Although Qianyuan Academy is in a downtown city, it has always been covered by the Qimen formation. Even if the people of Yujing live next to it, it is difficult to see its true appearance at first sight. They can only see its scales from the strange stories that have been passed down from the mouth to ears. It is rare to encounter Qianyuan Academy's admission of disciples, so the people will naturally not miss the opportunity to watch the fun. After all, Qianyuan Academy's recruitment of people is not as frequent as those of the Jinshi Mingjing. It is common to be held every year, but the Qianyuan Academy's admission of disciples is not fixed, at least two or three years, with the longest interval of nearly twenty years.

The examinations in the academy were divided into four sessions, and only the first three were held in the Gongyuan. Today, the edge of the Gongyuan was surrounded by people. In addition to men, women, young and old, various carriages and chariots could be seen everywhere. The green canopy, golden tent curtains, and colorful peacock fans reflected each other in the morning light. The princes and nobles in the purple robe were waiting to catch the good son-in-law under the list, while the girls waiting to marry in the green boudoir were looking for the good man.

These lively people were separated by a white wall of the Gongyuan. The Qingyang flag on the black tiles swayed lightly in the wind. Nearly 400 candidates gathered in the courtyard, but the surrounding area was extremely quiet. Everyone was named one after another. After a while, the shouts of "Li Dan, Qing Tomb of Lizhou" sounded. Li Chan took a step forward and was taken to the Jianzhao Building to the west by the official.

There is an ancient mirror hanging high on the beam in Jianzhao Building, and the name of this building comes from this. This mirror has an extraordinary origin. In ancient times, there was a spiritual clan under the command of the ancestors of the people who could recognize people's hearts and was named "Qu Yishi". This ancient mirror is named "Qu Yi". It is said to be a magical treasure cast and grinding by Qu Yishi, and has the power to distinguish treacherous. Li Chan went under the mirror and looked up. Although the mirror surface reflected his appearance, his reflected eyes were still as dark as a vague paint. He breathed a sigh of relief and was taken aside by the officials of the Ministry of Rites' Testimonial Office.

The custom of the Dayong Kingdom respects talents, so the body search before the exam was not severe. The official only checked the items Li Chan carried, searched the arms and a few places under his armpits, and then released him out of the Jianzhao Building.

Hundreds of tables were placed under the open space and corridors outside the building. Li Chan's eyes swept past and saw a few familiar faces among the candidates. Then, under the guidance of the official, she sat behind a long table under the corridor in the northwest.

It was the chilly spring weather, and there was no wind shelter around. Those who entered the venue had sat for a long time. Some people added charcoal to the hand stove, some people picked up Bai Cijun and added water to the inkstone, some people rubbed their hands in the cold wind, and some people closed their eyes to rest with their sleeves.

Li Chan put the lacquer box he brought with him on the table, arranged the pen, ink, paper and ink, untied the water bag around his waist and hung it on the edge of the table, then placed the hand stove at his feet, took out a piece of meat pie from the lacquer box and heated it on the stove. When he ate the meat pie and patted the dough shavings with a little oil stain between his fingers, all the candidates from Qianyuan Academy had entered the venue.

The host of this exam was quite complicated. Chongxuan and Xuanchan invited two high-level scholars to take charge of the exam, and the Ministry of Rites was responsible for the examination. Qianyuan Academy only had a bachelor who was in charge of the exam, named Chen Yuzhai. At this time, Chen Yuzhai appeared, and his tongue was thunderous. He said something like "You are rich and poor in your knowledge and traversing mountains and rivers", and praised the students vigorously. Then he swears to ensure that "if you have a minister, you will be free." The officials of the examination department issued the exam papers one after another. At this point, the spring exam in Qianyuan Academy officially began...

The first three exams in Qianyuan Academy are similar to those in Jinshi, and the content is similar to those in Taoist holy places like Qingque Palace. The first exam in Qingque Palace is the Taoist scripture, and the first exam in Qianyuan Academy is the Postscript. As for the content of the Postscript, it is based on the Three Rites, the Three Genealogy of Spring and Autumn, poetry, books, and the nine great sutras, and select twenty passages. It also includes the five thousand words of the Taoist "Tao Te Ching" and the Buddhist "Amitabha Sutra" in the two most widely circulated classics in the Dayong Kingdom. These scriptures are pasted with paper to allow candidates to fill the gaps.

