Chapter 248 249 The Palace Exam Begins!
The natural disaster broke out, the Leixing meteorite fell to the ground, and panic was shaken and panic in various parts of the Shenwu Continent. Countless disasters broke out, and disasters spread everywhere.
The Canglan court urgently sent people to various places to count the disaster situation and make solutions to deal with it.
However, the sky has not collapsed, and we have to continue doing what we should do.
The next day.
Canglan King City, the highly anticipated palace examination, finally began.
This is the highest level Wuhou competition in the Canglan vassal state, which determines the future and status of a Wuhou and also determines the future of the family behind Wuhou.
Moreover, these supervisors who participated in the palace examination will become the ruling inside and outside the Canglan Kingdom's court in the near future, which can be said to be involved in the national destiny.
Whether it is the Canglan family, the officials of Wuhou, the wealthy families, and tens of millions of people in the city, they are naturally very concerned about this.
In the first round of civil and military competition in the palace examination, the examination room was set up in the imperial prison, the largest and most spacious in the royal city.
In addition to the complete and complete competition facilities, it is enough to accommodate all Imperial College Supervisors students to participate in the assessment, it can also accommodate 100,000 viewers.
All the ministers of the court, wealthy families, and many martial arts masters in the royal city, whether old people with old heads or young talents, were allowed to enter the Imperial College to watch this ten-year test.
Imperial College.
Chongwen Pavilion, inside the main hall.
The seats of five examiners were placed in the main hall, and the five examiners were already in office. These five examiners are not only the question setters, but also the invigilator and the judges. Please support us the greatest support, thank you
As the most important national-level palace examination in Canglan Country, the five candidates who serve as chief examiners are naturally extraordinary. We must be respected and convinced by everyone, so that this examination can have sufficient credibility.
Representative of the court minister and Prime Minister Liu Guoliang. As the head of the court officials of Canglan, Liu Guoliang is naturally the unquestionable first-choice representative. He is gentle in his character and is also a famous peacemaker in the court.
Representative of the royal family, the Grand Prince Ling Hong, was extremely prestigious among the royal family and was one of the nine important officials. Moreover, he was a hard-core monarch and had never expressed his support for any prince.
Representative of the Minister of the Frontier and Cao Hao, the President of the Donglai County Court.
Cao Hao was once the first civil and military ranking in the first round of the palace examination ninety years ago, but Ce Wen and Drinking Cultivation was a unique series, and was called whimsical by the king and was not loved by him, and he became the third place in the second round of the palace examination.
Because of this, he had a knot with the king and had a slightly inferior position in the officialdom of Canglan. However, he had a very high reputation among the people, and was also the top Wuhou master in the top ten of Canglan Haoyue List. He was the long-standing old Wuhou, so he was naturally qualified to be one of the five major examiners.
The representative of Wuhou in Ye is Niu Shaojun. This person is the third in the Canglan Haoyue List. He has a very deep cultivation in the late Wuhou realm, but he did not serve as an official in the court. He has always lived in seclusion in the wilderness and is also a top-notch Wuhou with a very high reputation. He has always been disdainful of serving as an official in the court and does not please the king or any ministers. He is a famous pride.
The last examiner was Bian Hengyi, the current patriarch of the Wangcheng Wu Wang family. The Wu Wang family has a neutral position and will not easily intervene in the court struggle. As the Canglan Palace Examination examiner, he also has enough prestige.
Hundreds of supervisors who were preparing to participate in the palace examination entered the spacious Chongwen Pavilion one after another, and each sat down to prepare to start the first round of the palace examination.
The literary test, that is, the written test, is the basic theoretical foundation of the nine major professions of Shenwu, which is compared with knowledge.
There are also a few students who are not sure about attending this exam because they are too short to attend the school and are watching from a large crowd outside the hall.
Outside Chongwen Pavilion, Princess Ling Jiaojiao, Mu Bing, Cao Youwen, Qin Yuer and others all came to send Ye Fan into the examination room.
Even Gu Hanjian, who had no concerns about the world when he entered the Imperial College, arrived and saw the palace examination that Ye Fan participated.
"Brother Ye Fan, you will definitely get the first place in the palace examination this time. It is best to get a full mark for them to see how powerful Wuhou in our Donglai County is, and it is a waste of time."
Qin Yuer waved her fists and said with confidence.
"That's all, who dares to win the first place if he doesn't win the first place? I guess after taking the literature exam, others will not be confident about the next big exam."
Mu Bing smiled.
Cao Youwen couldn't help but look at him and said in surprise: "Why are you two so confident in the first round of the palace examination? But they are all the strongest Imperial Jade Wuhou in Canglan Kingdom. They are all top experts who stand out from the top ten counties and royal cities. Many people are the first in each county. You are so sure that Brother Ye can get the first in the literary examination."
She met Ye Fan in Donglai County. Although she knew Ye Fan was very strong, she didn't know how strong she was. She didn't have the experience of taking the exam with Ye Fan personally, and she felt so deeply.
Since they finished the exam with Ye Fan in the same field, they never wanted to take the exam together again.
They were originally considered geniuses from Luyang Prefecture and even Donglai County, but when competing with Ye Fan, they would feel that their brains were not enough and they seemed too stupid.
