At this moment, several students peeking outside the door gradually realized something was amiss.
How comes... it seems to be flowing so smoothly??
The soundproofing of the sight-reading exam room is very good, usually, people outside can hardly hear clearly what piece of music is being played inside.
Although the specifics are unclear, if one listens carefully against the door or windows, the overall tone of the piece is still vaguely audible.
And the piano sound inside the classroom... has been playing very smoothly since the beginning.
And there are no breaks in between!
"Really... seriously?"
One of the examinees couldn’t help but exclaim,
"Can he really play?"
"Is there any chance he’s just winging it? I also keep going by sheer will when I can’t continue sight-reading."
"Don’t doubt... he must be bluffing! Damn, why can everyone else look serious while playing, but he has to show off like that!"
Even though the specifics of what is being played aren’t clear, just this continuous rhythm is already outrageous enough.
Especially seeing Lin Tian even closing his eyes at one point while playing, the examinees collectively broke down!
No way, can someone really act like that?!
"No, wait, he doesn’t seem to be playing randomly, look...."
One of the examinees immediately stretched out his index finger, pointing through a crack towards another side,
"Look at the invigilator, she... she seems to be smiling!!"
Everyone was shocked, quickly cramming forward, vying to peek through the crack.
Previously, the female teacher always showed a expressionless demeanor.
Now, she was sitting in a very comfortable position with her arms crossed.
Looking at Lin Tian, who was playing the piano.
It was as if... she was enjoying a music performance!
To the female teacher, the boy’s performance before her eyes was indeed the most beautiful few minutes she had experienced since she started invigilating today.
This was no longer just an exam.
This was a one-on-one performance!
At first, she even suspected that the boy might have known the exam content ahead of time, so he memorized it.
But upon further thought, it seemed unlikely.
Given the vast number of scores in the music library, even if he memorized all these scores, he couldn’t possibly play them to such a level.
Clearly far exceeded her own!
So why is he here for the arts exam? With such skill, does he really need an arts exam?!
When the sight-reading recording ended.
Lin Tian walked out of the exam room, immediately swallowed by the gazes of a large crowd.
The number of examinees here had more than doubled compared to when Lin Tian had entered.
The news had spread like wildfire in the groups of all art school candidates.
They were all talking about how a celestial being appeared in Room A7 during the sight-reading exam!
The only candidate who made the invigilator laugh during the test!
While other candidates were cursing that this year’s exam questions were all unreasonable, this candidate played effortlessly.
Suddenly, a lot of students who had just finished their exam came to see.
"Isn’t that the handsome guy we saw in the plaza?"
"Oh man! What a shame I’m not in A7, I really want to see!"
"Such an impressive guy, and he’s not even from Chunqiu..."
Faced with this sudden lively scene, Lin Tian was momentarily stunned.
Then, he started politely saying "Excuse me" "Excuse me," as he squeezed his way towards the corridor.
After squeezing out from the crowd, Lin Tian quickly left.
Wondering how Gan Yanyu’s exam went?
Lin Tian thought to himself.
There was still some time, Lin Tian considered whether to go to Room A9 to check.
Theoretically, Mr. Gan’s professional level shouldn’t worry him.
But when it comes to causing worry, Yanyu has never failed to do so...
Having passed his own sight-reading, Lin Tian still really wanted to see how Yanyu was doing.
Halfway through, Lin Tian finally stopped running.
Since he had agreed with Gan Yanyu to meet after the exam.
Next, Lin Tian hurriedly headed to the next exam venue.
Basic knowledge of music theory, a test that could be easily mastered by rote memorization, was naturally not a challenge for Lin Tian.
He completed it effortlessly.
It was also a written test, testing the candidates’ musical hearing ability, musical memory, and ability to recognize musical scores.
Lin Tian breezed through it as well, being the first to submit when the bell rang.
Lin Tian suddenly discovered that he seemed inexplicably famous during this morning’s arts examination.
In every exam venue, he could hear people discussing him.
He was practically treated like a gossip king!
What Lin Tian didn’t know was that in the small circle of arts exam candidates, any trivial matter spread several times faster than in a regular high school.
And Lin Tian’s sudden fame also made many arts training institutions feel threatened.
Many teachers also began to look into Lin Tian’s background.
This suddenly emerged, seemingly backgroundless arts exam candidate, began to excel in various exam venues...
He was completely like a deity who had descended!
This disrupted many organizations’ predictions and arrangements for the "top ten in the unified exam," causing them to start panicking!
After Lin Tian had finished all the subjects.
Only one was left—Musical Instrument Performance.
On the way to the venue, suddenly, a long-haired boy blocked his path.
"I’m Wu Yi, an arts exam candidate from Chunqiu," Wu Yi said with a smile.
Chunqiu, Lin Tian recalled, when lining up in the square, he had seen a banner, it seemed to be a prestigious training institution.
"Is there something?"
"You haven’t heard my name before?" Wu Yi seemed surprised.
"Why should I have heard your name?"
"Ah, you must not be from a local training institution."
"I don’t have a training institution."
Wu Yi showed a quite interested expression, sizing Lin Tian up with his eyes,
"I heard that you scored full marks on your sight-reading test."
"Who said that?" Lin Tian was startled.
"Ha ha, that’s what they said," Wu Yi chuckled kindly.
"In the upcoming instrument performance, we are in the same venue, I look forward to seeing your performance," said Wu Yi.
Then, he added with a somewhat playful tone, lowering his voice,
"Just to mention, my sight-reading test... also scored full marks...."
Lin Tian smiled, patted Wu Yi on the shoulder,
"You do your best too!"
Then he quickly walked away.
Leaving Wu Yi standing there, stunned.
Wu Yi held his head, showing an... extremely terrified expression.
Young man’s sky has fallen!
"It’s over, it’s over, it’s over......"
"No, why did I have to show off in front of the teacher like that! Saying ’an interesting opponent’ and such, it was totally because I thought it was cool!!!"
