Chapter 461: Entrance Exams

"The grand occasion is unprecedented, this is the beginning of the spring of my northern country, seeing this scene, the old man really believes that he can see the world of Datong in his lifetime!"

After the opening ceremony, Emperor Hongwei and a group of powerful people left the venue first, but although the elderly master sat on the viewing platform for a whole morning, he still insisted on not leaving, and had to watch the whole exam.

Listening to the tearful emotion in the doctor's eyes, Xu Rui wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, he didn't want to climb high and look far away and point out the country, but countless trivial matters pointed to him to pay attention to, and he really didn't have the leisure and elegance of the master.

"It's about to start the exam, let's take a look at it later."

On the high main invigilator platform, Xu Rui confessed to the doctor and went to the examination room for a walk.

Although all the suitability of the examination room has been clearly arranged, Zhang Zongnian, as the chief examiner, has almost zero chance of going wrong, but perhaps this exam is too important, Xu Rui is always a little relieved.

"Gangfeng walks slowly, the old man will accompany you to take a look, if you miss this grand occasion, the old man will definitely regret it for life!"

Without waiting for Xu Rui to leave, Mr. Dongli said with a smile and walked two steps quickly to keep up with him.

Mr. Dongli walked vigorously and briskly in these few steps, and he couldn't tell that he was an old man who was nearly 100 years old, but how dare Xu Rui hold it up, if there was an accident, even he wouldn't be able to eat and walk around.

Seeing this old child eager to jump, Xu Rui's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and he hurriedly slowed down his pace and helped the doctor to walk slowly to the examination room.

In this year's exam, Xu Rui moved out of the banner of teaching students according to their aptitude, and sent a perfect enrollment brochure to each candidate from the beginning, which recorded detailed faculties, majors and teachers, etc., so that candidates can choose according to their interests.

Depending on the major, the subjects and content that candidates need to take are different.

Perhaps inspired by Xu Rui's innovation, even the master abandoned the eight-strand text that had been used for thousands of years when he came up with the Confucianism exam questions, and only asked a seemingly nonsensical question: "How to improve learning efficiency?" ”

The moment he saw the Confucianism exam questions, even Xu Rui was dumbfounded, and immediately thought that the great master's thoughts had moved closer to Wang Yangming's mental pragmatism, this question seemed simple, but it was extremely difficult to decipher the deep meaning.

However, when Xu Rui euphemistically asked the master whether this question was out of the program, the doctor shook his head with a smile and told him that this question was not to test the mind, but only to test the literal meaning.

Xu Rui and the other Confucian powers were incredulous, but the master said that the bachelor's degree stage is to do basic selection, and it is more important to cultivate simple and efficient learning methods than to explore the depth of knowledge.

What's more, there are a large number of candidates who have signed up, and only a few are admitted after all, even those students who are not admitted can find the direction and method of future study through this question.

After listening to the words of the master, Xu Rui realized that he was worthy of being a generation of literary saints, not only had fully understood the essence of Xu Rui's design of the university, but also in line with the purpose of educating the world, regardless of the gains and losses of one city and one place.

In addition to admiration, Xu Rui also shook his head and smiled bitterly at the fate of the candidates, even he failed to solve the questions correctly, you can imagine how dumbfounded the candidates would be when they got the exam questions.

In addition to Confucianism, all the schools of thought have their own topics, and it was Xu Rui's turn to divide the subjects into five subjects: mathematics, chemistry, physics, biology and specialized military science.

Due to the lack of basic education, the questions of Xu Rui in the first four subjects are not professional calculation or application questions, most of them are the analysis of natural phenomena.

He just wanted to find out those students who were really interested in these four natural sciences and had thinking about them, and it would be much easier to teach them from scratch after entering the school.

Compared with the other hundreds of schools, there are many candidates who apply for Confucianism and Yin and Yang, in fact, this is also very understandable, for more than a thousand years, Confucianism is orthodox after all, and there are scholars such as the Great Master, which is naturally the most authoritative.

The Yin and Yang education of the Guigu is draped in a strong mystery, and the so-called Zhuyu of each generation of Guigu will produce the ability of the heavens and latitudes of the earth is even more intriguing to the innumerable students.

