Chapter 194 A door and a window

Although it was late at night, the Taji City Cathedral was still as bright as during the day. The Philosopher's Stones embedded in the ceiling emitted a soft light, and the candlelight lit in front of the cross shone with each other, filling the entire church with a breath of sacredness and light.

The white cross representing God's will stand quietly on the altar of the church. God does not need a statue, but only this sign is enough to declare his uniqueness.

"Good evening, are you here to pray?" A young man in a priest robe came to Ulysses with a cross in his hand. He looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, but his expression was extremely pious, and he obviously regarded serving God in the church as his glory.

From him, Ulysses vaguely saw the shadow of Joshua. Judging from his age, it should be the new priest who had just been baptized and came to work in this church.

Seeing Ulysses keep looking at him, the young man who was a trainee priest quietly checked his clothes and manners with some anxiety, for fear of discrediting the church. For him, who grew up in the church orphanage, it was his lifelong dream to be able to work in such a large church as a trainee priest.

Although he is not enough to take the priest exam, whether it is the level of light magic or knowledge learning, he also has the dream of becoming a formal priest and has been working hard for it. In addition to the necessary exams, regular assessments are also indispensable.

In fact, many trainee priests are just trainee priests throughout their lives, and it is already amazing to be able to survive the priests' auxiliary sacrifice until they die. Those who can pass the priest exam are all elites among the elites.

The difficulty of the church priest exam is well-known throughout the continent. Although the exam questions are mainly based on theology and its branches, they do not have enough knowledge and ability to read books, so it is impossible to pass.

Therefore, the average age of a priest is so low, and it can be regarded as the largest age range among all occupations. When it comes to priests, most people think of kind old men with white beards and over fifty years old.

Of course, there are not many people who pass the exam when they are young, but they are all geniuses among geniuses. Such geniuses will achieve outstanding achievements no matter what profession they choose. Therefore, not many people choose the profession of priests at this age. Most of them are the great nobles who hope to increase their family reputation to do this.

There is a priest in the family, and for the nobles, it is even more respectful than a higher-level title. Even if you are the great duke of a country, if you do not have a priest in your family, your status in aristocratic society is not as good as that of the next-level nobles who have current priests.

In this regard, the Ana family is the undisputed first family on the mainland, with the most legendary family of popes and cardinals in history. Even if the Ana family is troubled by their direct heirs, it has not shaken the throne of his first family.

The origin family of the Supreme Divine Cult has developed countless branches through marriage in the past thousand years. It is said that among every ten priests in the continent, at least three people will trace the genealogy and be related to the Ana family. There is no dispute about the strongest priest family.

The founder of the Supreme God-Cult cross, the most dazzling gem on the throne of the church, the Ana family, blessed by God, has so much glory. No one expected that in this generation, the direct bloodline of this family that is rich in priests has reached a precarious level.

In fact, it is no exaggeration to say that it is hopeless, because in this generation, the entire Ana family no longer has male heirs, and the new direct line is all girls.

However, God closed a door and would definitely leave a window. When the elders of the Ana family couldn't sleep for this, the Savior appeared.

Now, this savior, who has touched the hearts of the entire Ana family, is preparing to apply for the priesthood exam in the Cathedral of Taji City.

"I'll sign up for the priest exam." Without the nervousness of the first time, the uneasiness of the second time, and the gambler spirit of the third time, Ulysses, who came to this church for the priest exam for the fourth time, had a very gentle smile, which made the trainee priest boy opposite him feel at ease.

"Ah, I am the ancestor who came to take the exam. Welcome to the Taji City Church." The trainee priest boy drew a cross on his chest and looked at Ulysses in front of him with some excitement.

Registration for the priest exam this year has been around for a while, but most of the people who come to the exam come together. This is the first time he has seen him sign up alone in the evening like Ulysses.

Although he was an apprentice priest, he knew that he was still far from the priest exam. Those difficult and obscure test questions were not prepared for rookies like him from the beginning.

So he felt particularly friendly when he saw Ulysses, who was only a few years older than him.

