The martial arts test has ended, and the first imperial examination of the imperial court has also ended. The next thing the candidates have to do is to wait for the results of the literary test.
Li Muzheng was about to leave the school when a voice suddenly came from behind him.
"Wu Zhuangyuan stays."
Li Mu turned around, followed the source of the sound, and saw a figure walking towards this side.
The man had a tall figure and a square face. As he walked slowly towards him, a strong sense of oppression hit his face.
All the candidates for the martial arts test know this person. He is the chief examiner of this martial arts test, the left minister of the Ministry of War, and is also a strong man in the sixth realm.
Li Mu clasped his fists and asked, "Is there anything else you can do, Sir?"
The Minister of War smiled and said: "I have been away from the army for several years. I have not seen such a wonderful martial arts battle for many years. I am happy to see the hunter. I feel a little itchy for a while and I can't help but want to compete with Wu Zhuangyuan.
."
Li Mu looked at him in astonishment. No matter how confident he was in himself, he was not arrogant enough to challenge Dong Xuan.
Seemingly sensing his thoughts, the Minister of War added: "Don't worry, Wu Zhuangyuan, the two of us don't use spells or compete with supernatural powers. We simply compete with each other in martial arts, and we'll finish it off."
Now that the words have come to this, Li Mu can no longer refuse.
He nodded, pointed to the school field next to him, and said, "Please."
On the school grounds, the officials in charge of the martial arts examination and the candidates were about to leave, but their footsteps suddenly stopped.
On the school field ahead, two figures were fighting at close range, and they were inextricably fighting.
The Ministry of War officials initially thought that someone was fighting in the school grounds. When they got closer, they discovered that it was actually the Vice Minister and the top military scholar Li Mu.
Afterwards, expressions of extreme shock appeared on many people's faces.
Who is Mr. Shilang? Before he became the Shilang of the Ministry of War, he was a famous fierce general in the Great Zhou Dynasty. He killed countless strong men from the Demon Kingdom on the battlefield. In terms of martial arts attainments alone, few people in the entire Great Zhou Dynasty could defeat him.
he.
A young man who is not as good as a weakling can actually be on par with him in martial arts.
You must know that martial arts is different from magic and magical powers. As long as you have enough magic power, you can master magic and magical powers. However, without experiencing life-and-death fights and without a lot of combat experience, it is difficult to make progress in martial arts.
Although he is not very young, his martial arts attainments are so profound that it is simply unbelievable.
If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn't have believed it.
The Zhou brothers and Prince Nan watched from a distance, with fears on their faces.
They have lived in the academy for the past two years and have heard of Li Mu's name.
Especially the Zhou brothers. Because of Zhou Chu's death, Li Mu and the Zhou family have a life-and-death feud that is difficult to resolve.
But this does not mean that they take Li Mu seriously. Everything he does is just relying on the support of the Queen. If it were done by anyone else, the result would be the same.
However, today's martial arts test shocked them greatly.
They were trained as princes. A qualified prince must be able to govern the country with literary skills and be able to stabilize the country with military skills. In terms of cultivation, they have the confidence to compete with any genius in the world, including the core disciples of the four sects and six sects.
.
Only this Li Mu shattered their confidence.
Zhou Feng took a deep breath and said: "Martial arts cannot represent all the strength. Practitioners' real fighting skills, talismans and magic weapons are the key to victory."
Although this is somewhat self-comforting, it is also true. It is not uncommon in the world of cultivation for low-level practitioners to use high-level talismans to instantly kill mid-level practitioners. In most cases, when practitioners fight, it depends on whose talisman they are.
There are more, the elixirs are better, and the magic weapons are stronger. Except on the battlefield, martial arts are not of much use.
Such a person can be a good general, but no matter how powerful the general is, he is still just a minister.
Despite being frightened and shocked, Zhou Feng breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, Li Mu's surname was Li and not Xiao. Otherwise, many people in the Zhou family would have been unable to sleep because of him.
Prince Nan also breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Li Mu was not a descendant of the Zhou family. Otherwise, he would have become the biggest obstacle for the Xiao family to regain the throne...
…
On the school grounds.
Li Mu and the Minister of War have been in a stalemate for a quarter of an hour.
In the past quarter of an hour, Li Mu had just seen what a truly strong person was.
The Minister of War has extremely rich combat experience. After hundreds of moves, Li Mu could not find a flaw in him. This kind of person's understanding of martial arts may have reached an extremely advanced level.
Opposite Li Mu, the Minister of War's eyes became more and more shocked.
Li Mu didn't find a flaw in him, and he also didn't find a flaw in Li Mu.
His martial arts experience was honed through countless life and death crises and thousands of battles. A young man, no matter how talented he is, cannot achieve this.
The only possibility is that he completely inherited the martial arts attainments of a certain martial arts master.
In the martial arts test, in addition to not being able to use foreign objects such as talismans and magic weapons, Taoist magical powers can be used as much as possible. Even if he completely inherits the martial arts attainments of a martial arts master, it is still within the scope allowed by the martial arts test.
After a few more moves, there were more and more people around. Li Munai couldn't do anything to the Minister of War, and it was difficult for the Minister of War to defeat him. He took the initiative to retreat and said: "How about we call it a day?"
