Fantasy: Starting out as a gigolo, born a Confucian sage

The second practical assessment was no different from the original Dingzhou autumn examination, but the people were different.

Outside the Confucian Temple, countless people crowded around.

There are candidates and their families.

When Shen Wuming came here, he was still accompanied by many beauties.

Chu Youyi, Cao Juyu, Song Nanzhu, Pei Zian, Minghui, Su Xiaoxiao... and Cui Zu'e.

Different from before, Cui Zu'e came to Shen's house early in the morning.

He also brought breakfast to everyone, saying that their Cui family recently had a new chef from Jiangnan.

not bad.

It was hard for everyone to brush off her kindness.

Arriving outside the Confucian Temple, this scene did not cause as much shock as last time.

Everyone is used to it.

After all, since Shen Wuming dominated the gold list, everyone has given enough cheers and surprises.

The threshold is now raised.

"Here, Brother Haggard."

Wang Zhiwei is a fixed refresh NPC. As long as he queues up, he will always be in front.

The same is true today.

He came here a long time ago and lined up to take a seat. He waved and called Shen Wu over.

"You kid, don't you want to sleep?"

Shen Wuming patted his shoulder, looked at the two thick dark circles under his eyes, and said in surprise.

Wang Zhiwei smiled bitterly and said, "It's not that I won't sleep. I want to hold the Buddha's feet temporarily in the past two days."

"As a result, I took too many steps and pulled my balls. I almost went crazy."

"I guess this second actual battle will be quite rough, ugh..."

Having said this, Wang Zhiwei couldn't help but shook his head, inevitably feeling a little depressed.

According to the rules of the imperial examination, people will not be dismissed in the imperial examination, but only for ranking.

In other words, after passing the spring examination, all Gongshi will become Jinshi.

But whether it's first-, second-, or third-grade, it's hard to say.

Therefore, those who are able to reach this point should tighten their nerves. This is the most important battle in the imperial examination.

"fine."

Shen Wuming said with relief: "The second scene in the Confucian Temple does not necessarily require action. Many of them test one's character."

"As long as you stay upright and be conservative, you may not lose."

Wang Zhiwei clenched his fists and encouraged himself, "I'll listen to Brother Haggard."

Many of what Shen Wuming said were just for the occasion, but Wang Zhiwei didn't think so.

For example, the first scene before.

Shen Wuming gave them questions, and basically all of them were successful, including strategies.

It's just not that detailed, but it also mentions the content of military reform.

This alone has already defeated all the candidates, including Wang Zhiwei.

While the two were talking, Yang Yuanqing, Cui Kuan and others also arrived.

Even Wang Zhongshu and Fang Daoyuan came over to say hello, but they still joined in with the imperial students.

Most of the candidates who can make it this far will become officials in the court in the future.

There is no such thing as grouping, subjectively, but it may exist objectively.

Even though they were close to Shen Wuming, they still kept their distance in public.

"when!"

As a bell rang, everyone identified themselves and walked inside.

At the same time, you have to go through various tests, and you are not allowed to bring cheating tools, but it is just a formality.

After all, this is actual combat.

Everything including weapons can be carried, but the bouquet of flowers Shen Wuming held in his arms made the examiner very embarrassed.

"This doesn't seem to have anything to do with the exam, right?" The examiner looked confused and frowned slightly.

He wanted to stop it, but Shen Wuming didn't break the rules, but let it pass, it felt a little wrong.

"It's not a cheating thing. Is there anything I can't bring with me? Let him go."

At this time, an official from the Ministry of Rites came out and glared at the examining examiner.

The examiner hurriedly stepped away, and Shen Wuming cupped his hand, "Thank you, sir."

This man looked familiar, but he didn't seem to have any previous dealings with him.

The adult quickly apologized and said with a smile, "I'm just doing things according to the rules. Why should Mr. Shen say thank you?"

"We said goodbye to Dingzhou last time..."

The examiner recounted a few words, and Shen Wuming then remembered that this was the examiner who accompanied him to the toilet in the Dingzhou examination room last time.

It seems like the surname is Yang?

Feeling familiar, Shen Wuming started to line up again inside. In front of him was the famous Confucian Temple.

This is the largest Confucian temple in the world.

Regardless of the four countries or foreign races, Confucian people all respect this Confucian Temple.

However, looking at its scale, it is not much different from the one encountered in Dingzhou, but it is more ancient.

In particular, there was a sense of awe-inspiring righteousness in the air, which made the Confucian monks feel relaxed and happy.

But if a pagan were exposed to this aura, he would probably vomit three liters of blood on the spot.

"Let's get started."

When everyone entered, Master Cui Anshi walked to the front and made an announcement without any nonsense.

Immediately afterwards, the examiner arranged for the first candidate to enter.

Compared with the performance of Dingzhou candidates, this one was extremely eye-catching.

Any candidate can easily climb to the second floor.

Even those who climbed to the third floor were not few.

And on average, each floor only takes half an hour, which is very fast.

Soon it was Shen Wuming's turn, and everyone cheered up and looked at him.

Shen Wuming dominates the gold list, no matter what, this one will not be too disappointing.

His performance in Dingzhou has been discovered by everyone.

This is the fifth floor!

Shen Wuming stepped in and was about to have a big fight when he was suddenly enveloped by a black jade-like light.

The world spun around, and the next moment, he appeared in front of the many statues on the fifth floor.

"What's going on?"

The candidates on the periphery all widened their eyes. Some people were planning to help Shen Wuming keep time.

As a result, they saw that as soon as he entered the door, the entire Confucian Temple was lit up, reaching the fifth floor.

"What is going on?"

Everyone looked at each other. How can they play when they encounter such a cheat?

"This..."

Teacher Cui's pupils also shrank slightly. He has never encountered such a step since ancient times.

Even if there is a master of the Imperial Academy helping behind the scenes, it is impossible to interfere with the fairness of the Confucian Temple assessment.

This is a system controlled solely by the spirit of the Confucian Temple, and it will not be controlled by the outside world.

"It seems that the investment in this little guy needs to be increased to a greater extent."

Cui Anshi closed his eyes slightly, but a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

"What is going on?" Yang Yuanqing was also stunned. He knew that Shen Wuming was awesome.

But is this kind of thing beyond everyone's understanding still too bizarre?

Cui Kuan and Wei Xiaowen also shook their heads, but Wang Zhiwei looked as if it was a matter of course.

"According to Brother Haggard's level, even if he takes the test, it would just be a waste of time."

"Going directly to the fifth floor of the Confucian Temple is worthy of his talent."

As soon as this was said, the candidates around nodded again and again, and no one stood up to refute.