In addition, due to the fact that there are too few teachers, all those who enter the school of Yin and Yang have a great possibility of becoming Xu Rui's students, and the temptation to follow the appearance of a saint and be the champion of the dynasty is really irresistible.

After all, if you want to study with a Confucian like Zhang Zongnian, you have to wait until a master's degree, and if you want to study with a master, you have to wait until a doctorate, but you also have to be lucky enough and good enough.

In contrast, Xu Rui's popularity and talent at this time are second only to the master, and even above the first person in Taoism, Changqingzi Zhen Zhuli, how can such an obvious bug be missed?

However, there is one thing that surprises Xu Rui, it is said that in the study of Guigu, mathematics, chemistry, physics, and biology are more important to ordinary candidates, because even if they can't enter the court as an official after completing their studies, they are definitely in demand when they go to Galaxy Group or other businesses.

Unexpectedly, the number of students who applied for the Military Academy was much more than the number of students who applied for these four natural sciences.

To put it bluntly, the country is divided, wars are frequent, and most of the students in the north are heroic people, who doesn't want to make contributions on the battlefield like Xu Rui, and be crowned the prime minister in the year of the crown?

Therefore, compared with the other four sciences, the military academy is the hardest, most dangerous, and most unstable, but the number of applicants is more, and the high risk is inevitably accompanied by high rewards.

Xu Rui was relieved, but it didn't take long for his eyes to widen again, because he found an unexpectedly familiar figure in the examination room.

In the examination room of military theory subjects, in the brand-new classroom, there is an old acquaintance sitting in the first row, who else could it be if it wasn't Lin Shaodong?!

Seeing Lin Shaodong appear here, Xu Rui was suddenly full of question marks, and regardless of following the footsteps of the eldest master, he quietly walked to his side and glared at him fiercely.

"Hey, what are you messing around here?"

Xu Rui looked left and right, pretended to be an invigilator, and asked in a low voice.

Lin Shaodong laughed evilly and said in a low voice: "There is no rule that military personnel cannot take the exam?" ”

Xu Rui frowned: "Isn't there a place for those who have performed well in the army to interview for further study in the Military Academy?" What are you doing here? Besides, if you're taking exams with other people, isn't that cheating? ”

Lin Shaodong rolled his eyes: "There are not many places for the outstanding people in the army to study in the army, if I go to fight, won't I also rob other comrades-in-arms of the opportunity, besides, that place will have to wait until a few years later, not to mention that you are so lazy, the teacher will probably not be you at that time, even if you win a place, what's the point?" ”

Xu Rui was stunned: "You came here to listen to my lectures?" ”

Lin Shaodong laughed evilly: "No way, everyone knows each other so well, it's a little ashamed to worship you as a teacher in person, so I can only come to take the exam, Dashuai, I take the exam with real skills, you can't cheat for personal gain and kick me out." ”

As he spoke, he looked around and saw that no one was paying attention, so he lowered his voice and said, "The brothers of the Apocalypse Guard all know that I am here for the exam, if I, the chief of staff, can't pass the exam, I will lose face!" ”

"What, everyone knows, but it's hidden from me?"

Xu Rui's eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a little anger in his heart.

But when he saw Lin Shaodong's smiling expression, Xu Rui suddenly remembered that in the past few months, Lin Shaodong often wanted to speak and stopped, as if he had something to say to himself, but in the end he didn't say anything.

Now that he thinks about it, that's probably what he wants to say, no wonder he didn't hesitate to refuse the position of military instructor, Xu Rui thought he wanted to devote himself wholeheartedly to the cause of the newspaper, but now he knows that he has another plan.

Lin Shaodong saw a flash of abruptness on Xu Rui's face, and suddenly said: "Dashuai, my ability was originally taught by you, but you and I have the reality of master and apprentice, but we don't have the name of master and apprentice, this time I want to be your founding disciple in a dignified manner!" ”

Xu Rui was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then looked at Lin Shaodong's firm expression, and suddenly felt a strong and indescribable emotion in his heart.

It's rare to have a pure heart, with you here, this world really treats me well......

Xu Rui's eyes suddenly blurred, and he turned around and walked towards the next examination room, but a relieved smile hung on the corner of his mouth.
