Going through the Door, a Formation triggered once they were verified. Both Leroy and Tang Xuan vanished in light and were transported to another Continent. Only slightly dazed, Leroy recovered after taking a few steps.
Tang Xuan was used to stuff such as this. He was surprised to see Leroy recover so quickly and let it show with a big smile.
"Most throw up or just look sick until they go through a Transport Formation at least 50 times." Leading them to on, he started to explain the situation. Considering they were only required to have their Identity token visible, he agreed with Leroy in covering up facial features. "Do you want to shop or Test first?"
"Tests.. it is the whole reason we are here. Is this technically the Akademy still?" Using the Metal Seed he got back the area was different. Not to mention the Qi in the air was more abundant. "I can see a lot of students but also a lot of other students that look different."
The questions were to help with his cover. The information he knew about the area allowed him to know the students he saw were from a different Akademy and the Merchant Division was linked to others. The entire island itself was far off somewhere on the planet and kept together by an Unbreakable Pact signed by all the Akademy's established.
That was the most important information he obtained. That and the first attacking party would get in trouble more than who was right or who was wrong. A place that ends in the death of a hothead really quickly.
Tang Xuan then basically explained basically all of that to him as they moved. With additional tidbits that made Leroy happy. With enough funds, he could enter the Auction House or the Arena to hone his skills. The first one was a good way to gain money, the other was basically useless since you could only fight those at the same Cultivation Realm and Rank.
The Occupation sign-up was quick and easy after passing their Recommendation Letters and Teacher approval. Having both of those made it a hell of a lot easier to get pass paperwork and questions. Not to mention a seal that Tang Xuan showed with his paperwork to help push them through.
"Well, good luck on your tests." Waving to the other, Leroy went in one door and Tang Xuan went in another. "Let's see what all that cramming and everything else will get me."
In the room was a Formation that lit up. The things were used for a lot of stuff that was considered important. Cost was pretty high but some Formations were literally up for centuries if not millennia.
*Shine!* A red light lit up, causing Leroy to tense into a fighting stance. But it went away as two doors opened up. Immediately some really old people came in. Their Cultivation at the Nascent Soul Realm.
"Can't afford the test and pay for it with information, well I hope you are a ready student." Looking over the information, the proctor was surprised. 'Has cultivated less than 4 months and already in the middle stages of the Qi Refining Realm and an Accomplished Doctor?!'
The information was dated and only had reported information and guesses of the Test and before it. To make themselves better and more accredited, the Clear Tang Family and Town Leader Arklay fluffed him up. Not to mention the treating of a few students after the Test that couldn't afford the more expensive stuff.
His new associate and deal with Charlotte helped in that department as well.
"Let's begin." The 2nd Proctor started up with a smile. 'The little oddball mistress found a good one. Her Aunt Constance is already watching the Testing today.'
The broad medical test was first. Leroy was able to answer the 5000 questions in about 2 Hours. It took so long as he to write down the answers that fit in this Dimension. It took a lot of effort and ticked him off to keep doing so.
Despite how he felt the two proctors were happy at the meticulous answers. Then the Note section appeared. This was an area that encouraged students, who mind you would take this their second or third year would be filling out, did so.
Leroy passed on basic antibiotic treatments that would help those in the Body Tempering Realm and non-cultivators. It wouldn't be much help to those at the Qi Refining Realm because Qi itself took care of that problem. However, for higher issues, it could be adapted in some way or form. More Cultivators are needed to help with the Medical Field to help the populace as a whole.
'This should get me some recognition or prizes at the very least.' Leroy was to aware of a lot going on for the common man thanks to the Test and people like Tessei who struggled in Hamlets. 'I may not join these political sides yet but this can help them and me as a whole.'
As the Medical Note Section was looked over, the Proctors nodded and told he definitely passed the first portion and was awarded the corresponding Tier to reflect it. Leroy received the 4th Tier Medical sash to show this.
Of course, it could be that easy. A light lit up in black that someone challenged the results and he had to debate it. Considering modern day doctors had to take so many notes and not to mention what he had to do since getting hear to survive, it was easy.

"Hahahaha!" A loud booming laugh could be heard through the sealed doors. "This thing called Pencillin is perfect!" The two proctors looked ashamed at their senior causing a ruckus.
The lights that had shined back cleared one by one.
"Are you ready to move on to your next test?" The 1st proctor asked to get things moving.
"Yes." Leroy gave a nod and start answering the moment it came up. 'This test will not be as good as the other or the next few.' Testing on Smithing he was aware he could make the basics and that was only fined tuned because of those he refined. 'If it has nothing to do with Medicine I can't really do something astounding yet.'
Leroy answered about a 1000 questions in 30 minutes. With only a few detailed parts that made for good answers. The Note section appeared once more but he only wrote the Insights he gained from the Metal Seed itself.
A few black lights shined as they asked for details on it. Of course, he answered as he really needed some help in this department. Taking the chance to improve the Metal Seed itself could not be missed with how it was advancing.
