As the bell rang, the first elimination test was announced.

Nearly 1,000 candidates were eliminated, and it seemed that it was a little too unkind, which made people from all over the world dissatisfied, but it was beyond reproach, what Wuji Palace needed was a genius among geniuses.

This will be a few joys and a few worries.

On top of this assessment, the biggest highlights are Huo Hai from Jianshan, the two girls of the Lu family from Daliang Country and Xiang Yuanlang from the Western Wilderness, these people seem to have a faint taste of the Xu family six years ago.

In the big exam that year, Xu Xiangyi of the Xu family was the biggest dark horse, and now he is a very outstanding member among the many beginner disciples of Wuji Palace, and is unanimously optimistic about the palace master and several elders, so Xu Xiangyi is expected to enter the list of disciples of the Five Realms in the next few years.

Therefore, several elders of the Xu family today have naturally become the objects of fawning with the parents of the accompanying exams.

Although Huo Hai's appearance is not outstanding, his performance on the field is remarkable, he is one of the few people who makes Chen Shenping look at him differently today, and his memory is extremely amazing. Although the twin girls from the Lu family, Lu Xiaoyue and Lu Xiaoli, were not a little behind Huo Hai, but because they were twin girls, they were beautiful and had excellent memory, which impressed the people present.

There is also the Xiang family in the Western Wilderness, which completely inherits many advantages of the Xiang family, aside from appearance, the personality is stable, and the changes are not shocked, only these two points are worthy of many genius teenagers to learn, not to mention that the Xiang family is one of the four major families in the Western Wilderness, and the financial resources are staggering.

On the way back to the farmhouse, Xiao Jiansheng looked nervous and uncertain, and he did not dilute half a point because of the elimination level.

He was worried that in the next three assessments, he would also become the one who was eliminated, after all, he was facing a group of talented young people, all of whom were children of wealthy families, well-informed, and wanted to do the opposite, the few books he read were a little pitiful, limited to which few yellowed corner books on his adoptive father's desk, fortunately, what he wanted was not to stand out, as long as he could stay in Wuji Palace, it was enough.

In addition, he was worried that Liu Mubai would find out his identity.

Liu Mubai looked at his eyes today, he always felt that there were a lot of things hidden in those eyes, but fortunately, the appearance of the troublemaker distracted Liu Mubai's attention, otherwise Liu Mubai would have identified him on the spot?

Xiao Jiansheng didn't dare to think about it, he felt that it was useless to think too much, and now he was ready to go, and there was no place to retreat.

Xiao Jiansheng held the waist card tightly, although it was made for green bamboo, but it was gentle as jade in his hand, cool and refreshing, he just held it tightly, as if holding his sister's hand and was reluctant to let go.

Xiao Jiansheng walked neither fast nor slowly, and his mind was also unhurriedly thinking about many things about the morning memory exam.

For example, there are many things in "Keeping the Sky and Defending the Day", but he feels that what is said is a big truth, and it will definitely be useful for his future growth, so he simply walked forward with the flow of people while thinking about those boring words.

Heaven is the extreme, the Tao is the end, the outside of the sky is unknowable, the way is unthinkable, the way of heaven is eternal......

Can it be understood that the way of heaven is the ultimate, that is, the eternal, and what is the way of heaven?

Why is it unknowable beyond the heavens and unthinkable beyond the Tao?

Could it be that there is a heaven outside the sky? Or the more cultivators cultivate, the more idiotic they become, and finally they are confused about their cultivation.

He was also on a whim at the beginning, and even said that his Tao was eternal, and now people who have not even touched a layer of realm, dare to claim that their Tao is the way of heaven, he feels blushing when he thinks about it now, but fortunately, his voice was low at that time, and no one would notice him, Xiao Jiansheng was a little relieved.

On the way back to the farmhouse, Xiao Jiansheng saw a personable young man, surrounded by several serious-looking teenagers in the north.

One of the teenagers said: "Xiang Yuanlang, it's not a pity to be eliminated, after all, my father's old and large number of businesses need me to help run them, but I am a little inexplicably unwilling, how can you do it without interference, please let me know." ”

The young man called Xiang Yuanlang pretended to smile mysteriously and said: "There are only two possibilities, one is that if you are not among the cultivators, you will not feel the trouble of words between the lines, and second, you need to have full perseverance to eliminate interference in addition to enlightenment, so as to pierce the invisible fortress in the 10,000-character text, this is the mystery of the elimination test, it seems simple, but it is actually extremely mysterious." ”

Xiao Jiansheng listened attentively and nodded again and again.

