Chapter 103: Civil and Military Imperial Examination

Time passed, three days had passed in the blink of an eye, and in the silent thin space of life and death, Huo Ran heard a muffled sound of thumping, and the entire space seemed to start to vibrate continuously with this muffled sound!

Finally with a soft thud, Dong Wu slowly opened his eyes, covered his chest, frowned, and slowly stood up, looking at the sealing iron gate not far away, with a sad look on his face!

Dong Wu understood that Wang Shu followed the passage of the world and entered the Soul Realm, but he was determined to die, and this time he would definitely die for a lifetime!

After being silent for a long time, Dong Wu couldn't help but show a hint of determination: "Wang Shu, you are my Dong Wu's brother, eldest brother believes that you will not die so easily, hold on, wait for eldest brother, eldest brother will definitely try his best to rescue you!"

"Boss, are you okay?" Huo Ran let out an exclamation, and then a group of people hula suddenly surrounded him, but the two hundred Praetorian Guards who were connected to Dong Wu's life also woke up at the same time, and asked Dong Wu with an anxious face!

"Brothers, don't worry, it's just a small injury, and it will heal in a few days!" Looking at everyone's worried looks, Dong Wu's heart flowed with a warm current, and he hurriedly comforted!

In fact, the Soul Snatcher dagger that Wang Shu used to assassinate Dong Wu was a secret treasure of the Soul Realm, refined from a special material, which was considered a one-time magic weapon, but it could exert the power of a three-grade magic weapon.

Once this Soul Snatcher stabs someone, it will slowly burrow into the heart of the other person and break their heart, but this is not the most terrifying, the most terrifying thing is that this dagger will continue to devour the three souls and seven spirits of others, and finally make their souls fly away!

Fortunately, Dong Wu's three souls and seven spirits have been integrated into the ten natal magic weapons, but the sea of knowledge is empty, and the power of the soul snatching dagger can't find Dong Wu's soul, so naturally it can't be devoured!

Even so, Dong Wu's heart was still shattered by the soul snatching dagger, and he was hit hard, if it weren't for the fact that Dong Wu's physique had just undergone a change some time ago, the speed of the guide was much faster.

In addition, there are two hundred guards connected to Dong Wu's life, which provides Dong Wu with sufficient vitality to make him persist until his heart is repaired and perfected, and Dong Wu is afraid that his soul has returned to the West at this time!

"Subordinate Lu Wei (Lu Fei, Lu Meng) to meet the lord!" At this moment, the Lu brothers, who had already woken up and had been silently guarding on the side, glanced at each other, nodded, stepped forward with a firm face, knelt on the ground, and bowed to Dong Wu!

After all these years of energy, Lu Wei can be considered to have figured out that in this chaotic era, even if you don't provoke others, others will provoke you.

Unless it is a strong person at the level of the sky, otherwise, like he used to be, a single-handedly fool will die sooner or later, and people can't help themselves in the rivers and lakes, that's the reason!

As the saying goes, it is good to enjoy the shade with your back against a big tree, and you can find a backer, instead of worrying about it all day long and living freely, it is better to find a backer, which can not only save your life, but also have a better cultivation environment!

According to the observation during this period of time, Dong Wu attaches great importance to love and righteousness, has strong strength, has a strong background, and the most important thing is that he is very good to his brothers, with such a master, at least he does not have to worry about suffering unfair treatment, and he is a reliable and good backer!

As for Lu Fei and Lu Meng, the brothers have made a fortune with Dong Wu at the headquarters of the Yama Luo Palace in the past few days, and they have long been committed to the five bodies that Dong Wu admires, if it weren't for Lu Wei's thoughts, they would have followed Dong Wu a long time ago, and now that Lu Wei has figured it out himself, he is naturally very happy!

Seeing the three of them taking refuge, Dong Wu's pale face couldn't help but show a smile: "Great, there are three brothers joining, and I have three more generals in Heavenly Court!"

After that, he remembered the scene when he bowed to Wang Shu and a few people, a fierce color flashed in front of him, his fists were clenched, and he said with hatred: "Soul Realm, if the ninth brother has any mistakes, Lao Tzu will definitely let your entire Soul Realm bury him!"

Then he stretched out his hand and waved it, and released the Seven Hall Masters and Nine Hall Masters who were imprisoned in the Ghost Realm, releasing infinite momentum, condescendingly, and asked in a cold voice: "Say, what is the conspiracy of the people in the Soul Realm, and who is the so-called Holy Lord?"

"Do you know who we are? Hurry up and let us go, otherwise, our Yama Palace will not let you go!" Seeing Dong Wu, a trace of fear flashed in the eyes of the two, and they beat their spirits and opened their mouths to threaten!

"Hmph, toast and don't eat and drink, the deity doesn't have time to waste time with the two of you, Lu Fei, Lu Meng, let the two of them see the power of your poisonous pox!" Dong Wu snorted coldly and said to Lu Fei and the others!

If it was a weekday, maybe Dong Wu would have the patience to interrogate slowly, but now that Wang Shu has an accident, Dong Wu's mood is not good, and these two hall masters are naturally moldy!

The Lu brothers usually use small animals or something to use toxins, and occasionally against the enemy, they are all silver-like pewter spear heads, and they are still far away, and they are poisoned by the poisonous miasma spreading around them.

To the two hall masters like this, the cultivation can be compared to human immortals, will not resist and is durable live target, but the first time I saw it, I was naturally full of excitement and tried all the toxins on these two people.

