Ling laughed, does he look that vulnerable to him? He took out the sachet he gotten from Gu Liheng previous from his backpack and said, "I still have this. Plus, all of the attendants are Omega, I have no use for it."

Gu Liheng still stretched out his hand at Su Ling, "The effectiveness of the sachet will gradually weaken over time. And because of the large number of Omegas, there will be a lot of Alpha waiting outside the testing location."

Su Ling thought about it and took the sachet, "Thank you." His eyes curved up as he added, "Don't worry about me; I am prepared." He is prepared for the worst, even if the interview result is zero in the end, he will be able to remain peaceful.

…

At 8 am on the 12th, the villa driver sent Su Ling to the interview location - the spiritual plant division association square. The exam only starts at 9 am, but there are already many cars on the road near the examination room at 8 am. As the car stopped at a red light, the air felt stuffy, so Su Ling lowered the car window and looked out. On the right was a very gaudy red convertible sports car. The man in the car looked sturdy, obviously an Alpha. He was wearing a pair of sunglasses and seemed to be quite handsome too.

"Ah! You guys see that? What a beautiful Omega!" The man soon noticed Su Ling and waved at him. At the same time, he turned his bracelet towards Su Ling, so that his friends in the communication screen could see him as well.

Su Ling glanced at the holographic screen above the man’s bracelet and decisively closed the car window. The material of their car window is the most common one on the market. You can see the outside from the inside, but people outside cannot see what’s inside the car. The man waved his hand at Su Ling’s direction and shouted a few words loudly. Su Ling ignored him and shifted slightly to the middle of the seat and stared forward. Their car started moving again, and he found that many of the cars on the same road were Alpha. Most of them had their car windows or hood opened, and one could see their identity at a glance.

At the examination site, there is a security guard at the entrance. A large area at the gate was enclosed, and a group of tall Alpha stood outside the fence.

Su Ling: "..." His male god is right; there are a lot of Alpha here.

He thanked the driver and got off. As he walked towards the entrance of the examination site, he could sense many eyes on him. Su Ling turned open his bracelet, verified his identity as a candidate, and entered the examination hall. Behind him, a noisy discussion is going on, and some people shouted words like ‘Pretty Omega’. Pretending that he didn’t hear it, Su Ling walked to the standby room in area 003.

When he arrived, many Omegas were already there. After he entered, he felt a lot of inquiring eyes. Su Ling looked over and saw several familiar people who should be in the same class as him. However, he is unfamiliar with anyone except with Lin Meng, so he did not say hello. He went to sit down on the seat, labeled with his exam number. Although many people believe that it is impossible for him to pass the interview because of the smell of his pheromone, Su Ling still wants to join. He did not know the specific content of the interview and was quite curious.

Every year, the assessment of the interview is different, but the general direction will not change, subject to the professional qualities required by the spiritual plant major. The interview is equivalent to checking in advance whether the student is capable of studying this major. After all, there are some professions where hard work won’t pay off; you will also need talents.

This year, there are more than 1,500 Omega students enrolled in the spiritual plant department. The testing site is divided into 3 areas. Lin Meng is in area 001, and he is in area 003. At 9 am, the standby room is already full, it was quite lively with more than 500 Omegas were staying together. Only then Su Ling realized that Zhao Qi is in the same area as him. Zhao Qi’s expression didn't look good when he saw him, but he didn't take the initiative to find trouble.

Three examination proctors walked into the standby room, and the chief proctor seriously announced the rules of the examination room before explaining further about the content of the examination.

"You will take a total of 3 exams. After the first exam is done, you will proceed onto the next one after a short time for adjustment. The content of the exams in each area is different. The exam sequence in your 003 area is 003, 001, 002. Other areas will have different exam sequence. During the examination, all candidates' communication function will be restricted so that no questions will be leaked."

"The total score of the three exams is 100, the test score of the 003 area is 40, and the score of the other two areas is 30 each. The minimum score to pass is 60. The score will be announced on the 16th, together with your written test score."

After the chief proctor finished speaking, his eyes swept across the group of candidates, "Do you understand my explanation? If there is anyone who doesn't understand, you can raise your hand to ask."

The audience was quiet.

A light smile appeared on the chief proctor's face as he said, "Very good. The exam for area 003 will start now. The content of the exam is harvesting raw materials from spiritual plants provided to you, and the score evaluation is the time used, the quality and quantity of the raw material."

After the proctor finished speaking, he raised his hand above his head and clapped once. Instantly, the wall on the right side of the standby room opened from the middle to the sides. A large field of spiritual plants was revealed behind the wall. Beta security and staff were standing around the flower field. There was a lot of exclamation from the group of candidates.

