Mei Yi walked to the shore of Lake Melohia to see the wild ducks. The Duchess walked up to Serena and looked at the painting carefully, her face full of shock: "He can even paint?" I have never seen such a beautiful and vivid painting! ”

The Duchess's words have their own reasons, the paintings of this era are influenced by religion, and the expressions of the characters are serious and old-fashioned, and the painting full of youth and moving atmosphere in front of me is not known to be a few grades lower in terms of technique and artistic conception.

Viscount Sakuramai, the queen and the other contestants also had a look of surprise in their eyes. No one dared to despise this young human anymore, and in the face of the overwhelming disparity in strength, their psychological advantages based on their status as elves, goblins, and nobles were almost gone.

After all the contestants had finished drawing, the court painter scored all the paintings. When they saw Mei Yi's painting, as if they had been immobilized, they couldn't help nodding in admiration, and unanimously gave Mei Yi full marks.

The third test is a grammar test, which requires you to write an essay with an unlimited number of words on the theme of Lake Melohia. Mei Yi spent ten seconds writing two lines and ran to the lake to see the wild ducks.

Seeing that Mei Yi treated the selection exam so casually and contemptively, Sakura Mai was just about to have a seizure, picked up Mei Yi's answer sheet and looked at it, which read, "The water pillow can make the mountain pitch, and the wind boat and the moon wander", and his heart moved suddenly.

Hmph, who has Su Shi's poems served?

The fourth is a math test, which has only one question: proving that pi (the ratio of the circumference to the diameter of a circle) is a fixed value.

It took Mei Yi a few minutes to write the proof, using the method of calculus. He was afraid that this method that was too advanced would not be accepted by the elven judges, so he used Euclid's exhaustion method and counter-evidence to prove it.

The Queen said to the Duchess with admiration: "Alicia, neither the King nor I believe that The Beauty of Mathematics could have been written by a human boy of sixteen, and now it seems that we are suspicious. His attainments in painting and literature are simply unfathomable, and Esther's vision is truly admirable. ”

The Duchess said, "Sister, you must not believe it, he wrote "The Beauty of Mathematics" just to help Serena and a few other friends improve their math scores, and told those stories in "Anthology of Flower Spirits" just to help Serena relieve her boredom. This time, he was escorted by Serena to take the exam, and he didn't want to come at all. I guess I didn't paint that picture to win the competition, otherwise why not paint the queen? ”

The queen was amazed and said, "Why don't you come?" The princess's tutor has a salary of 200 gold coins a year, which is comparable to the fiefdom income of small and medium-sized nobles for a year; And directly received the title of viscount, although there is no fief, but there are 200 gold coins per year, which is a position that many people can't get because of their heads. Not to mention that he was in charge of teaching the future queen. ”

The Duchess smiled bitterly and said, "Queen, let's wait for him to pass the fifth test." The fifth is the martial arts aptitude test. I told you that although he became a spiritual ability because of Esther's eyes, he was unable to condense the spirit son, and it was because of this that he was discouraged and came to the true spirit. As for swordsmanship, it's also a mess. ”

The queen said, "Let's see." The princess's teacher, being too weak and too strong will make me feel uneasy. ”

Before the martial arts aptitude test began, Serena said to Mei Yi, "I'm glad that you can listen to my opinion and participate in the princess tutor selection competition. Until now, you have been crushing other players, proving that Madame is not wrong, and you have also explained to the queen. The last one is your weakness, quit, I don't want you to get hurt needlessly. ”

Mei Yi picked a big sword, flipped it lightly, waved it a few times, and said, "Try it, it's too embarrassing to quit like this." You see, didn't you quit the competition if you couldn't do those math problems? The annual income of 400 gold coins is still quite attractive, and the key is a viscount. Will you have to bow when you see me in the future? ”

"Don't even think about it! I don't care about you anymore! Serena huffed and turned back to the Duchess, but her eyes never took her eyes off Meiyi.

The format of the competition is very simple, it is a one-on-one competition with the elven guards of the palace. In fact, this link is not surprising, the spirit of martial arts in the elven kingdom is very strong, and almost everyone in the aristocratic family practices martial arts - in this era, there is no selection examination similar to the imperial examination, and the knights who become big lords and make meritorious contributions on the battlefield are the main channels for commoners and minor nobles to rise.

To everyone's surprise, it was the beautiful and ruthless Miss Sakura Mai who was in charge of testing their martial arts ability. Miss Sakura stood up her long hair, held a wooden sword dipped in lime water at the tip, and said to the contestants, "To save time, I won't be one-on-one anymore, you guys are twenty against one." ”

Enraged by Sakura's arrogant attitude, the contestants rushed forward with wooden swords in hand. In the end, they have been practicing swordsmanship since childhood, and these noble children actually formed an attack echelon without anyone to command and rushed towards Sakura Mai.

In the next two minutes, the Queen, the Duke, and Serena saw something they couldn't believe.

The cherry blossom dance flew and walked through the crowd like a petal, and the whole person seemed to be weightless. In just one minute, the ten people except Mei Yi were swords, and white spots appeared.

Serena chuckled in her heart, and thought to herself: she is worthy of being the person next to the queen, and she is really agile. If it weren't for the wind spirit bonus, his swordsmanship would really not be the opponent of the girl in front of him.

When Sakura raised the wooden sword in her hand and slashed it at the top of Meiyi's head, Serena thought to herself, "You just wait for this." Who told you not to listen to me?

Thinking about it, her face turned red again, and she said in her heart: I am not his person, and he doesn't seem to have reason to listen to me.

Just when Serena's heart was full of drama, a shocking scene happened. Just as Sakura Dance was slashing with the wooden sword in her hand, the sword in Meiyi's hand had already hit her head.

Sakura Dance was startled, immediately stopped the sword in her hand, and threw her sword to admit defeat.

Everyone's eyes fell with shock. Mei Yi looked at her hands and said in dismay, "My luck is so good? He then waved happily to Serena, "See, I won!" Thankfully, I managed to get to the back! ”

The palace staff all laughed, and Serena covered her face and said, "Madam, why did you recommend him to run for the princess's teacher, he has lost the face of the Duke's Palace!" ”

The Duchess said strangely: "Since the face of the Duke's Palace has been lost, why are you still smiling?" ”

The girl's heart was suddenly pierced in front of her, and Serena was suddenly ashamed of herself, and said "Madam" angrily, and hid to the side angrily, not forgetting to glance at Mei Yi fiercely.