When he was approaching the farmhouse, Xiao Jiansheng saw Huo Hai again, talking to a disciple of Wuji Palace, the two seemed very close, until Xiao Jiansheng appeared, Huo Hai glared at him fiercely, and then walked away quickly with the disciple.

Xiao Jiansheng looked at Huo Hai's sneaky figure and clenched his fists fiercely.

After a simple lunch, Xiao Jian didn't dare to sleep for fear of missing the afternoon assessment, until the disciples of Wuji Palace came over, confirmed the waist card and verified the name, and then led less than 200 people to Tianyi Academy again.

It's still the location of Qingshiping, and it's still the old teacher surnamed Chen, but the book in his hand has been changed, and it has been replaced by a stack of yellow single-page paper that has not yet been bound, the paper is very old, and the corners have been grinded out.

As they passed, Chen Shenping was intently turning over the yellowed papers.

As a bell rang, Chen Shenping stopped what he was doing, squinted at the next exam, his eyes were still the same cold, cold and a little cruel.

"Wen to Ming Tao is the most natural way, to understand the Tao, the text is beneficial to the world, to govern the family, to govern the country, to govern the world, the way of practice is also the same, only to understand the mystery, in order to re-take the glorious road of the predecessors, there was once an old friend, the high enough to become the world's Confucianism, become the world's civil and military hundred ministers on the case of frequent visitors, there have been studious people to comment, this humanities can be compared with the Great Xia Guoshi Lu Wen, today's assessment content is from the hands of this old friend. ”

Chen Shenping's thorough understanding of literature and Taoism in short, the next candidate listened to it with fascination, but unfortunately, Chen Shenping did not mention the name of his old friend, which only aroused everyone's curiosity.

At this moment, a boy who shook a folding fan said happily: "As far as I know, that Luwen has long since retired, but there is still one person in the Fengtian Dynasty, and the literature can be completely on par with Luwenzhong, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is famous all over the world. ”

Huo Hai answered with interest: "The person you are talking about is a scholar of Sun Tingbo?"

After Huo Hai finished speaking, his face was full of three points of pride, as if he felt that he was also a Fengtian person, and his face was bright, and he also deliberately glanced at Chen Shenping.

I saw Chen Shenping shaking his head with a cold face, and motioned to several disciples of Wuji Palace to distribute the exam papers.

After a few breaths, Xiao Jiansheng gently took the exam paper as thin as a cicada's wings, carefully flattened it, and after he saw the title of this thousand-character essay clearly, the two sword eyebrows suddenly condensed, and a heavy snort blew the exam paper, he trembled and slowly straightened his hands, and then closed his eyes.

I don't know how long it has been, but there is still no sign of him starting to write.

Liu Mubai glanced at him inadvertently again, Chen Shenping looked at this uncompetitive guy, if it weren't for the presence of the palace master, it is estimated that he would have raised his ears and drove people away, it was really a piece of rotten wood.

Some candidates who had already finished answering let out a sigh of relief, looked around, smiled lightly, and nodded at their exam papers again and again when they saw Xiao Jiansheng, among which Huo Hai answered the fastest, and he put down his pen as soon as possible.

Almost as soon as all the candidates straightened their waists and waited for the bell to ring, Xiao Jiansheng finally raised his head and opened his eyes.

He did not hesitate to write three lines of small letters neatly under the line of "ministers do not seek thorns, the world is harmonious, the people are happy, the east supports the plow, the west repairs the level, the south canal divides the water, and the north grass is lonely, then the gold can be pulled".

In the first line, the minister does not seek thorns, and the world is harmonious, and it should be: the minister does not seek thorns, and the world is peaceful.

The second line, the full text of "The Theory of Governing the Great Harmony" is 9,762 words, 173 of the same words, and it is necessary to look at it in its entirety to understand the meaning of the Great Harmony.

The third line, that is, a brief description of the author of the "Treatise on Governance", he once again revised it with small letters, changing the elegant person to a person who seeks injustice for the common people in the world.

Just when Xiao Jiansheng finished writing the last character heavily, he found that Qingshiping was unusually silent, and everyone was staring at him.

He saw that the people in the Spring Breeze Pavilion were pointing at him.

He saw that Chen Shenping had already stopped sorting out the yellow pages, and his eyes were unusually light.

......

Xiao Jiansheng's face was solemn, he carefully smoothed the exam paper and straightened it, bowed three times respectfully to the exam paper, and quietly retreated.
