Chapter 74: Examination Tricks (asking for votes)
Imperial Examination,
You have a way, and ten thousand people cross a wooden bridge.
That is the liberal arts examination. In fact, the martial arts examination is too demanding on hard core strength and has an age limit.
Therefore, there will not be too many people participating in the assessment each time.
Judgment test.
The next step is to obtain an official status, which can be said to be a brighter future. Taking a step back, the average martial artist is actually in his early twenties when he reaches the Bone Training Pass, and is actually only more than ten years away from the age limit of forty.
Dingtian participated ten times.
This does not include the warriors participating in the assessment, who may be injured during the test.
The examination for martial arts examinations is much more stringent than that for martial arts scholars.
Moreover, every warrior who passes the previous exam can challenge the top ten warriors.
As long as you can defeat the opponent, you can replace the opponent's ranking.
So, whoever passes the martial arts exam has not experienced more than a dozen challenges.
Because of this, the battle will become extremely fierce.
The challenged martial artist can only use fierce means to fight the challenge, in order to have a chance to make the challengers behind him feel timid, thereby reducing the number of times he is challenged.
After all, no one can guarantee whether he will be defeated due to continuous battles and subsequent failures.
So, it’s time to stand up!
It makes people afraid and dare not come up to challenge.
"Fang Yue from Daliushu Village came to take the exam, and his guarantor is Zhang Boyang, a martial arts examiner."
It was Fang Yue's turn soon after he reported his place of origin and guarantor.
The official marked it on the list for confirmation, and then Zhang Boyang, the guarantor not far away, followed suit.
After the whole process, the time of burning incense has passed.
Soon, a small official came over to lure Fang Yue in.
The Xiahe County Guards Barracks is surrounded by brick and stone walls. There is a large school field inside, and there are rows of houses not far away.
The windows of these houses have been removed and separated into two examination rooms.
In the school grounds, there are more than ten stone lions, each of different sizes.
This is the first level of today's martial arts examination, lifting stones.
The smallest stone lion weighs exactly one thousand two hundred kilograms.
Going up, each stone lion weighs fifty kilograms more than the one in front.
A total of eighty-seven people came to examine the martial arts candidates, which was similar to what Fang Yue had heard before.
Most of them are obviously in their thirties, and maybe the children in the family can play soy sauce.
It can be seen from this that the difficulty of martial arts practice is not only the huge Xiahe County, but also the surrounding more than ten towns and its subordinate villages.
There are hundreds of thousands of people in total, but how many people can practice martial arts to the third level of forging bones before the age of forty.
That's it, a large part of those who came to take the martial arts examination this time were not here for the first time.
Soon.
Gongs and drums sounded.
The Xiahe County Martial Arts Examination has officially begun.
Fang Yue received his number plate, 'Ding Twelve', from the invigilator, and then began to wait in the crowd.
In the martial arts examination, the first thing to be assessed is stone lifting, stone lifting, and after stone lifting, archery, equestrian skills, and martial arts.
After completing these four subjects, the rankings will be determined.
Of course, we only rank in the top ten, and then comes the most important assessment, the test.
"Team D comes out."
"Start, lift the stone!"
Hearing these words, Fang Yue followed the warriors from the same team out.
We came to the stone lion in the center of the venue.
These stone lions range from 1,200 kilograms to the heaviest at 3,000 kilograms.
Fang Yue has not tested his strength recently, but according to the figures from the past few days, 2,500 to 600 pounds is definitely no problem.
However, this value is already the strength of an ordinary bone-forging master, and does not meet Fang Yue's current cultivation level in the early stages of bone-forging.
So, he directly chose a stone lion weighing 2,200 kilograms.
In previous tests conducted by teams A and B, basically most of the strength was around 18,000 kilograms, and not many could reach 2,000 kilograms.
And there are only four people who weigh 2,500 kilograms.
Two thousand two hundred pounds is not high, but it is still above average.
~~~~~~
“This tea is good this year, where did you buy it?”
On the Minglou on the side of the school ground, Liu Zheng was sitting on the highest floor , overlooking the entire examination room.
Here, you can see the warriors who are lifting stones to test, and you can also see the scholars on the other side who are still entering the field.
"This is sent by Master Zheng of the White Tiger Military Attachment. Mr. Zheng of the White Tiger Boxing Gym has taken care of all the tea drinking during today's examination." The official who was in charge of the Yamen account hurriedly said sympathetically.
"White Tiger Boxing Gym is really interested. Oh, by the way, how many people from White Tiger Boxing Gym participated in the assessment this year?" Liu Zheng asked after taking a sip of tea.
"There is only one person." The official next to him quickly replied.
Liu Zheng nodded, and immediately ordered the official next to him to bring him the roster of Fang Yue who participated in the assessment at the White Tiger Boxing Gym.
He was going to see how the candidates from the White Tiger Boxing Gym were participating in the assessment this time. If possible, he wouldn't mind giving the other party a chance to get rich.
Then, you can legitimately discuss the next business with the White Tiger Boxing Gym.
Nowadays, the Wei Dynasty has been established for hundreds of years, and the official atmosphere is no longer as good as it was during the founding of the country.
Although the current emperor of the Wei Dynasty intends to rectify the situation, there are many obstacles. In fact, as long as it is not too excessive.
The imperial examination may not be immune to fraud.
If it is not valuable enough, it can only be used in martial arts, equestrian and other subjects.
