"Hahaha, I really didn't expect that Lin Yun would have such attainments in chess and strategy at such a young age." Lord Zhen Guo said with great admiration.
The Internal Affairs Master then said: "I just don't know how he is in other aspects. The position of the Tenth Army of the State cannot be filled by someone who knows chess and strategy."
Lin Yun waved his hands fearlessly and said to all the civil and military officials present: "If you want to compete, just let it go. No matter what field you are in, I will challenge you."
After hearing Lin Yun's words, the faces of all the civil and military officials present turned a little ugly.
Although Lin Yun's tone was very calm, it contained an unconcealable contempt, as if he didn't take the civil and military officials present at all.
Before the Internal Affairs Lord and the Foreign Lord could signal, a large number of civil and military officials stood up with indignation and challenged Lin Yun from various fields.
"Hua Wuxi, a fourth-level alchemist, would like to discuss alchemy techniques with you."
"Nangong, a fourth-level weapon refiner, is making swords. I want to compare my weapon-refining skills with you."
"I am Shangguan Jinhua, a fourth-level formation mage. I would like to test your formation formation skills with you."
"I am Nangong Bushai, a fourth-level talisman master. I would like to compete with you in the field of talisman making."
"I am a third-grade astrologer, Zhan Qiulang, and I would like to compete with you on your knowledge of astronomy and geography."
"I, Chen Wenqing, a third-grade bachelor, would like to compare my knowledge of natural physics with you."
Not only members of the three major families, but also ordinary officials outside the three major families also got involved.
These ordinary officials came to challenge Lin Yun not because they wanted to prevent Lin Yun from serving in the Tenth Army, but simply because they wanted to compete with Lin Yun in the field they loved.
Because Lin Yun said that he was not afraid of any field, it aroused their curiosity and competitive spirit, so they rushed to challenge Lin Yun.
"I'll go first!"
"No, let me go first!"
"Don't argue, let me go first!"
Before everyone could negotiate the order, Lin Yun said impatiently: "No need to argue anymore, you all can come together!"
The originally noisy palace hall fell into unprecedented silence the moment Lin Yun finished speaking.
The movements of all the civil and military officials in the audience froze as if they were petrified at this moment.
Everyone was dumbfounded and looked at Lin Yun with completely shattered expressions, as if they had heard the most incredible thing in the world.
"You...what did you just say?" Hua Wuxi asked in disbelief.
"I don't want to waste time. You all go together. I want you to lose together." Lin Yun said in a light tone, as if he was talking about an insignificant matter.
Lose together?
What an arrogant tone!
Everyone froze on the spot and couldn't help but take a deep breath.
How confident do you have to be to say such arrogant things?
"You mean, you have to deal with challenges in multiple fields at the same time?" Shangguan Jinhua looked suspicious.
In his opinion, this kind of thing is impossible to do anyway.
As the saying goes, you can't do two things at once. Anyone who can make elixirs and arrange formations at the same time is already admirable enough.
But at this time, Lin Yun actually boasted about Haikou and said that he would compete with others in multiple fields at the same time. This is simply a lunatic suffering from delusion!
Lin Yun still said calmly: "As long as any one of you can surpass me in any field, even if I fail the test, I will voluntarily give up serving in the Ten National Army."
"Haha, this is what you said, don't regret it if you lose." Mr. Internal Affairs narrowed his eyes and smiled.
The King of Nanxia was frightened when he heard this. He really wanted Lin Yun to shine so that all civil and military officials would recognize Lin Yun's strength, but he did not expect that Lin Yun would be so high-profile.
This place is still showing off, this is simply challenging the impossible!
The King of Nanxia hurriedly said to Lin Yun: "Lin Yun, this matter is of great importance. If you are not sure enough, don't be in the limelight."
"Don't worry, my king, I'm sure of it." Lin Yun said confidently, as if he already had a chance to win.
Wai Xiaojun waved the folding fan in his hand twice, and then said to the King of Nanxia: "Your Majesty, since the young man is so confident, why don't we give him a chance to show off?"
Lord Zhenguo also nodded: "I also want to see where this young man's confidence comes from."
Seeing that Lin Yun was so confident, and that the three monarchs all agreed, the King of Nanxia had nothing to say, and the matter of Lin Yun competing with many people at the same time was settled.
None of the civil and military officials were willing to go together. After all, they all have prominent positions and outstanding abilities.
Let them compete with a boy at the same time, and the competition is still in the field they are best at. This is simply an insult to them, and even if they win, they will lose face.
However, the King of Nanxia and the Three Lords agreed. Even if they thought it was humiliating, they had no choice but to go together.
Not long after, the tools used in various competitions were delivered to the palace hall by the royal guards. Among them were refining materials and books.
The rules for competitions in these four fields, including alchemy and weapon refining, formation of formations and talismans, are very simple. Whoever produces a higher-grade product will be the winner.
As for competitions in astronomy, geography, and natural physics, the rules in these two fields are equally uncomplicated.
The two scholars used their knowledge from the books on site to question Lin. If Lin Yun could answer the question, he would be considered a winner. If he was stumped by the two scholars' questions, he would be considered a loser.
After some preparations, those who were competing with Lin Yun all took their positions and came to the props to start operating.
One person forges weapons, one person refines elixirs, one person draws talismans, and one person arranges formations.
The movements of the four people were all skillful and coherent, without any sloppiness. Their techniques were smooth and smooth, and they were completed in one go.
However, Lin Yun, who was performing four operations at the same time, had a much simpler and rougher technique, which seemed very unprofessional, even very perfunctory, just as casual as when he played chess.
Seeing Lin Yun's amateurish appearance, several of Lin Yun's opponents suddenly felt confident.
The officials who were watching also sneered sarcastically.
"It seems that Lin Yun is not proficient in these fields. As he said, he only has a brief understanding of them."
"Looking at his rough operation, the products produced are basically the same as scraps."
"With this little Kung Fu as a three-legged cat, he still dares to shout and challenge civil and military officials. I really don't know where he gets his confidence."
While Lin Yun was performing the four operations, two scholars, Zhan Qiulang and Chen Wenqing, were also quickly flipping through books, looking for in-depth test questions to question Lin Yun.
While flipping through the third astronomy book, astrologer Zhan Qiulang's eyes suddenly lit up and he seemed to have found a profound question.
He looked up at Lin Yun and read word by word: "Little brother Lin Yun, where is the center of all things in the void?"
