Sun Mo didn't notice Bai Shuang's gaze. He was breathing deeply, adjusting his mental state.
Other than the study of spirit runes, Sun Mo's expertise in the art of spiritual beast control was also at the grandmaster-level. However, the Saint Gate assessed this examination separately. Also, from the looks of things, this subject was not mainstream at all.
There were five examiners. Moreover, in order to prevent the examinees from cheating, the specialties of these five examiners had no overlap with each other.
Because the higher the star-rank of the examination, the stronger the examinees would be. Sometimes, they cheated not because they wanted to get a high score. Rather, it was purely to show off their skill.
One must know that cheating under the eyes of examiners could be considered something brilliant, and one could brag about this for a very long time.
