......
Thirty and three hundred were chosen.
Next is the temple exam.
King Huaiyu of Chu is a particular person, he is not in a hurry to open the palace examination, but to give those who are qualified a little time to prepare, and also to give himself a little preparation.
He is talented, so before the palace examination began, he released this exam question - sand table.
"Do you want a sand table exercise?"
It seems that in this selection, King Huaiyu of Chu should want to select some people who are good at strategy, and more detailed - people who can lead troops to fight.
Jiang Heng, who saw this thought, asked Zhang Junbao about his research in this area, and Zhang Junbao shook his head helplessly: "Fighting in our country has always been a matter for martial artists!"
The meaning is simple - if you are tough, whoever is strong will have more probability of winning.
This is the idea of the most crude martial artist, and those who really understand Russian strategy know very well what the role of a commander can play in a battle.
General Wu Mu is such a person who is proficient in warfare and strategy, and his youngest son, Huaiyu, the king of Chu, probably inherited this, otherwise he would not have been selected like this.
And what's even more amazing is that-
Just one day before the palace test began, Huaiyu, the king of Chu, personally sent a handwritten letter, which read-
The sharpest sword can't be hidden in a crate for long.
......
In just one sentence, Jiang Heng seemed to understand what he meant.
This may be a kind of shouting in the air, he has never met with this Chu king, and the only intersection between them should be Jiang Heng's essay in the literary examination and his performance in the martial arts examination.
As for whether there was anything else, he didn't know.
......
The temple examination begins.
The martial arts examination and the literary examination were divided into two groups.
But it brought a new problem to Jiang Heng, that is, the exams on both sides were held at the same time, and the only Confucius who could drill was. Jiang Heng, Zhang Junbao, and Zhangwu were placed in the final assessment because they were the top three. This gave them a little limited time to participate in the martial arts exam, which was not intended to embarrass Jiang Heng and the others, but a test, a decision made for a stronger preparation.
The location of the martial arts examination is still in the lecture hall, and the location of the literary examination is in Guozijian, and it seems that Huaiyu, the king of Chu, cannot invigilate the examination at the same time. But when they actually entered the examination room that had been arranged by the martial arts hall, the thirty people of the martial arts examination noticed a crystal-like eye in the air above the examination room.
"Your every move here will be monitored!"
At the same time, the remaining 270 people also participated in this martial arts examination.
Therefore, the previous superior ranking had no effect, and after entering the examination room, everyone found that they had stepped into a small world.
It was a world surrounded by vast mountains and forests, and a battlefield to be exact.
In the middle is a wide plain, with a raging river on the left and mountains on the right.
The three hundred men were divided into ten squads, and the previous thirty men naturally became the leaders of each squad.
In accordance with the advantages β
Jiang Heng, Zhang Wu, Zhang Junbao, the three people who are inevitably connected have become a big team in an instant. That is, the alliance, the alliance of thirty people, against the rest of the small teams, this is the advantage.
But the other party is not a vegetarian, especially those disciples who are from the martial arts hall. Almost immediately, the remaining twenty-seven teams were united.
A battle against the trio is about to start here.
They were already limited by time, but now they are facing the battle of 30 against 270.
After realizing such a disadvantage, some people began to defect.
The mountains and forests kept fleeing, leaving the figure of Jiang Heng's three-person team.
This is to be expected, and no one will give up their only chance to turn around for the sake of someone who has already made it to the top 30.
Jiang Heng finally knew that the so-called top thirty originally meant this.
Why did the first 30 people be elected, and then the remaining 270 people should be allowed to participate again?
Jiang Heng understood, he looked at the only remaining seventeen people in the team of thirty people, including himself, and then said, "Because the opportunity is right now!"
What do you mean?
That Zhang Junbao was the only one who could keep up with Jiang Heng's train of thought, and he quickly understood what Jiang Heng meant:
"That is, you are now going there, and there are more than two hundred people there, and thirty are destined to be picked out of them. What is the probability? And we have seventeen people here, and our probability is only to win, and we are the top seventeen in this martial arts examination, and we are still honored even if we are defeated! Because no one can have the courage to dare seventeen people to challenge the alliance of 283 people on the other side as we are. β
I have to say that Zhang Junbao's words played a very good role in encouraging people's hearts.
"Yes, if we win, we will be truly glorious ancestors!"
"That's right! Seventeen people won two hundred and eighty-three people, it's so exciting to think about it!"
For these, Jiang Heng stood there, calmly and calmly told them:
"If you want to glorify your ancestors, you must rely not only on the present, but on the battlefield in the future!"
Jiang Heng raised his arms and drank: "Then let's step here first, let them see what it means to win more with less." β
The Terrans have never lacked the typical combat power of winning more with less.
What's more, this is just a three-hundred-man battle in the sandbox?
And here it isβ
Everyone's cultivation was controlled.
Everyone sensed that the powerful prohibition in the lecture hall made it impossible for them to open their rings.
After lacking the assistance of weapons and equipment, this seemingly disadvantaged situation gave Jiang Heng more advantages.
And their perception has also been greatly affected.
Jiang Heng carefully observed the mountains and forests they were currently hidingβ
The reason why perception will be thwarted should be those trees.
Jiang Heng carefully inspected the surrounding trees, and finally found a powerful isolation powder under the bark of a tree.
This kind of medicinal powder, even if it is a master of the True Martial Realm, will affect his perception after being disturbed by these disturbances.
If that's the case β
Jiang Heng seemed to see the hope of victory, and he left to arrange for his sixteen people to pick the bark of the surrounding trees. In order to prevent this one action is not particularly obvious. The method they chose was to reduce it, taking a small piece of bark from the top of a tree and taking it away, as if making a mark, so as not to attract attention.
After collecting enough bark, the sixteen people followed Jiang Heng's steps into a hidden cave. There are two exits in the cave, which are handled by Zhang Junbao and Zhangwu respectively.
The remaining fourteen people in the cave were beside Jiang Heng, and after gathering all the collected bark, Jiang Heng sacrificed his alchemy furnace.
When the fire of the alchemy furnace had just been ignited, the blood of the fourteen people around it also burned:
"Brother Jiang turned out to be an alchemist!!