In the final test, there is nothing you can do.
Without real materials, you will definitely not be able to cope with the more challenging challenges.
However, that has nothing to do with him.
Insufficient strength brings humiliation to oneself.
Similar to this, we are not afraid of investigation. It is common in every prefecture and county. "It's not enough. If Fang Yue's grades are too poor, we have no choice but to give up."
Liu Zheng looked at the roster. Fang Yue is not very old. He is nineteen years old this year.
The Wu scholar who was admitted last year has already started to strengthen his bones this year.
This level of cultivation is good, but it is a bit early to take the martial arts exam.
After all, if you polish it for two more years, you will have to exercise all the bones in your body before you come back.
Then you will be more confident, and maybe you will have the strength to win the championship.
"Master Liu, Group D's stone lifting test has begun." The official next to him reminded.
Fang Yue is in the Ding group.
Immediately afterwards, Liu Zheng looked at the school grounds through the window.
Fang Yue was quickly found through the physical description in the booklet. After all, several other people participating in the assessment were older.
Fang Yue, who is younger and looks a bit green, can be recognized at a glance.
"Two thousand two hundred catties, which is above average, is okay."
Wen Wu is the first.
Wu Wu is second.
The martial arts examination is not as advanced as the civil examination. If you want to help people engage in fraud for personal gain, you actually need candidates to have a level no lower than the average.
Otherwise, once you try it, your secret will be revealed.
Isn’t this true?
Only martial arts, equestrian and other subjects are available for convenience.
For example, in Wu Ce, the score depends entirely on the examiner. It is normal to give a few more points.
Equestrian can arrange docile and good horses for the opponent, so that good results can be achieved.
All of these have opportunities.
Since Liu Zheng was interested, he immediately signaled his confidants to make arrangements.
The officials under him were just about to leave. Liu Zheng seemed to have thought of something, and then suddenly stopped him:
"Is this more from Daliushu Village?"
"Yes, he is from Daliushu Village."
Liu Zheng nodded and waved his hand to let the confidant leave.
Then, he looked at Fang Yue who had finished lifting the stone and was about to take part in the next assessment.
The corner of Liu Zheng's mouth raised slightly. If he remembered correctly, Chen Chengan seemed to have disappeared in the forest near Daliushu Village.
Also disappeared together with the secret book of Qi sensing.
...
On this side, Fang Yue followed the examiner to the shooting range on the other side of the school ground to start the bow shooting assessment.
Nine-stone bow used for assessment.
That is, it takes one thousand six hundred and twenty kilograms of strength to pull it open.
If you want to use it freely, your strength must be at least 1,800 kilograms.
This is not difficult for Fang Yue.
He has enough strength and hunts all year round. The bow shooting test is a score test.
Sure enough, he got an A grade in this test.
Among dozens of people, he ranked fifth.
~~~~~~
At the same time, Yudai was by the river.
Li Xiangjun sat on the railing and played a tune.
"What's wrong with sister Lian'er? Why are you so restless today?"
Li Xiangjun naturally has his merits in becoming one of the oirans of Yihong Tower.
Her skin is better than snow, and she has a natural and elegant body fragrance that makes people linger.
At this moment, this beautiful woman's shoulders were half exposed, and she looked at the enchanted maid in front of her with a half-smile.
"Do you miss your lover again? Do you wonder why he didn't come today? Haha, I've already asked about it. That little friend is taking part in the martial arts examination today."
“ Tsk tsk, I didn’t expect him to be a martial arts scholar. But don’t worry, you can’t let someone like him get the upper hand. I’ve already found someone to teach him a lesson on the school field.”
Li Xiangjun smiled with his own charm. .
But her words made the girl named Lian'er become anxious: "Sister, no, you can't do this!"
"Haha, it's nothing, just protect me. Sister is joking with you. How can I find someone to deal with a martial arts scholar."
"Really?"
"Of course it's true, it really can't be true anymore!"
~~~~~~
At the same time, in Daliushu Village.
In the Fang family yard.
“Counting the time, it’s going to snow. When Xie left, she didn’t bring any thick clothes, and she didn’t know whether it would be cold or not.”
Ms. Chen had something to wear but nothing to wear. peeling walnuts.
The nuts fell into the basket next to them one by one.
"Mom, I have already told Uncle Fuquan that we will wait until Brother X comes back before we can do anything else."
At this time, Fang Cheng came back from outside. When I saw the walnuts peeled by Mrs. Chen, I grabbed a handful and stuffed them into my mouth.
"Huh? Put it down quickly. Whoever lets you eat it will peel it off for your brother."
Ms. Chen was furious and raised his hand to beat him up. Fangcheng.
But thinking that her eldest son was going to get married soon, and he would be an adult after getting married, she couldn't continue to lecture him like this.
Mothers always teach their sons that they will never grow up and their family will not be strong.
"Just this once, if you want to eat again, peel it yourself."
"Hey, mother, I won't eat it and leave it to my brother." Fang Cheng touched his head and put down the nuts in his hand. , said with a smile.
"Huh, if I tell you to eat, you will eat. When you are full, hurry to the entrance of the village to bring your father back."
Counting the time, Fang Yue will be back soon.
So, these days, Mrs. Chen asked Fang's father and Fang Cheng, who were still alive, to take turns waiting for Fang Yue at the entrance of the village.
"Hey, I got it, mother."
