Chapter 40 Township Examination

Outside the city of Hangzhou, to the east.

At this time, it was late at night, and there was no one around, except for the occasional gust of wind that blew a few leaves.

I only heard a "woo" wind sound on the side, which seemed incompatible with the surrounding scenery.

A golden light appeared on the flat ground, revealing a human figure, and with it, a little dust fluttered and fell.

"Hoo ......"

Yi An exhaled a breath of turbidity, only to feel that the bones in his body were about to fall apart, and the first time he used it, not only consumed seventy percent of the true qi in his body, but also a huge challenge to his physical strength.

"It seems that it is not enough to only cultivate the magic, and the exercise of the physical body must also be put on the agenda. Feeling his own "weakness", Yi An sighed lightly.

However, after practicing the Five Elements Dao Technique, he felt that his whole body was full of strength, strictly speaking, this was his first time cultivating the technique, and he was still very satisfied with the results achieved.

If he encounters a strong enemy like Xi Baijun again, he will not be as embarrassed as last time.

The Five Elements Dao Technique is a stepping stone for him on the Technique.

Next, he only needs to step by step, raise the realm up, and then practice advanced techniques, which will inevitably have twice the effect with half the effort.

"It's better to recover your true qi first, and then it's time to go back and deal with the next township test. Yi An smiled bitterly, looking at the little true qi left in his body, he had no choice, after all, the foundation building period only focused on the foundation, and when he arrived at the Guiyuan Realm, he began to pay attention to qi training.

At that time, his situation will change a lot, and he won't just use it once and consume all the true qi of his body.

......

Today is the day of the township examination.

The entire Jiangsu and Zhejiang area of the candidates, as early as a few days ago, came to Hangzhou to prepare for the exam, ten years of hard study, in order to this day, some people shine, some people are lonely, but no one dares to slack off, this is an important moment that can change their fate, even if this time fails, there will be a next time.

The Yanbei Dynasty did not have any restrictions on the age of students, as long as they had the fame of showing their talents, they were eligible to participate in the township examination.

Therefore, there are many students who come to prepare for the exam, and there are many old talents who have failed to do so.

Early in the morning, Yi An set off in full gear and rushed towards the examination room.

Although the imperial court attaches less importance to the township examination than the examination, it is also strictly controlled, and in this era when the popularity of reading is less than one-tenth, lifting people also belongs to the high-end power of the Yanbei Dynasty.

Therefore, as early as a few days ago, the city lord of Hangzhou increased the number of troops in the entire Hangzhou to prevent some lawless elements from disrupting order and sabotaging the township test.

If there is a problem in the township test under his rule, then his position as the city lord can be done, if he does other things, then he may still be able to suppress it, after all, the emperor is far away, he is the head snake of Hangzhou, even if the court is sent by Qin, he has to give him some face.

But the township test is different from the past, but there are countless pairs of eyes, watching the development of the township test all the time, and Wan Songling is not a good person.

Wan Songling is a person who is exquisite, this is the evaluation of the city lord of Hangzhou to him, the other party can not only be familiar with Qingliu, but also mingle with the traitorous party, which is incomprehensible, not only in a high position, but the emperor also attaches great importance to him, therefore, Wan Songling is a person who must not be offended.

Soon, Yi An came to the outside of the examination room, except for people who could go in, they could not carry anything, even a pen or a piece of paper, in order to prevent favoritism.

Moreover, after the start of the exam, there will be people patrolling every area from time to time.

Just as Yi An was about to go in after being checked, he heard someone call his name from behind.

Yi An followed the prestige, only to see a few people rushing over panting, Yi An took a closer look, it turned out that the people from Jingyuan Academy headed by Huang Zongping had arrived.

"Brother Zongping, I'll just say I'm right, you still don't believe it. One of them, after seeing Yi An's appearance, patted Huang Zongping on the shoulder and said with a smile.

Yi An recognized him, the last time he met Wenhui, the other party was with Huang Zongping, they were all from Jingyuan Academy, but they didn't get any rankings last time.

Huang Zongping bowed slightly, and said to Yi An: "Yi An, since the last goodbye, I haven't seen you for a few days, are you ready for this township test?"

Since the end of the last literary meeting, he regarded Yi An as the first enemy in his life, and in the following days, he stayed at home and studied the scriptures and articles until today, in order to try a shame in the township to prove his name as the first talent.

Yi An ignored the other party's question, and instead asked, "Are those false names really that important?"

Huang Zongping was stunned, a little surprised, obviously he didn't expect Yi An to ask him this question, could it be that in the eyes of the other party, everything he cared about was just a little false name?

Thinking of this, Huang Zongping retorted: "Our generation of scholars should have a heart that dares to fight, and only by standing out can we better realize our own value, serve the country, and benefit the people." ”

Yi An said: "Strong words, high-sounding words, like false names, it is also human nature, but even if you like it, you don't dare to admit it, then you are like that." ”

In the face of the person who is picking provocations, Yi Anke will not give the other party any good looks, Huang Zongping should be glad that he did not do anything out of the ordinary, otherwise, he doesn't mind letting the other party suffer a little.

He had never provoked anyone, but trouble had come its own.

Yi An couldn't help but be a little speechless, he just wanted to take the test quietly.

Those false names, he really can't look down on them, it's good to get the first, if he can't get it, then he won't feel any disappointment, just treat it with a normal heart.

When Huang Zongping heard this, he was furious, he originally wanted to beat Yi An in the township test, and he could overpower the other party's "unbeatable" arrogance in the literary test, but when he saw the other party's indifferent appearance, even if he overcame, he felt bored.

Yi An didn't argue with the other party anymore and went directly to the examination room.

"Zong Ping, don't be angry, I think he just doesn't have confidence, so he deliberately provoked you. The classmate on the side comforted.

Huang Zongping nodded, did not speak, obviously did not listen to the persuasion of his classmates, in his opinion, Yi An's appearance did not seem to be fake, as soon as he thought of this, his fighting spirit couldn't help but weaken a lot.

It's a good thing to meet an opponent in chess, it can stimulate his fighting spirit, but he thinks that the opponent does not face him squarely.

Huang Zongping couldn't help but feel a sense of frustration.