The chief proctor said, "Here are all Grade E spiritual plants, all spiritual plants were cultivated from the same batch, and their state is similar. Now, according to your exam number, walk out in turn, follow the staff's guidance, and stand next to the plant assigned to you."

More than 500 candidates were divided into 11 long lines, and they walked to the spiritual plant in turn. In front of Su Ling is a Grade E camellia, he looked around and saw that his row is all Camellia.

The proctor continued, "Now, candidates who are dissatisfied with the allocation of your spiritual plant, you can come forward to exchange to another plant that is most compatible with your pheromone. We allow the exchange of the spiritual plant to achieve the fairest result."

Many candidates raised their hands, and the staff quickly inputted the data and arranged for the exchange. After the exchange is done, the chief proctor repeated the inquiry again. No one raised any objections, so he announced, "The test starts now, and you have 40 minutes." The moment he finished his words, the two deputy proctors turned on the timers respectively. All candidates made the same action at the same time, that is removing their isolator.

Su Ling soon smelled a variety of fragrances. Some were faint, and some were thick, although some were so light that it could almost be neglected, but none were as bad as him. He reached out and touched the Camellia’s leaves. The Camellia shook its leaves up and down, and its petals curled up around his fingers, releasing a slight fragrance. Su Ling hesitated and decided to try again. He took off his isolator, and controlled the release of his pheromone, wanting to release a hint of smell. However, when the smell emanated, panic hit him one after another. At the same time, the candidates' exclamation, disgust, and anger could be heard.

"Smelly!"

"Aiya, why are you curled up together?!"

Su Ling glanced around and quickly reattached his isolator. All the flowers he saw had their petals closed up, and their leaves were shivering.

"Teacher, it's him. He is smelly and polluted the air of the examination hall!" Zhao Qi pointed to Su Ling.

It was the proctor’s first time to encounter this kind of situation. His expression was slightly serious in front of Su Ling, but Su Ling's attitude was very good as he apologized, "Teacher, I am sorry, I just want to give it a try."

"Try what, so stinky, how could any spiritual plant be willing to provide raw materials?"

"This time, our performance time is forced to be extended, will it affect our score?!"

"Such bad luck, to get into the same examination hall with him."

Various accusations came one after another. Su Ling felt sorry as well, but the Camellia’s attitude makes him feel hopeful. He looked at the proctor and said sincerely, "I'm really sorry. In order not to affect the exams for the rest of the students, I will give up on this exam. To be fair, the exam should start again."

The prosecutor's face eased up, and his expression revealed some sympathy. After confirming that Su Ling had given up the exam, he asked the staff to take Su Ling to the waiting area and announced that the exam would be restarted. The candidates who initially had a lot of complaints looked better now. The staff started the air purification system, measured the air quality three times with an air measuring instrument, and recorded it in a file. Only then the proctor announced for the exam to start again.

Su Ling stood aside, observing the movements of the nearest candidates and comparing the differences in how they harvest the materials. The proctors and staff would glance at him from time to time, worried that he can’t bear the sadness. Seeing him acting so calmly, they made a better impression on him.

5 minutes later, the candidates gradually completed the exam, and Zhao Qi was also very fast, ranking 9th. When he left the flower field, he raised his eyebrows proudly towards Su Ling. 40 minutes later, the exam is over. Some of the students who finished late inevitably showed disappointment, but after seeing Su Ling's calm expression, their mood improved a lot. There were also sympathetic candidates patting him on the shoulder, "Good luck."

Su Ling smiled, "En, you too."

Leaving area 003, they moved to the 001 area for the second test. The content of the second test measures plants affinity. They are still using grade E spiritual plants, and you can choose to exchange it as well. The spiritual plant is placed on a table equipped with a spiritual plant aroma detector. Within half an hour of the test, the highest concentration of fragrance recorded by the detector will be the assessment value.

As soon as the chief proctor finished speaking, the examinee said, "Teacher, I want to stay away from him."

Zhao Qi pointed at Su Ling and said, "Teacher, I propose to ban him from taking exams."

This proposal was echoed by other candidates as well, "Yes, how could such smelly pheromone pass the exam? Just make him give up directly."

The proctor looked at Su Ling, Su Ling said, "Teacher, I won't give up the exam, but I promise not to take off the isolator."

His affinity does not require pheromones!

The proctor said seriously, "If you violate the rules and disrupt the order of the examination room,
even if you want to restart, your score will be invalid.”

Su Ling's tone is sure, "I will not violate the rules."
