The widow's village, recognized as the first wealthy village around Xunxian City, is different from ordinary villages, there are no cattle and sheep and dilapidated houses everywhere in the widow's village, only luxurious mansions and groups of servants and attendants.

At this time, in front of Liufu, the largest mansion in the widow's village, nearly 100 candidates gathered, and they lined up in a long line, waiting for the examiner in charge of registration at the door to review and enter the mansion.

Receiving the clearance card handed by Liu Xiu, the middle-aged Confucian examiner sitting in front of the desk lowered his head to check the information, raised his pen and kept sketching on the information, and asked lightly: "Why do you want to sign up for the Sword Falling Sect?"

"Why did you sign up for the Sword Sect?" Liu Xiu was stopped by this question, and then remembered the scene that happened when he was pretending to be a beggar a few days ago, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Because...... Not long ago, a teacher from your sect bent down and shamelessly picked up a copper plate in front of me!"

"So you signed up for the assessment to get revenge?" the examiner raised his head and stared at Liu Xiu in surprise.

"Wrong!" Liu Xiu vetoed: "The real reason why I signed up is ...... That shameless teacher shamelessly picked up one copper plate in front of me and then picked up three more! In my life, I was lucky enough to pick up all four copper plates I came across! So I had to sign up for the examination! In order to find him out and give him two more copper plates, it would be enough to buy a bowl of noodles!"

The middle-aged examiner stood up with a "pout" and said eagerly. "I'm the teacher who picked up the money! Hurry up and give me two copper plates!".

"However, I never bring copper plates when I go out!" He took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms and put them on the table, and said with a smile: "If you don't dislike it, take these papers and wipe your buttocks!"

The middle-aged examiner quietly stuffed the silver ticket into his arms, stroked his beard approvingly, and said: "What a kind and excellent young man! I am optimistic about you! Hurry up and get in!" attached to Liu Xiu's ear raised his eyebrows, he smiled and said: "I have helped you change the bad evaluation of the first two levels to excellent, as long as the third level does not make a fork, it should be no problem to win the top three." ”

"Then thank you teacher, remember to come to my Yuanhou Mansion in Dazhou Town for tea another day!" Liu Xiuyin said with a smile.

"Forget it another day, it's better today, can you pack up the leftover tea and take it away, and take a few cow......s by the way," the middle-aged examiner saw that Liu Xiu had turned away, and hurriedly stretched his neck and shouted: "Hey, little brother, don't forget our agreement!!"

Entering Liufu, led by a domestic servant, he came to the empty martial arts arena, where nearly a hundred long tables were placed, and there were pen, ink, paper and inkstones on the tables, which seemed to be about to take the answer sheet exam.

After finding a position in the front row and sitting down, the candidates entered and sat down in turn, the old woman in a fiery red robe Sai Tianxian walked slowly to the examination room under the confused gaze of everyone, and said to the surprised candidates below: "The old body is fortunate to be invited by the sect to be the invigilator of this third level, you don't have to be too restrained, the biggest advantage of my person is that I never hold grudges." ”

Glancing at Liu Xiu's position, she smiled and said: "Whose sin is against me, I don't care! Okay! Let's talk about the rules, there are three contents of the exam, each of which has a stick of incense to answer the question, and after a stick of incense, whether it is written or not, the paper must be handed in!"

Motioning to the servants to hand out the examination papers, the old woman stood in front of the table where the incense burner was placed, lit a stick of incense and said loudly: "The exam begins! The content of the first exam is that the ancient painting "Luo Shen Futu" is copied from a stick of incense. ”

Recalling the appearance of "Luo Shen Futu" in his mind, Liu Xiu caught a glimpse of the old woman grinning at herself with yellow teeth, and then holding the incense burner and puffing out her cheeks and blowing hard, which made the already scarce time pass faster.

"This old woman is too shameless! Who can copy it in such a short period of time!" Liu Xiu looked at the old woman hatefully, and as soon as the thought in her heart arose, she saw that the candidates had already handed in their papers one after another! So fast? How could this be possible!

After a while, the old woman came to Liu Xiu with a small incense burner, pasted her wrinkled old face in front of him, pointed to the burned incense, "hehe" and smiled: "Little brother, the time has come! The others have already handed in the papers, why are you so slow?"

Quickly took away Liu Xiu's picture scroll and put it away, she asked the servants to start sending the second test paper, this time it was Liu Xiu's best poem, seeing the old woman and the two domestic servants struggling to blow incense, he hurriedly picked up the pen and wrote, but before he wrote a few strokes, the old woman appeared in front of him again with grinning teeth.