From this subject, you can see the difficulty of the spring exam in the Qianyuan Academy. According to the usual example, only three characters are posted, but the number of words posted by the Qianyuan Academy is uncertain. Not to mention, the test questions are twice as high. Only seven of these thirty passages can pass the thirty passages. But even if you pass this level, you have to pass the B level and successfully pass the subsequent three levels, so that you can have the opportunity to serve as a post in the academy, book translation and other positions in the academy. As for those who want to compete for the position of twelve direct bachelors, you must have to pass all thirty passages, and have no mistakes and be on the Academic Year.

As the saying goes, the three religions do not separate their families. Although Li Chan was displaced in her early years, she had accumulated some knowledge in the two years she studied Taoism in Qingque Palace. In addition, after taking the Taoism, her mind became more and more agile and could almost never forget it. According to his imagination, although the examination of the Qianyuan Academy exams was large, it was not uncommon. In the end, it would not be difficult to escape from the scope of these eleven scriptures.

But after the opening of the paper, he found that he had underestimated the examiner's ability. Apart from the thirty chapters on the paper, the other ones chose either the quatrains of the lonely scriptures or the pronunciation words. Some exam questions even only reveal the last two words, which is not an exaggeration to say that they are deliberately making things difficult.

Li Chan filled out a few scriptures and looked curiously at the side. The desks in the examination room were only one foot apart, and there was nothing in the middle to block the view. Not to mention practitioners, they only needed to practice martial arts to the innate perfection and practice the eyesight that could be observed in the dark room, so that they could easily see other people's test papers.

But as Li Chan saw, the other people's test papers seemed to be a pool of water that had been muddy, and only some handwriting could be vaguely seen. In amazement, Qingyan blinked and finally saw some strange qi. These qi surround the entire Gongyuan and wandered around the desks. These desks that seemed to be placed casually were actually arranged into a formation.

Li Chan was a little curious, and the person who answered the answers around him also met him. It was Sun Hengnian, the first person to write a poem in Xinyuan's elegant collection when Li Chan first arrived in Yujing. At this time, Sun Hengnian also noticed Li Chan's gaze, and was stunned at first, then frowned, and turned his body slightly to block the test paper.

Li Chan raised her eyebrows, was silent for a while, shook her head and smiled silently, then stopped trying to spy on the formation, lowered her head and answered intently.

There are only hundreds of words to fill in the thirty scriptures, but they are very laborious. The students wished to search their hearts and scrape their stomachs and recall the eleven scriptures word by word. Unfortunately, the scriptures are completed within one hour. In the Gongyuan, the sound of clothes rubbing against the tabletop, breathing and sighing came one after another. The sound of the lotus under the Crane Tower being so weak that it is almost impossible to detect, but the most harsh...

Until the Lotus Leak turned to Si Shi, the Taoist sect master who was in charge of the examination room picked up the inconspicuous copper bell in his hand and shook it gently. When! The fist-sized copper bell made a sound like a yellow bell. Some of the candidates put down their pens confidently, some looked anxious, and some sighed in despair. After Li Chan wrote thirty posts, she was still a little uncertain about two of the test questions and was still considering them, but the test paper was suddenly lifted by the nameless wind.

As the paper rolled, three hundred and ninety-two test papers flew off the table like wings, and fell to Chen Yuzhai on Heming Tower like snowflakes, neatly piled up into three piles. Before the test papers could fall steadily, Chen Yuzhai picked up a test paper, glanced at it, threw it away casually, but the test papers floated steadily in front of the master of the exam.

"Yuzhou Zhangliu, but!"

After Chen Yuzhai finished judging one volume, he kept moving his hands and picked up another volume. This time, he was talking about "Jingzhou Yuanshoutian, Yike!"

The paper pages were rolled up, and the anger sounded. After every sentence Chen Yuzhai said, a candidate's expression would change in the examination room. Although there were about 300 students in the subject of the postscript, most of the rest were in the subject of B, and only occasionally the sound of "some certain subject A" would sound, which attracted envious eyes. When Chen Yuzhai reported to the 300th person, thirty-nine people had already obtained A in the subject of the postscript.

After Chen Yuzhai reported the names of 314 people, he said it, and then put aside the test papers and shouted again: "Sun Hengnian, Wuzhou, Department B!"

When Sun Hengnian heard this, he finally felt relieved, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then he felt a little unwilling. This time, there were two postscripts that were too tricky and had some idea. As long as there was a moment of consideration, even the A-Causes could take a gamble. He shook his head and sighed secretly, turning his head to look at Li Dan beside him, thinking that this person had not shown up for a long time, and he could even gain some reputation in Yujing City. But although the paperwork is important, the postscript exam is real talent and knowledge. This person looked around and looked around during the exam, and seemed to be unsure. If he couldn't even pass this first level, he would be a laughing stock.

"Li Dan, Lizhou, Jiake!"
Chapter completed!