What itching, pain, numbness, all kinds of pain kept coming, and in the end, it was full of pus, and the whole body became green, and I couldn't even see a whole piece of skin, so I had to lie on the ground and keep wailing and begging for mercy, but I couldn't even say a complete word!

As soon as he stretched out his hand to block the Lu brothers who were going to continue to test the toxin, Dong Wu's eyes were like lightning, staring at the two of them tightly, and he didn't speak, but the murderous aura contained between his eyes was obvious, obviously if the two didn't say anything, the end would definitely be miserable!

"Don't come again, I say, I say!" Seeing the Lu brothers on the side, the Nine Hall Lord was extremely frightened, and his mind finally collapsed, and he said: "The Holy Lord is the Heavenly Dao of the Instrument Soul Realm, I heard that the entire Instrument Soul Realm has been unified by it, imitating the Heavenly Court of our Heavenly Desolate Realm back then, and building a Instrument Soul Immortal Court!"

And as far as I know, there are eight great generals in the Instrument Soul Realm, all of whom are comparable to the powerhouses of the Heavenly Immortal level, in addition to more than a hundred Earth Immortal-level holy envoys, and more than 1,000 human immortal-level deputy envoys, as for whether there is any hidden power, I don't know!

Taking advantage of the opportunity for the Nine Hall Lord to breathe, the Seven Hall Lord hurriedly said: "One day three years ago, I was cultivating in the cultivation room, and suddenly a person dressed in black came out of the ground, it was the messenger of the Holy Lord of the Instrument Soul Hall!"

While I was unprepared, the messenger suddenly intervened, restrained me, and set a ban in my body, forcing me to do things for the Soul Realm.

The villain was forced to be helpless, so he had to agree, and then the messenger asked me to find a way to control the Yama Palace, find a way to break a seal, for which he also took out a large number of treasures for me to win people's hearts,

In the end, he directly handed over the fragments of the Blood Sea Realm and the Blood Sea Rune Seal to me, saying that I would use it to train masters and better complete the task, and it didn't take long for the Demon Emperor Mountain Range Immortal Mansion to be born, and the hall master went to rob the Immortal Mansion with a large army.

And I took this opportunity to win over the Nine Hall Lords to jointly serve as the Holy Host, and plundered a large number of living souls and put them into the sea of blood to cultivate Shura!

As a result, the few Shura cultivated were directly taken away by the Holy Envoy, and it wasn't until later that I learned that the Blood Sea Realm had long been refined by the Instrument Soul Realm, and those cultivated Shura had long been secretly controlled by the Holy Lord.

As for the blood sea talisman seal, it is just a trace of the Holy Lord's divine thoughts, because it contains the divine thoughts of the Holy Lord, and with this talisman seal, you can control those Shura!"

Hearing this, Dong Wu was extremely remorseful, as early as when King Qin Guang talked about the Blood Sea Realm, he should have thought that the Blood Sea Realm fragment was a conspiracy of the Instrument Soul Realm, but because of carelessness, it was a big mistake!

I took the blood sea talisman seal and went to save the king book, isn't this self-defeating, it is estimated that the king book was controlled by the holy lord god contained in the talisman at that time, I really want to talk about it, but I hurt the king book!

"Let's go back!" Looking at the dark Life and Death Thin Instrument Spirit Space, Dong Wu sighed, led everyone, cut through the space, and left: Life and Death Thin, wait for me, soon, the deity will come back, and then it will be the time to conquer the Instrument Soul Realm!

......

And while Dong Wu was tossing in the Yama Palace, within the Heavenly City, a crisis was slowly approaching!

A month ago, the Heavenly City Imperial Examination, which was widely circulated in the entire Qingsoul Continent's scattered cultivation circle, finally began, among which a total of 100,000 people registered for the literary examination, and even more than one million people registered for the martial arts examination.

After a month of fierce competition, there are still 1,000 civil and military candidates left, basically every one of them is an elite, and on this day, it has finally reached the most critical palace examination link, as long as it passes this level, even if the results are worse, you can be a low-level official in the heavenly court!

For this reason, Xiao Bai also spent a maze diagram for the martial arts examination, and all the martial arts contestants were sent into the diagram, and the rankings were assessed according to the speed at which they broke the diagram!

This is to test the strength, observation and strategy of martial arts candidates, after all, if you want to break the map, at least the strength must meet the standard, otherwise, even if the exit is at your feet, you can't get out.

As for observation, it is because the route of the maze diagram is very complicated, and the exit is still moving, plus you have to guard against other candidates and pre-arranged sneak attackers, if you don't have keen observation, it will be a tragedy!

And strategy, the maze is huge, and it is naturally difficult to find the exit little by little by yourself, which requires candidates to find their own way!

As for the literary examination, the large square in the center of the heavenly city has been specially opened for the purpose of the exam, and the square is not closed, anyone can watch around, and even make loud noises is no problem, as long as you don't run into the venue and take away the candidates' pen, ink, paper and inkstone, you will have no problem even if you set off firecrackers on the side!

This is to test the mentality of the candidates, as a scholar, whether it is a staff officer or a military advisor in the future, it is not enough to rely on knowledge, but also need a kind of temperament that the sky is not shocked, to put it bluntly, it is calm, if it is because of a small noise, you will not be able to calm down to the exam, and talk about military affairs!

Of course, this was all explained by Dong Wu in advance, and the people of Confucianism and Kong Fang only needed to choose according to Dong Wu's requirements, but it didn't take much energy!