Pointing to the candidates who had already handed in the papers next to her, the old woman said: "Little brother, why is it so slow, you see that the incense has been burned, everyone has handed in the papers, you are the only ones left, hurry up and hand in the papers!" After speaking, she glanced at Liu Xiu, who was stunned, with satisfaction, and unceremoniously took away the exam papers.

"How is it possible! How can it be so fast!" Liu Xiu opened his mouth and sat in front of the answer table.

"The third exam begins! Please complete the answer to the exam paper within a stick of incense!" As soon as the old woman's voice fell, Liu Xiu picked up the pen and finished writing at the fastest speed in her life, then got up and threw away the pen, blushing and shouting: "Submit the paper!"

"It's too slow!" The old woman who was barbecuing with the candidates next to the martial arts arena opened her greasy mouth and said dissatisfiedly: "Why are you so slow! The examiners on our side have reviewed all the test papers!" he said, raised his hand holding the chicken leg, and pointed to the two middle-aged men in Confucian shirts looking up at the sky in a daze in front of the desk next to him.

"I ......" Liu Xiu was suddenly struck by lightning, and sat down on the chair with his mouth wide open.

The maid sent Liu Xiu's exam papers to the examiner for review, and after a while, the old woman held a few examiners to review the selected test papers, walked to the front desk and said to the candidates: "After the examiner's approval, select a few problematic papers, for the sake of fairness, so please review them together!"

"The content of the first exam is to copy the "Luo Shen Fu Tu", and the picture scroll depicts the story of the meeting between Luo Shen and Cao Zhi! But ......" took a picture scroll and walked to Liu Xiu, who was in a stupor, and slapped the table fiercely, she said angrily: "But this candidate, what are you drawing! It's simply insulting the art of painting!"

Holding Liu Xiu's exam paper above her head and unfolding it, she said indignantly: "Let's take a look! What is this examiner's drawing!" Seeing that everyone was talking in surprise, she pressed the scroll on the table and pointed at it and asked Liu Xiu: "This examinee, can you tell everyone what you are drawing!"

""Luo Shen Futu, don't you know?" Liu Xiu, who came back to his senses, said flatly.

"Luo Shen Futu? Okay! Then let me ask you! What is the word "Tai" under this black circle!"

"Cao Zhi, isn't "Luo Shen Futu" just about Luo Shen and Cao Zhi? This is Cao Zhi, can't you see such obvious male characteristics?"

"Hmph!" the old woman snorted coldly, "Even if this is Cao Zhi, then what are these tadpoles?" After speaking, she pointed to the ink spots under the scroll.

"Onlookers, the time you gave me is so short, I can only play extraordinarily. Liu Xiu said helplessly.

"Time is short, hmph, I think you don't know how to draw at all! Let's look at what other exams draw!" the old woman grabbed a candidate's scroll handed by the maid and unfolded it, revealing a colorful "Luo Shen Fu Tu".

"This ...... It's really expressive. Liu Xiu stared at the scroll carefully for a long time, then raised his head and said to the old woman: "I admit that my painting is not as good as this "Luo Shen Fu Tu", but you keep saying that I am poor at painting, and if you have the ability, you can also draw one for me to see, if you can really draw it, what if you admit defeat?"

"Okay! The old body will convince you to lose!" The old woman's eyes were cold, she walked to the desk and picked up the pen and ink and quickly painted, after a cup of tea, she brought the painted work to Liu Xiu, and said proudly: "How about it?

Looking at the two birds and a bunch of rice grains on the picture scroll, Liu Xiu was surprised and said: "Let you draw "Luo Shen Futu", what are you painting two little birds for? What about Luo Shen and Cao Zhi?"

"What a bird!" the old woman said angrily: "This is Luo Shen and Cao Zhi!"

"Okay. Liu Xiu bowed slightly, "Even if you're right, then what are these piles of rice grains?"

"Stalker! Roselle is so ugly, it's normal for some stalkers to want to beat her up. The old woman said lightly.

"Awesome!" Liu Xiu stared at the old woman in shock and said: "The masterpiece "Luo Shen Futu" will become another masterpiece in your hands, admire! Admire! I am willing to admit defeat for this first test paper! Hurry up and take out my second test paper for everyone to appreciate." ”

"Unexpectedly, you are really self-aware, but because the papers you answered below are very neat, the examiners unanimously agree that you are the first to take the exam of this year's Falling Sword Sect Divine Monkey Academy!" The old woman smiled and took the big red flower handed by the maid and put it on Liu Xiu's neck and said, "Little brother, congratulations, you have become the top of this year's Divine Monkey Academy." ”

Liu Xiu was completely stunned, and when he came back to his senses, he couldn't help but be surprised: "Monkey Academy? Didn't I participate in the assessment of Luding Academy? How did it become the Monkey Academy?"