The left minister of the Ministry of War nodded, and then asked: "Wu Zhuangyuan's martial arts attainments are not weaker than those of a fierce general who has fought a hundred battles. It is rare among the younger generation. I wonder who Wu Zhuangyuan learned from?"
Li Mudao: "My master's Taoist name is Lao Tzu."
The Minister of War thought for a while, shook his head and said, "I am ignorant and have never heard of it."
Li Mu smiled and said: "Master, he is an old man named Xianyun Yehe. He is devoted to pursuing the supreme path. Not many people in the world know his name."
The Minister of War stopped asking the question and said, "I wonder what Wu Zhuangyuan's plans are after the imperial examination?"
Li Mu said: "I don't have any plans at the moment. It all depends on His Majesty's arrangements."
The Minister of the Ministry of War looked at him and said: "I, the martial arts champion, has a strong mind power, which is no less than that of veterans who have been in power for decades. He also has such martial arts attainments. If he is a general, he must be a brave general..."
After working on it for a long time, it turned out that the Minister of War wanted to poach the Queen. Li Mu refused directly and politely said: "We will talk about it when we have the opportunity in the future."
The Minister of War did not press him, and looked at him and asked: "Wu Zhuangyuan has a lot of telepathy power, but it is very messy. Could it be that you don't understand the method of controlling telepathy?"
Li Mu was stunned for a moment and asked: "What is the method of mind control?"
The Minister of War saw that he really didn't understand, but he didn't explain it directly. He said, "You will know after you experience it for yourself."
After he finished speaking, Li Mu suddenly noticed an invisible aura radiating from the body of the Minister of War.
Under this momentum, Li Mu couldn't help but take a few steps back, with a look of shock on his face.
At that moment, a powerful telepathic aura erupted from the body of the Minister of War, reminding Li Mu of Vice President Huang.
That day at Ziwei Palace, he used this move and almost seriously injured Li Mu.
The Minister of War explained: "This is the power of telepathy that I obtained from countless soldiers. Telepathy is a mysterious power. Its function is not only to accelerate the absorption of spiritual energy, but also to gather telepathy into momentum and form an attack."
Li Mu cupped his fists and said, "Please give me some advice, Sir."
He had not experienced the hearty martial arts battle just now for a long time. The Minister of War admired Li Mu very much. This mind control technique was not a secret. He moved his lips slightly and whispered a few words to Li Mu.
The practice of telekinesis is a partial method. Li Mu only knows how to use telekinesis to speed up his practice. He has never heard that you can attack with telekinesis.
The method of controlling thoughts is actually a kind of magical power. After listening to the message from the Minister of War, Li Mu made secrets with his hands, circulated the magic power, and released the power of thoughts with himself as the center.
People around the school grounds and onlookers felt a kind of pressure coming towards their faces.
Several Ministry of War officials were fine. They just trembled and steadied themselves.
Most of the candidates around him took a few steps back, and a few of them who were more advanced in cultivation actually fainted.
All the candidates looked at Li Mu with shock and fear.
The Minister of the Ministry of War spent some spiritual power on the fainted candidates from a distance, woke them up, and then said to Li Mu: "This is your first time to control thoughts, and you can't control them yet. With more follow-up practice, you will be able to control them in a few months."
flexible."
Li Mu had already realized the wonderful effect of telekinesis. He hugged his fists to the Minister of War and said, "Thank you, Lord Minister."
The Minister of War waved his hand and said to everyone: "The entry into the martial arts examination is over, let's disperse. Three days later, outside the examination hall, the results of the literary examination will be announced..."
This imperial examination lasted two days for the literary test and only took most of half a day for the martial arts test.
Unlike the literary test, the results of the martial arts test are released on the same day.
The imperial court's first imperial examination was already attracting much attention. After the martial arts test was over, the news quickly spread throughout the capital.
Before the martial arts test, people had already made speculations about who would win the first place in the martial arts test.
Brothers Zhou Zheng and Zhou Feng are the sons of Shangshu Ling and the most outstanding students of Qingyun Academy. They are the crown prince of Nanwang and are leaders in literary and military skills among the younger generation.
The Zhou family and the Xiao royal family have invested too much resources in them. Since a few years ago, they have been regarded as being trained by the prince of Zhou Dynasty. The number one scholar in both civil and military examinations will probably be born among them.
No one expected that it would be Li Mu who won the top prize in martial arts.
Li Mu is of course well known to everyone in the divine capital.
But the reason why he is famous is because he punished evildoers and forced the court to abolish unfair laws. It is because he spoke so bluntly that all the courtiers in the palace couldn't hold their heads up. And because he made decisions for the people and was not afraid of the powerful. The academy has completely changed.
to eliminate the unhealthy trends in the divine capital.
He got his name from his courage, his blood, his justice... and his good looks.
After the martial arts test, Li Mu told them with facts that besides these, he also had strength.
Li Mansion.
When Li Mu walked into the house, Xiaobai ran over excitedly and said, "Sister Zhou showed us just now, my benefactor is so powerful..."
Li Mu looked around and asked, "Is your sister Zhou at home too?"
Zhou Wu walked out of the kitchen with a bowl of noodles and said, "This is what I reward you for."