"I heard that Ye Fan was once the top five-series in Luyang Prefecture... But the top five-series in Luyang Prefecture is probably not very strong. Luyang Prefecture is just a small city. Rui Zifan is the top four-series in Canglan King City. In a big city with a population of tens of millions like Canglan King City, it is definitely not easy to become the top four-series. Moreover, many of the other Wuhous are geniuses from the top ten counties, and they are also extremely knowledgeable. I am afraid that Ye Fan will not have to be bad in the literary test."
Ling Jiaojiao was also curious.
Gu Hanjian said lightly: "That's because you have never seen Ye Fan's examination scene in Luyang Mansion. When he was fifteen or sixteen years old, he identified an unknown stone egg and resurrected the mammoth. You think Rui Zifan has the ability to do it."
"Rui Zifan must not be able to identify an unknown stone egg, let alone resurrecting the ancient wilderness beast."
When Ling Jiaojiao thought about it, she nodded deeply with consent.
Seeing the rise of their words, Ye Fan couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Okay, don't praise me. I had no choice but to participate in the palace examination. If I had the heart of martial arts like Senior Brother Gu, I could become King of Martial Arts directly, then I would even save the palace examination."
He is already at the peak of the ninth level of the Ice Martial Soul and it is difficult for him to continue to rise.
The best way is undoubtedly to awaken the heart of martial arts and be promoted to King of Martial Arts. It doesn’t matter whether you participate in the palace examinations of the vassal states. You can directly enter the huge stage of the Zixuan Dynasty and spread across the entire Shenwu Continent.
However, he had no way to awaken his mind to martial arts, and he still had no way to start.
Taking the Canglan Palace Examination is a suboptimal choice and a helpless realistic choice.
Except for the extremely rare natural awakening of martial arts heart like Gu Hanjian, other Wuhou must focus on the palace examination.
To strive to gain a good position in the vassal states and try to become a chess player, so that you can become a chess piece that is not at the mercy of others.
"This is different. If you participate in the palace examination competition, I will not be your opponent. Besides, you have a great hope of becoming the King of Martial Arts."
Gu Hanjian shook his head.
"Clang~"
In Chongwen Pavilion, a big bell that indicates that the exam is about to begin is ringing. After twenty-one rings, the first round of the palace examination will begin, and students who have not yet entered the examination room will not be allowed to enter.
"I won't talk about it for now, I'll take the exam."
Ye Fan said goodbye to everyone and stepped into the Chongwen Pavilion Hall. There were already fifty or sixty Wuhou Supervisors in the Chongwen Pavilion Hall, and they had already sat down.
He found a seat in the hall and sat down.
Lao Wuhou Hao Ziming, gray-clothed old man, looked around the hall. When he saw Ye Fan coming in, he immediately came to Ye Fan to sit down, and laughed and said, "Brother Ye, I wish my three-time seniors in the high school palace examination, the third-class senior, will come over to enjoy the joy."
He has participated in three consecutive palace examinations. If he still fails this exam, he will not have the chance to participate in the next palace examination.
Of course, in this palace examination, he still has some hope of squeezing into the top ten. Even if his qualifications are not good, his accumulation over the years is here.
"Brother Hao, go to high school together"
Ye Fan couldn't help but smile and bowed.
When the Chongwen Pavilion bell rang for more than ten times, the remaining small group of supervisors finally entered the hall.
Rui Zifan, Qin Ning and other small groups of twenty or thirty Wuhou students walked into the hall in the last time, with a rainbow of momentum, and a stance of determination to win.
After Rui Zifan entered the hall, he paused for a moment, swept his eyes across the hall, and glanced at Ye Fan in the hall, and a proud sneer appeared on his handsome face.
"Ye Fan, remember after the first round of our bet palace examination yesterday, we will see who is the real Canglan First Marquis of Wuhou"
Then, he just found a place in the spacious hall and sat down.
"Of course, I hope Mr. Rui will remember to fulfill the contract later."
Ye Fan shrugged his shoulders and was speechless.
When Rui Zifan was about to enter the exam room, he still didn't forget to demonstrate in public, for fear that others would not know. He didn't know what expression Rui Zifan would have after the exam.
After the big bell for the big test was ringed twenty-one times.
The prime minister Liu Guoliang, among the five examiners, saw that the students from the supervisors arrived, stood up and said to the supervisors in a serious manner: "Everyone is quiet. The first round of the Canglan Kingdom Palace Examination officially begins with the five chief ministers, Ling Hong Daqing, Cao Hao, Niu Shaojun, and Bian Heng clan leader, and the assessment results will be judged. Communication is prohibited in the palace examination, and each answers the papers. This round of literary examination will be held for a total of three hours, and the papers will be handed in a limited time, and the scores will be judged on the spot."
He raised his hand and shot a pure vitality into the beams and pillars of Chongwen Pavilion.
A large number of seal runes were engraved on the pillars of Chongwen Pavilion, and they were immediately stimulated by this energy.
In an instant, a huge sealing force blocked the entire Chongwen Pavilion and the outside world. Even in the examination room, the students in charge could not spread their minds and communicated with each other and could only answer questions by themselves.
The five examiners personally distributed test papers to nearly 100 supervisors in the hall. These test papers were prepared in advance within the past half month. In order to ensure that the test questions were not leaked, the five of them were in seclusion together for half a month, and they did not come to the Imperial College together until today.
Chapter completed!
