By asking the young teacher Sun a few questions, he already had a rough idea of his level.
To describe it in one sentence, it is just following the script.
Maybe he is very good at taking exams, but in terms of his profound knowledge, he is actually not as good as the village chief, Mr. Qian.
Yes, even though the village elder is nodding and groveling in front of the alliance officials, and his actions and so on are also cliché, this old man really has something.
Mark felt that he could study on his own in the future. If he didn't understand something, he could ask Old Man Qian directly, or he could use Old Man Qian's Elf Guide to look up the information.
Without thinking too much, Mark closed the book and asked: "Teacher Sun, you seemed to have mentioned in class before that in addition to the written test, the entrance exam for the Elf Academy also has a physical test and an elf affinity test. These two
What is a test?"
Sun Ting nodded and said: "I am about to explain this question to you. The entrance examination standards for elf academies in various places are different, but most of them are these three types of examinations, but the focus is different. In addition, some
The Elf Academy will also offer an additional course called Plant Identification. If you want to be admitted to those Elf Academy, you need to prepare in advance, and..."
Mark discovered something, interrupted Sun Ting and asked: "Isn't the Elf Academy a unified examination?"
Sun Ting shook her head and said: "Of course not. Elf academies in various places have different admission standards, and the content and focus of teaching are also different. For example, Riel Elf Academy tests comprehensive abilities, while Earth Elf Academy focuses on rocks and earth elements.
Elf content.
The examination times vary from place to place, but most of them are between September and November every year. If the entrance examination times do not conflict, it is also possible to apply for several elf academies at the same time.
As for the physical fitness test and elf affinity test you just asked about.
Being a trainer is a very hard profession. Not to mention climbing over mountains and ridges in the wild, even riding an elf will consume a lot of energy, so the physical fitness test is essential. Your body looks very strong. I guess you can pass the physical fitness test.
Not big.
In fact, not only you, but also other children in the village are basically no problem.
As for elf affinity, it is related to the efficiency of your elf training.
For example, with the same elf, some people can establish a good relationship with the elf and tutor the elf in training within a few hours, but some people spend several days and cannot effectively communicate with the elf, let alone train the elf. This represents your affinity with the elves.
For specific exams, if you have elves, you can show some of your bond with the elves and you will get extra points, but the main factor that determines the total score is the formal elf affinity exam.
Generally, the elf academy will prepare some wild elves, let you interact with these wild elves, and then give you scores."
Listening to Teacher Sun Ting's explanation, Mark kept nodding.
It seems that unlike the unified college entrance examination before he time traveled, the Elf Academy in the Kingdom of Shia is somewhat similar to the admissions examination of Japanese universities. The examinations of each university are independent of each other.
In fact, this enrollment model is very scientific in a certain aspect. Each elf college specializes in different fields, and the qualification requirements of the students it needs are naturally different.
As for the physical fitness test and the elf affinity test, Mark doesn’t think he has much problem.
First of all, physical fitness, although there is some suspicion of bragging, there is no doubt that if he cannot pass the physical fitness test, no one else will be able to pass it. After all, he is a fierce man who can borrow vines to continuously walk through the forest like Tarzan. As for elf affinity, as a spiritual master with the power to control spirits, communication with elves is probably not a problem.
As a result, the only thing left to decide his application for the Elf Academy was the written test.
Most of these books are conceptual knowledge that needs to be memorized by rote. As a senior small-town problem solver, Mark feels that he can almost gnaw through these books through a few months of self-study.
In other words, in three or four months, around this fall, he will be able to apply for the Elf Academy.
Thinking of this, Mark said: "Teacher Sun, can I study on my own instead of coming to school?"
"Don't come to school?"
Sun Ting's face was filled with astonishment.
Why did you suddenly stop coming to school while you were talking?
Sun Ting was just about to persuade, when she saw Mark spoke first: "Teacher Sun, I know this will make things difficult for you, but I think it will be more efficient if I study by myself. If you are worried, I have basically completed the self-study of "The Kingdom of Shia"
"Elf Encyclopedia (1)" and "Elf Encyclopedia of the Kingdom of Shia (2)", you can ask some questions to check my learning progress. During the self-study process, I will come back regularly to let you check my progress.
Is it okay to watch?"
Sun Ting frowned. Following Mark's words, she almost understood what Mark meant.
In a word, Mark thinks that it is better to teach by himself than to let her teach.
If she had just arrived in Qingxi Village a year ago, she would most likely have been offended by Mark's words and would have taught this ignorant boy a lesson.
But after more than a year of wasted time, she suddenly found that she had lost sight of it.
Maybe, as her father said, going to remote mountainous areas to teach is just her wishful thinking and self-impression...
Mark didn't realize how much his words had impacted the young teacher.
Not long after he made the request for self-study, Teacher Sun asked him two questions.
The two questions did not embarrass him. They were both relatively important contents in the book, and he spent a lot of space talking about them.
……
The first question: [Why do some elves awaken their characteristics innately, while some elves have to awaken their characteristics later in life? Here are a few examples of each.]
In fact, this question was also Mark’s doubt when he first came to this world.
When he first came to this world, the characteristics of the green caterpillar were not yet awakened, but in the Pokémon game, the characteristics of all elves are innately awakened.
After reading the textbooks these days, he now has a basic understanding of the reasons for this situation.
