[Chapter 367: The Examination Begins!] (6 more)
Everything that happened in the Forbidden Palace that night was unknown.
After getting the exam questions, Li Chun has been preparing at home, never going out again, and concentrating on practice.
With the prince's care, the exam questions leaked in advance and his own strength, it would be too embarrassing if he couldn't get into the Jinshi again.
Although the old man was complained about by Li Chun, he finally fulfilled his promise, and he also felt that he had put down a big stone, and he could finally develop his Weishui Temple wholeheartedly and gather his divine power.
- Of course, Li Chun must book a part of this.
"You save it for me first, and when I use it, don't you have it?"
Li Chun has been getting a lot of swordsmanship from the Langhuan Jade Library one after another for a period of time, but there are too few practical ones.
What he can use now, in addition to the weak willow Fufeng sword technique that he received at the beginning, only the Sword Demon Codex and Taiyin Sword Qi are the most practical, and the other sword techniques are too low in grade and the number of paths is not compatible, so they can only be used as a reference at most.
If you want to get a desirable swordsmanship, you still need a huge amount of divine power to exchange huàn after all.
- Li Chun has consulted the Banzai boy in detail about this, and with his current level, if he wants a suitable swordsmanship, he needs at least 100,000 divine power.
The original weak willow wind sword technique, but it was something that could be obtained with only a thousand divine powers.
But after all, it was a beginner's sword move, and now it was suitable for cultivators, and it had increased by as much as a hundred times all of a sudden.
Although I don't know the unit of this divine power, I roughly estimated it from the divine power of the old man. If he is a qiēshun lì and his belief is stable, the income in a year is only two or three times this number.
Therefore, if Li Chun wants a suitable swordsmanship, he will have to wait for at least a year, and a better swordsmanship will be more expensive, so he can only count on the waste old man to slowly save it for him.
"Whoever called your priesthood too small, when you can hurry up and get promoted!"
Li Chun sighed.
Time flies, and in a flash, ten days have passed.
this day. It's finally time to take the test.
Hundreds of lifts. All of them were gathered at the entrance of the southwest corner of the palace, and when the time came, they rushed in and out to the stars - this is the examination room for this year.
"Li Qing. Don't let me down, do you?"
The prince came to see him off. It was beyond Li Chun's expectations.
After all, the crown prince has been busy lately. Even his expression was much haggard, but he didn't expect that he would still have time to send off his friend.
"Don't worry, you can definitely win it this time!"
Li Chun shook his fist.
At this time, the horn cannon sounded. The corner door opened, and a group of scholars followed the instructions of the guards, and entered the palace, even if these people were monks, they didn't dare to look around, they didn't squint, only Li Chun squinted at the small building of the Royal Archives in the distance from time to time, and he didn't know if the old man was looking at himself in the dark.
Above the constellation array, there is a Taoist with a cloak of hair, wielding a wooden sword, burning yellow rune paper, scattering ashes into the sky, and chanting words in his mouth.
"This one is one of the Three Great Dao Venerables, the Lord of the Three Water Dao Palace, Gu Xingqing, the real person, right?"
There were whispers before and after, but Li Chun took a few more looks.
The Three Great Dao Zun is the most outstanding representative of the Dao Palace, only one step away from the gods, and can communicate with heaven and earth and invite the gods.
In today's science field, it is necessary to ask the blessing of the divine power of the heavenly court to make the star array ever-changing, leading to changes that even those monks can't see.
This kind of work has to be done by Taoist priests, and a single god cannot play a role in communicating with the entire heavenly court, they can only connect with the gods they worship, and it is inevitable that there will be deviations.
Unless it is the emperor who communicates with the Emperor of Heaven in person - but the Emperor of Heaven is supreme, this kind of triennial exam will generally not bother him.
"The stars are in the lower realm, suppress the demons!"
Gu Xingqing really shouted, and a thunder shot out in his hand, only to see that in the blue sky and white day, countless meteors fell, falling straight into the star array.
"The laws of heaven are turned into chains!"
Around the large array, a thick chain of white life appeared, completely locking the entire large array, leaving no gap.
The strictness of the general examination is far from being comparable to the county examination and the prefectural examination.
This is the most important exam, and the winner, too, will receive the most prestigious reputation.
Li Chun noticed that Wang Bangyan, the slaughter king who claimed to be the top student in the exam, did not appear in the examination team - it seemed that after he kicked out his teeth, he really had no face to continue to participate in the examination.
He sighed, as if it was inevitable that every guy who clashed with him before the exam would not have this fate.
Li Chun touched his nose, very proud of his discovery.
"The hour has come, candidates are in!"
At this time, Gu Xingqing Zhenren had already retired, he had completed his task, and it was the chief examiner of this exam who was speaking at this time, his voice was loud, and he must be a master who was not weak.
In fact, most of the people who can get this status in the imperial court have passed the imperial examination, and at least they have the fame of lifting people, and the jinshi account for more than half.
To be able to preside over the examination as an official of the Ministry of Rites, it must be a Jinshi background.
"Xiangye!
On the side of the star array, there is a stargazing tower, which is the place where the emperor and the ministers of the court and the central government watch the candidates, Linghu Taoyou sat leisurely on the emperor's side, looking at the frosty Wu Guifei and the emperor who couldn't lift his spirits, and the prince who sat straight, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a sneer.
It was at this time that someone came to whisper to him.
"Good!"
Ling Hutao's expression didn't change, he just nodded.
"Let's do it!"
It was as if he was confessing a trivial matter.
The prince noticed his movements, turned his head, and smiled at the prime minister, "Father, official affairs are so busy, when watching the candidates enter, do you still have to deal with government affairs?"
Ling Hu Tao also smiled, "It's not a state affair, it's just some family affairs." ”
"Oh......"
The prince made a sudden realization, but his eyes flickered, he shook his head and changed the subject.
"This time, the candidates are all elites, but I don't know which one my father is optimistic about can win the championship?"
Ling Hu Tao shook his head, "The examination is only to select talents, and the candidate for the champion has always been decided by the Son of Heaven, how dare the minister put his beak?"
He paused, and suddenly there was an imperceptible sneer on his face.
"However, I heard that the prince's confidant Li Chun will also participate in this imperial examination, I think ...... He has the best chance of winning the title!"
His voice was still very sincere, and even the crown prince could not see that he was hypocritical in the slightest. (To be continued......)