"What!Divine Monkey Academy?The most scummy department of the Falling Sword Sect?"

"We obviously signed up for the White Tiger Academy, how did we become the Monkey Academy?"

"Yes, I also remember that I signed up for the Yingxiong Academy assessment, why did it become the Monkey Academy in a blink of an eye?"

The faces of all the candidates changed greatly, and they began to talk loudly.

"Cough" A middle-aged man in a Confucian shirt with a goatee and starry eyes and sword eyebrows walked over, and said loudly in front of everyone: "The assessment location of the other four academies is in the lower reaches of the river, and the upstream is the territory of our Monkey Academy. ”

"Impossible! We are obviously within the scope of the examination of the Luding Academy, how could we run to the territory of the Divine Monkey Academy!" An examiner suddenly stood up and looked at the middle-aged man.

"Yes, this is absolutely impossible! Ah! That's right! The group of farmers! And the exam paper that has just filled in the answers! This is clearly for show, whether we pass the assessment or not, we will be admitted to the Monkey Academy!"

"Damn! We've been deceived! Let's go!" one of the examinees angrily flipped over the table and turned to leave.

"Who dares to go!" The middle-aged man came to the candidates with an arrow step, raised his internal strength and shattered his clothes, pulled out two long knives from his back and stared at the candidates with fierce eyes, "Those who flee will not be killed! Come if you want, leave if you want, what kind of place are you in my Monkey Academy!"

"You...... You're threatening the candidates, I'm ...... I'm going to ask my father to write a book for you!" said a personable boy with a folding fan.

"Boy!" The middle-aged man's eagle-like eyes stared straight at the young man, "I'm afraid you've forgotten where we are, right? This is the Falling Sword Sect! It's not the backyard of the dynasty!"

"Falling Sword Sect ......" The young boy suddenly realized something, and he broke out in a cold sweat, and involuntarily retreated to the team of candidates.

"Hmph!" the middle-aged man coldly glanced at the candidates who were silently bowing their heads and were silent, "Now I announce! You are all disciples of the Divine Monkey Academy! The opening date of our academy is set for three days, don't forget to report it then! Whoever dares not to come, don't blame me for being polite!"

"Definitely! Definitely!" the examinees sweated like rain and echoed one after another.

"In that case, then I will announce the top of this year's Monkey Academy!" the middle-aged man nodded with a smile, "He is...... Liu Xiu! He successfully deceived you from the other four academies to our Monkey Academy! His merits can be said to be the highest student since the founding of our Monkey Academy, and this academy has decided to set him at the top of the list, do you have no opinion?"

As soon as these words came out, all the candidates stared at Liu Xiu with red eyes and stared at Liu Xiu as if they were enemies of life and death, but they had no opinion on Liu becoming the top of the list, because every time the Sword Sect enrolled, the names of the top four academies and the top three would be revealed, so as the worst academy in the sect, after the name of the top of the list was announced, it was conceivable what kind of mockery storm would be caused, and it was definitely the best policy to enter the Monkey Academy in a low-key way.

"Congratulations! Liu Bangshou! You are the hope of our Monkey Academy!" The middle-aged man walked up to the petrified Liu Xiu, took out a blue booklet from his arms, handed it to him and said: "This is the top certificate written by the dean himself, according to the rules, the leader of the five academies should wear a big red flower and ride a high-headed horse around the city three times, are you ready?"

"Can you not be the top of the list?" asked Liu Xiumu.

"Can't!"

"That'...... Can I choose the best Western Regions BMW for my horse? I want to complete three laps before the top of the other four courtyards ride. ”

"This is no problem! After riding around the city three times, remember to participate in the 'top banquet' held by Liufu, the biggest patron of the sect's assessment, don't lose the face of our Monkey Academy, you know?"

Hearing this, Liu Xiu petrified again, "I'm already very tired, can I not go?"

"Yes, you can miss the top banquet by walking around the city three times, but I want to remind you that you missed the top banquet. I've lost a super prize!" the middle-aged man said and raised his eyebrows at Liu Xiu, "That prize is a treasure that the capital of the list wants!"

Liu Xiu shuddered at the thought that he was going to walk around the city on foot, so he hurriedly said, "Okay, I'll go!"