Once the lights cleared, a door opened in the center with a female proctor joining in. She sat down at the table with a small box. By the looks of the other two Proctors, this was a good thing.
"Ready for the next Test?" The 1st Proctor asked. Leroy gave him a nod and it began once more with several questions added that were not standard and more detailed. But this allowed him to answer more advanced once before the most basic. 'I wonder why the test has changed? Surely not just because of time itself.'
The 3rd proctor watched Leroy closely to make sure he was not cheating because she was interested in this portion and the next few Tests. It had nothing to do with his age or outside accomplishments.
"Part 2 of this test requires to show some work." Passing the box over she continued what she wanted. "Please show your best work." The 3rd proctor's eyes lit up purple as she watched him get started.
Leroy looked at the garments that were in shreds. Channeling his Qi into the fabric he got started by removing the various particulates inside. Lots of blood and matted flesh or something. The various Inscription patterns inside were slowly repaired as he started to also stitch them back up with his hands.
The inner workings took the longest and 1/10 of his Qi. The clothing was nicely cleaned and oozed a gentle radiance of power. Around the shoulders, he let it out some since it showed strain from growth or expansion.
"Good job." The 3rd Proctor took the garment back and neatly folded it up. "The Formation Test was also mixed into this so you do not have to take it separately. However the Inscription Pattern test... I recommend it all the same."
No black lights lit up and there was not a note section. The Tests stopped here to break for a meal break. Leroy opted to stay in the room and a proctor came in as the other three left.
He was surprised when the new person was revealed to be Tang Ansui. he didn't know the man was a Proctor and only thought he was a Teacher and Government Worker.
"My young friend, how are you?" The voice came out with a little fatigue. He was either tired physically or mentally. 'The 7th Rank of the Qi Refining Realm and completely stable as if he cultivated diligently for years. I am more than impressed and so are those that back our group. Tang Xuan is right to give his praise.'
If he knew Leroy had a source of Qi that was much stronger inside him and the making of a third source, the man would go crazy. Not to mention the Assassin Group would try to kill him from the sheer amount of Commisions they would receive incessantly.
"I am making it. Tests I am used to in this type of format compared to what happened at the T3esting Site. Not like I haven't studied the majority of my life for stuff like this." Of course, he meant more of what he studied back on his Earth and not here. 'They don't need to know how long I study exactly and not like I can answer in an appropriate way.'
"That is good. Just wanted to let you know my daughter actually started taking Inscription Patterns more seriously. If you can, I hope the two of you can learn from each other." Tang Ansui smiled as this also implied something else he wanted. 'I can't help her understand Formations like her mother could have but finding someone to help rival in this would be for the best.'
"Of course, we are pretty good friends that can come to good terms." He was not under the assumption the man didn't know about the deal he had with the young teen. 'I wonder what they are going to do about the Rebellion that is building?'
The next few minutes they just shot the shit. Speaking as old friends but not overly so. Which definitely clued Leroy in that they were possibly watched. This was expected during the test and maybe afterward.
"Keep up the good work." Tang Ansui got up and tapped the table in rhythm. A ripple of Qi shined in various places. "The Akademy gets a nice reward for students who do well."
No sooner was the man gone did the Proctors return. The 1st proctor was still in the group but the other two were new. The clothing and build were only slightly different enough to give it away.
"Are you ready for the Formation Test?" The 1st Proctor asked with a smile. 'This young man is exactly what we need to help push new innovations. Such a nice bunch that have come from the Heavenly Theocracy Akademy this year.'
"Show the most Basic to Advance Formations you know." One of the newer Proctors ordered. The voice was a little clipped and it was easy to tell they were upset.
Why Leroy had no idea. Getting to work he used three of the most Basic Formations. The Proctors all nodded then smiled as he then connected the three together turning them into an Advance Formation.
"Good job." The former clipped proctor was now nice for some reason. "No mistakes and straight to the chase. Not some dabbler like they were saying."
"Thanks.." Confused he left it be.
"Do you have anything you have Designed yourself?" The other new Proctor asked.
Leroy paused and thought over what he had used so far. Considering the various Formations he used in the Akademy and everything that has been taken from his courtyard it would be best to show a little of them instead of anything else.
The Formation took more time than any of the tests to set up. Literally took 9 hours to do since he didn't have help or assistance by others while doing so in the room. The three Proctors watched in anticipation as the various methods used incorporated both Smithing, Inscription Patterns, and the Formation of several different components.
Outside the number of Proctors had increased in watching the events of the Test. Since new or old Proctors couldn't go in while a test was going on, they had to wait. Leroy drew on the walls and the table setup had to be moved to the side.
"I call it the Genesis Body Formation. Accumulation of my life's work really." This was not a lie as this contains inspiration from back home with medical science and the understanding of Body Tempering and Qi Refining Realm opening. "Best if used by a family member on a five-year-old or someone really understanding of the Body or Formations."
