After waking up and just about to get out of bed, Leyton suddenly noticed a raven with a few scarlet feathers standing on Bugs Bunny's small nest. Leyton's movement to get up froze in mid-air.

"Mr. Hughes? Is there something you need?" Leyton's voice was full of confusion.

"I'm just a raven; my true body is still in the Library organizing those books. My Lord's oracle has already been delivered, and the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom will soon have people entering the Spirit World Sorcerer system one after another," the raven said with some excitement in its tone.

At the same time, a brass-colored ring slowly emerged behind it, with an Omniscient Eye in the center of the ring.

"Good heavens, now there won't be more animals than people entering this Spirit World Sorcerer system, will there?" Leyton silently complained in his heart.

"The Church's actions are so fast? Then why did you come to find me?" To cover up the fleeting complaint in his heart, Leyton immediately asked a question.

"I'm here to supervise your exam! Finish it quickly, and I won't have to keep an eye on you all day," the raven said, shaking its head and retracting the brass-colored ring that had appeared behind it.

Leyton rubbed his head helplessly. He had originally wanted to find an opportunity to read more or have the Hidden Sage infuse him with some knowledge.

"You're not going to make me take the exam now, are you? Didn't you say yesterday that the exam time could be extended a bit?" Leyton asked, looking at the raven standing on Bugs Bunny's nest, with a questioning tone.

"Extended means if you don't pass, you'll be given a bit more time for a retest," the raven explained mercilessly.

Leyton's expression froze on his face. The other party already knew he wouldn't pass and had even extended the retest time for him.

"Then can I take the retest directly?" Leyton asked dejectedly.

"No!" the raven refused very decisively.

"Alright then... can I eat breakfast first?" Leyton sought the raven's opinion.

"Yes, I'll come back later," the raven said, its figure gradually fading until it disappeared from the room.

Leyton looked at Bugs Bunny, who was still sound asleep in its nest, and suddenly felt a bit annoyed. He couldn't escape the exam, yet this rabbit could still sleep peacefully in its nest.

Leyton walked over decisively and shook the sleeping Bugs Bunny awake.

"Ugh~ Boss! Let me sleep a little longer!" Bugs Bunny mumbled, rolling over in its nest.

Leyton, with a black line on his forehead, reached out and distorted Bugs Bunny's ears, pulling it out of its nest. Ignoring the rabbit's resistance, he dragged it to eat breakfast.

"Ugh!" Bugs Bunny bit forcefully into the vegetable leaf it held with both paws, as if it were the culprit that dragged it out of its warm bed.

"Oh? Does the little rabbit like these leaves very much? I'll ask Sherry to prepare more later," his mother, Isabel, said, watching Bugs Bunny vigorously munching on the vegetable leaves, thinking it was something it liked to eat.

"No need, it's just a novelty for it. It'll switch to other foods it likes after a while," Leyton stopped his mother's suggestion.

"Alright then." Isabel didn't pay too much attention and picked up the milk beside her, taking a sip.

After breakfast, Leyton took Bugs Bunny to the study on the second floor. As soon as they entered the room, a raven was already waiting for them on the desk in the study.

Leyton's mouth twitched. He felt that this raven had definitely used its divination ability.

"On the matter of exams, the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom truly has a deep obsession!" Leyton sighed in his heart.

"Whoa! Why is the raven here again?" Bugs Bunny boldly ran over and sat next to the raven, even reaching out to pat the scarlet feathers on the raven's head.

"I'm here to supervise Leyton's exam. Do you want to take an exam too?" The raven tilted its head, and Bugs Bunny's paw missed.

"Hmm, prepare one for it too, but it can't write. Do you have any ideas?" Leyton felt he should share the hardship with Bugs Bunny.

"Whoa~ I'm just a rabbit!" Bugs Bunny looked at its boss in disbelief, its eyes full of panic.

"It's simple. I'll temporarily make it learn. As a Beyonder creature, teaching it to write isn't too difficult," the raven said, nodding.

"Hmm." Leyton nodded thoughtfully, always feeling that these unique spells of the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom were invented to help others do better on exams.

"You're going too far! Aren't you going to ask the rabbit how it feels?" Bugs Bunny shouted, exasperated, seeing its boss reach an agreement with the raven so quickly.

"If you can pass, I'll tell you how to grow a bed that can take various shapes, produce fruits of different flavors, and even provide warmth," the raven stated calmly, staring at the exasperated Bugs Bunny.

