"What did he teach you all?"
Sang Qingxiao had a hunch but still asked.
"The Earth Store Sutra."
"The Diamond Sutra."
"The Heart Sutra."
"The Amitabha Sutra."
"The Great Compassion Mantra."
The children eagerly answered, and Sang Qingxiao wished he could find a crack in the ground to hide in.
Just then, Little Buddha, eager to show off, pulled out his small Muyu from his Little Bag. Little Raccoon followed suit, and the two little ones began to play without a care in the world, chanting loudly:
"The Evil Deeds Committed in the Past,
All arise from endless greed, anger, and ignorance.
From body, speech, and mind,
I now repent for all."
Sang Qingxiao felt a mix of anger and amusement, regretting how much trust he had placed in Misha. Li Cu, being a cat, jumped out the window to stifle a laugh. Qi Xiaomian nearly burst out laughing too but was pinched painfully by Sang Qingxiao.
The only one who maintained composure was Wen Yuan; he listened with an entranced expression. Although the two little voices were accompanied by the unique melody of chanting, it still felt somewhat out of place in the academy. Sang Qingxiao couldn't help but worry that this exam might be doomed.
Wen Yuan patiently waited until the chanting was finished before bursting into laughter. He pinched the cheeks of the two little treasures and praised them for what felt like an eternity. The two little ones blushed deeply, their heads spinning as if they might float away.
"Can you write?" Wen Yuan asked again.
The Two Little Treasures nodded eagerly, and after confirming, picked up a small child-sized pen. With great seriousness, they wrote each character carefully.
Wen Yuan's eyes never left the paper. When the child filled an entire sheet, he called out to stop. "Such difficult characters, and even the babies can write them. Amazing!"
Sang Qingxiao glanced over as well. Although the handwriting was not particularly elegant, each stroke was flawless—there wasn't a single mistake to be found.
She sighed inwardly, feeling proud. Quietly, she pulled herself out from her hiding spot.
"Xiao Wen, the Headmaster," she said, "how about that? Our child is impressive, isn't he? Such a long and complicated Sutra, and he recited it perfectly without a single stutter."
Looking at the writing again, how clear each stroke was! The Sutra contained many obscure characters, yet they managed to remember them all. Some adults would struggle to write as well as they did.
And remember the chanting melody earlier? Our Two Little Treasures definitely have a talent for it; perhaps they could develop this skill further.
My little treasure is not only good at literature but also martial arts! Under the guidance of Black General, every day Riri practices stances and martial techniques without fail.
My little treasure has excellent character too; the beggar children near Small Tavern are all fed well by him.
Sang Qingxiao praised him enthusiastically before turning to Wen Yuan. "Did our little treasure pass the exam?"
As Third Young Lady said, with such a child, how could I not take him in?