"You are new, right? This is my fourth time signing up here." Ulysses smiled and looked at the excited young priest. He planned to go through the registration quietly this time, so it was really lucky that he didn't meet an acquaintance.

"The fourth time! Senior, you actually took the priest exam so early. It's so great!" After knowing Ulysses' brilliant record, the juvenile priest who had not participated in it once was really shocked.

"I failed the first three times, nothing is amazing." Ulysses smiled as if he was self-deprecating. Now that he remembered that he dared to sign up for the priest exam after just judging a few priest sects for the first time.

It was only now that he realized how terrible it was, which was definitely not a difficult time that ordinary young people could pass. He still gained the power of the devil, and his thinking and memory ability were greatly improved. After reading countless precious theological books in the Ana family's large library, he gradually understood the questions that he could not answer in the past.

In the process, both Euphy's mother and Noah gave him considerable help, and in terms of theology, they were his well-deserved teachers.

It can be said that without the large library of the Ana family and the excellent learning environment as the Guanghui Academy, even if he became a demon king, he would not be able to pass the priest exam. This not only requires huge accumulation of knowledge, but also requires comprehensive knowledge mastery.

No wonder, priests are generally so old and so in short supply. It is just because the knowledge and abilities they need to master are far greater than other professions, which is a profession that only those with wisdom and knowledge can be competent.

In contrast, the part of the magic is not so important. Generally, priests in combat-type magic will not be able to do so at all. If there is a situation where fighting is needed, there will naturally be a church armed force, and the Paladins exist because of this.

"It's already amazing. I don't even dare to take the exam. Those problems are too difficult." The young priest intern still remembers the shock when he and his companions secretly looked for the priest exam papers from previous years.

Those questions, those that require detailed information and large passages of text, are like the Book of Heaven for them, who have just completed enlightenment education.

The questions in the priest exam are never repeated, and the difficulty of each year is amazing, and the answers are not restricted. If you want to get high scores, you must have a real understanding and research on those profound questions. It is best to have your own opinions, which is the most difficult theoretical examination recognized by the mainland.

In the eyes of the juvenile priest, it was natural for Ulysses to fail the exam three times. It is not necessarily possible for a person who can pass that exam at this age to ten years.

"Yes, it's really difficult." Ulysses now has a better understanding of the difficulty of the priest exam. As the saying goes, the higher he stands, the further he sees. Now when he thinks about the answers he handed in the priest exam, the more he understands that it is natural that he failed the three exams.

He also saw many omissions in the answers announced after each exam. Obviously, they were really just the simplest standard answer. It is far from enough to get a better score and just give an answer of that level.

This time, he did not allow himself to fail again, or even pass the exam. He wanted to get the best score and fulfill his dream with the best performance, the dream of a boy who had been in Taji City for three years and had thought he would stay for a longer time.

"Then, I'll be responsible for accepting the registration." The young priest of the trainee took Ulysses to the altar and took out a note from the holy cabinet.

The above records the names of the candidates who took the priest exam in Taji City this year. This is a very sacred thing, so every exam is very serious. Not only does it require verification of the identity of the candidate, but all the information of the candidate will be recorded in order to ensure that no one will take the exam on his behalf.

"name."

“Ulysses.”

“Where comes from?”

"Mila Village."

"Light magic level."

"Sixth order."

With a "bang!", the young master's pen fell to the ground, but he didn't notice it at all, because he was staring at Ulysses in front of him in a daze, and then finally noticed the unfair magician level mark unique to the magician union in the black magician robe he was wearing.

It is indeed a sixth-level light magician, and it is a formal sixth-level light magician notarized by the Magician Union. The power of the magicians all comes from the light side, so a sixth-level light magician only needs to pass the priest exam and then go through the faith ceremony and can immediately become a sixth-level priest.

Oh my God, that is the level of the great priest! It is enough to control the highest divine power of a country and to crown the king. Many large priests in small countries are even only about level five, and the sixth-level priests are existences that even the seventh-level strong people need respect, because it represents the supreme power of the church and is the basis for entering the highest level of the church.