The characteristics of the elves are the same as the skills and moves of the elves, which are derived from the blood genes of the elves, and are generally divided into three categories.
One type is innate activation. As the name suggests, it is a characteristic that is activated innately.
This type of characteristics does not form specific characteristics on the elf's body, and many of them are related to the elf's character, such as Wei Li's [Perseverance] trait and Jigglypuff's [Victorious].
The second type is the acquired development type. The characteristics of this type are not activated innately. As the elf develops, specific characteristics will appear on the elf's body, thus awakening the characteristics, such as the green caterpillar's [scale powder], the Bulbasaur flower's [thickness]
Fat], Kuailong’s [Multiple Scales].
The last category is a comprehensive type. Depending on the elf's talent and genetic tendency, it is possible to awaken either innately or acquiredly, such as Charmander's [Fire] and [Power of the Sun] characteristics, Squirtle's [Riptide], [Rain]
Disk】Features.
……
Second question: [Explain the move learner, and the common ways and principles for elves to learn moves, and explain why Pikachu cannot learn the [Flame Jet] move]
In the Pokémon game, the move learner is shaped like a CD, which can help Pokémon learn the moves they can learn, and they can master new moves instantly after using them.
The move learning device mentioned in the textbook of the Kingdom of Shia is similar. It can awaken the moves and skills possessed by the elven bloodline genes and quickly awaken the skills and moves in the elven bloodline genes. The only difference is that the shape is not a CD.
In fact, other methods for letting elves learn skills and moves have similar principles.
Whether you let the elves learn the principles of moves, let the elves take the initiative to accept the moves, understand the moves, or use potions to stimulate them, there is no essential difference from using a move learner.
They are all designed to allow the moves and skills contained in the elven bloodline genes to be awakened more quickly and easily.
In contrast, if the elf does not have such skills and moves in its own bloodline genes, then no matter how it is learned, how it is used, or how it is stimulated by the move learning device, it is basically impossible to learn it.
This is also why Pikachu cannot learn [Flame Breathing], because there is no [Flame Breathing] gene in Pikachu's bloodline genes.
Just like his green caterpillar mastered [Impact (Instant Strike)] by studying [Lightning Flash].
In fact, based on the green caterpillar's understanding of [Flash of Lightning] at this time, even Old Man Qian's Lada may not be able to match it. However, even so, his green caterpillar cannot understand the real [Flash of Lightning] and can only understand it through [impact]
】The power is simulated, which is the limitation of the elf bloodline gene.
Using elves as an example may not be easy to understand.
If it were replaced by a human, it would be like asking a normal human to learn to box with the third hand. Humans only have two hands. It is obviously impossible to learn the boxing skills of the third hand. Even if they really learn, they can only use their only two hands.
Simulation.
Mark thought for a while, and at the end of the question, he wrote down his conjecture about [electric shock (jet current)].
It is impossible for Pikachu to learn [Spray Flame], but based on the principle of [Spray Flame], it is still possible to learn to spray electric current.
……
Mark answered the questions very quickly. In less than ten minutes, he finished writing the two questions and handed them into Sun Ting's hands.
Sun Ting planned to take a casual look and agreed to Mark's request for self-study.
As a result, her brows gradually wrinkled as she read what Mark wrote.
It’s not that what Mark wrote was wrong, but that Mark wrote so well, with clear and organized content. At the end of the second question, he gave a conjecture that made her eyes light up.
Let Pikachu learn the principle of [Spray Flame] to spray electric current?
Although she didn't want to admit it, Sun Ting knew that if she were asked to answer these two questions, she would definitely not be able to answer Mark's level.
In fact, let alone Mark finishing the answer in less than ten minutes, even if she was given a few hours to copy the answer again, it would not be as good as Mark's answer at this time.
Sun Ting put down the paper in her hand, looked up at Mark, and asked subconsciously: "Don't you... consider becoming a researcher?"
"No, I would rather become a trainer, Teacher Sun. Then I will start self-study from tomorrow. If anything happens, you can tell Village Chief Qian that I will stay at his house now."
After Mark finished speaking, he took the green caterpillar and left the classroom.
Sun Ting watched Mark leave without saying a word for a long time. A black shadow appeared and conveyed some news to Sun Ting's ears.
Sun Ting looked at Miss Goethe doubtfully.
Her Miss Goethe has the [Perception] trait.
According to Miss Goethe, something seemed to appear near the classroom this morning that made her feel afraid and threatened, but this feeling was very vague.
Specifically, Miss Goethe will feel fear and threat in the elf ball, but when she carefully uses her superpower to explore the outside world, she feels nothing.
"It makes you feel scared? Could it be that a ghost-type elf has sneaked into the classroom?"
Miss Goethe shook her head. It was not clear. According to its perception, apart from the students who came to class, there were only one green caterpillar and two unicorn beetles.
Apart from that, the only thing that scares him is the village elder who appears in the early morning.
But the fearful feeling of the village elder has basically become accustomed to it over the past year. The fearful feeling that appeared this morning is completely different from that of the village elder, and the threat level seems to be lower.
Following Miss Goethe's further summons, Sun Ting fell into deep thought, recalling her lecture experience this morning. Except for those naughty bug-catching boys who made her teeth itchy with anger, there seemed to be nothing unusual or wrong...
