Through the imperial examination, he completed the leap from the white body to the official body, completed the turning point of fate, ascended to the court, faced the Son of Heaven, and expressed his views on the general trend of the world.

This is a scene that countless people can't dream of, and the people who can dream of it are still because Guo gave them enlightenment and gave them opportunities.

This opportunity is so important to them.

Therefore, even if many people don't know what the content of the exam is, they have to go to Luoyang to register for the exam.

Participation in this examination for the selection of officials does not require a recommendation, does not need to have a relationship with the upper echelons, and can be taken as long as you have a household registration.

The ordinary people in Luoyang watched this scene with eager eyes, and looked at those who were from the same background as them among the students who were going to take the imperial examination, and they were very envious.

They also want to find an opportunity to send their children to study, but they don't know what way to send their children to Taixue or other schools.

They are very eager, very envious, and even a little jealous.

It's just no chance, no way.

They still need to wait, many things are not achieved overnight, and Guo has not had time to build a ladder for the people at the bottom from the education level.

What he needs to do now is to make the imperial examination deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so that this imperial examination system, which excludes the influence of the inspection system, will take root in the Wei Empire and will never be shaken again.

At the end of February, when the weather warmed up after the intense and exciting New Year's Month, the qualification certification exam before the Bunju exam was held.

All students who sign up for the Wenju exam are required to take this physical fitness test.

The chief examiner is Guo Jia, a fierce man who advocates increasing this item, and he led the crowd to preside over the exam with a happy face and set a lot of standards.

Running laps, long jump, high jump, load-bearing, etc.

At that time, when Guo Peng saw these standards he formulated, he was very surprised, and felt that Guo Jia must have been forced by him to train muscles and enhance his physique for many years to become psychopathic, so he came up with such methods to torture the candidates.

But it's really necessary.

Guo Peng cut some meaningless content, lowered some standards, and took care of those Li Shu's children who were really poor because of lack of nutrition.

Then, Guo Jia happily watched the students running and humming, humming and jumping long, wiping their sweat and wearing rough clothes lying on the ground like dogs, commenting while watching, saying that this year's candidates are really useless and so on.

Guo must clarify that Guo Jia has never been a good person.

Eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, having all five poisons, and while his talent is outstanding, his personality is extremely bad.

No one will be surprised by this, nor will they feel disagreeable.

And his bad character and bad taste were fully demonstrated in this exam.

In addition, Guo Jia also applied to Guo Peng for the right to invigilate the physical fitness test before each subsequent imperial examination.

Of course, Guo Peng agreed, with a guy like Guo Jia who has a bad personality and likes to torture young people to help him keep an eye on this assessment, the average physical fitness of the officials of the Wei Empire will definitely be greatly improved in the future.

Not only that, Guo also had the idea of holding an official sports meeting for all officials in the future.

Maybe it's a good look.

For example, around Guo's birthday, he picked three days to hold an official sports meeting in Luoyang, forcing those officials who usually sit at their desks like a big man to get up and exercise, run and jump, get a good ranking and get a reward, and if you can't get a good ranking, there will be no reward and so on.

This idea took root in Guo's heart.

Of course, the students had a lot of dissatisfaction with the fact that they had to take part in the physical fitness assessment before the exam, and they learned from various sources that the proposer of this pre-exam was proposed by Guo Fengxiao, a high-ranking official of the General Staff Station and a child of the imperial family and the most trusted right-hand man of His Majesty the Emperor, and they immediately shut their mouths.

Some people just wanted to scold, but they immediately shut up.

What are you kidding, confronting the emperor's cronies and not wanting to live anymore?

When Guo Jia appeared in the examination room with a happy face and a proud appearance, the students all scolded Guo Jia in their hearts for being inhumane, but they still had to run and jump all kinds of under his leadership, and then they were tired and panting like a dog.

It seems that Guo Jia likes this kind of thing very much.

In the end, he did select candidates who could participate in the imperial examination, and he really brushed off a group of weak people.

Among them, there are scholars, as well as children of the poor family and Li Shu.

Whether it is subjective malice or objective needs, these people are indeed unable to bear the heavy work after becoming officials.

So Guo Peng strongly supported Guo Jia's choice.

On the first day of the third month of the eighth year of Yande, when the Nanzhong Campaign was in progress, the first imperial examination of the Wei Empire officially began.

According to the statistical report, the number of applicants for this year's Wenju examination reached 6,971, which was six times that of that year's Talent Appraisal Ceremony.

The number of people who took part in the martial arts examination was an order of magnitude smaller, only 2,737.

There is no way, compared with the Wenju exam, the requirements of the martial arts exam are higher, the entry threshold is higher, not only cultural literacy, but also physical fitness, and those who can participate are already very good elites.

The coverage of the Wenju examination is wider and the number of people participating is more, not counting those students who did not have time to come over and voluntarily gave up the first imperial examination because of the long distance.

Such a grand occasion was unexpected by most officials in the imperial court.

They never expected that once the identity restrictions were lifted, the Hanmen scholars and the Li Shu group would be able to burst out with such tremendous power.

It is conceivable that the number of participants in the second imperial examination next year will rise greatly.

With such a large number of participants, the number of selections is relatively small.

According to the current preliminary estimates, 1,200 people will be admitted to the two examinations of the civil and military examinations combined, with a little more than 800 people admitted to the Wenju and 400 people admitted to the martial arts.

Despite this, the competition in the Wenju exam is still far stronger than that in the martial arts exam, after all, the number of participants is not in the same order of magnitude.

So some people planned to rely on their own advantages in mastering knowledge to apply for the Shouyang Mountain Lecture Martial Arts Hall, and enter the Lecture Martial Arts Hall to participate in the study, maybe they can also take advantage of this loophole in the future.

Everyone knows this kind of thing, and the thing that everyone knows in front of everyone is obviously the kind that can't be exploited.

After the Shouyangshan Lecture Martial Arts Hall expands the source of students, at most three years, the number of applicants will undergo a big change, and the competitiveness of the martial arts examination will be as strong at that time.

Not to mention that there are many retired veterans who want to re-enter the army.

It's not that easy.

To put it mildly, the difficulty of the martial arts exam is even higher than that of the bunju exam.

It is necessary to test not only personal force, battlefield cooperation, and military knowledge, but also cultural knowledge.

The so-called both civil and military, grasp with both hands, and both hands must be hard.

So, exploiting loopholes or something, it doesn't exist.
