In the small courtyard at dusk, next to the corridor outside the bamboo forest, two people were sitting.

Zhou Zijin looked calm and looked at the rustling bamboo forest, without seeing the loss of composure just now.

Su Che, who was beside him, rubbed his shoulders, was more nervous, and looked elsewhere as if his eyes were dodging, and even his breathing was slightly chaotic.

He was wondering why the other party appeared here? Is it the martial arts ritual that will be tomorrow, so he came to cheer for himself, or did he just want to come to take the exam for his own kung fu?

Su Che didn't ask, he was still embarrassed.

"How did you find me?" Zhou Zijin spoke first, his tone as calm as usual, and as cold as her temperament now.

This reminded Su Che of Ye Ziyun she saw back then. It seemed that her temperament was the same, but she seemed to be born like this, and now Zhou Zijin seemed to be indifferent and cold.

In his intuition, something seemed to happen to the other party, but Su Che had no idea.

He said, "It's the wind."

"Smell?" Zhou Zijin frowned.

"No, it's just a kind of, well, a strange aura will appear in the wind." Su Che thought about the feeling he had just now, but he still did not look at her.

"It turns out that it's not my own reason." Zhou Zijin seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. She asked, "Who did you think it was at the beginning?"

Su Che expressed his previous suspicion and said, "I rarely leave the mansion and experience less. If I want to kill me, I can only think of opponents who have interests."

"Very good." Zhou Zijin nodded, "When you can start to think about people's hearts from the interests, you are the real growth."

Su Che nodded silently. This kind of growth cannot be said to be good or bad.

"When did you find out it was mine?" Zhou Zijin asked.

"When you showed up," Su Che said, "I knew it was you since you appeared behind me."

Because the two were too familiar with each other, he did not say anything. This familiarity was enough to offset all disguise as long as the other party appeared beside him.

Zhou Zijin pursed her lips and looked over. What she saw was that the gentleness of a young man was less and the cold side face she had grown up.

Su Che felt her gaze, her eyes were slightly confused, and she resisted not looking over.

"Tomorrow is the martial arts competition. The first game of the external test is to compete in cavalry and shooting. How confident are you?" Zhou Zijin said softly.

The martial arts are to select talented generals for the army. Naturally, it is not just about the level of personal martial arts, so this also limits the vast majority of people in the martial arts world.

It is not so easy to practice when riding and shooting, and few people in the world will practice. This is the strongest ability that will burst out on the battlefield, rather than ordinary fights against the enemy.

Su Che has practiced riding over the years and is already pretty good. With his physical strength and internal energy, he can still shoot the target with his body and internal energy. He is not good at all.

I think there are not many people who can get points in this subject. He had known some people who participated in the martial arts. After the nobles, there were many people who were good at riding and shooting, but they were just as good at practicing, and there were also people who were good at shooting in their ordinary background, and they also had various shortcomings.

Without the support of various resources, it is rare to make a comeback when practicing martial arts.

Su Che thought for a while and said, "It should not be difficult for middle and upper level."

Zhou Zijin knew it naturally and said, "Niu Ben, son of General Xuanwei, Niu Jingzhong, is good at riding and shooting. There are also a few other people with backgrounds who have also put their bets on this game. Just try your best at this level, and don't force it too much."

Su Che nodded.

...

The martial arts exam is a test of internal, external, and internal test, but it does not require that it be as complicated as the imperial examination. It only gives you a question to solve the questions. The article does not need to be too gorgeous, there are too many words, it is just short and concise.

The first game of the external test is riding and shooting, and the second game is a battle. The opponent is selected to go to the ring by drawing lots. This is the exam for the school’s personal martial arts practice, and naturally it is also the most important subject.

Those with high scores in the internal and external tests are recorded as Wu Juren, while those with the victory are “Wu Jieyuan”.

He only waited half a month later to enter the palace, and his Majesty personally gave the exam questions, and then set up a beating in the palace. One of them was the martial jinshi, and the first place was the "martial scholar".

There are 800 people who can enter the Daliang Society and Examination Martial Arts. They each have their own strengths and know where they should put their hope of winning.

The most taboo thing when participating in a martial arts is to be injured. Over the years, there have been many people who have made bad moves on the ring, so that they will not allow their opponents to gain an advantage in the next palace examination. Therefore, many individuals with weak martial arts skills and stronger opponents will admit defeat when they go to the ring.

In order to protect yourself and prevent yourself from being injured.

Martial arts are not about showing off one's own courage, but about a comprehensive selection.

It will be as fair as possible, but in fact, with the exceptional arrangements of noble children such as generals and the participation of the descendants of great heroes from all walks of life, for hundreds of years, very few civilians can stand out.

But without exception, every competition will include people from the Ministry of War and the military. They will select good seedlings they like. Even if the other party has shortcomings in some aspects, as long as they are attracted to it, they may still make a fortune.

Therefore, exerting all your strength and another degree of tragic tragedy has become an opportunity to participate in the martial arts and a path for civilians.

Su Che naturally didn't need to consider this. He participated in the martial arts ceremony not to join the army, but to fight for a family - how can a tiger father have a dog son?

...

"You have thoughts in your heart, which is very worry-free." Zhou Zijin looked at him, and after a while of silence, he said, "And now that you have a long cultivation level, I have nothing to teach you."

Su Che was stunned and looked over subconsciously.

The two of them looked at each other, their eyes were mostly soft, but they seemed to have a lot to say, but they could not speak. Or they didn't know how to say it.

"That, I'm sorry for what happened last time." Su Che said nervously.

Zhou Zijin nodded, "I forgot everything."

Su Che carefully looked at her expression, calm, her eyelashes were long, her eyes were bright, and she looked good everywhere, and she couldn't get tired of looking at it no matter how she looked.

He was shocked and secretly spat that he was thinking about something, but he felt a little disappointed in his heart.

"I...I'm seventeen this year..." His words were slightly bumpy, and his ears were slightly red.

Zhou Zijin was stunned, and the complexity flashed in her eyes. She chuckled, "I know, my sister is twenty-three this year."

Su Che stuttered, then scratched his head, "Well, my father said that my elder brother was thinking about getting married at my age. No, he asked me before the New Year, if I had any women I like."

As he said that, his eyes lowered, and he didn't dare to look at the person in front of him, and his voice became even more unheard.

"Then what did you say?" Zhou Zijin looked at him and bit his lip gently.

"I said, I said no." Su Che whispered.

"Oh." Zhou Zijin just responded.

"I didn't mean that." Su Che was anxious and subconsciously reached out his hand, but as soon as he lifted his hand, he paused and fell back.

He na Na didn't know what to say, but just looked at the person in front of him with a little earnest and uneasy.

Who is Zhou Zijin? Su Che's thoughts since childhood have almost nowhere to hide in front of her.

She whispered: "I know what you are thinking, so after the martial arts, there should be an answer."

Su Che's eyes lit up, and his hand holding the sword was a little forceful, and he was as happy as if he didn't know how to put it.
