Judging from the buildings on Saint-Freux Street, it looks like an ancient European city. Even if you look at any wall, you can feel a sense of Western beauty from the mysterious carvings on it.
Fang Xiaoling looked at the trees on both sides of the street, which looked a bit like coconut trees in the tropics. There were colorful flowers blooming in the flower beds beside the road, and she couldn't even name them.
Seeing Fang Xiaoling looking around, Jiang Tongtong couldn't help laughing. Isn't this just a country bumpkin entering the city?
She patted Fang Xiaoling on the shoulder and said, "Hey, stop looking.
The reason why I brought you here is because I don’t want other candidates to hear the secret that follows.
You have to listen carefully. "
"Ah!" Fang Xiaoling came back to her senses. This street should be the closest street to the Tower School, but even if she looked at the Tower School from a distance, it seemed that it was foggy over there, and she couldn't see clearly what it looked like inside.
"Ouch, it's really troublesome. No matter how long you look, you won't be able to see it. No one can see what's inside the Tower School except the people inside the Tower School." Jiang Tongtong looked around and lowered her voice and said, "Although every time The questions in the first exam at Tower School are all different, but the basic routines are the same.
Do you know why I call you shortlisted candidates cannon fodder?
It’s not that your abilities are not strong enough. In fact, many of the candidates who were shortlisted from the audition have traveled through more than a dozen or even hundreds of lives before coming here. Are they rich enough in experience? Some have even been magicians, which is equivalent to being exposed to the knowledge of telekinesis in advance.
But no matter how many times you have traveled through time before, it is useless. If you want to pass the admissions examination of Tower School, you need two words - cognition. "
"Cognition?" Fang Xiaoling raised an eyebrow, "But if the candidates who are shortlisted from the audition have traveled through so many lives, their cognitive level should not be bad, right?"
"I knew you would ask this. Time is tight, so I'll keep it brief." Jiang Tongtong said proudly, "Actually, it can be summed up in one sentence: There is no way to do things, and there is no result even if you are exhausted.
The purpose of enrolling students at Tower School is to screen out young people with four talents and hope that they can contribute to the Tower in the future.
So although the first exam is a written test, you have to remember two key points:
1. The tendency when choosing one of the four factions must be strong. The stronger the tendency, the higher your score will be..."
"Wait a minute!" Fang Xiaoling interrupted Jiang Tongtong and asked, "What do the four factions mean? How can it be considered a strong tendency?"
"Oh, yes, it's really my fault that I didn't explain it clearly. After all, you were shortlisted in the audition and don't know anything." Jiang Tongtong glanced at the clock on the triangular top of the building across the street, and said faster, "It's the science and technology school, telekinesis There is no time to tell you the specific meanings of sect, Qi gathering sect, and spiritual cultivation sect. You will learn them when you enter the pagoda school in the future.
All you need to know is that these four factions represent your talents, and Tower School has ways to detect them. However, in the first exam, a questionnaire will still be issued for everyone to answer the questions on their own.
The purpose is to test your understanding of yourself and the firmness of your three views.
If a person's cognition and talent are in conflict, it will be difficult to achieve great things.
To put it simply, let me ask you, what is a rainbow? "
"I learned this when I was a kid. It's probably an optical phenomenon. When sunlight hits water droplets in mid-air..."
"Stop!" Jiang Tongtong interrupted her and said, "I'll ask you again, what is a soul?"
"The soul...should be the true self, right?" Fang Xiaoling replied through her own experience, "The body is like the residence of the soul, but no matter which body it is in, as long as it is my soul, then I am still me."
"So you can't get a high score." Jiang Tongtong said, "The score is based on the comprehensive score of your answers to each question. If your answer to the first question is an optical phenomenon, that is scientific thinking.
But the answer to your second question has become spiritualism again. This is the so-called weak tendency.
What are your three views?
How do you view the world?
During the audition, the tower allows you to travel through time and time again. This is actually to allow you to make a summary of yourself.
It doesn’t matter what the world is like.
What matters is what you think it looks like. "
"I think?" Fang Xiaoling frowned slightly. Why does this Tower School exam involve philosophical issues? What's the point?
"It's still the same example of the two previous questions. If you want to get high scores, you can either answer the first question: The rainbow is a reality of the soul's attitude towards the world. Whether it exists and the meaning of its existence depends on whether my soul is how is it like.
This is the perfect answer given by a senior from a spiritual school last year.
Or you still answer the optical effect for the first question, but for the second question, you need to change the answer to:
The soul is a kind of brain wave. After leaving the body, it can exist in the free wave layer. Brain waves can control the body, and the so-called 'soul reincarnation' is only the result of brain wave transfer data.
In short, humans have no soul or self. It is only the data of the physical image before the inertia of brain waves is generated that we can see that the images of soul and body are basically the same. In fact, brain waves can also stay on the body of animals. Even an artificial brain created by technology, as long as it is perfect enough, can generate new brain waves and form a new, so-called soul. "
Fang Xiaoling was stunned when she heard this. She had to say that this Jiang Tongtong was really powerful, and it all seemed to make sense.
Jiang Tongtong was very satisfied with the expression on Fang Xiaoling's face at this time. She explained with more interest: "This is the perfect answer for the science and technology school. Do you understand now? Try to keep the three views consistent when answering the question. If you know only a little about science, , no matter how simple the question is, don’t use science to answer it.”
"I understand, but there are still two factions? What about the Qi Gathering faction and the telekinesis faction?"
"Oh, why are you so stupid! The principles are the same. The Qi Gathering School relies on nature. Rainbows are paintings created by nature after the storm.
The telekinesis sect is also simple. Isn't it the concrete result produced by the gathering of human consciousness? Everyone thinks there will be a rainbow after the rain, so there will be. If everyone doesn't think there will be a rainbow, the rainbow will not appear. "
"Uh...it sounds like telekinesis is a bit like spiritualism."
"Don't look down on the telekinesis sect. Although there are very few people who graduate from the telekinesis sect every year and have achieved great results, it is said that there is a veteran of the divine realm in the tower who is from the telekinesis sect." Jiang Tongtong suppressed her voice. Even lower, "If your mind power is powerful, you can really create everything with your thoughts, just like the Creator!"
For some reason, Fang Xiaoling thought of Wang Chenyu, the devil of Bingso Continent, and hoped not to cause trouble to Roland and the others on Carnival Island.
