After explaining the rules, the invigilator snapped his fingers, and immediately guards armed with weapons brought in boxes sealed with tape, distributing them to the competitors.
Each person in front of them received two boxes, one sealed box containing herbal medicine and the other an empty box.
The purpose of the empty box was to let each participant place the tested herbs back into it.
After all, among these were quite a few rare or highly valuable medicinal herbs.
Although the Ning Family was wealthy enough to rival a nation, they didn’t want to waste resources unnecessarily.
"The examination begins! Open the boxes!" the invigilator shouted, raising his voice.
Xia Ningxing, among the other candidates, immediately tore off the seals, examined the herbs inside the boxes, and then filled in their answer sheets.

In fact, they were indeed very similar, deliberately arranged by the Ning Family with the aim of testing the contestants’ eyesight and their familiarity with the medicinal herbs.
Because they were so alike, many candidates were already sweating anxieties on their foreheads, some scratching their heads and faces, caught in a quandary.
Xia Ningxing, on the other hand, was calm and composed, picking up her pen and writing steadily, as if it was all very easy for her.
