"It's not a loss to Pei Yuandan, and it's not in vain that I spend so much money and effort. ”

Yi Chen smiled slightly, but he didn't stop, but put the remaining thousand Liuwei Dihuang Pills into the Dan furnace again and continued to refine.

When the next day, when it was dark.

Yi Chen had already completely refined the second Peiyuan Pill that he had refined, and his strength had increased again.

From two thousand catties to two thousand five hundred catties.

Compared to the effect of the first one, it has been reduced by half.

However, talking is better than nothing, at least it has increased a lot of strength!

In the next few days, Yi Chen's life was as usual, and on the surface, there was no change in the slightest.

However, his mastery and familiarity with the dirty realm are becoming more and more accurate.

It's like an old car for a new car, or a Volkswagen for a BMW.

No matter how good the driving skills are, it takes a while to get used to them.

......

Finally!

The spring test is coming.

In the spring and autumn examinations twice a year, those with excellent grades in each college have the hope of being promoted to the rank of lifter.

Ordinary civilians, when they see officials above the ninth grade, they have to kneel.

However, as long as you pass the exam, it means that your identity is different from that of a civilian, and you don't need to kneel unless you see a senior member above the first grade.

Yunshan Academy, as a large academy in Yujing City.

Today, there is even more traffic at the door, surrounded by people.

It's all the parents and elders of those students.

Extravagant carriages, queues of servants and maids, I don't know what kind of Lantern Festival it is.

As soon as Yi Chen arrived at Yunshan Academy, he was taken to the examination room.

The examination room here is like the examination room of the ancient imperial examination, with rows of seats separated like lattices.

On your left, right, above and behind, there are baffles, only the front is empty, and every move is in the sight of the invigilator.

Even the table has a simple table.

There are no drawers underneath, no partitions, it is impossible to hide anything.

In this proctoring environment, cheating becomes very difficult.

What's more, before everyone enters the examination room, they have to go through a body search to ensure absolute fairness.

When!when!

Three long bells rang.

"Take a seat!"

All the students quickly sat down, and the audience was silent.

"Send exam papers!"

"It's time for the exam!"

The proctor announced loudly.

Yi Chen glanced at the exam paper in his hand.

The topic of this spring test is very simple, it is a historical story.

It is said that the Nine Kingdoms fought for hegemony that year, and in the end, the Shang State won, unified the world, and established the Great Shang Dynasty.

However, the Great Shang Dynasty was because the emperor wanted to build the Yuntian Palace, and he built a lot of construction and labored the people, which led to complaints, and there were people who rebelled all over the country.

In the end, the whole country perished because of it.

That's why today's Great Qin Dynasty existed.

The exam question for this spring test is to write an essay on this historical story and discuss your views.

"Isn't this the Qin Dynasty?"

Seeing the question of the spring test, Yi Chen was speechless for a while.

The establishment and demise of the Great Shang Dynasty, and the Qin Dynasty on the earth, are simply carved out of the same mold.

It's just that the Seven Heroes of the Warring States became the Nine Heroes, and the name of the country is different.

"That's easy!"

Yi Chen smiled slightly, and an eternal article suddenly appeared in his mind - "A Fang Gong Fu"!

Sprinkled with water, like splashing ink!

In less than ten minutes, Yi Chen finished the exam papers, lay on the table and fell asleep directly.

"Alas, children can't be taught!"

When the invigilator saw this scene, he shook his head helplessly.

......

When!when!

The bell rang again, and it was time to rewind.

Everyone's exam papers, whether they have been written or not, are forcibly closed.

There were a few candidates who hadn't finished writing yet, and they couldn't help but cry because of this.

How can you get a high score for an incomplete article?

"This year's spring test is really difficult!"

"Actually let us write about the demise of the Great Merchants, isn't this deliberately making things difficult for people?"

"What a great deal is the rise and fall of a dynasty, and how can it be explained clearly in a few words?"

"Alas, this kind of exam question, I don't know how many people can get the first grade!"

......

As soon as the exam was over, there was a wail all over the exam room.

Almost all test takers are complaining that the questions are too difficult.

After all, it was the rise and fall of a dynasty, and they were just teenagers.

How can a group of people who have not even understood themselves understand the general trend of history, and how can they understand the people of the world?

Return to Shangguan Mansion.

Probably because of the spring test, today's dinner in Shangguan's Mansion was extraordinarily rich.

Chicken, duck and fish, bird's nest and sea cucumber are all about to catch up with the specifications of the annual meeting.

"Come, come, Xiaochen, you eat more, you have to take the martial arts test tomorrow!" Aunt Su filled Yi Chen's bowl with chopsticks one after another.

"Thank you, Aunt Su!" Yi Chen's heart was filled with a warm current.

In this Shangguan Mansion, the only person who is really good to him is probably Aunt Su.

"What are the questions for this year's spring test?"

Shangguan Jing asked casually.

"It is the demise of the Great Shang Dynasty that allows us to play freely and write our own feelings. ”

When it comes to the exam questions of the spring test, Shangguan Wan'er also has a bitter face, obviously encountering a problem.

"Oh, the rise and fall of the world, it's a good question! Scholars should have the world in mind, know the past and know the present!" Shangguan Jing nodded.

"By the way, Wan'er, what did you answer?" he asked.

Shangguan Wan'er smiled, "Of course, I keep in mind my father's teachings, and I will point to the topic at the beginning, writing about the hearts of the people is the foundation of the dynasty and the country, and then I will compare Dashang with my Daqin, showing that the wisdom and martial arts of today's saints, the four seas of my Daqin Dynasty are peaceful, and the people live in peace!"

"Hmm!" Shangguan Jing nodded, "It's all flat and stable, so it's safe to write like this, if something goes wrong, at least you can get a first-class one!"

"Hehe, thank you father for your approval, my daughter will definitely live up to expectations!" Shangguan Wan'er said proudly, and did not forget to glance at Yi Chen defiantly.

"Brother Jing, don't you care how Xiaochen did in the exam?" Aunt Su said complainingly.

Yi Chen smiled, "I did okay in the exam, I should be able to get a super grade!"

Burst!

Shangguan Wan'er squirted out.

looked at Yi Chen with a stunned face - "Chao Wait, are you making me laugh?"

"Wan'er, what do you look like? Bad manners, why don't you clean it up quickly?" Shangguan Jing reprimanded.

Shangguan Wan'er immediately relented, pouted, and wiped the table with a reluctant face.

"But you're too! Yunshan Academy tests twice a year in spring and autumn, but it hasn't published a super-grade article for seven or eight years. ”

Shangguan Jing stood up, and reprimanded with a solemn look in his eyes: "It's a good thing for young people to have ambition, but if their ambition is too high, that is, they will only laugh and be generous!"