"A bed?" Leyton was stunned for a moment.

"Really?" Bugs Bunny's eyes widened, full of disbelief.

Leyton saw drool about to drip from the corner of this unpromising rabbit's mouth.

"Of course, it's real. Why would I lie to a rabbit?" The raven's tone was very arrogant when it said this.

"When does the exam start?" Bugs Bunny asked impatiently.

Leyton, on the side, was a bit speechless. He hadn't expected this rabbit to be so easily controlled by the raven. He could only say it was indeed an Angel of the White Tower pathway, perfectly grasping others' weaknesses.

Leyton took out the exam paper the raven had given him yesterday from the drawer, and ignoring its negotiation with Bugs Bunny, he sat on a nearby chair and began to do the questions.

The raven flapped its wings and pulled several exam papers from the Spirit World. Then it looked at Bugs Bunny and nodded, flapping its wings again. Specks of brass-colored light fell onto Bugs Bunny's body.

"Alright, take these questions and try them," the raven flapped its wings, motioning for Bugs Bunny to take the exam paper and do it himself.

"Okay!" Bugs Bunny nodded excitedly.

It picked up the exam paper from the desk, then went to Leyton's side to get a quill pen, and immediately sat on the desk to start answering the questions.

Leyton couldn't resist his curiosity and glanced at Bugs Bunny, who was diligently doing the questions. He found that it was indeed thinking very seriously, and then writing and drawing on the exam paper in a proper manner.

Seeing that the rabbit was writing so diligently, Leyton could only continue to bend his head and do the questions.

The exam questions the raven gave Leyton didn't involve much mysticism; instead, there were many questions about various subjects like geography and mathematics.

Fully embodying the spirit of never leaving a blank, and even if fabricating, fabricating an answer, Leyton finally finished these exam papers before sunset.

Looking at the sunset outside the window, Leyton stretched lazily, completely unaware that a day had passed just like that.

The raven flapped its wings, and the last exam paper Leyton finished automatically flew to its front, then became translucent and disappeared into reality.

"You finished reading so quickly?" Leyton asked curiously.

The raven had only glanced at the exam paper before throwing it into the Spirit World. Leyton wouldn't doubt that the other party hadn't read it carefully; that would be an insult to a Wisdom Angel.

"Yes, there wasn't much to read. I had already seen it while you were answering," the raven said in a very flat voice.

"And the result? Didn't pass?" Leyton was well aware of his own performance.

"To be precise, you got a few points. Retake the exam in a month," the raven replied without any fluctuation in its voice.

"Uh, is it that bad?" Leyton felt like he was facing his homeroom teacher after failing an exam.

"Yes, originally the retest was in two weeks, but I felt two weeks wouldn't be enough for you to pass the retest, so I extended the time for you," the raven continued in its unfluctuating voice.

Leyton was speechless for a moment. Although this was helping him, Leyton felt that he was being discriminated against by the other party.

"What about the rabbit?" Leyton asked curiously about the rabbit's score.

If even the rabbit passed, Leyton felt he would have to discriminate against himself too.

"The same as you!" the raven said in a flat voice.

After the raven finished speaking, its figure gradually became illusory and transparent, disappearing from the room in the next moment.

Leyton and Bugs Bunny exchanged glances, seemingly seeing disdain for themselves in each other's eyes.

"A bed that can grow fruits of different flavors and also sleep on, it's gone!" Bugs Bunny said, his voice as dejected as a defeated dog.

"It's okay, you can move the bed to the orchard and still eat and sleep at the same time!" Leyton reminded the dejected rabbit.

"Oh, right!" Bugs Bunny's eyes lit up, and it regained its vitality.

"Then didn't I just do all those questions for nothing?" Bugs Bunny thought about how hard it had worked on the questions and felt like all its effort had been wasted.

"It's okay, at least it made you realize that you're not suited for studying," Leyton said casually.

"Hmm, exactly! Boss, you're not suited for studying either," Bugs Bunny's sincere words made Leyton feel a stab in his heart.

Leyton really wanted to refute this statement, but after thinking for a long time, he couldn't think of how to refute it.

"Never mind, what does it matter if I'm not suited for studying? Hidden Sage, the best study partner!" Leyton completely firmed his resolve to seek the Hidden Sage for knowledge infusion.
